Naruto: My setting is above yours.

"I'll do my best!"

With a reminder, Ye Cang opened his arms, and immediately above each of his palms floated a fireball that was orange-red on the outside and blazing white on the inside.

Then two fireballs roared out simultaneously, heading straight for the Wind-Riding Mystic Horse on the opposite side.

Upon seeing this, Xuanma immediately raised his hand and formed a hand seal.

After three seals, he opened his mouth and spat out water, which gushed out and swirled around him.

Water Escape-Water Formation Wall!

Boom! Sizzle!

When water and fire collide, thick steam immediately rises.

"He's actually skilled in water-based techniques!"

Ye Cang was secretly surprised, because the information she knew about the Wind-Riding Mystic Horse did not include water escape techniques.

As the moisture dissipated, the water flowing around Xuanma quickly dispersed into droplets and then completely disappeared.

Xuanma stretched out his arms forward, then brought them back together in prayer position.

Water escape - water rushes into waves!

Water droplets quickly appeared around him, instantly converging into a stream of water that swirled rapidly upwards, increasing in volume until it reached a height of over ten meters in the blink of an eye.

"Such powerful chakra!"

Yekura was surprised again.

She had fought with the Hidden Mist Village and seen many Water Release ninjas, but very few could create such a large amount of water in a waterless environment.

Moreover, this ninjutsu, Wind-Riding Genma, doesn't involve directly spitting out water from his mouth.

In this way, even when casting a spell, one is protected and is not afraid of being ambushed at close range while still charging up power.

She had never seen such a water-style ninjutsu even among the Mist Ninja who were skilled in water-style techniques.

Seeing that the water was already hundreds of meters high, Ye Cang immediately raised his hand and instantly condensed four fireballs.

Then she waved her arms, and four fireballs flew and circled around her, transforming from fireballs into ribbons that merged together, expanding rapidly and sweeping outwards like a sea of ​​fire.

Scorching Escape - Over-Steam Kill!

At the same time, a deafening roar erupted as a massive torrent of water crashed down from the sky, forming a hundred-meter waterfall. The drop created a raging torrent that rushed towards Yecang at an extremely fast speed.

Water and fire collided again with a deafening roar, sending billowing water vapor soaring into the sky.

The continuous flow of water, concealed by the moisture, rapidly tore through the outward-spreading flames, heading straight for the core of the leaf silo.

"It's been breached!"

Ye Cang was astonished; this was the first time someone had used Water Release to such an extent.

She immediately dodged the oncoming water flow, and after landing on the water's surface, she used the mist to her advantage and rushed towards the Wind-Riding Black Horse.

Yecang had realized that his Blazing Release was no match for Yufeng Genma's Water Release, so he had to engage in close combat to prevent Yufeng Genma from having time to form hand seals and use Water Release.

However, she had only rushed a short distance when the water flowed back.

And a second wave of water was also coming from the front.

"Amazing control!"

Yecang leaped again, and the two streams of water collided beneath her, splashing water everywhere.

Having dodged the attack, Yecang, who landed on the water's surface, clearly felt the water flow speed decrease significantly, but the water vapor had already dissipated, and the Wind-Riding Black Horse had disappeared from sight.

"where is it?"

Ye Cang's gaze swept around, then he suddenly looked down.

The next moment, several streams of water rose up, binding Yekura's body like ropes, but then a fireball destroyed the water.

Yekura's figure flickered repeatedly as she quickly left the water's surface. Then, she clasped her hands together, condensing a large amount of chakra into a giant fireball.

The fireball rapidly expanded, transforming into a sea of ​​fire that engulfed the entire waterway.

hiss hiss hiss~

The intense heat quickly evaporated the water.

Looking at the billowing steam, Yekura gasped for breath.

Just then, a hand patted her on the shoulder.

Ye Cang froze, then slowly turned his head and saw Genma standing with one hand in his pocket.

"you……"

Ye Cang was taken aback: "Is that a clone in the water?"

"But I couldn't detect your true form at all."

There was an open space around, with nothing to cover their bodies.

Genma smiled and said, "I turned into stone."

