A Fine Ninja

"I still have things to do, and I need to hurry while I'm still alive!"

Oro struggled to shake off the pessimistic thoughts in his mind, calmed down, and immediately took out two bamboo tubes from his person.

The thin rope at the end was quickly pulled open, and after a whooshing sound, two puffs of smoke, one red and one green, exploded in the air.

Seeing the Signal flare launch successfully, he instantly calmed down. The final warning had been sent to the frontline troops; he had fulfilled his responsibilities.

Is there any chance to escape from Purple Aurora now? Even if many people are sacrificed, it would be a victory if Ringo Ameyuri get away.

"Yuyuri, we'll cover your escape with everything we have..."

"It's no use, Oro- senpai." Ringo Ameyuri face, seemingly unaware of her predicament. "Look around us, it seems we can't escape."

Oro and several Mist Ninja glanced up, a chill creeping into their hearts.

Shuichi is on the left hillside, Shuichi is on the right cliff, and even Shuichi's figure is at the exit behind them; they are "surrounded".

Shuichi seeing the Signal flare in the sky; he had no idea what kind of signal the other side was trying to send.

The situation is now largely settled, and it can be basically declared that Konoha has successfully taken over the Seven Star Tree area.

The Third Hokage was indeed experienced and shrewd; he sent reinforcements shortly after Shuichi's team set off.

The village ninjas are almost here, and with me in the center to oversee things, we're not afraid of a combined attack from the Wind and Water Countries.

"I want to see if the Purple Aurora lives up to its name! Everyone, get your spirits up and charge!"

Oro shouted, and led the Kirigakure Villagers to turn and charge towards the Shuichi's Shadow Clone behind them.

Although their opponent was extremely powerful, the Kirigakure Village had no cowards and were determined to take a piece of their enemy's flesh, even at the cost of their lives.

"A feeble ant, overestimating its own strength, is merely struggling in vain."

Shuichi uttered two villainous threats, and his Shadow Clone, working in perfect unison, unleashed a simultaneous Kirigakure Ninjutsu three directions.

Wind Release: Vacuum Orb!

Countless air balloons, like bullets, slashed through the air, weaving together into a dense, impenetrable net.

With his high-intensity chakra support, an ordinary ninja would be pierced by a single shot, even with a hard skull.

Water Release: Water Formation Wall!

Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall!

Within the fleeing Kirigakure, three ninja unleashed their full defensive Ninjutsu, using waves of water and earthen walls to protect them.

However, Shuichi's casting speed was incredibly fast. They had already begun preparing for the Nature Transformation, but they still didn't have time to unleash its full power.

Puff puff puff--

The Vacuum Orb bullets transformed into a torrential rain, striking the earthen wall; inevitably, their power was somewhat reduced.

The bullets didn't penetrate many of the Mist Ninja, but they still dug deep craters into their flesh.

They successfully took several lives, and the remaining people were mostly covered in injuries.

However, areas such as the joints of the legs and feet are difficult to protect, and these injuries will reduce their mobility to almost zero.

Apart from Ringo Ameyuri being surrounded and protected, no one else could escape.

The Shadow Clone have been appearing for quite some time now. Shuichi had previously sent them in separate groups to quickly eliminate the enemies within the Seven Star Tree area.

Therefore, he doesn't have much chakra left, and two of them disappeared immediately after releasing the Vacuum Orb.

So he decided to take matters into his own hands, and with a whoosh, he jumped down from the Taiseki, landing opposite Oro and Ringo Ameyuri, and became an obstacle by stretching his wrists.

"Yuyuri, find a way to survive!"

Oro let out a low growl and charged towards Shuichi along with the remaining five.

Ringo Ameyuri didn't smile this time. She pursed her lips and followed suit, using Lightning Release to control the Nuibari and hurling it towards the location where Shuichi was.

Call!

Shuichi discovered that the sword was actually making constant fine adjustments as it flew, which explained why the Sunagakure soldiers had such difficulty dodging its piercing attacks.

However, he was different. When the Nuibari was almost within reach, his arm, wrapped in White Sand, swung in a circle from bottom to top, precisely meeting the tip of the knife.

