"Aburame Mushi-Hime." But if it was Hanzo, Miki was willing to answer.
This guy was a true Shinobi hero.
It was not easy to lead the Land of Rain to survive in such a cruel chaotic world.
"The Aburame Clan, rumors are not as good as meeting them, truly terrifying." Saying this, Hanzo looked at the other two.
"Uchiha Chiri," Chiri said knowingly.
"Hyuga Hitomi," Hitomi said coldly.
"The rumored prestigious Dojutsu clan, Konoha truly thinks highly of me," Hanzo said, "That white-haired guy wouldn't be named Senju, would he? Rumor has it the Second Hokage had white hair and was known as the Ninja World's fastest, that guy's speed was also terrifyingly fast. If it weren't for the poison, I wouldn't have lasted three rounds."
Miki shook her head and said, "If this is your last will, then it's too boring."
"Hahahahahahaha!" Hanzo laughed loudly, coughing blood as he laughed, and said, "I lost! I have nothing to say!"
"But I didn't lose to Konoha's strength!"
"I lost because I was alone!"
"I lost because I didn't have strong companions!"
"I lost because I didn't have like-minded compatriots who wanted to change this world!"
"I didn't lose because of my own weakness…"
"I…"
I didn't lose because of my own powerlessness.
Waves of powerlessness surged into his heart, sorrow welled up, and his eyes reddened…
His ambition ended before it even began.
Where would the Land of Rain go after this?
Either it would become a battlefield between the Great Nations, or it would be annexed by one of the Great Nations.
And he himself could change nothing.
Is this the power of the Five Great Nations?
He was truly deluded before, like a frog in a well.
It's truly ridiculous…
"Hahahahahahaha!!!"
Hanzo laughed wildly and loudly.
Roaring.
"Come on!"
"Give me a Shinobi's death!!!"
Hearing this, Miki stepped forward with her sword, stood behind Hanzo, raised the sword with both hands, the Village needed Hanzo's head as proof of mission completion.
At the same time, they also needed the information in Hanzo's head.
Rain drizzled down, drops hitting her body, hair, and sword.
Water droplets slid along the blade, dripping to the ground, creating ripples.
Miki raised her sword and swung it down.
Accompanied by a crisp metallic clang, a Kunai spun and plunged into the ground.
Chiri blocked in front of Miki, drawing her sword to deflect the incoming Kunai.
She looked at the newcomer.
Black long spiky hair, eyes like a mosquito coil.
In the rain, the old man stood with his arms crossed, saying proudly, "I've taken a liking to this guy!"
Miki looked at the guy, silently lowering her sword.
As Chiri silently took a step forward, her figure disappeared into the rain, accompanied by fluttering Butterflies.
"A bit interesting, but not enough."
As he spoke, without the old man making any visible move, Chiri in the illusion was sent flying out.
Rinbo: Hengoku
Chiri got up from the ground, holding her sword, and looked up at the old man.
"Hmph, do you see? This is called Yin Release, shaping from nothing."
"Do you feel the gap?"
The old man sneered.
Chiri silently wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, then stood up with her sword.
She hadn't seen what happened just now, even with her San Ba (Three Tomoe) Sharingan.
Hitomi walked over and silently stood beside Chiri.
Miki stepped forward, raised her hand to stop the two from further action, and said, "I'll give him to you this time, but you won't be so lucky next time."
"Do you want to die, Mushi-Hime?" the old man said coldly.
"You can try," Miki said coldly, "Who will die, mosquito coil old man."
"Hmph, very good, I hope you have this spirit next time too, but this is the last time."
"Laughable, but not deadly at all," Miki sneered, "I'm returning that line to you, this is the last time."
"Well then, I'll look forward to it," the old man sneered, "You are too weak now."
"Let's go," Miki said, then picked up Insect Sister and left directly.
Chiri and Hitomi glanced at the old man, then turned and followed.
In the rain, Hanzo and the old man met each other's gaze.
"How unsightly…"
"Who are you?"
"Uchiha Madara!"
Hanzo's pupils suddenly constricted.
"What do you want to do?"
"Change this world!" Madara laughed, "Kid! Lend me your power!"
Hanzo remained silent.
"By yourself, you can't do anything. Your pathetic state now is proof."
"How do I do it?" Hanzo asked in a deep voice.
"Very good," Madara nodded with satisfaction, and said, "But you are still too weak to contend against the Five Great Nations."
"What should I do?" Hanzo asked.
"First step, weaken the power of the Five Great Nations through war, just as you did before."
I have some drafts now, but this is the only time. There won't be a next time.
It was originally two updates a day, the rhythm was set.
And the assassination of Hanzo, plus this chapter, is only nine chapters. The main content describes Miki's growth over the years, mostly showcasing Medical Ninjutsu and sealing technique, while the insect swarm actually hasn't changed much, except for the Slug.
The insect swarm needs to be described in detail, and learning Medical Ninjutsu before was a kind of foreshadowing.
