At the same time, sounds of rioting arose.

"Go back!"

"Quickly, pass on the intelligence!"

"It's the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist!"

"Jonin, come with me to cover our retreat!"

"Newlyweds, retreat!"

Three Jonin squads from Konoha were speeding through the forest. Each squad consisted of four people: one Jonin and two Chunin.

There are 3 Jonin and 9 Chunin, for a total of 12 ninjas.

The Hidden Mist ninja who pursued them numbered only seven, giving the Leaf Village an advantage in numbers, but their combat strength was vastly different.

The Hidden Mist Village dispatched the renowned Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.

The seven individuals, even the weakest among them, were all Jonin. Furthermore, each possessed a ninja sword perfectly suited to their ninjutsu, making them no less powerful than ordinary elite Jonin. Legend has it that the seven of them, working together, could conquer a small country in a single night.

For Kirigakure, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen were equivalent to the Legendary Sannin of Konoha.

Among them, Suigetsu Hozuki, Hiwa Juzo, and Kurosuki Raiga all possess the strength of elite Jonin.

The three of them, equipped with ninja swords, were among the top elite Jonin.

Even a Kage-level ninja would be overwhelmed by the combined attack of these seven, let alone the fact that Konoha only had three Jonin. So they never intended to retaliate; they just wanted to drag out the seven so that their Chunin could take the information back.

Rather than risk total annihilation, bringing back the intelligence is the most important thing.

boom!

boom!

boom!

In the forest, flames, lightning, giant waves, gales, and falling rocks came one after another.

The area where everyone was fighting was instantly leveled by the aftershocks of the battle.

Raiga Kurosuki raised his Raito, Kiba, high, the blade covered in lightning chakra.

In an instant, a powerful lightning bolt shot straight up to the sky, connecting with the lightning in the sky, and a huge arc of electricity descended from the sky!

boom--!

"careful!"

Earth Escape·Earth Flow Wall!

One of the Konoha Jonin unleashed an Earth Release defensive ninjutsu.

However, when faced with the arc of electricity falling from the sky, the earthen wall shattered instantly, like paper.

"what!"

The Jonin pushed aside the Chunin in front of him, but was struck by lightning and screamed in pain.

He could have easily dodged it, but he chose to unleash a ninjutsu to save his subordinates.

After a brief delay, he was struck by lightning.

boom!

At this moment, Bakuto Himoku, wielding Mushi Jinpachi, brandished his Bakuto. Scrolls extending from the blade were covered with explosive tags, and a huge explosion rang out, instantly engulfing the Konoha Jonin in flames.

Watching the Konoha ninjas flee in disarray from the explosion, Kusanagi Yato, standing on the tree trunk, wore a mocking expression.

"Those little mice of Konoha, how pathetic they are!"

boom!

boom!

boom!

Might Guy, Genma Shiranui, and Ebisu listened to the continuous explosions and intermittent screams coming from behind them, their emotions a mixture of grief and fear.

Are they going to die here?!

"careful!"

Suddenly, a large number of explosive tags fell from above the three people's heads.

boom--!

The three quickly dodged, avoiding the direct explosion, but were still thrown away by the aftershocks, tumbling to the ground like gourds.

As soon as they regained their footing, the scene before them made the three of them feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.

Suigetsu Hozuki, Mushishi Jinpachi, Hozuki Senjin, and Kurosuki Raiga sat on the rock in front of them in different poses.

Kurihara Kushimaru squatted on the tree trunk, Biwa Juzo leaned on his large sword, and Tsurugi no Eito squatted beside him.

The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist took only a few minutes to kill three Jonin and six Chunin from Konoha.

As for the last three remaining people, they were treated as a final entertainment.

It's like a cat-and-mouse game. The cat usually doesn't kill the mouse outright, but rather plays with it until it gets bored, and then bites off the mouse's neck when the mouse is most desperate.

"Yo~ Konoha brat, you've got guts, huh? You didn't even flinch in fear!"

"Kuri-san Kushimaru said jokingly."

The other six were too lazy to speak, but they were happy to watch Kushimaru Kurihara tease the Konoha ninjas.

"Sigh... This is boring." Seeing that the three of them looked scared but still gripped their ninja tools tightly under their murderous aura, and were neither scared out of their wits nor begging for mercy, Kushimaru Kurihara lost interest in toying with them. He gripped his ninja sword "Sewing Needle" tightly, preparing to torture the three of them.

Might Guy's expression tightened, his hands clenched into fists, and he shouted: "Eight Gates - Open Gate! Open Rest Gate! Open Life Gate! Open Injury Gate!"