Sizzle!

Upon noticing that a third of the Magnetic Release Bracer had been broken, he thought to himself that their power was impressive and decided to leave it for the time being.

Facing the charging Oro and his group, Shuichi suddenly puffed out his cheeks and Water Release: Heavenly Weeping!

"Ugh..."

The high-speed Water Needles pierced through the crowd with lightning speed, catching the Kirigakure Clan off guard. They hadn't expected that this insidious Water Release wouldn't require Hand Seals. Several people covered their eyes, bleeding and crying out in pain.

Taking advantage of the situation, Shuichi Body Flicker Technique lunged forward, grabbed the wrist of a nearby person and blew it off, then snatched the falling Katana and killed the person with a backhand slash.

Then, he darted into the crowd at high speed, and it seemed as if countless blades flashed by in an instant, swish swish swish!

Including Oro, all the Mist Ninja had fatal cuts on their necks and fell one after another without moving.

"I'm a swordsmanship genius too..." Shuichi sighed, plunging the Katana he'd hastily picked up into the ground. "It's just a pity my Ninjutsu talent is too strong, overshadowing my other strengths."

Looking at his only remaining enemy Ringo Ameyuri, he calmly asked, "The team our Konoha sent earlier was Kirigakure. Can you tell me where their bodies are? I can make sure you die without any pain."

Ringo Ameyuri's smile returned, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth. "I personally killed two of them. It's a pity I never got to lift the Thunder Swords I've always wanted. What a shame!"

"I can tell you, but if the body is so rotten that it's unrecognizable, that's none of my business."

I've heard that Purple Aurora's mastery of Lightning Release is the strongest in the Shinobi World, so my only request is to die by Lightning Release.

Shuichi eyebrow and then smiled, "I kind of admire your courage. My Lightning Release can really hurt, but I hope you won't regret it."

"By the way, here's some news: Thunder Swords is already in my hands, and I killed Raiga Kurosuki. I hope you'll suffer less before you die."

"Is that so? That's really good news!" Ringo Ameyuri channeled a large amount of chakra into the Nuibari, and the slender blade covered in lightning transformed into a giant sword.

With her meridians constantly bursting, she knew she couldn't hold on like this for long, so she immediately used her strongest attack to kill Shuichi.

Shuichi calmly looked at her, his right fist forming a sword-like finger, and extremely dense Lightning Release Chakra transformed into two steel needles that shot out, converging into an incomparably sharp blade.

Most of his body was enveloped in the electric current emanating from his fingertips, and he vanished from the spot without a visible movement of his feet.

A deafening roar immediately echoed through the valley, and a crack tens of meters long instantly appeared in the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

Lightning Release: Lightning Stab!

Bang!

Bang!

It looked like something collided, and then something else fell to the ground.

After the smoke and dust cleared, the valley became completely quiet.

Shuichi his sprint and turned his head, Ringo Ameyuri had been violently torn in two.

Even more horrific than being cut in half at the waist, the upper and lower body were separated from the center of the abdomen, blood gushing out freely, the pain in the last few seconds before death was simply unparalleled.

As Shuichi walked over and picked up the longsword, the Nuibari, Ringo Ameyuri still wore a smile. "Truly... terrifying Lightning Release."

"If there's a next life, I'll definitely save the good things for the very beginning..."

Looking at the lifeless young female ninja, Shuichi inwardly praised the quality of the Kirigakure ninja; she was a worthy opponent.

Although the environment there is cold-blooded and cruel, there is a good side as well as a bad side; people just have different ways of doing things.

It's fine to let Obito continue causing trouble. Let's reduce our focus on the Land of Water in the future. The worse the other side is, the more peaceful the eastern part of the Land of Fire will be.

Shuichi put the longsword, Nuibari, into his Storage Scroll. His inventory now contained a lot more Chakra Metal. He definitely wouldn't return the Ninja Blade this time, since no one else had seen it anyway.

After cleaning up the battlefield, he skipped and hopped up the hillside, gazing into the distance with a relaxed smile. "Looks like I'll be back in the village soon!"
