A Fierce Battle Against the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist

Right: Kushimaru Kuriarare

Left: Raiga Kurosuki

Later: Shimo Yuki

Pakura was now surrounded by the three people in an inverted triangle formation.

"Uchiha Shunren, what do we do now?"

Sorry, I'm a bit busy right now.

Shunren transmitted his voice while brandishing the Heavy Black Iron Ruler.

"Hey, who are you, kid?" With crisscrossing scars on his cheeks and grotesque red marks from his nose to his chin, confronting Shunren was Pipa Juzo, the wielder of the Kubikiribōchō Juzo Biwa.

"Clang!"

The two heavy weapons collided heavily. Shunren felt his hands go numb from the impact. In a brief contact, even with Shunren's long-term training with the Heavy Black Iron Ruler, he was still no match for his opponent, which showed that the opponent's arm strength was amazing!

Who is this kid?

However, while Shunren was in shock, the other party was equally astonished. This was because among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist Juzo Biwa, no one could match his strength, yet he never expected that this kid who looked to be only ten years old could withstand a blow from him without retreating!

Shunren gripped the Heavy Black Iron Ruler tightly with both hands and swung it forcefully, knocking Juzo Biwa back several steps.

Instead of getting angry, the latter laughed, hoisting the Kubikiribōchō onto his shoulder with one hand, and said with a smile, "Heh! You little brat are quite amusing."

Just as Shunren was about to say something, his expression suddenly changed.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~" Then three more people arrived.

"Huh? Isn't Pakura a woman? Where did this brat come from?" The masked, one-eyed man, dressed in gray cloth, wielded a strange weapon with a scroll connected to the blade. He Munashi Jinpachi, the wielder of the Shibuki Blade: Frozen Blade.

Holding a giant axe in one hand and a giant hammer in the other, the wielder of the Jinin Akebino, Helmeppo, Kabutowari, glanced at the deep footprints beneath his feet and immediately understood, laughing loudly, "Haha, Juzo, you didn't get knocked back a few steps by this brat, did you?"

With long, chestnut-brown hair like a hedgehog, and looking like a large, obese man with a protruding belly, Suikazan Fuguki, the wielder of the Samehada, stared intently at Shunren and said coldly, "This feeling of Chakra... it's you who's been interfering with my senses, isn't it?"

Juzo Biwa brandished his Kubikiribōchō and said, "Let me play with this brat. You guys go and take care of Pakura."

"Go to hell! Right now, Kushimaru, Raiga, and Shimo are ganging up on Pakura. What's the point of us going?" Jinin Akebino chuckled. "I've never hit a kid before. I wonder if the sound of a kid's bones breaking is louder?"

"Get lost! Don't lay a hand on someone else's prey!" Juzo Biwa yelled, then his gaze shifted, "Hey! Jinpachi, what are you doing!"

"You two are dawdling and making so much noise, watch me explode!" Taking advantage of their argument, Munashi Jinpachi charged straight at Shunren, wielding Shibuki.

Shunren instinctively swung his Heavy Black Iron Ruler to meet the attack.

"Clang!" The two heavy weapons clashed together.

Munashi Jinpachi immediately exclaimed in surprise, "Oh? Your arm strength is quite impressive!"

The next second, the scroll connected to the back of the Shibuki began to spin, sending a large number of Explosive Tag cascading onto the blade.

"Boom!"

He had foreseen the power of the Exploding Blade: Shibuki, so at the moment of the explosion, Shunren leaped high into the air, raising the Heavy Black Iron Ruler high with both hands and bringing it down with great force, shouting, "Konoha-Style Kenjutsu: May Rain Slash!"

Munashi Jinpachi was careless and did not expect that Shunren would see through his explosive sword technique on their first encounter. Facing Shunren instinctively raised his sword to meet the attack.

"Fool!" Juzo Biwa was skilled in heavy sword techniques, so he could see the power of Shunren's attack at a glance and immediately raised his sword to meet it.

A heavy, loud bang!

Shunren single-handedly pressed the swords of Munashi Jinpachi and Juzo Biwa firmly to the ground.

Munashi Jinpachi, that's incredible!"

With a single strike, he suppressed the two opponents, but there was no joy on Shunren's face. This move was his strongest and only power-based sword technique, yet it was blocked by the combined efforts of the two opponents.

"Have you two not eaten?"

"Chop!" Jinin Akebino swung his axe at the Heavy Black Iron Ruler with his right hand, then raised his hammer with his left hand and smashed it down on the back of the axe. The combined force of these two blows was extremely terrifying.

Shunren couldn't even hold back, and the Heavy Black Iron Ruler in his hand was knocked out of his grasp!

"Hmph! What a waste of time." Suikazan Fuguki Hand Seals, and then his hair moved without wind and quickly hardened.

"Ninja Art: Needle Senbon!" This is a unique secret technique belonging to Suikazan Fuguki, which hardens his hair and launches it as swiftly as a rainstorm.

"Yin Release: Projection!"

With Kanshou and Bakuya in hand.

"Clang clang clang clang clang~" Shunren's twin swords flew swiftly, cutting down all the Senbon books that were as dense as a sudden rain before him.

"Impossible!" Needle Senbon was the fastest and widest-range technique among all his techniques. Suikazan Fuguki never expected that someone could break it with just a sword! This was definitely beyond the eyesight of ordinary people, unless they were a user of Dōjutsu.

"Hey... what are those eyes of this brat?" Sure enough, everyone could clearly see that Shunren's eyes had turned scarlet!

"That's the Sharingan! The Uchiha clan of Konoha?" Everyone was astonished. "How did they get mixed up with the Sand Village?"

Pakura's side is fighting three against one, so they can't hold out for long. Of course, Shunren's side won't fare much better.

Shunren then dismissed Kanshou and Bakuya. Ordinary weapons were useless against an enemy of this caliber. "Using this technique should be enough to hold them off for a while..."

Suikazan Fuguki, being a sensory-type ninja, immediately noticed Shunren's actions and his expression changed instantly. "He's about to use a large-scale Genjutsu barrier! Stop him!"

Of the four, only the pot-bellied Suikazan Fuguki was clearly not good at speed; the other three reacted quickly and charged forward with their swords drawn.

"Swish swish~"

Juzo Biwa, Jinin Akebino Munashi Jinpachi —three figures Body Flicker Technique appeared before Shunren. "How dare you cast a barrier in front of us? Too slow!"

"Get out of here!"

At this moment, Shunren disregarded the consumption of Chakra and immediately projected his most powerful Zanpakuto, Zangetsu. Facing the fierce attack from the three people in front of him, he fearlessly swung his sword to meet it head-on.

"Getsuga Tensho!"
