In a sparring duel, no matter who the opponent was, they deserved at least a basic measure of respect.
This was a direct insult from Kawabata Nozomu.
"Master Kawabata, aren't you being a little too arrogant?"
Chisong Xue's expression immediately darkened at the sight.
No matter what, he was still one of the Grass Shadow's top generals, no weaker than Shui Daiyi. He was also an elite chunin skilled in Wind Release, renowned for his speed and known as Windpiercer!
No matter how formidable Kawabata Nozomu was, he was still only a samurai!
Samurai had long since declined and no longer possessed their former glory!
"Is that so?"
Kawabata Nozomu smiled faintly, utterly unconcerned.
At his level, there was no longer any need to care about such things.
"Excuse me!"
Chisong Xue clasped his fists and bowed. Then chakra erupted from his body, and he transformed into a wild gale as he charged forward!
Wind-natured ninja were already rare. When he unleashed his chakra and combined it with Wind Release, he truly resembled a gust of wind blowing toward Kawabata Nozomu!
Swift as thunder, fierce as the wind, shapeless and traceless.
Everyone's vision blurred, and Chisong Xue was already behind Kawabata Nozomu, a kunai raised sideways!
He was incredibly fast, like a ghost!
Whoosh!
But even faster was the burst of dazzling blade light that suddenly erupted from Kawabata Nozomu. The flash vanished in an instant, and Kawabata Nozomu remained standing where he was, as though he had not moved at all.
Yet just as Chisong Xue reached behind Kawabata Nozomu, his movements abruptly froze!
Then his face filled with horror, his eyes bloodshot!
A line of blood burst across his face. Immediately afterward, his entire body split apart!
He had actually been dismembered!
He died a brutal death!
