章 36: Beautiful and bloody mist (Part-1)
The beautiful mist that bathed Kirigakure in its beauty, obscured the truth of its state. As the scent of blood overwhelmed those outsides of the village.
Some were sent to a safe haven within a mountain in the confines of the village, whilst the brave few stood to quell the threat of the endless amount of invading Kiri shinobis.
Amongst those few was a shinobi who would be perceived as nothing but a child from afar. However, on closer inspection, the young teen — clad in black pants as well as sandals of the same color, along with a flak jacket of Kirigakure, with the hat that had "Mizukage" inscribed upon it in kanji writing—, was more than just a child.
He was once the glorious leader of the village that stood firm and was called the hero of Kirigakure. Now he is a mad demon, who is slaughtering every single Bloodline user in Kirigakure for apparently no reason whatsoever.
Yagura Karatachi, the powerful Mizukage of Kirigakure who single headedly killed more than 30 Bloodline users. As his army cheered for their mighty Kage... who is killing his own people.
Yagura pointed at a woman bathed in blood, "I believe she had a girl?"
"Yes sir, At least that's what the report says"
"Find her... Kill her at any cost"
"Yes sir"
...
(Next Day)
Cool breezes flew in from the south, gracing the fair-skinned man's face as the boat traveled north.
His rower, darker than he in skin hue, continued using his oars to propel the small rowboat towards their destination.
He glanced at the incoming land, This is not Kiri, These are not even the outskirts of the village. But this is the farthest he can reach, Something very wrong is going in Kiri. No one is allowed in through normal means, Not merchants, not water daimyo's men, Heck, Not even Daimyo himself can enter Kiri.
Not to mention, No one can get out either, The Young man only knows one person who was able to get out of here... alive. Zabuza and his people, after trying to assassinate Mizukage.
Why did they try to assassinate Mizukage? No one knows.
His rowboat docked, and the rower asked, "I can only drop you till here. Be careful though, Merchants like you are easiest to get lost in this bloody mist"
"Yes." Pulling his hood up, he stepped out onto the small island's snow. Now, Half of his face was covered in the black loose Hood of his black cloak.
"I'll take it from here", said the now hooded man
The rower nodded and rowed back as he disappeared in the beautiful Mist covering the area.
"..."
Only after the rower was out of his senses, the hooded man started making his move.
The air sparked around him, burning the snow a bit as light snow began to fall. It evaporated the snow before it even touched the man, "Now then, let's find out what is going on here", He muttered to himself
With that, he floats in the air, releasing the charge fields, magnetizing the air and snow, repelling himself from them into the air. He set his sights on his destination, a central island. The entrance to the outskirts of Kirigakure.
Hiding in the beautiful yet bloody mist.
It would not hide from him for long.
"Wait for me, Mei. I am coming for you"
As he breaks into Lightning and turned into a thunderbolt.
He was approaching at an amazing pace.
...
The damp forest was silent and covered in the beautiful hue, only disturbed by the rhythmic sounds of footsteps as the young man leaped from tree to tree.
The man in hood reached the last tree of the jungle, at last, looking at a small town near the border of the Land of Water and Land of Coves.
He stopped atop the tree, watching the large emissions of smoke came from it, and screams could be heard from afar. The Village was burning.
The Hooded man jumped down. His Light blue eyes drifted as he breaks into Lightning and turned into a thunderbolt. He charged towards the town as swiftly as he could.
XXXXXXXX
It was madness.
A platoon of the Kiri Army was attacking the Cove town. Civilians were being escorted out by a single shinobi, but that did not make them any safer. They knew any moment could be their last, the shinobi might as well die along with them.
"Kiri shinobis? Why are they attacking their own?", muttered the hidden Hodded man
"Lava Release"
!!!!
"Bloodline User?", Mutered the hooded man
The Bloodline user was quite strong as he was able to take out many shinobis in one single go, One must say... it was something.
This time, Reinforcements joined the forces. The bloodline user stands no chance against an entire army of Kiri Shinobis.
But in the nick of time, another platoon came as well.
"REBELS ARE HERE... KILL THE GIRL AND LET'S GET OUT OF HERE"
"YES"
"Rebels? and what girl?", The hooded man that was hiding till now look here and there to see a very little girl not even 2 yet from the looks of it. She was wearing rags and was covered in blood all over her, even her face was covered in dirt and tear marks, The only thing that was clean was her hair, that was changing colors every few seconds.
