Naruto: The Progenitor of Demons Starting from Kirigakure

The two sides were six meters apart, neither too far nor too close, and neither of them was a very safe distance.

Suddenly, without warning, Jieluo vanished without moving.

External style. Swift

Concentrate your chakra at one point, then unleash a burst of power by pushing off the ground.

But this is the sea! It's fundamentally different from land. On the sea, many ninja's body-flicker techniques are difficult to execute; they can only maintain their chakra on the surface.

fast!

Mito's pupils suddenly contracted, her body reacting before her brain, and she unleashed her swordsmanship almost instinctively, watching Yura suddenly rush towards her and the eight waves of water that suddenly erupted behind her.

Ordinary ninjas would be caught off guard and confused by Yura's movements.

However, in the eyes of a sensory ninja like Mito, every kind of Body Flicker is preceded by a warning sign.

This posture...

In Mito's view, Yura raised his sword with both hands, preparing to slash at his face. Was he going to strike?

A feint...?

"Let's use this tactic to lure them in," Mito said, his left hand poised to strike down with his sword at Yura's face like lightning. It was a straight slash, but the nodachi was longer than Yura's sword; when both landed, Yura would be struck first. His right hand followed suit...

As she charged forward, Yura's figure flickered like a ghost, dodging Mito's left side and slashing downwards. At the same time, she changed direction with both hands holding the sword, and smoothly dragged the sword down towards Mito's abdomen.

Holding a sword with both hands not only gives you an advantage in terms of strength, but also allows you to easily change the sword's trajectory by using the lever structure of the hilt with both hands. In gaming terms, this is called a forced cancel.

In contrast, it is not easy to change moves when holding a sword with one hand; one relies more on the sword's momentum to swing it.

At this point, the second knife will come in handy.

Mito's lips curled slightly. I knew it; she saw right through me!

Jieluo used a classic sword technique: face-to-face strike, dodging the opponent's straight slash while simultaneously cutting and slashing at the opponent's abdomen.

Induction successful!

In an instant, as Yura dodged the direct slash, her sword rapidly approached Mito's abdomen. Mito's right hand swept horizontally, silently slashing towards Yura's side, the sharp wind-style chakra blade humming.

The blade was still Mito's long nodachi, and Mito remained at a safe distance.

Yura smiled faintly, her scarlet eyes meeting Mito's lowered gaze.

When did you get the illusion that I was holding knives in both hands?

As Yura left the hilt of his sword, he lunged forward and blocked Mito's right wrist. While blocking the sword's momentum, he continued to drag and slash with his sword in his right hand. Instantly, Mito's eyes narrowed, and his left hand, which was slashing, sank down rapidly. He abandoned the slash and, following the momentum of the sword's path, used his center of gravity to adjust his movement. At the critical moment, the hilt of his sword blocked Yura's dragging slash with a crisp clang.

Each held a knife, parrying the other's sword strike. They stood close together, one on the left and one on the right, locked in a stalemate, locked in a steady struggle.

At this moment, the water ripples caused by Jieluo's instantaneous movement slowly subsided.

Both fought with their own hands, the hilt of Mito's sword clashing and intertwining with the blade of Yura's sword, sparks flying out in a constant stream.

Dual-wielding weapons has a significant advantage over single-wielding weapons because the number of moves that can be combined is the square of the number of moves that can be combined with a single weapon. With each additional weapon, the number of possible moves increases exponentially, making the combinations incredibly varied.

What a heavy sword.

That's some real strength...

Both sides sensed this through touch.

"It seems I have the advantage in chakra reserves," Mito laughed. "You look quite petite, but you possess incredible strength."

Sensing the barely active, stagnant chakra within Yura's body, Mito raised an eyebrow.

"If you don't unleash your chakra, then I won't hold back."

Mito said.

whispering sound...

Jie Luo smiled faintly.

I need to be able to unleash my power first. Would you let me drink a sip of the Hero's Water?

"Didn't we agree on a sword duel?" Jieluo said.

"Don't you want to see the sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan?" Mito laughed. "The prerequisite for the Uzumaki clan to use sealing techniques is that they can defeat the monsters in terms of strength. That's the Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques. Otherwise, sealing techniques are just useless techniques."

Mito's chakra surged, and sensing the increasing force on the sword, Yura used the opportunity to deflect the force and retreat, separating from Mito to regroup and launch a new attack.

Don't even think about escaping!

As Yura retreated, Mito moved to close in, her chakra suddenly erupting throughout her body, and a heavy sense of pressure abruptly appeared in the air. As she approached, Mito slashed horizontally with her left hand, rapidly sweeping towards Yura's face. Yura held her sword with both hands, the blades held upright, blocking Mito's sweeping blade to her side.

With a heavy thud, sparks flew and danced across the sword.

It's very heavy!

Jie Luo narrowed his eyes slightly. The ninja clan's swordsmanship is like this; it involves chakra and is not simply a matter of muscle strength.

The wind-style chakra on the sword possessed a strange power, gripping Onikiri tightly and preventing Yura from withdrawing his blade.

"Gotcha..." Mito said, raising his sword with his right hand while using his left hand to bite down on Yura's sword, suddenly pulling Yura away. Just as Yura was about to duck to dodge Mito's horizontal slash, he was pulled off his stance by the movement of Mito's left hand.

Jieluo's eyes were bloodshot, and his horizontal slash with his right hand was a feint.

There was no intention to kill at all.

At that moment, Mito's right hand slashed horizontally, aiming straight for Yura's face.

Crimson Secret Technique. External Style. Flame Demon.

With a burst of force from both hands, Yura's blade flashed and blue flames erupted, breaking the stalemate between her and Mito's left-handed sword. Using the momentum to regain her balance, the shockwave forced Yura's body from a forward lean to a backward tilt, and Onikiri subtly switched hands to her left...

I saw it...

Mito watched this scene closely, never letting his guard down against Yura's change of hand. As the blue flames burst open and broke through his own stance, he also used the momentum of the flames to raise his left hand and slash at Yura's right side face again.

The horizontal slash with the right hand was still a feint. As the upper body twisted, the horizontal slash with the right hand swept across the air in front of Jieluo and changed direction by inertia, merging with the horizontal slash with the left hand. The two swords, one in front and one behind, slashed at Jieluo from the right side at the same time.

Dual-wielding is all about coordinated attacks.

As Yura leaned back, he suddenly grabbed the hilt of his sword with his right hand, held the sword with both hands, and used the lever to change his move, raising the sword again to block in front of him.

whispering sound!

Yura's crimson eyes flashed as she focused her gaze on Mito's swordplay. Dual-wielding swordsmanship was incredibly versatile, and without sensing even a fleeting wave of killing intent, it was impossible to pinpoint the exact direction of her attacks. All that mattered was her reaction time, her nerves' reflexes.

Mito's twin swords slashed down simultaneously, doubling the weight of the sword strikes as they hit the blades that Yura was holding in place, causing the swords to suddenly sink.

But it was blocked!

Mito raised an eyebrow, "I underestimated your superhuman strength."

Amidst the sparks, his eyes caught sight of the notches cut into the two swords. He narrowed his eyes, realizing his sword was about to break. Suddenly, wind-style chakra erupted from the blade.

This time it wasn't a bite, but a push away; simultaneously, the flames on the Jieluo Sword suddenly flashed.

Mito was completely unaware of the impending eruption of flames and was slightly startled. The two forces were evenly matched, and at the same time, both of them leaned back slightly, and the three swords swirled back and forth along the paths of the strikes.
