Mizukage's Pokémon Ninja Scroll

Chapter 569 The Weak Begone

In the sky, two blazing suns, one large and one small, relentlessly scorched the earth.

The circular arena, constructed entirely of thick, massive ice walls, resembled a cold prison, gleaming with a chilling light under the blazing sun.

Inside the arena, the two sides stood in their respective positions.

One side consisted of an elite force composed of the four major ninja villages, with a dozen Jonin leading more than two hundred Chunin and Genin in neat formation.

Having recovered from the shock of witnessing the Mizukage's strength, many people now had tense and indignant expressions in their eyes.

On the other side, there was only Kisame Hoshigaki.

But at this moment, his face was filled with barely suppressed excitement. He crossed his arms and grinned as he surveyed all the ninjas in front of him.

The leaders of the six major ninja villages, including Yahiko, looked at the obviously unequal positions below with different expressions.

Among those present, it was probably only the assassins from Kirigakure who all wore expressions of excitement.

The rather unconventional Hozuki Shingetsu, seeing Kisame Hoshigaki stealing the spotlight, wished he could jump off the ice wall and take Kisame's place in this battle to prove himself.

Seeing that no one else seemed inclined to speak, Tachibana Kanagawa stepped forward and called out to Kisame Hoshigaki below.

"Kisame! Hold back a bit, these are your future subordinates, don't kill too many of them~"

After saying that, Tachibana Kenkawa gave some instructions to Mei Terumi and Zabuza behind her.

"When those unlucky guys down there lose their fighting ability, remember to help pull them up."

When Jianchuan Ju said this, he made no attempt to lower his voice. Not only the other four Kage standing next to him, but also many of the ninjas from the four villages below looked uneasy.

However, since the purpose of this trip was to establish authority, Jianchuan Ju didn't care about what others thought. After giving these two instructions, he directly took over the referee's work and spoke loudly.

Let's begin!

Hearing his Mizukage announce the start of the battle, Kisame Hoshigaki forcibly suppressed his extreme excitement.

He gave a rather unpleasant smile to the two hundred-plus ninjas who were already in a defensive posture in front of him.

Then, he gently grasped a rather odd-looking pink feather pendant hanging around his neck with his right hand.

Bring your hands together in front of your body.

A large amount of Sage Chakra immediately poured into Kisame Hoshigaki's body from the gem on the pendant. At the same time, the strangely shaped pink feather was constantly driving the surrounding natural energy to merge with the chakra in Kisame Hoshigaki's body.

Three horns appeared on his head, and pink masks appeared around his eyes at the same time.

Before anyone else could react to what was happening, Kisame Hoshigaki had already quickly entered Sage Mode.

Of the ninjas from other villages present, only a very few recognized the changes that had occurred in Kisame Hoshigaki.

"This is... Sage Mode!!"

Minato Namikaze was the first to exclaim in surprise, his mind reeling as he looked at Kisame Hoshigaki in the arena.

"Lord Minato, you don't actually believe that Sage Mode is a skill only contractors from the three holy lands can master, do you?"

The teasing voice of Tachibana Kenkawa reached his ears, and Minato Namikaze's expression changed rapidly.

He knew the Sage Mode ability better than anyone.

Since the First Hokage passed away, only he and his teacher Jiraiya have mastered this ability in the entire Hidden Leaf Village.

Even his exceptionally talented uncle, Orochimaru, never learned this move from Ryuchi Cave.

I only managed to learn it by a narrow margin.

In reality, only Jiraiya was truly able to use it with ease.

Now, we've actually seen a completely different Sage Mode on a Hidden Mist ninja!

How could Minato Namikaze not be shocked by this?

However, regardless of what Minato Namikaze was thinking.

After entering Sage Mode, Kisame Hoshigaki below saw that the opposing ninjas were still only on guard and no one made the first move.

He immediately grinned.

"I'm in!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Kisame Hoshigaki charged into the midst of more than two hundred ninjas like a cannonball.

The crowd instantly erupted into chaos.

Kisame Hoshigaki didn't draw the flounder behind him; instead, he kept throwing punches while dodging and weaving.

The Sage Mode offers users a comprehensive upgrade.

It's not just a simple enhancement of ninjutsu.

Speed, strength, perception—Kisame Hoshigaki has far surpassed his normal abilities in every aspect at this moment.

There wasn't a single person in the crowd who could withstand a single blow from him.

Even a few experienced ninjas can anticipate and parry in advance.

However, under Kisame Hoshigaki's immense strength, they were all instantly blasted away.

At this moment, Kisame Hoshigaki was like a runaway bulldozer, leaving chaos and destruction in his wake.

Countless ninjas coughed up blood and flew backward on the spot.

Even this was the result only after he intentionally held back his strength.

Otherwise, with Kisame's current speed and power, he could easily turn those weak Chunin and Genin into mincemeat with a single punch.

Mei Terumi and Zabuza, positioned above the ice wall, were relentlessly trying to pull people out.

Before those blasted away by Kisame Hoshigaki crashed into the ice wall and suffered secondary damage, they were rescued and taken away from the scene.

The tentacles of the tailed beast's cloak and the long whip formed from the flow of water were already dancing so fast that they left afterimages.

"Everyone spread out! Jonin and below, provide cover on the perimeter!!"

Huang Tu, who had previously fought Kisame Hoshigaki, was shocked that Kisame's strength could improve even further.

But having already experienced facing a ferocious beast, he quickly calmed down and gave a loud order to the other ninjas.

Those Chunin and Genin, although they may not be very strong, are generally good fighters from their respective villages when they are selected to join the Maintenance Force.

Although Kisame's sudden and violent intrusion disrupted their rhythm.

However, once the order was given, they immediately dispersed. Even those ninjas who were not from Iwagakure did not choose to disobey Huang Tu's command.

The remaining Jonin, after the others withdrew, quickly attacked Kisame Hoshigaki's surroundings.

"Boring!"

Seeing that the other ninjas had regained their rhythm, Kisame Hoshigaki let out a disdainful snort.

However, faced with the overwhelming barrage of shuriken and ninjutsu attacks that followed, Kisame Hoshigaki did not choose to dodge or continue chasing into the crowd.

Although, with his current speed, he was perfectly capable of continuing to eliminate the weak by relying on close combat and using his ninja body as cover.

However, this approach was clearly not in line with the orders that Tachibana Kenkawa had given him before he came.

Kisame Hoshigaki stood motionless, completely ignoring the fierce attacks around him, and began to rapidly form hand seals with his hands clasped together.

Then, to the horrified eyes of all the attacking ninjas...

"Immortal Technique*Water Release*Big Explosive Water Wave!"
