LRAB Chapter 243 Rematch with Hanzo the Salamander!
Chapter 243 Rematch with Hanzo the Salamander!
Contracts are not such inconvenient things.
After two and a half days of simple study, Uchiha Yuuki unlocked a completely new way to play.
The contract transmits the power of the eyes!
"Uchiha Yuuki!" Hanzo of the Salamander's eyes sharpened in a long time as he stared intently at the tiny unicorn bug.
He clearly sensed that Uchiha Yuuki's aura originated from that tiny insect summoning beast.
The actual body was not present at the scene.
Can even an insect unleash such power?
Your skills have improved again.
Hanzo, the salamander, couldn't help but feel a sense of frustration.
Looking around at his subordinates, whose faces were filled with fervor and anticipation, he exuded a powerful aura of authority, his gaze hardening.
In my country, don't show that domineering attitude!
"Are you ninjas from Konoha? Come save me!" Several nobles who had been hiding rushed out and shouted in the direction of Uchiha Hachiyan.
The nobles' breathtaking actions made Yu Ren's eyes gleam with excitement.
One man, carrying a kunai, rushed towards the nobleman.
Any later and we wouldn't have been able to kill him.
These aristocrats, indulging in food, drink, and entertainment, suffered an overwhelming amount of 'pain' as kunai pierced their flesh and blood, their cries of agony a testament to their extravagance.
"Aren't you going to save the nobles?"
With a flick of his wrist, Hanzo the Salamander planted his sickle into the ground.
One hand gripped the scabbard, the other half held the hilt, and dark purple chakra condensed between his hands.
The screams of several nobles could be heard.
Yuuki said calmly, "The frontline commander appointed by the Daimyo of the Land of Fire is fighting bravely against the enemy, and I cannot interfere casually."
Hanzo the Salamander laughed and said, "Ten thousand samurai died in the Land of Rain, and more than a dozen nobles with names died tragically. How much turmoil will this cause in the Land of Fire?"
"And what about the Land of Rain?" Yuuki countered. "Can the Land of Fire be any worse off than the Land of Rain?"
Hanzo the Salamander couldn't manage a smile and could only remain silent.
It was more than just unpleasant.
The Land of Rain is on the verge of collapse.
When he first grasped the 'robbery and raiding' tactic and transformed Amegakure into a 'nomadic village,' he was filled with pride and enthusiasm.
How could anyone have come up with such a brilliant method to solve the village's predicament of being crushed by the Three Kingdoms and turned into a ninja meat grinder?
All they had to do was lead the village to continuously collect 'protection fees' from nearby towns.
The Land of Rain will become the sixth great power sooner or later!
Ideals are beautiful, but reality is cruel.
The entire village went underground, with only the area of Yuyin Village remaining visible in the open.
This means that Hanzo the Salamander abandoned the main grain-producing area on the east side of the Land of Rain, the mining area on the south side, the secondary grain-producing area and densely populated area on the west side, as well as the open transportation route on the north side.
These regions have been divided up by the three major powers.
Following the usual procedure, local villagers hire ninjas from the three major villages by commissioning them to protect their land.
The villagers may not say anything, but at least they can make ends meet.
They might even have a good period of time.
Unlike nobles, ninjas were not always wealthy and did not have such strict methods of exploitation.
However, the salamander Hanzo's venom deterred the three major villages from retreating.
The once pristine Land of Rain was left behind, but it became a paradise for rogue ninjas.
Are rogue ninjas unafraid of Hanzo the Salamander's threat?
Of course I'm not afraid!
He's already a traitor, yet he's willing to commit illegal, criminal, and even inhumane acts.
He might die after today.
Even if you use the Five Great Kage to intimidate them, the rogue ninja won't be afraid.
Thus, the Land of Rain entered a period of complete collapse.
Internally—
The economic system of the Rain Country has completely collapsed!
The Land of Rain is experiencing severe inflation.
Peasants were oppressed by three great mountains: nobles, rebels, and wealthy merchants.
The job they rely on for a living cannot provide them with the compensation necessary to survive.
The taxes of noblemen are not reduced or exempted.
The goods of wealthy merchants are soaring in price.
The traitorous spies' blades are ruthless.
