Yahiko's lips twitched slightly; he didn't know how to answer the question.
Nagato spoke slowly, "Comparing him to the former Shura of the ninja world, you really think too highly of him."
Upon hearing Nagato's words, you immediately understood that Hanzo's strength was far inferior to Madara Uchiha's, and you slightly raised your chin, "I should be able to fight him!"
Yahiko looked at the girl in front of him, who was only sixteen or seventeen years old, with suspicion in his eyes.
Although he knows you are quite strong, Hanzo's reputation is not to be challenged easily.
"You don't believe me?" You keenly sensed the doubt in their eyes and felt a little displeased.
"Tanuki, of course we believe you! But the cost of this battle is unknown, and as partners of Akatsuki, we can't let you do whatever you want!" Konan suddenly said.
You were slightly taken aback when Xiao Nan called you "Tanuki".
"Why...why would you want to call me by another name?" You looked at Xiao Nan somewhat awkwardly.
"Because you were able to tell me your two names, you've already considered us friends from the bottom of your heart. Although I don't know the origin of the name 'Li Nu,' I know it must mean a lot to you," Xiao Nan said with a smile, her eyes full of sincerity.
"You're so great, Xiao Nan! From today onwards, you'll be second in my heart!"
"Hmm? The second one?" Xiao Nan raised her eyebrows in surprise.
“The first is Uchiha Madara,” Nagato explained calmly.
Xiao Nan immediately understood, and shook her head with a smile. She knew that although you were a bit willful and naive, you were very kind and righteous at heart.
As you continue your journey through the streets and alleys of Amegakure, the atmosphere becomes somewhat heavy.
Hanzo's arrest warrant is like an invisible net that could engulf you at any moment.
You walked silently behind, your mind preoccupied with your duel with Hanzo.
Suddenly, a series of noisy footsteps approached from ahead. You immediately became alert, stopped in your tracks, and your hands instinctively reached for your weapons.
A group of Amegakure ninjas came into view, led by a tall man with a cold gaze.
"Who are you? Why are you sneaking around here?" the man shouted, his eyes revealing a hint of wariness and hostility.
Just as you were about to speak, Nagato stopped you with a look.
Yahiko stepped forward and said with a smile, "We are just merchants passing through. We're taking shelter from the rain here."
The man clearly didn't believe Yahiko's words. He carefully examined the four of them, his gaze lingering on their black cloaks for a moment. "Take off your cloaks and let me check them!" he commanded.
Everyone felt a chill; if they took off their cloaks, they might be recognized.
You quietly slipped your hand inside your cloak, gripped the kunai, and prepared to strike at any moment.
Just then, Xiao Nan suddenly took a step forward, produced a paper flower in her hand, and handed it to the man. "Brother, we really are merchants. This is a local specialty we brought from out of town. Please accept it."
The man looked at the paper flower in Xiao Nan's hand and hesitated for a moment.
Just as he reached out to catch the paper flower, you swiftly threw a kunai at the wall beside you.
The sound of the kunai hitting the wall attracted the attention of the ninjas, and you took the opportunity to quickly escape the scene.
Weaving through the narrow streets, the shouts and footsteps of Amegakure ninjas echoed behind us.
Finally, you stopped in an abandoned warehouse. The four of you leaned against the wall, panting heavily.
"That was close! We almost got discovered." Yahiko wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"It's all because of that Hanzo that we're now treated like rats in the street," you said angrily, slamming your fist on the wooden crate next to you.
"We can't keep hiding like this; we have to find a way to fight back."
"But what should we do?" Konan looked at Nagato, her eyes filled with anticipation.
Nagato was silent for a moment. "We need more intelligence to understand Hanzo's whereabouts and weaknesses. Only then will we have a chance to defeat him."
You nodded. "I'll go gather intelligence. You guys wait for me here."
"No, it's too dangerous. Let's go together," Yahiko immediately objected.
“Yahiko is right, we’re a team, we can’t let you go on this risk alone,” Konan chimed in.
Looking into their determined eyes, you felt a surge of emotion.
In this strange parallel world, they are your most trustworthy partners.
"Okay, let's go together."
