The Monkey King nodded and imdiately shouted, "Transformation: Adamantine Staff!"
With another puff of white smoke, the monkey king disappeared.
Almost at the sa ti, Enma perford the transformation technique, Sandai leaped high in the sky, it was as if he flew up montarily.
When the body of Sarutobi Hiruzen was midair, the Adamantine Staff elongated rapidly as it penetrated the white smoke, reached the feet of Sandai, and extended further at the lightning speed.
The speed of elongation was far beyond the imagination of anyone, and in just a few breaths, Sandai caught up with the flying queue of the Ice Mirrors.
'Uh… is that also how it works!?' – Suijin saw that Sandai used the Adamantine Staff and almost caught up with him, and he was taken aback!
Without waiting for Suijin to recover, Sandai who was just behind the ice mirrors printed so hand seals at a fast pace, took a deep breath, his chest bulging to the limit, and then shouted,
"Fire Release: Fire Dragon Fla Bullet!"
WHooooosh!
The mont Sandai spit out the hot billowing fire Jutsu, the red-hot bellowing fire swallowed the long line of ice mirrors floating in the air.
However, Suijin had already reacted before, the mont Sandai's seals were completed, he had already used the Water Clone Technique and his Suijin body had already escaped under the fluorescent cover of the Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals in the moonlight.
Therefore, although the Ice mirrors were damaged, because the Jutsu used by Sandai was very powerful even though it is just a B-Class Fire Jutsu, Suijin still wasn't swallowed by the flas.
Gently landing on a tree in the forest, Suijin raised his head to see the flas that illuminated the dark forest with orange translucent light and muttered, "The old bones have not deteriorated yet!?"
Sandai also landed on a big tree on the opposite side not far away, holding the shrunken Adamantine Staff, and stared coldly at Suijin.
Seeing the cold look he was getting, Suijin chuckled, "Hokage-Sama is really very experienced, surprisingly, he forced to co out of the Ice Mirrors, it appears that you still haven't gotten old, huh, Sarutobi Hiruzen-dono!?"
Sandai coldly glared at Suijin and said, "You dare to enter my Konoha and cause such chaos, no matter your identity and affiliation, you will not escape today!"
Looking at the murderous intent of Sandai, Suijin smirked and decided to play with him for a bit. "Don't be so sure, Sarutobi Hiruzen, the person responsible for the Kyuubi's chaos, and the death of Konohagakure's beloved Yondai Hokage and his wife is still on the loose, your words don't hold much weight!"
"What, you are…!?" – before Sarutobi could ask anything, Sauijin interrupted him, "Hahaha… does that shock you? You want to know more about it, don't you? Too bad Hokage, coz' I ain't giving out anymore!"
Frankly speaking, Kuroto has never liked Sandai Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen is unworthy of the epithet, 'God of Shinobi!' After all, his strength is too weak compared to Shodai-Sama!
How many people are capable of defeating Senju Hashirama in the history of the Shinobi World, even if the Otsutsuki of the mythical era are taken into account?
The answer may not be clear, but one thing is clear, it is that Sarutobi Hiruzen is not among them!
Not to ntion, Sandai acts like an amiable old grandpa, but in actuality, he is a hypocritical old coot, who just silently let Konoha deteriorate, in the na of his personal kindness!
Where was that kindness, when Uzumaki Naruto had to bear the hatred of the entire village!?
Where was that kindness, when Uchiha Itachi had to bear the burden of killing his entire clan, hatred of the only brother he loved so much, and the fate of death as a rogue-nin!?
Sarutobi Hiruzen isn't kind!
If he was, then he couldn't have let such cruelty befall the citizens of his village!
He is just an old coot, who is hesitant to get rid of the tumor plaguing and deteriorating Konoha internally because he believes that the tumor is still necessary for the stability of the village!
Whether in terms of personal strength or character, he is unworthy of being a Hokage!
Calming himself down, Suijin focused at the front, because no matter how weak compared to the Shodai Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen is still not soone to be taken lightly, after all, his teacher Orochimaru also suffered so miserably at the hands of Sandai in the main story, and currently the geezer is a decade younger, not soone Suijin can casually ignore, with the current strength of Suijin body!
Just the Fire Style Jutsu overhead clearly indicates that Sandai has an imnse chakra pool!
Coupled with being hailed as the 'Professor' because of his proficiency and mastery of all the ninjutsu Konoha has to offer, be that Bokijutsu, Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, Fuinjutsu, Kinjutsu, Juinjutsu, and more!
Anyone with a non-overwhelming strength will feel a headache when dealing with him.
Thinking of this, Suijin suddenly thought, 'I don't know when will Shisui arrive?'
Since he didn't want Sandai to take the opportunity, so making up his mind, Suijin started printing hand seals, "Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique!"
Suijin expelled a large volu of water high in the air from his mouth, that cascaded down like a giant waterfall at Sandai.
Sandai's expression remained unchanged and he easily avoided the attack by leaping back using the Adamantine Staff.
