In battles between ninjas, they would only cautiously test the waters when they had absolutely no idea of ​​the situation.

But for Hyuga Hizashi, who was resurrected by the Impure World Reincarnation, there is no such concern.

When the user of soft fist attacks in a way that is mutually destructive and almost self-harming, one can imagine the pressure on the opponent.

Hinata Hyuga suffered a great loss from the beginning because she fought the Impure World Body with the mentality of fighting against a living person.

She ignored the attack aimed directly at the heart and instead launched a strong attack just to cause some non-fatal damage to the enemy's arm. This kind of fighting method was something Hyuga Hinata had never experienced before. Even an experienced jonin would suffer if he was not careful.

When it comes to battles between humans and non-humans, don’t apply past combat experience, or you’ll regret it.

In just a few rounds, Hinata Hyuga was hit several times in her hands, shoulders and abdomen.

The destructive power of the soft fist is nothing to the Impure World Body, but it is very serious for Hyuga Hinata. Even if they are not fatal injuries, they can be dangerous if accumulated.

The Filthy Earth Body has inexhaustible physical strength, and does not need to rest or interrupt its attacks.

So Hyuga Hinata didn't even have the chance to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth.

In just a moment, the situation became extremely critical.

Although his legs could still support him with trembling, his upper body was almost paralyzed, and his raised arms could no longer be used to form a standard soft fist stance.

Even though she was unwilling, Hyuga Hinata knew that she could not hold on for much longer.

With Hinata Hyuga's strength, she shouldn't be defeated so quickly and so miserably.

But in a life-and-death duel, there is no room for mistakes. This is completely different from usual practice and sparring.

"Hinata, that's enough, let me do it!"

Uzumaki Naruto struggled to stand up and was about to go forward to help, but he was unsteady on his feet. If he wanted to be of any use in front of Hyuga Hizashi who had no emotions or sympathy, the Nine-Tails would have to show mercy and help him. But now, Naruto, who had not yet reconciled with the Nine-Tails, obviously did not have such a big face.

"I can hold on a little longer."

Hinata waved her arms in vain, unable to withstand the soft fist that was much more powerful than her own. The gap in strength could not be made up by enthusiasm alone.

Mustering up her last bit of courage, Hyuga Hinata braced herself and stepped forward again.

"Soft Steps·Double Lion Fist!"

The only soft boxing method that she created was the essence of Hinata Hyuga's long-term practice. It was used in actual combat for the first time in such a desperate situation.

He rushed forward, swung his left fist, and forced Hizashi Hinata back with a huge fist of condensed chakra. Then he turned around, avoided the enemy's counterattack, and in the nick of time, he hit Hizashi Hinata's Impure World Body in the chest. The huge force directly knocked Hizashi Hinata back.

If it were an ordinary ninja, he would have lost half his life if he didn't die, but Hyuga Hizashi's Impure World Form adjusted its posture in mid-air, and a soft fist technique, Eight Trigrams Empty Palm, directly hit Hyuga Hinata who was lying sideways, knocking her flying and knocking down Uzumaki Naruto, and then rolling into a ball.

The two guys who shared the same pain seemed to be helpless. Uzumaki Naruto, who had excellent physical fitness, remained conscious, while Hyuga Hinata, who was covered in blood, had fainted, both because of severe injuries and exhaustion.

"Hinata, are you okay?"

Looking at Hyuga Hinata who was motionless and seemed to be dying, Uzumaki Naruto suddenly became confused.

When was the first time you saw a companion die in front of you?

Three years ago, during the Konoha collapse plan, there was a big battle with Gaara, and no one around was affected at all.

Even when the beloved Sandaime Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen died in battle, we heard about it from other people after he woke up from being seriously injured.

When traveling with Jiraiya, there were very few opportunities for actual combat.

It was not until recently that he first came to prominence in a major battle with the Akatsuki organization.

However, he did not perform well that time, and the Nine-Tailed Fox lost control halfway through, and fainted after being subdued.

Before today, Naruto had never truly experienced the tragedy of a companion dying in front of him.

And now, it is the first time that I understand this heart-wrenching feeling.

Involuntarily, ominous red chakra surged out of his body, and his pair of azure blue eyes gradually turned red, and golden vertical pupils appeared.

It took a while for the Impure World Form of Hinata Hizashi, who was hit just now, to fully recover, and then he stepped forward again, trying to capture the two people who seemed to have lost the ability to resist.

Feeling the strange chakra on Uzumaki Naruto, Hyuga Hizashi's Impure World Body couldn't help but pause.

At this moment, an inexplicable wave came, and Hinata Hizashi's Impure World Form retreated rapidly as if expected.

At the critical moment, Mizuki finally managed to avoid the Flying Thunder God mark set on Uzumaki Naruto and arrived using space-time ninjutsu.

"It's only been a short while, and it's already this miserable?"

Mizuki reached out and patted Uzumaki Naruto's shoulder, signaling him not to get excited, then pressed Naruto's abdomen with his other hand to temporarily reinforce the seal to prevent the Nine-Tails' chakra from leaking out.

"Teacher Mizuki, why are you here just now? Hinata..."

Naruto was crying and snotting, and he could hardly speak clearly.

"You're too dirty, don't rub against me."

Mizuki comforted helplessly.

"You blame me for your incompetence and causing harm to your companions?"

"I don't want to, but I can't move..."

"Okay, stop crying, Hinata is not dead... Wait a moment, I'll take care of it..."

As he said this, Mizuki looked up at Hinata Hizashi's Impure Earth Body.

Suddenly a coffin appeared out of nowhere and wrapped Hinata Hizashi inside.

"How decisive! They retreated immediately when things became hopeless. They were probably afraid that I would take away the materials for the Impure World Reincarnation again!"

Shuimu casually punched out with a giant fist of natural energy, hitting the thick coffin lid with a loud noise.

"It really didn't work."

The material of the special Impure World Reincarnation container itself is extremely difficult to break, and it is also protected by the power of the forbidden technique, Impure World Reincarnation rules. It is not easy to destroy it without some effort.

…

Just as two flares were launched into the sky one after another, Karin, who was specially instructed by Mizuki to act alone and secretly, was walking in a bush holding a portable chakra-hiding barrier prop specially made by Mizuki.

"This isn't the right place either. Looks like we need to find another one."

Kagura's Mind's Eye is not just a chakra sensing secret technique. The corresponding strong luck of seeking benefits and avoiding harm is the most effective means. Otherwise, with so many ninjas who are good at tracking here, why would Mizuki bring Karin with him?
