Chapter 41 White Tooth asked me to send my greetings to everyone
The Akatsuki members who appeared were also in poor condition; they had been chasing the wildfire all along, and their faces were blackened by smoke.
However, compared to the disheveled members of the Roots, they were undoubtedly the ones who had the advantage of being well-rested and waiting for the enemy to tire themselves out.
Crow Feather had taken off his shirt because he was so hot, revealing his well-defined pectoral and abdominal muscles.
He quickly formed four hand seals, then drew the katana from his back.
The knife is drawn, and the fire ignites!
Flames clung to his blade, and with a single slash, the arc of flames, like an extended blade of light, surged and blazed fiercely towards the Root ninja shaman in front of him!
Karasu was one of the first Akatsuki members to acknowledge and follow Shiba Kiyokawa, so Shiba Kiyokawa never hesitated to share his swordsmanship insights with him.
After obtaining ninjutsu from the Uchiha clan, Shiba Kiyokawa taught him many fire-style techniques.
Once, when Shiba Kiyokawa saw that he was quite talented in swordsmanship and fire release techniques, he casually suggested that he try attaching flames to the blade, so that every strike would be full of fire and explosion, which might have a miraculous effect.
At the time, Shiba Kiyokawa mentioned it casually on a whim, but unexpectedly, a few days later, Karasuha actually gained some insights from it!
Now that he has unleashed his self-created Fiery Blade Technique, even the well-informed Root ninjas in Konoha are dumbfounded.
However, at the same time, the desperate root forces also launched their own counterattack!
Luo, the most ruthless member of the group, was the first to target Shiba Kiyokawa.
"So it was you who plotted against us?!"
He ripped off his mask, wiped the sweat from his brow, and roared as he lunged at Shiba Kiyokawa!
Root members are not allowed to remove their masks when performing normal missions, so as to avoid exposing their true identities.
Luo's move was tantamount to burning his boats; he was determined to silence the boy in front of him!
He'd had enough of tonight's frustration!
As he charged forward, he rapidly formed hand seals, plotting in his mind what cruel method he could use to tear the boy in front of him to pieces.
Just as he was about to complete the ninjutsu with the last hand seal, the calm and composed young man in the distant firelight suddenly appeared in front of him as if he had teleported!
It's an illusion!
Shiba Kiyokawa added illusion magic!
He used illusion magic to obscure his opponent's perception of distance!
Although it has no actual killing effect, it is unexpected and makes the opponent extremely uncomfortable!
This is Shiba Kiyokawa's understanding of illusion: good illusion is not only that which kills with its eyes; sometimes, unintentional deception and misdirection are more practical than pure killing!
At that moment, Shiba Kiyokawa slashed down with his sword. Due to misjudging the distance, Raku completely miscalculated the timing of the engagement and was immediately caught in a dilemma.
Continuing to complete the hand seals is a gamble on whether the sword or the ninjutsu will be faster in a single step.
He still didn't dare to gamble.
Because within a single step, Shiba Kiyokawa's sword is both ruthless and swift!
Helpless, he had no choice but to abandon the hand seals, stop and retreat, while simultaneously pulling a kunai from his ninja tool pouch at his waist and holding it in his hand.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
Immediately, a series of crisp clanging sounds erupted through the forest.
Luo retreated step by step, while constantly using kunai to block Shiba Kiyokawa's slashes.
At first, he didn't take the Rain Ninja brat in front of him seriously at all.
While blocking, he didn't forget to provoke her.
"You wouldn't happen to be that runaway Shimura brat that Lord Danzo is looking for, would you?"
After several moves, his expression gradually turned serious. He had no choice but to use his other hand to grab a kunai, and his two hands were forced to take turns blocking.
His words also began to reveal a hint of surprise and uncertainty.
"Kid, what kind of swordsmanship is that?! You're not from the Shimura family!"
After several more moves, the sweat on Luo's face and the back of his head became even more concentrated, and the constant dripping of sweat from his forehead forced him to squint his eyes.
He kept changing his footwork in an attempt to widen the distance, but he was never able to do so.
His tone changed from initial surprise and doubt to complete terror.
"Damn brat! You really want to kill me?! Stop! Ryoma, save me!!"
Ryoma Aburame could only send a ninjutsu attack from a distance to provide support.
"Wind Release: Vacuum Ball!"
However, as a member of the Aburame clan, Ryoma Aburame possesses most of his strength in insects, making his level of conventional ninjutsu rather unusable.
Shiba Kiyokawa completely ignored the wind-style bullets flying towards him.
The vacuum jade pierced through his left shoulder, but he didn't even blink, and his right hand continued to smoothly swing the sword down!
"Pfft!"
The same knife struck Luo's left shoulder. The two were injured in the same location, but the severity of their injuries was worlds apart!
The Vacuum Jade only pierced through Shiba Kiyokawa's shoulder, but his sword slashed deep into Raku's shoulder blade, penetrating all the way into his chest cavity!
Luo's pupils immediately dilated to their maximum size.
In a daze, he finally remembered where he had seen this kind of swordsmanship before.
"This is... White Fang's... Why do you know it?"
Although Shiba Kiyokawa had never actually crossed paths with Konoha's White Fang Hatake Sakumo, at this moment he still raised the corners of his mouth and gave the person in front of him a bright smile, drawing his sword while not forgetting to kill his spirit.
"White Fang, who is far away in the Pure Land, asked me to send my greetings to everyone in the Root Clan. When you drove him to his death with rumors, did you ever imagine that this day would come?"
Blood gushed from his split chest, but it couldn't hide the shock in Luo's eyes.
In his last moments before collapsing backward, he weakly asked, "How did you know? Who... are you?"
Root Jonin, codenamed Luo, confirmed dead!
At that moment, the already dwindling morale of the Root members plummeted to rock bottom!
At the critical moment of life and death, Ryoma Aburame unleashed his full power, forcibly manipulating insects to simultaneously envelop all the Akatsuki members who had appeared!
But the next moment he was greeted only by three perfectly synchronized shouts.
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
Ryoma Aburame swore that he had never hated the Uchiha clan's signature ninjutsu as much as he did now!
He quickly pulled the swarm back.
The number of insects that were actually burned to death was not actually that many, but they still felt intense pain all over their bodies.
The insects he was raising are rioting!
Even though they managed to dodge the oncoming fireball, fire was now breaking out all around them, and the swirling fire snakes were a challenge even for ninjas, let alone the insects!
They are protesting vehemently against themselves, unwilling to work in this environment.
They even threatened him to run away from the inferno or they would turn on him, their owner.
It can be said that Shiba Kiyokawa chose the right battle environment. If it weren't for this sea of fire, the few of them might not have been a match for Konoha's elite Jonin and the highest commander of Root!
"Damn it! At least, at least we should eliminate those weaker ones first, that boy who looks like Shimura, and the one with the fire sword as our last resort." Even in such an extremely unfavorable situation, Aburame Ryoma was still trying his best to think of a solution.
But the next moment, something even more despairing happened—
Shiba Kiyokawa first pressed his right hand on his injured left shoulder to heal himself, then stretched his left hand in front of Masuda Kazuki, who had just been injured while trying to hold back the other members of Root, and said in a hard tone.
"Bite my hand, quick."
Although Masuda Kazuki was puzzled, he didn't dare to ask any more questions. He closed his eyes and opened his mouth to bite.
The next moment, both sides present were shocked, watching as Masuda Kazuki's injuries healed rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Now, Ryoma Aburame's heart sank even deeper.