He opened four gates in succession, and a surge of violent chakra immediately erupted from his body.

"Oh? This is taijutsu? What use is taijutsu at a time like this? Hitting me is probably like tickling me! What a pathetic piece of trash, you can't even use a decent ninjutsu."

Kushimaru Kurihara, carrying the ninja sword "Sewing Needle," slowly walked towards Might Guy and the other two.

boom--!

A deafening roar, like a thunderclap, resounded.

Kushimaru Kurishari was completely embedded in the ground, gushing blood from his mouth.

All of this was caused by a fist that didn't look very strong.

"What?!" The other seven were shocked; they hadn't seen the newcomer make a move at all.

Bai Yu stood in the center of the crater, looking at Kureha Kushimaru who was barely breathing, and asked, "How's that pressure? Like a tickle?"

"Cough cough cough!" Kushimaru Kurihara coughed violently, coughing up fragments of his internal organs along with blood.

Bai Yu spread his hands and shrugged, looking helplessly at the other six people, and said, "You saw it, he said that physical attacks felt like tickling. I was just proving that he was wrong. Who knew he was so weak? He died after just one touch of my fist. I didn't mean to."

"Yagami Shiraha?!" Suigetsu Hozuki's face darkened. "Didn't you already leave Konoha? Why are you making an enemy of Kirigakure? Do you really think that with the newly established Uzumaki clan, you can contend with Kirigakure? You actually..."

"You're not that strong, yet you talk as big as the Third Raikage?"

"What did you say?!"

[Chapter 133: The Eight Gates Formation]

"Isn't my meaning obvious enough?" Bai Yu spread his hands, shook his head and chuckled, "Or do you want to die here? I don't mind wasting a few minutes of your time."

"What did you say?!" Raiga Kurosuki's face contorted with rage, then he let out a cold laugh, revealing a cruel smile: "I'd like to see if you're really as strong as the rumors say? That you can fight the Third Raikage to a draw at this age!"

"Although your request is excessive, I will grant it." Bai Yu shook his head slightly, clenched his hands tightly, and a crimson aura surged up, instantly filling his entire body.

boom--!

The violent bursts of flame sent a shiver down everyone's spines; even from a distance, they could feel the scorching heat rushing towards them.

Is this Yagami Shiroha's true strength?

A powerful ninjutsu technique capable of rivaling the Third Raikage's Lightning Release Chakra Mode.

Even Kurozuki Raiga, who had been defiant just moments before, looked at Bai Yu with a serious expression. The other five drew their swords, cautiously preparing for a potential attack by Bai Yu.

True powerhouses don't even need to lift a finger; they let others know how strong they are.

Although Bai Yu still had a smile on his face, the six of them felt a tightness in their bodies.

"Wait!" Seeing that Bai Yu was about to make a move, Suigetsu Hobuki suddenly raised his hand and said, "You have already left Konoha. Kirigakure is fighting Konoha, not the Uzumaki clan. There is absolutely no need for us to fight."

The other five paused for a moment when they heard Suigetsu Hobuki say that. After all, he was the strongest among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, and his ruthless and cold-blooded style meant that the others generally respected his opinion.

Rather than wanting to test Shiraha's strength, the other four did not want to fight Shiraha if the situation allowed.

After all, Shiraha easily killed Kushimaru Kurihara from the start. Among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, apart from Suigetsu Hozuki who could overwhelm Kushimaru Kurihara in a one-on-one fight, the others did not have the strength to kill Kushimaru Kurihara.

However, compared to Bai Yu's ability to instantly kill with a single move, these are nothing.

"Among the forces that besieged the Land of Whirlpools back then, shouldn't Kirigakure have been one?" Bai Yu countered. "Isn't that my reason for fighting?"

In the past, Bai Yu wouldn't have bothered wasting time on empty talk.

However, since awakening the "Chain of Emotions," he has discovered that the amount of "emotional power" gained from direct combat and from influencing the opponent's mindset through "trash talk" is vastly different.

As it turns out, the power of language is often very strong.

As Bai Yu activated the "Chain of Emotions," he could clearly see the "emotional power" above the heads of everyone around him slowly gathering.

Upon hearing his words, the six Ninja Swordsmen in front of him experienced a violent fluctuation in the emotional mist above their heads, which rapidly expanded in range, with a complex mix of emotions.

Seeing this, the Watermelon Pufferfish Demon's eyes flashed with a dangerous glint, and he gave the others a wink.

Who would have thought that even if they managed to bypass the ruins of the Land of Whirlpools, they would still encounter such a troublesome figure as Shiraha?

Let alone launching a sneak attack on Konoha, it's questionable how many people will even be able to leave safely today.
