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

but.

Chiba knew very well that this old ghost had no intention of letting him go; everything he had said earlier was meant to put him on his guard, but he hadn't considered one thing—

……

The next instant, Kiyota Ishi swung his sword.

call out!

Kiyota Ishi's speed suddenly increased.

He fled towards the sealing formation, slowing down as he went.

"This is the last chance."

Kiyota Ishi didn't hesitate at all. After swinging his sword, he turned around instantly and slashed at Chiba in an arc.

What a quick move!

Chiba's eyes lit up.

This sword technique is similar to the small tricks of Iaijutsu; it is simple yet practical, and it is a completely pure combination of power and the sword.

Aside from the Land of Iron, it's rare to see such a sword anywhere else.

pity.

The opponent was a Jonin, so he couldn't witness more of that kind of swordsmanship.

Kiyota Ishi didn't waste a single word when he actually took action.

His knife was designed specifically for killing, with no unnecessary movements.

Simple and direct.

This is Chiba's evaluation of Kiyota stone.

It was precisely this kind of swordsmanship that he couldn't break, but fortunately, he wasn't a pure samurai—

Binding formation activated!

"Damn you brat!"

"But you can't move like this, and my men will be here soon. What can you do then?"

Kiyota Ishi quickly calmed down after his initial anger.

Through observation, he understood what Chiba's technique was.

Sealing Array!

A sealing technique frequently used by Chunin.

His subordinates were only a dozen steps away from Chiba, and Chiba had to maintain the spell, otherwise he could escape.

To put it bluntly, it's just a matter of waiting to die.

He smiled dismissively.

Chiba smiled slightly, and then he stopped forming hand seals.

Kiyota Ishi smiled broadly, but soon his expression turned to astonishment and disbelief.

Even though the opponent had stopped maintaining the sealing array, he was still sealed and unable to move. He tried to break the sealing technique with his chakra, but it only made the sealing technique stronger.

what happened?

His expression was blank.

The next moment, whoosh~

The knife slashed across his neck.

A top-tier samurai died at the hands of a low-ranking ninja.

Kakashi, who was about to launch a sneak attack, stopped in his tracks.

This kid actually succeeded!

Although it was a calculated move against an unsuspecting opponent, and a completely new sealing formation was used, killing someone comparable to an ordinary Jonin is still a remarkable achievement.

"No, there are three more. This kid... he's really something!"

Kakashi sighed inwardly.

Although he didn't think these few samurai posed a threat to him, he was still deeply moved by Chiba's risky act of stopping him.

This child will amount to something!

Just as he was considering whether or not to come out—

"Is Kakashi-sensei there? There are four more hiding in the shadows, and they're getting closer now."

Chiba said in a low voice.

Kakashi narrowed his eyes, then instantly emerged from the ground and dragged a samurai who had just landed back into the ground.

Immediately afterwards, he beheaded him with a single stroke.

Earth Release: The Art of Decapitation in the Heart.

This is the complete version!

Then came a massacre with knives.

Kakashi wielding a sword is like a reincarnation of White Fang, his fangs swiftly reaping the lives of his enemies.

A dozen seconds later, Kakashi sheathed his sword, panting heavily.

He walked wearily to Chiba's side and covered his Sharingan with his headband again.

"I need to rest for a while."

Kakashi leaned against a tree, utterly exhausted, as was Chiba; the transformation jutsu Kazusa had cast on him had long since vanished.

Footsteps sounded.

"Pah~pah~pah~"

Three claps rang out from the treetops not far away.

"As expected of Kakashi Hatake, even with his chakra greatly depleted, his taijutsu and swordsmanship are still incredibly formidable. If you were at your peak, we really wouldn't dare to provoke you."

Four figures appeared and disappeared.

Kakashi narrowed his eyes, "forcibly" sat up, and said, "Are you the Four Symbols Celestials of Takumi Village?"

"Don't give him time to recover. Be careful of that strange sealing formation."

"Just destroy it all!"

The four men acted immediately, without wasting any words, and then...

The woman in the picture is wielding two swords.

The next instant, a fierce wind howled in, leaving nothing but barren land where grass and trees were torn apart, making it impossible for any traps or talismans to remain.

"on!"

This part of the plot wasn't very engaging, so I'll have to make up for it with an extra chapter. Please forgive me, this is three chapters today.

Chapter 50 The Squad's Perfect Cooperation

"What amazing wind-style chakra! No wonder it was created by the founder of Takumi Village!"

Chiba took a deep breath.

If it weren't for her weapon, he could take on ten of those guys!

One after another, soft swords followed like snakes.

Chiba and Kakashi retreated and jumped away.

Their target was Kakashi, but that didn't mean they let their guard down against Chiba, after all, the boy had personally killed a samurai comparable to a Jonin.

Although samurai have obvious weaknesses in comprehensive combat and cannot be regarded as complete Jonin in this situation, it is an undeniable fact that Chiba is troublesome.

Therefore, he received considerable preferential treatment.

Most of the attacks were directed at Kakashi, but a third of them still came towards him.

Even with Chiba at his limit, dodging such a dense barrage of attacks was already quite difficult, and counterattacking was out of the question for the time being.

In a fleeting moment, it took a life—

of course.

"Kakashi-sensei, if these weapons all have characteristics similar to 'living things,' then the armor has a mouth, and its ability might be to absorb chakra."

"Tsuchihashi, you deal with Kakashi."

Not only is he highly skilled with swords and possesses a strange sealing formation, but he also deciphered the structure of the Peacock Twin Swords in a short time and sealed them, and even guessed the abilities of the Infinite Kong Armor.

Kakashi still had fighting ability; they had been deceived by the opponent's disguise.

Disconnected.

The prerequisite is that they can retrieve the Peacock Twin Swords.

The flashing white light was like lightning in the night sky.

The three survivors sensed something was wrong.

"finished?"

and.

"Lord Hishin, that boy..."

It's too far away; there's no way I can get here.

Kakashi nodded.

Kakashi turned his head away.
