A Chance Encounter with Mei Terumi
Knowing that Hiashi and Hizashi were in dire straits, Yemo sped up to his maximum speed and rushed towards their location, with rows of tall trees rapidly receding behind Yemo.
Deep in the silent forest, the Genin who entered concealed themselves almost instantly. Only a few were as arrogant as Yemo. Their goal was the same: to reunite with their teammates. Only by reuniting with their teammates and other ninjas from the same village could they proceed to the next step of seizing the scroll.
As soon as the match began, the killing began. Although the forest was vast, it was inevitable that more than a hundred genin would Genin into each other, and some unlucky ones were killed in no time.
Silly...
In a dense forest, Hozuki Mangetsu carried Kubikiribōchō seemed completely disproportionate to his body, a trickle of blood flowing along its snow-white blade.
At Hozuki Mangetsu's feet, a ninja wearing Kusagakure Hozuki Mangetsu with his Forehead Protector's Kubikiribōchō. Blood flowed like a tide from the severed neck, staining the surrounding ground crimson.
Looking at the dead Grass Ninja at his feet, Hozuki Mangetsu felt utterly bored. "This is really pointless. Is this all the elite ninja from these small villages are capable of? They don't even give me the slightest desire to fight. But I did get the first scroll; I wonder how Mei Terumi is doing?"
While muttering to himself, Hozuki Mangetsu tossed the scroll he had just taken from the dead Grass Ninja with his left hand. He had already secured his spot; now he just needed to confirm whether his teammates Mei Terumi and Onibi Hotaru, had encountered any problems.
After saying that, Hozuki Mangetsu caught the scroll that had been thrown into the air and put it in his pocket. He then gently swung his huge Kubikiribōchō with his right hand. With a bang, the Kubikiribōchō turned into a cloud of white smoke and disappeared. After several flashes, it vanished without a trace, leaving only the gruesome corpse on the ground.
Such scenes of slaughter were not isolated incidents; countless other places within the dense forest were witnessing the same events.
Although everyone has a signal flare, in the face of overwhelming strength, you won't even have a signal flare before you die by the opponent's blade, your body separated from your head. Your body won't be found until after the exam.
Fire Style: Raging Fire Great Wave
In a dense forest, raging flames suddenly appeared out of nowhere, gathering together and creating a fire wave several meters high that surged towards Terumi Mei, who was dressed in exquisite purple attire and had Mei Terumi.
The orange-yellow Kakkō shone on Mei Terumi's beautiful face, making her snow-white skin seem to glow faintly. Facing the oncoming heat wave, Mei Terumi remained calm, her hands quickly and unhurriedly Hand Seals.
"Water Release: Water Formation Pillar!"
With Mei Terumi took a deep breath, and the next second, she exhaled a large column of water, which crashed like ocean waves onto the blazing sun.
Water Release is the nemesis of Fire Style, and Mei Terumi's Water Release is obviously stronger than the opponent's Fire Style. The unstoppable heat wave was instantly extinguished by the water, forming a large amount of white steam that spread in the surrounding area.
Whoosh... whoosh...
Two whooshing sounds rang out, and two dark figures emerged one after the other through the white steam, surrounding Mei Terumi. These were two ninjas from a small ninja village, each wielding a long sword.
With a gentle wave of his long sword, the ninja in front of him smiled slightly at Mei Terumi and said, "Kirigakure Ninja, hand over your scroll obediently, and we might spare your life. If you don't hand it over obediently, don't blame me for being ruthless."
As he spoke, he slowly raised the long sword in his hand. The sunlight that had finally pierced through the dense foliage shone on the snow-white blade, and the reflected light flashed rapidly across Mei Terumi's neck, the sharp tip of the blade pointing directly at Mei Terumi.
"Looks like we're pretty lucky; we got the first scroll so easily."
The ninja blocking Mei Terumi's retreat chuckled coldly, a cruel smile spreading across his face. He slowly twirled the long sword in his hand, clearly believing that this female Genin from Kirigakure was already theirs for the taking.