Fortunately, the currency of the Rain Kingdom did not become completely worthless.
The currency is made by mixing a small amount of chakra metal powder, and it is recognized abroad.
Only ordinary civilians did not all starve to death.
As for Hanzo the Salamander's plundering spree?
No matter how hard one works, it is impossible to support tens of thousands of citizens of the Rain Kingdom on one's own.
foreign--
The nearby towns became 'noble-free districts', and the once prosperous trade routes were completely reduced to abandoned roads overgrown with weeds.
Hanzo the Salamander's 'plundering' range was limited to the extreme.
He didn't want to give up the Land of Rain.
His obsession is to transform the Land of Rain into the sixth great nation and Amegakure into the sixth great ninja village.
Instead of merely surviving!
Land may be abandoned, the country may be abandoned, and even ninjas may abandon a portion of it.
What exactly was he protecting by releasing it back and forth?!
Hanzo the Salamander exhaled a breath of stale air. "This is the tragedy of small countries."
Yuuki was filled with questions.
Just a couple of questions and you suddenly broke down?
Should I reply with, 'Great powers also have their difficulties?'
That's inappropriate; it's too provocative.
"Enough talk! Let me see just how powerful the young Uchiha was back then!"
Draw the knife!
cut!
Within the unicorn beetle's kaleidoscope, a purplish-black blade of light was reflected in its pupils.
"Ninjutsu!"
"Swordsmanship, poison, and water-style chakra—a trinity combined!"
If Yuuki were to give birth to a divine tree symbolizing swordsmanship and poison, it would imbue the ninja world with swordsmanship chakra and a certain kind of poison chakra.
With Hanzo the Salamander's talent, he might just be able to directly fuse with a brand new bloodline elimination!
"Form hand seals! Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!" Yuuki woke Uchiha Hachiyan from his daze.
Uchiha Hachiyan quickly formed hand seals, condensing intense chakra in his mouth, while the power of his Mangekyou Sharingan amplified the power of his ninjutsu.
The unicorn continued to gather strength on his shoulder.
The raging fire was extinguished!
The gushing fountain of fire met the blade's edge, which was filled with destruction and ominous intent, and crumbled upon contact.
The mighty fire was extinguished but then cut in two!
Even with the power of Susanoo, Uchiha Hachiyan's ninjutsu was still blocked.
The remaining edge of the blade severed century-old trees, leaving a long crater in the ground.
"We can't stop them!"
Uchiha Hachien was filled with despair, and three words kept repeating in his mind!
But the next moment.
A figure draped in a white cloak blocked his way!
He held a strangely shaped kunai in each hand!
The moment Susanoo's arm touched the blade's edge, a crack appeared on it.
It's a crack, not a fragmented compression!
This demonstrates that the blade's edge was sharp and swift!
Uchiha Yuuki released one hand, and his figure vanished instantly.
The terrifying, destructive blade light vanished instantly.
The kunai, suspended in mid-air, pierced the ground.
Yuuki's figure reappeared!
"Clan Chief!" Uchiha Hachiyan's face lit up with joy.
Yuuki turned his head and smiled, giving a thumbs up: "Hey, I'm not late, am I!"
He greeted them, then looked at Hanzo the Salamander again: "We meet again, Hanzo the Salamander leader?"
"Clan Chief Uchiha Yuuki!" Hanzo of the Salamander gripped his long sword tightly.
next moment!
Two pitch-black lines collided!
boom!
The longsword and kunai clashed dozens of times in succession, unleashing a powerful gale!
The blast was so intense that even the nearby ninjas could hardly stand!
The two fought and moved simultaneously!
Sand and stones flew, trees fell and roads collapsed!
The ninjas couldn't capture the scene of the battle; they only saw faint sparks and heard clanging sounds.
On the road, anyone caught in the fighting, regardless of their faction, was reduced to pieces!
Everyone present was stunned. Reading information in the archives was far less intuitive than seeing it in person.
"This is what a true ninja is like?"
"Are the collapsed houses and diverted rivers in the intelligence scroll true?"
"I always thought that the ninjas were a lie fabricated by local officials to swindle funding. I was wrong!"
Some samurai had not participated in battle for more than a decade.
They had no idea what the ninja world had become.
