The water surged rapidly and collided with the surrounding huge buildings.

A figure stood firmly on the surging water, forming seals with his hands, and slender water spurted out from his mouth. Like an aurora, it swept across the entire area, and buildings collapsed one after another, making a rumbling sound.

Yagura's arm began to bleed, where he was accidentally scratched by the very thin stream of water that shot towards him.

However, Yagura didn't pay too much attention. Under the influence of the three-tailed chakra, the wound on his arm healed quickly and the blood was evaporated.

The three generations of Mizukage behind him were chasing after him, and even the tailed beast's body was difficult to defend against the water-flow blade that could cut through gold and jade. If he was hit by that water-flow blade, he would be declared dead.

die.

After all, he is still one of the five shadows, the Mizukage.

Although he is old and physically weak, his strength has weakened, but his understanding and application of art have not become slower with age, but have become more sophisticated than before.

"After all, he is one of the Five Shadows."

Yagura sighed softly.

Countless ninjas have been unable to transcend the pinnacle of existence in the past.

Don't underestimate it just because you are old and frail.

He had tried to increase the strength of the Third Mizukage as much as possible, but in the end he still underestimated the enemy too much.

Fortunately, he had secretly mastered the power of the three tails before, otherwise, this battle would most likely end in failure.

But how to fight the Third Mizukage next is also a thorny problem.

The Third Mizukage's Water Release Ninjutsu is extremely lethal, and his knowledge of Water Release is far superior to his own. His own Water Release Ninjutsu is likely to be used by the other party to target him.

If the Three-Tails were completely liberated, they would be easily targeted by the Third Mizukage's sealing technique due to their large size and lack of flexibility.

Yagura would not believe that the third Mizukage did not have the ability to seal the three tails.

The tailed beast is an important weapon in the village. Every 'shadow' in the village will learn more or less the sealing technique used against the tailed beast.

For ordinary ninjas, the huge body of a tailed beast can form a powerful suppressive force, but when facing a ninja of the level of the 'Five Shadows', it is completely unfeasible just because of its huge size.

Maybe he will become a living target in their hands.

Should we use tailed beast jade? Yagura thought about this possibility.

As a perfect Jinchuuriki, you don't need to transform into a tailed beast to be able to use the tailed beast's special move - Tailed Beast Jade.

It's just that the scale of the technique is far less powerful than the tailed beast form.

Thinking of this, a sharp light flashed in Yagura's eyes, and he began to adjust the tailed beast chakra in his body.

The tailed beast coat on his body became increasingly bright red, as if it was about to solidify.

Seeing Yagura's tailed beast transformation progressing further, the Third Mizukage who was chasing after him also had a look on his face, realizing that Yagura would make a big move next.

"Water Release·Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"

The water dragon rose from the ground, leaped out from Yagura's side, and rushed towards the Third Mizukage.

This was a bait, and the Third Mizukage knew this, so he did not dodge, and sprayed a torrent of water from his mouth, cutting the water dragon in half from head to tail.

There were wet traces of water underfoot, swaying in the air.

The release of the water flash was completed in an instant, and the third water shadow rushed to Yagura in the blink of an eye. The chakra in his arms surged, and the water flow rippled on the surface of the arms.

"Water Release: Dragon Wrist!"

The dragon's head formed by the converging water flow appeared on the fist, and it fell mercilessly on Yagura's chest, hitting him head-on.

A terrifying explosion sounded, followed by invisible ripples in the atmosphere, and cracks visible to the naked eye appeared on the road and the buildings on both sides.

Yagura's body flew out like a cannonball. At the moment it flew out, Yagura also completed the work of condensing the tailed beast jade.

A sphere with a black core and a purple halo on the outer layer, coming from tearing apart the air.

The third Mizukage's eyes widened, Tailed Beast Jade!?

Although the size is much smaller than the tailed beast jade used by tailed beasts, the color, as well as the heart-stopping sense of oppression, there is no doubt that this is a genuine tailed beast jade.

Without time to think, facing the sudden danger, the Third Mizukage stepped back without hesitation and formed seals with his hands at the same time.

Flood spread on the streets, rushing forward overwhelmingly, swallowing up the tailed beast Jade Whale.

Stimulated by the huge force, the tailed beast jade in the water began to shine, and was on the verge of exploding.

Naturally, the Third Mizukage would not let the tailed beast jade explode. He pressed his hands on the water and input chakra into the water flow.

The light of the tailed beast jade became stronger and stronger, and when it reached a critical point, a blazing white light burst out from the water, but the force of the explosion did not break out of the water, but only caused a painless shock.

