One Dragon Tail Kick will shatter your Susanoo dream!

When they were still some distance from the shore, the boatman behind them suddenly took off his coat and then hugged Caozhi.

"Sir, this gesture is a bit ambiguous..."

"Go to hell, you bastard!"

The deafening roar continued, and the entire small boat was blown to pieces. After the explosions subsided, Cao Zhi's figure slowly rose onto the water's surface.

"So many explosive tags, what's going on...?"

"Water escape, water dragon bullet technique!"

Suddenly, dozens of figures appeared from the water's surface, and then dozens of water dragons merged together, with a squinty-eyed man standing atop the dragon's head.

"Forbidden Water Release Technique: Giant Dragon Water Slaughter!"

Dozens of water dragon projectiles behind the giant water dragon merged into it, and the giant water dragon instantly expanded several times its original size again before suddenly falling towards the spot where the grass treads on water!

The giant water dragon seemed to have a life of its own, relentlessly following Cao Zhi no matter how he dodged. Knowing he couldn't escape, Cao Zhi became angry.

"Sea Escape, Roar of the Raging Waves!"

The water level rose rapidly, like a natural disaster. The giant water dragon, with a body hundreds of meters long, looked like a small mudfish in the face of the tsunami.

"Damn it, this guy's water jutsu is even more terrifying than the Mizukage's..."

The Third Mizukage glanced at the Anbu members discussing behind him, then waved his hand.

"Let's retreat back to the island and talk about it later!"

Kusashi's Sea Release technique not only easily shattered the Mizukage's forbidden jutsu, but even destroyed a small island...

The Third Mizukage raised his hand, stopping the other Anbu members from forming hand seals, and then slowly stepped forward.

"The leader of Kusagakure is indeed extraordinary after meeting you today..."

Although Cao Zhi was curious as to how the other party knew her identity, she couldn't bring herself to hit someone who was smiling at her, so she gently patted her chest.

"That really scared me to death, Lord Mizukage! Your village's way of welcoming people is quite unique..."

The third generation of Mizukage expressed it with a calm and detached attitude.

"It's all a misunderstanding. Some petty people have misled us into thinking we're facing an invading enemy..."

"May I ask, Water Shadow, what kind of villain are you?"

When Kusanagi asked the question, the Third Mizukage squinted his eyes and answered.

"A creature suddenly sprang out of the ground, half black and half white, with a very peculiar appearance..."

Kusashi lowered his head, realizing that Black Zetsu was up to his old tricks again. Given that he had already stolen the Hidden Mist Village's ninja sword and had also sneaked in, their strong reaction was understandable…

Kusaji stared at the Third Mizukage for a long time before making a comment.

"Can you open your eyes and look at me? This is very rude..."

"I've opened my eyes as wide as I can, Grass Shadow!"

After a round of feigned politeness, Kusanagi accepted the other party's invitation and legitimately entered the village for a visit. Having witnessed the other party's ninjutsu, the Third Mizukage had already given up the idea of ​​killing him.

After dinner, the Third Mizukage was followed by a baby-faced man who introduced Kusashi to the character.

"This is our village's young genius, Yagura!"

"His Water Release skills are also quite impressive. Having heard of Lord Kusakage's amazing Water Release techniques, I've come here to pay my respects..."

Cao Zhi waved his hands repeatedly, and then said.

"There's nothing to see here. Besides, mine was Ocean Release; your Water Release techniques are really weak..."

Faced with Kusashi's overt and covert provocations, Yagura gripped the coral staff in his hand tightly, but still responded politely.

"There's really nothing much to see. The family has prepared some small gifts and songstresses. Please, Lord Kusakage, take your time to enjoy the sights..."

"Oh my, there's a songstress here! Let's hurry up and go!"

Then, led by Yagura, the group left Kirigakure, as the other party explained.

"Our clan resides on another island, not far ahead. I suppose Lord Kusakage wouldn't mind..."

"No problem, but if the songstress is ugly, then it's not so certain!"

The group hurried on their way when suddenly Yagura, who was leading the way, stopped and flashed to the side with the Third Mizukage. Then, countless shuriken mixed with explosive tags were thrown at Kusashi.

