Blood-Stained Thorns, Banshō Ten'in's Judgment!

Under Duanmu Ci's control, the surface of the giant trees in the attacked area instantly sprouted countless sharper, spear-like hardwood branches, stabbing back at Suikazan Fuguki and Samehada like a thorny jungle! At the same time, thick vines extended from the barrier, coiling like giant pythons toward the other Seven Ninja Swordsmen members trying to approach or attack!

Offense and defense in one! Duanmu Ci's Wood Style revealed its terrifying might as a "Divine Power" in this moment. The core of Taoyuan Village had temporarily become an insurmountable chasm for the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.

On top of the barrier, Duanmu Ci looked down at the shocked and enraged Seven Ninja Swordsmen below, his voice like ice, ringing across the battlefield:

"Butchers of the Mist, this isn't a place for your rampage! If you want to touch Taoyuan Village, first ask my Wood Style if it agrees!"

Seven Ninja Swordsmen VS Konoha Azure Dragon! Around the Tree Realm Barrier that protected everything, the brutal battle of offense and defense had only just begun its bloody prelude! The Tree Realm Barrier stood like an ancient divine shield, firmly guarding the core of Taoyuan Village. The Seven Ninja Swordsmen's fierce assault was forcibly halted for the first time before this living giant wall. But these killing machines from the Land of Bloody Mist were no idle boast—after a brief shock came even crazier attacks and merciless coordination.

"Don't let a wall scare you! Concentrate the attack on one point! Fuguki, Jinpachi! Blast it open from the front!" Juzo Biwa, as the most experienced, immediately roared out adjustments to their tactics.

"Leave it to me! Samehada, feast!" Suikazan Fuguki roared, his obese body erupting with astonishing power as he swung the door-sized Great Sword: Shark Skin, slamming it viciously into the same spot on the barrier. The barbs on Samehada madly tore at the wood, trying to devour chakra. Each heavy strike made the giant tree emit a dull boom, wood chips flying everywhere.

"Explode! Explode! Explode! Blow it to hell for me!" Munashi Jinpachi went completely berserk, the Exploding Blade Shibuki spraying out dense Explosive Tags like a machine gun, precisely sticking to the area Fuguki was attacking. A continuous chain of violent explosions charred that section of the barrier black, and cracks began to spread! The two worked together, trying to break through at a single point!

"Raiga! Keep bombarding! Don't let the scum inside have a chance to repair!" Raiga Kurosuki swung his twin blades continuously, thick bolts of lightning like plowing electric dragons relentlessly hammering other areas of the barrier, interfering with Duanmu Ci's chakra output and Wood Style repairs while suppressing the guards trying to counterattack from behind the wall.

"Kushimaru! Jinin! Mangetsu! Take care of those annoying flies (the guards) and find the weak points! Don't let them disrupt Fuguki and Jinpachi!" Juzo Biwa himself prowled the flanks, the Kubikiribōchō slashing out sharp blade winds to cut the vines and wooden spikes trying to bind and entangle them, his eyes coldly scanning the entire battlefield.

With the orders given, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen's coordination was on full display.

Kushimaru Kuriarare slipped away from the main battlefield like a ghost, the Nuibari drawing deadly silver lines in the moonlight. Every flicker was accompanied by the scream of a guard who hadn't made it back behind the barrier in time. His speed was too fast, his attack angles vicious and precise, targeting gaps in the guards' defenses to sow panic and casualties.

"Bastard!" Shizune's eyes burned with fury as she led an elite squad to intercept Kushimaru. "Medical Ninjutsu: Poison Mist Spray!" She spewed a wide area of purple poison mist, but Kushimaru twisted his body eerily, slipping through the gaps in the mist, the Nuibari thrusting straight for Shizune's throat!

"Watch out!" A nearby guard threw himself forward to push Shizune away, but took the Nuibari through his shoulder instead, pinned to the ground with a pained grunt.

