Capítulo 290: Chapter 290: Human Bombs
Kimimaro is no stranger to combat and fighting.
When he was in the Kaguya Clan of the Land of Water, young Kimimaro was regarded by his clansmen as a human shield and combat weapon, and was placed under house arrest.
Later, when the Kaguya Clan launched a coup and attacked the Hidden Mist Ninja Village, Kimimaro, as a secret weapon, was released to fight against the Mist Ninjas. The entire clan was exterminated, and he survived only because he was ill and unable to participate in the battle.
After encountering Yu and Haku, and under Yu's careful guidance for two years, Kimimaro, with his exceptional combat talent, was elevated to a whole new level as a combat weapon.
Although now only seven or eight years old, Kimimaro, utilizing his Kekkei Genkai Shikotsumyaku, displayed formidable Taijutsu that was not only ruthless and decisive but also without a single superfluous movement. These ordinary Grass Ninjas were quickly overwhelmed and killed by him.
"Kekkei... Kekkei Genkai!!"
"This kid is using a Kekkei Genkai!!"
Soon, as their comrades fell one after another at Kimimaro's hands, the group of Grass Ninja present finally began to panic. Someone recognized that the cold, white-haired kid before them was using the rare Kekkei Genkai of the Ninja world.
"Haku, go help Kimimaro finish off these guys quickly."
Noticing that some of the Grass Ninja seemed to have recognized Kimimaro's Kekkei Genkai, Yu instructed Haku to go support Kimimaro.
After all, among these Grass Ninja, there were occasionally some with Chunin-level strength. It would be a bit too strenuous for Kimimaro to handle so many Ninjas by himself. This also provided a good opportunity to temper Haku's combat will.
"Yes, Yu-sama."
Although Haku's nature was still somewhat soft-hearted, he could not disobey Yu's orders. After a brief hesitation, he disappeared from his spot.
"Ice Release: Swallow Snow Storm!!"
When Haku reappeared, he was already beside Kimimaro. One hand's kunai blocked an attack from a Grass Ninja aimed at Kimimaro, while the other hand quickly formed seals.
The perfect combination of Wind and Water Chakra Nature Transformations within his body caused snow to fall out of thin air on the surrounding grassland.
Bang, bang, bang...
Before the Ninjas could react to the beautiful scene, countless snowflakes in the air instantly transformed into numerous sharp, spinning ice shurikens, swiftly flying towards and taking down a large group of Ninjas.
"Well done, Haku."
Watching Haku's elegant yet powerful Kekkei Genkai Ice Release Ninjutsu, Yu nodded in satisfaction.
Compared to Kimimaro's progress over the past two years, Haku's improvement was no less impressive. In fact, his talent in Ninjutsu gave him an unparalleled advantage. The only thing he needed to continue refining was his overly soft and gentle nature.
These Grass Ninjas seemed to be mere vanguards sent by the Grass Ninja Village, lacking significant strength. In the seamless cooperation between the two young fighters, Haku and Kimimaro, they were almost completely wiped out in just over ten minutes.
"Huff... huff..."
Looking around at the numerous Ninjas lying on the grass and wailing in pain, Haku and Kimimaro leaned against each other, slightly panting.
To defeat so many Ninjas at once, all of whom were at least Genin or even Chunin level, they had undoubtedly pushed their limits once again.
"Yu-sama, we've finished them off..."
Just as Kimimaro was about to speak after he and Haku had taken down all the surrounding Ninjas, he suddenly noticed something strange. The fallen Ninjas were eerily getting back up.
"What is this...?"
It wasn't just Kimimaro; even Haku, who was leaning back-to-back with him, widened his eyes in astonishment. He saw a Ninja, who he had clearly killed by slashing his throat with a kunai, standing up again like a walking corpse!
"Argh!!"
Emitting zombie-like sounds, one after another, not only the Grass Ninjas killed by Haku and Kimimaro but also those who had been killed by the Grass Ninjas in earlier battles were all standing up again.
The previously normal eyes now emitted a terrifying red glow. Hundreds of dead Ninjas stood up again, shuffling like zombies and gradually surrounding the three of them. The scene was extremely horrifying and eerie.
"You two, be careful!!"
Seeing the strange change in the corpses of the surrounding Ninjas and noticing that Haku and Kimimaro were gradually being surrounded by countless Ninja corpses, Yu moved swiftly and instantly disappeared from his spot.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!
A series of intense explosions erupted. The countless Ninja corpses surrounding Haku and Kimimaro began oozing black, mud-like substances from their wounds. The bodies swelled and expanded until they exploded violently!
"Water Release: Body Flicker!!"
Utilizing the water environment created by Haku's earlier Water Release Ninjutsu, Yu used the Water Release: Body Flicker technique to rescue Haku and Kimimaro just moments before the explosions reached them.
"To silently create so many human bombs in front of me..."
"Such a unique ability... it seems you're not an ordinary Ninja..."
The ground beneath their feet trembled continuously. After teleporting with Haku and Kimimaro to the side, Yu watched as the corpses of hundreds of Ninjas exploded one after another. His eyes narrowed slightly, and his gaze instinctively shifted to the high mound nearby.
"That must be the Kekkei Genkai Shikotsumyaku, which allows free control of bones..."
"I heard that the Kaguya Clan was wiped out after launching a coup against the Hidden Mist Ninja Village in the Land of Water. I didn't expect a clansman to have survived."
Under Yu's Observation Haki, a mysterious man had appeared on the high mound not far away. He was dressed in a loose and luxurious robe, wore sandals, and had a pipe in his mouth.
The man had light ash-blonde hair parted in the middle, a pair of strange square-shaped red glasses on his face, and he stood there, having witnessed the entire battle between Haku and Kimimaro. Moreover, he was accompanied by a group of powerful Ninja guards.
"And Ice Release as well..."
"The once-renowned Yuki Clan of the Land of Water has long been in exile due to the Hidden Mist's oppressive policy of persecuting Kekkei Genkai Ninjas..."
As he spoke, the mysterious man's gaze shifted from Kimimaro to Haku. A gleam of excitement flashed in his eyes beneath the red square lenses. "I never expected to encounter two such rare Kekkei Genkai here today. How fortunate!"
"Fortunate? I think you're quite unfortunate..."
Noticing that the mysterious man seemed fixated on the Kekkei Genkai of Haku and Kimimaro, Yu's lips curled into a slight smile. "If I'm not mistaken, those human bombs just now were your handiwork, right?"
"If you prefer, you can think of them as a kind of fireworks display."
"My name is En Oyashiro. I'm a merchant specializing in collecting Kekkei Genkai. Are these two children your subordinates? Why not transfer them to me? I guarantee I'll give you a very satisfactory price."
As he introduced himself, the mysterious man slowly walked up to Yu, Haku, and Kimimaro. He removed his strange square-shaped glasses, revealing a pair of eerie eyes. His pupils were black with horizontal slit-shaped patterns, and the sclera was blood-red. Blood continuously streamed from his eyes in two shocking lines...
