Mizukage's Pokémon Ninja Scroll

Chapter 103 Danger Foresight Failure?

At this moment, Tachibana Kanagawa finally realized that "danger prediction" was not a panacea.

Even with alarm bells blaring in your mind while you're in the air, there's still no way to avoid it.

In that critical moment, Jianchuan Ju could only do his best to shrink his body and draw his divine spear to block in front of his chest.

"Bang-"

With a loud bang, Jianchuan Ju was directly struck by this powerful palm strike, the divine spear slammed heavily into his chest, and he was sent flying backward.

While in mid-air, Tachibana Kenkawa gripped the divine spear tightly to prevent the short sword from flying out of his hand, but then coughed up blood.

The alarm bells in his mind hadn't died down yet. After struggling to adjust his body, he saw the Hyuga ninja quickly chasing after him towards his landing point.

Ignoring her injuries, Jianchuan Ju quickly formed hand seals.

"Water Release: Flying Water Shuriken"

The clear water he spat out was mixed with blood, which transformed into more than a dozen crimson shuriken in front of Jianchuan Ju and scattered in all directions toward the enemy.

Seeing the opponent's disheveled attempt to dodge the sword, Tachibana Kenkawa revealed a slight smile.

"Tch, a branch family that can't use the Rejuvenation Technique."

Seeing that this brat still dared to mock him, the Hyuga ninja angrily slashed at Tachibana Kanagawa with another Bagua Palm strike.

However, reinforcements have arrived.

A figure swiftly appeared in the air, grabbing Jianchuan Ju while maintaining momentum to dodge the attack.

Immediately afterwards, several ninjutsu attacks came toward the middle-aged Hyuga.

Ignoring her teammates' battle, Tachibana immediately used "Feather Perch" to heal her injuries.

What seemed like a mere empty palm strike was actually fatal when hit by that kind of attack.

Fortunately, Tachibana Kanakawa used his divine spear to parry, but he still suffered internal injuries and several broken ribs. Now is not the time to think about his future lifespan.

The healing effect of "Feather Perch" was indeed powerful; the injury was healed before Jianchuan Ju even hit the ground.

Jianchuan Ju said somewhat awkwardly to Ken, who was carrying her in a princess carry.

"Senior Ken, I've already healed myself, can you let me go now?"

Upon hearing this, Ken instinctively let go, but fortunately, Ken had good balance and was able to regain his footing after only two stumbles.

"Dr. Ju, please treat yourself first. I'll go help over there."

Ken patted Kenchikawa on the shoulder as he spoke, and gave him a big smile.

Ken, unaware of the powerful effects of Jianchuan Ju's "Feather Perch," assumed he was simply treating and stabilizing the injuries. After giving a brief instruction, he left Jianchuan Ju behind to support Qing and the others.

Jianchuan Ju watched Ken disappear in the blink of an eye, speechless. He had been thinking of reminding Ken to be careful of the civilians, but he had no choice but to quickly catch up and go back.

At the same time, Jianchuan Ju didn't forget to take out a handful of military rations and stuff them into his mouth in big gulps.

"Looks like I'll have to consider making bigger dumplings next time."

When Tachibana Kenkawa returned to the battlefield, she felt somewhat relieved upon seeing the scene before her.

After all, they were just a force of ordinary people, and even if they possessed some secret techniques, they were only slightly threatening.

At this moment, these people were thrown into chaos by a water-style ninjutsu released by someone unknown.

However, Tachibana Kenkawa still managed to remind his teammates by shouting loudly.

"Beware of those civilians; they can use secret techniques to kill their enemies by drawing blood from their opponents."

The members of Kirigakure were also slightly taken aback; no wonder these ordinary people dared to team up to attack ninjas.

Everyone is now more cautious.

The Hidden Mist Village side had a large and powerful force, and all of them were elite ninjas. Before Tachibana Kenkawa could even make a move, they had already killed two Hyuga ninjas.

Qingben was still thinking of keeping the boy alive to take him prisoner.

Unfortunately, seeing no way to escape, the opponent actually tried to blind himself. Qing had no choice but to quickly kill him, but even so, everyone still made a huge profit.

There's no need to worry about the two branch family ninjas. With the Caged Bird Seal binding them, not only were their Byakugan destroyed, but even if they brought the other party's corpse back, they wouldn't be able to find out any useful information.

However, the corpse of this young member of the main family could be of great use.

Without hesitation, Qing took out a sealing scroll from his backpack and began preparations to seal the other party's corpse inside and bring it back to the village.

While Qing was cleaning up the battlefield, Ken walked over and looked at Jianchuan Ju with some surprise.

"Dr. Tachibana, your medical ninjutsu is amazing! You're completely fine after just a short while."

"Hehe, Ken-senpai, the matter of medical ninjas is rather profound and cannot be explained in a short time."

Ken was about to laugh it off, but he was one of the few easy-going ninjas in Kirigakure. After spending so much time with him, Ken understood his temperament and wasn't worried about offending him.

"Alright, you said it yourself, so I'll wait until we get back to hear you explain what medical ninjas are all about."

Ken knew that Tachibana Ken was talking nonsense, so he went along with Tachibana Ken's words and teased him.

"Um, I'll definitely do it next time."

As the group chatted idly, Qing finished sealing the scroll, put it away, and turned to give the retreat order to the exploration team.

The next instant.

A gust of wind, accompanied by a crackling sound, swept past in front of Kanagawa Tachibana.

Before Jianchuan Ju could react, everything in front of her was already blood red.

It was only then that Tachibana Kanakawa realized what was happening, and the "danger warning" alarm sounded in her mind again.

Blindedly wiping the blood from her face, Tachibana Kanagawa finally saw what was happening before her eyes.

Ken, who was just chatting and laughing with him, is now a headless corpse, and the crimson blood he saw was the blood that Ken had sprayed out, obscuring his vision.

At this moment, the headless corpse had already crashed heavily onto the ground.

Jianchuan Ju shifted her gaze to the left, her hands trembling slightly.

At that moment, a dark-skinned man whose body was crackling with blue electricity was standing there.

"The Fourth Raikage, A."

Only then did Tachibana Kanagawa realize that it wasn't that the "Danger Premonition" warning was too slow, but rather that the other party was too fast, appearing in front of her the instant they entered the range of the "Danger Premonition".

It was only at this moment that the members of the Hidden Mist Village realized what had happened.

"team leader!"

"Teacher Ken!"

Three mournful shouts rang out from behind him.

Jianchuan Ju dared not look away for even a moment, her gaze fixed on the figure crackling with electricity.

"A ninja from Kirigakure? They've got some nerve."

Ai slammed his fists together, ignoring the expressions of fear or anger on the faces of the others present.

However, the few Mist Hidden Ones present simply gripped their weapons tightly and did not make the first move.

Ai casually pointed to the scroll in Qing's hand.

"That blue-haired guy, isn't the Hyuga main family member's corpse inside the scroll? Hand it over."

His casual attitude made it seem as if he were ordering his subordinates to fetch something.

Qing gripped the scroll tightly in one hand and held the kunai in the other, neither sternly refusing nor begging for mercy to hand over the scroll.

He just stared intently at the other person.