!!!!
"Another bloodline user? why is everyone trying to kill her?"
The town was in shambles, plumes of smoke rising the clash of techniques. Screams sounding from the clash of wills and fears.
Kirigakure shinobi, as well as the Rebel shinobi forces, somehow manage to push back the Kiri Forces, but this was truly an attack of epic proportions.
Even if the Rebel forces are pushing the Kiri shinobis back. It still won't last long, The difference in Number is quite heavy.
The rebels stand no chance in this battle.
*Rumble*Rumble
The Clouds crackled, and the Rainwater flows carrying the blood within it.
The bloody mist, The most beautiful Village in this entire world, covered in hue mist, where it rains most of the year... The village has such a pleasant view that anyone would get stunned by it. Yet, the village only carries the heavy scent of blood within it.
The consistent rain only makes it worse, as it amplifies the bloody smell of the blood.
*Rumble*Rumble
The Hooded man looks at the little girl who was carried by a Young man in rags and blood, as he was running, But the Kiri shinobi suddenly appeared behind the Young man as he was slashed from behind, Rebels were busy fighting for their life. The Kiri shinobi didn't stop to take a breather either as he hacked towards the crying and bloody little girl.
Sparks sang in the magnificent forest. Light flashed and the Hooded shinobi that was once there was gone.
In the next instant, He was above the Kiri shinobi trying to kill the girl.
BAM
He slammed the Head of the Kiri shinobi down.
The Arrival of the newest entry shocked everyone but they didn't stop fighting, In this battle the distraction means death.
The Little Girl looked up at the Hooded figure, with her big back eyes, as she pointed, "Are you, angel"
The hooded man laughed silently as he crouched in front of her, "why do you think so?", His tone was amusing and light.
She nodded, "Kaa san said that she is going to meet Tou chan and then they will send an Angel to come down and save little Yui"
"..."
"Where is you Tou chan?"
"He slept a year ago"
"..."
Taking a deep breath, the Hooded man caressed her dirty and bloody scratch full face with a gentle smile. As he nodded, "I am that angel... You Kaa san said that Yui Chan is a very good girl and will listen to everything"
The Girl beamed after confirming that this man is indeed an angel, "Yes, Yui is a good girl will listen to everything Angel nii chan says"
The hooded man chuckled and told her to hide behind those large stones. She immediately ran and did what she was told.
His gentle smile was gone at that moment as he turns around and swings his hand, The head of the charging Kiri shinobi who was coming at him from behind was severed in one clean motion.
He glanced at the fighting shinobis and there were heads rolling on the floor.
Everyone stopped for a moment, as they the man whose face was covered in a hood.
More than 30 shinobis lost their head simultaneously, not even a second was taken between the attack.
"Who are you?", one of them asked
"..."
"You speak when one asks you question idiot", A kiri Shinobi blurred in front of him and swing his sword using the momentum trying to cleave the head of the hooded man.
"..."
The attack hit no one.
As the Kiri shinobi stopped after taking a few more steps because of the momentum.
"..."
The Hooded Man was standing behind the Kiri shinobi doing nothing.
The Kiri shinobi fell to the ground, as his neck was sliced open with a little cut. Blood flows out from it, and he died almost immediately.
'what happened?'
That was the question in everyone's mind at that moment.
"He must be with these Rebellions prioritize him"
"YES"
"..."
"He must be sent by our Lady, Follow his lead"
"YES"
"..."
The man with his half-face covered with a black hood stands there doing nothing at all.
Many Shurikens and Exploding Kunais were thrown at him from all around.
"Stand down Trashes"
He raised his hand sideways. Focusing and coiling the currents around him to the extreme, The Hooded man generates the power of electromagnetism, and Electromagnetic Lightning, forming the lightning transformation with high magnetic properties.
Magnetizing the attack of shurikens and Exploding Kunais, The hooded man was able to guide and repel these for more powerful strikes. As they whizzed through the air, currents transformed into crescents as their sounds were weaponized as well against the Kiri shinobis, cutting them into many.
BOOOMMM
BOOOMMM
They couldn't attack him for they are trying to protect themselves against the all-around attack of this Lightning.
*Rumble*Rumble
The Bloody scent amplified through rain carried through the air of this bloody mist.
