Chapter 140: Killer B's Struggle

This slash was so powerful that it sliced through the cloud, leaving everyone below in cold sweat at its unmatched power.

Especially for Omoi, his mind went blank.

"Are you telling me this is possible with swordsmanship?"

Looking at the divided clouds, Omoi's legs were trembling.

This was the true strength of Mihawk. The huge octopus tentacles fell to the ground, raising an endless cloud of dust.

The entire area was covered in thick dust, and many buildings were reduced to rubble.

If the villagers hadn't been evacuated before the battle began, the casualties would have been severe.

"Be careful! This guy is no joke!"

"Don't underestimate him!"

"Yeah, this slash is even stronger than the last one."

Even the usually optimistic Killer B felt some pressure. He had never seen swordsmanship like this before.

Flying slashes were supposed to be unique to Konoha's swordsman, right?

Why could this person do it too?

And those eyes...

This man's eyes were similar to Hawk Eyes'. Those sharp eyes made them feel like Mihawk's prey.

Moreover, in the village, many of Killer B's techniques were restricted.

To effectively attack this man, he would at least need to use a Tailed Beast Bomb.

But the Tailed Beast Bomb's power was too great.

This was inside the village, and if it's not controlled properly, the village could be affected.

"No choice, I'll go full tailed beast mode."

The Eight-Tails' form gradually shrank, and Killer B returned to his original form.

After a brief moment, his body was covered in a black-red tailed beast chakra.

"Is Lord B worried about the village being affected?"

"Damn that intruder!"

Omoi gritted his teeth in frustration at Mihawk.

He wanted to help, but this level of battle was beyond him.

If he wasn't careful, he could become a burden to Killer B.

He needed to find the right moment to ambush that man and create an opportunity for Lord Killer B.

In his tailed beast mode, Killer B looked like an enraged beast.

His elbows had the white bones of the tailed beast transformation, and he assumed a charging stance, moving at an incredible speed.

It was almost impossible to see with the naked eye, but Mihawk had already predicted his movements with Observation Haki.

Even Mihawk felt a bit of pressure from the immense power.

Lariat!

No one had ever survived this move. The terrifying power could shatter all the bones in a person's body.

"Boom!"

With the impact, a terrible storm swept through the surroundings, and the buildings in front of them instantly collapsed.

Killer B climbed out of the rubble and looked at Mihawk with a serious expression.

He dodged?

Very few people had dodged this move. One of them was Konoha's 'Yellow Flash.'

"He dodged!"

"That guy's reflexes are that fast?"

Killer B had used all his techniques, confident in his taijutsu.

But against Mihawk, the most troublesome thing was the opponent's slashes.

In his tailed beast form, Killer B wasn't confident he could take on his slashes head-on.

Huh?

What is that?

In Killer B's eyes, a black substance covered the hand holding the sword, turning it into something resembling iron.

The black sword looked even more sinister.

"B, that guy seemed to predict your attack route earlier."

"He seems to have some kind of precognitive ability."

"What?!"

"Precognitive ability?!"

Even Killer B couldn't help but shout in surprise. This was a troublesome enemy.

It wouldn't be easy to protect the village from this guy.

He had a bad feeling from the start of the battle. This war felt strange to Killer B.

The battle continued, with invisible windstorms destroying everything around them.

The sheer power was terrifying, and the surrounding slashes cut everything in their path.

Omoi watched with a pale face, his legs trembling uncontrollably.

There's no chance.

That man didn't give him any chance to sneak attack!

Has the Intelligence Division contacted Lord Raikage yet?

If Raikage didn't return soon, the village would be in trouble.

The enemy in front of them wasn't something Killer B could handle alone.

.....

When Ryujiro and Hinata returned to Konoha, they reported the frontline situation in detail to everyone present.

They could clearly see everything happening on the battlefield from the mountain peak in Konoha.

The black monsters were beyond imagination, and Ryujiro's slashes were as terrifying as ever.

What shocked them even more was that the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, had actually lost an arm to Hinata, a member of the Hyuga clan known for their Byakugan.

Onoki was an experienced Kage-level shinobi, and his Dust Release was feared for its ability to disintegrate all matter.

Yet, Hinata still managed to take out Onoki's arm.

Hiashi didn't know what to say.

He felt proud of Hinata; she was his daughter and the pride of the Hyuga Clan.

"Ryujiro, those black monsters that appeared on the battlefield earlier, are they related to you?"

"What are they exactly, and why did they appear on the battlefield?

From what we saw earlier, those monsters seemed to lack any rationality."

Everyone's eyes focused on Ryujiro, especially now that his abilities seemed beyond what humans could achieve.

He had already prepared for this when he decided to hollow out the dead.

"Hollows, a type of mutated soul."

"Hollows?"

Everyone frowned. They had never heard of such a thing.

"Did you create those monsters?"

Tsunade asked in a deep voice.

The meeting room fell into a dead silence.

It was too quiet, and everyone could hear each other's breathing.

"Yes."

"But this is also a tactic I use against enemies. Since they're enemies, there's nothing to hesitate about or be merciful."

"Isn't that, right?"

Everyone exchanged glances.

Ryujiro was correct; this was war, and there was no room for mercy.

As veteran ninjas, they understood that mercy towards the enemy was cruelty towards themselves.

If Konoha couldn't withstand the Allied Shinobi Forces today, they would face invasion, and the villagers would suffer at the hands of those driven by desire.

"Ryujiro is right. The Allied Shinobi Forces from the four great villages are our enemies. Their goal is to destroy Konoha."

"Everyone here knows Ryujiro hasn't harmed the village's interests since we've known him."

Hiashi spoke up for Ryujiro.

Hiashi was right. Ryujiro was on their side.

Even if he used unconventional methods, he had single-handedly held off the Allied Shinobi Forces' vanguard.

Everyone looked at Hinata and Ryujiro.

These two were like a powerful army themselves.
