Yi Shuihan's words were unexpected by everyone. Even though he had just defeated the Third Raikage, his words still sounded somewhat arrogant.

Onoki and the Third Kazekage both turned grim, while the Third Raikage remained much calmer, even harboring a hint of anticipation. He hoped that Onoki and the Third Kazekage, both village kage, would also be defeated by Yi Shuihan, which would lessen his pressure considerably.

"Boss, you're not serious, are you?" Matt Day asked in astonishment.

"I think he's serious, both in his eyes and his movements," Hatake Sakumo said with a strange look in his eyes.

"Hey!" Tsunade shouted loudly, her expression seemingly extremely angry.

Just when everyone thought she was going to stop the fight, she said, "Can't you leave one for me?"

"...Will...you...leave...one...for...me...?"

The sound echoed in the hot spring area. Even Yi Shuihan was amused by Tsunade's words. So she wasn't there to stop him, but rather because she didn't have a chance to make a move?

"Even if you are Tsunade, one of the Legendary Sannin, and a descendant of the Senju clan, you are still too arrogant. Who do you think we are? We are Kage! We are on par with your Konoha Hokage." Onoki said, a smug look unconsciously appearing on his face. "If you want to challenge us, wait until you become Hokage!"

This is to say that Tsunade is not qualified to fight them!

Tsunade's face changed, and the surrounding air became heavy, as if something terrifying was about to appear.

"Tsunade, leave this to me."

Yi Shuihan suddenly spoke up. Normally, he wouldn't mind letting Tsunade unleash her power, but since it concerned the mission, he could only ask Tsunade to make do for now.

Seeing Tsunade's gaze fall upon him, Yi Shuihan could only grit his teeth and say, "The ones who are unqualified are actually them. As your man, I will make them realize all of this."

"He...he's not my man!"

Sweet words have a powerful impact, instantly changing Tsunade's demeanor.

"So that's the kind of relationship they have. No wonder Tsunade is here." The three Kage, who were unaware of the relationship between Yi Shuihan and Tsunade, were all shocked. Onoki even had a strong sense of foreboding.

"So, have you decided? Let's go together." Yi Shuihan looked at Onoki and Kazekage, but he didn't intend to continue the fight by defeating the Third Raikage. He decided to try his luck with the item he got from the lottery when he arrived in this world.

It's time for the Formless Rebirth to make its appearance; it would be a huge waste to draw it and leave it there unused.

Well, it might be a waste of talent to use it in the current situation.

"I have no such intention. What do you think, Lord Kazekage?"

Onoki refused, but at the same time wanted to bring the seal to his side.

Compared to Onoki, perhaps among the three Kage, the Kazekage is the one who understands Yi Shuihan the most. Because of Chiyo, Chiyo was defeated by Yi Shuihan and naturally told the seal about Yi Shuihan when she escaped back. Moreover, when Yi Shuihan fought the Raikage before, the fighting style he used was similar to what Chiyo described, which was enough for the Kazekage to recognize him.

To fight a powerful figure who could easily defeat Chiyo and had previously defeated the Third Raikage, the Kazekage was certainly extremely unwilling. Therefore, Onoki's words were exactly what he was thinking, and he said something to appease Onoki.

"If you win, I will give you the training methods for the national martial arts. Not only that, I will also give you 1 billion gold."

"The training methods behind traditional Chinese martial arts, plus a billion gold."

If the first offer was enough to attract Onoki and the Third Kazekage, then the 1 billion gold was the final straw that broke the camel's back, completely tempting them.

They weren't worried at all about whether Yi Shuihan was lying, because as Shadows, they could tell whether a powerful person like Yi Shuihan was lying or not.

"Alright! I'll grant your request."

The Third Kazekage changed his attitude; even if he failed, the only loss would be his reputation, which was entirely worthwhile.

Chapter 339, Useless Bloodstains Elimination

"I suddenly feel that it's quite nice to have a fight once in a while. I haven't had a fight in a long time since I became the Tsuchikage, so I'll make an exception and fight you today."

Onoki has an extremely thick skin, or rather, if he didn't have such a thick skin, he wouldn't be qualified to be a Kage.

Neither Onoki nor Kazekage spoke again. Instead, they stood together, as if their auras had instantly connected.

Their teamwork was much better than that of other members of the same squad. With Yi Shuihan's keen eyesight, he could naturally see that the two of them were positioned so that if either of them was in danger, the other could provide support at any time.

"I must say, he truly lives up to his reputation as the shadow of the village."

Yi Shuihan wasn't surprised. If they couldn't do that, he would have wondered how the two of them became shadows.

"Then let's begin." With a thought, Yi Shuihan instantly entered the state of formless rebirth.

In a daze, as if his soul had left his body, Yi Shuihan instantly transcended his own body and entered God-controlled mode.

Everything in reality seems to become unimportant; time slows down, even almost stops, while space can be cleaved with a thought.

The Formless Reincarnation technique, to put it simply, is like Naruto activating Six Paths Mode. His strength hasn't increased, but his combat power has skyrocketed.

