Konoha: Unable to learn ninjutsu, they had to develop their own.

The scene was extremely tragic.

Honglian's taijutsu is not weak; she is a genuine elite Jonin, and she can manipulate crystals in countless ways.

Many members of the secret service team were covered in wounds, but Aburame Shihiro was completely unharmed, while Honglian was tormented by him to the point of having a terrible headache.

"Kimimaro, if you don't make a move soon, I'm done for!"

Honglian was furious.

These damn bugs are so weak, but there's just no way to wipe them out in one go.

"You can't even handle these few?"

Kimimaro slowly walked out of the passage. He raised his hand to deal with Aburame Shihiro, but suddenly looked up at the south and said, "New friends, you can come out too."

Yamato, Chiba, and Tenten jumped down.

"Are you Orochimaru's subordinates?"

"Kaguya Kimimaro, you must be the Chiba that Lord Orochimaru mentioned, right?"

Kimimaro looked at Chiba.

really.

Someone admired by Lord Orochimaru, someone he could recognize immediately upon seeing.

Chiba may seem ordinary, but his demeanor and confidence set him apart from other recent graduates of the Genin class. For example, the little girl next to him looked much more ordinary.

His gaze was fixed on Chiba.

"I am Yagyu Chiba."

"Nice to meet you."

Kimimaro bowed slightly. "Although we will be enemies in the future, I believe we will become allies sooner or later."

I opened my mouth every day, but I was too embarrassed to start criticizing.

This guy was very polite, as if he were facing a friend, not an enemy.

"Nice to meet you, although I think you are too confident in Orochimaru."

Chiba smiled.

Kimimaro smiled gently, offering no rebuttal, and then slowly pulled the bone from behind his back.

Honglian hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.

As for the ANBU ninjas, some were injured, and now that they finally had some free time, Aburame Shihiro immediately summoned a healing insect using a summoning jutsu—

Aburame Shihiro couldn't help but secretly admire Chiba once again.

If it weren't for Chiba, how could he have mastered medical ninjutsu, and such a convenient ability at that?

Chiba paid no attention to them.

His gaze was fixed on Kimimaro, and Kimimaro's gaze remained fixed on him.

"Lord Orochimaru said that to deal with you, one must have the resolve to kill you, so I will not hold back. Please enlighten me!"

Kimimaro said earnestly.

"Hey, I think we outnumber each other, right?"

Tian Tian couldn't help but say.

Kimimaro smiled and said, "Many times, the number of people doesn't determine anything."

After the bone sword was completely withdrawn.

He said seriously, "I've heard you're skilled with a sword. Let's have a sword duel."

"Damn it, Kimimaro, stop playing around and take care of that bug for me!"

Honglian couldn't help but yell and curse.

This guy completely ignored her when he encountered an opponent, while she was suffering from the torment of parasitic worms!

Kimimaro glanced at Aburame Shihiro, smiled faintly, and the next moment...

His figure vanished from the spot in an instant.

Corpse Bone Pulse: Dance of the Willow!

Swift, clean, and decisive swordsmanship.

but.

The moment he appeared in front of Aburame Shihiro—

when!

Before Shih-Hung Yu could react, two people appeared in front of him.

Kimimaro, Chiba.

The speed of these two individuals exceeded the limits that the naked eye could perceive.

too fast!

Kimimaro sprang out two bone spikes from his arm, chest, and thigh, each severing a bone cleanly, only to be blocked by the second bone spike.

A normal person would be dead by now.

What terrifying swordsmanship!

"It's a very fast Iaijutsu, very fast, and very lethal."

Kimimaro's expression turned serious. "You are indeed a formidable opponent!"

"Each each other."

Chiba grips the sword.

That last strike, except he didn't use Sage Mode, he basically went all out, changing direction three times in succession.

result.

Kimimaro's Shikotsumyaku defense blocked him one by one.

Bloodline limit is indeed powerful.

It seems...

I need to use Sage Mode!

"Chiba-kun, I'm going to get serious now."

Kimimaro said solemnly.

"What a coincidence, me too."

Chiba narrowed his eyes.

Honglian secretly gathered her strength in the background.

Chiba seems quite strong, given that he can sever Kimimaro's bones in one strike. Perhaps I shouldn't mess around with this madman, Kimimaro.

She's already considering retreating.

however.

Selling Kimimaro would have equally serious consequences; even Lord Orochimaru wouldn't let her off the hook.

Honglian gritted her teeth and said, "I'll deal with him. You go and kill the others!"

"You are no match for him."

Kimimaro made his move again.

Dance of Tsubaki!

The bone sword danced dazzlingly, but in the next moment, Chiba's aura suddenly changed.

Before anyone could react, they saw Chiba's figure flash by, and then Kimimaro was sent flying by a series of punches, his blade flashing with golden light.

With a single stroke, the hard bone was cleanly severed.

Kimimaro's arm was severed.

The sudden burst of power caught Kimimaro off guard. He never expected Chiba to have such a hidden move. The sudden burst of power severed his arm.

Honglian was completely stunned.

Then--

She decisively used a super-large Crystal Release technique to encompass the entire area, and then took Kimimaro with her to escape. Her Body Flicker Technique was incredibly fast.

Kimimaro was almost invincible in her eyes. Apart from Orochimaru, she felt that no one could defeat Kimimaro. But now, someone had directly shattered Kimimaro's invincible bones and even cut off an arm.

Outrageous!

She had never seen an enemy like this before.

If Chiba's strength is already this great on his own, with the increasing number of Konoha ninjas gathering, the original plan is clearly no longer feasible.

Is staying here a sure way to die?

but.

Her Crystal Escape technique, used to seal everyone, didn't last long—

Bang bang bang!

A series of cracking sounds came from inside, followed by the buzzing of insects that filled the surroundings.

Honglian's expression changed.

The crystal shattered completely in the next instant.

The Konoha ninja have escaped!

She pushed away Kimimaro, who had lost an arm.

"Come on!"

"No, my body..."
