"You're really good at killing people." Young Bro said with genuine emotion.

Being a ninja inevitably involved killing. Young Bro, the Sannin, and those who had experienced the Ninja World War had all killed more people than Jiang Feng.

Why was Jiang Feng known for being good at killing?

Because he killed quickly and with aesthetic beauty.

His style and imposing aura, completely different from others in the ninja world, gave Jiang Feng's killings a rich artistic and imposing aura.

Even if he didn't think so himself, to others, Jiang Feng's killings were like a solemn, sacred ritual.

Jiang Feng shook his head, "Being good at killing is just a misunderstanding others have of me. It's not what I'm best at."

"Oh, then what is it? Making friends, or making money?"

Making friends, making money, and killing. According to popular rumors, Uchiha Jiang Feng was best at these three things. Since it wasn't killing, it had to be making friends or making money.

"You'll know soon enough."

Jiang Feng smiled mysteriously, suddenly gathered his strength, and let out a piercing, long cry that sounded like a dragon or a tiger in one direction. The sound waves spread out like lightning and wind.

Lion's Roar, also known as Lion's Roar Technique, was classified as one of Shaolin's Seventy-Two Arts in some novels and was the most common sonic attack in wuxia novels.

Similar sonic attacks existed in the ninja world. For example, Tayuya of Otogakure in the original story was very skilled in sonic attacks.

A long time ago, Jiang Feng had obtained a template for being skilled in Lion's Roar. Considering it was a rather cool martial art, Jiang Feng had also put in a lot of effort to practice it for a period. He had even specifically consulted Orochimaru and discussed relevant experiences with him.

The Lion's Roar Jiang Feng was currently using had already integrated the ninja world's indigenous sonic attacks and genjutsu, evolving to version 5.6.

A bizarre, resonant dragon's roar and tiger's roar exploded in their ears. More than ten Kumogakure experts, including three or four Jonin, felt unbearable pain in their heads and were disoriented. A seemingly inescapable encirclement suddenly had a gap opened.

"Go quickly!"

Jiang Feng struck out with his palm. His powerful and unparalleled palm force landed on Kurenai Yuhi, Asuma, and the girl Kurenai Yuhi, transforming into a continuous stream of gentle breeze that sent the three of them out of the encirclement.

"Don't worry about them, focus all your efforts on killing Tsunade and Uchiha Jiang Feng!" Young Bro said as if facing a great enemy, turning into a streak of lightning and punching towards Jiang Feng.

He had been careless after all.

The net he thought was unbreakable was instantly broken through by Jiang Feng's roar.

Although it was fleeting, Bro knew that if Jiang Feng had wanted to escape, he could have seized that opportunity to break out of the encirclement.

But he didn't escape. Instead, he threw his three companions out, just like the Second Hokage Tobirama Senju who had stayed behind alone to cover their retreat...

Oh, not alone. Tsunade was still there.

It was precisely because Tsunade wasn't thrown out that Young Bro made a decision in an instant: to surround and kill Jiang Feng and Tsunade with all their might.

If these two could be killed, even if a few escaped, this meticulously planned ambush would still be considered a great success.

Of course, while they said they would surround and kill Jiang Feng and Tsunade with all their might, the Kumogakure forces still dispatched two or three Jonin and four or five Genin to pursue Kurenai Yuhi and the others.

Without Young Bro's orders, even more people would have been dispatched.

Before even fully landing, Kurenai Yuhi utilized the ninja world version of the Body Flicker Technique, developed and taught by Jiang Feng, to exert force in mid-air. She scooped up a young man with each arm and fled rapidly, not looking back.

As a veteran, Kurenai Yuhi wouldn't act on impulse. The most important thing right now was to relay the news of Kumogakure's impending large-scale attack back to Konoha.

The Girl, Kurenai Yuhi, was held under her father's arm, tears streaming down her face. While the trope of a hero saving a damsel and the hero covering the retreat was cliché, it was genuinely moving.

