When you are in Naruto, the era of live streaming for all has begun!

To know.

In the ninja world, there is a rather cruel saying!

That is, everyone below the Kage level is an ant!

Before one's strength reaches the Kage level.

If one rashly intervenes in a battle between Kage-level ninjas.

There is very likely only one possible outcome.

That means becoming cannon fodder!!!

of course.

If the quantity is large enough.

Even cannon fodder can make Kage-level ninjas temporarily retreat!

but now.

Three Kage-level ninjas of unknown status are fighting in the bathhouse.

In situations where the enemy and friend are unclear!

It would be extremely dangerous for these Konoha ninja to rush in!

……

at the same time.

Inside the public bathing area!

The battle between Jiraiya and Kisame Hoshigaki continues.

After the clash of their ninjutsu just now!

They immediately engaged in close-quarters combat!

With his powerful physique and strength, coupled with the terrifying destructive power of the Samehada sword!

At first, Kisame Hoshigaki had a firm grip on Jiraiya.

But soon.

As Jiraiya gradually mastered Kisame Hoshigaki's close-combat rhythm...

Jiraiya's counterattack began to escalate!

They even seemed to have the upper hand!

This led to Kisame Hoshigaki fighting him for a while!

You can only passively parry and defend!

He was completely overwhelmed by Jiraiya and had no chance to fight back!

"As expected of the legendary Sannin of Konoha, your taijutsu is far superior to that Orochimaru guy's..."

Seizing the opening in Jiraiya's attack, Kisame Hoshigaki gripped the hilt of Samehada with his backhand and then delivered a powerful horizontal sweep, instantly forcing Jiraiya back two meters away!

"Your swordsmanship is incredibly powerful and quite formidable. If I'm not mistaken, you must be the strongest among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, right?"

Looking at the imposing figure shrouded in white mist before him, Jiraiya's gaze was quite solemn!

Kisame Hoshigaki possesses extremely formidable martial arts skills.

Although his superhuman strength wasn't as terrifying as Tsunade's.

But they shouldn't be underestimated!

They are a formidable opponent!

Chapter 197: Is the Substitution Technique also a space-time ninjutsu? (Begging for full subscription)

Studio.

I saw Jiraiya say that Kisame Hoshigaki was the strongest of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.

The other Seven Ninja Swordsmen!

He immediately became unhappy!

[Jūzō Biwa: This Jiraiya is utter nonsense. When did Kisame become the strongest among us?]

[Hozuki Senjin: That's right, speculation without solid evidence has absolutely no credibility!]

[Suigazan Fuguki: Kisame, that bastard, only knows how to ambush... If he hadn't ambushed me back then, I would have torn him to pieces long ago!]

Zabuza Momochi: What is Kisame Hoshigaki anyway? I'm the strongest of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist!

[Minazuki Haku: Zabuza-sama...]

[Kurihara Kushimaru: Hmph! A piece of trash who was instantly defeated by Hatake Kakashi dares to call himself the strongest among us?]

[Loquat Juzo: Yeah Zabuza, have some shame... We all saw you get one-shotted by Kakashi at the outhouse entrance!]

If you are the strongest among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist!

Then our Seven Ninja Swordsmen are too pathetic!

[Muri Shinobu: Tch! A mere second-generation member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of Momochi dares to spout nonsense here? Zabuza Momochi, I think you're tired of living...]

Hozuki Mangetsu: What's wrong with the Second Generation Seven Ninja? We Second Generation Seven Ninja may be a little younger than the First Generation!

However, in terms of strength, we might not necessarily lose to you!

Ringo Ameyuri: Mangetsu is right. We, the second generation of the Seven Ninja, are definitely much stronger than you first generation members!

At least, we won't let that Konoha genin kick four of us to death and cripple three of us!

[Muri Jinpachi: Damn it, that genin from Konoha is playing dumb to fool us, what can we do?]

[Kurihara Kushimaru: That's right. You guys saw it in the arena last time. That Konoha genin could even kill a peak Kage-level ninja like the Second Hokage with one kick!]

It's not surprising that we were kicked to death by him without our knowledge, is it?

[Tobirama Senju: Holy crap, you guys from Kirigakure, why are you dragging me into this?]

Kushimaru Kurihara: Second Hokage, don't be angry. I was just stating a fact!

After all, last time in the arena, you were literally kicked to death by that Konoha genin named Might Guy!