"In the way!" Jinin Akebino swung the heavy Kabutowari, charging like a human tank toward another guard gathering. The axe-hammer greatsword came down with a terrifying gale, shattering a steel shield raised by a guard like paper, sending both man and shield flying, their fate unknown. His strength was too great; the guards' coordinated formation was forcibly scattered.

Hozuki Mangetsu (or his successor), wielding the Twin Swords: Flatfish, stood calmly at a distance. The flounder-shaped twin swords merged, a highly compressed water ball radiating a terrifying aura gathering at the tips. "Water Style: Water Ball Jutsu!" he muttered, firing the water ball like a cannonball—not at the barrier itself, but precisely at a crack in the barrier's base left by Raiga's earlier lightning!

Boom! The high-pressure water ball exploded, the immense impact instantly widening the crack, water seeping in and further eroding the wooden structure!

The Seven Ninja Swordsmen's tactics were extremely effective! With Fuguki and Jinpachi's frontal assault, Kushimaru and Jinin's flanking slaughter and destruction, Raiga's suppressive interference, and Mangetsu's precision strikes, the Tree Realm Barrier began to tremble violently under such ferocious and concentrated fire. The cracks in the concentrated area rapidly deepened and widened, charred and shattered, and the repair speed began to lag behind the destruction!

On top of the barrier, Duanmu Ci's face had turned slightly pale. Maintaining such a massive Tree Realm Barrier while withstanding the Seven Ninja Swordsmen's relentless bombardment was a huge drain on his Sage Chakra and mental energy. He could clearly feel the barrier's pained groans.

"I can't let them keep this up!" Duanmu Ci's eyes sharpened. He had to break their rhythm and take the initiative!

His gaze instantly locked onto the two most threatening points—Hozuki Mangetsu, who was frantically destroying the barrier's foundation, and Jinin Akebino, who was rampaging through the guards, causing heavy casualties. Especially Jinin Akebino, who was a bit farther from the core barrier and in a relatively exposed position.

"You're it!" Murderous intent boiled in Duanmu Ci's heart. His hands quickly formed seals within his wide sleeves, and deep in his Rinnegan, purple ripples swirled rapidly again!

"Banshō Ten'in!"

"Banshō Ten'in!"

Duanmu Ci's right hand suddenly aimed at Jinin Akebino, who was swinging Kabutowari to send a guard and his weapon flying, and his five fingers clenched the air!

"Huh?!" Jinin Akebino suddenly felt an irresistible, overwhelming gravitational force seize his entire body! His several-hundred-pound heavy frame, along with the massive Kabutowari, was lifted off the ground like a light scarecrow, completely uncontrollably flying backward at high speed toward the barrier where Duanmu Ci stood—more precisely, toward Suikazan Fuguki and Munashi Jinpachi, who were madly hacking at the barrier!

"What the hell?!" Jinin Akebino screamed in terror, flailing his hands and feet uselessly in the air, unable to break free from the bizarre force. He felt like an invisible giant hand had grabbed him and thrown him!

"Jinin?!"

"Watch out!!"

Juzo Biwa and Suikazan Fuguki both spotted the horrifying scene and cried out in shock.

But it all happened too fast!

Jinin Akebino, like a human cannonball, slammed into Suikazan Fuguki and Munashi Jinpachi, who were attacking the barrier side by side, at terrifying speed under the Banshō Ten'in's pull!

"Bastard! Dodge!" Suikazan Fuguki's obese body couldn't react in time, only managing to twist sideways.

Munashi Jinpachi, bloodshot and focused, didn't notice the change behind him at all, still frantically sticking Explosive Tags to the barrier: "Blow up! Blow it open for me!"

Boom—!!!

Jinin Akebino's immensely heavy body, along with his equally massive Kabutowari, crashed solidly into Munashi Jinpachi's back!

"Pfft—!" Munashi Jinpachi's eyes bulged, a mouthful of blood mixed with organ fragments spraying out! The immense impact sent him flying forward like a torn sack, and in his hand, he was still clutching a handful of unthrown, activated Explosive Tags!

Even worse, his flying trajectory was aimed straight at Suikazan Fuguki, who had left an opening while dodging sideways!
