"Sword Art: Crescent Moon Slash!"
With a cold shout from Uzuki Yugao, a hundred-meter-long white crescent slash instantly swung from her hand, splitting Kisame's Giant Water Prison in two at an incredible speed, leaving a straight sword mark hundreds of meters long on the ground.
"The women of the Ninja Union are truly not to be trifled with."
"I might need to report this to Nagato."
Kakuzu was slightly shocked to see Kisame's massive water prison cut in half. Even he would have had to avoid Kisame's attack.
"Where did this woman, who is so skilled in swordsmanship, come from? Why hadn't we heard of her before, and what is her connection to Konoha? How does she know Konoha's Root techniques?"
Uchiha Obito frowned as he watched Uzuki Yugao's swordsmanship. He had thought that Kisame's Giant Water Prison would secure their recruitment of her, but now it seemed unlikely.
"Well, Yugao, you secretly practiced such a powerful technique."
On the other side, Uchiha Izumi's Mangekyou Sharingan slowly spun, and seeing Yugao's high-powered sword technique, she smiled slightly.
This technique would be hers as well in the future!
Shishou couldn't help but grin when he heard Uzuki Yugao's cold shout and saw the technique she used.
Because he was the one who named that technique for Yugao!
Splash!!!
The enormous slash dispersed, and the massive water ball shattered, flooding the area. Pakura, Kisame, and Shinnō were all swept away by the water towards a low-lying area in the distance.
Uzuki Yugao commanded her ink hawk, flying to Pakura's position, scooping her up, and taking to the sky.
Meanwhile, after the initial chaos, Kisame managed to stabilize himself in the flood along with Shinnō, standing on the newly formed lake, looking angrily at the two women in the sky.
Having his two most prized techniques broken by these two women of the Ninja Union made Kisame feel extremely frustrated.
Shinnō, too, looked gravely at the two women in the sky.
He hadn't expected such powerful figures to be hidden within the Ninja Union.
The slash Yugao had just performed, in Shinnō's well-traveled eyes, had surpassed even the samurai leader Mifune of the Land of Iron in both swordsmanship and power.
If Shinnō wanted to take down this woman, opening only six gates of the Eight Gates technique wouldn't be enough.
However, opening the seventh gate would be too much even for Shinnō, who had mastered advanced physical revitalization techniques and transplanted some of Hashirama's cells.
Moreover, Shinnō didn't fully trust Kisame and Obito yet and didn't want to reveal his trump card.
Pakura, standing beside Yugao, glared at Kisame and Shinnō on the water's surface, forming a single hand seal.
Curse Seal Mode: Activate!
As the Sage energy within her body surged, Pakura's hands, covered in curse marks, quickly formed seals, and countless fireballs appeared behind her.
Then, all the Scorch Release fireballs behind Pakura fused in pairs, eventually forming a pigeon egg-sized, dazzling white fireball emitting a radiant glow.
Seeing the white flaming sphere in Pakura's hand, Yugao instinctively stepped back, wanting to distance herself.
Even though she hadn't seen this technique before, the terrifying chakra emanating from the fireball indicated that its power was extraordinary.
As soon as the white fireball formed, Pakura extended her hand towards Kisame and Shinnō, saying calmly:
"Sage Art: Blazing White Sage Orb!"
As soon as she spoke, Pakura flicked her finger, and the white fireball shot towards Kisame and Shinnō like a meteor.
Seeing the oncoming fireball, Kisame snorted, "Let's see how I'll break this!"
These two women had repeatedly broken his prized techniques, and Kisame wanted to seize this opportunity to regain his pride.
Clashing ninjutsu head-on was Kisame's forte!
With swift hand signs, the water beneath Kisame surged, forming a massive shark-shaped water bullet that surrounded him.
Water Style: Super Shark Bomb Jutsu!
Shinnō, on the other hand, seeing the approaching fireball, instantly opened several gates of the Eight Gates technique and leaped away to safety.
He could tell that this technique was not something simple and decided to evade first.
"Snap!"
In mid-air, Pakura snapped her fingers, and the white fireball exploded violently.
Boom!!!
A blinding white light flashed in the forest, as Pakura's Blazing White Sage Orb detonated, creating a spherical white fireball over a hundred meters in diameter, accompanied by a deafening roar.
The intense heatwave spread outwards, evaporating all the water within several hundred meters and withering the surrounding plants, leaving the area devoid of life.
A few minutes later.
The fiery explosion dissipated, and the figures of Kisame and Shinnō were nowhere to be seen.
Kisame's giant water prison was also completely evaporated, leaving behind a spherical crater.
Pakura looked emotionlessly at the center of the explosion.
Water Style might defend against regular Fire Style, but her Scorch Release aimed to evaporate the water within the enemy's body. For Kisame to use Water Style against her Sage-powered Scorch Release was suicidal.
Suddenly, the space at the center of the explosion fluctuated, and Uchiha Obito emerged, carrying Kisame and a badly burned Shinnō.
Having entered the Kamui dimension in time, Obito had managed to save Kisame and Shinnō from the explosion.
Standing on the ink hawk, Pakura saw Obito appear and smirked.
"Since you interfered, it means your Akatsuki has lost this duel."
Hearing Pakura's words, Kisame glared at her unwillingly. Though he didn't want to admit it, he had lost this fight.
If Obito hadn't intervened, Kisame would have been in serious trouble, if not dead.
"We're leaving." Obito looked at Kakuzu in the distance, gritted his teeth, and took Kisame and Shinnō back into the Kamui dimension.
Since Kisame had failed, he had to honor the agreement and stop targeting the women of the Ninja Union.
Besides, the battle had already attracted the attention of Konoha's guards in Fire Source City. It was best to leave before the Flying Thunder God users arrived.
Seeing the three leave, Kurotsuchi was about to speak when Obito grabbed him from behind and pulled him into the Kamui dimension.
"These women are truly remarkable."
Kakuzu gave Pakura and her companions a deep look before turning towards Fire Source City.
The strength displayed by the women of the Ninja Union reassured him about his savings.
He decided to withdraw his funds from other banks and deposit more into the Ninja Union.
And since he hadn't caused any trouble, he had nothing to fear from these three powerful women.
