Chapter 88 Hanzo's Helplessness, The Final Battle is Imminent
The moment Hanzo saw Fukuyo, his face darkened.
What followed was a chilling killing intent.
Only Hanzo, who had witnessed Fukuyo's abilities, knew just how shameless he truly was.
After learning that Fushiko was only 18 years old and had just graduated from school, Hanzo couldn't sleep all night.
He hated Fukuyo for not being born in Amegakure, but he also knew that as long as he was there, it would be extremely difficult for Amegakure to defeat Konoha.
The ability to fly alone, combined with that ninjutsu similar to a Tailed Beast Ball, could render all of Amegakure's efforts futile.
So after using the Rain Tiger Free Technique to detect that strange lurking trajectory that was almost identical to the previous one, Hanzo immediately locked onto Fukuyo.
He didn't alert anyone immediately, because that would only scare them away.
As for the possible gangs, Hanzo couldn't care less anymore.
Hanzo has almost no anti-air capabilities; his poison mist will naturally sink at high altitudes, and his scythe can only be used for melee combat.
Only water-based attacks can damage mid-range flying units, but they are powerless against high-altitude enemies.
In order to counter Fukuyo's flying summon, Hanzo specially gathered many subordinates with Wind Release and Water Release techniques to target Fukuyo.
Even if intelligence is obtained, it's better than having a strategic ninja who can fly, has high defense, and possesses large-scale destructive ninjutsu alive.
When enemies meet, there's little time for pleasantries; Hanzo immediately launches an attack while Fukuko is still within his attack range.
However, he clearly underestimated Fu Heiyao.
His progress far exceeded Hanzo's expectations.
Faced with a barrage of aerial ninjutsu attacks, Fukuko did not immediately maneuver to increase his altitude to evade them; instead, he began to dive.
Clad in dark red Susanoo armor, its wings flapped, tearing through the rain curtain. The air currents that tore through the rain carried countless slashes, falling like feathers.
Susanoo and Miko have excellent compatibility, and Susanoo's sword can unleash 120% of its power.
However, this does not mean that the slash can only be activated with Susanoo's sword.
Inspired by Wu, Fu Heiyao developed a feather-dropping tactic centered on a single element, which involved high-altitude flight to wear down the enemy, in order to adapt to the battlefield.
In the "vision" of the Amegakure ninjas, the heavy rain they were used to had changed.
Or rather, something as dense as rain has replaced the heavy rain in our perception.
The tiny slashes were as silent and dense as raindrops. The aerial attack unleashed by the elite forces of Amegakure, who had poured all their strength into the village, was shattered and broken the moment it approached Nue.
The few fish that managed to escape the net slapped against the encased Susanoo armor without causing even a ripple.
An invisible slash pierced through the escape techniques in the heavy rain, and the broken wind and water clumps mixed with the raindrops and fell back into the Rain Ninja camp, extinguishing Hanzo's last hope along with them.
"Hanzo, thank you for the hospitality." Fukuko laughed and left.
"I'm really looking forward to our next match!"
With a single dive, his countermeasures failed. Hanzo stared at Fukuyo's departing figure, saying nothing.
He ignored his subordinates' worries, simply closing his eyes and letting the torrential rain fall on him.
On the other hand, Jiraiya fared much worse. Even though only a small number of Rain Ninja were chasing him, he did not have the ability to fly.
He used Earth Release to escape quickly, but was sensed by the Rain Ninja, who used Earth Release to push him out, and then subjected him to a barrage of ninjutsu attacks.
Fortunately, Fukuyo drew away a large amount of firepower, otherwise Jiraiya would have really had to use Reverse Summoning.
Late at night, in a naturally formed rock cave, Fu Heiyao, who was sitting by a fire, noticed a colorful little toad slowly approaching him.
Then, Jiraiya, covered in wounds and exhausted, crawled out of the toad's mouth.
"I never imagined that flying ability would be so useful. Next time, I'm definitely going to run with you." Jiraiya said enviously, seeing Fukuyo completely unharmed.
Although Jiraiya already knew that Fukuko's flight ability was Hanzo's nemesis, Hanzo still put too much pressure on him.
He didn't dare to drag Fu Heiya down, but now it seems that Hanzo is indeed completely restrained by the ability to fly.
Most of the troops in Longyin Town were dragged along by Fu Heiyao, but they couldn't even break through Fu Heiyao's armor.
"Hard to say, the next time I meet Hanzo, he'll be the one who runs away." Fukuyo teased as he stepped forward and used a reversal technique to heal Jiraiya.
