“Kill her Yagura!” Suijin ordered the controlled Yagura.
With Hirakarei raised high, Yagura poured Sanbi’s chakra in Hirakarei, and when it was ready, he flickered forward and waved the sword.
Slash…
Everyone looked with horror as Yagura waved Hirakarei, and subconsciously closed their eyes. Nobody wanted to see the scene of Terumi i being beheaded by the Mizukage himself.
Sanbi’s Chakra in the Hirakarei increased the sharpness of the sword, the dense and pure chakra further extended outward making the reach of the sword much farther than the base reach. And with this extended Sword, Yagura lopped off the head along with the upper torso of his target.
Puff…
The sound of blood spurting was heard.
Plop… Plop…
The upper and lower parts of the body fell to the ground lifelessly.
…
POV Terumi i
Slash…
‘That’s it… this is how I die? I couldn’t accomplish anything…’ i thought sadly as she heard the sound of a Sword slash and wind brushing past her cheeks.
Puff…
But the expected pain did not co, and all she could think was, ‘Mizukage sama is so skilled with the way of the sword that he finished off without even making realize it?’
Plop…
i collapsed to the ground but frowned because she could still feel her body working perfectly except for the fact that her chakra was sealed, but still, her hands and legs were functioning properly, “Sothing’s wrong… Why do I feel that I am still not dead?”
Confused, i opened her eyes only to see Suijin’s body lying on the ground.
“Huh?” i muttered in confusion… then looked at the Mizukage who had just sliced off Suijin’s body, and thought, ‘Did Mizukage sama regain himself?’
…
POV Change
“Hey… what do you think you are doing Yagura, are you blind? I am not the girl you were supposed to kill!” Suijin, whose body was currently divided into two parts shouted toward Yagura in anger.
Yagura looked at Suijin coldly and was annoyed at the fact that despite his body having been cut into two pieces, he wasn’t dead yet.
“As I thought, you also use the abilities of the Hozuki Clan, don’t you? I was skeptical when I pierced your heart with my club and you still survived, but I am certain now. You are able to liquify your body, which ans normal weapons are pretty much useless to you, huh?” Yagura said while trying to analyze how to kill Suijin.
i looked at Suijin with an incredulous expression, ‘Even the abilities of the Hozuki Clan? This guy…’
Suijin asked with a frown, “Hey hello? I asked you a question! You are supposed to be my puppet, how co you are able to defy ?”
Yagura snorted, “That’s none of your concern!”
Suijin said, “Actually it is. This is my Jutsu, and I know how it works, how are you able to defy , when you shouldn’t even be able to maintain a thinking process? Even Sanbi shouldn’t be able to help you in this!”
“Alright, since you are going to die anyway, then I don’t mind sharing this information with you it’s not going to change anything anyway. People learn from experience and the experience I have gained in the past year has made attain complete control over my subconscious plane, and, I have also taken additional precautions; precautions that would protect against people like you. Therefore, such types of ntal attacks won’t work on .” Yagura said coldly and prepared to kill Suijin.
After a while of silence, Suijin said, “Is that so? I think I understand now, I might have underestimated you because you were once controlled by the Akatsuki, I think I will be more careful from here on.” After a pause, Suijin chuckled, “But you are making the sa mistake that I did. What makes you think that you can kill when all you have managed to do up to now has been useless?”
As soon as Suijin finished speaking, the water from the surroundings gathered and took the form of Suijin, completely unhard, as if Mizukage’s attack on him did not do any damage.
‘Heh… mastering Hydrification Jutsu in the short ti of only a week was really tough, but I was able to do so because of my extre mastery over Water Chakra Nature, in fact, I even managed to combine it with my Ice Release.’ Thought Suijin as he prepared to fight the Mizukage with all his strength.
His objective may have just been to put up a show that would make everyone here believe that Yagura is the only suitable candidate to remain as the Mizukage, but Suijin also wants to see Yagura’s full strength, and fight against that full strength with everything he has for the greater body and soul fusion of the Suijin Clone, and to test just how much he has grown.
Slash… Slash…
Yagura who was standing in front of i waved Hirakarei to cut off the ice cuffs on her hands and legs, and said to her, “Now your chakra should no longer be sealed.”
i covered her body in her chakra as a verification, and nodded, “Yes Mizukage sama, I am able to use my Chakra.”
Yagura nodded, and said, “Good… now, I want you to lead the others with you to so distance away. I have a feeling that the fight from here on out will be quite devastating, so you might want to take so cover for protection.”
i imdiately said, “But Mizukage sama, I want to help. Suijin also uses Hozuki Clan’s Hydrification Jutsu… so against this Jutsu, my Lightning Release, Lava Release, and Boil Release should work to our advantage.”
Yagura shook his head, “Maybe… but the battle from here on out will most definitely reach the standards you are not yet ready for, so, just this once stand back and let , your Kage protect you. Let be the Mizukage who will protect his shinobi.”
i bit her lower lip in frustration, she wanted to retort, but she knows that as Mizukage sama said, her strength is indeed not enough to be part of the battle from here on out, but should she just watch from the side and do nothing?
