Seeing this, Hyuga had no choice but to evacuate.
He needs to send the message back as soon as possible, and then bring the main force to reinforce. As for attacking the front-line base of the Hidden Mist Village, that will definitely be arranged by someone else.
Tsunade cannot afford to fail, but the problem is that he cannot change Tsunade's will.
Of course, the main reason is that their ship is getting closer and closer, and the Hidden Mist Village is not to be trifled with. Moreover, sensory ninjas are not to be trifled with, and Bai Mu and his group are standing openly on this cliff.
With such an obvious target, how could it not be discovered?
That's impossible!
Meanwhile, as Hyuga Ren led his men to retreat and quickly returned to Konoha's front-line base, Kirigakure at sea had already spotted Shiramaki and his group on the cliff.
"Lord Mizukage, you are a ninja from Konoha!"
The sensory ninja on the ship immediately reported the situation.
"Attack! Kill whoever it is without mercy!" The Third Mizukage immediately gave the order, demanding that the enemy be killed without exception, and that the people of Konoha not be allowed to send the message back.
He came to the front lines not to engage in a standoff, but to launch a surprise attack and kill Bai Mu.
Target: Uchiha Hakumaki!
This was the instruction given by Madara Uchiha.
Although the Third Mizukage was quite strong, he was nothing compared to Madara Uchiha. Therefore, he had no idea that he had become a pitiful creature being controlled and thought he was fighting for the benefit of Kirigakure.
But why kill Bai Mu?
Naturally, it was because the other party had killed too many people from Kirigakure. The other party was an outstanding talent of the Uchiha clan, whose strength was too great and posed a great threat, so they had to be eliminated in advance.
Following the Third Mizukage's order, Kirigakure ninjas began appearing on the ship, many of them quickly forming hand seals.
On the sea, several water dragons leaped up and shot into the sky, then attacked Tsunade, Hakuba, and the others on the cliff.
There were at least a dozen water dragons, their roar was enormous and carried an invincible aura.
However, Esdeath simply raised her hand, and the dozen or so menacing water dragons were instantly frozen into ice dragons.
"what?"
On the three large ships, the Hidden Mist ninjas immediately paled.
The opposing team has an Ice Release ninja? And isn't this level of Ice Release ninjutsu a bit over the top?
"Who could it be?" The Third Mizukage's face was gloomy. He really couldn't think of anyone. There were ninja clans in Kirigakure with bloodlines of Ice Release, and Kirigakure also had Ice Release ninjutsu. But when it came to ninjutsu of this level, only the power of bloodline limit could compare.
Or rather, none of them are enough to fight against it. Where did Konoha get an Ice Release ninja of this caliber?
"Lord Mizukage, something's not right. This level of Ice Release ninjutsu couldn't possibly be from a Konoha ninja, could it? Isn't there something wrong with this?"
One of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, Juzo Biwa, stepped forward and spoke.
The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist Village are not just Juzo Biwa here, but also Raiga Kurosuki. As for Suigetsu Hozuki, he is in the village and did not come.
Ever since Might Guy killed four of the seven members of the group, the remaining three—Juzo Biwa, Raiga Kurosuki, and Fuguki Suigetsu—have long lost their former arrogance and pride.
Among them, Suigetsu Hobutsuki became a bully who preyed on the weak and feared the strong. Those weaker than him were wantonly humiliated, while those stronger than him naturally avoided his sharp edge.
Therefore, for this operation, he chose to stay in the rear, saying that he could play a greater role by staying in the village.
As for its function?
Anyway, it exists; if you ask, just ignore it.
"It's Princess Tsunade! Princess Tsunade of Konoha is here!" At this moment, a member of the Hidden Mist Anbu spotted Tsunade and immediately shouted.
"Tsunade?"
The Third Mizukage was startled upon hearing this.
If it's Tsunade, then she must be from Konoha, but the question is, who in Konoha possesses this level of Ice Release ninjutsu? And is this a bloodline limit?
"If it's Tsunade, just kill her. I'll kill her, and no one can take the credit from me." Raiga Kurosuki was very confident, believing he could take down Tsunade.
As for the matter of being brutally beaten by a Konoha genin?
That's fine. Might Guy is a madman, but Tsunade isn't. Besides, he's been away from Konoha for many years and I heard he's been wandering around. His strength is questionable.
Besides, the other party is a woman, how strong could she be?
He raised his twin swords and shouted, "Lightning Release: Lightning Fang!"
