Chapter 137: Trick
Kiba's pupils widened slightly,
and a chill that reached the soles of his feet suddenly rose from behind.
Kiuchi Taketo, who was beside him, seemed to have noticed something and looked
behind Kiba in disbelief.
He's behind!
A thought popped up suddenly,
accompanied by a murderous aura that made him shiver all over.
Get rid of this kid first!
The strong man behind Kiba held up
his ninja knife, his entire body radiating murderous intent. His face was full
of determination to kill Kiba, this knife aimed to never fail.
"Chiba!" Kiuchi Taketo's
eyes widened incredulously. He almost noticed something was wrong when the
strong man used the Body Flicker Technique. When he turned his head, he found
the strong man was right behind Kiba, his right hand about to chop down with a
knife. But Kiba didn't seem to notice it; even if he did, he couldn't dodge it!
At this time, Kiuchi Taketo also
reacted, turning around and punching the strong man.
The strong man noticed the punch,
narrowing his eyes slightly.
This little devil with a sword couldn't even block
my horizontal slash; this punch is nothing to worry about. The current plan
must eliminate this little devil!
The strong man decisively ignored
Kiuchi Taketo's punch, slashing towards Kiba suddenly with the ninja sword
flashing with lightning.
As the chop fell, Kiba turned his
head belatedly, his eyes full of surprise and solemnity. But all he could do
was look back. The strong man's chop was faster than lightning, and the chakra
nature transformation of the thunder attribute on the blade made it extremely
sharp! Even the attack range had increased slightly—Kiba couldn't escape at
all!
Go to hell, brat!
Seeing Kiba's gaze, the corner of
the strong man's mouth curled up into a smile—a cheerful smile that could
avenge his partner.
At that moment, under the cliff on
the strong man's left side, a figure suddenly jumped out, heading straight for
the strong man. Simultaneously, sword light burst out in his hand, twelve sword
lights in surprise.
Double Sparrow Triple Flash!
This figure was definitely Morino
Shinsuke!
The strong man's eyes glanced
slightly but he ignored it. He slashed forward with his ninja knife, and
simultaneously swept his left hand towards Morino Shinsuke. The ninja knife
drew an arc of current and met twelve sword lights.
I've been waiting for you, Morino!
"Do it!" When the ninja
knife swept out, the strong man suddenly shouted.
Lightning Release: Thousand Thunder Needles!
The Kumogakure ninja, who had been
prepared for a long time, heard the shout and released his Lightning Release
ninjutsu!
Dozens of needle-like electric
currents shot from his mouth, heading straight for Kiba and Morino Shinsuke.
The speed of the Lightning Release
was incredibly fast. In just an instant, these lightning needles rushed near
Kiba and Morino Shinsuke. At this time, the strong man's right hand chopped
down while his left hand swept, two bolts of lightning flashing vertically and
horizontally.
"Dang dang dang dang!"
Amid the sharp sounds of swords
clashing, sword lights and lightning sword lights crossed!
"Boom!"
The ninja knife slashed into the
ground, cracking it immediately. The current splashed and spread all the way.
"Chi chi chi!"
The lightning needles pierced Kiba
and Morino Shinsuke. Amidst the hissing sound, the lightning flickered and
instantly joined together.
Kiba and Morino Shinsuke,
enveloped in the lightning, looked at the strong man in shock, while Kiuchi
Taketo's fist was about to hit the strong man's face.
In the strong man's pupils, Morino
Shinsuke's ninja sword had broken into two pieces. Blood sprayed from a knife
mark on his chest, and he had been fatally injured. As for Kiba, he was even
more terrifying—split in half with a knife.
Didn't expect this! This is my trump card! Attaching
lightning chakra to the weapon, you who have stayed in the Land of Iron
probably don't know it. The samurai in the Land of Iron also have similar
skills, but mine is stronger, faster, and sharper!
This is why Bi-sama chose me to deal with you!
I am also a master of swordsmanship, and my
lightning attribute can better play my swordsmanship! It is only used at this
time, just to kill you by surprise!
The strong man's eyes were filled
with pride. The next moment, his expression changed.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Just when he turned his thoughts
away, the bodies of Morino Shinsuke and Kiba suddenly exploded into white mist.
Shadow Clones!
However, it wasn't these two
shadow clones that changed his color.
Instead, it was a punch from
Kiuchi Taketo!
"Boom!"
Muffled skin and flesh, strange
power... explodes!
"Crack!"
The strong man only felt an
indescribable force coming from Kiuchi Taketo's fist. The moment the fist hit
him, he almost heard the sound of his facial bones breaking. Blood oozed from
his mouth, nose, and eyes immediately. The punch was so powerful that even his
facial features were squeezed together.
A smile bloomed on Kiuchi Taketo's
face, the strong man saw it with one last glance.
This is impossible!
This smile was exactly the same as
the smile of that cunning kid when he succeeded in his scheme!
The moment he thought about it,
his whole body spun and was sent flying, like an arrow off the string.
As he flew out, his eyes went
pitch black.
The strong man was directly sent
flying by Kiuchi Taketo, far away from the cliff, finally falling into the deep
cliff.
Immediately, the remaining two Kumo
nin and the Kumo nin who used ninjutsu slowly widened their eyes, horrified
expressions appearing on their faces!
What happened? Why was Lord Moroi... sent flying by
this brat?
Impossible!
This is absolutely impossible!
At this moment, Kiuchi Taketo's
form exploded into a white mist. The white mist quickly dissipated, revealing
Kiba.
Transformation Jutsu!
The cloud ninjas immediately
understood. This insidious little ghost had transformed into the sword-wielding
kid with the Transformation Jutsu.
When the cloud ninjas stared in
horror, on the other side of the cliff, a figure suddenly rushed out, charging
at the three cloud ninjas. Twelve sword lights bloomed in their hands.
Double Sparrow Triple Flash!
Oops!
The Kumo nin were startled, but it
was too late. By the time they realized it, blood had already gushed out from
their chests, sprinkling from mid-air.
This is impossible... we, we lost...
Unwilling and resentful, the Kumo
nin's eyes slowly darkened, and then they couldn't feel anything.
At this moment, with a clang,
Morino Shinsuke's ninja sword was sheathed, and the three cloud ninjas behind
him fell slowly, splashing blood everywhere.
He wiped the blood from his face,
slowly turning his head to look at the seven-year-old boy who landed on the
ground, clenching his fist.
His eyes were full of shock!
Kiba... What a terrifying genius!
Such an imaginative tactic, can a battle between
ninjas be carried out like this?
Kiba let out a long breath,
walking slowly to the edge of the cliff and looking down.
On the cliff's face, three traces
drawn by kunai extended for two meters. At the end of the crack, three kunai
were deeply inserted. The kunai on the left and right seemed to be pressed by
some force. Though deeply embedded in the rock wall, they were at an oblique
angle. The middle kunai's end was held by a boy.
A sixteen or seventeen-year-old
man was held in this boy's arm, holding the kunai tightly in one hand. Beads of
sweat rolled down his forehead, blood dripping from his chest.
"Kuichi, can you hold
on?" Kiba asked the boy.
Kiuchi Taketo looked up at Kiba, a
super reluctant smile forming at the corner of his mouth.
"Ah, holding on... is it
resolved?"
Kiba gave a thumbs up, "It's
resolved, I'll pull you up right now!"
"Okay!"
The voices of the two teenagers
spread far, startling a group of birds, fluttering up from the virgin forest
below the cliff, flying leisurely towards a certain direction
