The next second, his eyes rolled back, and his body crumpled to the ground like a puppet with its strings cut. He lost consciousness completely.
The second, the third, the fourth...
Uchiha Minamoto had merely given them a look.
Five well-trained Kumogakure ninja fell in unison, like wheat being harvested.
Their bodies still twitched slightly, a sign that their nerve signals had been thoroughly disrupted.
But their consciousness had already plunged into a dark abyss.
"What..."
The Kumogakure jonin stared fixedly at Uchiha Minamoto, shock and unwillingness flashing through his eyes.
Compared with his subordinates, his physique and willpower were clearly stronger, and he did not collapse immediately.
The Kumogakure jonin had never seen such bizarre ninjutsu.
No hand seals, no warning whatsoever-he could not even sense any chakra flowing.
What ability was this?
Genjutsu?
He wanted to demand an answer, but his mouth was already beyond his control. His vision began to blur, and his consciousness began to sink.
He lasted less than half a second longer than his subordinates.
Thud.
The sixth sound of a body hitting the ground rang out.
All six Kumogakure ninja had lost consciousness.
Not one was injured. Not one was dead.
Maruboshi Kosuke watched, dumbfounded.
The eternal genin had lived more than half his life. What hadn't he seen?
The Second Hokage had personally taught Maruboshi Kosuke water release ninjutsu, the Third Hokage had promoted him to jonin and likewise taught him ninjutsu (though Kosuke had not accepted), and the Fourth Hokage had even bandaged his wounds...
But Maruboshi Kosuke truly had never seen anything like the scene before him!
This young Uchiha was strong beyond all reason.
One look had dropped six Kumogakure ninja, including a powerful jonin.
Such strength had completely exceeded the limits of Maruboshi Kosuke's understanding of the profession
