Starting from the roots of Konoha, they were the masterminds behind the scenes.

Chapter 124 The Death of Hanzo, A Wise Man! (Please Subscribe and Vote)

Although he defeated Hanzo, Hoshino Shu did not feel a sense of satisfaction.

He had a lot of information about Hanzo, while Hanzo only had a superficial understanding of him.

Before Hoshino could exert any force, Hanzo collapsed.

But is Hanzo really that weak?

He is not weak.

His swordsmanship is top-notch, his body-flickering technique is top-notch, his water-style techniques are top-notch, and his fire-style techniques are not bad either.

There is also a highly toxic substance that can suppress most people.

However, the deadly poison was completely neutralized by Xingxiaxiu's immunity to all poisons.

The salamander was killed by Hoshino Hideaki using an information gap, depriving Hanzo of a major ally.

His swordsmanship is inferior to Hanzo's, his body-flickering technique is also far inferior to Hanzo's, his water style is inferior, and his fire style is inferior.

However, he possesses top-tier Wind Release skills, unparalleled strength, and an indestructible body that makes him immune to most physical attacks.

Hanzo did not have a clear grasp of this intelligence.

If we disregard intelligence factors, in terms of their conventional strength, each of them actually has an advantage.

Before entering Sage Mode, it will take some effort for Hoshino Shu to completely defeat Hanzo.

Unfortunately, intelligence is an extremely important factor in ninja battles.

In terms of intelligence gathering, Hanzo was far behind.

"Hanzo truly deserves the title of demigod. No Kage from any of the five great ninja villages could defeat him."

"Unfortunately, the difference between a demigod and a god of ninjas is the difference between a regular ninja and a cheat-like character."

After reviewing the battle and analyzing it, Xingxia Xiu determined that the demigod was still within the normal range.

Within the realm of conventional wisdom, Hanzo is indeed one of the most outstanding figures in the ninja world.

But he's cheating!

At this moment, Hanzo looked up at Hoshino-shita Shuu, his expression extremely complicated.

He lost!

This was unexpected.

This young man is very capable!

and……

"It looks like you weren't using your full strength."

Hanzo noticed the fleeting look of disappointment on Hoshino's face.

Xingxia Xiu remained noncommittal: "I admire your abilities, and I also see many of my own shortcomings."

"I gained a lot from this battle."

Not only did they see many shortcomings in their own combat, but they also raised their attention to intelligence to a new level.

Therefore, some cards can remain hidden and there's no rush to reveal them.

Drawing his sword, Hoshino looked at Hanzo and asked, "Does Your Excellency have any last words?"

He had no intention of keeping Hanzo.

Such a person is difficult to control, and on the other hand, he is currently in a state of life-or-death struggle.

Hanzo must die!

As for what to do after Hanzo dies, Hoshino doesn't care.

Today is destined for Xingxia Xiu to rise to power by stepping on Hanzo, the demigod of the ninja world!

Hanzo was taken aback when Hoshino tried to kill him. His pupils contracted for a moment before he regained his composure: "I have no regrets about dying at the hands of a strongman like you."

"If I have any last words... please let the Land of Rain return to peace as soon as possible!"

"Under the protection of the Great Ninja Village, things might be better."

After saying this, Hanzo closed his eyes and offered his neck for execution.

"I'll do my best!"

After saying this, Hoshino swung his sword. The blade, imbued with wind chakra, was incredibly sharp and grazed Hanzo's neck. It took a while for blood to seep out from the almost invisible cut.

Because the knife was so fast and sharp, Hanzo didn't feel much pain.

Demigod Hanzo the Salamander, dead!

……

To show respect for the strong, Hoshino Hide did not remove Hanzo's head. Instead, he secured it by wrapping vines around Hanzo's neck, and with one hand, he lifted Hanzo's corpse out of the tree world and stepped into the air.

"Hanzo is dead!"

Hoshino's voice rang out, drowning out the sounds of battle.

One by one, figures looked up at the sky, and the battle gradually came to a halt.

"impossible!"

Yu Yuren found it hard to believe.

Even Tsunade and the others were shocked at this moment.

Hoshino Hide's figure fell from the sky, and with one hand raised, vines grew from the ground and assembled into a coffin, into which Hanzo's body was placed.

