This Ninja Is Obviously Not Strong but Really Hard to Kill

Chapter 496: The Scary Slug

Tsunade was truly enraged this time. How dare someone attack her beloved disciple right in front of her?

Unforgivable!

The 'Oreo cookies' beneath Tsunade's feet shattered with a thunderous crash.

Then, leveraging this explosive force, Tsunade immediately gave chase while loudly cautioning Shizune to be careful!

Shizune realized that she was the target of the enemy. However, she didn't panic; instead, she immediately opened her mouth and exhaled a purple, poisonous mist to drive the attacker away.

Ninja Art: Poison Mist!

This was Shizune's unique technique, transforming the chakra in her body into a unique chemical compound and exhaling it.

Upon contact with the air, it would become a purple poisonous mist. For most people, even a slight inhalation could be fatal, making it extremely dangerous.

When Aoba saw Shizune start to release the poison, he immediately slowed down.

Although he was highly resistant, he didn't have much resistance to poison and could only rely on his "Ultra-Fast Regeneration" to withstand it directly.

But then, he remembered an item in his ninja tool bag that had been gathering dust for a long time.

The "Kakashi Model N95 Mask"!

This item could protect against dust, smog, and poison gases, acting as a gas mask!

It even had an internal circulation filter, so he didn't need to worry about the poison mist ahead.

So, Aoba, slowing down his pace, quickly took the "Kakashi Model N95 Mask" from his tool bag. He ducked his head to remove his mask, put it on the N95, and then replaced his red mask.

All set!

But by then, Tsunade had already caught up to him from behind.

Seeing him slow down, apparently, due to fear of Shizune's poison mist, she smirked coldly, ready to first beat this jerk who dared target her adorable disciple half to death before interrogating him!

However, to Tsunade's surprise, after briefly ducking his head, the man burst forward at his original breakneck speed, fearlessly charging into the poison mist.

Tsunade's eyes widened in hesitation, wondering whether to swallow an antidote and charge in after him.

But confident in Shizune's poison, she hesitated for a moment...

In a flash, a figure burst out of the dense purple poison mist; it was indeed the man who had just charged in.

What enraged Tsunade even more was that this man was carrying someone on his shoulder.

"Shizune!"

Tsunade was incredulous; not only had he been immune to Shizune's deadly poison, but he had also knocked Shizune unconscious and was now kidnapping her.

This was no longer just fury; it was outright rage!

A genuine murderous intent flashed in Tsunade's eyes for the first time.

Don't be fooled by her usual enjoyment in teasing and making fun of Shizune; that privilege is hers alone!

No one else who dares bully her disciple will escape without paying a heavy price!

With a loud bang!

In anger, Tsunade slapped the ground and summoned Katsuyu.

"It's been a long time, Lady Tsunade~ Who has made you so angry this time?" the giant slug spoke in a sweet voice.

Standing atop Katsuyu, Tsunade crisply replied, "Katsuyu, let's save the pleasantries for later. Someone has kidnapped my disciple. They're too fast, and I couldn't keep up, so I need your help."

Katsuyu immediately fixed its gaze on a swiftly running figure.

"So that's the guy who kidnapped Lady Tsunade's disciple, huh? That's despicable, but don't worry, leave it to me."

"Slug Explosion!"

Suddenly, Katsuyu burst open, and countless smaller slugs fell like rain toward the direction where Aoba was fleeing.

Even Aoba himself hadn't expected Tsunade to pursue him in this manner.

When he regained his senses, he was surrounded by sticky slugs crawling everywhere.

He almost broke out in goosebumps!

Even more terrifying was that the small slugs on the ground fused in the blink of an eye to form a gigantic slug.

"Put down Lady Tsunade's disciple, or face the consequences~"

Reluctantly, Aoba had to summon the "Seven Swordsmen of the Mist" to clear a path for him while he continued to dodge areas with slugs and break out.

"Naughty children need to be punished~"

"Acidic Tongue Spit!"

Suddenly, Katsuyu spat out a torrent of pale yellow liquid like a downpour.

Because of his speed, and perhaps because Katsuyu was cautious not to harm Shizune accidentally, it only enveloped the "Seven Swordsmen of the Mist" within its attack range.

Then, a terrifying scene unfolded!

The "Seven Swordsmen of the Mist," despite their elite jounin strength, had no resistance at all and were instantly dissolved!

As one of Katsuyu's rarely displayed offensive techniques, this highly corrosive liquid could dissolve almost anything.

This was truly horrifying!

Having dodged, Aoba felt his scalp tingle as he watched this scene, and he also felt a bit sad—several million Ryo went down the drain!

He wouldn't have wasted money summoning the "Seven Swordsmen of the Mist" to their deaths if he had known!

What was even more frustrating was that these slugs were immune to physical attacks and seemed to possess spatial transference abilities.

Scary, really scary...

While Aoba used the "Seven Swordsmen of the Mist" to distract attention, he also used "Illusory Deception" to try to lower his presence and sneak away.

But his hopes were dashed almost immediately!

Being hard to notice doesn't mean becoming invisible or disappearing.

In a situation where slugs were everywhere and could share visual information, it hardly took any effort to find him again.

To make matters worse, Tsunade had also arrived on the scene.

Aoba regretted using the transformation ability of the "Dark Fallen Angel" during his previous fight with Itachi. Otherwise, he could have flown away, leaving Tsunade and Katsuyu staring helplessly on the ground.

Unfortunately, he was not a prophet.

He couldn't have anticipated that simply coming to retrieve a mask would land him in such misfortune, encountering Tsunade and then running into a tricky situation that forced him to return and face his fate.

Moreover, they were now close to Konoha, and with all the commotion, it was possible that people from Konoha would soon come to investigate.

With no other choice, Aoba felt that, besides taking some risks, there was nothing else he could do.

After all, if he continued to hide his skills, it would be difficult for him to leave this place alive today.

So, upon activating "Instantaneous Door," he immediately started the "Nine Turns Thunder Fury" and also turned up the skin effects of the "Crimson Swordsman" to the maximum to avoid being recognized later.
