Mei Terumi smiled gracefully, completely unfazed by the menacing enemies, and asked, "Can you tell me where Momochi Zabuza is being held?"
"Zabuza?"
Gato spat with a look of disgust. His black sunglasses, which covered his eyes, made him look extremely vulgar. He said, "That kind of trash who dared to betray me was already killed by me!"
He couldn't arrive immediately because he had captured two rebels and, after torturing them, learned their hiding place.
Zabuza, who was used as bait, had lost his value and there was no need to keep him alive.
"Mr. Zabuza, he's dead?"
White's mind buzzed, and his heart pounded. First, he was in disbelief, then his face was filled with sorrow.
He had silently sworn in his heart long ago to always be Mr. Zabuza's tool, even if it meant dying to block an enemy's attack for Mr. Zabuza.
He had never imagined that Mr. Zabuza would die before him.
"I'm going to kill you!"
Tears streamed down his face as White raised the senbon in his hand, and for the first time, killing intent appeared on his pure, flawless face.
However, before he could rush to Gato, he was blocked by fully armed rogue samurai and mercenary Ninja.
Ninja Art: Demonic Mirror Ice Crystals.
Hard ice crystals rose one by one, creating a completely enclosed space that enveloped a portion of the rogue samurai and mercenary Ninja.
Gato stood his ground confidently and laughed wildly, "Since that's the case, I'll personally take action and let you witness my strength!"
After monopolizing Wave Country, he acquired a large sum of funds.
Level 15 purple armor set (physical enhancement type), Level 15 green accessory set (spirit attribute enhancement).
Most importantly, his meticulously crafted toy.
Gato laughed wildly, not taking anyone seriously, and squatted down, pressing his palm to the ground.
"Hidan, move!"
Kakuzu tore open his Akatsuki cloak.
Having survived the Warring States Period, he was the Ninja most capable of seizing combat opportunities; even Senju Hashirama couldn't stop him.
Regardless of whether the natural disaster had anything to do with Mei Terumi, now was the best time to act.
His cloak fell to the ground, revealing Kakuzu's bizarre body, with black stitches like living beings, intertwining to form several deformed masked monsters.
"Understood!"
Hidan also tore open his clothes, pulled the rope, and threw out his three-bladed scythe, aiming to injure Mei Terumi and obtain her blood. That way, he could activate his curse.
A violently fluctuating magic rune array burst forth with dazzling black light.
Accompanied by Gato's laughter, the ground cracked inch by inch, and a giant puppet arm stretched out, smashing towards Mei Terumi.
Boom.
The masked monster's fusion Ninja Art, the puppet arm summoned by Gato, and Hidan's cursed scythe.
Mei Terumi was instantly engulfed by the Ninja Art. The ground where she stood was shattered by the arm's impact, and debris and dust rose tens of meters high like a volcanic eruption.
"Summoning Jutsu?"
"Strange, I've never seen such a peculiar Summoning Jutsu in the Ninja World."
Rasa stared intently at the puppet arm within the light screen, marveling at the damage it caused.
This destructive power was enough to heavily injure or even directly kill Kage-level experts. Such a battle was overwhelming, completely unlike a Ninja's.
"Gato, huh?"
Nagato also looked at the deep pit, tens of meters in diameter, that had been created, and said, "He can be considered a relatively powerful existence among Kage-level experts. He can be recruited into Akatsuki."
He spoke conservatively.
In fact, even Pain, with his Deva Path abilities, probably couldn't withstand the powerful blow of the puppet arm.
Repulsion also has its limits.
This thing, completely unrelated to Ninja Art, similar to Sunagakure's Puppet Art but even more terrifying and powerful, also came from the Cycle Space.
Nagato's heart, uncharacteristically, felt a hint of panic and confusion.
It was like a king of the forest, who considered himself invincible and surveyed his territory, suddenly seeing an existence seemingly more powerful than himself.
"Is she dead?"
Ōnoki muttered, his eyes filled with anticipation.
