A whooshing sound came from within the poisonous mist.
Hanzo’s scythe viciously struck the gold dust that blocked Rasa’s path.
Rasa looked at Hanzo, who wore a respirator, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Let’s see if your poisonous mist can corrode my gold dust."
Hanzo’s breathing remained steady, but a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
As expected of a genius from Sunagakure.
Having missed one attack, Hanzo pulled back from Rasa.
The poisonous mist still flowed across the battlefield. The desert wind accelerated the flow of the poisonous mist.
Because of Hanzo’s presence, the poisonous mist in this area could never dissipate. He himself was the largest source of poison.
As long as he was here, he would continuously emit poisonous mist. It was impossible to make the poisonous mist completely dissipate from this battlefield.
Hanzo and Rasa stood in confrontation within the poisonous mist.
The air was taut, as if sparks would fly at any second.
Out of nowhere, the ground beneath Rasa’s feet suddenly exploded. Yellow sand shot into the sky like a fountain. A massive shadow emerged from the poisonous mist mixed with yellow sand.
That was a summoning beast.
The summoning beast’s body was bloated, covered in tough, thick, dark brown hide. It’s short, powerful limbs supported its massive frame. It’s thick tail slapped the ground, kicking up swirls of yellow sand.
Its wide-open maw was filled with tusks the size of long swords, and a thick, dark purple venom brewed deep in its throat.
This was Hanzo’s summoning beast—Ibuse.
Currently, information about Hanzo was already fully public in the Ninja World. Almost everyone knew that Hanzo possessed such a powerful summoning beast.
Ibuse let out a deafening roar. Its massive body suddenly tilted forward, and the long-brewed dark purple torrent of venom erupted like a volcanic eruption, spewing out towards Rasa.
The dark purple venom was far more potent than the poisonous mist. Where the venom passed, the air let out a sizzling wail.
Rasa’s figure was extremely tiny compared to the venom, but there was no trace of panic on his face.
Magnet Release: Gold Dust Imperial Funeral!
Looking at the venom rushing towards him, Rasa’s pupils constricted, and he let out a sharp cry.
A huge golden torrent, like a river turning upside down, surged up in front of Rasa, meeting the purple venom pouring down from Ibuse.
The deafening collision made the entire battlefield tremble.
The Amegakure and Sunagakure ninjas entangled in battle simultaneously looked towards the deepest part of the poisonous mist in the center of the battlefield. Unfortunately, their vision was completely obscured. No one could see what was happening inside.
The golden dust waves and dark purple venom crashed together in mid-air. A harsh corrosive sound entered Hanzo and Rasa’s ears.
The gold dust was rapidly dissolved by the dark purple venom, its golden glow quickly turning black, some even turning into wisps of black smoke and dissipating into the air. However, the torrent of gold dust was endless and relentless, gradually devouring the venom.
Both Rasa and Hanzo’s expressions changed.
Rasa thought, ’Hanzo is as powerful as the rumors say.’
Hanzo likewise dared not underestimate the young ninja before him. He had to admit that there was never a shortage of geniuses in the Great Hidden Villages. However, he believed that his disciple, Haruki, would be a stronger ninja than anyone in the future.
Rasa formed hand signs again. The surging golden gold dust fiercely slammed into Ibuse’s massive body.
The heavy impact made Ibuse let out a pained groan. Its massive body was forcibly pushed back several meters, its thick limbs plowing deep furrows in the sand.
The gold dust, like a parasite, instantly wrapped around its limbs, frantically crushing them.
Ibuse groaned under the immense pressure, unable to bear the weight. It twisted and struggled frantically, its thick tail sweeping horizontally, sending large amounts of gold dust flying. But in an instant, more gold dust continuously surged up.
Hanzo did not panic at all. Instead, he took advantage of Rasa’s full effort to combat Ibuse to attack him again.
His figure appeared behind Rasa at some unknown time. Around his body, the originally diffused purple poisonous mist suddenly condensed, forming dense poisonous needles.
These poisonous needles were hidden within the mist, silent and fast as lightning, shooting from tricky angles towards Rasa’s back, throat, joints, and other vital points.
Rasa’s pupils suddenly constricted. Most of his mental focus and Chakra were used to suppress Ibuse.
Gold dust condensed into a wall behind him. The poisonous needles pierced into the wall, and the gold dust was corroded, emitting wisps of black smoke.
Rasa dared not underestimate Hanzo in the slightest, even if he had an antidote.
From time to time, several screams came from within the pervasive purple poisonous mist.
Rasa’s expression was solemn. The second wave of poisonous needles easily penetrated his gold dust.
Walls of gold dust rose from the ground, once again intercepting the poisonous needles that could corrode the air.
Just then, in the air behind Rasa, dark purple venom erupted from Ibuse’s mouth, tearing through the gold dust barrier behind Rasa. The viscous venom washed away the gold dust, crashing down towards Rasa’s head.
Rasa’s expression changed slightly. He sharply retreated backward. Gold dust swirled like a tornado, reforming a huge gold dust barrier around him.
The venom heavily struck the gold dust giant shield, emitting a dull thud.
Rasa gritted his teeth, his expression slightly changing. His hands, which were condensing the gold dust, trembled slightly.
The surface of the gold dust giant shield was corroding at an alarming speed, emitting thick black smoke.
More venom collided with the giant shield, splashing like raindrops, falling on the surrounding ground and on the Sunagakure ninjas who couldn’t fully dodge in time.
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle—
Countless bubbling black pits formed on the ground.
Screams of pain escaped from the lips of the Sunagakure ninjas.
The screams quickly stopped abruptly as the Sunagakure ninjas’ bodies were instantly melted by the venom.
Rasa’s face turned ashen.
Hanzo’s figure once again disappeared into the poisonous mist.
Rasa narrowed his eyes and slowly said, "You are very strong, but the difference in numbers between Sunagakure and Amegakure cannot be compensated for."
"You don’t know yet, do you? The ninja you sent to Rifting Gorge can no longer return."
Within the poisonous mist, Hanzo’s pupils constricted.