To others, Yi Shuihan seemed to have vanished completely; his presence and even his very existence could not be detected.

Everything in the world has an aura. As long as it has a form, even chakra has a unique aura. People, animals, and even plants, and the clouds in the sky, all have their own aura.

Of course, ordinary people cannot sense all of this. Even ninjas with sensory abilities can only sense the aura of chakra.

But when you're this close, no one can hide their presence; there's always a sense of their presence.

However, Yi Shuihan has now defied this common sense. Even when they see Yi Shuihan, they cannot sense his presence at all, as if Yi Shuihan does not exist.

Moreover, the memory of Yi Shuihan himself is gradually fading, leaving only a shadow.

"Huh? What are we doing?"

Onoki said blankly.

"What's going on? Just now, my aura was connected with his. And how did I get here? Right, I remember I came here for the matter of Chinese martial arts. Chinese martial arts is... the owner of Chinese martial arts is... is..."

Feng Ying murmured to himself, realizing that Yi Shuihan was completely absent from his memory. He only knew that such a person existed, but had no recollection of him whatsoever.

"No, there's something important I don't want to forget." Tsunade clutched her head in pain, but her resistance was stronger because she was far more powerful than the Kazekage and Tsuchikage.

"What's wrong? Aren't you going to attack?"

A cold, emotionless voice rang out. It came from Yi Shuihan in the air. His eyes were indifferent, as if he had lost all emotions.

As soon as he spoke, everyone instantly realized Yi Shuihan's presence and stared at him in shock.

This thing? This feeling, how is this possible? What kind of technique is this? Could it be an illusion? But even the legendary Kaleidoscope couldn't be this powerful!

Onoki screamed inwardly, his whole body tensed, and he floated in the air, radiating an extremely terrifying chakra fluctuation.

"What's going on here?"

"Is the battle with the Raikage over? What's the current situation?"

At this moment, the three generations of the group finally arrived at the scene, and the sight before them left them completely bewildered.

"Hey, he looks so weird, why does he give me the creeps?" Jiraiya pointed at Yi Shuihan. If they didn't look exactly alike, he would have even doubted whether it was Yi Shuihan himself.

“This feeling is…” Unlike Jiraiya, Orochimaru noticed something was wrong in an instant. His eyes flashed with a sharp light, like that of a mad scientist who had seen something he wanted to study.

"Could it be that he not only offended the Raikage, but also the other two Kage?"

A Jonin whispered, his words almost a call to action, which immediately left the otherwise intelligent ninjas staring at Yi Shuihan in disbelief.

Even the third generation had to admit that he had underestimated Yi Shuihan's courage and strength.

At this moment, even Yi Shuihan felt his scalp tingling, just like when he faced his master, the first generation, no, or even more terrifying.

"Dust Release: Particle Style Detachment Technique"

With a loud shout, Onoki suddenly appeared in front of him and rushed towards Yi Shuihan at an extremely fast speed, instantly enveloping Yi Shuihan within it.

"No matter who you are, you have no chance of survival."

Onoki said with great confidence that his ultimate move, the Primal World Decoction Technique, was a ninjutsu that could separate an opponent into atomic states. It transcended the bloodline limit and was called Bloodline Elimination. All bloodline limits could only pale in comparison to this move.

In the original story, if it weren't for Obito Uchiha's space-time jutsu, Sasuke would have been instantly killed by this move against him. At that time, Sasuke had the strength to fight a Kage head-on.

To everyone's horror, the cube rapidly shrank and finally disappeared into the void.

"you you……"

Silence, horror, Onoki pointed at Yi Shuihan, who remained motionless and still stood there, speechless.

It was useless. His technique had no effect whatsoever. That was his strongest technique, and even using it once consumed a great deal of chakra.

Did something just happen?

The cold voice spoke, and Onoki, who was being stared at by Yi Shuihan, felt an unimaginable pressure pressing down on his entire body, making it extremely difficult to even move.

My breathing became labored, and cold sweat silently spread across my back.

Once Yi Shuihan's gaze shifted away, Onoki slowly regained consciousness and began to breathe heavily.

"I don't have time to play with you guys anymore, let's settle this with one move."

Yi Shuihan assumed a punching stance, and then punched—well, or rather, didn't punch at all, who knows? Apart from himself, everyone else only saw Onoki and the Third Kazekage suddenly fly backward and fall unconscious.

The battle ended with Yi Shuihan instantly defeating both Shadows, securing victory.

Chapter 340, Exposed Strength

Yi Shuihan withdrew from the state of Wuxiang Reincarnation, but his heart was still very unsettled. After actually using Wuxiang Reincarnation, he found that the strength he could unleash far exceeded his expectations.

Despite easily defeating two Kage, the power he used was less than one ten-thousandth of his own, and could even be said to be far less than the energy he expended when fighting the Raikage.

