The Hand of God Creates the Strongest Hidden Mist Village

Chapter 13 Kakashi Hatake VS Full Moon Hozuki!

White Fang Short Sword!

Hozuki Mangetsu's eyes suddenly sharpened as he stared intently at the uniquely shaped white short blade in Kakashi's hand.

This sword has left a fearsome reputation on the battlefield of the ninja world. Many of the elders of Kirigakure have a deep impression of it and even feel fear towards it.

As someone obsessed with swordsmanship, especially fond of collecting and studying famous swords, he naturally recognized at a glance this legendary blade forged from a special chakra metal, incomparably sharp, and wielded by Konoha's White Fang to slay countless powerful enemies!

"I never expected to encounter the legendary White Fang Dagger here..."

Hozuki Mangetsu licked his sharp teeth, his eyes flashing with an unprecedentedly intense light.

For him, nothing could ignite his fighting spirit and collecting obsession more than a peerless sword!

Although four of the Seven Ninja Swords are currently unclaimed, he is still young. Even if he has a chance to acquire one through the clan's connections, it will still require time and opportunity, and it's not a solution for his immediate needs.

But the White Fang Short Sword in front of them is a legendary trophy that is within easy reach!

"Looks like I'm having a lucky day."

Hozuki Mangetsu's smile grew increasingly dangerous, and his chakra began to surge: "Defeat you, and this sword will be mine!"

Kakashi's eyes were icy cold as his Sharingan with two tomoe slowly rotated, locking firmly onto Hozuki Mangetsu.

He could sense the intense fighting spirit and killing intent emanating from the other person, which was even more dangerous than before.

"It is said that Konoha's White Fang is unparalleled in swordsmanship, and his son must have inherited his true skills."

Hozuki Mangetsu held his ordinary ninja sword horizontally in front of him, assuming a peculiar starting stance: "Let me, Hozuki Mangetsu, see if your White Fang is sharper, or if I am superior!"

Kakashi didn't say much, but simply held the White Fang short sword horizontally in front of him.

He felt more pain and disappointment towards his father.

However, this was not the time to consider the father-son relationship. The fact that the other party had introduced himself and his powerful background had already made Kakashi feel intimidated.

Hozuki Full Moon!

The Kirigakure Hozuki clan!

The Hozuki clan in Kirigakure is almost equivalent to the Senju Uchiha clan in Konoha. They are one of the most elite and powerful ninja clans in Kirigakure, and their water transformation techniques and swordsmanship are extremely difficult to deal with.

Although the boy in front of me was about the same age, the power and skill of his strike just now were not to be underestimated!

Kakashi didn't answer, but simply held the White Fang short sword horizontally in front of him, his Sharingan with two tomoe firmly locking onto every subtle movement of his opponent. He couldn't waste time here; Rin was in the warehouse not far away, and the increasingly violent chakra fluctuations made him extremely anxious.

"Not going to talk? Then let's communicate with knives!"

Hozuki Mangetsu grinned, his shark teeth gleaming coldly in the sunlight. He moved.

It's faster than before!

His figure left a faint afterimage, and his ninja sword, whistling through the air, aimed straight for Kakashi's face. Even before the blade arrived, a chilling killing intent already assaulted the senses.

"So fast!"

Kakashi's Sharingan spun rapidly, catching the path of the blade, and his White Fang short sword slashed upwards at an angle.

"clang!"

Another loud bang. Kakashi's arm went slightly numb, but his body remained as steady as a rock.

Hozuki Mangetsu's swordsmanship is sharp and swift, with tricky angles. Every strike is aimed straight for vital points, carrying a ruthless force, clearly honed through countless real battles.

"Water Gun!"

After exchanging blows for several rounds, Hozuki Mangetsu suddenly used the momentum to retreat, shooting a high-pressure water bullet from his fingertip straight at Kakashi's chest.

The distance was extremely close, making avoidance almost impossible.

Kakashi's pupils contracted as he used the Sharingan's perception to anticipate his opponent and, at the critical moment, twisted his body to the side to dodge.

The high-pressure water bomb grazed past my ribs, tore my clothes, and blasted a crater the size of a bowl into the stone wall behind me.

"That's a really fast reaction. No wonder it's Sharingan."

Hozuki Mangetsu gave a thumbs-up, but his offensive continued unabated.

"Water Release: Water Jet!"

He formed a hand seal with one hand and spat out countless fine, high-pressure water droplets like shotgun pellets, covering a vast area and sealing off Kakashi's space to dodge left and right.

Instead of retreating, Kakashi advanced, crouching low and charging forward like a cheetah. His White Fang short sword danced in front of him, shattering or deflecting all the water droplets that were aimed at his vital points.

Water droplets tinkled as they hit the blade, leaving several small bloody scratches on his body, but they could not stop his momentum.

"bring it on!"

Hozuki Mangetsu's eyes flashed with a sharp light. Instead of retreating, he advanced, slashing upwards at Kakashi's blade!

"clang!"

The two swords clashed again, this time both of them using their full strength.

Kakashi's White Fang sword technique is inherited from his father, following a simple, sharp, and fatal approach.

This sword technique, combined with the Sharingan's insightful vision, makes the sword light as fast as lightning, allowing Kakashi to attack Hozuki Mangetsu's vitals from unbelievable angles time and again.

Hozuki Mangetsu's sword technique combines the secrets of the Hozuki clan with water-style transformations. His sword strikes are sometimes as heavy as a mountain, and sometimes as light as mist, making them unpredictable and cunning.

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

Swords clashed, sparks flew, and water splashed everywhere.

The two figures moved at high speed in the open space outside the warehouse, colliding, separating, and colliding again.

The ground was covered with knife marks and water stains, and the surrounding walls and debris were also left in a mess by the dissipated knife energy and water escape.

Kakashi grew increasingly alarmed as the fight progressed.

Despite his young age, Hozuki Mangetsu possesses astonishingly high swordsmanship skills, and his understanding and application of the sword subtly reveals the demeanor of a master!

Hozuki Mangetsu gets more and more excited as the fight goes on.

The White Fang Short Sword lived up to its reputation, being exceptionally sharp. After several direct clashes with his ninja sword, it even gained a slight advantage, leaving several tiny nicks on his beloved sword.

Kakashi's swordsmanship was indeed superb, and the Sharingan made him even more formidable. This battle made his blood feel like it was boiling!

"That was exhilarating! This is a true duel!"

Hozuki Mangetsu forced Kakashi back with a single slash, then caught his breath, his face flushed with excitement: "However, if that's all there is to it, then the White Fang short sword will change hands today!"

As he circulated his chakra, his injuries began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The Secret Technique of Water Transformation!

The Hozuki clan's water-based secret technique grants them extremely strong regenerative abilities, and even physical immunity.

The Second Mizukage relied on his Water Transformation Technique to make Iwagakure unable to raise its head. In the end, he even fused the Water Transformation Technique with Yin Release Chakra to create the legendary Infinite Explosion Technique, Steam Explosion!

Seeing this, Kakashi's expression grew even more serious.

The opponent possesses superb swordsmanship, swift water-based abilities, and a troublesome water-transformation technique, along with strong regenerative capabilities.

If it weren't for his Lightning Release chakra which limited his opponent to some extent, he would probably still be unharmed by now.

Looking back at myself...

After a long and arduous journey, they had reached their physical and other limits.

Most importantly.

The chakra depletion is a bit too severe!
