This Water Shadow is very strong, but overly cautious.

When in the misty area, he could only lie in Ryosuke's arms and blame himself.

And just now, the trust that Ryosuke showed in her when he entrusted her with the task.

All of this made Mei Terumi determined to win this battle, even if it meant risking her own life! !

She slowly reached her hand to her chest and stroked the cold necklace around her neck.

For a moment, Mei Terumi even felt that her thin body had become much heavier.

This weight comes from the trust entrusted by Mizunoe Ryosuke.

Chapter 122: The situation takes a turn for the worse

In the ninja world, there are always some people who are called "geniuses". These talented ninjas have been able to show their talents at a young age.

They possess ninja talents that are difficult for ordinary people to achieve, and powerful talents will allow these talented ninjas to go further.

There is no doubt that Mei Terumi is also a ninja who bears the title of genius.

Although she came from a humble background, she was born with four natural attributes, which few in the entire ninja world could match.

According to the original trajectory, Mei Terumi succeeded as the fifth Mizukage after the "Blood Mist Village" led by Yagura Karatachi.

All these things undoubtedly demonstrate the excellence of Mei Terumi.

This is a talented ninja with a bright future, and he will inevitably develop to heights that ordinary people can hardly reach.

At the moment, the fledgling Terumi Mei has not yet been able to turn her talent into strength.

Staring at the opponent in front of her, Mei Terumi raised her level of vigilance to the highest level.

Before going on stage, based on previous observations and the opponent's physical characteristics, Mei Terumi already had a rough idea of ​​her opponent's style.

These cat ninjas who practice Yang-tun must be proficient in close combat.

So no matter what, Mei Terumi must avoid close combat with her opponent.

Soon, the battle officially began.

The moment the battle began, without any hesitation, Terumi Mei quickly retreated and adopted a mobile fighting approach.

And just as Terumi had thought, as soon as the battle started, the ninja cat on the opposite side quickly approached Terumi Mei, intending to engage in close combat.

As it approached Mei Terumi, its sharp claws popped out from its paw pads.

Unlike the Yang-jutsu that Nekonosuke had previously demonstrated, this ninja cat's Yang-jutsu seems to be good at "strengthening".

At the same time, the claws of this ninja cat are different from those of ordinary ninja cats. His claws are shining with a metallic color, and at first glance they look a bit like "Wolverine".

Mei Terumi naturally would not do as the ninja cat wished and face the pursuing ninja cat.

After quickly forming hand seals, Mei Terumi spit out five fireballs the size of a human head in succession.

Fire Escape. Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique!

Faced with five fireballs coming from all directions, the "King Kong Cat" had nowhere to hide for a moment.

At this moment, he could only choose to withstand the fire escape released by Mei Terumi.

Fortunately, the Fengxian Fire Technique has very limited lethality among the C-level fire techniques.

"King Kong Cat" waved the sharp claws on both hands, and for a moment, it was airtight in all directions.

The sharp claws passed directly through the middle of the fireball, and the claw shadows were so fast that the shadows could not be seen clearly, and directly cut all five fireballs.

Although the fireball was annihilated by the ninja cat's sharp claws.

But the scattered sparks still ignited the ninja cat's furry hair.

Helplessly, the "King Kong Cat" had to roll on the ground to put out the flames on its body.

After a round of tentative attacks, Mei Terumi already had a rough idea of ​​the opponent's characteristics.

The opponent is a typical melee-based type, with excellent physical skills and agility, and enhanced by the Yang Dun secret technique.

Such an opponent must have extraordinary close combat skills, so you must never let him get close to you easily.

After making up her mind, Mei Terumi did not stop and continued to form hand seals and release fire escape.

Fire escape. Dragon fire technique!

Although the Dragon Fire Technique is at the same C-rank as the Phoenix Fire, the attack is more targeted than the Phoenix Fire, so it is more powerful.

Blazing tongues of fire spewed out of Mei Terumi's mouth, and the scorching breath made the ninja cat's hair on the opposite side curl slightly.

But this time, Terumi Mei's fire escape didn't work.

Because the opponent is too fast!

The moment Terumi Mei launched the Dragon Fire Technique, the leg muscles of "King Kong Cat" suddenly swelled up, and the lower body suddenly became extremely thick.

This change also caused the "King Kong Cat"'s movement speed to rise sharply, allowing him to avoid the attack of the Dragon Fire Technique by a narrow margin.

Of course, being so close to the Dragon Fire Jutsu, the ninja cat's fur was inevitably singed by the flames, but for the most part he remained unscathed.

"So fast!"

Mei Terumi was startled, but in just a moment, the other party had already gotten in front of her.

The cat's two paws, with a total of ten sharp claws, slashed towards Terumi Mei without mercy.

In a panic, Mei Terumi could only draw out the blades she had with her to fight.

"Dang!!!"

The moment Ruizhua's kunai touched Mei Terumi's kunai, it broke instantly!

"what!"

Mei Terumi's pupils contracted slightly.

next second.

"Pfft!!!"

Blood splattered everywhere, and Ryosuke Mizunoe's eyes in the audience sank slightly.

"Whoo, whoo, whoo"

Mei Terumi was breathing heavily alone, covering her other shoulder with one hand.

·· Request flowers·· ··

At this moment, there were five deep scars that could be seen to the bone, and blood was constantly flowing out of the scars.

