Chapter 127: Chapter 123: Sannin
The two armies met as Ninjutsu was wildly thrown from both sides while kunai and shuriken adorned with blood hit the ground.
But while this war of madness began, the leaders of both armies stood across from each other.
"So you're the Commander and Vice Commanders from the side of Konoha? Not bad." Hanzo complimented as he prepared to fight the three.
However, the three showed no fear, with the first move being made by Jiraiya as he almost instantly appeared beside Hanzo and went for a powerful kick.
But to Hanzo's credit, he simply caught the kick and threw Jiraiya in the opposite direction.
Orochimaru instantly appeared on the left of Hanzo, with him sending his blade at the throat of the Demigod, though Hanzo easily blocked the sword before retaliating with an arc made from his sickle.
Hanzo then followed up in an attempt to slash Orochimaru in half, though the attack stopped halfway through as Hanzo jumped back to dodge a powerful punch that destroyed the ground between them.
Tsunade had activated her new Hellfire Incarnate mode on top of her Sage Mode, with her speed becoming among one of the fastest in the world at that point.
However, the fact that Hanzo could dodge the attack showed his speed was also on that level.
Tsunade blitzed towards him again, with the two moving at extreme speeds with their attacks as they destroyed the surroundings with their attacks.
Tsunade then jumped back and punched forward with terrifying force.
"Calidus Brachium Purgatory!!"
Orochimaru and Jiraiya then jumped beside her and added to the attack with two powerful Wind Releases.
The overbearing Fire Release that was enhanced by the Wind Release seemed to be intent on obliterating Hanzo.
"Water Style: Great Exploding Water Colliding!!"
An overbearing amount of water matched the powerful attack made by the three, with the two attacks clashing and simply producing an ungodly amount of steam.
Tsunade and the others continued their offensive, with them attempting to overtake Hanzo as he countered them while slightly being pressed.
During the battle, Hanzo's mask was destroyed, though this proved to be a disadvantage for Tsunade and the others as they now had to beware of the poison that Hanzo passively emitted through things like breathing.
Hanzo also coated his blade in poison using it to battle the three.
Though with Tsunade's healing factor, Orochimaru's body that was changed due to the White Snake Sage, and Jiraiya having the aid of Ma and Pa, they were able to keep the poison at bay during the duration of their battle.
Tsunade and the others created distance as they began trying to come up with a way to ultimately defeat Hanzo, with them not knowing how they should keep the man down.
However, they were stunned to see a giant salamander appear from the ground in front of them with Hanzo standing atop it.
The Salamander blasted a massive amount of poison toward the three, with them just barely being able to avoid it as it melted where they previously stood.
The three looked at each other and decided to each even the odds against such a massive summon.
""" Summoning Jutsu!!"""
The three spoke those words in unison as they each slammed their hands on the ground, with grand amounts of smoke erupting from each.
Jiraiya appeared atop a giant Toad, with it having a pipe in its mouth as he looked at Jiraiya.
"You bastard! You just summon me whenever you get ready to!" Gamabunta said, though he ceased his rant once he noticed Ma and Pa there while also seeing the giant Salamander before him.
Orochimaru stood on top of a purple snake, it menacingly staring at the salamander before him.
"I didn't expect to be summoned so soon, Orochimaru." Manda said.
While he still had the pride he always had, he knew better than to anger one that was so close to the White Snake Sage.
And finally, Tsunade stood on top of a summon that was larger than both Gamabunta and Manda.
"Katsuyu, split yourself up to aid the shinobi of ours who are battling." Tsunade told Katsuyu as she sent small copies of herself to her ninja while a version of her who was about the same size as Manda and Gamabunta stayed to aid in the upcoming battle.
Tsunade had summoned about 80 percent of Katsuyu, with her still not being able to summon the full totality of her, though she felt she would one day grow to that level.
The three stood on top of the summonings, with them creating the Three Way Deadlock.
"Well then, let's defeat a Demigod." Jiraiya said as they charged into battle against him once more.
Gamabunta slashed at the Salamander as he headed the charge with Manda not far behind him.
Hanzo and his Salamander dodged the attack as the grand battle continued with the massive summoning clashing while the summoners fought with all their might.
Jiraiya was able to use his Frog Kata to deliver powerful punches to Hanzo, though Hanzo was able to successfully poison Jiraiya as he slashed him across his chest.
Orochimaru was more cautious, but he knew he didn't have enough firepower to finish off Hanzo, with him deciding to create an opening for Tsunade by allowing himself to be hit by a powerful slash.
Tsunade waited until the opportune moment when she felt Hanzo would let down his guard so that she could deliver an overwhelming blow to him.
When it arrived, Tsunade poured all of her strength into the attack, with her wishing to obliterate the man.
She knew that a single focused attack may not be able to succeed, so she instead did something that many would have thought was impossible.
She once again poured all of her Fire Chakra to deliver the attack, though she this time imbued the attack with Senjutsu Chakra.
"Sage Art: Flames of Surtr!!"
Hanzo saw this and used his strongest attack, that being with the use of his blade, and deliver an awe-inspiring slash at Tsunade
While the sword blade maybe stood at the peak of all swordsmen in the world, the attack was ultimately overpowered by Tsunade's final attack.
Hanzo was blasted by it and burned to an overpowering degree, though the widespread nature of the attack made it much weaker than it would have been if it was concentrated.
The troops of the Land of the Rain looked shocked as they saw the battered Hanzo stand once more, a testament to his power.
"Shinobi of the Rain!! We shall retreat!!" Hanzo announced loudly, making the Rain Shinobi look at them in a shocking manner.
He then turned his attention to the 3 that defeated him that were each adorned with a great amount of scars, while he was barely standing from the wounds he gained in the battle.
"You three are capable of defeating a man such as me, one known as the Demigod of the Shinobi World. In a testament to your strengths, I pronounce you the Sannin who even beat the Demigod!!" Hanzo said with pride still evident in him before he left, with none of the Sannin even trying to stop him due to how exhausted they were.

"Tell our Shinobi to retreat, we shall return to the Village." Roshi ordered, him overlooking the previous battle from a cliff.
"But sir, I'm confident we can defeat them with how exhausted they both are." A leading shinobi told them, though Roshi seemed to pay the comment no attention.
"Do you truly wish to battle both the Demigod and the so-called Sannin who defeated him? Especially if they are desperate enough that they have nothing else to lose? That's a battle we have already lost. I'll deal with Lord Tsuchikage's wrath myself. I won't waste our shinobi and resources like this." Roshi said as he walked back through the army, the Shinobi following him as they wondered what would happen to the war on this front.
~
"I should tell this information to Lord Madara. Such a strong new generation of Shinobi should be paid attention to." A creature said as it phased through the ground.
