Hyuga Sho did not even look at the arrow shot toward him as a warning.
Instead, he accelerated directly toward the four samurai.
"Stop—!"
Before they could finish their warning...
Hyuga Sho appeared right in front of them.
Hyuga Sho was simply too fast.
"Gentle Fist..."
The force of the Gentle Fist Style surged outward.
Its destructive power was roughly at the Chunin level.
A blue Chakra vortex exploded, making the samurai's body tremble slightly.
The metallic Samurai Armor directly blocked the Gentle Fist Style.
"Hmm... not bad. Just like the intelligence said..."
Hyuga Sho muttered.
One of the biggest differences between the samurai of the Land of Iron and ninja...
Was defense.
In past wars, generally speaking,
ninja killed by Kunai and Shuriken made up at least fifty percent of all casualties.
It could be said that
Kunai and Shuriken were extremely efficient killing weapons.
But...
When these weapons encountered the samurai of the Land of Iron, they became completely ineffective.
Because the hardness of their armor far exceeded that of mass-produced rigid weapons like Kunai and Shuriken.
Likewise,
the Gentle Fist of the Hyuga Clan could not penetrate the "Samurai Armor," a steel "physical object" containing not the slightest bit of Chakra.
It was just like how the Gentle Fist could not penetrate the "Tsuchigumo Clan's Sticky Gold Armor" or the "Kaguya Clan's Shikotsumyaku."
Suppose the battle took place in a narrow space.
If a ninja from the Hyuga Clan encountered a group of samurai,
the final outcome would be a one-sided defeat for the Hyuga ninja.
No...
Even ordinary ninja were no match for samurai of the same level in terms of combat power.
Of course, this excluded the high-end combatants.
Starting from Special Jonin, the destructive power of the techniques mastered by ninja began to rise
