Chapter 130: Chapter 130: Obtaining the Hiramekarei
Fierce flames surged and rushed forward. Transforming into a raging sea of fire, it completely enveloped the entire pier. Several large ships were instantly devoured by the flames, and the intense fire even burned on the sea, creating obvious steam that lingered above the sea of fire...
"Damn Konoha bastards!"
With a roar, a huge wave quickly approached. A wave as tall as a small mountain swept over the burning ships. The giant wave extinguished the flames, but by this time, the wooden ships were already completely destroyed.
"Damn it!"
A thin man with white hair, pointed shark-like teeth, and a bandage around his neck jumped out with a grim expression.
Hozuki Mangetsu! The older brother of Hozuki Suigetsu, the peerless genius of the Hozuki clan, a member of the strongest generation of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist who was skilled in the use of the seven ninja swords and was known as the Second Coming of the Demon.
"It's him, the 'sword' that Danzo relies on... If it's this guy, who is one of the most powerful shinobi ever produced within Kirigakure, he would be a decent target."
Natsuo looked at the displeased Mangetsu and smiled faintly.
Mangetsu is an expert at the Kage level, not only is he proficient in the Hydrification Technique and Water Gun Technique, which are characteristic techniques of the Hozuki clan, but he is also proficient in the use of Silent Killing. In all of Kirigakure, the only person who can compare to him is Terumi Mei.
"The shinobis of Konoha..." Mangetsu's face turned ugly. "Daring to disturb my rest and ruin my mission... Are you prepared to die as compensation?" A thick killing intent spread from him.
The expression of Yugao and other of Natsuo's wives became serious. From this man, they felt an unparalleled sense of oppression. This man was very powerful!
Mangetsu's eyes were filled with killing intent. Suddenly, he noticed the clan emblem on Natsuo's back.
"Hmm? Looking at that emblem, you're a ninja from the Uchiha clan?" Mangetsu squinted his eyes. "As far as I know, the only remaining adult Uchiha in Konoha seems to be..."
"Uchiha Natsuo, you have quite the audacity!" Mangetsu revealed shark-like teeth and his eyes flickered with a dangerous gaze: "Does the Sharingan you possess give you enough audacity to attack the fleet I'm protecting?"
"Well, there was actually no information about you in the intelligence." Natsuo smiled faintly. "But I have received a mission to destroy the dock and ships here."
"It seems like you've been abandoned." Mangetsu paused for a moment upon hearing this, then immediately smiled. "The internal conflicts in your Konoha village are not much different from those in our Kirigakure!"
Mangetsu, a Kage-level expert who emerged from the Village of the Bloody Mist, had witnessed too many dirty things.
Although this is a port location selected by Kirigakure, it has not actually started construction. Mangetsu's mission is to accompany the transportation of building materials. Although the amount of building materials is large, they are not valuable and do not belong to war supplies. Even if they are destroyed, it would only affect the battle for a short period of time.
The ninjas of Konoha have had dealings with Kirigakure before, and their leaders must know what the newly established dock looks like. But they still sent Natsuo, a vice leader, to take action...
"Did you offend Danzo?" Mangetsu chuckled lightly.
"Yes." Natsuo nodded with a smile.
Mangetsu laughed heartily. "It's really pitiful. You know nothing and yet you encountered me..." He touched his chin. "Perhaps I should let you go back and watch you fight Danzo to the death?"
"But unfortunately..." Mangetsu's expression changed, and his sharp teeth revealed a hint of ferocity. "You actually attacked directly, causing my mission to fail!"
"If I don't return with your eyes to the village, how will the people in the village see me?!"
He suddenly lunged straight towards Natsuo. At the same time, his arm muscles swelled, becoming thicker than his thighs.
"Water Release: Great Water Arm Technique!"
Hozuki Mangetsu leaped high into the air, his fist the size of a sandbag coming down fiercely. With a fierce momentum, it was like a giant stone falling.
The faces of Yugao and the other Natsuo wives changed. Although they were not delicate flowers on an ivory tower, how could they resist the killing intent of a Kage level expert?
In an instant, their legs felt weak. And the most important thing was that, although Hozuki Mangetsu was yelling at Natsuo, his attack was directed at Yugao and the others.
Prioritize the removal of the weak! Otherwise, in a battle with a strong opponent, the weak could cause unexpected trouble.
Although Mangetsu was arrogant in his words, his actions were ruthless and completely calculated. He followed the most standard tactics of a ninja.
Seeing that his fist was about to fall, suddenly, a hand firmly grabbed his wrist.
"Hey, hey, they're just spectators, why involve them?" Natsuo sighed lightly. "Let's fight each other, can't you let them be a spectator... I brought them here to experience the aura of a Kage-level expert."
"But not to actually fight you."
This guy! Hozuki Mangetsu's pupils contracted, he exerted force on his wrist, forcefully breaking free. He took three steps back before looking at Natsuo with seriousness.
Whether it was the extremely powerful Fire Release from just now or his strength with which he casually grabbed her wrist, this guy… He wasn't as useless as the rumors said!
But listening to Natsuo's words, Mangetsu's expression slightly changed. "Uchiha Natsuo, are you saying that they won't attack me, so the only one attacking will be you alone?"
"That's right." Natsuo smiled. "It's just me."
"Do you think you're my equal?" Mangetsu couldn't help but laugh. "Even if you join forces with those kunoichi, you wouldn't be able to escape from my hands..."
"With just your Fire Release? Do you really think you can defeat me?" His voice suddenly grew louder. "Who do you think I am?!" Mangetsu roared in anger.
He suddenly pulled out a scroll. The next second!
[Bang!]
Great Twin Blades - Hiramekarei!