In the Formless Rebirth state, his attack power is greatly enhanced. If in normal mode, one point of attack energy is equivalent to one unit, in Formless Rebirth mode, he only needs one percent, or even less, of the energy to unleash one unit of attack.

A notification popped into his mind that he could submit the task, but Yi Shuihan ignored it. He could submit the task at any time, and he didn't need to worry about failing to complete it. The rewards were based on the completion rate, and he wouldn't submit the task so easily if it wasn't more than a few hundred shadows.

In fact, Yi Shuihan had another idea: after defeating all the Kage, he would make them retire and then let new Kage and Jonin take over. Wouldn't this process continuously increase the completion rate?

But then he thought about it again and gave up the idea; the system wouldn't let him find a loophole.

If someone who isn't even at the Kage level becomes a Kage, will the system recognize them?

Thinking this, Yi Shuihan remembered that the system already had rudimentary intelligence and might be able to answer his questions, so he immediately raised his question.

The system's answer left him somewhat disappointed. Just as he had expected, the system would not recognize anyone whose strength was below the Kage level as a Kage. Moreover, apart from the Kage of the Five Great Nations, the Kage of any other ninja village were not within the scope of this mission.

"So, my idea of ​​cheating really won't work?" Yi Shuihan suppressed his regret but stopped thinking about it. After all, the mission reward hadn't been mentioned, so it wasn't that tempting for him.

If the system were to specify the task rewards, depending on the circumstances, Yi Shuihan might do everything in his power to complete the task. For example, he could enhance the strength of certain people, forcibly giving them the strength of a Shadow, and forcibly racking up points.

A year is more than enough time for Yi Shuihan to do a lot of things, isn't it?

After thinking about all this, in reality it's just a blink of an eye.

Because the mission only required defeating them, not killing them, and Yi Shuihan himself didn't intend to kill the two Kage directly, Onoki and Kazekage were able to survive.

At this moment, several masked people appeared in front of them. They were the ANBU from Iwagakure and Sunagakure. Seeing that their Kage were dead or missing, they finally couldn't help but jump up.

"Don't worry, they're guests after all. How could I possibly kill them? I've already shown them mercy," Yi Shuihan said calmly. However, his words made the Dark Guards breathe a sigh of relief while they were secretly astonished.

That was still showing mercy. Such an attack would normally kill even a Kage-level expert. If it weren't for the strength of the two Kage, they might not have been able to hold on by now.

If Yi Shuihan knew their thoughts, he would surely say disdainfully, "This was all within my expectations."

"So there really is a ninja skilled in medicine? But that's to be expected, considering he's the Kage of a village."

A moment later, Onoki and the Third Kazekage regained consciousness.

“I… this is…”

Ōnoki's eyes were still somewhat dazed, but when he saw the ANBU member healing his wounds and Yi Shuihan, who had returned to normal, his memories quickly returned.

Afterwards, Onoki's expression was extremely complicated. The shock in his heart was beyond words. Even with his old fox mentality, he couldn't help but feel fear when he looked at Yi Shuihan.

Are you kidding me? He defeated the combined strength of me and the Third Kazekage in one blow. Is his strength already comparable to the First Hokage?

Or rather, even stronger.

He dared not think any further, fearing that if he did, he would fall into despair.

It's important to understand that various countries have never given up on their ambitions for the Land of Fire. If Yi Shuihan were to become a member of Konoha, they would have no hope left. It would be a distance that could drive anyone to despair, comparable to the longest road in the world. It's all part of the same old story.

Can we be more sincere and less manipulative?

Onoki felt bitter inside, and the sharpness in his eyes had completely disappeared. His appearance hadn't changed, but his heart felt like it had died.

The Third Kazekage, whose strength was slightly lower than Onoki's, was currently in the same state as Onoki.

Having achieved instant fame, it's easy to imagine that from today onward, Yi Shuihan's name will resound throughout the ninja world, making him one of the most dangerous individuals on the list of those not to be trifled with.

"How about that? Isn't your husband amazing!" Yi Shuihan walked up to Tsunade with a smug look on his face, as if to say, "Come and praise me!" This instantly changed the atmosphere.

With so many people watching, Tsunade could only blush and surprisingly did not object to being called Yi Shuihan's husband, keeping her head down and looking at her toes.

"What? It can't be true, right? Tsunade and Yi Shuihan?" Jiraiya had the biggest reaction. He looked incredulous, with a look of utter heartbreak in his eyes.

Even Jiraiya had long realized that he had been deceiving himself all along because he liked Tsunade, and it was only after seeing this scene that he finally came to his senses.

Of course, in the original work, Jiraiya is the kind of person who can accept his own unhappiness as long as Tsunade is happy. He might be sad for now, but he will probably just silently wish Yi Shuihan and Tsunade well later.

On the Konoha side, the others who didn't know were all surprised, while those who did know, such as the Third Hokage and Orochimaru, showed expressions of understanding. What they cared more about was Yi Shuihan's strength. The strength that Yi Shuihan displayed just now, that irresistible power, had shocked them.