Lightning burst forth, covering a wide area of the cliff, but most of the lightning bolts rushed toward Tsunade at an astonishing speed.
"Ice flowers!"
Alice Lise whispered.
Frost surged from the sky, blocking all the incoming lightning.
Esdeath froze the water dragon, while Alice Lizard blocked the lightning, but Tsunade did nothing, prompting her to complain, "No, am I not supposed to do anything?"
What are you doing?
You guys do everything, so I can't do anything, right?
Chapter 23 The inherently evil Uchiha is bewitching people again!
"Lady Tsunade, don't rush, take your time," Bai Mu said to Tsunade, indicating that she could relax and not be so impatient.
Tsunade's face darkened upon hearing this, a look of displeasure washing over her. She stared intently at Bai Mu and said in a deep voice, "How can I not be anxious when I see this? And what about these two women beside you..."
She paused for a moment, then continued, "That's because there's something really wrong with them."
“We are young, we are girls.” Alice Lise corrected him while maintaining the defensive shield of ice flowers with one hand.
I'm seventeen, a teenage girl, not a woman.
“I don’t care, but I’m twenty-one.” Esdeath shrugged and said casually.
Tsunade:"……"
What are you talking about?
I'm still in my prime.
Tsunade is currently only in her late thirties, not yet forty, and her mature yet youthful aura gives her a unique charm that is captivating and alluring!
"I'm not going to talk about that with you guys. As for the enemy on the other side, someone has to be someone I deal with." Tsunade didn't want to waste any more words; her point was simply that she was going to take the lead.
"OK, no problem."
Bai Mu readily agreed.
He wouldn't deliberately stop Tsunade from doing anything, especially since it's about attacking the enemy. Would I stop you from killing the enemy? Of course not.
"you……"
Tsunade hesitated.
You agreed so readily, but something seems off.
Bai Mu remained all smiles, his tone even more calm.
"Lady Tsunade, I know you have a prejudice against me, but I am a good person, and not just for the Uchiha, but also for Konoha. You have to believe me!"
The inherently evil Uchiha clan is bewitching people again.
"Remember, I'm repaying a favor, a life-saving grace. After this, we'll go our separate ways," Tsunade said coldly, her attitude resolute.
Bai Mu didn't care about Tsunade's attitude. In fact, he thought it was normal. It's more interesting to take things slowly. Besides, if he could really do it, he shouldn't have agreed to it in the first place.
It's impossible for Tsunade to not care about the village.
She's now very wary of Bai Mu, which means she needs to keep a close eye on him to feel at ease. As for repaying favors, well, favors are a thing...
The more you pay back, the more you accumulate; eventually, you'll be unable to pay it all back.
While Haku and Tsunade were having a leisurely conversation, the Kirigakure forces, still at sea, continued their attack under the command of the Third Mizukage.
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
A large amount of seawater surged from the sea surface, rose into the air, and quickly condensed into a water dragon.
In the blink of an eye, a dozen or twenty water dragons once again attacked Tsunade and her group on the cliff.
Fighting on the open sea is entirely advantageous for the Hidden Mist ninjas, as the seawater is a natural aid that can help ninjas skilled in water-style techniques to perform their ninjutsu.
Seeing this, Tsunade was immediately troubled and had to say, "I said, it's obviously not going to work to keep defending like this. Let them come up here and fight on land."
The sea provides too much of a boost to the ninjas of Kirigakure; we can't continue to be so passive.
"fine."
Upon hearing this, Bai Mu chuckled softly, then said to Esdeath, "Esdeath, make your move!"
"Shouldn't it be me?"
Before Esdeath could speak, Alice Lise became dissatisfied.
How could it be her?
Can't it be mine?
Logically, it should be me.
"It's the same for everyone." Bai Mu felt a headache coming on at this.
"I'll do it!" Alice Lise didn't want to give Esdeath a chance. While maintaining the ice flower defensive shield to block the so-called water dragon bullet impact, she raised her other hand.
She whispered, "A great ice calamity!"
In an instant, the sea was covered by ice, starting from where she stood, from the cliff down to the sea, all the way to the three large ships hidden in the mist.
As the ice spread, the people in the Hidden Mist realized something was wrong and began to leave the large ship.
The Third Mizukage's gaze was grim, his face extremely ugly, and he said coldly, "When did Konoha acquire an ice shield ninja of this caliber? This power is definitely extraordinary. Who is it?"
Even within the Hidden Mist Village, the Ice Release Bloodstained Ninjas are not enough to be said to possess such power, so who is the enemy?
