****************
There were five major countries in the Ninja world, and countless smaller countries among them.
Although nominally equal, these minor countries would not dare offend ninjas from the five great nations.
After learning that Colt and the others were ninjas from Konohagakure, the nobleman hurriedly invited them in.
Furthermore, once he heard that the Rain Shinobi Village had ninjas coming to assassinate him, he was almost scared to death.
"Ninja-san, please help me. I can give you as much as you want!"
Faced with a life-and-death crisis, the so-called nobles performed worse than the commoners.
Colt and the old man were placed in a room next to the nobleman to prevent Aoi's sneak attack.
Since he had nothing to do, Colt placed Kaminari on his lap and began practicing sword meditation, a training method taught by Kosuke to understand Kenjutsu. It sounded mysterious, but it involved using meditation to empty the mind and improve one's spirit.
After Colt tried it twice before, his swordsmanship level didn't improve much, but the feeling of having an empty and undistracted heart made him very comfortable. So, every night before going to bed, he would practice sword meditation.
Unfortunately, just as he entered that state, there was a strange movement on the roof.
"Your sneak skill is too bad, can you still be called a Jōnin like this?" Colt opened his eyes and disappeared from the room.
On the roof, Aoi Rokusho was running with three Rain Shinobi Village ninjas. At that moment, these people suddenly saw someone appear in front of them. The man was holding a long sword, blocking their path.
"Sorry, no one can move past this point." Colt used one hand to do a seal before his cheeks inflated slightly.
"Fire Style: Dragon Flame Jutsu!"
The dark night sky was illuminated by light all of a sudden.
Aoi and the others did not expect this person to launch an attack without a word, leaving no room for them to dodge.
Aoi hurriedly took out a sword hilt and poured in Chakra.
The golden Raijin No Ken appeared, splitting the fire dragon with one swing. But just as he felt proud, the divided fire dragon formed two smaller dragons and rushed towards the other two Rain Shinobi.
"What!"
Screams came, and the scorching high temperature directly burned one person to death, while the other narrowly escaped with the Body Replacement Technique, but was still a step too slow, losing his right arm.
"Bastard!" Aoi looked at Colt viciously, realizing he had been deceived.
"Tsk, so that's why people don't use fire release techniques for sneak attacks." Today's Colt finally understood why it was so hard to kill Fire Style. Although the attack area was wide, and the lethality was good, the speed was still too slow. Even with a surprise hit, one person still escaped.
Aoi understood that today's assassination operation had been exposed, and the task could only be completed by eliminating the unsightly little devil in front of him.
He reached out and threw the umbrella behind him into the air, the umbrella surface opened, and countless thousands of senbons shot out. This was a common attack method of the Rain Shinobi, shooting hundreds of thousands of weapons at the enemy simultaneously, making it impossible to guard against, especially at night with limited visibility.
It was a pity that Colt couldn't be measured as a normal ninja.
His Sharingan appeared, and all the movements of the thousand senbons were captured by its powerful insight.
His sword, Kaminari was thus unsheathed, slashed, and swept across the room, moving as fast as lightning, blocking all the thousands of books.
Although a random Wind Style ninjutsu could perfectly stop these weapons, this was so much more cool!
The sword's body drooped, and a dazzling electric current shone on it. Colt leaned forward and rushed at the uninjured ninja, slashing with his blade. Of course, the ninja wouldn't sit still, as he raised the kunai in his hand to block.
Aoi wielded the Raijin No Ken, wanting to double-team Colt.
However, Colt reached the ninja quickly, and when facing his Kaminari, the kunai was no different from a piece of tofu, unable to withstand even half a second before being split in two, along with its master.
Aoi also rushed in front of Colt, holding up the Raijin No Ken and swinging it heavily!
As a former Konoha special Jōnin, his physical skills were still good, and with the blessing of the Raijin No Ken, even Kosuke wouldn't dare to fight him recklessly.
A flash of cold light!
Before Aoi could exert his strength, Colt turned around and kicked, causing his body to fly backwards uncontrollably.
Boom! Boom!
The roof was directly penetrated, and the wooden beams were instantly broken.
"And for the last one." Colt didn't immediately pursue Aoi, but saw the last ninja and rushed to kill him.
'Escape! Run away!'
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Aoi endured the severe pain and ran out of the house without looking back.
This Konoha kid was too strong; he was not his opponent at all. As for the task or anything else, it had been completely forgotten. At this time, Aoi just wanted to escape; survival was everything for him.
Colt didn't even look at him. And split the last ninja from the Rain village.
He then threw Kaminari out of his hand, and under the control of 'Ten No Shiso', he made an accurate hit at the fleeing coward.
Aoi had no room to resist at all. He was nailed to death, and the Raijin No Ken in his hand fell weakly to the ground.
Looking at the dead body, Colt took out a seal scroll and sealed it inside. This was also one of the mission objectives.
The Third Hokage wanted to get more information about the Rain Shinobi Village from Aoi. As for how to get information from the body, that depended on the methods of Konoha's interrogation department.
After doing all this, he found Kosuke, who was protecting the noble. The division of labor between the two was clear: Colt was responsible for intercepting outside, while Kosuke was for the personal protection of the noble.
Seeing his appearance, Kosuke knew that everything outside was over. The nobleman was even more grateful and offered a large sum of money as a reward.
The two of them didn't refuse, as they just took the task to earn extra money. After solving all matters, they didn't delay much and returned to Konoha after taking a day off.
They handed over the corpse of Aoi, sealed in a scroll, to the Third Hokage and told the details of the mission.
The Third Hokage also gave Raijin No Ken to Colt as a quest reward.
It's just... looking at the Raijin No Ken in his hand, he was a little worried.
'This thing... a bit lackluster.'
