Chương 66: Madman?
"Hidden Mist Jutsu?"
"Isn't that Zabuza's signature technique?"
"This is bad!"
During the battle with Hozuki Mangetsu, his astonishing speed allowed him to disappear once again, leaving Yoroi with a sinking feeling.
After all, the gap in power between Yoroi and Hozuki Mangetsu was vast. Mangetsu's sheer speed alone made it difficult for Yoroi to keep up. Furthermore, Mangetsu's use of the Hidden Mist Jutsu after vanishing, elevated the challenge even more!
Understanding the original story, Yoroi was well aware of the effects of the Hidden Mist Jutsu.
In short, almost every Mist Ninja could use the Hidden Mist Jutsu since its execution was not difficult. By using chakra to create a thick mist, the jutsu could be easily performed.
However, when combined with the Mist's unique Silent Killing technique, it became a terrifying assassination method!
Just like the rogue Mist Ninja Zabuza Momochi used against Kakashi Hatake, the Hidden Mist Jutsu paired with Silent Killing perfectly countered Kakashi's Sharingan, pushing the Leaf's top technician to the brink of danger.
Even though Hozuki Mangetsu was young, his reputation in the original story was formidable!
He was the only one among the legendary Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist who could wield all seven swords proficiently!
During the Fourth Great Ninja War, Mangetsu was resurrected by the Impure World Reincarnation and showcased the terrifying power of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, which deeply alarmed Yoroi, familiar with the original story.
With Mangetsu using Hidden Mist Jutsu and Silent Killing, Yoroi's pupils contracted slightly as the thick mist filled the area. Yoroi hadn't expected Mangetsu to master Silent Killing so proficiently!
As the mist thickened, Yoroi's sense of danger resonated in his mind, prompting him to retreat explosively using chakra.
Despite Yoroi's quick evasion, utilizing the Fourth Hokage's speed technique, he barely escaped Mangetsu's initial assassination attempt. However, a wet sensation on his face indicated that a line of crimson blood had begun to trickle down to the ground from his cheek!
"So fast!"
"Even worse, the Hidden Mist Jutsu combined with Silent Killing completely counters my fighting style."
"How did Mangetsu discover my weakness?"
Wiping the blood from his cheek, Yoroi's eyes filled with seriousness and a hint of bewilderment.
Clearly, Yoroi was curious about how Mangetsu knew that the combination of Hidden Mist Jutsu and Silent Killing was the perfect strategy against him.
Currently, Yoroi is significantly proficient in taijutsu and ANBU techniques. With accelerated training from the app, Yoroi has achieved remarkable results in ninjutsu, mastering the Nara clan's secret techniques, the Rasengan, and its advanced forms.
If Mangetsu had fought him using conventional means, Yoroi might still have had a slim chance.
But Mangetsu chose the perfect strategy to counter Yoroi, leaving him puzzled.
Even with the Fourth Hokage's wind-sensing technique, Yoroi's ability to sense his surroundings was limited to ten meters at most due to the lack of advanced wind chakra manipulation. Under Mangetsu's overwhelming power, even a three-meter radius of accurate sensing was a stroke of luck for Yoroi.
With Mangetsu using Hidden Mist Jutsu and Silent Killing, Yoroi's visual observation was nullified. Even using the Fourth Hokage's wind-sensing technique, the chakra-infused mist further reduced Yoroi's sensing range to a mere two meters.
Two meters! What could that do?
Given Mangetsu's speed, the moment he got within two meters of Yoroi, survival depended on luck.
Hence, Mangetsu's strategic choice to counter Yoroi left him feeling helpless!
Unbeknownst to Yoroi, Mangetsu chose this strategy based on Yoroi's earlier use of the Uchiha clan's shuriken techniques.
Mistaking Yoroi for an Uchiha due to his experience with Shisui Uchiha, Mangetsu instinctively used the Hidden Mist Jutsu to counter the Sharingan.
Mangetsu had no idea that Yoroi was from the Nara clan and didn't possess a Sharingan.
By sheer coincidence, Mangetsu's strategy perfectly countered Yoroi, targeting his weaknesses aggressively. As Yoroi used chakra bursts to evade several assassination attempts, blood continued to drip from his wounds, causing Mangetsu to smirk coldly and taunt from all directions:
"Kid, surviving this long under my Silent Killing technique is impressive!"
"But haven't you realized?"
"If my speed increases slightly, you'll be dead!"
"Look at your wounds!"
"Three cuts on your chest, two on your neck, and even one on your forehead!"
"In this condition, how much longer can you last?"
"Where will my blade land next?"
"Your throat? Heart? Forehead? Or the arteries in your arm?"
Mangetsu's voice increased Yoroi's pressure exponentially!
Humans typically need to see their surroundings to feel secure.
Losing visual capabilities abruptly, and being "blinded," would naturally induce panic.
Furthermore, Yoroi felt immense pressure from Mangetsu while "blinded."
His heart pounded, and his head felt like it was going to burst.
Mangetsu's voice succeeded in making Yoroi more anxious!
"Damn! If only I had mastered stronger wind release ninjutsu, a single wind jutsu could dispel this mist!"
"But even the Fourth Hokage's scrolls don't have a wind jutsu to counter the Hidden Mist Jutsu. What should I do now?"
"Should I wait silently for death under Mangetsu's Silent Killing?"
Inwardly cursing, Yoroi sensed danger again and evaded desperately, yet Mangetsu's blade still inflicted damage.
Blood dripped from Yoroi's arm onto the ground.
Mangetsu's latest attack had disabled Yoroi's arm!
Without timely treatment, Yoroi might bleed to death from the wound.
Mangetsu's delight increased with Yoroi's injury.
But as Mangetsu's voice taunted from the mist, and Yoroi's arm throbbed in pain, he felt dizzy from blood loss. Suddenly, Yoroi's eyes sparkled with determination.
In response to Mangetsu's taunts, Yoroi's injured face twisted into a faint smile, abruptly silencing Mangetsu's laughter!
Mangetsu, astonished, saw Yoroi close his eyes despite his injuries and blood loss!
"That guy…"
"Is that guy insane?"