[Tobirama Senju: Cough~ That time it was because I was careless. If I had another chance, I could definitely avoid that kick!]

[Tsukusa no Yaijin: Second Hokage, stop bragging. Might Guy, in his Eight Gates state, could even seal off space with his taijutsu. How were you going to avoid that?]

[Tobirama Senju: That's easy. It's just a mere spatial blockade. If I hadn't been so overconfident, I could have easily taken care of it with a substitution jutsu. There was no need for me to take Might Dai's kick head-on!]

[Tsubame-no-Kimi: Substitution Jutsu?]

[Kurihara Kushimaru: This... seems like it might actually work...]

[Hozuki Senjin: Damn it, why didn't I think of using the Substitution Jutsu back then?]

【Murijinpachi: Yes, if we had used the Substitution Jutsu to escape when Might Guy opened the Eight Gates Formation back then!

We, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, will not suffer any casualties!

[Loquat Juzo: As it turns out, the Substitution Jutsu is indeed a life-saving technique!]

[Murijinpachi: That's right, the Substitution Jutsu has a built-in space-time replacement attribute. To put it more simply, it's a space-time ninjutsu that everyone can learn!]

Moreover, it's incredibly easy to learn; any ninja with even a little talent can master it in no time!

Hozuki Senjin: Sigh~ I'm speechless. The more I think about it, the more I regret it...

This could have been easily solved with a substitution jutsu!

We actually lost four people at once!

I'm so unwilling to accept this!

[Wu Li Shen Ba: Yes, it's so frustrating...]

[Kurihara Kushimaru: If I could choose again, I would definitely use my Stand to escape without hesitation the moment I saw Might Guy...]

[Tongcao Yeren: Brother, we're thinking the same thing!]

[Murijinpachi: Me too...]

……

Seeing these Mist Ninjas, they all thought their idea was pretty good.

Tobirama Senju couldn't help but burst into laughter!

[Tobirama Senju: It seems that you ninjas from Kirigakure are all incredibly stupid!]

The solution that I could easily come up with was something none of you seven could think of!

In my opinion, you should stop calling your so-called Seven Broken Swordsmen.

Let's just change it to "The Seven Men Who Lose Their Intelligence"!

[Tongcaoyebaiman:...]

【No Pear, Eighth: ...】

【Kurihara Kushimaru: ...】

[Loquat Ten Treasures: ...]

[Suikazan Fuguki: ...]

[Ghost Light Thousand Blades:...]

Chapter 198 Jiraiya: I could tell you weren't human at first glance! (Begging for full subscription)

[Tobirama Senju: You lot, stop with the ellipses! After Jiraiya's antics, I'm actually quite curious now: who among you is truly the strongest?]

[Loquat Juzo: Second Hokage, I'm not sure if you mean the first or second generation of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist when you say "who's stronger"?]

[Tobirama Senju: They're all the same... They're all trash characters anyway!]

[Loquat Ten Treasures: ...]

[Suigazan Fuguki: Second Hokage, that's going too far. We Seven Ninja Swordsmen may not be as famous as you!]

However, he was at least a somewhat well-known figure in the ninja world!

How could you call us trash characters?

[Wu Li Shenba: That's right, Second Hokage, don't go too far...]

[Tobirama Senju: Am I being unreasonable? Heh~ Am I wrong? You guys aren't even Kage-level.]

If it's not a trash character, then what is it?

"Anyone below the Kage level is but an ant"—this is a widely circulated and profound saying in the ninja world throughout history!

[Suikazan Fuguki: That's true, but can't you at least give us a little face?]

[Loquat Juzo: Yes, leave a way out for others, so you can meet again in the future. Second Hokage, you're being too harsh!]

[Tobirama Senju: I speak harshly? You juniors are truly laughable!]

As the saying goes, honest advice is hard to swallow, and that's why I called you trash!

Its main purpose is to inspire you!

This will allow you to train diligently and break through the Shadow-level bottleneck as soon as possible!

[Suigazan Fuguki: Still want to break through the Kage-level bottleneck as soon as possible? Dude, we're already dead. Do you think it's any use to keep training?]

[Tobirama Senju: Of course it's useless!]

[Suikazan Fugu Demon: Then why do you still encourage us to train hard?]

[Tobirama Senju: Damn it! I was only trying to give you juniors a way out because you've had it tough... Don't be ungrateful...]
