Inside the ice-sealed canyon, Minato's right arm instantly froze from the terrifying low temperature. In a "flash", he lost all sensation!
Yusuke approached slowly. A large hole gaped in his chest, but strangely, it seemed to be just an empty void — as if there were no organs inside at all.
This was the ice elemental state of the Ice-Ice Fruit! Unless someone could seal him, Yusuke was essentially immortal, able to elementalize his body at will.
"Impossible... This can't be! Th-th-this..." Minato's face contorted with horror.
He watched helplessly as Yusuke's body returned to its original state, without a single trace of injury.
Minato teetered on the brink of breakdown.
"You! You knew all along that you couldn't die, didn't you?" Minato growled, recalling his earlier actions.
"What do you think?" Yusuke retorted. "Don't tell me you thought you could actually hit me?"
"If that's the case..." Minato's realization dawned.
The tide had turned against him. He had to escape and regroup!
"Still thinking of using the Flying Thunder God Technique?" Yusuke read his intentions effortlessly.
In a fluid motion, he flipped his palm, revealing an exquisite sealing scroll. He activated it instantly!
This chakra sealing scroll, exchanged for 50,000 Villain Points, could easily seal Kage-level chakra. It drained the opponent's internal chakra continuously, preventing them from manipulating it!
Sealed, Minato felt his internal chakra gush out like a bursting dam, surging towards the scroll in torrents. Suddenly, he could no longer sense any chakra within his body...
Horror, terror, and trembling! A wave of fear instantly flooded Minato's mind. He had originally calculated that even if he couldn't defeat Yusuke, he would reserve enough chakra to escape.
But at the moment when he was about to use the Flying Thunder God Technique to flee, he was bizarrely sealed! He couldn't access the chakra within his body. Which meant...
He had been captured?!!
This realization filled Minato with endless dread! He absolutely couldn't be caught! The consequences would be even worse than Konoha's devastating defeat!
After being sealed, Minato was no different from an ordinary person. He couldn't move any part of his body, standing rigidly on the ground. Only his eyes and mouth could still move.
"Yusuke Kamizuki! Y-y-you!" He stuttered in fear, "Let me go quickly! If you capture me, the Third Hokage will definitely mobilize Konoha's entire strength to attack your Kirigakure! Release me, and consider this battle a great victory for you—"
Slap——!!
An extremely crisp slapping sound rang out!
"Huff... That felt good." Yusuke slowly exhaled.
A crystal-clear handprint immediately appeared on the right side of Minato's face!
"Right now, you're just a prisoner. What right do you have to negotiate with me?"
Minato now only felt a stinging pain on his face! He glared at Yusuke with angry eyes.
Slap——!!
Yusuke delivered a backhand, directly slapping Minato's face!
"What are you looking at?"
[ Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 20,000 Villain Points ]
Satisfying! Yusuke's face beamed with that wonderful feeling. Just slapping someone's face could earn him so many Villain Points.
If he could actually get his hands on Kushina and then tell Minato about it, wouldn't he gain even more Villain Points than from slapping? Yusuke was already starting to look forward to it.
Minato's breathing became rapid, his heart racing with extreme urgency. He absolutely could not be captured!
The consequences would be dire if he were.
Despite only two battle encounters with this Ice God, Minato sensed that Yusuke harbored terrifying violent tendencies. It would be bad enough if he himself fell into Yusuke's hands, but if Kushina were to be captured...
Minato didn't dare imagine the consequences.
He desperately tried to activate the chakra within his body, but it was all in vain. He couldn't feel any chakra at all.

Outside the canyon, the battle between Shisui and Kisame had also reached a fever pitch!
Water Release: Thousand Hungry Sharks!
Kisame frantically gathered chakra! Across the entire lake surface, thousands of water release sharks leapt out, rushing towards Shisui!
At this moment, the three tomoe in Shisui's Sharingan began to spin frantically, finally transforming into the Mangekyō Sharingan!
Kotoamatsukami Mangekyō!
At this stage of the battle, Shisui had to reveal his true abilities! Although doing so might expose his possession of the Mangekyō Sharingan, he couldn't worry about that now!
Susanoo!
Dark green chakra erupted from Shisui's body! A dark green Susanoo immediately appeared on the battlefield, directly in its second form!
❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆
Inside the ice-sealed canyon, Yusuke also sensed that extremely strong chakra.
"Kisame might not be able to handle it." He muttered to himself.
An ice pillar immediately appeared under Yusuke's feet, rising continuously. After about ten seconds, it formed a huge ice pillar platform.
From here, he could see the dark green Susanoo not far away within his line of sight.
The battle over there had completely entered a heated stage!
