Chapter 33 - Chapter 33: The Heirs of Shadow (End)

"Well done, Hōzuki Gengetsu!"

Second Raikage shouted excitedly.

"We succeeded! We won!"

Shamon's face was also incredibly excited.

Only Mu, still in the sky, maintained a solemn expression.

No!

This Chakra… it's Immortal Technique!

Mu, who had trained in natural energy, was extremely sensitive to this Senjutsu Chakra!

"Boom!!"

With a loud bang, the shockwave from the explosion swept outwards like a gale, leaving smoke and dust everywhere, obscuring the sky.

As the aftermath of the explosion gradually subsided, the smoke also began to slowly clear, and people nervously watched the situation within the smoke.

Finally, when the smoke completely dissipated and the scene inside was revealed to everyone, everyone's expressions turned extremely grim!

Within the mist, Senju Hashirama still stood steadily, and at his feet lay Hōzuki Gengetsu's torn Steam Impending Danger.

Senju Hashirama's clothes were tattered, his once sturdy armor was gone, and there was a huge hole in his abdomen, from which blood gushed like a spring, staining the ground beneath him, extremely gory!

However, even more shocking was that this bloody hole in his abdomen was rapidly healing at an astonishing speed!

"What the hell!!!!"

"Is this guy really human!?"

Second Raikage completely lost it, clenching his fists and roaring.

Second Raikage saw that Senju Hashirama was almost cut in half, yet, in such a situation, Senju Hashirama was still not dead!?

If you say you didn't cheat, I wouldn't believe it!

"This!!!"

Hōzuki Gengetsu also widened his eyes, his lips trembling.

This can't be true. The damage I painstakingly inflicted, he recovered in just a few seconds?

What the hell!?

If you said Hashirama activated his blood lock, I'd believe it.

Damn it, this Senju Hashirama isn't even acting anymore!

If you're so powerful, why did you defend against us just now? You should have just taken it head-on.

"Damn it… he's still not dead after all that!"

Shamon's face was extremely grim, calling it outrageous.

This is a wheelchair Ninja.

Senju Hashirama, tell me honestly, did you laugh when you were operating yourself?

Mu, floating in mid-air, was also finding it hard to cope.

"It seems I still have to rely on my Dust Release…"

Among the few second-generation Kage present, only he had a chance to completely kill Senju Hashirama!

And only Dust Release could instantly kill Senju Hashirama.

Making Senju Hashirama instantly turn into atoms, giving him no time to recover!

In the recent battle,

Mu could clearly feel that Senju Hashirama's attention was mostly focused on him, which made it impossible for him to make a move.

It seemed like Senju Hashirama was fighting the other three,

But in reality, Senju Hashirama was truly guarding against only Mu!

"It's just… Sage Mode is difficult to deal with…"

Mu looked down at Senju Hashirama, who had already entered Sage Mode, with a worried expression.

"Cough, cough!"

Senju Hashirama's body recovered in an extremely short time.

"I can't let this continue… that guy is very troublesome…"

Senju Hashirama's gaze was fixed on the sky.

Although he had been fighting the other three just now,

To be honest, their attacks couldn't really kill him.

The one who truly posed a threat to his life

Had always been Mu, hidden in the shadows!

He wasn't afraid of the lion and tiger-like characters such as Hōzuki Gengetsu, Shamon, and Second Raikage.

What he truly worried about was the venomous snake hidden in the dark!

Mu was that venomous snake.

Once bitten,

He would at least be severely injured, or at worst, instantly evaporate!

That Dust Release, a graze would cause injury, a direct hit would mean instant death.

This was also why he hadn't used the Wood Golem.

The Wood Golem was too big of a target.

For Mu's Dust Release, it was a sitting duck.

Summoning it would just consume Chakra?

Facing such agile enemies would only greatly reduce his agility, making it easy to be played for a fool.

The Wood Golem was good against Madara's Susanoo.

But who were those people below?

Each of them had extremely high mobility.

They were all very good at positioning.

Summoning a Wood Golem would just be a living target; it was better to fight alone.

"I can't let them drag this out…"

Senju Hashirama formed a hand sign, and then sixteen Wood Clones appeared around him!

Mu, flying in mid-air, changed his expression.

He seemed to know what Senju Hashirama was going to do!

Immediately after, Senju Hashirama assigned four Wood Clones to each of them.

Four Wood Clones against one of them!

Don't they like four-on-one?

Well, now it's also four-on-one for me; four of Senju Hashirama's Wood Clones against one of them!

Among them, four Wood Clones were staring intently at the sky.

Their target, obviously, was Mu!

"The sensory ability after entering Sage Mode has indeed become stronger…"

Mu looked at Senju Hashirama with admiration.

After entering Sage Mode, this guy could roughly sense his location!

Not that he could accurately sense his location,

But he could roughly determine his location.

To break free, he would have to stand still, only then would Senju Hashirama not sense him.

Once he made any movement, Senju Hashirama would determine his approximate location.

But if he stood still, what was the difference between that and being banned?

Seeing the Wood Clones before them,

Hōzuki Gengetsu, Shamon, and Second Raikage's expressions turned grim again.

One was already difficult, let alone four!

Currently, they couldn't see how to win…

"Baka yarou, how are we supposed to fight this?"

Hōzuki Gengetsu's face was grim.

His Ninjutsu originally required coordination, especially since he would enter a weakened state after Steam Impending Danger.

Now it was four-on-one, and he was in a weakened state.

There was no way to win; how was he supposed to fight?

Mu was also in a difficult situation at this moment.

However, it is said that there is always a way out.

He remembered the original story, where the Five Kage faced 25 Susanoo; his current situation was a bit better.

He could refer to Ōnoki's fighting style!

If that old geezer Ōnoki could wipe out twenty-five Susanoo in one go, then he, as his teacher and also possessing Immortal Technique, could also wipe out sixteen Wood Clones!
