Chapter 131
Since the black curse seal covered Haruto Saito's entire body except for his face, when Tsunade's punch landed on his shoulder, she made direct contact with the seal. In that moment, she could feel the chakra properties and effects of the seal.
"He's using a unique sealing technique to suppress his injuries, preventing them from worsening during battle. Moreover, the seal on his body grants him an exceptionally strong defensive ability. Unless he takes a full-frontal attack at 100% force, even I would struggle to break through this seal!" Tsunade's face paled slightly as she spoke while attempting to move her shoulder.
She could still move it, but every motion sent waves of excruciating pain through her body!
"Is that even possible? How can such a technique exist?" Ryoji Takeda exclaimed in disbelief.
Haruto, who had nearly been killed by Tsunade's punch, was somehow able to seal his injuries? And on top of that, he had an incredibly strong defense?!
From the defensive effect alone, it was somewhat similar to the Lightning Chakra Mode used by the Hidden Cloud Village in the Land of Lightning, but the manifestation was different. However, what truly baffled Ryoji was the ability to seal injuries!
How could wounds possibly be sealed?!
"If he didn't possess unique abilities, how could he be known as the Rain Village's number one assassin?" Tsunade stood up, her gaze locked onto Haruto. "And don't assume this sealing technique is something he can use freely. Based on my understanding of sealing jutsu, the cost of activating this ability must be unimaginable!"
"Heh! You sure know a lot," Haruto smirked as he took a few steps to the side, picking up the sword that had fallen earlier.
"Does that mean he's unkillable now? You couldn't even break through his defense," Ryoji said hastily.
"There's no such thing as an unkillable shinobi! His curse seal defense likely only protects against physical attacks, but it doesn't block ninjutsu damage. In other words, flames can still burn him, and lightning can still harm him!"