Hearing the two men's words, Mei Terumi snorted coldly, making no attempt to hide her disdain, and said, "You two dare to steal my scroll? Are all the ninjas in small villages this arrogant these days?"
The two ninjas were furious at Mei Terumi. In their eyes, it was outrageous that this female ninja from Kirigakure, whom they had cornered, dared to mock them at such a time.
Raising his long sword and pointing it at Mei Terumi, the ninja in front of him said menacingly, "It seems you're courting death. I was originally going to spare your life, but now I've changed my mind. I've decided to search your corpse for the scroll."
"Then come on!" Mei Terumi beckoned to the ninja in front of her, making no attempt to hide the disdain in her tone.
The two ninjas felt their anger about to erupt like a volcano. The ninja in front gripped his Chunin and rushed towards Mei Terumi, the bright blade flashing with cold light.
"Boil Release: Boil Release: Skilled Mist Technique"
Mei Terumi quickly Hand Seals, completing them almost instantly. Then, Mei Terumi parted her red lips slightly and exhaled a large amount of yellow smoke at the ninjas attacking her.
The seemingly ordinary smoke possessed terrifying acidity. The moment the ninja came into contact with it, he let out a miserable scream. His skin was completely corroded by the smoke, and he suffered excruciating pain. He dropped his long sword, covered his face with both hands, and screamed in agony.
The snow-white longsword that fell to the ground was quickly corroded into scrap metal. Even steel could hardly withstand the corrosion of the acid mist, let alone flesh and blood. The clothes on the ninja's body, which was covered by the acid mist, were corroded in the blink of an eye, especially the hands that were first exposed to the acid mist, which even exposed the white bones.
"Ah... what is this thing? Help me, ah..."
Seeing his companion's miserable state, the ninja behind him was already dumbfounded with fear. It was his companion's shouts that woke him up. He grabbed his sword with both hands and rushed towards Mei Terumi.
This ninja was somewhat clever; he knew that to rescue his comrades, he had to first defeat this Kirigakure Ninja and break her Ninjutsu.
Unfortunately, he underestimated Mei Terumi's strength and overestimated his own. Before he could even get close to Mei Terumi, Mei Terumi suddenly turned around and sprayed a large amount of yellow acid mist at him.
Seeing the acid mist approaching, the ninja was terrified. His companion's miserable state was right in front of him. He hurriedly stopped and tried to retreat to avoid the acid mist attack. But Mei Terumi had already given up. At this distance, he absolutely could not escape the acid mist. His eyes were filled with fear as he watched helplessly as the acid mist attacked.
The next second, a scream rang out. This ninja finally understood the excruciating pain his companion had felt. Just over ten seconds later, both ninjas were killed in succession by the acid mist spewed out by Mei Terumi.
After dealing with the two ninjas who wanted to kill her, Mei Terumi raised her head, tossed her long brown hair, glanced at the two corpses on the ground, and looked at them with disdain. She thought to herself, "I'm not a hunter. Not just anyone can be a hunter. A hunter without skill will be killed by his prey."
Snap snap snap...
Just then, applause suddenly broke the silence. Mei Terumi's pretty face changed. She hadn't even noticed that someone was next to her. Without thinking, she quickly turned around and looked warily in the direction of the sound. Upon closer inspection, she saw a familiar figure standing on a large tree behind her.
Upon seeing the person in the tree, Mei Terumi exclaimed in surprise, "It's you, a ninja from Konoha!"
Who else could be clapping behind him besides Yemo? He was heading towards the positions of Hyuga Hiashi and Hizashi Hyuga when he happened to witness Mei Terumi using her Kekkei Genkai Boil Release to kill two ninjas. He couldn't help but stop, wanting to see just how strong the future Fifth Mizukage would be in his youth.
Seeing that Mei Terumi had killed the two ninjas so quickly, Yemo couldn't help but applaud, which was Mei Terumi noticed.
"Kirigakure Ninja, I didn't expect to meet you again!" Yemo smiled slightly, a smile that was quite intriguing.
