The world begins with refining skills

Chapter 341 Death Elegy! Wings of Freedom! (asking for monthly tickets)

"Step forward! Cut continuously!!!"

Maki Sheng's figure flashed past the three Kumogakure jonin like a ghost.

The black blade easily cut through the enemy's body.

Clang!

A slight sound.

Mu Sheng sheathed the knife with his backhand.

Several long and narrow knife cuts instantly appeared on the bodies of the three Kumogakure jonin.

Clang! Snap!
The ninja swords in the hands of the three Kumogakure jonin broke, and their sturdy ninja armor also became tattered. The fragments detached from their bodies and fell to the ground.

"What a quick knife!"

A Cloud Village jonin uttered a few words with difficulty before his body shattered into a pile of pieces along the wound.

What was even more surprising was that there was no blood flowing out of the cuts on the body parts. Instead, they were charred black and scattered with ashes.

As the three Kumogakure jonin were eliminated by Makisho, the pressure on the Ino-Shika-Cho trio was suddenly reduced.

"It's Kanhara Masaru!"

"Such a fast body-flickering technique! Such a precise swordsmanship! Such a powerful fire escape technique!"

Nara Shikaku watched as Maki Sheng killed three Hidden Cloud Ninja jonin with just a few sword strikes, and couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

This unstoppable knife technique reminded him of the white-haired man who also used a knife.

The opponent was the same. Every time at the most critical moment, he could use his ninja sword to carve out a victory.

"We can't let a child outdo us! Haiyi! Dingzuo!"

Nara Shikaku's blood was burning with enthusiasm for the first time in a long time.

After years of getting along, his two partners instantly understood what he meant.

[Ninja Technique: Shadow Binding Coffin]

[Ninja Technique: Mental Confusion Technique! 】

[Ninjutsu: Wild Boar Charge! ]

Without the advantage in numbers, the remaining few Kumogakure jonin were instantly crushed by Ino, Shikacho and the other two.

The situation on the battlefield also began to change.

"Chakra did it again!"

Mu Sheng clicked his tongue, then, without paying any attention to the Jonin battlefield nearby, he turned around and rushed into the battle between the Chunin and Genin.

Even without the blessing of chakra, with his physical fitness, he can deal with a group of enemies with the strength of Chunin and Genin.

It was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, and in an instant a bloody storm ensued.

With every step forward, the blood of a Cloud Ninja spurted out.

It was like offering a handful of fireworks to applaud Mu Sheng's killing performance.

"Jie Jie"

"Blood! Death! What a beautiful musical note!"

“Dance with me!!!”

"Kanhara-ryu: Death Elegy!"

Mu Sheng laughed heartily and rushed into the Cloud Ninjas, hearing the crisp sounds of weapons clashing, the hissing sound of blood spurting, and the enemies' wails before death.

Played a song of wild battle!
"It's him! I know him! Kanhara Masaru from the Uchiha squad!"

"What a terrible man!"

"Follow Lord Kanhara and charge! Kill all these Kumogakure barbarians!"

"Victory belongs to Konoha!"

"Kill the duck!"

The Konoha ninjas, who had been prepared to die in battle, began to feel the hope of victory after seeing Maki Sheng being unstoppable among the enemies.

Shouting fanatically, they followed Mu Sheng and launched a major counterattack!
"Damn it! Where did this scary little ghost come from!?"

"No, we can't stop him at all. He is a devil! A murderer!"

"Ah! Help! Don't leave me!"

In the blink of an eye, dozens or even hundreds of comrades died at the hands of Mu Sheng.

The morale of the remaining Kumogakure ninjas plummeted, especially after they discovered that Makisho showed no signs of stopping.

He even began to think about retreating, and the situation on the battlefield was instantly reversed!

After seeing the body of another teammate left behind, the two Kumogakure jonin wisely chose to withdraw from the battle.

Seeing this, the Ino-Shika-Cho trio did not pursue them, but instead chose to encircle and attack the other Kumogakure ninjas like Maki Sheng.

The overall situation has been decided. Instead of chasing after the jonin who are determined to retreat, it is better to kill a few more chunins and genins who are easier to deal with.

It can also save more ninjas from Konoha.

After the two Kumogakure jonin left the battle, they came to Kitano Yuya's side.

Seeing that the enemy had come to support, the Konoha Jonin who was fighting with Kitano Yuya did not hesitate and retreated immediately.