One of the mystical swords of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist, that has been passed down from generation to generation amongst the group's members since the First Mizukage's era.
Although it is called twin blades, it is actually a single blade with two handles, making it convenient for dual-handed use.
Surging chakra flowed out from Mangetsu's hand, enveloping the entire body of the Hiramekarei in a pale blue chakra, forming a shape resembling a large sword.
However, in the next second...
A Chakra-covered hand gripped the Hiramekarei tightly.
Mangetsu's face changed instantly.
But before Mangetsu could react Natsuo threw a punch. Then his figure was thrown into the air as he spit out blood.
After his body fell heavily to the ground, the immense force caused him to slide across the ground until he finally fell into the water.
Natsuo waves his hand, casually waving the Hiramekarei, then smiles towards the beach. "So now can you tell me who you think you are?"
"Hmm? Escaped, huh?" Natsuo raises an eyebrow. "Impressive for a Kage-level, very decisive."
He's not stupid! With the ninja sword taken away and himself being so easily suppressed, what's the point of fighting now?
"Too bad, but it seems like he left his sword... Oh well, I'll give it to Ameyuri later." Natsuo sighed lightly, then sealed the Hiramekarei and put it in a storage scroll.
Everything happened so fast that Yugao and the others only had time to react.
"Natsuo, that Kiri shinobi..."
"He escaped." Natsuo shrugged.
Natsuo could sense Mangetsu's location, but according to Ameyuri, both Mangetsu and herself belonged to Terumi Mei's group and were loyal to Kirigakure, so Natsuo deliberately showed mercy.
Other Kiri shinobi didn't matter, but Mangetsu was a Kage level expert. If he died in Natsuo's hands, it would be a huge blow to Terumi Mei and Kirigakure.
Of course, Ameyuri's plea came at a price, although there was nothing she could do now that she was pregnant. But this debt would be repaid with interest after she gave birth. Furthermore, after he obtained the last rewards for the birth of the triplets, a new plan for Terumi Mei and Kirigakure began to form in his mind.
"Did he escape?" Yugao widened his eyes.
"Don't idealize Kage-level experts." Natsuo shook his head. "Kage level experts are also human. They can feel fear, hatred, failure and lust. Furthermore, reaching that level means that they have gone through countless battles, so when it comes to avoiding danger they are the most decisive."
Natsuo's wives were stunned for a while by what had just happened, but then they recovered and talked among themselves for a while.
"Okay, okay, the mission is complete." Yugao said to reassure the women increasingly excited by Natsuo's strength. "We can go back now."
However, upon hearing her words, Natsuo showed a slight smile.
"Go back? No, it's still early."
"We still need to deal with the people behind us..."
At the same time, Danzo was waiting calmly with Aburame Torune and Yamanaka Fu in the forest three kilometers from the dock, awaiting the outcome of the battle.
"Fu, is there still no result?" Danzo asked.
"Danzo-sama, the distance is too far. With my abilities, I can only faintly sense some residual waves..." Yamanaka Fu hesitated. "But it seems that the battle has already calmed down, the energies have become much softer."
Aburame Torune pondered for a moment and then asked: "Danzo-sama, should we get closer?"
If the distance is too far, even Yamanaka Fu, a top-level sensory ninja, cannot obtain much information.
"Don't rush." Danzo remained calm, closed his eye and rested, his voice calm and unperturbed.
"Hozuki Mangetsu is a Kage-level expert, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. His strength should not be underestimated... If we get closer, there is a risk of being detected by him."
"Stay calm!"
"Yes!" "Yes!"
After a pause, Aburame Torune said: "But Danzo-sama, we shouldn't have any problems with using others to kill Natsuo, but what about the Sharingan? Shouldn't we get it back?"
After all, that is a dojutsu belonging to Konoha.
"Don't worry about such trivial matters... Konoha doesn't need a pair of Sharingan." Danzo slowly opened his eye, his voice calm.
He didn't actually have any personal animosity towards Natsuo. In fact, he didn't feel much about Natsuo. His dislike was only directed towards the Uchiha clan.
At this moment, apart from Natsuo, he didn't even think about gaining any benefits for himself. He already had too many Sharingan, most of the eyes of the Uchiha clan during their heyday, ending up in his hands after the clan massacre.
Just a simple pair of three tomoe, although it was not something common and ordinary, but he had several only on his arm. And at the Root Headquarters he had many more in reserve. It wasn't worth taking risks just for a pair of Sharingan. As for after using all the Sharingan in his possession...
"There are still many Sharingan in Konoha." Danzo's old face revealed a smile. "There are a lot of children within the Uchiha clan, and their talents seem to be quite good."
"Although the evil Uchiha should all die, the young children are very suitable to join our Root."
The younger the child, the easier to brainwash. Currently, aside from Natsuo, the oldest Uchiha is Sasuke. After that, there are Natsuo's children who haven't even reached the age of going to ninja school yet. Aren't they the best options to join the Root?
"Torune, make a note of it, after the war is over, we can try to use the children of the Uchiha clan to see if they can accommodate the cells of the First Hokage Senju Hashirama..." Danzo's old face showed a hint of anticipation.
"If the Senju and Uchiha combine, the strength would be incredible..."
"Although there will definitely be sacrifices in the experiment, Natsuo has quite a few children."
"A small sacrifice, it's worth it. It's all for Konoha..." Before he could continue speaking, his expression suddenly changed.
At the same time, Yamanaka Fu's expression also changed.
Aburame Torune wanted to ask his companions what was happening, but suddenly realized something was wrong and looked towards the coast.
A giant figure in armor appeared out of nowhere on the dock. He was tens of meters tall and wielded a sword. With both hands gripping the sword, he fiercely swung it down. A sharp sword energy pounced towards them!