After a short rest, you set off again, carefully avoiding the ninjas of Amegakure, and headed towards Hanzo's residence.
Along the way, you use your unique senses to keep an eye on your surroundings and make sure there is no danger.
As you approach Hanzo's residence, you find it heavily guarded. You climb a large tree and observe the situation from above.
You discover that there are many sentries around the mansion, and some ninjas are also patrolling.
"Looks like it won't be easy to get in," you whispered, jumping down from the tree.
"We can't force our way in; we need to find a way to distract the guards," Nagato said after a moment of thought.
"I have a way." Your eyes suddenly lit up, and a sly smile appeared on your lips.
He took a smoke bomb out of his pocket and threw it towards the other side of the mansion.
The smoke grenade exploded instantly, producing a loud bang and billowing thick smoke.
While the guards are distracted by the smoke bombs, you quickly rush toward the mansion gates.
They successfully entered the mansion, but were quickly discovered by the guards inside.
You wield your katana, skillfully dodging enemy attacks while constantly looking for opportunities to counterattack.
Yahiko and Nagato also unleashed their full strength, engaging in a fierce battle with the enemy.
Meanwhile, Konan supported everyone with her paper magic, creating various paper weapons and fortifications for them.
During the battle, you discover a room that appears to be Hanzo's study. On a whim, you rush toward the room, but just as you are about to reach the door, a ninja blocks your path.
The ninja had a cold look in his eyes, and he held a sharp long sword in his hand. Without saying a word, he slashed at you.
You quickly defended yourself, and the two fought back and forth, locked in a fierce and evenly matched battle.
Meanwhile, Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan are also engaged in a fierce battle.
They were surrounded by more and more enemies and were all wounded to varying degrees, but they still fought tenaciously without showing any sign of retreating.
"Fire Release: Roar of the Flame Dragon!" you shouted, and a huge flame dragon spewed out from your hand, rushing towards the surrounding enemies.
Wherever the Fiery Dragon went, enemies were engulfed by flames, letting out painful screams.
The enemies who had been surrounding Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan were also startled by the sudden attack and retreated.
You seized the opportunity to rush to Hanzo's study, kicked open the door, and burst inside.
Chapter 81 - Dawn Robe
The study was empty, with only some documents and books scattered on the floor.
"Damn it, he got away!" You slam your fist on the table.
Upon hearing Nagato's voice, you sensed something was wrong and rushed out.
The scene before your eyes instantly ignites your anger to its peak. You see Hanzo tightly gripping Konan's slender neck. Konan's face turns pale from lack of oxygen, and her legs kick helplessly in the air.
Yahiko's fists were clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white and veins bulged on his forehead, while Nagato's eyes were filled with anger and helplessness, and his body trembled slightly. They stood by anxiously, but dared not approach him easily.
When Hanzo saw you, he couldn't help but become wary. He dared not underestimate this wicked girl who could control ninjas in a wide area.
His eyes grew even colder, his brows furrowed, but the pressure in his hand didn't lessen at all. "Is it you who ruined my plans?"
As Hanzo tightened his grip, Konan managed to squeeze out a few words from her throat, "Go...go!"
Her eyes were full of concern for her companions; even though she was in danger herself, she still hoped that they could escape safely.
Seeing Xiaonan's pained expression, red rapidly spread through your originally black eyes. Complex and mysterious shikigami runes spun quickly in your Mangekyou Sharingan, emanating a chilling aura.
Upon seeing this, Hanzo inwardly cried out in alarm. Before he could react, he suddenly felt as if the chakra within his body was being imprisoned by an invisible force.
The once abundant strength was rapidly dissipating, and the body was becoming increasingly heavy, with both speed and strength greatly diminished.
Seizing this fleeting opportunity, Nagato unhesitatingly launched a flying kick, a kick imbued with his anger and hatred towards Hanzo, which landed squarely on Hanzo's body.
Hanzo was kicked away, and his hand was forced to let go of Konan.
Nagato caught Konan and carefully placed her on the ground, checking on her with concern.
Yahiko and you immediately ran to Konan's side, forming a circle around her and protecting her in the middle.
"Xiao Nan, are you alright?" Your eyes were fixed on Xiao Nan, not missing a single subtle change in her expression.