Fortunately, the two Kumogakure jonin had no intention of intercepting them, and instead asked Kitano Yuya:

"Retreat! Lord Yuya! Our plan has failed!"

"The enemy is too powerful!"

"No, we can't retreat! We have paid so much and it wasn't easy to get here. How can we just give up like this!" Kitano Yuya shouted unwillingly.

In order to carry out this action plan, the Hidden Cloud Village mobilized a large number of ninja troops and launched an attack on the front line.

It was to tie down Konoha's forces so that they could raid Konoha's empty rear camp.

If he retreats like this, Kitano Yuya's future in Kumogakure will be over!

"Lord Yuya! If we don't retreat now, all our people will be killed or injured, and then we won't even have a chance to retreat!" The two Kumogakure jonin were anxious.

"Yes! Lord Yuya! We have to bring back the information here! Otherwise, the village will suffer even greater losses!"

Kitano Yuya was a little hesitant when he heard this, especially when he saw the black-haired boy laughing and killing people in the crowd, and the broken limbs and arms flying into the sky from time to time.

Kitano Yuya also knew that if he continued to hesitate, he would only give the enemy a few more heads.

They couldn't change anything, but he just couldn't open his mouth for a while.

Damn it! Why did it become like this?

It was all because of that little brat named Kamihara Masaru. If it weren’t for that little brat, their plan wouldn’t have been leaked.

Using more people against fewer, and launching a surprise attack.

The unprepared Konoha camp will suffer heavy losses!
Seeing his conflicted look, the two Kumogakure jonin looked at each other, then lifted his arms and retreated in the direction they came from.

"No! Don't! Let me go!"

"Alas! You have caused me so much trouble! How can I explain this to Lord Raikage?"

Kitano Yuya struggled and shouted, but he couldn't break free from the arms of his two subordinates.

And with the commander's departure, the remaining Cloud Ninjas completely lost the will to fight.

They fled in all directions, crying and screaming!
Finally, I don’t have to face that murderer anymore!

"Kill! Don't run!"

"You Cloud Ninja bastard! Die! Die!"

The Konoha ninjas chased for a distance before letting the few remaining Cloud ninjas go and disappeared into the dark forest.

There are more than four hundred Kumogakure ninjas, plus more than three hundred Konoha ninjas.

In the end, only more than a hundred people survived!
Outside the valley, there were many broken bodies lying around, and sticky blood even formed a small river that spread all the way into the valley.

With one arm hanging on his chest, Hyuga Hizashi came to the body of a Hyuga member and raised it with his other injured arm.

He closed the dull eyes of the Hyuga ninja lying on the ground.

But in the next second, the closed eyelids opened again.

Those dull eyes, as if made of solidified limestone, stared blankly at Hinata Hizashi.

"Is this the caged bird of the Hyuga family?"

A clear voice sounded behind Hinata Hizashi, and the speaker didn't seem to be embarrassed to disturb others at all.

He took a step forward, squatted beside Hyuga Hizashi, and looked curiously at the Hyuga ninja's gray eyes.

"That's quite interesting! Imprinting a seal in the meridians of the human body! This is not something that ordinary seals can do."

The visitor kept smacking his lips and exclaiming in admiration, as if he had seen some amazing work.

Ah!
Hinata Hizashi laughed at himself in his heart.

In a sense, every member of the Hyuga branch has such an amazing work in his head.

However, no one from the Hyuga branch family was willing to accept this gift from the Hyuga ancestors.

Even after so many years, Hinata Hizashi can never forget that morning many years ago.

It was on that day that the elder of the Hyuga family branded this thing that looked like a slave mark on his head!

Especially two years ago, after his son Hyuga Neji was born, Hyuga Hizashi dreamed many times about what happened on the day he was branded as the caged bird.

"His name is Hinata Tsubasa!"

"Huh? What?" Makisatsu turned around in confusion and looked at Hinata Hizashi who suddenly spoke.

The latter didn't look at him, but kept staring at the body of the ninja named Hinata Tsubasa.

"Yi also likes the wind. When he talks about the wind, he just opens his arms and can fly like a bird."

"Everyone else is afraid of the battlefield, but Yi Ye always volunteers to participate!"

“I don’t know what’s going on in his mind.”

Hinata Hizashi paused here and reached out to touch the corner of the mouth of Hinata Tsubasa's corpse.

There was a barely perceptible arc there, as if he was smiling.

Hinata Hizashi's nasal cavity suddenly felt hot, as if he had eaten wasabi and was stimulated.