When the bombing stopped, a faint blue light shield emanated from Cao Zhi's body, showing no signs of injury.

"Did you enjoy it?"

The Third Mizukage looked solemn, then gazed at Kusashi.

"I didn't expect that you not only excel in Water Release techniques, but also in defensive ninjutsu. Is this a new bloodline limit or some kind of instantaneous ninjutsu?"

Kusaji watched the gradually appearing Mist Ninja, but did not answer the Third Mizukage's question.

"Heh heh, the remaining Seven Ninja Swordsmen, plus a bunch of weaklings, are you sure you can handle me?"

The Third Mizukage took a step back and then let out a loud roar.

"He's skilled in close-quarters combat and martial arts; I don't believe he has no weaknesses!"

Dozens of Kaguya clan members, their bodies covered in bone spurs and their eyes filled with fanaticism, appeared.

The middle-aged man leading the group stretched out his arms, revealing sharp, slender bone spurs in his palms.

"By order of the Mizukage, kill this guy!"

Ten meters away from the grass mushroom, Kaguya ninja spread her hands, and countless tiny bone spikes appeared from her fingertips, shooting towards the grass mushroom.

Cao Zhi remained completely calm, simply slapping the ground. Countless tiny blue dragon phantoms appeared, blocking all the bone spikes and shattering them into fragments.

Seeing that the bone spike attack was ineffective, Chief Kaguya opted for close-quarters combat, with hard bone spikes erupting from her entire body, especially the bones in her chest, which were particularly thick, as if she were wearing bone armor...

"Hehe, in this state, no one can break through my defense..."

Then, after only a brief exchange, several "crack" sounds rang out, accompanied by wails. The Kaguya clan chief's eyes turned bloodshot, and all the thick bones in his chest were broken. Kusaji, like a demon, stepped on his opponent's chest with a smile.

With a slight exertion of force, the newly protruding bone of the Kaguya clan chief was once again stomped into her chest...

"This can't be real. Even the Mizukage couldn't defeat the Kaguya clan leader so easily in close combat..."

"This guy really has no weaknesses..."

Although the rest of the Kaguya clan were somewhat frightened by this scene, their blood was already burning to the extreme, and they did not hesitate at all. Instead, they all pulled out thin bone chains from their backs and swung them at Kusanagi.

"Die, you arrogant bastard!"

"Release the clan leader, you damned bastard!"

The moment Cao Zhi looked up, her right arm stretched out, and blue light waves instantly condensed into a dragon shadow, rushing into the crowd with lightning speed. The screams lasted only a few seconds, and then the Kaguya ninja who rushed to the front was left with only bone fragments and a dozen or so charred corpses.

"monster!"

"This guy, there's no way we can beat him!"

The Third Mizukage shook his head in disappointment upon seeing this. He had thought that by choosing to stay inside the island, he could prevent the opponent from using the catastrophic Water Release technique again, and with the help of the village, he could easily defeat the opponent. However, he did not expect that Kusashi's taijutsu was equally formidable!

Yagura's face was grim as he respectfully addressed the Third Mizukage.

"Lord Mizukage, let me lead the remaining seven to surround and kill the Kusakura. It seems that the Kaguya clan's brutes are of no use!"

The Third Mizukage lowered his head, pondered for a moment, and then slowly nodded.

"Be careful, I'll provide remote ninjutsu support at any time!"

Yagura then led the remaining six members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist and quickly rushed towards Kusashimi.

The Third Mizukage would occasionally use Water Release ninjutsu from his palm to interrupt Kusanagi's hand seals. Although he was always quick to respond, it wasn't very effective except for interrupting the Great Fireball Technique once.

The Third Mizukage watched as Kusashi, engrossed in fighting the Seven Ninja and Yagura, lost all sense of peace. A bead of cold sweat dripped from his hair as he silently complained to himself.

"Damn it, I clearly interrupted his hand seals, but why can he still use his Water Release technique so smoothly?!"

"Could it be that this guy's water-style ninjutsu only requires shouting it out?"

"The reason for forming hand seals is to conceal the nature of instantaneous ninjutsu?"
