"The intensity of that giant enveloping you seems quite formidable…" Mei Terumī said, looking at Susanoo before her, sensing the immense power contained within.
"However… my favorite thing is to slowly melt away hard things, bit by bit…"
"Boil Release: Skilled Mist Jutsu!"
A thin mist was exhaled from Mei Terumī's lipstick-adorned lips, enveloping Kaoru and Susanoo within its range.
"This jutsu…" Kaoru narrowed his eyes slightly, instantly understanding.
Combining fire and water nature chakra from the earth, it exhales boiling mist from the mouth. It can gradually evaporate objects, its intensity surpassing that of Lava Style. It can cause Susanoo's bones to melt faster, and its acidic mist form can melt and penetrate Susanoo, directly inflicting powerful damage.
In terms of corrosiveness, this technique far surpasses Lava Style!!!
"You intend to dissolve my Susanoo? Interesting…"
Mei Terumī possesses three chakra natures and has even fused them to create two of her own Kekkei Genkai. She can be considered a truly outstanding Kage-level figure.
"As expected of the Fifth Mizukage… Compared to you, who can use two Kekkei Genkai, and the Tsuchikage's creation of Dust Release through Kekkei Tōta, I truly feel inadequate," Kaoru said, shaking his head slightly, his tone filled with humility, yet his expression remained relaxed and indifferent.
"However, Fifth Mizukage, I am also constantly strengthening my own ninjutsu through rigorous training. Now, let me show you…"
Saying this to Mei Terumī, Kaoru's eyes narrowed slightly. The eyes of his Susanoo changed along with Kaoru's transformation.
"That giant is changing? What's happening?!" Both the Kage on the platform and in the arena watched the eerie light emanating from Susanoo's eyes with trepidation.
Behold, all four palms of the light giant condensed black flames, which were rapidly rotating, forming four pitch-black spiral spears!!!
At this moment, Susanoo, which appeared pure and radiant, held pitch-black flame spears, creating a bizarre and awe-inspiring scene!
"Forget it, I just wanted to slightly scare them. No need to go overboard. Besides, destroying Konoha Village wouldn't be good…" A thought crossed Kaoru's mind. With a flicker of his will, three of the four pitch-black spiral spears instantly vanished, leaving only the last one in Susanoo's hand.
"Amaterasu: Hard Whirlwind Flame Blade!!! That is the name of this jutsu!"
As Kaoru's shocking words reached everyone's ears, Susanoo let out a terrifying roar. The arm holding the black spiral spear slashed towards Mei Terumī's position in a streak of light. In the next second, a ring of scorching hot wind, like an impact wave caused by black flames, surged outwards like waves!
"Tch, did you deliberately go easy on me? But such a large-scale ninjutsu…" Mei Terumī whispered, her ice-green eyes filled with shock. She saw that Kaoru had withdrawn the other three spears, knowing he had held back, but even with just one black flame spear remaining, its power was astonishingly immense!
"Mizukage-sama?!" On the high platform, Chōjūrō, the Mizukage's guard, exclaimed.
"I know!!" Mei Terumī responded, forming hand seals with lightning speed.
Water Style: Water Formation Pillar!
The power of Mei Terumī's Water Style ninjutsu was naturally unquestionable. In the original story, Mei Terumī's Water Style alone could completely counter Madara's Fire Style, demonstrating the strength of her Water Style. Some knowledgeable individuals in the ninja world even rumored that her Water Style surpassed that of Konoha's Second Hokage!
Whether Mei Terumī's Water Style was stronger than the Second Hokage's was a separate matter, but the mere fact that someone would say such a thing was a testament to her skill. However, Kaoru's ninjutsu was not what people commonly perceived of Fire Style. Strictly speaking, this move was not Fire Style at all!
"What's going on?!"
Exclamations of disbelief echoed. Both the two Kage on the platform and the two Kage in the arena discovered that Mei Terumī's grand Water Style ninjutsu was being directly swallowed by that pitch-black spiral spear! In the battle between water and fire, the flames had completely gained the upper hand.
"Fourth Mizukage, Amaterasu is the karma fire that can devour everything. Even water can be completely devoured and destroyed!!!" Kaoru explained calmly.
This technique combined Kaoru's Amaterasu flames with his own Susanoo. Since Kaoru lacked Sasuke's ability to control the black flames of Amaterasu, he himself could not use this technique. He could only wield it with the power of Susanoo. By controlling Amaterasu in the same way he would use the Hard Whirlwind Flame Blade, he merged the two ninjutsu, making it even more powerful!
"BOOM!!!"
The spiral spear instantly landed in front of Mei Terumī, creating a large crater. But it wasn't over yet. The hurricane, carrying Amaterasu, roared towards Mei Terumī's location!
Seeing that her front was completely engulfed by the black flames of the spiral spear, Mei Terumī gritted her teeth, seemingly with no escape.
"Fifth Mizukage is finished, is she…" Seeing this, Kaoru was about to dispel Amaterasu, but his Mangekyō Sharingan suddenly perceived an interesting sight…
Suddenly, a massive sand wave surged from the ground, forming a giant shield in front of Mei Terumī. Simultaneously, the rocky ground beneath Mei Terumī's feet rose abruptly, lifting the Mizukage away from the range of the ninjutsu.
Boom!!!
The black flames struck the sand shield. Even the Amaterasu that wasn't blocked by the sand shield, due to Mei Terumī's elevated position, did not hit her.
This sand and rock… Kaoru raised an eyebrow slightly and shifted his gaze. On the other side, Gaara, the Kazekage, and Ōnoki, the Tsuchikage, had also entered the arena.
"The Kazekage and Tsuchikage are also preparing to join the battle? Things are getting more interesting…" Kaoru stared indifferently, his tone tinged with slight excitement.
"Although you are my savior, you requested to fight the other four Kage alone. As Kazekage, I naturally cannot fall behind…" Gaara said, waving his hand. Sand from his gourd and the ground scattered like dust.
"Although I'm an old man and my back always hurts, making me unsuitable for combat, I can still handle a presumptuous junior like you!!!" Ōnoki said, floating in mid-air with his arms crossed.
"Is that so… I am truly looking forward to it. To be able to fight four Kage simultaneously is truly my honor…"
Saying this, Kaoru's expression suddenly turned serious, and he spread his hands wide!
"Tsuchikage, Kazekage, Mizukage, Raikage, I, the Sixth Hokage, will make you all submit to my power today!"
Kaoru's tone was firm, indifferent, yet filled with deep self-confidence. He directly issued a challenge to the four renowned Kage of the ninja world.
"Is this guy… a lunatic?!" All the Kage's guards were stunned, looking at Kaoru in disbelief.
They thought Kaoru was just joking. These four Kage were each renowned figures. Now, a young man wanted to fight all four of them? Was he crazy, or was the world crazy?
However, the observing Konoha villagers and ninjas roared with excitement. Their Hokage was indeed powerful!
"Our Sixth Hokage certainly has some backbone…" On a spectator seat, Hiruzen Sarutobi watched the center of the arena and let out a wry smile.