“I actually know why.”

"It has been a long time since the Zong family has been on the battlefield. Here, he is free."

"Just like a bird that has escaped from a cage, it can fly freely in the sky, even in this sky."

"Full of raptors that could prey on him!"

Hinata Hizashi didn't know why he suddenly said all this, maybe it was to mourn the death of his relatives and friends.

It may also be that he took the opportunity to vent the emotions that had been pent up in his heart for a long time.

"I'm sorry for saying so many inappropriate things and causing you trouble!"

Hinata Hizashi suddenly bowed and apologized to Makisho.

"No, don't apologize!"

Maki Sheng raised his hand and helped Hinata Hizashi up: "I should apologize. I shouldn't have used such a frivolous attitude towards a hero who refused to bow to fate!"

“Birds are meant to soar in the sky, across the sea of clouds, and fight the storm!”

"How can a mere cage made of bamboo strips contain the wings of freedom that yearn for the sky?"

Makisatsu stood up and bowed to Hinata Tsubasa's body.

Then he patted Hinata Hizashi's shoulder.

"For the sake of our friendship in battle, if one day you want to see the scenery in the sky, you can come find me!"

Mu Sheng raised his hand and nodded his head: "I do have some talent in ninjutsu, just give me a sample to study."

"It's not difficult to make a key to open the birdcage!"

After saying that, Mu Sheng turned and left.

Hinata Hizashi behind him was silent for a few seconds, and suddenly bowed deeply towards his back.

After a long time, he stood up.

"The key to the birdcage?" Hinata Hizashi murmured blankly.

As for the claim that Mu Sheng could free the bird from the cage, his reason told him not to have too much expectation.

Even though Mu Sheng's strength has been proven in this war.

However, sealing techniques and ninjutsu and taijutsu are two different concepts. Many powerful ninjas who are famous in the ninja world are not as good as the ninjas in the sealing class who specialize in sealing techniques.

But his emotions were tempting him again. What if?
The other person is only 11 years old!

Hatake Kakashi was 12 years old when he became a jonin.

Moreover, he possesses the strength of a jonin, and killing a jonin is just like cutting melons and vegetables, which is not on the same level.

Besides, Kanhara Masaru is only 11 years old, and his body has not yet entered the growth and development period.

When the other party is a few years older and his physical fitness and chakra amount increase rapidly, he will definitely be able to reach the level of Kage.

Such a talented ninja might really be able to free the bird from the cage?

It seemed as if there was a little devil in Hinata Hizashi's heart, constantly tempting him to give it a try. What if?
"Yeah! What if?"

'Even if it doesn't work, what do I have to lose?'

Hinata Hizashi's gaze couldn't help but look at Hinata Tsubasa's body.

He clearly remembered that Mu Sheng said he needed a sample for research.

"If I could use my own body to add wings to the bird in the cage, I'm sure you would be very happy, right?"

The balance in Hinata Hizashi's heart has tilted.

"That's all! With the strength that Kanhara Masaru showed in this battle, there will definitely be a reaction in the village."

"That person will definitely do something!"

Hinata Hizashi thought of the man who was gloomy all day long and looked like everyone owed him hundreds of millions of taels.

As a branch of the Hyuga family, Hyuga Hizashi never believed in the will of fire.

Whose Will of Fire would allow a few people in a family to brand others like slaves?
Not to mention the Hyuga branch, how many people in Konoha's ninja family would believe in the so-called Will of Fire?
Konoha has only been established for 52 years, but those ninja families have been passed down for dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of years.

It’s all about interests!

"If Kanhara Masaru can handle the questioning in the village, I will hand over Tsubasa's body to him.
If he can really break the caged bird, then being his dog won't matter."

Hinata Hizashi unconsciously clenched his fists.

A snowflake suddenly fell on Hinata Hizashi's face. The cold touch brought Hinata Hizashi back to his senses.

Looking up at the night sky, with the sharp eyesight of the Byakugan, Hinata Hizashi saw it higher in the sky.

Snowflakes slowly falling.

“It’s snowing”

The cold air from the Land of Rice condensed into snowflakes in the sky above the border of Konoha.

The fluffy snowflakes give the forest a layer of white winter clothes.

The blood river outside the valley was also frozen into a thin layer of ice.

Click!

A pair of ninja shoes crushed the thin ice, black and red blood plasma stained the soles of the shoes, and left bloody footprints on the ground.
