Chapter 196 - Chapter 196: The Power of a Single Strike

Inside a Konoha encampment, in Tianyuan's tent.

"Kushina, I need to rest a bit. Destroying the Hidden Mist Village alone is quite tiring, and they even set up a barrier; I almost couldn't make it back," Tianyuan said.

Of course, Tianyuan was speaking nonsense.

Tianyuan had completely overwhelmed the Hidden Mist Village from start to finish.

Although it was partly due to the Hidden Mist ninja's unpreparedness, it was mostly because Tianyuan's strength was far too terrifying.

"Is that so? You don't look like it," Uzumaki Kushina scrutinizingly looked Tianyuan up and down.

"I'm just good at hiding it," Tianyuan shrugged.

"Always talking nonsense with your eyes wide open," Uzumaki Kushina glanced at Tianyuan. As Tianyuan's vice-captain, Uzumaki Kushina knew Tianyuan's personality.

Sometimes, Tianyuan's personality was a bit of a jokester.

"But, is everything really alright?" Uzumaki Kushina finally revealed her concern.

"Don't worry, nothing's wrong," Tianyuan shook his head. This Kushina was sometimes soft-hearted despite her tough words.

"Then you should rest well. And don't take such risks so casually in the future," Uzumaki Kushina said.

"Don't worry, my dear vice-captain," Tianyuan chuckled.

"Then get some rest soon." Uzumaki Kushina finally left the tent; she wanted Tianyuan to get some good rest.

After Kushina left, Tianyuan actually went straight to rest.

To be honest, the use of Ryūjin Jakka indeed consumed a lot of Tianyuan's spiritual power. Of course, the most important reason for this was Tianyuan's use of Bankai: Zanka no Tachi.

Otherwise, in Shikai state, the strain on Tianyuan wouldn't have been like this.

Several hours after Tianyuan annihilated the Hidden Mist Village.

At the Hidden Mist Village encampment, in the usual meeting place for Hidden Mist higher-ups.

Some of the Hidden Mist higher-ups cautiously watched the Fourth Mizukage. They didn't know what had happened to make the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura, like this.

"Hmph." The Fourth Mizukage exhaled, his face grim as he looked at the Hidden Mist ninja. "Just now, I received a message from the Hidden Mist Village."

"A message from the Hidden Mist Village?" This puzzled the Hidden Mist ninja.

What could possibly happen to their Hidden Mist Village?

They thought Konoha attacking the Hidden Mist Village was impossible. After all, Konoha was currently fighting on four fronts. If they still had such strength, it would be extraordinary.

As for other ninja villages, it was also impossible, as they were in a standoff with Konoha.

More importantly, the Land of Water was surrounded by sea on all four sides. The difficulty of attacking this country was even greater than attacking the other Four Great Nations on the ninja continent.

This was because all supplies also had to be transported by sea.

In the Ninja World, such a feat was extremely difficult.

So, even if many Hidden Mist ninja had gone to attack Konoha, these Hidden Mist ninja were very confident in their main base, especially since there were many Hidden Mist ninja in the main base, enough to defend the area.

Seeing the Hidden Mist ninja's reactions, Yagura knew that they probably couldn't fathom what he was about to say.

"Then I'll just say it directly: Tianyuan came to the Hidden Mist Village," the Fourth Mizukage said.

"Tianyuan came to the Hidden Mist Village." The Hidden Mist ninja present were shocked.

Regarding Tianyuan's strength, the Hidden Mist ninja on this battlefield knew that he was a powerful ninja possessing both Mangekyo Sharingan and Wood Release.

When Tianyuan's Susanoo fought an unknown enemy previously, the Hidden Mist ninja realized how terrifying the power of the Mangekyo Sharingan was.

Afterward, they naturally investigated that area, but they found nothing. They could only see the ruins formed after a terrifying battle.

Trees, mountains, and the earth were all unrecognizable.

Not to mention, the hope of finding any surviving Hidden Mist ninja was even slimmer.

So, many of the Hidden Mist ninja here were actually a bit worried that Tianyuan would forcefully attack here with the same power.

However, seeing that Tianyuan did not immediately attack afterward, they had some guesses: perhaps Tianyuan's power could not be used frequently.

Of course, if it was the Mangekyo Sharingan, the power of Susanoo indeed could not be used frequently, as it would cause damage to the Mangekyo Sharingan.

And Tianyuan had no intention of always using such power to resolve battles.

Currently, in the Ninja World, Tianyuan knew there were still many things he wanted to obtain.

If he scared all his enemies to death at once, how would he acquire various things? This time, if he hadn't been able to get a Blu-ray video by destroying the Hidden Mist Village, Tianyuan wouldn't have done it.

On the other hand, even with these powers, it would be very difficult to completely wipe out all the Hidden Mist ninja.

If he really did that, it would probably lead to the full combined strength of the Four Great Ninja Villages uniting to kill Tianyuan.

Currently, Tianyuan had not considered doing such a thing to the entire Ninja World's power.

So, the ultimate situation was that while everyone feared Tianyuan's strength, they weren't particularly terrified. But now, the Fourth Mizukage had spoken about Tianyuan.

Tianyuan had even gone to the Hidden Mist Village.

This Konoha genius going to the Hidden Mist Village certainly wasn't for anything good. Could Tianyuan have used Wood Release or Mangekyo Sharingan to destroy the Hidden Mist Village?

"I think most of you present already know what happened," Yagura slowly said. "That's right, Tianyuan attacked the Hidden Mist Village alone."

"And this time, our Hidden Mist Village suffered heavy losses under Tianyuan's attack, with at least ten thousand people dead," Yagura said. "The specific detailed numbers have not yet been confirmed, but it's safe to say that this time, our Hidden Mist Village has lost."

"How could that be?" one of the Hidden Mist ninja said. "Even if that Tianyuan used Wood Release or Mangekyo Sharingan, he couldn't have achieved such a degree."

Ten thousand deaths that was an enormous number of casualties.

It was large enough to drastically reduce the Hidden Mist Village's strength.

"That Tianyuan didn't use Wood Release ninjutsu or Mangekyo Sharingan power at all," the Fourth Mizukage Yagura said. "It is said that he used Fire Release power."

"A single strike directly produced dozens of sky-piercing fire pillars, destroying the Hidden Mist Village."

"A single strike directly slew the manifested body of a Tailed Beast."

"A single strike turned the body of Hozuki Shingetsu of the Hozuki clan directly into nothingness."

"A single strike gave birth to endless hordes of the dead."
