Chapter 97: I'll Strip His Armor Off!
Minato Namikaze threw three Flying Thunder God Kunai at Han.
The three kunai shot towards Han from the left, right, and front.
"Left? Right? Or the front?"
Han was pondering from which Flying Thunder God Kunai Minato Namikaze would appear.
But Han soon stopped thinking about it.
Because Minato Namikaze would definitely appear from one of these three kunai.
Since it was already certain, there was no need to guess from which kunai Minato Namikaze would appear.
Han planned to push his Speed to the limit and kill Minato Namikaze with one blow no matter where he appeared.
Minato Namikaze used the Flying Thunder God Technique.
The moment he saw that flash of yellow appear on the left.
"Boil Release: Superhuman Strength!"
Han instantly raised his chakra to its boiling point, causing his whole - body Strength to surge in an instant. He punched Minato Namikaze.
But when it came to competing with Minato Namikaze in Speed, Han was like trying to race against the Flash.
Just as Han was about to punch Minato Namikaze, at that Setsuna, Minato Namikaze used the Flying Thunder God Technique again and teleported to the position of the Flying Thunder God Kunai on the right, leaving Han's punch missed the mark.
Han also had a good reaction speed. He immediately spun around and landed a roundhouse kick at Minato Namikaze.
And Minato Namikaze used the Flying Thunder God Technique again and teleported to the position of the Flying Thunder God Kunai right in front.
At the same time, Minato Namikaze threw the Iron Sand ball given to him by Kamishiro onto Han's Steam Armour.
The Iron Sand ball immediately scattered into Iron Sand and adhered to the armor.
Then Minato Namikaze used the Flying Thunder God Technique again to put some distance between him and Han.
Han ignored the Iron Sand and eyed Minato Namikaze warily.
Han snorted and said, "You're as slippery as an eel. Do you ninja from Konoha only know how to run?"
Minato Namikaze said in the gentlest tone, "Then can you take off your armor?"
The corners of Han's mouth under his metal mask twitched.
Without this armor and without borrowing the Strength of the tailed beasts, he might really not be Minato Namikaze's match.
There was no way, he just couldn't hit Minato Namikaze.
"Kamishiro!"
Minato Namikaze called out to Kamishiro.
"Kamishiro, come on, come on! Teacher Minato is calling you!"
Obito Uchiha excitedly shook Kamishiro's arm.
Kamishiro said with a dark face, "Stop shaking! I'm not deaf! You're really bothering me! Kakashi, hold him down!"
Kakashi actually listened to Kamishiro for the first time and firmly held down Obito Uchiha to prevent him from disturbing Kamishiro.
Kamishiro concentrated on controlling the Iron Sand on Han's Steam Armour. The Iron Sand penetrated into the armor through the holes and gaps.
The mechanisms inside Han's Steam Armour were highly sophisticated, enabling him to fully unleash his Boil Release ability.
What Kamishiro needed to do now was to use Iron Sand to damage the delicate parts inside the Steam Armour and then block all the holes.
Soon, Kamishiro finished what he had to do.
Kamishiro sneered and said, "Alright, now it's going to get interesting!"
Hearing Kamishiro say that, Kakashi, Obito Uchiha, and Rin Nohara all looked towards Han in the distance at the same time.
Minato Namikaze was ready to fight Han again.
After all, Kamishiro's method was just a try. Minato Namikaze couldn't entirely rely on Kamishiro's Iron Sand.
When Han saw that Minato Namikaze only threw one Flying Thunder God Kunai this time, his eyes lit up instantly.
It would be easier to deal with just one Flying Thunder God Kunai.
However, Han ignored the three Flying Thunder God Kunai that had fallen beside him just now.
Thinking that the opportunity had come, Han used Boil Release: Superhuman Strength again and raised his chakra to the boiling point all at once.
The moment Han activated his Steam Armour with Boil Release, he suddenly felt something was wrong.
Because Han heard the sounds of 'clicks and bangs' coming from the Steam Armour on his body, and the expected steam didn't appear.
Han's expression suddenly changed drastically. The 'clicks and bangs' were the sounds of the parts of his Steam Armour cracking.
"Damn it!"
Feeling the temperature on his body rising rapidly, Han wanted to stop his jutsu, but it was too late.
The holes of the Steam Armour were blocked by Kamishiro's Iron Sand, and the steam couldn't get out. If this continued...
Before Minato Namikaze could use the Flying Thunder God Technique to attack Han, suddenly, there was a loud 'bang'.
Han exploded right on the spot.
The explosion sent out a wave of scorching heat.
Minato Namikaze stared at Han who exploded on the spot in disbelief.
He originally thought that Kamishiro's method could only make Han's Steam Armour ineffective, but he didn't expect it to make Han explode directly.
Jiraiya and Rōshi stopped their hands simultaneously and looked towards Han's direction.
They saw the fragments of the Steam Armour scattered everywhere. Han was naked, with large areas of burns on his body, looking beyond recognition.
Kamishiro's grin almost reached his ears.
So cool!
After Kamishiro coughed, he said coolly, "I'm gonna strip him of his pride!"
Minato Namikaze wanted to seize the opportunity to kill Han directly.
Suddenly, a powerful tailed beast's chakra burst out from Han's body. His body was covered with dark red tailed beast's chakra, and two tails appeared behind him, and the number of tails was still increasing.
Rōshi frowned and asked, "Hey, Han, are you gonna go for Host Transformation?"
Han roared hoarsely and angrily, "I'm going to kill them!"
"Got it. Then let's wrap this fight up right now."
Rōshi distanced himself from Jiraiya and came to Han's side.
Rōshi's tailed beast's chakra also visibly gushed out. His body was covered in dark red tailed beast's chakra, and the number of tails behind him increased.
This powerful and ominous chakra made Minato Namikaze and Jiraiya look grave.
Meanwhile, Kamishiro, Kakashi, Obito Uchiha, and Rin Nohara began to tremble all over.
Han and Rōshi, who were already in a half - Host Transformation state and only vaguely resembled human forms, hadn't finished transforming. The tailed beast's chakra on both of them became more massive.
When two colossal beasts appeared in front of everyone, all those present were extremely shocked.
Kamishiro looked at Rōshi and Han in disbelief. Were these two guys... perfect jinchuriki?
At this time, Han and Rōshi had completed their Host Transformation and turned into The fourth tailed beast and Kokuō respectively.
Han and Rōshi had undergone hard cultivation to be able to skillfully control the Strength of their respective tailed beasts. They wouldn't lose their self - awareness even when in the Host Transformation state.
At the same time, two Tailed Beast Balls were condensing in the mouths of The fourth tailed beast and Kokuō.
Jiraiya said seriously, "Minato, it's Tailed Beast Balls! Let's fall back for now!"
"Yes!"
Minato Namikaze reached out and put his hand on Jiraiya, then used the Flying Thunder God Technique to come to the side of Kamishiro and the other three.
Without Minato Namikaze saying a word, Kamishiro and the other three immediately placed their hands on Minato Namikaze.
Minato Namikaze used the Flying Thunder God Technique again and directly left the battlefield.
On the battlefield, the two Tailed Beast Balls exploded, creating an Earth - Shattering explosion.
Even though they were already far away from the battlefield, the aftershock of the explosion almost blew Kamishiro and the others away.
Minato Namikaze looked deeply at the explosion on the battlefield, frowned tightly, and murmured, "Is that the Strength of the tailed beasts..."
Minato Namikaze thought of Kushina Uzumaki.
That kind of thing also existed within her body...