Gato's strength was beyond expectation. If he could kill the overconfident Mizukage, he would immediately dispatch Iwagakure forces to the Land of Water.
The smoke and dust dispersed.
In the giant deep pit, Mei Terumi stood unharmed, a fiery arm hovering above her head, steadily catching the falling puppet arm.
"Impossible!"
Gato's laughter stopped abruptly, and he exclaimed in shock, "How can anyone block my Iron Armored Puppet?"
His profession was a puppeteer.
He could control various puppets and mechanical beasts. This puppet arm, in its complete form, was a hundreds-of-meters-tall [Iron Armored Puppet].
Just one arm cost a whopping fifty thousand reward points.
"A puppeteer, huh?"
Mei Terumi looked up at the massive fist, so close it completely obscured her vision.
It had complex and intricate patterns, and its energy veins were all made of precious materials exchanged at great cost.
It would hurt to break it, wouldn't it?
Mei Terumi's lips curved into a smile. Instead of unleashing her most proficient Bloodline Limit, she channeled the energy of her Blazing Mage within her, mixing it with Chakra, to release a fire skill for close-quarters combat.
In an instant,
the gigantic arm blocking the field was struck by a vortex of flames, and the resulting impact pulled at the arm's base on the ground, making a creaking sound.
It almost tore off the massive puppet arm, comparable to a Tailed Beast!
"Stop!"
Gato quickly manipulated the arm to neutralize the impact of the blazing flames, and looking at the fist that had melted into a lump, his heart bled.
Sunagakure,
Rasa sat in the conference hall, displaying the light screen to the Sunagakure high command.
"Kankuro, you're also a puppeteer, aren't you?"
Rasa looked at his son and asked, "Compared to Gato, who is stronger?"
Just Gato's puppet arm already felt extremely troublesome to him; his Magnet Release Ninja Art probably wouldn't be able to stop the opponent's barrage.
"Although we're both puppeteers, our specialized skills are different."
Kankuro thought for a moment and said, "I lean more towards controlling a puppet army, and he controls mechanical puppets with energy veins, while I..."
His fingers moved, and several humanoid puppets appeared, a dark energy swirling around them. One could clearly see the exposed puppet arms had wriggling flesh and blood tissue.
[Crowman Puppet].
It is a biological puppet made from monster corpses and puppet materials. In terms of pure destructive power, it is slightly inferior to the Iron Armored Puppet, but it can cast magic.
Rasa asked with anticipation in his eyes, "Can you defeat Mei Terumi?"
He was uneasy in his heart; the Mizukage's displayed strength seemed to have already surpassed the Kage level.
Kankuro shook his head slightly and said, "It's difficult."
As soon as he finished speaking,
an orange-yellow flaming pumpkin appeared in the sky above Wave Country, slowly descending in a falling posture.
Everyone present, whether mercenary Ninja and rogue samurai, or the experienced Kakuzu and Hidan, stood frozen in a perfectly synchronized manner.
Some timid Ninja even collapsed directly to the ground.
It truly covered the sky.
This flaming pumpkin was so large it seemed like the sun was falling, stretching as far as the eye could see, obscuring more than half of the sky.
The scorching, violent aura, even from a great distance, already made it difficult for everyone to breathe.
The seawater was boiling.
The remaining forests began to burn, and the high temperature distorted the air.
"The boring tricks should end!"
"Now is the Blazing Mage's solo show. Whether you live or die is up to you."
Mei Terumi's smile remained as usual.
She came to Wave Country not just for Momochi Zabuza. After the Mist Hidden Family was established, it was short on funds, and even after encroaching on the Land of Fire's industries, it was still not enough, so they had to continue expanding outwards.
Not only Iwagakure and Sunagakure had their eyes on Wave Country, but Hidden Mist Village did as well.
She was also very aware that spies from various Ninja villages were secretly reporting on the situation in Wave Country, so if that was the case, she would let them see clearly.
While all Kage-level attributes hovered around 40 points,
her, Mei Terumi's, spirit attribute reached 60 points, allowing her to release a purple skill.
