Chapter 175 Seems like a toad from Mount Myōboku
wow——
It suddenly started raining.
Mei Terumi looked up at the sky thoughtfully.
"Wow, it even has built-in rain-bringing properties, huh?"
Bai Mo felt it was a bit of a pity, as the blue stone hadn't absorbed enough natural energy.
Otherwise, he really wanted to see if there was an effect from the Origin Sea that could completely disable Fire Release ninjutsu.
"Lord Mizukage, come here!"
Ringo Ameyuri leaped up and landed on the lake, awaiting her battle with Terumi Mei.
"Wait a moment, I need to test the power of a few spells first."
Mei Terumi remained calm, remembering Bai Mo's warning: she couldn't let Ringo Ameyurima be taken away with a single ninjutsu.
"Lava escape..."
"Boiling Release..."
"Water Release..."
Mei Terumi then used her three signature techniques one by one on the open areas of the lake.
In the original work, Mei Terumi underperformed in her battle against Madara Uchiha. As the Mizukage, it was only natural that she was responsible for blocking Madara's fire-style attacks.
But when the Great Fire Annihilation Arrow was used to roast the Flower Tree World, she fainted before she could use her Water Release technique, and Onoki had to save her with his Dust Release technique.
Next, she had to use Water Release to block Fire Release, but because she didn't have time to use it, she could only rely on her teammates to block the damage.
However, if Mei Terumi were to unleash her ninjutsu, whether it's Lava Release or Water Release, its range and power would be quite considerable.
With those surging waves (referring to Water Release and Melt Release), one might mistake Mei Terumi's mouth for Kaguya's sulfuric acid sea space.
Mei Terumi can use Lava Release and Water Release without forming hand seals, or with only one hand seal.
Hand seals were created by Indra. The Sage of Six Paths and his family could easily unleash ninjutsu. The purpose of hand seals was to allow ordinary people with insufficient talent to concentrate their minds and more easily mobilize their chakra.
It's like a blank sheet of paper. If you look at the center of the blank paper, it's hard to concentrate. But if you draw a black dot on the blank paper, it's very easy.
Forming hand seals, and in certain situations, shouting out the name of a move, all have this effect.
Mei Terumi can simplify hand seals, or even release techniques without them, and the power of her release techniques is not bad. In essence, she is already quite good, having maximized her proficiency in ninjutsu.
If placed in the era before everyone in the ninja world had superpowers, he would be at least at the level of a demigod, Hanzo.
It's just a pity that it came at the wrong time.
Now, Mei Terumi is surprised to find that whether she uses her bloodline limit or ordinary water jutsu, it is much smoother than before.
Normally, if she can form hand seals, she definitely will.
It's more comfortable to release ninjutsu by forming hand seals.
But just now, she didn't feel the need to form hand seals at all.
Just as Mei Terumi was savoring the feeling from just now and experiencing the changes in her body, a voice came from behind.
"Huh? This attack looks familiar..."
The one who said this was Hashirama Senju, who was racking his brains, trying to figure out where he had seen it before.
Mei Terumi didn't think much of what he said.
As a result, Hashirama Senju suddenly had a burst of intelligence and realized why the face looked familiar.
"I've got it! Spraying filthy slime! Water-spraying attacks! Isn't that a characteristic of the toads of Mount Myōboku? Haha!"
Hashirama Senju was pleased to have figured out why the face looked familiar.
"A toad?!"
Mei Terumi's expression froze, and the corner of her mouth twitched.
She suddenly had a strong urge to change her opponent to Hashirama Senju.
However, Mei Terumi thought again, regardless of whether she could win in her current state, Hashirama Senju was in the Edo Tensei state, so even if she beat him up, he wouldn't feel any pain.
As for losing face?
If he can kowtow in public, why would he care about losing face?
hiss……
Mei Terumi suddenly understood what it meant to be "shameless and invincible".
Ugh.
We had no choice but to give up on that idea.
Mei Terumi's gaze returned to Ringo Ameyuri: "Ameyuri, come on, I'll be right there..."
Huh?
What about people?
"Lord Mizukage, when are we setting off back?"
Ringo Ameyuri had already rejoined the team sometime earlier and was urging Terumi Mei to prepare to set off.
"...Aren't you going to fight anymore?"
Mei Terumi paused for a moment, then asked.
"Lord Mizukage, I haven't lived enough yet! Look at what you just sprayed at me! How am I supposed to block it?"
Ringo Yuri pointed to the molten slime that still covered the lake surface, and the water erosion that had carved a trench across the lake's surface.
Then he shook the two thunder blades in his hand, making two hissing sounds.
Lightning Release ninjas do have an advantage over Water Release ninjas, but that also depends on the difference in strength.
She only wanted to challenge the strong, not to die at their hands.
Otherwise, why didn't she have any desire to challenge the legendary ninja god Hashirama Senju after learning that he was here?
It's because she knows her place.
Haven't lived enough yet?
Hearing Ringo Ameyuri's half-joking words, Mei Terumi's eyes showed a hint of pity. She slowly floated from the lakeside to Ringo Ameyuri's side and touched her face: "Ameyuri, to tell you the truth, you have a serious illness and don't have many years to live."
"what?"
Ringo Ameyuri's smile froze.
They didn't even care why the Mizukage could suddenly fly.
"Lord Mizukage, you can't say things like that just because I'm not fighting you anymore, can you? This isn't something you can joke about!"
Ringo Yuri looked anxious.
Huh?
Hearing this, Kurozuki Raiga, who was standing to the side, was stunned for a moment.
And such good things?
Could it be that he didn't lose the Thunder Blade forever, but simply rented it out for a few years?
"But it's okay. This time you go with Bai Mo. He has people there who can heal you. Once you've recovered, you can go back to Wuyin Village."
Mei Terumi stopped keeping her in suspense and, seeing that Yuri Ringo was getting anxious, immediately explained the situation to her.
Is there any hope for my illness?
Ringo Ameyuri seemed to have grasped at a straw, turning her head expectantly to look at Bai Mo.
Although she didn't know what illness she had.
"Go back and get checked first."
"oh."
Ringo Yuri immediately ran to Bai Mo's team and stood at attention.
"what?"
After finishing her business, Mei Terumi finally realized that she was floating in the air.
"This feeling is like being in water."
Mei Terumi floated and moved twice in the air.
It not only felt like being in water, but it was also quite fast.
"What a pity, there are no opponents. Let's leave it at that for now."
Mei Terumi landed back on the ground, preparing to dissolve her form and then return to her own home.
"Wait a moment!"
Hashirama Senju quickly called out to stop her, running up to Mei Terumi. "Wouldn't it be a shame to end it like this? How about I become your opponent? To fight against the Otsutsuki clan, you need to accumulate combat experience as soon as possible."
—After much painful reflection, Hashirama Senju finally discovered his role beyond his Hashirama cells: to be a sparring partner.
"Um?"
Mei Terumi was somewhat surprised.
She had just thought about this, but now she didn't expect the First Hokage to take the initiative to come to her?
Mei Terumi suddenly became alert.
She recalled how the First Hokage had just called her a toad from Mount Myōboku, and now he was pretending to be a sparring partner.
Could this be a case of feigning politeness before resorting to force, starting humbly and then becoming arrogant, in an attempt to regain face?
