"Hōzuki Chiba!"
Jinin Akebino's eyes nearly split with rage. In just a few short minutes, they had lost another man!
Suikazan Fuguki's expression also turned extremely ugly. Brandishing Samehada, he roared:
"Bastard! I'll suck your chakra dry!"
Samehada seemed to sense its master's fury as well, becoming unusually active as every barb on its blade stood erect.
Meanwhile, Juzo Biwa and Raiga Kurosuki, whom Might Duy was risking his life to hold back, began to consider retreating when they saw two more companions die in the blink of an eye.
This newly arrived boy from Konoha was absurdly powerful, and his abilities were bizarre and unpredictable. His taijutsu, strength, speed, defense, and even his ability to control water and fire were all exceptional. He was practically a monster!

Green energy vapor rose around him, mingling with the Azure Dragon's ferocious presence, making him resemble a god of war from ancient times.
"Who's next?"
Suikazan Fuguki looked at Hōzuki Chiba lying motionless on the ground, then glanced at the bodies of Munashi Jinpachi and Kushimaru Kuriarare nearby.

Before his words had even faded, he hurled the enormous Samehada straight at Lin Ze!
Samehada shared an understanding with Suikazan Fuguki. Though