"Haha, you're right!"
Jiraiya stared at the rapidly regenerating flesh and blood on his body, a hint of amazement in his eyes.
Even though I already knew, I still can't help myself every time I see it.
After recovering from his injuries, Jiraiya organized intelligence while discussing the situation with Fushiko.
"What are your thoughts on our strategic deployment for Dragon Hidden Town?" Jiraiya asked, intending to test him.
"Simple." Fu Heiyao casually pointed to the towns surrounding Longyin. "Since Hanzo is personally in charge, we won't be able to take Longyin in a short time."
However, this doesn't mean we can't attack the towns surrounding Dragon's Den.
"Compared to Amegakure, which started off weak, our advantage lies in our ample logistics and manpower, and time is on our side."
"Konoha could gradually annex the surrounding towns first, putting Hanzo in a dilemma." Fu Heiya pondered for a moment and said, "If he supports the surrounding towns, we will attack Ryuin Town. If he allows the surrounding areas to fall, Ryuin will only become isolated and helpless in the long run, becoming a sitting duck."
"I didn't expect you to have such profound thoughts at such a young age." Jiraiya nodded, clearly satisfied with Fushiko's answer.
"You've already developed the mindset of a commander, Yao."
Fu Heiya disagreed, saying, "As soon as Konoha started mass-producing the antidote, Amegakure was destined for this day. The intelligence only accelerated the process."
Jiraiya couldn't help but laugh upon hearing this; that made sense.
The size difference between Amegakure and Konoha is too great, and Amegakure, like Konoha, is fighting on multiple fronts.
After losing the only weapon that could be considered a strategic deterrent—the salamander toxin—Amegakure's defeat was inevitable; it was only a matter of time.
Afterwards, Fukuyo used his rest time to bless and dismantle the two most useful shikigami, Tiger Burial and Enshika, which were also the main bodies of the new chimera beasts.
He wanted to perfect the envisioned chimera beast as much as possible before the final battle.
If Black Flash represents one percent inspiration, then Obsidian Fu's efforts before that represent ninety-nine percent perspiration.
The two complement each other and are indispensable.
A week after Jiraiya and Fushiko returned with the information.
The entire Hidden Leaf Village was like a war machine that had been activated, launching attacks on the towns surrounding the Hidden Dragon Village.
Faced with Konoha's overwhelming strength compared to Amegakure, Hanzo could only send troops to provide support and put out fires everywhere.
However, this resulted in more areas falling to the enemy.
With overwhelming intelligence, the town, which had just been weakened by the redeployment of troops, was quickly occupied by Konoha.
Within a month, the towns surrounding Longyin fell one after another, leaving only Luoyu Town, which represented Longyin's Achilles' heel.
Once this place is captured, the entire Dragon's Den will be cut off from its logistics, and its fall will only be a matter of time.
The battle for control of Rain Village became the focal point of the struggle between Konoha and Amegakure.
The result was obvious: Konoha had the advantage, and Rainfall Town fell under the bombardment of the flying unit, Obsidian Fukuko.
However, this does not mean victory is within reach; on the contrary, it is the prelude to a storm.
Because what awaits them next is Hanzo's final counterattack.
The Jonin in the command tent all looked serious, but their tension was mixed with undisguised excitement.
Strategic points that were previously impossible are now readily available.
After surveying the crowd, Orochimaru, the commander-in-chief, announced the order for the final battle.
"Hanzo will never allow Rainfall Town, the last gateway to the outside world for Dragon's Hidden Village, to fall."
Tomorrow will be the fiercest moment of Amegakure's counterattack, and Hanzo will definitely take action personally.
"But you don't need to worry about Hanzo. I will keep Hanzo out of the battlefield."
Orochimaru's tone suddenly rose, and he said, "Gentlemen, success or failure hinges on this! Completely assimilate Rainfall Town and surround and seize Dragon's Hidden Town!"
With the announcement of the order to fight the decisive battle, everyone became excited.
As for Hanzo, the most crucial figure in this battle, even the usually suspicious Shikajin was now confident.
They no longer worried whether Fukuyo was qualified to fight alongside the "Three Legendary Sannin".
Rather, I'm a little worried that Orochimaru and his group might hold Fushiko Yo back.
More than a month of hard work has made everyone realize the strategic value of Fu Heiyao.
He demonstrated the terrifying power of air superiority to the fullest extent.
The giant crater outside Luoyu Town that pierced the underground water veins dispelled the last trace of doubt in everyone's hearts.
