Tsunade's expression instantly froze. Being called "Auntie" by a little girl, she could endure that... but being called "Old Hag" by someone who looked to be in their twenties?! Her lips twitched continuously, barely suppressing the anger in her heart. She was afraid she wouldn't be able to hold back the indignation swelling within her and would send this guy flying.
Liu Chen said expressionlessly, "And that warning I gave you just now... a normal person, upon receiving such a warning, should retreat a good distance, shouldn't they?!" "As one of Konoha's Sannin, do you not understand such a rule, Auntie Tsunade?" If this person hadn't harbored no ill will, Liu Chen would have rewarded her with a Raigou (Thunderclap). For an old hag in her forties or fifties... he had no interest whatsoever. Others might not know Tsunade's true age; many would be deceived by her appearance. But Liu Chen knew very well... this woman was at least half a lifetime older than himself.
He glanced at Tsunade Senju. Liu Chen inwardly understood that as long as he didn't flaunt his power, he would seem like a normal person, since even Tsunade, one of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha, thought he was a normal human. Of course, as for Tsunade ignoring the previous warning and intruding into this place, Liu Chen naturally had no good feelings towards her. With Tsunade's insight and comprehension as one of Konoha's Sannin... if she had overheard his words while he was teaching Hinata earlier, she would have instantly learned the Marine Six Powers. After all, the Marine Six Powers, to be honest... were indeed very simple to learn. The real difficulty lay in practicing them to a point of complete mastery.
However, Liu Chen's two consecutive calls of "Old Hag" had already pushed Tsunade into a state of impending rage. Because if you tell a girl she's old, it's like telling a guy his dick is small... This phrase has a 100% chance of making someone snap. Looking at this detestable man, Tsunade gritted her teeth and said, "I don't care if you're from Konoha or not, and I don't care if you're this Hyuga girl's teacher! If I don't beat you up today, I won't feel right all year!" Seeing the faint aura she was building up, Liu Chen's face showed a helpless expression. Isn't this woman an old hag?! She's already in her forties or fifties, why is she still pretending to be a young girl...? Does calling her an old hag make her snap?! However, on second thought, this was precisely what he wanted. Hinata learning the Six Powers by herself would ultimately take too long. He had originally wanted to demonstrate it to her, and now a punching bag had conveniently arrived. This was not just a coincidence. Plus, Tsunade was the one who wanted to start the fight. If he beat up this Konoha Sannin... it should be fine, right?! Would there be any issue with hitting a woman? He had killed countless women before.
"Hinata, watch carefully. I'll demonstrate for you, and this is the only time." Liu Chen's voice suddenly rang out. Hinata, who had been watching the two confront each other and feeling a bit overwhelmed, instantly reacted and nodded repeatedly: "Mm-hmm!"
Demonstration?! What does that mean? Tsunade suddenly felt a vague sense of foreboding. However, the next second, an alarm suddenly blared in her mind. Years of combat experience told her that great danger was about to strike. Tsunade quickly retreated a distance. Then she saw, utterly horrified... a figure instantly appeared before her.
"What?! How is that possible... This guy, so fast!!" A violent gust of wind assaulted her face. The swirling air currents surged like a tornado. The atmospheric pressure swept everywhere. Layers of air waves made her clothes flap loudly.
"Monstrous Strength: Guard!" Tsunade used her Monstrous Strength without hesitation. There was no trace of underestimation in her eyes, because from Liu Chen's incredibly terrifying speed, she could tell that this man's strength was not just ordinarily powerful. Less than a second later, a fist landed on her arm. The terrifying force caused Tsunade's face to dramatically change.
"How is that possible?! This guy's strength... is actually... superior to mine?!" The earth beneath Tsunade's feet instantly cracked inch by inch. The entire ground trembled violently. She bit her teeth, desperately resisting this punch. The ground beneath her feet was forcibly dragged into two grooves, though each groove was at most two meters long. But this also confirmed that Tsunade was actually forced back! This was the result of the opponent's raw physical strength! This was simply unbelievable.
A hint of admiration flashed in Liu Chen's eyes. In the Naruto world, a world full of glass cannons, the existence of someone like Tsunade, a tank, was incredibly rare. Even if all the people in the entire ninja world were combined, there probably wouldn't be more than twenty such individuals. This alone showed how rare such beings were. To be honest, Tsunade was also a genius in cultivating Taijutsu. Even more of a genius than Hinata. But the regrettable thing was that this woman was already an "old hag." She had long passed the optimal period for training One Piece world's Taijutsu. However, he, Liu Chen, was someone who could contend with Kaido, the King of the Beasts. He had even surpassed Kaido in terms of brute strength.
Liu Chen spoke: "Hinata, the move I just used to instantly appear in front of this old hag is Six Powers: Soru. Next... is Shigan."
"What?! What Six Powers: Soru? What Shigan?" Tsunade looked bewildered, unsure what Liu Chen's words meant. Then, the next second, she saw Liu Chen's free left hand. He suddenly slowly extended an index finger. A sense of crisis instantly struck!! Not good! Danger! Tsunade gritted her teeth and pushed hard, quickly breaking free from Liu Chen, and repeatedly retreated backward. Although she didn't know what move the opponent was going to use, a fatal sense of crisis arose in her heart. Don't dodge, and you'll die! Just as she had retreated five meters, Liu Chen's index finger instantly jabbed out. A spiraling air current coiled around his fingertip, shooting towards Tsunade like a bullet!
"Shigan isn't just for close combat; the spiraling air current it creates can also be used for long-range attacks," Liu Chen continued to explain to Hinata.
