Sharp edge.
Extremely explosive attack.
Kurenai Yuhi Kunai inserted it without any hesitation.
"Hmph! Stupid!"
However, Raiga Kurosuki was not surprised at all.
Instead, the ferocious look on his face became more intense.
A quick turn around.
"Keng!"
Kunai blocked directly and easily.
"Raiga."
This was followed by another flash of red light.
"Fantasy..."
This time there is no waiting for Kurenai Yuhi Hand Seals.
"Go to hell, woman!"
Raiga's right hand swept over Thunder Blade.
When there is no time to defend.
Kurenai Yuhi can only be a sudden contraction of the abdomen and retreat.
"Stab it!"
However, the extremely sharp and extremely long Thunder Blade still cut an extremely terrifying wound from Kurenai Yuhi's abdomen.
A heartbreaking pain came over me.
And then there was the thunder and lightning that came in.
"Huh!?"
My whole body was shaken and paralyzed.
"Lightning Style--"
The next moment.
Also before Raiga uses Lightning Style.
Kurenai Yuhi forcibly broke away from Thunder Blade's suppression.
Kurenai Yuhi who wants to retreat quickly and then open up a position.
It's a pity.
Raiga will not let Kurenai Yuhi pull away so easily this time.
A quick turn around.
His right leg suddenly kicked out.
"Peng!"
Kicked Kurenai Yuhi hard on the chest.
"Wow!"
Continuous heavy blows.
Kurenai Yuhi flew backwards fiercely.
"Boom!"
It fell hard to the ground.
Along with the rising dust, Kurenai Yuhi's throat felt sweet, and the uncontrollable blood spurted out.
Big drops of sweat streaked across Kurenai Yuhi's forehead.
That trembling all over my body.
A body that cannot move easily.
"This is a funeral for you!"
The next moment.
The Raiga that swooped in.
The cold breath.
An extremely sharp blade.
So close.
Kurenai Yuhi's pupils suddenly shrank, and he wanted to get out of the way, but was unable to move in the first place.
"Teacher Hong!"
Not far away, from the corner of his eye, he saw his teacher sinking into death, Ya and Shino, their expressions changed.
"Red!"
Just forced Zabuza back.
Kakashi who wants to rescue.
"Hmph! Don't run away! Kakashi!"
However, Zabuza, who was following him like a shadow, came up with force again.
Kakashi which cannot be taken out at all.
And the three Genin who were at a disadvantage were also unable to be rescued.
"Go to hell!"
The cold light and shadow are getting closer and closer.
Feel the breath of death coming towards your face.
"Ah, is that the end of it..."
Many phantoms flashed by at that moment.
A helpless smile appeared on Kurenai Yuhi's face.
Although as Ninja, this was a scene I had anticipated a long time ago.
But when the reality comes.
"I still feel scared..."
Kurenai Yuhi slowly closed his eyes, waiting for the approaching blade.
The next moment!
A golden figure leaped forward.
"Huh!?"
"Keng!"
The expected blade never came.
Only a fierce and harsh metal collision was heard.
Accompanied by the furious shouts of Raiga Kurosuki.
"Little devil with weak soul!"
"Peng!"
Between backhands.
There was another dull sound.
Immediately afterwards.
There was a sound as a heavy object flew backwards.
Kurenai Yuhi opened his eyes in shock.
He was not killed, but another figure appeared in front of him.
"Naruto?"
Kurenai Yuhi seemed a little unsure and said in a low voice.
The person coming is not someone else.
Naruto, who hurried slowly and hurriedly, arrived at the battlefield in the shortest possible time. Even though Kurenai Yuhi and Raiga seemed to have been fighting for a long time.
However, by the time Kurenai Yuhi arrived, and now Naruto arrived.
The time gap between before and after is less than two minutes.
It's this fatal two-minute interval.
Kurenai Yuhi almost died here, which is enough to prove the strength gap between Raiga and Kurenai Yuhi. Of course, a considerable part of it is the huge disadvantage caused by the lack of intelligence. If the intelligence information is equal, even if Kurenai Yuhi is no match for Raiga, he will not fall into death in just two or three minutes.
This is not the period in the later stages of Hokage when bug characters appeared that destroyed the world and ignored any objective conditions. In the early stages of Hokage, the level of combat power was relatively balanced and reasonable. The existence of intelligence information, not to mention Jonin, even the battle between Kage Level also had a very profound impact.
"Teacher Hong, leave this to me. You can go aside and rest first."
Naruto's eyes were still fixed on Raiga not far away. His energy was firmly locked on this first-generation Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. He turned his head slightly and said softly to Kurenai Yuhi, who was seriously injured, but as long as he was treated in time, at least his life was not in danger.
Not far away, Kakashi and others also breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Naruto rescue Kurenai Yuhi in time, and then concentrated on dealing with the opponents in front of them again, especially Kakashi who knew very well that he had eliminated Zabuza earlier.
This time the crisis can be truly resolved!
Bai, who also noticed the appearance of Naruto, also showed a complicated expression on his face hidden under the mask, which was immediately replaced by a determined look, still decisively flying towards Sasuke in front of him.
"Well, Naruto, you have to be careful. That Ninja is the first generation Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. That knife is Thunder Blade that can guide Lightning Style. The bag behind him should be carrying a perception type Ninja, which is extremely sensitive to the flow of chakra. You must pay attention to this!"
Even though he knows that the risk is absolutely high for a Genin like Naruto to face a Jonin like Raiga Kurosuki, Kurenai Yuhi also understands that he has completely lost his combat effectiveness, especially with such a amount of bleeding. If he does not deal with it immediately, he will be injured. The situation deteriorated, and he might even die from excessive bleeding. Kurenai Yuhi could only quickly tell Naruto all the information he knew, and then immediately stepped aside, not only to deal with his wounds, to recover as much combat power as possible, but also to not affect Naruto's performance here.
"Well, I understand, Teacher Hong!"
Naruto nodded slightly, staring in the direction with an extremely solemn look in his pupils.
As Naruto who is familiar with the plot of the original work, how could he not recognize the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist and Thunder Blade holder in front of him - Raiga Kurosuki.
In the original work.
This one of the Daimyo Dingding Seven Ninja Swordsmen was also defeated by me in the end (although he probably committed suicide in the end.)
But the most famous one is undoubtedly Third Shinobi World War.
He and six other Seven Ninja Swordsmen besieged Might Duy, but four of them were killed and the remaining three fled.
Raiga Kurosuki.
Definitely not a particularly scary Ninja.
But based on the general standards of Jonin.
"He is really a very suitable opponent!"
Naruto's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a faint hint of fierce momentum all over his body.
"One by one! One by one! They interrupt my uncle's funeral one after another! Hun Dan! Hun Dan! You all should die! Little devil! This time! I will cut you into pieces!!!"
Not far away, Raiga Kurosuki, who was forced to retreat due to Naruto's sudden attack, was also completely in a state of madness at this moment.
