Setting Out for the Land of Rice
"So strong!" The Kirigakure Ninja was shocked. The ninja in front of him was not even in the same league as the ninja from before.
The Water Style: Water Severing Wave was extremely fast, instantly piercing through the bodies of several Kirigakure Ninja. After piercing through, the Water Style: Water Severing Wave exploded directly inside the Kirigakure Ninja's bodies.
Then, the unfortunate Kirigakure Ninja was sliced to pieces by the exploding Water Style: Water Severing Wave. Before the surrounding ninjas could react, the Water Style: Water Severing Wave exploded into the crowd again, piercing through the bodies of those Kirigakure Ninja.
"What kind of ninjutsu is this? Water Release is terrifying to this extent!?"
"What terrifying Water Release! Even the Mizukage doesn't possess such terrifying Water Release power!"
"Retreat immediately!"
The Kirigakure Ninja Squad wasn't stupid; as soon as they saw that Shiyu was stronger than they had imagined, they immediately turned and ran.
"Teacher Shiyu!" Kakashi exclaimed in disbelief.
"The Kirigakure has already escaped. We don't need to chase after them, right?" Kakashi asked.
"No need, because they are already dead."
Shiyu said calmly, "Water Release: Water Style: Water Severing Rush Wave!"
Shiyu unleashed another Water- Water Style: Water Severing Wave, but this time, it didn't explode; however, its power and size had increased considerably.
Although it was only the size of a water pipe when it came out of Shiyu's mouth, it had grown to the size of a cylinder by the time the Water Style: Water Severing Rush Wave caught up with Kirigakure.
Water Style: Water Severing Rush Wave rely primarily on their powerful impact force, with penetrating power being secondary. Therefore, they are very useful when dealing with fleeing enemies.
"Ah!!!" After being hit by Shiyu's Water Style: Water Severing Rush Wave, the Kirigakure Ninja suffered tremendous impact damage. Most of Kirigakure were directly blown away by the force of the water flow, and they fell to the ground and died instantly.
A few Kirigakure Ninja, despite the urgency, remained calm and used various methods to deflect the force, stabilizing their bodies.
"Well done! I hope you can defend against this move!" Shiyu then Body Flicker Technique appeared in front of these people, and the Kirigakure's expressions changed drastically once again.
"Water Release: Water Style: Water Severing Consecutive Waves!" Shiyu began to unleash Water Style: Water Severing Wave one after another. The original Water Style: Water Severing Wave were continuous Water Release with cutting and penetrating power, while Shiyu's Water Style: Water Severing Consecutive Waves were fired one after another like bullets. However, since they were fired one at a time, the accuracy was naturally greatly improved.
Some Kirigakure Ninja used Water Style: Water Wall for defense, some used Earth Style: Earth Style Wall for defense, some did not defend and simply turned and ran away, while others hid behind rocks and trees.
Because of his sensory abilities and Scouting Eye, Shiyu could clearly see the enemy's location. Because of his Sharingan's predictive abilities, his Water Style: Water Severing Consecutive Waves naturally attacked the locations where the group might go and where they were currently.
Because the Water Style: Water Severing Consecutive Waves is smaller, faster, and more accurate, and with the added benefit of Isobu's water-attribute ninjutsu, Shiyu easily broke through the Water Formation Wall, Earth Wall, rocks, and trees.
The Water Style: Water Severing Consecutive Waves from Shiyu's mouth pierced directly through the bodies of the Kirigakure Ninja.
The Kirigakure Ninja looked on in disbelief, but in the end they fell to the ground and died quietly.
Kakashi was already shocked; his attention was completely drawn to Shiyu.
Shiyu's Water Release techniques were so terrifying that Kakashi couldn't help but feel afraid.
"If it were me, facing Shiyu's move, what would I do?" Kakashi pondered.
After dealing with all the Kirigakure, Shiyu returned to Kakashi and Rin's side.
"Lin has fallen into a coma. She should be fine after she gets back and rests well," Shiyu said.
"Hmm, Lord Shiyu, aren't you going back to the village together?" Kakashi asked.
"No, I'm leaving Konoha." Shiyu told Kakashi directly about her choice. Kakashi was a smart man; he stared at Shiyu for a long time before finally saying only, "Take care."
"Alright, let's go now! Konoha's reinforcements should be arriving soon, I have to go." Shiyu also planned to leave.
Kakashi didn't know what to do either. He looked at Rin in his arms and finally ran towards Konoha.
To prevent Madara Uchiha and his group from plotting anything further, Shiyu stayed with Kakashi until they encountered reinforcements from Konoha, at Shiyu finally left.
"I don't know why, but I have a bad feeling. If Obito had appeared, I would still have him under control. But now that Obito is nowhere to be found, it's very strange."
"If Obito evil, he must have left something behind. I need to search around; I won't feel comfortable until I confirm this." Shiyu then began searching the corpses of Kirigakure members on the battlefield.
With Konoha's reinforcements arriving and the leaders of Kirigakure being nearly wiped out by Shiyu, the war between Konoha and Kirigakure was nearing its end, and there weren't many Kirigakure troops left in the vicinity.
Shiyu expanded his sensory range, carefully examining the corpses of the Kirigakure in the surrounding area, and finally discovered hundreds of Kirigakure corpses in one location.
"This place... there are hundreds of Kirigakure corpses. Was it Konoha or Obito who did it?" Shiyu walked in and saw that the ground around him was stained red with blood. Many Kirigakure were dead and unrecognizable, with various branches stuck in their bodies.
"Damn it. Obito has turned evil again. I know!" Shiyu realized.
"It must have been Black Zetsu who was spying on me. He saw that we had rescued Rin, so he lured Obito to another location and used someone else to replace Rin and Kakashi, putting on a show for Obito. Obito, filled with anger and hatred, awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan directly."
"Then they used Wood Release to slaughter all of these Kirigakure Ninja."
"So that's why Kagura Otsutsuki didn't stop me. It's because everything is still under the control of Black Zetsu and Madara Uchiha."
"Since things have come to this, there's no point in me doing anything now. So, let's return to the Land of Rice for the time being. The most important thing right now is to integrate all my bloodlines. Once I possess true Six Paths level power, dealing with Madara and the others will be a piece of cake."
After figuring things out, Shiyu stopped hesitating and immediately began using the Continuous Body Flicker Technique and Flying Thunder God to quickly move towards the Land of Rice.
When Shiyu left the Land of Rice, he entrusted his followers to Kakuzu. Now that they have adapted to life in the Land of Rice, Shiyu will surely demand from Konoha the benefits he originally gained from fighting with other ninja villages. That will be the source of funds for Shiyu to develop his organization.
"Of course, if Konoha still refuses, I will have no choice but to find a way to take back what belongs to me!" Shiyu said coldly.