As the hooded man closed the fists on both hands. The current around him became even wilder than normal. Magnetizing the swords and Kunais and shurikens in Kiri Shinobis Hostlers as well as the metal plates on their body. Allowing themselves to become The hooded man's playthings, as he manipulated them into fighting their comrades.
Soon, the platoon's ranks were in disarray.
*Rumble*Rumble
Mass slammed against mass. Kiri shinobis fight against the Rebels in this death-match.
Now everyone was sure that the hooded man was with these Rebels, as they followed his lead and fight now equal battle.
The Hooded man on the other hand created chaos on the battlefield. Sending many Kiri shinobis into a section of the forest, an electrical explosion soon followed. The forest ablaze
The man that started this blaze was none other than Hatake Yasaki
[Duh]
With the civilians far enough from the battlefront, it was time to let loose for Rebel forces. Rebel forces now started fighting with their full strength.
As for him, His only priority is the little girl. As he stood in his original position. Keeping the track of the girl, who hiding behind the rock, in this hue mist.
Soon the mist started getting thicker. As it covered everything.
"..."
Nothing changed for Yasaki though, He was just standing in his place.
Yasaki raised his hand and like an extension of his hand, lightning morphed around Yasaki and a Black longsword appeared on his hand.
Someone charged at him and appeared through the mist as he tried to silently kill him.
The Kiri shinobi stabbed his head with a sword, but Yasaki merely tilted his head, The Kiri shinobi tried to swing his sword sideways to cleave his head.
But the attack went through and past him.
!!!
The attack completely missed as Yasaki simply stabbed his abdomen killing the man in the process.
He sensed something as he looks up, and suddenly four huge Water dragons were on his face trying to swallow him, as they came at him through the mist.
One must say, Kiri, is sure very good at silent killing.
"..."
Yasaki swayed a little and the attack wholly missed and destroyed the ground behind him covering him in the dust cloud.
!!!!!
'what the heck?'
The Shinobis who attacked Yasaki were shocked beyond extreme, Nothing they do is working, He is dodging nearly everything without even making an effort.
Inside the dust cloud, Yasaki's sword was covered in lightning
"Field of Raijin"
He slashed his sword upwards diagonally. As Lightning tears through the ground. Electrifying the battlefield.
The battlefield is clearly in the favor of Rebellions now.
The Death of Kiri shinobis is inevitable now.
With the war Cry, Kiri shinobis joined the fray and charged at him through the mist. If they are going down, they are going to take this one who completely turned their victory into a failure.
But to their surprise, Yasaki could sense everything in this mist. As he took a Long step forward, appearing way past the opponent, dodging all of their attacks in one single motion.
An enormous shockwave ripple through the pathway in its wake completely ripping open the chest area and exposing the vital organs. All the Kiri members that charged at him flew in many directions because of the shockwave and slammed onto the trees or walls.
Meanwhile, In the Lightning field, that was destroying everything. Yasaki swings his sword in wide slashes.
Deflecting any attacks coming at him, while countering at the same time.
Explosions and thunder racketed the town.
The Entire Kiri force was down.
The Rebel cheered while striking their weapons, The mist lightened as they looked for their savior.
But found no one.
They looked everywhere.
And the mist cleared enough to see everything. Kiri shinobis didn't find any hooded man.
"He seemed to have disappeared sir, What do we do", Someone asked
"There isn't much we can do. Each time we eliminate them, more of them come... All we can do is to escape. If it wasn't for the man sent by our lady we would have lost today again"
"..."
"Once our Lady is done with her plan, We will strike that Bastard Mizukage from the core..." said a middle-age man from the side
"Don't get impatient, things will happen when they are destined to happen, For now, let's regroup and retreat..!! get that little girl, and take her to her mother's funeral. She should at least see her while we are burying her"
"YES CAPTAIN"
"The Civilians take them to the sky island where all other civilians are", the leader said, before flickering into inexistence.
"SIR YES SIR"
The Rebellion army left carrying the little girl, as Yasaki appeared from behind the tree. And he watches the leaving Kiri forces. with the little girl and the civilians.
The little girl was telling other kids about the angel that came just to save her.
Yasaki chuckled, as he went into thoughts, "This Lady is gathering forces to fight Mizukage? why? who is this Lady? Maybe Mei is with these rebels as well? Maybe not? she was already top class Jonin when I last saw her, She must quite strong after all this time"
He scratched his head, "I need some answers before I can make my move"
Yasaki muttered as he vanished into nothing as well.
