With his hand gripping the Heavy Black Iron Ruler tightly, Shunren carefully felt the weighty texture emanating from the massive ruler. He swung it steadily, unleashing a fierce burst of energy that could easily crush a Sand Ninja Chunin!
"Pfft~" After Shunren stomped down a Sand Ninja with a foot-long stomp, the opponent's dense attacks came crashing down.
The large gusts of wind blades unleashed by the Three Star Fan struck the black ruler, producing a clanging sound and tiny sparks.
Shunren turned his head to take a look, then dragged the Heavy Black Iron Ruler straight towards the Sand Ninja wielding the Three Star Fan.
"Quick! Stop him!"
As expected, the Sand Ninja who use this kind of ninja tool lack the means to deal with close combat attacks and need their companions to protect them.
"Bang bang bang~" Shunren charged forward recklessly, wielding his ruler to smash down every Sand Ninja who tried to block his path.
They rushed up to one of the Sand Ninja wielding Three Star Fan, and in his terror, the latter grabbed the iron Three Star Fan and swung it at them.
The result was obvious: Shunren flattened the opponent's Three Star Fan in a single exchange and smashed it into the ground like a whack-a-mole, staining the dust with blood.
"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!"
"Swish swish swish~"
Shunren single-handedly fought against an entire Sand Ninja squad, enabling the Konoha Ninja behind him to continuously deliver firepower, further increasing the casualties among the Sand Ninja on the battlefield.
However, at that moment, reinforcements from the Sand Ninja arrived at the scene in a flash.
Unfortunately, they arrived a bit too late. The Sand Ninja vanguard team of nearly thirty members was almost completely wiped out!
"Stop it!"
Before the enraged Sand Ninja, Shunren stabbed the last Sand Ninja in the vanguard squad into the sky.
"Pfft~" The Sand Ninja corpse, its body twisted abnormally, fell from mid-air and hung on Shunren's Heavy Black Iron Ruler.
After doing all this, Shunren finally turned his gaze to the belated Sand Ninja reinforcements and said calmly, "Excuse me, what did you just say?"
The leader of the Sand Ninja support force was named Ma Ying, a Jonin, one of the best in the Sand Ninja, and a well-known figure in the Shinobi World. Although he had only seven Sand Ninja under his command, two of them were Jonin and five were Special Jōnin.
At this moment, Ma Ying extremely angry. When he arrived, he not only saw his companions lying dead on the ground in a gruesome state, but after he shouted "Stop!" with murderous intent, the other party killed the last person without even a moment's hesitation.
Ma Ying's face darkened, his Chakra surging as he spoke, "Didn't you hear me tell you to stop?"
"Thump~" Shunren tossed the inhuman Sand Ninja corpse hanging on the Heavy Black Iron Ruler aside like trash, without saying a word, and simply raised his left hand.
Following Shunren's gesture, the Konoha Ninja behind him immediately launched a frenzied bombardment of the enemy!
"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!"
Earth Release: Flying Locust Stones!
Water Release: Water Chaos Waves!
A variety of Ninjutsu, plus a barrage of Shuriken thrown from the sky.
No one in the Sand Ninja changed color.
Ma Ying raised his hand and unleashed a palm strike, "Wind Release - Wind Return!"
There was no storm, nor were any sharp wind blades created; it was simply a flowing stream of Chakra formed in front of him.
"Huh?!" Shunren's eyes transformed into Sharingan.
The various Ninjutsu and Shuriken that landed in front of Ma Ying strangely made a 180-degree turn with the flowing air, and finally struck Shunren!
"This guy... is he using Wind Release to manipulate airflow and redirect all physical attacks?" Shunren's Sharingan clearly saw through the opponent's technique.
The blue-gold runes flashed across Shunren's wrist.
Arcane Shift!
Shunren's figure transformed into a golden streak of light, dodging all attacks, while simultaneously hurling the Heavy Black Iron Ruler in his hand at his opponent.
Ma Ying indifferent, preparing to continue manipulating the airflow to turn Shunren's Heavy Black Iron Ruler back.
However, Ma Ying soon realized something was wrong; the airflow injected into the Heavy Black Iron Ruler could not budge it in the slightest!
Ma Ying's expression changed slightly. He then trembled his palm, increasing the force of the airflow. He managed to move the Heavy Black Iron Ruler that was hurtling towards him a little. Finally, he used both hands to stop the Heavy Black Iron Ruler. He tried to turn it back, but unfortunately, he didn't have enough strength, and the Heavy Black Iron Ruler finally crashed heavily to the ground.
"Clang~"
Upon seeing the ruler-shaped weapon, half-buried in the ground, the remaining Sand Ninja were dumbfounded. "What kind of weapon is this? Senior Ma Ying's Wind Release couldn't even move it?"
"Yin Release: Projection!"
On the back of the Elucidator, in the hands of Kanshou and Bakuya, a crimson light flashed from the Sharingan, Shunren instantly transformed into a cheetah charging towards Ma Ying!
Without the suppression of the Heavy Black Iron Ruler, and with the attribute bonus from the Elucidator, Shunren's speed increased many times over!
"Such speed!" Ma Ying's eyes widened. Judging from Shunren's previous fighting style, he thought he was just a guy who only used brute force. This sudden burst of speed really caught him off guard.
"Whoosh~"
The sword flashed.
Shunren excelled in close-quarters combat! Therefore, at this moment, as Shunren's hands moved like shadows, a dazzling array of sword shadows—slashing, cutting, parrying, and thrusting—targeted Ma Ying's vital points, attacking like a storm!
Faced with Shunren's fierce and unparalleled attack, Ma Ying was caught off guard at the beginning and suffered a few minor injuries, but he immediately launched a fierce counterattack! He was skilled in Wind Release and was also a master of Taijutsu. With a wave of his hand, he channeled powerful wind-attribute Chakra and deflected most of Shunren's sword moves.
Everyone stared intently at the two fiercely battling on the battlefield. The powerful Chakra of the Jonin continued to increase, and the intense clash of swords against the gale-force winds produced a constant series of crackling and explosive sounds.
On the battlefield where light and shadow flickered, two figures moved swiftly and continuously. The clear sound of swords clashing and the buzzing of wind could be heard constantly from their fierce clashes. Moreover, the frenzied momentum of their attacks continued to rise steadily, becoming more and more intense and insane!
"Pfft~"
Shunren's Sharingan spotted a tiny flaw in his opponent's defenses. He cleaved through the gale with his sword and cut a gash in the opponent's stomach.
"Pfft~"
However, Ma Ying was not one to be trifled with. Sharp wind blades swirled around his fingertips as he slammed a hole into Shunren's shoulder!
