After Xia Yan killed the first Sand Ninja in an instant, the other Sand Ninja reacted as well.
Someone suddenly let out a furious roar, and the entire Sunagakure force erupted.
Apart from the Anbu, who remained calm, everyone roared and charged madly toward Xia Yan!
Even Xia Yan had not quite figured out what was happening, but that did not stop him from acting.
His sensory perception instantly covered everything around him, and the red eye shadow of Intermediate Sage Mode appeared on his face once again.
In an instant, everything on the battlefield seemed to be within his grasp. He seemed able to detect every movement of every ninja within a dozen or so meters of him.
Although it was still seriously lacking in detail, that was already more than enough for him!
He dodged a Sand Ninja's thrusting kunai at incredible speed, then swung his ninja blade, which glowed with blue chakra.
He did not need to figure out exactly where his blade struck. That sort of meticulous precision was the Uchiha Clan's specialty.
All he needed was to land a hit with this ninja blade coated in water release chakra pushed to its utmost!
Sure enough, blood sprayed from the ninja he struck, who fell straight to the ground and could not get back up.
Turning slightly, Xia Yan moved like a streak of light trailing an afterimage, narrowly slipping past a stab from behind.
Then he swept his ninja blade sideways, instantly killing the Sand Ninja behind him.
He raised his left hand slightly to form a one-handed seal, then abruptly redirected his blade into a forward thrust midway through its sweep.
The blue-glowing ninja blade immediately pierced a Sand Ninja, and the Substitution Technique he had prepared quietly activated at that very moment.
Squelch!