Suijin naturally expected such a thing to happen and didn't expect the 'Great Waterfall Technique' to cause any harm to the Professor, the only reason he used this technique was that he needed a huge amount of water vapor that would be produced because of the heat left by the previous Fire Release Jutsu used by Sandai.
Without waiting for a mont, Sauijin printed the hand seals and stomped heavily on the ground with his right leg, "Water Release: Water Formation Wall!"
As soon as his feet landed, a wall of water rose from the ground and shot high, but Suijin wasn't finished yet, as he put his palm against the high-pressure water wall and shouted,
"Ice Release: Ice Condensation!"
Under the action of the Ice nature chakra, the high wall of water was instantly frozen into an ice wall.
On the other side of the wall, Sandai stared at Suijin's action with a shocked, and doubtful expression.
He was really shocked at the volu of the Chakra the other party was using in all of his techniques, but he was doubtful as to why would he make an ice wall between the two of them?
It couldn't be that he thinks that just a re wall of ice will give him the opportunity to escape, right?
However, without giving him much ti to wait, feeling the sudden drop in the temperature because of the cold ice wall. Sandai looked at the sudden darkened sky that hid the full moon behind a layer of dark clouds.
With a thinking expression, Sandai analyzed, the 'Fire Dragon Fla Bullet' I used heated the air too much, the 'Great Waterfall Technique' he used increased the moisture in the surroundings creating hot vapor, and finally the Ice Wall he used cooled down the rising vapor leading to the formation of rainclouds above us, that will rain at any mont… oh no!'
The clouds were blocking the moonlight and Sandai imdiately, guessed the intention of the enemy, but it was already too late to stop him.
Pitter-patter…
Without making them wait too much, it soon began to rain.
Suijin hiding on the other side of the Ice wall laughed loudly, "Will the one entitled as the 'God of Shinobi' be able to resist the power of nature!?"
At this ti, a lot of the Anbu appeared at the side of Sandai.
Looking at the huge ice wall before them, everyone had a solemn expression!
The arrival of the Anbu made Suijin frown and imdiately said, "Hokage-dono, I suggest that you better send away these miscellaneous fishes, or…" – Suijin didn't need to speak any further, as he knew Sarutobi Hiruzen was wise enough to understand what could be the consequences if not.
Suijin doesn't want to kill the Anbu ninjas, after all, everything he is doing is to make sure that the damage Konoha suffers is the least, and if he; himself was to kill the Anbu Shinobi, then there would be no point in doing everything!
Besides, Suijin is already tired of keeping his strength on the sa level as Sandai, he isn't sure whether he would be able to control his strength to the level that he doesn't hurt the Anbu mbers.
Sandai also knew what it ans to fight an Ice Style shinobi on a rainy day, and understands that the Anbu wouldn't able to do much in this level of battle, therefore, he told them, "Step back!"
So of the Anbu tried to retort,
"Hokage-Sama, please let us fight him!"
"Yes, Hokage-Sama, it is our duty to protect Konoha from the likes of him!"
"We will not let the 'Will of Fire' we inherited from our predecessors to be trampled upon, nor will we let so bounty-nin, disrupt the peace that so many of our own died for!"
Sandai shook his head, "It truly warms this old man's heart that each of the Konoha Shinobi inherits the 'Will of Fire' in their hearts, but let your Hokage protect you this ti, the enemy is not soone to be taken lightly, I do not wish for my people to die before , therefore, you will all spread around to make sure he doesn't escape, while I will personally deal with him! This is an order!" – The majestic montum displayed by Sandai left everyone in awe, and they subconsciously couldn't refute Hokage-Sama's command.
All the Anbu mbers, including the Hokage Guards, spread far away in a huge circle, enclosing both Sandai-Sama and Suijin within it.
Although everyone was far away, each one was at the battle-ready state. If there was even a single mont where the fight turned against the favor of Sandai-Sama, they wouldn't hesitate to kill the enemy!
At this mont, Sandai turned towards Suijin and said, "I guess I am grateful towards you for not killing any of my Shinobi, as a sign of my thanks I will give you a chance to surrender yourself peacefully, you will not be killed, that I can assure you!"
Suijin shook his head, "Thanks but no thanks, I am fine as I am!"
With a sigh, Hiruzen's gaze hardened as he said, "In that case, this old man will finally have to move his old bones to bring you down for disrupting the hard-won peace that so many of my Shinobi died to bring!"
"But the question is, can you?" – Suijin asked.
"You will know soon enough!" – Sandai said.
"I guess, I will!" – with that said, Suijin nodded, and printed the hand seals, "Be careful Sandai Hokage-dono!"
"Humph!" – Sandai coldly snorted, while holding the Adamantine staff at the back.
Suijin completed the hand seals as an icy cold Chakra swept the entire battlefield,
"Ice Release: The All Killing Rain!"
The Icy cold Chakra violently exploded with Suijin at the center, all the raindrops falling from the sky montarily halted in their path and turned into countless sharp Senbons!