Yagura seed to have noticed i’s worry and said while patting her head, “Do not worry, as the Mizukage I give you my word that nothing will happen to . I have yet to redeem myself, therefore, I am not allowed to die until I pay for my sins.”
i shook her head, and said bitterly, “It wasn’t your fault Mizukage sama, it’s the Akatsuki… and the Amatsukami.”
Yagura passed Hirakarei to i, then turned around facing Suijin, and said to i, “Maybe that’s true… but ultimately, it was my own weakness that led the village into what it has beco now. I know I can not undo what I have led the village into, but I must do everything in my power to not let the goals of people such as him co to fruition. So, trust this once, I give you my word that I shall not fall here.”
i deeply into the eyes of Yagura, and his determination, then after a bit of silence, she nodded, “Alright. I will do as you ordered, after all, a shinobi must follow the orders of their superiors.”
Then without waiting any longer, she used Water Clone Jutsu to carry away the injured and unconscious shinobi, at the sa ti, the original her picked up the two parts of Hirakarei and went away from the battlefield with Harusa, Chukichi, and Ao.
Suijin didn’t stop them, the objective is not to kill them, so obviously, he had no intention of stopping either of them from leaving here.
With them gone, Suijin cracked his knuckles, and said, “Now then, show what you can do Yagura, else this will all be for naught.”
Yagura nodded, he then directly transford into the Version-1 state of his Bijuu mode and rushed towards Suijin.
Suijin smirked, “Heh, directly starting with the Version-1 Bijuu Mode, are we? I have just the thing I want to use for situations like these.”
After speaking so, Suijin printed hand seals, and shouted, ‘Ice Release Secret Technique: Divine Raint’
With Suijin’s words, a large amount of water appeared out of the ground like a geyser, it engulfed Suijin in a high-pressured spherical wave and then started to freeze at an extrely high speed, an instant later, the frozen sphere of ice broke apart into countless ice particles and Suijin who was now covered with an armor made out of ice ca into the sight of everyone.
As soon as Suijin covered in armor made out of ice ca into the sight of everyone, he extended his hand outward to et the incoming punch of Version 1 Bijuu mode of Yagura.
Boom…
A loud noise echoed in the surroundings, the ground beneath the two cracked, and high-pressure winds were generated by the resulting shock waves of the collision of two fists.
‘Coral Palm Jutsu!’ With his fist colliding with Suijin’s fighting for dominance, Yagura used his coral palm Jutsu in an attempt to bind Suijin and restrict his movents with a network of coral.
‘Freezing Touch!’ Suijin was not about to be outdone by Yagura and used his ‘Freezing Touch’, a Jutsu capable of instantly freezing anything at the slightest of touch.
Chakra was poured into the two and the two Jutsu collided, Coral Palm would continue to spread on Suijin, but the Freezing touch would instantly freeze it and break it into countless Particles of Ice.
And a Taijutsu battle between Yagura and Suijin started.
Boom… Boom… Boom Boom Boom Boom Boom…
The power and the speed of the two were so strong that it was difficult for anyone to keep up with them, each of their moves resulted in a shock wave, trees were broken or frozen, and cracks kept forming on the ground, wherever Suijin passed from; Ice covered the area, and wherever, Yagura passed from he destroyed everything in sight.
But no matter how much destruction was caused, then did not stop, and did not have any reason to stop.
…
About half a kiloter away from the battlefield where Suijin and Yagura were fighting.
The evacuated Kirigakure Shinobi under the lead of i finally arrived here.
While panting heavily, one of the Kirigakure shinobi asked, “Will we be safe here?”
“Maybe.” Said i absentmindedly as she looked at Suijin and Mizukage fighting in the distance. The current position of i and the others are at a higher altitude, therefore, they are able to clearly see the state of the battle between the two, even if they are unable to keep up with the speed of the two.
The ‘Shroud of Suijin’ used by Suijin surprised them, as they have never seen anything like that, perhaps Raikage’s Lightning Chakra Mode falls closer to this shroud of Ice, but seeing such a Jutsu was new for them.
Heki observed the battle between the two, then asked i, “i sama, do you think Mizukage sama will win?”
“I don’t know.” Even if she did not want to admit it, the types of Jutsu and powers Suijin has surprised her, and she is really not sure whether Mizukage can win, ‘Mizukage sama seed confident, perhaps he can win, perhaps he has sothing up his sleeve.’
As the battle continued on, everyone started to take note of the abilities of Suijin and tried thinking up the counterasures they might be able to use, and any sign of weakness they can find, obviously, they were discussing with each other and trying to find any situation if they can help Mizukage sama defeat the enemy.
Only Ao was a silent one, as he did not participate in any discussion, he may have been looking at the battle, but his mind was sowhere else.