On the other side of the ring, "King Kong Cat" waved his claws and shook off the blood.

He turned around and looked at Mei Terumi who had escaped into the distance.

Just now at the critical moment, Mei Terumi used the substitution technique to dodge the opponent's claw attack, but because the opponent's speed was too fast, Mei Terumi's substitution technique was released a little slowly, so she still suffered damage.

After the substitution ended, Mei Terumi immediately used the instant body movement technique to create distance again.

"Flashing Body Technique" is the highest level ninjutsu among the three ninja techniques.

This technique can usually only be mastered by ninjas at the Jonin level, and it looks like a "teleportation" ninjutsu.

But in fact, it is just an ultra-high-speed movement that consumes a lot of chakra. Because the speed is too fast, it is mistaken for "teleportation", so it is named "Teleportation".

0 ....

In the original work, Uchiha Shisui, a senior ninja of the Uchiha clan, was called "Flash Body Shisui" because of his superb skills in the instant body movement technique.

With Mei Terumi's current strength, using the body-flickering technique would be extremely burdensome.

Not only will it cause a large amount of chakra consumption, but the body will also be unable to withstand the backlash caused by continuous instant body movement in a short period of time.

In such a high-intensity battle, this is probably the only chance to use the instant body movement technique.

Originally, Terumi Meditation was saved for later use, but the situation was critical just now, so she had no choice but to use it.

Although the attack missed, Ninja Cat was not discouraged at all and rushed towards Terumi Mei again at an extremely fast speed.

"How to do?"

Mei Terumi's eyes flickered.

The melee combat route has basically been blocked. The opponent is not only good at melee combat, but also has Yang-style enhanced claws that are powerful enough to tear apart Terumi Mei's blades. Without blades, Terumi Mei cannot fight against the opponent with her bare hands.

As for ninjutsu, high-intensity ninjutsu requires too long a time to form hand seals, and the opponent will not give her such a long time to prepare.

However, releasing low-level ninjutsu does not pose enough threat to this ninja cat, not even the fire escape that can restrain the opponent is an exception.

Illusion?

Mei Terumi has never tried it, but this is not her area of ​​expertise, so she naturally cannot bet everything on it at the critical moment.

After thinking about it, a hint of determination flashed in Terumi Mei's eyes.

No matter what, she will win!

At this moment, the faith in her heart burst out and she drew her knife.

Chapter 123, Don’t Blame Me

In the ninja world, strength does not directly determine the outcome of a battle.

Faith, will, awareness, wisdom

These things all affect the final outcome of the battle.

Even as strong as Scorpion of the Red Sand, due to his lack of awareness, he was still no match for Sakura and Chiyo's combined strength.

Enlightenment can sometimes really change a lot of things.

Facing the aggressive ninja cat, Terumi Mei had no intention of dodging this time. She first used the Shadow Clone Technique at an extremely fast speed.

Then, she and her shadow clone stood back to back and began to form hand seals and perform ninjutsu.

Seeing this scene, Mitsuhiko Mizunoe frowned in the audience.

Of course he knew that Mei Terumi had a hidden combined attack ninjutsu that she could use.

Is this the purpose of Mei Terumi using clones?

But the opponent would not give her the "643" time to perform advanced ninjutsu.

Soon, Mei Terumi's behavior dispelled Mitsuhiko Mizunoe's suspicions.

This time, she used the water escape technique that she was best at.

Water escape. Water waves!

Under the control of Mei Terumi, a large amount of water waves surged towards the ninja cat on the opposite side.

Similarly, since Mei Terumi cannot perform advanced fire jutsu in a short period of time, she naturally cannot perform advanced water jutsu either.

This Water Wave move is only a C-level water jutsu, and is even considered the foundation of the basics of water jutsu ninjutsu. Its power is really limited.

The slow flow of water could not threaten the murderous "King Kong Cat" at all.

Unlike the big orange cat that was almost drowned in the misty space, this King Kong cat's steps were extremely light, and he even performed a "dragonfly skimming the water" in front of Mei Terumi.

He suddenly stepped on the water, jumped high, and then crossed his ten sharp claws and rushed towards Terumi Mei.

Seeing this, Mei Terumi took out another blade from her blade bag. It seemed that she had been forced into a desperate situation and was forced to engage in close combat with this ninja cat.

She raised her hand to block it with the blade.

"Dang!"

As expected, the kunai in Terumi Mei's hand only blocked for a moment before being cut off by the opponent's sharp claws.

Following this angle and the sharpness of the opponent's claws, I'm afraid that if it cuts straight down, one of Terumi Mei's arms will be cut off directly.

Seeing this, Mei Terumi still didn't intend to dodge, and there was only a look of determination in her eyes.

Below the ring, Mizunoe Ryosuke smiled slightly, as if he had understood something, and slowly closed his eyes and stopped looking.

Because he knew that Mei Terumi had already won this battle.

As the sharp claws touched Terumi Mei's body again, the feeling surprised King Kong Cat.

Because the feeling from the claws didn't feel like cutting flesh at all, but rather like cutting a piece of diamond.

At the same time, Mei Terumi was also a little confused. She had already prepared to lose an arm, but she didn't expect that after the opponent's claws attacked her, she was still safe and sound.

Even Mei Terumi herself didn't know that the ice pendant she originally wore around her neck had now turned into a thin layer of ice armor attached to her shoulders.
