Chapter 10 - Chapter 10 Esdeath, Finish It Quickly!

Hidden Mist Jutsu!

Tsunade's face changed dramatically. Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly found herself inside a cage, a cage made of ice.

Seeing this, Tsunade couldn't help but murmur, "This is…"

"Ice Flower, my defensive technique. You'll be very safe inside, and it's a full 360-degree defense without any blind spots," Alice Lize's voice slowly echoed.

She was right behind Tsunade, staying with her inside this ice cage.

Tsunade looked down and saw that the ground beneath her feet was also covered in ice.

This meant that she and Alice Lize were completely encased in ice.

However, it was a square ice cage.

The internal space was large, but… it was completely covered.

Enemies couldn't get in.

Kunai striking the ice produced a harsh metallic clang, leaving not even a trace, and instead freezing in place.

"Is this power of yours Ice Release?" Tsunade asked slowly, lowering her head.

Her jade feet, clad in high-heeled sandals, walked around inside the cage, her red nail polish standing out conspicuously.

"No, it's not the same power you're familiar with," Alice Lize explained.

Then, she added, "However, Esdeath also possesses freezing power, but it's different from mine. Don't misunderstand, that's not Ice Release either."

Tsunade: "..."

That woman named Esdeath has it too?

No, is this kind of power so common now? I'm a bit confused. Is it that I'm unknowledgeable, or has the ninja world changed too much?

"Wait, what about Bai Mu?"

Although Tsunade often spoke of the Uchiha as inherently evil, she still felt a hint of gratitude towards Bai Mu. After all, he had saved her; she couldn't just forget him.

Besides, the Hidden Mist Jutsu's interference with the Sharingan's vision was extremely detrimental to Bai Mu's combat, so Tsunade believed her extra question was merely out of concern for a fellow village ninja.

At least they were teammates; she couldn't be indifferent.

Alice Lize stood still, her expression natural and calm, saying unhurriedly, "Don't worry, his strength far exceeds your imagination. We just need to stand here and watch. The matters outside will be handled by him and Esdeath."

"Really?"

Tsunade frowned slightly.

She wasn't trying to be skeptical.

It was just that the enemy had a large number of people, and there were many jounin. This was not an ordinary attack; it was a premeditated one.

Right, that's the problem.

Is one Uchiha worth so much attention?

Or did they detect me and change their strategy?

"Just watch, our strength isn't as simple as you think," Alice Lize said indifferently. She didn't want to say more. Just be patient and watch; there was no need for any unnecessary actions.

Not as simple as I think?

Just how not simple is it? What a boast.

Tsunade had many questions in her heart, but there seemed no need to delve deeper into them. She wouldn't ask the same thing repeatedly.

Bai Mu still gave her a strange feeling, so her guard remained up. She wasn't just going to blindly trust him. So, what Tsunade needed to do was simple.

Wait, watch, and if things really went south, she would act.

This thing can't hold me.

The ice cage couldn't trap her.

That was Tsunade's confidence.

If Alice Lize knew what Tsunade was thinking, she would only say, "You're really overthinking it. This ice cage of mine isn't that easy to break."

Bai Mu's voice echoed in the thick fog: "Esdeath, finish it quickly."

"Throat, spine, lungs, liver, subclavian artery, heart…"

"Uchiha brat, you talk big, but can you even take care of yourself now? Do you know if you can dodge every single one of these weak points on the body? Even if you dodge, how many times can you dodge?"

From within the thick fog, the words of a Hidden Mist ninja came, including the names of fatal organs, sending shivers down one's spine and instilling fear.

If it were an ordinary person, they would probably already have weak knees.

After all, in this dense fog, where you couldn't see your hand in front of your face, it was impossible to see clearly. An enemy's kunai could be right in front of you without being noticed.

And only when you fell would you realize you had been hit.

An ordinary person definitely couldn't withstand it, but Bai Mu was clearly no ordinary person.

Such ridiculous tricks were useless against him.

"Dogs that bite don't bark."

Bai Mu smiled faintly, responding softly.

Such arrogant words undoubtedly infuriated the Hidden Mist ninjas hidden in the fog. One of them immediately retorted, "You're the dog."

Saying such things was purely to provoke. And among them, several ninjas from the Kaguya clan, being hot-headed and easily provoked, naturally couldn't tolerate it.

The Kaguya clan, pure battle maniacs, were not normal in the head.

Therefore, Bai Mu's arrogant words naturally caused those few Kaguya clan ninjas to immediately enter a berserk state, and three figures charged out from the thick fog.

"Shikotsumyaku: Ten-Finger Drilling Bullets!"

Two figures flanked him from the left and right, both wielding bone blades at Bai Mu, while the figure in the center fired finger bones from all ten fingers, shooting towards Bai Mu.

Their coordination could be said to be excellent. For an ordinary person, they would basically be subdued, or at least severely wounded.

But for Bai Mu, it was truly useless.

He possessed triple defenses: Susanoo, Golden Light Divine Curse, and physical defense, with defensive power increasing from lowest to highest.

In other words, Susanoo was actually the weakest defense, thanks to Bai Mu being tempered by the power of origin, making his physical body so strong that even the Otsutsuki couldn't compare.

Therefore, the Kaguya clan's Shikotsumyaku, though boasted as the strongest spear in attack and the strongest shield in defense, whether spear or shield,

Bai Mu didn't take them seriously. Susanoo manifested directly, just in its initial form, golden ribs enveloping him, blocking the Kaguya clan's three ninjas' fatal strike.

Impossible!

The three found it hard to believe.

But they reacted quickly, retreating immediately after failing to hit.

Especially the two Kaguya clan ninjas wielding bone blades, when they realized that their bone blades striking Bai Mu's suddenly appearing golden bones didn't even cause a ripple, they were undoubtedly shocked.

All this time, the Kaguya clan ninjas firmly believed that Shikotsumyaku was the strongest, whether in offense or defense… What happened before their eyes was hard for them to accept, practically unimaginable.

"Is this all you're capable of?"

Bai Mu smiled faintly, his tone full of disdain.

Suddenly, a giant golden skeletal arm appeared out of thin air and directly grabbed the two Kaguya clan ninjas who hadn't had time to retreat.

"What?"

The two were crushed before they could say anything, their flesh and blood mixing together, exploding into gore. The Kaguya clan male who had only attacked from a distance, seeing this, instantly lost control of his emotions.

His clansmen were killed, and in such a gruesome manner… This was intolerable. I must avenge my clansmen.

The remaining Kaguya ninja roared.

"I'll kill you!"