His transformation technique is so subtle that only a highly perceptive ninja can detect it.

Genma reached out and helped Yekura up, saying, "The Scorching Release is indeed quite good. The temperature is higher than that of ordinary Fire Release, and the form can be controlled more freely."

Of course, it is obviously inferior to Kagutsuchi with the Sharingan.

Ye Cang shook his head and said, "I'm far inferior to you. You suppressed me with just water jutsu."

Genma smiled and said, "Water and fire are mutually exclusive. My chakra reserves are greater than yours, so of course I should use Water Release instead of Wood Release."

Of course, he was also using Yekura's Scorching Release to test the results of his recent Water Release training.

So far, it's not bad.

Genma also had a rough idea of ​​Yekura's strength.

He's definitely an elite Jonin, but he's still a bit short of Kage level.

When encountering a water-style ninja with a large volume of water, they are easily countered.

For example, people like Kisame and the Fifth Mizukage.

Of course, even in Kirigakure, there aren't many masters of water-style techniques.

Otherwise, Kirigakure wouldn't hate Pakura so much, and they certainly wouldn't use her as a bargaining chip in peace talks.

It is evident that there are very few Water Release ninjas in Kirigakure who can defeat Pakura.

To be honest, Pakura's chakra reserves are not small. Genma estimates that she would be rated at least 7 out of 10, which is stronger than Kakashi at his peak in the original timeline.

At the age of twenty-one, his physical strength has not yet reached its peak.

Do you know what kind of technique I've been developing lately?

Xuanma asked Ye Cang.

Yecang looked towards the forest, where booming sounds could be heard from time to time.

Xuanma shook his head: "I didn't mean that."

"To be more specific, it should be bloodline limit."

Yekura was stunned: "Bloodline Limit? Don't you already have Wood Release?"

Xuanma raised his chin: "How could a genius like me only have one bloodline limit?"

"You've fought against the Mist Ninja, so you know about the Hozuki clan, right?"

Ye Cang nodded and said, "I know. They possess the Water Transformation Technique, which allows them to transform their bodies into water to become immune to physical attacks. Even Fire Release techniques are not very effective against them."

Genma's body crackled with lightning chakra, and he said, "I'm developing a similar technique!"

What powerful lightning release!

Ye Cang's pupils dilated sharply; she sensed that Yu Feng Genma's lightning release was stronger than his water release.

It's rumored that he possesses the same Lightning Release as the Third Raikage, and it turns out it's true!

But what does this have to do with the water-transforming technique?

Ye Cang's mind raced, and she quickly understood, exclaiming in surprise, "You want to make your body electrified with lightning?"

Xuanma nodded.

Ye Cang then realized: "You mean, I can also develop in this direction?"

Genma deactivated his Lightning Release Chakra Mode and snapped his fingers: "That's right."

"By transforming your body into flames, you will not only be immune to physical attacks, but you will also gain the ability to fly."

"This can greatly enhance your current strength."

This is the development direction that Genma can currently think of that is most suitable for Yekura.

Moreover, since Yekura possesses the Scorching Release bloodline limit, this power is already rooted in her physical genes, so developing it might be easier for her than for him.

Ye Cang was very interested, but frowned: "This is indeed a very good development direction, but I have absolutely no ideas."

"The Hozuki clan is also very troublesome. I have killed many Kirigakure ninja, but none of them were from the Hozuki clan."

Upon hearing this, Genma couldn't help but say, "If I have the chance, I'll capture a member of the Hozuki clan to study."

"A corpse is fine too."

Yecang gave Yufeng Genma a strange look, then said, "Kigakure will launch a war against the Land of Fire sooner or later."

Xuanma nodded: "So we need to be prepared."

"Although I haven't fully developed the Lightning Transformation Technique yet, I've already gained some insights."

"I can teach you this; it should be of some help to you."

Ye Cang was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "Thank you, Lord Genma!"

Xuanma nodded slightly, then said, "Let's begin!"

Developing bloodline limits is not that simple.

Moreover, he has not given up on the path of energy-matter conversion. He has discussed this with Tobirama Senju in the last two days and has made some progress.
