Chapter 38 - Chapter 38: Sea of ​​Trees (Part 2)

Monzaemon shook off the chakra lines that controlled his stand puppet. Since he had to show up, the stand was of no use. Then he opened his arms and finally began to directly control the Chikamatsu.

The puppets, whose movements seemed somewhat dull and stiff, suddenly became extremely agile after being directly controlled by Menzaemon. Hanyu and others, who were stared at by those ten pairs of empty eyes, felt a sudden creepy feeling.

"Retreat, I'll cover you." Hanyu took a deep breath, and after realizing that the other side was definitely not an enemy he could handle, he chose to retreat. Although he was a little unwilling that his first mission ended in failure, he had no choice but to do so, and the headquarters had no objection to such a retreat... After all, Konoha could not expect the village's Genin to be able to deal with a ninja like Monzaemon.

Moreover, the mission of the Hanyu team was to stop the enemy and transmit intelligence. Strictly speaking, their mission cannot be called a failure... After all, they found Monzaemon.

"Hanyu, I think it's meaningless. You can't stop him for long." Nagisa said. Although Hanyu's order was in line with his responsibility as the captain, it was meaningless. How could the other party let them escape so easily?

"Retreat!" Hanyu repeated his order firmly, and just as he put his hands together and prepared to start forming seals, the Chikamatsu Ten were already rushing towards him at an even more unimaginable speed.

But no matter how fast these toys were, Hanyu first technique was still completed first... In this extremely urgent moment, Hanyu was forced to continuously increase his hand-sealing speed, and once Hanyu's first technique was completed, the remaining techniques would follow without interruption.

Water Style: Water Wall!

First, the semi-circular water wall quickly swept away the puppets that were rushing towards Hanyu, and when those things were about to bypass them from both sides, the water array wall collapsed instantly, and then it rushed to the surroundings with a greater force of water.

"Old man, do you think you are standing on a safe place?"

Thinking of this, Hanyu's hands did not stop moving.

Water Style: Exploding Water Wave!

In a flash, a vast ocean appeared in the woods. The scale of Hanyu's technique this time was much larger than before. At this time, he had no way of considering preserving chakra. Therefore, it is exaggerated to say that his technique reversed the process of "great changes in the world".

But Hanyu did not stop his seal until the next technique was completed - Water Style: Mist Hidden Technique.

The surging ocean water had not yet subsided when a thick fog rose from the water surface. In a short moment, it completely concealed the figures of Hanyu and his team members.

The Hidden Mist Technique is a very representative water-based ninjutsu of the Hidden Mist of the Five Great Ninja Villages, but in fact it is not the kind of ninjutsu that is very difficult or confidential. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is an ordinary water-based ninjutsu... The real difficulty is the silent killing technique used in conjunction with the Hidden Mist Technique. Only by combining the two can their mutual value be fulfilled.

Hanyu obviously didn't know any silent killing techniques, but the Mist Hidden Technique was enough for him.

His eyes may not be able to accurately capture the movements of the puppeteer and all his puppets, but with the Mist Hidden Technique, things become different. First of all, this ninjutsu that blocks vision can greatly increase the chances of his teammates' escape; secondly, the mist is now filled with a large amount of Hanyu's chakra, and these chakras expand his perception. In this case, he can at least accurately grasp the position and movement of Monzaemon and the ten puppets.

"Really? It turns out that the so-called Fire Style Ninja is just a term to distract me. Compared with Fire Style, you are obviously better at Water Style. It is commendable that you can make the current decision under such circumstances. However... what's the use?" Menzaemon's voice came from the thick fog.

The Mist Hiding Technique definitely worked, otherwise how could the other party be talking nonsense like this? However, what made Hanyu anxious was that he could clearly feel that his team members did not leave the battlefield directly, but stayed in the mist and did not move.

But now Hanyu can no longer take care of them. The most dangerous person at this moment is undoubtedly himself. There is no doubt that he is the opponent's first target.

Beneath Hanyu's steady breathing was a highly tense spirit. At this moment, he had completely mobilized his five senses. Suddenly, he kicked into the mist on the side of his body, and then a dark figure flew out backwards.

He could sense the movement of the puppet, and there was no way to hide the unique sounds made by the puppet when it moved.

But Hanyu had no time to care about the puppet that was kicked out. He turned around quickly and raised his arm. With a clang, a pair of sharp and barbed claws hit his arm guard.

The trick of using words to distract the enemy was not only used by Hanyu, but also by Monzaemon, but neither side had achieved much success.

Those puppets dressed in white looked very elegant from a distance, but were very ugly up close. They were so ugly that Hanyu had to complain: "If you are the best puppeteer, you should at least make your puppet's like mercury lamps. That way, I can at least be sadistic when doing this."

As he spoke, he twisted his forearm and used his arm guard to break the puppet's claws. Then he pressed his palm on the puppet's shoulder, used the force to lift his body up, and then flew up and hit the puppet's neck with his knee.

With a snap, the puppet's head turned behind it.

However, Hanyu's target was just a puppet, not a human, so this attack would not have any effect other than causing pain in his knee.

The puppet's body suddenly lifted up, and its head returned to its original place.

Sharp blades, crossbows, flames and poisons, one mechanism after another emerged from every joint and every part of the puppet's body, and then it attacked at an even more ferocious speed than before.

With Hanyu's physique and speed, he was simply unstoppable.

Fortunately, he didn't have to resist at all. He just saw the chakra attached to the soles of his feet withdraw, and then he sank under the water... The last time he used the water burst, he wanted to drown the enemy, but this time he wanted to drown himself.

The puppet's movements were indeed incredibly fast, and it was not impossible for the puppet to follow Hanyu into the water. However, he absolutely did not believe that in the deep water with heavy , the puppet could maintain the same speed as on the ground.

What's more, after entering the deep water, Hanyu's speed has increased greatly. With the help of Water Style: Wave Riding Strike, he is as graceful as a swimming fish.

As one side gained strength, the other side lost strength, and Monzaemon actually could no longer do anything to him.

Or maybe Monzaemon could evaporate the entire area of water, but can he do such a thing... No, we should ask if he has the time to do such a thing?

After a fight between Hanyu and the others, Konoha's reinforcements finally arrived. They were not very fast, but they were very timely.
