The densely packed detonating symbols on the ground were like a huge whirlpool that was about to swallow Tsunade and Jiraiya.
"Tenshouji!"
Tsunade stepped on it with a bang, and the detonating talisman originally wrapped around her feet was shattered by the shock. But the remaining detonating talisman came around again like a poisonous snake.
"hiss!"
Hanzo's seal detonated his own secret technique.
"Ji Jizo!" Jiraiya shouted loudly, and then he threw himself at Tsunade desperately and hugged her in his arms. Then, the explosion sounded, deafening!
As smoke and dust rose up and gravel flew everywhere, the rock made by Tsunade had long since disappeared, turning into pieces and dissipating in the air.
When the smoke clears, an object resembling a silkworm cocoon appears. It turned out that at the same time as the explosion, Jiraiya used his hair to wrap the two of them. Hanzo looked at this jutsu and felt a little regretful, because his carefully planned attack failed again.
When the cocoon slowly turned back into soft hair, Jiraiya stood on the ground with scars all over his body. His legs seemed to have no strength to stand, so he had to be supported by Tsunade. It seemed that the explosion just now still caused a lot of damage to Jiraiya.
Tsunade was furious for a moment. A burn of this degree must be treated quickly. Jiraiya didn't care, his eyes still stayed on Hanzo to prevent Hanzo's sudden attack.
"Jiraiya, Tsunade!"
Orochimaru shouted when he heard the explosion. Then regardless of the frantic consumption of chakra, he directly used the method of exchanging injuries for injuries, breaking through the blockage of the Sansho Fish and coming to the two of them. The Sansho Fish also stopped attacking at Hanzo's signal.
"How are you two?!" Orochimaru asked eagerly. At this time, Jiraiya had many scars all over his body, which looked very serious.
"We were hit by the detonating talisman under Hanzo's cloth. If Jiraiya hadn't used the ninjutsu in time, we would have died just now." Tsunade said with some annoyance.
"...The gap is really not that big." Jiraiya reluctantly smiled at Orochimaru.
At this time, he could already feel his body weakening. In order to protect Tsunade, he completely withstood the explosion. The blood is in direct contact with the poisonous gas in the air, and the detoxification pills taken previously are no longer enough to resist this poison.
Hanzo jumped up high, climbed onto the head of the Sanshouyu, and looked down at the three of them with an impressive aura.
"Now that your team has been so seriously injured, what else can you do?"
Yes, what else can we do
The three people, who had almost exhausted all their means, stood in front of the huge black pepper fish and looked down. The man standing at the top still looked condescending.
They had reached their limit, but Hanzo never seemed to be giving his best.
"Life and death are between your thoughts, do you still want to hold on?"
"You should know very well that even if the three of us join forces, the gap between us and me will still be irreparable. Just admit defeat and you can survive." Hanzo persuaded the three of them very patiently.
"Don't be ridiculous! Konoha's ninjas don't have the habit of admitting defeat on the battlefield. Even if I die, I will never admit defeat!" Jiraiya, who was at the end of his strength, had no intention of admitting defeat.
It's not that he is trying to be brave, but that he has a reason why he absolutely cannot fail. His companions, disciples, and friends were all fighting on the battlefield behind him. If he gave up, how could he have the face to face those dead ninjas
Although Orochimaru and Tsunade did not speak, the look in their eyes showed their decision.
Never admit defeat!
The three of them looked directly at Hanzo, supporting each other and still refusing to give up.
Watching the expressions of the three of them, Hanzo suddenly closed his eyes at a certain moment. He was also very hesitant. Should he kill these three young people with potential directly, or let them go
He was very unwilling to kill him. This approach is undoubtedly letting the tiger return to the mountains, Konoha is already strong enough...
But if Jiraiya, Tsunade and Orochimaru are killed, under the anger of Konoha, even if Hanzo, Sunagakure and Iwagakure unite, they will suffer heavy losses.
Moreover, the most important thing is that the earth-shattering thunder escape repeatedly appeared in Hanzo's mind.
It's not that he looks down on the other two major countries. Judging from his years of knowledge, most of the people who can use this kind of thunder escape are Konoha's ninjas.
Hanzo already had a vague feeling in his heart that Konoha had won this war. Even the United Army is no match for Konoha. If the disciples of the Third Hokage are killed...will the Kingdom of Rain still exist
Thinking of this...
Hanzo's originally concentrated killing intent also began to dissipate, "I haven't seen such outstanding juniors as you for a long time. Your strength has been recognized by me. You three, let's go... "
"Clam?!"
Hanzo's words made Jiraiya, Tsunade and the others look stunned.
Just now it was a fight to the death. Judging from the situation of this fight, it is likely that they died at the hands of Hanzo. But Hanzo suddenly showed an attitude of cherishing his talent and asked the three of them to leave. This transformation is too weird.
Jiraiya was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No, we can't let you enter the battlefield!"
"Don't worry, since I will let you three go, I will naturally not continue to join forces with the Iwa Ninja and Sand Ninja. Of course, I will not enter the battlefield." Hanzo shook his head.
This was a situation that neither Jiraiya nor Tsunade expected.
Orochimaru narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Hanzo and said, "You gave up entering the battlefield, wouldn't it be just because of the three of us, right?"
He never believed that Hanzo, who could rule the Rain Ninja Village as the leader, was a good person. Even if he didn't kill them, there was some reason for cherishing his talent, but it couldn't be that simple.
Hanzo crossed his arms and looked down at the three of them, "It's very simple. Konoha should have won this war. Then it would be pointless for us to continue fighting. So, I will be merciful and let you live. Such an explanation for you Are you satisfied?"
"We don't need your pity, we can still fight!" Jiraiya was angered by Hanzo's condescending attitude.
"Stop talking, Jiraiya." Tsunade looked at Jiraiya's injuries worriedly.
Hanzo ignored Jiraiya and turned around to leave. But he suddenly looked back. Orochimaru and the other three immediately became vigilant.
"Don't be nervous, kiddos. You three survived in my hands, which is enough to be proud of. Let me think about it..." Hanzo looked down at the three of them, "Well... from now on, I will Call you the Sannin of Konoha... As the price of your lives, from now on, live with the name given to you by the demigods."
Hanzo laughed and said, then stamped his foot on the head of the Sansho Fish. As if it understood, it jumped directly over the heads of Jiraiya and the other three, and flew towards the distance.
"Konoha... Sannin?! What is this? Compared with my toad ninja, the taste is really far behind!" Jiraiya loudly vented his dissatisfaction to Hanzo's retreating figure.
Tsunade on the side smiled and said: "Okay, my toad ninja! No matter what his purpose is, at least we survived."
Hearing this, Jiraiya also smiled.
The poisonous gas that filled the sky became weaker and weaker as Hanzo left.
"It seems that he has really left." Orochimaru saw this and said, "Let's go, we are still not done with this battle."
After hearing this, Jiraiya stopped worrying about it.
Immediately the three of them looked at each other and quickly returned to the battlefield.
But the three of them didn't know that the title given by the demigod would accompany them throughout their lives. It's more like shackles than honor, reminding them of today's... shame.
