The Eight-foot Mirror is said to be the strongest defensive magic in the legend, and it really lives up to its reputation. The powerful lightning continuously bombarded the Eight-foot Mirror but failed to break it.

Unfortunately, even though the attack was blocked, it does not mean that there will be no damage. If fire is accompanied by high temperature, then lightning has the ability to spread in every possible way.

The lightning blocked by the Eight-foot Mirror did not completely disappear. Most of the remaining energy was scattered everywhere and fell on the lake surface that had not yet evaporated. Powerful streaks of lightning streaked across the water surface. Naturally, many of them also spread to Susanoo. The Eight-foot Mirror was said to be an absolute defense, but it was not completely blind. Being attacked by both lightning and high temperature, even a complete Susanoo could not be unscathed.

The lake was filled with thick steam, and countless fire clones were still waving their arms and emitting heat. The destructive lightning began to rage again, and no natural creature could survive in the area covered. Only a red giant was struggling to hold on.

"Itachi, are you okay?"

Hoshigaki Kisame looked worriedly at Uchiha Itachi, whose face was a little pale and dark blood was flowing from the corners of his eyes.

"It's okay, let's go!" He sensed that there was no one nearby, and the opponent had really left.

"Okay, let's find a place to rest first!" Hoshigaki Kisame was also a little tired. In fact, apart from a few minor injuries, the consumption of his physical strength and chakra was not worth mentioning at all. Instead, the psychological sense of urgency was very tiring.

"I was tricked this time. I should have taken action earlier. Itachi, are all sages this scary? Jiraiya didn't seem to be that powerful last time!"

Uchiha Itachi controlled Susanoo and walked out of the coverage of the Senjutsu Fire Style - Thousand Orders!

"Last time in Konoha, Jiraiya was too cautious and couldn't use many powerful ninjutsu. It's not that he's not strong enough. The Sage Mode is definitely not as simple as imagined!"

"Yeah!" Hoshigaki Kisame nodded and agreed with Uchiha Itachi's statement, "I underestimated the enemy. I should have attacked first, otherwise it wouldn't be so miserable!"

The ultimate-level secret techniques are all of the type where the first-strike advantage is gained, and once you are hit, it is very difficult to turn the tables.

"This person must be the ninja who was with Hatake Kakashi and Might Guy in Konoha last time. I didn't expect him to be so powerful now. The reputation about him that is circulating in the ninja world is not nonsense!"

"He killed that bad-tempered guy Scorpion, so he's definitely not an ordinary guy. Be careful next time you meet him!"

…

As the main force in maintaining public order during the Chunin Exams, the safety of the village and the surrounding areas were all within the responsibility of Hatake Kakashi. If the fighting between Mizuki and Shimura Danzo was considered small, the thunderclouds that had not dissipated for a long time in the sky not far away made people very uneasy. Chakra fluctuations came one after another, and no one could ignore this movement. Especially in such a place not far from Konoha Village, there were such powerful ninjas fighting, and judging from the direction, it seemed that the village elder Shimura Danzo was where he was, which made people pay attention.

He led the emergency team to the scene of the accident, but five masked "Root" ninjas were intercepted in a panic along the way.

"What did you say? Mizuki killed Elder Danzo? How is that possible?" Hatake Kakashi said, "Are you mistaken? I saw Mizuki not long ago. He was dealing with matters related to the Chunin Exam. It's impossible for him to do such a thing."

"Shuimu has the ability to create lifelike clones..."

Kakashi interrupted the other party, shook his head and said: "I can still tell the difference between the clone and the real body. You don't need to teach me this. Before we get accurate information, we can't doubt a meritorious jonin of our village."

Since no one saw the attacker, and there were no witnesses except Danzo and the "Root" ninja, it is hard to convince people with just words without any evidence. If they really suspect their own people with such far-fetched reasons, wouldn't every ninja be in danger?

Moreover, the movement in front and the style of ninjutsu are basically incompatible with Mizuki, and it is obvious that other powerful ninjas appeared there.

After a while, the rescue team met Danzo Shimura who was resting on the side of the road. His right arm had been sealed again, and his right eye's Sharingan was also covered, but his whole body looked as if he had suffered a great loss.

"Danzo-sama!"

The "Root" ninja hurried over to check on his condition, and after finding that he was not seriously injured, he was temporarily relieved.

Seeing the look on Shimura Danzo's face, Hatake Kakashi couldn't help but frown. The person who could force Shimura Danzo into this state was not someone you could just meet casually. He must have been watching his actions for a long time and made his actions after careful consideration.

Mizuki's conflict with the "Root" ninjas has been going on for a long time, and he has heard that he has been deliberately targeted recently. As for Mizuki's revenge, Hatake Kakashi doesn't think it's impossible, but...

"Master Danzo, I wonder who you met. Looking at the noise in the distance, it seems that two groups of powerful ninjas are fighting!"

"That's Hoshigaki Kisame and Uchiha Itachi!"

Danzo stared at the movement in the distance in a trance, and said in a deep voice, "The one fighting them on the other side should be Mizuki, but now I am a little unsure!"

That's right, if they knew Mizuki was so strong, they would never have taken such superficial actions to alert the enemy! A ninja who can create such a momentum is definitely not something that can be dealt with by a little trick.

"Do you want to move forward?"

The subordinates came to ask Hatake Kakashi for the next instructions. The heat wave mixed with water vapor has spread to such a far place. If it gets too close, the people present may not be able to bear it.

Just as Hatake Kakashi was hesitating, the tall figure of Susanoo appeared in front of everyone. The red warrior holding a huge sword was someone that many people had seen during the last attack on Konoha. It was obviously Uchiha Itachi's technique.

"Water jutsu should be the masterpiece of Hoshigaki Kisame. If we add Uchiha Itachi, then the one fighting against him is really Mizuki? The fact that he is good at fire jutsu is somewhat similar!"

At this moment, everyone had a new understanding of how powerful the Sage Mode was, which allowed one to give it one's all without any scruples.

Just when everyone's eyes were still on the raging complete form of Susanoo, silver lightning fell from the clouds, and the Susanoo below was not to be outdone. The scene of lightning and fire splashing everywhere once again refreshed many people's speculations about the upper limit of the power of ninjutsu.
