This also leads to a flaw in this type of weapon, which, while powerful, is prone to breaking if used poorly by someone.
But the Ama-no-Ohabari are different.
This is the Kusanagi Sword, which has been passed down for a long time. In terms of Chakra conductivity, it is not as good as weapons made of pure Chakra Metal, such as the Thunder God Blade and the White Fang Short Sword, but in terms of hardness, it is the best in the ninja Ninja World. Almost nothing can destroy it.
Meikyō now possesses the Ama-no-Ohabari, whose overall value is comparable to the Thunder God Blade, as well as the Demon Slayer Blade. In terms of weapons, she is already quite capable.
Moreover, the Thunder God Blade is a relic of the Second Hokage, possessing considerable political and emotional significance, and Meikyō would never touch it under any circumstances.
"In that case, Senior Hanzo, we'll take our leave now. You probably don't mind if we dispose of Aoi Rokushō right here, do you?"
"Of course I mind. You should drag him out of Amegakure before dealing with him, so I don't have to send people to clean up the mess."
Hanzo glanced at Aoi Rokushō indifferently, then walked away without looking back.
Meikyō and the other two then escorted Aoi Rokushō out of the gates of Amegakure.
"Is there anything else you'd like to say?"
Meikyō gestured for Inuzuka Ryo to remove the tattered cloth from Aoi Rokushō's mouth.
"Could you... could you please let me go..."
"Is that all you have to say in your last words? Never mind, you shouldn't have been given the chance to say your last words in the first place."
Meikyō slowly drew out the Ama-no-Ohabari from her back.
Seeing that there was no hope of begging for mercy, Aoi Rokushō quickly turned her previous pleas for mercy into curses.
"In my next life, I hope I can be reborn into a better family and not be a ninja."
The silky Ama-no-Ohabari brushed smoothly across the neck of the Aoi Rokushō.
Meikyō and the others need to do is bring back the Thunder God Blade and Aoi Rokushō's head.
At the same time.
Inside an underground exchange.
"I heard you guys are willing to take on any kind of mission?"
A Root ninja, dressed entirely in black robes and wearing a mask, asked several ninjas dressed in various colors in front of him.
"We don't just take on any mission, but we are willing and able to kill anyone. Even if you want to kill the Kage of those ninja villages, as long as the price is right and the person has left their village, our Xuanyuan Group is not in a position to refuse."
A white-haired ninja in red replied to the Root ninja with a mocking expression.
"I want you to kill an Uchiha with Three-Tomoe Sharingan and bring the Sharingan back."
The Root ninjas revealed Danzo's request.
Danzo's plan was to appear as Konoha Meikyō save Uchiha Meikyō when he was in danger, and at the same time use his past relationship with Kagami Uchiha Meikyō.
Even if the plan fails and the rescue is not achieved, Danzo will still gain a pair of Sharingan with Three Tomoe, so he will not lose out no matter what.
"Uchiha with Three-Tomoe Sharingan? That's not cheap; it'll cost at least this much."
"Thirteen million taels? Sure."
The Root ninja nodded in satisfaction.
A price of over ten million to twenty million taels is roughly the price of an ordinary Jonin.
"No, we're doing this for you while facing the danger of being hunted down by the powerful Uchiha Clan and Konoha Ninja. Thirteen million ryo is far from enough; it would take at least thirty million ryo. But don't worry, we're professional and will clean things up thoroughly. Even Konoha won't be able to trace it back to you."
The red-clad ninja's face radiated confidence.
The seven members of the Xuanyuan Group formed a mercenary organization whose reputation in the Underworld was no less than that of the legendary bounty hunter Kakuzu.
"Okay, the target of the mission is called Uchiha Meikyō, and he will cross the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Rain within the next few days."
The Root ninja took out a picture of a Meikyō.
"Don't worry, but we need to collect half of the deposit first."
"Can."
The red-haired ninja looked at the photo and a wicked smile appeared on his face.
The photos also disappeared silently, as if they had been erased from the world by an invisible hand.
Night falls.
The border between the two countries of Yu and Huo, in the dense forests of the high mountains.
"I never expected that an S-rank mission could be completed so easily. It has to be you, Meikyō, who was able to fight against a big shot like Hanzo without being at a disadvantage. I wonder if I will ever have the same strength as you in this lifetime."
After leaving Amegakure, Inuzuka Ryo never stopped talking.
He was genuinely surprised by Meikyō's current strength.
This is similar to a classmate who graduated at the same time and joined the same company. At first, both of you were at the entry level, but a few years later you found that the other person had actually risen to the same level as the company's senior management or even the chairman.
"It's nothing, Hanzo hasn't used his full strength yet."
Meikyō shook her head slightly.
Of course, Meikyō himself did not use his full strength or the power of his Mangekyō Sharingan.
But at least, Meikyō has confirmed that his strength is now on Hanzo, who is at the top of the Ninja World.
"Ah? Is that so? But the scale of your fight was already astonishing. With Nami and my strength, I'm afraid we don't even have the ability to intervene in such a battle."
Inuzuka Ryo roughly estimated in his mind what he thought was Meikyō's strength.
Inuzuka Ryo still found it hard to believe that Meikyō possessed the strength of Five Kage, but the power Meikyō displayed when fighting Hanzo far exceeded the level of an ordinary Jonin.
Therefore, in Inuzuka Ryo's view, Meikyō's current strength is probably similar to that of Inuzuka Gaku, or even the current head of the Inuzuka Clan, Elite Jonin in the clan.
"Watch out, there's movement ahead..."
Meikyō suddenly reached out and stopped her two companions, placing her hand on the hilt of the Ama-no-Ohabari behind her back.
With a blink of an eye, he activated the Mangekyō Sharingan.
Everything seemed normal in the air in the distance, but with Meikyō -Mangekyo level vision, one could detect the tiny flying insects, each about the size of a cell.
"Nami, do you know any insect-controlling ninjas who can manipulate insects at the cellular level?"
"Insects at the cellular level? There is a Jonin in the Aburame Clan named Aburame Shikuroo who is said to be researching nanoscale poisonous insects, but he has not yet seen any results. Apart from him... perhaps only the Sarugami Clan, which appeared in history, has the ability to manipulate these insects that are invisible to the naked eye. However, the Sarugami Clan is almost extinct, and the remaining members have formed a mercenary organization called the Sarugami Group."
