After placing the three Ninja Blade into the sealing scroll, Didaze quickly ascended into the air, soon reaching an altitude of ten thousand meters!
After the Third Mizukage sheathed his remaining four Ninja Blade, he looked at Didaze in the sky and felt an urge to curse him.
He had never seen such a despicable style of play; he was truly disgusted by Didaze!
" My Chakra is running low..."
Didaze Chakra his Chakra and found that he only had about 20-30% left.
"Alright, let's call it a day while we're ahead. We can go back and prepare for war."
Didaze didn't intend to use up all his Chakra, as that would be too dangerous if he encountered an enemy.
Although he's unlikely to encounter enemies while in the sky, he still needs to reserve some for safety.
"Um?"
Just as Didaze was about to leave, one of his scrolls began to stir.
It was his scroll containing the Jashin Statue!
As soon as the Jashin Statue Jashin Statue appeared, wisps of black energy surged towards it from below.
"Five thousand six hundred and seventy-four people, reward!"
After the Jashin Statue finished absorbing the energy, Didaze suddenly heard a huge voice in his mind.
Then, a stream of pure black energy rushed towards Didaze!
" Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"
Didaze's mind went on high alert as he looked at the black aura!
He could sense the pure power contained within the black aura, but he did not want to accept the Jashin's gift.
He had previously tried to make the Jashin Statue recognize him as its master because he wanted to be the Jashin's master, but now he felt that if he accepted this dark energy, he might become the Jashin's servant.
"Snort..."
After Didaze blew away the black mist, an unpleasant snort seemed to appear in Didaze's mind again, and then the Jashin Statue returned to normal and stopped moving.
"This thing is really weird..."
Didaze looked at the Jashin Statue with apprehension.
It was then placed back into the sealing scroll.
However, this time Didaze had a better idea. He planned to use Sealing Jutsu to completely seal the scroll after arriving at Iwagakure.
Below
"Lord Mizukage!"
Yagura led the clan leaders to the side of the Third Mizukage.
Upon arriving, he saw the Third Mizukage, who was holding four Ninja Blade and whose face was pitch black.
"Lord Mizukage... could it be...?"
Yagura looked around and realized that none of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist had been seen.
The Third Mizukage, however, possessed four Ninja Blade.
"Go find new heirs to these four Ninja Blade. Also, contact the Kumogakure; I'm going to start a war!"
The Third Mizukage's words were not angry, but rather very calm.
But Yagura sensed the Third Mizukage's deep-seated anger!
"Yes... Mizukage!"
Yagura didn't dare ask why there were only four, because he saw all seven people disappear, and then there was another huge explosion.
Yagura believes Didaze must have stolen three of them, leaving the remaining four as the total.
Meanwhile, Kirigakure sent people to contact Kumogakure overnight, but Didaze was unaware of all this.
He's already on his way back to the village.
" The Blast Sword can be used by the Explosion Release Corps, the remaining two..."
Didaze didn't plan to use the Blast Sword himself, although he was sure Blast Sword would be effective, but not as good as the pure melee combat skills of Hunter and the others.
Moreover, Didaze mostly relies on ranged combat, so wielding the Blast Sword would be a waste.
"Forget it, I'll think about it when we get to the village."
Didaze knew that there was no point in thinking about it anymore, so he might as well go back to the village and let the right people try.
Iwagakure
"You're finally back."
Didaze stretched, then slowly lowered the Giant Dragon.
" Lord Didaze, please come in!"
The gatekeeper greeted Didaze respectfully and then quickly opened the gate.
"Um."
Didaze nodded and then entered Iwagakure.
Didaze headed straight for the Sealing Squad, since these three Ninja Blade also possessed summoning abilities.
Didaze can only take out his three Ninja Blade after Karen has dealt with the summoning attribute.
If the summoning problem isn't resolved, Didaze might be summoned back by Kirigakure the moment he's taken out.
Sealing Squad
" Karen!"
Didaze walked straight into the Sealing Squad and then called out to them.
"Huh? Didaze, what are you doing here? Nanako hasn't gotten out of school yet!"
Karen slowly walked out, looking at Didaze with a surprised expression.
"I didn't come to see Nanako, I came to see you!"
Didaze threw down the sealing scroll and smiled at Karen.
"A sealing scroll? This... this is Ninja Blade from Kirigakure??"
Karen walked up to the sealing scroll, glanced at it, and exclaimed in shock.
What on earth did Didaze go about? How did the Kirigakure's Ninja Blade end up in his hands?
"There are only three, but since the Ninja Blade of Kirigakure can be summoned, I've come to you to resolve this."
Didaze explained why he had come to find Karen.
" Summoning Technique?"
"The A-rank Sealing Jutsu that Konoha taught us last time happened to have one specifically designed to counter this!"
Karen pondered for a moment and then smiled.
"You mean the Contract Seal? You've already learned it?"
Didaze looked at Karen with some surprise.
"I've learned it."
Karen nodded.
That's great!
Didaze laughed even harder.
His original idea was to simply seal the connection with a few B-rank Ninjutsu, but now that there's Contract Seal, things are much easier.
The Contract Seal can sever the summoning of Ninja Blade, and it is much more secure than a B-rank Sealing Jutsu.
"Please stand to the side. I'm still a bit awkward around here, so please don't make any noise and disturb me."
Karen picked up the sealing scroll and then spoke to Didaze.
"Good!"
Didaze pulled up a stool and sat down, watching Karen release the Contract Seal.
" Contract Seal!"
After forming several hand seals, Karen slapped her hand directly onto one of the Ninja Blade!
"This Ninja Blade can be taken out now; the seal is complete."
Karen wiped the sweat from her brow; she was nervous.
After all, this was the first time she had truly used the Contract Seal on a real seal, and any failure could cause the Ninja Blade to come out of the sealing scroll.
" Hiramekarei?"
Didaze retrieved the first Ninja Blade that had been successfully sealed.
Karen wiped the sweat from her brow and continued the sealing process.
Soon, under Karen's Sealing Jutsu, the Summoning Technique of the other two Ninja Blade was also successfully blocked.
Meanwhile, the Third Mizukage, far away in Kirigakure, also felt that his connection with his Ninja Blade had been completely severed, and sighed helplessly.
He still held onto hope that Didaze would not understand these things and that he could re-summon the Ninja Blade.
But now there's absolutely no hope.
"I hope I can get some good news from Kumogakure... This war is unavoidable!"
The Third Mizukage's eyes flashed with a fierce light.
