After taking over the snake uncle's foundation, Sasuke came to surrender on his own initiative.

The atmosphere within the barrier became increasingly tense.

The invisible murderous intent of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Ototake condensed into momentum, confronting each other tit for tat, completely banning the sounds of insects and birds in the barrier, and the air was extremely oppressive.

As the invisible aura of the two men advanced and retreated, the air began to surge, and the two black ribbons behind Sarutobi Hiruzen's head also danced in the wind.

The short black bangs on Yinzhu's forehead were also moved and began to sway gently.

This kind of confrontation does not test one's strength, but tests whether the ninjas on both sides have the firmness to face the endless murderous intent oppressing their hearts.

After staring at each other for a long time, Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly stared at Yinzhu and laughed, saying hoarsely, "With such a strong heart, it's no wonder that he was able to kill Orochimaru. I don't know where he found a genius like you as his disciple after leaving Konoha. You are so young and powerful. It's a pity... He made a mistake in the end..."

At the end, there was some emotion in his voice, and it was obvious that he had not completely gotten over the death of his disciple.

Yin Zhu smiled faintly, "If you want to know the answer, you have to survive from my hands first!"

He was not in a hurry to take action before because he wanted to create opportunities and time for Kabuto to act, create as much damage as possible, distract the attention of the Konoha ninjas who were rushing towards the barrier, and reduce the pressure on Zabuza and others.

But now...the time has almost come.

"..."

As if he understood what Ototake said, the emotion on Sarutobi Hiruzen's face quickly disappeared. His body was slightly hunched, making him look even thinner, and his whole body was tense.

Clang——!!!

Endless murderous intent suddenly and violently spread within the barrier like a raging tide!

Swah——

Swah——

The two men's bodies shook at the same time and disappeared on the wide steps at the top of the west stand. When they reappeared the next moment, they were almost within reach.

But what arrived before Sarutobi Hiruzen was a shuriken spinning at high speed. His eyes turned cold, and he leaned forward and stomped his feet towards Yinzhu, while his hands formed seals at high speed.

"Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique!"

One life two, two beget three, three beget all things.

In an instant, a dense storm of shurikens like a swarm of insects appeared in front of Yin Zhu, covering almost all of his space for movement.

"You old ninjas always like to do these boring tests!"

Yin Zhu's face darkened as he spoke sarcastically. He did not stop his forward steps, but clapped his hands in front of his chest, clasped his fingers together, and shouted in a low voice, "Si!"

ka ka ka-

In the blink of an eye, his body was covered with a layer of black armor, which reflected a faint metallic light.

In the personal panel, the level of "Earth Escape - Earth Spear Technique" has reached 7th level. Yin Zhu has greatly simplified the steps of making hand seals. It only requires one tail seal to release it instantly.

It is conceivable that once he upgrades all the ninjutsu he knows to level 10, he will be able to achieve the amazing level of Hashirama Senju, who can make whatever he shouts come true without any hand seals.

Ding ding ding ding ding ding…

The sound of metal colliding was endless, like the sound of iron flowers being struck, and the air between the two people suddenly burst into endless sparks.

"Damn it..." Sarutobi Hiruzen's pupils shrank, "I didn't expect this guy's earth escape technique to be so advanced that even my shuriken couldn't penetrate it..."

All the shurikens were blown away.

But just as he was surprised, a tingling sensation suddenly came over him. "Not good!" Sarutobi Hiruzen's face trembled, and his arms covered in old-fashioned armor quickly crossed in front of his face.

As if teleporting, Yinzhu's fist instantly arrived in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen. With the help of the earth spear that could attack and defend at the same time, the huge force on the fist suddenly exploded.

Bang-!

Sarutobi Hiruzen was directly knocked away by a punch. When he landed, he stomped his feet hard on the ground until several spider-web-like cracks appeared on the bluestone ground, and then he stopped.

Click!

The crisp sound was like glass breaking.

Sarutobi Hiruzen lowered his head, a stern look on his face.

He made a gauntlet out of a lot of gold...

It's broken!

The part hit by Yin Zhu's fist was broken into pieces, cracks were slowly spreading around the elbow, and metal fragments kept falling down.

Rustle...rustle...

When Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his head, his expression was extremely solemn. "This guy...what a fast speed! What a strong power!"

He looked at the young figure from afar, and a long-lost pressure suddenly rose in his heart. "How could Orochimaru teach such a disciple? This time... I'm afraid it's really troublesome..."

But it just feels troublesome.

Having been the Hokage for nearly half a century and respected by the world as the Professor of Ninjutsu, he was able to see through Ototake's reliance on physical skills at a glance and instantly found a way to restrain him.

"Psychic - Ape King - Ape Demon!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's hand seals flew up and down, and in the blink of an eye a burst of white smoke exploded on the spot. The wind blew gently, revealing the figure of a monkey with long pure white whiskers on both sides of his cheeks.

It's the ape demon.

It has a dark complexion, wears a Konoha ninja forehead protector, a white waistcoat, and an old-fashioned dark brown robe from the human Warring States period.

"Old boy!"

A familiar old voice sounded in his ears. Enma turned his head and met Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes. He understood the other's thoughts tacitly and nodded slightly.

"Transform! Vajra Ruyi Stick!"

"what!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen picked up the stick and shouted loudly.

He jumped up and turned around in the air, then the Vajra Ruyi Stick in his hand rotated 360 degrees and then smashed it down at Yin Zhu from a distance.

"Take my stick!"

As the Vajra Ruyi Stick fell, it suddenly grew ten times larger. A twenty-meter-long, two-color black and gold stick as thick as two arms could hold came crashing down!

"Woo-woo--" the air made a vibrating and buzzing sound, and the stick fell with a tremendous force.

Yin Zhu stood there, looked up with interest, smacked his lips, and looked weird, "Tsk... isn't this the golden cudgel?"

boom--! ! !

The black-gold double sticks whipped down fiercely, and the ground instantly cracked open with a gap more than ten meters long. Debris flew everywhere, stirring up dust all over the sky, and the ground shook violently.

In the dust.

Sarutobi Hiruzen widened his eyes and maximized his perception.

suddenly!

The sudden chakra reaction from behind him made his old face frightened instantly! "When!?" He immediately turned around and swept across with his stick.

hum-

But the white figure flashed in the gray vision and disappeared from his sight in an instant.

After another sweep of the stick, Sarutobi Hiruzen's face became stern.

"This is definitely not the speed that the Instant Body Technique should have!"
