"I would have done it even without you telling me!" Doron lived up to his reputation as the captain of the close-combat ninja squad; as soon as he was injured, more than a dozen ninjas rushed to his aid.
"Captain? How's he?"
"This guy's strength is unfathomable! Let's attack together!"
"A dozen of us will gang up on him!"
"Alright!" Doron wasn't one to be coy, and immediately agreed to the plan of surrounding Iwagakure to besiege Shiyu.
However, Shiyu still sneered. To him, it made no difference whether ten or a hundred Iwagakure of this caliber came.
"I just had a fierce battle, and my eye power hasn't recovered yet. Let me test the limits of my swordsmanship!" Shiyu more than a dozen Iwagakure swordsmen, Shigure charged bravely at them without saying a word.
Shiyu mastered the swordsmanship of the three major schools of Konoha, allowing him to develop a swordsmanship style that suited him perfectly. Under the attacks of Iwagakure, Shiyu moved around the enemy as if dancing.
Shiyu sometimes used the Body Flicker Technique to slash through the enemy's throat, and sometimes used the Flying Thunder God Technique to pierce the enemy's heart. After several such rapid rounds, Shiyu not only did not suffer any injuries, but also caused heavy losses to Iwagakure.
"This guy's swordsmanship has actually reached an unfathomable level?!"
"Konoha has produced such a powerful genius!?"
"Not only does he possess the ability to defeat the Four-Tails and the Five-Tails!? Now his swordsmanship is also so excellent!? Is he even human!?"
The Iwagakure melee ninjas felt it was extremely unfair. They were all very hardworking and talented, but compared to Shiyu, they felt ashamed of themselves.
"Doron, I'm not targeting you personally, I'm saying that all the Iwagakure swordsmen here are trash." Shiyu also spouted nonsense. In Shiyu's eyes, these people hadn't even grasped their own set of swordsmanship.
Even Doron, the captain of the Iwagakure melee unit, only combined swordsmanship with Nintaijutsu. If we're talking about swordsmanship alone, he's really no match for Shiyu.
"Damn it! Don't underestimate the Earth Will of Iwagakure!" Doron and the swordsmen launched another incessant barrage of attacks on Shiyu.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" Shiyu's speed increased, and the encirclement by the Iwagakure swordsmen did not play a significant role. After all, no matter how tight the encirclement was, Shiyu could easily escape using Flying Thunder God and Body Flicker Technique.
"Earth Release: Earth Spear!" Doron used Ninjutsu similar to Kakuzu's, hardening his hands and turning them black. Doron then used the moment of close combat to attack Shiyu.
"Hmph! Just a mere Earth Spear! Does he really think he's someone important?" Shiyu simply and crudely used his fist to strike at Doron's fist.
A surge of chakra was perfectly released into his fist, unleashing a fist imbued with terrifying power. The only difference was that this fist was also covered by a layer of extremely dense bone for protection.
"Bang!" Shiyu and Doron's fists collided, and then something unexpected happened to Doron.
Doron, who had never made a mistake before, suddenly showed an extremely painful expression.
"Ah!!" Doron screamed in agony.
Doron's arm was now completely gone, Shiyu's hands were covered in Doron's blood.
"Sorry, I used a little too much force and knocked your arm off." Shiyu's monstrous strength was enough to easily change the terrain, while Earth Style: Earth Spear was merely hardened and could only easily knock down a wall; the two were simply incomparable.
"Captain!" The Iwagakure members also lost their composure and rushed towards Shiyu in a swarm.
"Don't be impatient!" Kitsuchi was anxious, but there was nothing he could do. He himself was being forced to stay away by the Konoha Ninja.
Shiyu originally thought it would take more time to kill these intelligent melee ninjas, but now they are just a bunch of brutes, making them much easier to deal with.
Instead of charging directly at the ninjas, Shiyu ran in the opposite direction at an even faster speed.
"Damn it! Don't run!"
"We must avenge our captain!"
The enraged Iwagakure Ninja were determined to use their passion to kill Shiyu.
Shiyu ran even faster, quickly widening the distance, but unexpectedly, Iwagakure continued to relentlessly pursue him.
"Sorry, it's not my fault." Shiyu gathered chakra in his feet, and then with a whoosh, he charged back towards the Iwagakure like a cannonball.
The Iwagakure members lost their ability to make calm judgments, and thus decided to take up their weapons and fight Shiyu to the death.
Shiyu rushed in from afar at supersonic speed, like a gust of wind, and with each step she took, Shiyu speed increased once more.
Shiyu's right hand had transformed into an enormous and extremely sharp Bone Spear, and with each step Shiyu took, a wide range of bone spikes would sprout from the ground around him.
Despite Iwagakure discarding shuriken, Kunai, and Explosive Tag, none of this stopped Shiyu's powerful advance. Shiyu simply raised the Bone Spear in his hand and easily blocked these attacks.
"Da da da!" Shiyu finally charged in front of the Iwagakure Ninja, raising his Bone Spear arm and shouting, "Early Fern Dance - The Strongest Spear!!!"
The Bone Spear, formed from extremely dense bones, combined with Shiyu's monstrous strength, long-range propulsion, sensory abilities, and the Sharingan to lock onto the Iwagakure troops.
It could be said that the Shiyu that Iwagakure faced was like their nightmare.
"Ah!!" No matter how skilled the Iwagakure Ninja was with swordsmanship, they simply couldn't withstand such a powerful thrust.
Countless Iwagakure were pierced through Shiyu's thrusts.
In no time at all, the Iwagakure swordsmen who came to support Doron were directly killed by Shiyu's thrust.
"This guy! His destructive power is incredible!"
"We must find a way to stop him! Otherwise, our Iwagakure will surely be defeated!" Kitsuchi immediately issued the order.
"Receive!"
The ranged Ninjutsu combat units responded in unison, immediately gathered together, and began Hand Seals.
"Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall!" A large number of Iwagakure ninjas used Earth Release defensive ninjutsu together, and this time the Earth Flow Wall far surpassed the previous one in both size and mass.
They attempted to use this move to stop Shiyu and significantly weaken the power of Shiyu Bone Spear thrust.
But who is Shiyu? He is the possessor of the strongest bloodline!
He moved across the battlefield like a whirlwind, his body then crackling with blue lightning.
"Crackling!" Lightning began to flicker on Shiyu's body.
Indeed, Shiyu used the Lightning Style: Armor to further enhance his speed and defense; this is due to the Lightning Style: Armor and cell activation.
"Lightning Release: Bone Spear!!" An extremely powerful penetrating attack struck the Earth Flow Wall.