Xiao Nan coughed a few times, shook her head, indicating that she was fine. Although her face was still pale, her eyes revealed a hint of relief and reassurance.
Hanzo slowly stood up from the ground, dusted himself off, and looked at everyone with shock and confusion in his eyes. "Uchiha?"
His voice carried a hint of disbelief. He had initially thought it was just an ordinary, troublesome opponent, but it turned out to be a ninja from the Uchiha clan.
You stepped forward, shielding them behind you, your eyes filled with provocation and disdain. "So what if they are? Useless trash!"
Upon seeing your arrogance, Hanzo's initial compassion for talented individuals vanished instantly, replaced by boundless killing intent.
"Even if you are a genius, you haven't fully matured yet. If you're this arrogant, then there's no point in you ever maturing!"
After saying that, he flashed forward and rushed towards you, the weapon in his hand gleaming coldly and exuding a deadly aura.
"Be careful! He's extremely skilled with poison!" Yahiko shouted a warning from the side, his voice hoarse with tension, knowing all too well how formidable Hanzo's poison skills were.
"Understood!" you replied briefly, but your eyes remained fixed on Hanzo's every move, not daring to relax for a moment.
You quickly formed hand seals, and then two samurai swords appeared in your hands.
The blade is long and sharp; with a gentle swing through the air, it produces a whooshing sound.
The red scabbard is intricately decorated with beautiful and mysterious patterns in black lacquer and mother-of-pearl, while the hilt is also decorated with black background and red patterns, exuding an ancient and majestic aura.
"Watch closely, I'll only teach you once!" The blade crackled with electricity as it sliced through the air.
Hanzo's hand gripping the weapon tingled slightly, and he was secretly astonished. Was this girl really only sixteen or seventeen years old? Her strength was simply monstrous.
A flicker of disbelief crossed his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by a fierce look.
"You dare to get distracted while fighting me? You're asking for trouble!" Seeing Hanzo's disrespect, your movements became even more ferocious and sharp.
On the other side, Konan had recovered and stood up with the help of Yahiko and Nagato.
The three stood together, their eyes fixed on the two people locked in fierce combat on the battlefield, their hearts filled with tension and worry.
They initially thought you were just talking, but they didn't expect you to actually have the strength to fight Hanzo.
As the battle continues, your power seems to grow stronger, and your eyes reveal an excitement and fervor, as if you are immersed in the thrill of the battle.
Hanzo found it increasingly difficult to withstand your attacks. After fighting for so long, his stamina was gradually failing, while you seemed to be getting stronger with each battle.
He knew that things couldn't continue like this, and he had to use his trump card.
He suddenly opened his mouth and exhaled, and a colorless and odorless poisonous gas spread rapidly.
Sensing danger, you immediately use the Body Flicker Technique to quickly create distance between yourself and Hanzo.
"Golden Escape? Golden Chain Strangulation!" You quickly formed hand seals.
Suddenly, several thick golden chains emerged. These chains, as if alive, stretched, bent, and coiled flexibly in the air, carrying a powerful force as they rapidly wrapped around Hanzo.
Hanzo was caught off guard and his body was instantly bound tightly by the golden chains. He struggled desperately, but found that the chains were as strong as steel and difficult to break free from.
You see the opportunity, leap, raise your long sword high, and thrust it at Hanzo with a determination to kill.
Hanzo stared in horror. In that critical moment, he used all his strength to finally break free from the golden chain, but he was still a step too slow. The long sword slashed and cut off one of his arms.
"Gold Release?" Hanzo stared at the golden chain on the ground, his eyes filled with shock and confusion.
He had never heard of this chakra attribute before, and even Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan next to him looked equally bewildered.
They know that this means you possess a unique ability.
"Now that you know about the existence of the Gold Release, I can't let you live any longer." As you spoke, the Mangekyou Sharingan in your eyes spun even faster.
"Look me in the eye, these are your last words!"
Hanzo attempted to launch another attack, but to his horror, he discovered that his body seemed to be suppressed in place by a powerful force, unable to move.
As you approach step by step, the blade gleams coldly, foreshadowing Hanzo's death.
