Capítulo 89: MSIN: Chapter 87 [Welcome Lucas Gossett 2]
The tables had turned. This brief exchange was extremely dangerous for Haori.
In the few battles he had experienced before, he had generally been on the advantageous side in terms of speed. Haori was faster than his enemies, so he could often take the initiative in attacks.
Coupled with his usual Lightning Release attack method, which basically didn't give people the ability to counterattack, he could often achieve a one-hit kill.
But now, he was facing a speed-type ninja similar to himself for the first time. He was a bit out of his element in battle.
If he used all his techniques, including abilities beyond ninja techniques, defeating, or to be more precise, killing this enemy wouldn't be very difficult for Haori. But he wouldn't do that.
Ninja against ninja.
Ninja fighting against ninja.
This was one of Haori's temporarily established battle principles.
So, the question is, why not use your cheat code? Isn't that stupid? Do ninjas need to talk about fairness and justice in battle?
Actually, that's not the case. This has nothing to do with psychological equality and fairness.
This issue is actually quite easy to explain. Haori insisted on using ninjutsu to fight first because he had a clear purpose.
After all, up to this point, there was no evidence to prove that he was stupid. So, his actions should be explained in terms of rationality.
His reason was simple. It was to practice and train in real combat.
If he used his ultimate technique, he could indeed easily deal with this kind of enemy. But he wanted to use this enemy to practice.
Even if he wasn't familiar with the world's plot, Haori knew that at some point in the future, he might, or rather, would definitely encounter even stronger enemies.
And these enemies would have a certain characteristic: Their cheat code level would be much higher than Haori's.
Not to mention anything else, there was a certain badass (bad ninja?) in this world. He could cut a watermelon in half, and then, you cut a planet in half, and I cut a planet in half. Could Haori do that?
When a cheater meets a bigger cheater, you can't cheat your way out of it.
What happens when you can't cheat your way out of it at that time? You have to go back to ninjutsu.
Of course, you can't expect to learn how to do it on the fly when you meet that kind of enemy. It would be impossible to defeat them. So, from now on, he had to adapt to the ninja's way of fighting. He needed to experience battle after battle as a ninja.
In these battles, he might eventually find techniques that were even more powerful than his innate skills.
…
"Lightning Release and Fire Release. According to our information, these are the two jutsu you know. But unfortunately, the environment of the Land of Rain isn't suitable for your jutsu to be effective. Whether it's Lightning Release or Fire Release…"
Haori retreated. The masked Fūma ninja didn't rush to pursue him, but he looked at Haori as if he were looking at a caged prey.
"The enemy is indeed Jonin level, but just because of this confidence and the environmental factors, is he so sure that he can defeat me?" Haori didn't respond to the enemy's words. This thought just flashed through his mind. But he was more concerned and interested in another word in the enemy's words:
We.
You shouldn't say "we" when you're alone. That's a plural word.
His words gave Haori a bad feeling. Could it be that some organization was collecting and had already obtained some of his information?
Haori didn't think he was that important of a figure. Why was this happening?
He was full of doubts and concerns about the enemy's words, but he also knew that now wasn't the time to think about them.
Capture the enemy alive? Then torture him?
Sorry, you can't hold back during a battle like this. Otherwise, you might accidentally kill yourself.
The enemy was very skilled, but Haori wasn't afraid.
He wasn't bloodthirsty, but he wasn't afraid of battle either. After being in this world for so many years, his psychological preparation had long been completed.
So, although the enemy was strong, Haori didn't retreat but instead advanced. He charged at the enemy again, enveloped in Lightning Release.
As if intentionally toying with Haori, seeing him charge directly at him, the masked ninja didn't face him head-on as he had before. Instead, he retreated.
Ten meters!
He threw the kunai in his hand at Haori.
Haori didn't move at all. He maintained his speed, simply tilting his head slightly to dodge the attack. This kind of attack with a projectile weapon had limited effect.
Just when he thought the enemy's attack was a bit simple, Haori suddenly felt a warning. Then, he reached behind his neck with his right hand, which was covered in Chidori flow, and the kunai that was returning.
Remote control? Chakra thread? Puppet Technique?
Several thoughts popped into Haori's mind in an instant, but he quickly realized he was overthinking.
It turned out that there was just a transparent thin thread tied to the tail ring of the enemy's kunai.
In other environments, this thread would be difficult to detect. But in the downpour, the raindrops hanging on the thread easily exposed its existence.
This attack wouldn't cause any interference. Haori threw away the kunai and continued to charge forward.
Five meters!
The enemy retreated, facing Haori. His speed couldn't possibly be faster than Haori's frontal pursuit.
But this time, the masked ninja didn't choose to use his lightning-fast martial arts attack again. Instead, he chose to use ninjutsu. As Haori closed in, he had already completed his hand seals.
He took a deep breath and then exhaled a powerful wave of water from his mouth!
Water Release: Water Disturbance Wave!
But Haori had already noticed his hand seals. He seemed to have anticipated that he would launch this Water Release attack. So, as the enemy completed his hand seals and launched the jutsu, Haori's hand seals were also completed almost simultaneously.
Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet!
A scorching fireball gathered in front of Haori's eyes. Then, after briefly charging, the central part of the fireball shot forward like an arrow!
At the limit of five meters, Water Release and Fire Release erupted simultaneously!
In terms of attributes, Water Release counters Fire Release. But this is a general rule for jutsu of the same level. Now, Haori was using a B-rank Fire Release to resist and counter the enemy's C-rank Water Release. Theoretically, there was no problem.
Water and fire clashed!
Even through his mask, Haori could feel the heat of the Fire Release. In that instant, his clothes and hair, which had been wet from the rain, instantly dried.
His breathing was a bit labored. He felt a faint sense of suffocation.
Under the Fire Dragon Flame Bullet, the enemy's Water Release, plus all the rainwater within the range of the jutsu, instantly evaporated under the high temperature of the Fire Release. In the icy rain, scorching steam quickly spread!
