However, in the face of such terrifying secret techniques, 'Enough!'
Terumi Mei showed no panic on her face. She took another step forward, locking eyes coldly with Hozuki Suigetsu.
Then, she shouted coldly, 'Those five pursuers, weren't they deliberately left for us to kill?'
'When I used the Exploding Water Shockwave to set up the battlefield, you had the ability to end this fight.'
The Water Release: Shield Hat technique requires a large amount of water to be gathered before it can be activated.
In the environment of Water Release: Cutting Rain, if Terumi Mei wanted to hold back Hozuki Suigetsu, she would inevitably use water techniques as her primary means.
Other elemental techniques, including Bloodline Limit Techniques, could only be used as auxiliary attacks in such an environment.
And when Terumi Mei used water techniques, or when Hozuki Suigetsu himself cast a large-scale water technique, the battle would already be over.
With the home-field advantage and such a secret technique at his disposal, Hozuki Suigetsu was already invincible.
Terumi Mei looked up at Hozuki Suigetsu, her tone filled with accusation:
'But you didn't use this technique right away!'
'What were you waiting for? Were you not waiting for your five subordinates to be defeated?'
She pointed to the five cold bodies on the ground, directly exposing him:
'So cold and heartless, you truly live up to your reputation as a pursuer with the blood of your comrades on your hands, don't you?'
'I thought Uchiha Shi's speculation was just nonsense, but your actions have confirmed this fact!'
Under such an accusation, Hozuki Suigetsu fell silent.
Terumi Mei paused, then lifted her head and continued speaking.
'Hozuki Suigetsu,'
'So eager to find Yagura,'
Her gaze was cold and stern as she stared at him, confidently declaring:
'You are indeed a demon who seeks to overthrow the Mist Village and slay your master!'
Facing this accusation again, Hozuki Suigetsu's face showed a hint of mild anxiety, his eyes darker than usual.
He immediately sneered coldly and asked, 'So what does that prove? Or rather, so what?'
Hozuki Suigetsu took a deep breath and said calmly, 'As a pursuer, a butcher with the blood of comrades on his hands, one should be prepared. The killer being killed is a common truth.'
'Being killed only proves that they were not skilled enough and unsuitable for the role of a butcher, nothing more.'
Terumi Mei couldn't help but frown and asked sternly, 'Do you think you are suitable for this role?'
'If you were to assassinate the Third Mizukage, how well could you do?'
Hozuki Suigetsu's face turned cold, a hint of struggle flashing in his eyes before he coldly declared, 'Let's end this pointless probing, Terumi Mei.'
'Living under the false pretense of sunlight, you are not prepared for change. Just stay in your greenhouse and be a pretty vase.'
Then, he stared at Terumi Mei and coldly pressed, 'Tell me, what does Yagura intend to do?'
Terumi Mei showed no anger at being called a vase; instead, she felt a sense of relief.
Only now, after Uchiha Shi's bold speculation and several rounds of probing, did she have the opportunity to guide him to reveal his true intentions.
When both parties were勉强划入一个阵营, this crisis was finally averted.
Terumi Mei took a deep breath and firmly stated, 'As you suspected, the head of the Mist Village's Special Jōnin Squad, Yagura, has gathered enough evidence to bring down the Third Mizukage!'
'Next, the Mist Village will usher in a new era of reform.'
'We, Yagura-sama, the Head Elder, and the Bloodline Families, will unite to continue the policies of the First and Second Mizukage, abolishing the brutal and oppressive policies of recent years, one by one, starting with the Ninja Academy system.'
Terumi Mei's expression was resolute, her eyes filled with determination as she spoke to Hozuki Suigetsu:
'No more pursuers, no more bearing the sin of killing comrades!'
'And you can serve under the Mizukage again as the next captain of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist!'
'The Elder Council sent us to find Yagura for this very purpose!'
'Oh.' Hozuki Suigetsu narrowed his eyes slightly, 'Is that so?'
Then, he responded expressionlessly:
'Then take me to see Yagura. If he is not qualified to become the Fourth Mizukage,'
'I will kill him with my own hands.'
Terumi Mei clenched her fists, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded reluctantly, 'Alright, but once we reach that place, you must accept the seal!'
'It doesn't matter to me.' Hozuki Suigetsu turned his head expressionlessly to look at Uchiha Shi behind Terumi Mei.
'In that case, then—'
Hozuki Suigetsu's tone turned cold, his teeth bared in a shark-like grin.
He immediately bit his finger and formed the hand seals for summoning:
Pig, Dog, Bird, Monkey, Sheep!
He placed his hand on the [Seven Great Swordsmen of the Mist Summoning Scroll] and drew a line across it!
[Double], [Great], [Lightning], [Sever], [Long], [Explosion], [Blunt]!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Seven clouds of smoke rose suddenly, and seven differently shaped ninjato were arranged in a line above the head of a massive water monster.
Hozuki Suigetsu drew a Lightning Blade with his backhand, forming a cold blade flower, pointing it directly at Uchiha Shi and shouting coldly, 'Uchiha brat, let's finish this fight!'
Uchiha Shi took a deep breath, having anticipated this.
He stepped around Terumi Mei, moved forward, and drew his ninjato with his backhand, gripping the hilt with both hands, lifting his head slightly, and focusing his gaze.
A pair of crimson Sharingan eyes stared intently at Hozuki Suigetsu standing atop the massive creature, suppressing the trembling in his heart.
He stood straight, legs shoulder-width apart, ready for battle.
'Wait! Hozuki Suigetsu!' Terumi Mei suddenly raised her head, eyes wide with shock, and asked, 'What are you doing?!'
Hozuki Suigetsu simply shook his head at Terumi Mei and said coldly, 'Mist Village matters cannot be known by him.'
Then, he looked coldly at Uchiha Shi and said calmly, 'Don't worry, I'm just sending him on his way. After all, he came here for this purpose, didn't he?'
'Whether he is killed by the monster below or by me, it doesn't matter.'
After saying this, Hozuki Suigetsu drew the Blunt Blade: Hozuki and the Great Blade: Samehada from the rack and hung them on his back, looking down at Uchiha Shi from a height of over ten meters, his eyes filled with killing intent!
Uchiha Shi took a deep breath and looked up at Hozuki Suigetsu atop the water monster.
He gave a grim smile:
'Do you really think you can kill me?'
'Then come on!'
In the next moment, he immediately activated the Secret Technique: Earth Grudge Puppet Stitching!
Black, tough threads spread from his wrists, tightly binding his hand to the sword hilt, and then extended up the blade, forming a narrow, wide reverse spiral sword shape.
Then, he used the Prohibited Technique: Flesh Regeneration for the last time in the near future.
The muscles in his body rippled, extracting a new, massive chakra from his already depleted body, and he channeled all of this chakra into the Snake Seal with both hands gripping the sword.
Water Release: Water Fang Blade suddenly spiraled up!
The Spiral Water Blade grew rapidly in the storm, transforming into a nearly six-foot-long spiral water blade under the massive chakra infusion.
Then, he cautiously added the Sword Technique: Chakra Attachment to slightly increase its sharpness.
Uchiha Shi raised the water blade, which was the peak of his swordsmanship, coldly raised his hand, pointing it directly at Hozuki Suigetsu standing over ten meters high with the best swords in the world, and sneered, 'Do you think I'm afraid?'
His gaze turned fierce, and he couldn't help but smile wildly, shouting, 'Come on! Meet me in death!'
In Terumi Mei's shocked gaze, this young man actually took the initiative to charge at Hozuki Suigetsu with his sword!
