The Eight-Year-Old Me Became Hokage-Chapter 133: What’s a Giant Clam? It’s Just a Punch
Chapter 133 - 133: What's a Giant Clam? It's Just a Punch
Upon seeing the family crest on Kazekaze's left shoulder, Hōzuki Gengetsu's eyes widened instantly. That family crest was simply too famous.
"Senju clan of the forest..."
To be precise, it was Senju Hashirama who ended the Warring States period, pacified the chaotic world, and established the ninja villages. He was too famous. In the entire ninja world, there was no one who didn't know him. Everyone who had seen Senju Hashirama considered him the God of Ninjutsu. The ninja closest to the Sage of Six Paths. Even Hōzuki Gengetsu held both respect and fear for the name Senju Hashirama. Even the First Mizukage, Byakuren, had said during missions, if you encounter Senju Hashirama, you can directly abandon the mission to avoid unnecessary sacrifices. This shows that even the Kage of various ninja villages were very wary of Hashirama's existence.
"Hey, hey, kid, what's your relationship with the First Hokage of Konoha?" Hōzuki Gengetsu couldn't help but ask, wanting to know the relationship between Kazekaze and Hashirama. Although there are many ninjas in this world, the truly powerful ones who can leave a name in the ninja world often come from notable families. Sometimes, it's passed down through generations. Bloodline really determines so many things. Now seeing Kazekaze, Hōzuki Gengetsu couldn't help but associate him with Hashirama.
"This kid, could he be the grandson of the First Hokage?" Hōzuki Gengetsu gulped, thinking to himself. In his view, only the identity of Hashirama's grandson could explain why Kazekaze's power was so terrifying. Clearly only seven years old, yet he had mastered such terrifying power. It's no exaggeration to say, if it were other ninjas from the Hidden Mist Village executing this assassination mission, just that one encounter, they would definitely be killed in one punch by Kazekaze! Yes. Kazekaze's fist gave Hōzuki Gengetsu such a direct impression. Besides the Hydrification Technique, he couldn't even think of a way to deal with Kazekaze.

"Me?" Kazekaze landed on the ground, observing Hōzuki Gengetsu. As for his question, Kazekaze felt there was no need to hide anything.
"I am Hashirama's grandson."
"As expected." Hōzuki Gengetsu gasped, even though he had already guessed the answer, confirming it still surprised him. He was still shocked.
"Kid, your strength is the most terrifying I've encountered among all ninjas. You, without a doubt, are pure gold. So, I—no, this great me—can only kill you here." In an instant, Hōzuki Gengetsu's gaze turned sharp, and killing intent swept towards Kazekaze. He bit his thumb and then formed hand seals with both hands.
"Summoning Jutsu..."
Seeing this, Kazekaze quickly moved at high speed. Although Kazekaze thought of several ways to deal with Hōzuki Gengetsu's giant clam, undoubtedly the safest was to prevent him from using the Summoning Jutsu. Immediately! Kazekaze flashed in front of Hōzuki Gengetsu again, sweeping a roundhouse kick towards his neck. For Kazekaze, his physical attacks didn't need to be effective. As long as he could force out Hōzuki Gengetsu's Hydrification Technique, interrupting his summoning process would be enough.
However, Kazekaze still underestimated Hōzuki Gengetsu's tactical experience. The roundhouse kick swept out, hitting nothing but air. The eyebrow-less Hōzuki Gengetsu vanished before Kazekaze.
"Though this great me can't match your speed, there are countless ways to dodge your taijutsu." Just as Kazekaze was about to succeed, Hōzuki Gengetsu used the Body Flicker Technique. He flashed to another side. At the same time, he completed the final step of the hand seals.
"Summoning Jutsu!" Hōzuki Gengetsu slapped his palm on the ground, and a cloud of white smoke exploded in front of him, spreading out. And beneath him, a giant clam appeared out of thin air! The giant clam was at least dozens of times larger than Hōzuki Gengetsu. Its shell was incredibly hard, even ninja tools couldn't break through its defense.
"Kid, you've already lost." Hōzuki Gengetsu stood atop the giant clam, looking down at Kazekaze from above. In his view, Kazekaze, who couldn't stop him from using the Summoning Jutsu, had lost his only chance.
"How should I put it? This great me has always liked gold. But it's a pity, that First Hokage guy shouldn't have let you take on this mission. If you grew up, given time, you'd definitely leave a great name in the ninja world. However, having met this great me, you won't have a future, kid." Hōzuki Gengetsu said with a relaxed expression. Kazekaze's taijutsu had greatly surprised him. But just with this taijutsu, it wasn't enough to deal with him.
Illusionary Technique: Steaming Danger Tyranny! The giant clam under Hōzuki Gengetsu moved its tentacles, spewing thick mist that spread around, covering an exaggerated area. Next, the giant clam's body began to turn transparent. Eventually, it disappeared under Hōzuki Gengetsu's feet. And he gracefully landed from mid-air, standing firmly. The thick mist spewed by the giant clam spread out until it completely disappeared.
Hiruzen and the others widened their eyes, staring intently at Hōzuki Gengetsu. From their perspective, it seemed like Hōzuki Gengetsu hadn't done anything. But no one would really think that. Hōzuki Gengetsu must have used some incredible ninjutsu in conjunction with the giant clam. Thinking this, Uchiha Kagami immediately activated his Sharingan and threw a kunai straight at Hōzuki Gengetsu's heart.
Whoosh—
The kunai flew straight through. In the face of Uchiha Kagami's attack, Hōzuki Gengetsu stood still. He didn't dodge or defend. He didn't even consider Uchiha Kagami's attack worth his attention. The next second, the kunai passed right through his body without causing any harm. Hiruzen and the others widened their eyes. They couldn't understand the situation at all. What did Hōzuki Gengetsu do?
"It's useless." Hōzuki Gengetsu was satisfied, admiring everyone's expressions. Enjoying the moment. He loved the feeling when others couldn't see through his ninjutsu. And from now on, all of Kazekaze and the others' attacks would be nullified. He just needed to slowly kill them and then deal with the Daimyo of the Land of Waves. Then he could successfully complete this mission. Yes, successfully complete. Lacking sufficient information about himself, Hōzuki Gengetsu really couldn't figure out how these Konoha ninjas in front of him could have any method to break the giant clam. It didn't exist.
However, just as Hōzuki Gengetsu was about to take action and eliminate everyone present, a loud noise suddenly came from behind him. Startled, he quickly turned to look back. What came into view was the seven-year-old Kazekaze! He had accurately found the giant clam's location and used Super Strength to punch it!
Boom!