Jiang Feng merely glanced at Kurenai Yuhi before shifting his attention. His captain and future father-in-law hadn't disappointed him; he was running away decisively.

With Kurenai Yuhi's greatly increased running speed due to practicing the ninja world version of the Body Flicker Technique, the possibility of successfully escaping was quite high. This way, he could also focus entirely on fighting the enemy.

"You're surrounded, yet you're still worried about the lives of others?

No wonder you, a Uchiha, are so highly regarded by the Third Hokage!"

In an instant, Young Bro's fist had arrived before Jiang Feng.

Without directly blocking the opponent's fist, Jiang Feng wrapped an arm around Tsunade's slender and soft waist beside him and used the 6.3 version of [Moon-Treading Fragrance] he had developed. In an instant, he retreated to the other side of the encirclement and then decisively pointed towards the encirclement.

Twenty-Four Solar Terms Shocking Spirit Finger, Great Heat!

Even though he had only obtained this finger technique not long ago, the scholarly Jiang Feng had still developed it to an incredible extent, integrating it with genjutsu, ninjutsu, and nintaijutsu, and making different improvements based on the characteristics of each finger technique.

For example, the move Awakening of Insects incorporated Wind Release. Jiang Feng was already proficient in Wind Release, so this move was the strongest and fastest in terms of single-target damage among the twenty-four finger techniques.

In addition, some of the spring finger techniques incorporated Earth Release, the autumn finger techniques incorporated Fire Release and Wind Release, and the winter finger techniques incorporated Water Release and Bright Jade Technique Internal Energy.

Jiang Feng didn't understand Ice Release, but the characteristics of the cold ice true qi contained within the Bright Jade Technique could perfectly substitute for Ice Release.

What was integrated with the summer finger techniques was, naturally, Fire Release. Great Heat was the hottest solar term among the twenty-four, so this finger technique was naturally more ferocious.

A violent, scorching finger force was unleashed. Initially, it was just a thin line, but under everyone's gaze, it grew with the wind. By the time it shot before the Cloud Shinobi, it had already transformed into a horizontal pillar of fire, three to four meters in diameter, engulfing all the Cloud Shinobi in its path.

With a large attack range, the power against single targets would naturally be reduced. Most of the Kumogakure ninjas had also practiced nintaijutsu and had high defensive capabilities.

This move didn't kill too many Cloud Shinobi, but it did cause them considerable trouble.

〖Flowers falling from the sky, lotuses springing from the earth, congratulations to the host for defeating a contemporary top-tier expert, specially rewarding the host with the top-tier expert [Sudden Shower · Stunning Shot] template〗

"Retreat! Everyone whose nintaijutsu is not refined, retreat!"

Young Bro's face was grim as he gave orders. At the same time, he charged towards Jiang Feng again, his "respect" for Jiang Feng having already exploded.

Outsiders watch the excitement, insiders see the skill. Only he understood how strong Uchiha Jiang Feng's power was and how great the threat to Kumogakure was.

Jiang Feng's movement speed just now was almost comparable to his own. Even more terrifying was that after creating distance, the opponent unleashed a killing blow without any hesitation, incredibly smoothly.

Most Jonin could use the Body Flicker Technique, but the vast majority of Jonin only used it for evasion and escape. Very few people could integrate the Body Flicker Technique into their combat rhythm.

This was because the Body Flicker Technique placed a heavy burden on the body. Its essence was to push the body beyond human limits, erupting with unimaginable speed in a short period.

Not only would it damage the body, but due to inertia, it would also create a significant "hesitation" upon stopping, which in gaming terms would be called "after-swing."

Those who could integrate the Body Flicker Technique into combat without any after-swing were all Taijutsu masters with powerful physiques and strong recovery abilities, such as Lao Da himself, Tsunade...

Clearly, Uchiha Jiang Feng was also such a person.

A powerful physique, fast speed, and sufficient attack power. Against ninjas who were not fast enough and not skilled in Taijutsu, as long as one could grasp the rhythm, they could slaughter them.

Therefore, he was truly skilled at killing people.