The power of the explosion was restrained in the water by the Third Mizukage's magic.

The Third Mizukage coughed, turned pale, and smiled slightly.

I didn't expect that even an attack of this magnitude would be extremely difficult to seal. I'm really getting older.

When he was in his prime, attacks of this level could be easily sealed with water escape and would not be taken seriously at all.

A strong wind came from behind, and Yagura, who was wearing a tailed beast's coat, gripped a long stick weapon with a curved hook and swung it towards the back of the Third Mizukage.

The third Mizukage gathered water on his arms and turned around to fight back.

The chakras of the two collided with each other, and their bodies shook each other and jumped backwards.

"Water Release·Ji Zhen Big Shock Wave!"

Yagura opened his mouth, and water rushed out, gathering in mid-air a huge turtle covered with thorns and three tails.

The Third Mizukage looked at the water turtle falling from the sky and saw at a glance that it was a powerful water escape created based on the three-tailed body shape.

The impact force is even greater than the water dragon bullet technique.

Without any hesitation, the water dragon slash was released again, splitting the water turtle from the middle.

The blade of water that cuts iron like mud is the proud trick of the third Mizukage.

In addition to illusion attacks, physical attacks and regular ninjutsu attacks will be torn apart by the water blade.

Compared to Konoha's Sandaime Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, a ninjutsu doctor who can skillfully use five escape techniques, only knows water escape.

In terms of coping with the environment, he is far less versatile than the Third Hokage of Konoha, but because he has been specializing in Water Release Ninjutsu for decades, his attainments in Water Release, since the death of the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama,

He was confident that among the ninjas in the world, no one could surpass him in water escape.

Instead of wasting energy on other arts, he might as well specialize in one type of water escape, which would be enough for him to deal with many enemies.

The water is invisible, able to accommodate all things, and can also be turned into an indestructible sharp blade in his hand!

Yagura had already experienced the power of the water escape of the Third Mizukage personally through previous battles.

No matter what kind of water escape he used, he could not block the Third Mizukage's Water Dragon Slash, which was a blade of water that could cut through all things.

Not to mention the tailed beast's hard body.

In addition to being bulky, this is also an important reason why Yagura is unwilling to use the complete tailed beast transformation.

To deal with large creatures, the Third Mizukage's Water Dragon Slash has room to be stronger.

Therefore, Yagura did not hesitate to release the tailed beast jade again and attack the third Mizukage.

"Such tricks are useless to me!"

The Third Mizukage cast a spell to release the water flow, covering the tailed beast jade again. Even if the tailed beast jade exploded, it could not break through the shackles of the water layer.

It was some kind of powerful water escape sealing technique that could suppress everything.

The characteristic of water containing all things is also displayed.

However, this is exactly what Yagura wants.

Sure enough, the Third Mizukage, who had sealed the Tailed Beast Tama again, was panting even more rapidly than before.

Moreover, the chakra in the body is also consumed rapidly.

In the sight of the Third Mizukage, Yagura began to condense the third small tailed beast jade.

Even a small tailed beast jade explodes with such force that the flesh and blood of a ninja cannot withstand it.

In order to avoid being involved in the explosion of the Tailed Beast Jade, the Third Mizukage could only use the sealing technique again which seemed to consume quite a lot of energy and chakra.

The Third Mizukage also seemed to have anticipated Yagura's plan and cursed secretly.

Yagura is a perfect Jinchuuriki, and the tailed beasts in his body continuously condense and transmit chakra for him. No matter how conceited he is, the Third Mizukage will not be arrogant enough to compete with the tailed beasts in chakra consumption.

Among the Five Kages, only ninjas with special characteristics like the Raikage possess the same amount of terrifying chakra as the tailed beasts.

In his prime, he might be able to fight for a long time, but when his energy and chakra have declined, in a chakra competition with a tailed beast, he, the Mizukage, will definitely fall first in the end.

Despicable? This is just a tactical application.

Make the most of your strengths and avoid your weaknesses. Yagura is well versed in the art of fighting.

It would be too much of a disadvantage to compete with the Third Mizukage in Water Release Ninjutsu. His physical skills are only half as good. He also has to be wary of the Third Mizukage's Water Dragon Slash attack. Neither Ninjutsu nor Taijutsu competitions are suitable.

As for genjutsu... although Yagura and the Third Mizukage know how to break genjutsu, they are both ninjas who are not very good at genjutsu.

Therefore, competing for chakra consumption is what Yagura considers to be a chance for victory.
