Chapter 56 Ai appears, run!
Chapter 56 Ai appears, run!
With a crack, the table was smashed to pieces by a punch.
"Damn it, are those Kirigakure bastards going to start a war?!"
With dark skin, light yellow hair, and a very strong physique, Ai withdrew his fist, his anger still burning.
As the son of the Third Raikage, the powerful A is currently in charge of commanding the Cloud Ninja's border patrol forces.
Just now, he received two pieces of bad news in a row.
Firstly, the Cloud Ninja's stronghold in the Land of the Moon was completely destroyed. Based on analysis, the enemy was likely the Mist Ninja.
Secondly, Kushimaru Kurihara, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, appeared on the border of the Land of Lightning and attacked the Cloud Ninja.
Based on this information, A directly targeted the Mist Ninja.
A Cloud Ninja reported: "According to our intelligence, Kuroda Hiroki contacted Kirigakure some time ago, and now it's possible that Kirigakure's reinforcements have arrived."
The logic has formed a closed loop, and the truth has come to light!
"Hmph! Immediately send out reconnaissance ninjas to find these bastards. This time, I'll personally take action and resolve all the problems in one fell swoop!"
"Yes!"
Soon, a large number of Cloud Ninjas flocked in and searched the Land of the Moon. They quickly discovered Kushimaru Kurihara and Mikami, and began to follow, obstruct, and harass them to buy time for their main force to arrive.
"Damn it, these guys are never going to stop!"
On the overgrown wasteland, Kushimaru Kurishari killed a Cloud Ninja and was already feeling impatient.
Mi Shou wiped the blood off his face, jumped onto a rock, and looked into the distance. He saw the emerald green sea and a small dock in the distance.
We'll be at our destination soon.
The two rushed toward the dock, boarded the ship that had been prepared, and were about to leave when they suddenly heard a thunderous sound in the distance.
The two men's expressions changed, and they immediately jumped off the boat and stood on the sea.
Rumble! Rumble!
"Righteous thunder axe!"
On the distant horizon, Ai, surrounded by lightning, hurtled down like a meteor, his right foot striking the ship directly.
Pfft!
The ship was shattered, and debris flew everywhere.
The seawater exploded, waves crashed one after another, and the waves surged.
Mi Shou stood on the sea and was almost overturned by the fierce waves. He took several steps back before he could regain his balance, and he was very frightened.
"Such powerful strength! Who has arrived?"
Then, Mi Shou looked up and saw Ai, who was dark-skinned and strong, in front of him, and he cursed inwardly.
This Kiichiro didn't say that the future Fourth Raikage would come after us!
This is going to kill me.
At that moment, Kiichiro, who was running, suddenly sneezed.
"This must be Mikami cursing me. I hope I can make it in time! Hang in there, Mikami!"
Ninjas have a strong sense of secrecy, and Ai had only recently become the commander of the guard force, so Kiichiro was initially unaware of this information.
In the past few days, the Cloud Ninja have been mobilized in large numbers to search for the trail of the Mist Ninja. Out of curiosity, Oniichiro went deeper to investigate and learned that Ai was here.
Upon learning of this, Kiichiro disregarded his grain trading business and went to support Mimori.
At this time, A was relatively young and had not yet made a name for himself in the ninja world. So even though A was surrounded by lightning and looked imposing, Kushimaru Kurihara was not afraid and instead mocked him.
"What an arrogant young man, coming here alone to die. It seems you have no idea how powerful the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist are!"
Seeing that Kurihara Kushimaru wasn't seizing the time to escape, but instead was delusional enough to think he could defeat Ai, Mikami almost laughed in exasperation.
Even though Ai is young now, his strength is definitely very strong.
Even if, hypothetically, Kushimaru Kurihara and Mikami could barely contend with A, what good would it do?
The Cloud Ninja's troops are likely nearby and could come to their aid at any time. If that happens, they won't be able to leave even if they want to.
Therefore, Mikami decided that the situation was hopeless, so he decisively sold the Kurihara Kushimaru and fled for his life.
"Die!"
Ai glanced at Mikami and figured he wasn't strong enough to be easily crushed, so he charged towards Kurehagi with lightning.
"Shockingly brutal!"
A concentrated his Lightning Release chakra into his right hand, raised his right arm high, and slashed down fiercely towards Kushimaru's head with the force of a thunderbolt, intending to split Kushimaru in two.
Ai's attack was too fast, which greatly surprised Kushimaru. Kushimaru immediately retreated to dodge, but he was not afraid at all. Instead, he snorted coldly.
"Hmph! Longsword Ninja Art: Earth Spider Sewing!"
From underwater, steel wires shot out and instantly wrapped around Ai's legs.
"Hehe, got you!"
With a tug, Kushimaru gripped the sewing needle, and the wire snapped taut, as if to tear Ai's legs apart into pieces of flesh and blood.
Ai completely ignored the steel wire on his leg and continued to punch Kushimaru.
At the same time, lightning surged on Ai's legs. The steel wire had just cut the skin on her legs, leaving only shallow red marks, and could not go any deeper.
Damn it!
Seeing that the wire couldn't harm the enemy, Kushimaru cursed loudly and then tried to retreat.
Unexpectedly, Ai suddenly raised his right foot, and the powerful force pulled the steel wire, directly pulling Kushimaru Kurihara in front of him. At the same time, Ai raised his right elbow, preparing to launch the final blow.
"Heavy Storm!"
Oops!
In Kushimaru's pupils, the elbow was getting closer and closer, about to hit his head, but he had no time to react.
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
At this moment, Mi Shou immediately activated his ninjutsu, and a ferocious water dragon charged towards Ai.
Ai frowned, furious that his attack had been interrupted. Without dodging, he threw a punch that shattered the water dragon bullet.
Although Mikami's attack failed, it delayed Ai for a moment, buying Kushimaru a chance to survive.
Kushimaru Kurihara immediately retreated, then turned and fled.
"retreat!"
Clearly, Kushimaru Kurihara already knew that A was a formidable opponent and that he was no match for him. Moreover, with reinforcements from the Cloud Ninja arriving at any moment, Kushimaru Kurihara recognized the reality and decisively chose a strategic retreat.
Without saying a word, Mi Shou also turned and fled.
"Don't even think about escaping from me! Lightning Clone Technique!"
Ai looked around, then created a lightning clone to chase after Misato, while he personally went to capture Kushimaru.
Kushimaru Kurihara, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, is a renowned elite Jonin of Kirigakure. Capturing Kushimaru Kurihara and seizing the longsword Sewing Needle would bring immense prestige to both A himself and the Cloud Ninja.
"Instantaneous Movement Technique!"
Ai's lightning clone instantly appeared behind Mi Shou and delivered a powerful punch, causing Mi Shou to dissipate. The lightning clone frowned.
"Shadow Clone Technique?!"
As early as when A attacked Kushimaru, Mikami used Shadow Clone Jutsu, and it was Shadow Clone Jutsu that was used to unleash the Water Dragon Bullet.
At this moment, Mi Shou had already returned to the shore from underwater.
"Without a boat, we can't return to Kirigakure. We'll have to hide in the Land of the Moon for now!"
However, he was discovered by a group of Cloud Ninja just a few minutes after he escaped.
"You're a Mist Ninja. Judging from your appearance, you should be a Chunin. I'm a Cloud Ninja Jonin. You have no chance to escape. Surrender now, or I'll kill you!"
The captain of the Cloud Ninja was very confident. After all, their team consisted of four people: one Jonin and three Chunin. How could they possibly be unable to deal with a mere Chunin from the Mist Ninja?
Mi Shou remained silent and drew his short sword.