"Believe it or not, come and see for yourselves!"

Hoshino's icy gaze swept over each Rain Ninja: "I'll give you a chance."

"If anyone insists on continuing to fight, I will gladly send him to the Pure Land to join Hanzo."

From within the rain-soaked forest, someone emerged and approached the coffin.

He is Kuro Amane, a Jonin of the Rain Village. Hoshino Hideshige once cooperated with him to fight against the Iwa Ninja.

He knelt down on one knee in the darkness and reached out to touch Hanzo's corpse.

correct!

Hei Yu looked up, utterly shocked, at Xingxia Xiu.

This guy really killed Lord Hanzo!

And this is in a one-on-one situation.

This……

Even though he already knew that Hoshinobi had killed the Four-Tails Jinchuriki of Iwagakure and inherited the Wood Release power of the God of Shinobi, that was the powerful demigod Hanzo!

After the initial shock, Hei Yu lowered her head and knelt on both knees before the coffin: "Lord Hanzo..."

In an instant, the rain-soaked ninjas lost their composure, having lost their greatest source of strength.

Then the ninja swords and other weapons fell to the ground.

More and more Rain Ninjas walked up to the coffin, looked at Hanzo's body, and then knelt down.

The numerous Konoha ninja looked at each other in bewilderment.

The latest novel is first published here!

Tsunade and the other two exchanged glances and smiled.

The war with the Rain Ninja is about to end!

Looking at the kneeling Rain Ninja, Hoshino Hide spoke loudly: "Lord Hanzo left behind his last words before his death."

"I hope the Land of Rain will return to peace as soon as possible."

"I agree."

Black Rain then stood up: "What do you intend to do, sir?"

The other Rain Ninjas all stood up and looked at Hoshino Shuu.

Hoshinoshige glanced at Kuroyu and said, "You all surrender to Konoha, and then go to various places to persuade your other comrades to surrender."

"I can assure you that Konoha will not hold anything against what happened before."

Many Rain Ninja secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then Kuroyu spoke up again: "We can surrender to Konoha."

"But we only surrender to Your Majesty."

"We only trust your promises."

"At the same time, we need your protection!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Ren stirred up a commotion.

Suddenly, someone shouted, "Black Rain, are you going to betray the village?"

idiot!

Black Rain cursed under his breath, then shouted, "Lord Hanzo is dead! Who can lead the village now?"

"Who can lead the village to defend against the other ninja villages?"

"Sanchuan, are you sure you can do it?"

Mikawa is a loudmouth and also a Jonin (high-ranking ninja).

Upon hearing Hei Yu's loud shout, his expression immediately changed.

Xingxia Xiu gave Hei Yu a deep look.

This guy is very clear-headed.

Without Hanzo, Amegakure has no deterrent effect whatsoever against the major ninja villages.

The Land of Rain will become an unclaimed public bus, where anyone can get on, get on, and leave as they please.

In particular, internal strife will arise in Amegakure, as there is no one to unite the village, and it will only fall apart.

Whether or not they have integrated into Konoha is another matter.

However, it is entirely possible to temporarily unite the forces of Amegakure by borrowing the power of Konoha.

As someone who killed Hanzo, he was undoubtedly a very good choice.

However, with such a clever person around, Xingxia Xiu could save a lot of effort. He immediately said, "Heiyu, you take him to all directions and persuade the others to surrender."

"At that time, I can lead you to stop the invasion of Iwagakure."

Hei Yu breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this and quickly bowed, "Thank you, Your Excellency!"

He immediately selected several small teams to serve as persuasion teams to encourage surrender.

As Hanzo's confidant and a Jonin, he held considerable prestige.

On the other side, Hoshino Hide gestured to Tsunade and the others.

Konoha also dispatched several small teams, along with the Rain Ninja, to various locations.

Tsunade and the others also sent someone to report to Mitokado Homura.

After making all the arrangements, Tsunade and the other two looked at Hoshino-shita Shuu.

"Xiu, what's next?"

Tsunade asked, "The Iwa ninja should receive news of the Rain ninja's defeat soon."

Given the current situation, there must be quite a few Iwa ninja spies on the battlefield.

Now that Konoha is recruiting people from all sides, it's impossible to keep the news a secret.
