Naruto: Rise To The Top
The death of Hanzo

Currently Hanzo had been captured by the Four Purple Flame Formation and was unable to come out.

Also, Ryuu protected Tsunade so that Tsunade could try to enter Sage Mode without worry.

"So how did we get here?" Since he didn't need to do anything and had enough free time, Hikari asked a question that confused him to Ryuu.

"This is very simple, all I did was use the Flying Lightning God Technique to teleport here." Ryuu only answered Hikari's question.

Before the Flying Lightning God Technique could be performed, the user had to first mark the target with their "technique formula. This formula is applied after a mere touch and cannot be removed; it will remain in place even after the user dies and there is no limit to how many targets can be marked with the technique formula.

By entering the dimensional void, users could instantly teleport to the location of the technique formula whenever they wanted, regardless of distance.

This meant Ryuu placed the formula on Tsunade, and was able to move into her position because of it.

Also, Ryuu had laid formulas everywhere in the Rain Land so that he could teleport whenever he wanted and wherever he wanted.

"Isn't the Flying Lightning God Technique a space-time ninjutsu created by Second Hokage Tobirama Senju? I have heard that many people have tried to learn it but all have failed." Hikari looked at Ryuu in awe, Ryuu is still young but he has learned such a difficult technique that it would be strange not to see him like that.

A few minutes passed quickly as Ryuu spoke to Hikari, during which time Tsunade managed to enter sage mode.

Tsunade's eyes turned blue, with deep blue pigmentation around her eyes that extended into her ears.

Tsunade smiled and looked at Ryuu, "Ryuu, take me into the Four Purple Flames Formation."

"It's time to beat Hanzo to death." Ryuu smiled and reached out and grabbed onto Tsunade's shoulder and in an instant they were transferred into the Four Purple Flames Formation.

As soon as they entered, Hanzo noticed this and looked at Tsunade and Ryuu unhappily, "I wonder when you will come here to meet your death, it's good that you came so quickly."

Hanzo was very upset that Ryuu kept him in the Four Purple Flames Formation.

He tried to come out more than once and tried to destroy the formation, but he could not, and all of his attempts failed.

Previously, anger raged within Hanzo, but after a while his anger subsided as he thought, 'Does he think he can keep me here forever? After the chakra of his clone is exhausted, the Four Purple Flames Formation will disappear and when I come out, I will kill them.'

But now he didn't need to wait for Ryuu's clone chakra to run out because Tsunade and Ryuu have entered the Four Purple Flames Formation, meaning they have brought themselves to destruction, Hanzo believed.

As Hanzo looked at them unhappily, Tsunade spoke to Ryuu, "Don't interfere in the fight, I'll fight it alone and defeat it."

"Okay, he's your opponent. I won't intervene unless you're in danger." Ryuu retreated and made room for Tsunade and Hanzo to fight each other.

Ryuu looked at Tsunade's stats and smiled, now that he really has the power to fight Hanzo.

Before he used Sage Mode, Tsunade's stats were like this.

[Name: Tsunade Senju

STR\= Kage (Low) \= 147

AGI\= Kage (Low) \= 112

Chakra \= Super Kage \= 6,958]

And his stats became like this after using Sage Mode.

[Name: Tsunade Senju

STR\= Kage (Middle) \= 184

AGI\= Kage (Low) \= 140

Chakra \= Super Kage \= 6,958]

And Hanzo stats are like this

[Name: Hanzo

STR\= Kage (Middle) \= 179

Cakra \= Kage \= 3,374]

So after Tsunade used ascetic Mode, she surpassed Hanzo in terms of strength and amount of chakra, but Hanzo still had higher speed and agility.

Tsunade moved towards Hanzo and as she approached him, she sent a punch across his face.

Hanzo dodged the attack by tilting his head to the side, then he grabbed Kusarigama tightly and swung it towards Tsunade to try to cut her off.

(A kusarigama is a weapon consisting of a scythe tied to a chain.)

Tsunade uses her elbow with Enhanced Power of Chakra to hit the Hanzo kusarigama.

The one-meter-long Kusarigama that looked sturdy and strong was completely destroyed by Tsunade's attack, currently Hanzo used the Body Flicker Technique to immediately move away from Tsunade.

The Chakra Strength Enhancement Technique became stronger after Tsunade entered the ascetic Mode, and Ryuu was sure that if he fought with her, he would have the ability to destroy Susanoo's defenses if he used all of his strength.

From this, Ryuu learned that by using techniques, one's natural strength level could be greatly surpassed.

This meant that even though Tsunade's strength seemed to be only 184 in stats, Tsunade's offensive power far exceeded this number.

If Tsunade punched Ryuu with all her might, she would not come out unscathed even if she used all her strength not to mention Hanzo who was weaker than Ryuu.

This meant that this fight would end if Hanzo got one hit from Tsunade.

After that, the fight between Tsunade and Hanzo continued, but Hanzo made a certain distance between him and Tsunade. As long as Tsunade approached, Hanzo would retreat while using long-range attacks.

He was no fool for making Tsunade close to him after seeing his abilities.

The battle went on like this, Tsunade chased after Hanzo while Hanzo retreated and used a long-range attack.

Hanzo of Salamander who earned the title of demigod deserves this title because of his own strength, Hanzo believes that in this world he is only under Hashirama Senju and Uchiha Madara. But now this strong man was afraid of being attacked despite just one attack from Tsunade.

"Look at yourself, you are a man but you are afraid of a taijutsu fight with a woman. If you're a man, come and fight me closely." Tsunade taunted Hanzo, making him feel annoyed.

"I'm sorry but I don't see you as a woman, all I see is a raging gorilla." Hanzo smiled as he looked at Tsunade and likened her to a gorilla.

"Hanzo, it looks like you want to die quickly so I'll gladly do it for you." The fact that Hanzo called him a gorilla in front of Ryuu made Tsunade very angry.

Tsunade applied the Chakra Enhanced Strength to the soles of her feet and stomped the ground hard.

The ground under Tsunade's feet and the surrounding area was completely destroyed, but Tsunade disappeared from her place and appeared in front of Hanzo very quickly.

Tsunade was usually less fast but she thought of using the Chakra Strength Enhancement Technique on her legs and then using the Blinking Body Technique, and she made her own new technique.

Tsunade hid this trump well, and was waiting for the right opportunity to use it against Hanzo.

Hanzo could not dodge the attack so he tightly grabbed the remaining part of Kusarigama and swung it into Tsunade's stomach to try to sever it.

Tsunade did not avoid this attack even though she knew that she would be severely injured if the attack hit her.

Tsunade's stomach split apart but Tsunade sent a powerful blow to Hanzo's chest, Hanzo's body flying like a missile and his body smashing into the wall of the Four Purple Flames Formation.

All the bones in Hanzo's body were shattered by a single blow, Hanzo lying dead.

Ryuu quickly approached Tsunade with anxiety covering his face, but Tsunade smiled at him, "I'm fine, this wound will heal in a moment."

The huge wound that was on Tsunade's stomach started to spurt white steam as she recovered quickly and the naked eye could see it.

This is not caused by the Rebirth Creation Technique and not by the Ninja Art Creation Rebirth — Hundred Powers Techniques but rather features the Shikkotsu Forest Recreation Mode which uses natural energy to heal wounds.

If Hanzo knew that Tsunade had such a trick, he wouldn't have died so soon.

By the time he attacked Tsunade, he thought he would dodge the attack and stay away from her and he did not expect that she would receive his attack directly.

This is the advantage of hiding the trump card from the opponent.
