Chapter 72

Feng's speed in escaping was extremely fast.

At this moment, the two teams from Hidden Sand have already chased Feng for several miles.

Except for the leading woman, the others were already far behind them.

"This kid..."

The woman frowned.

Feng's speed was not something that an ordinary ninja like a Genin or a Chunin should possess. Although she still doesn't know which village Feng came from, his strength should still be at least on the rank of Jonin just based solely on his speed!

This kind of situation is extremely troublesome especially since they have no idea of the whereabouts of this ninja in front of them. Even if this ninja they're chasing is not from Hidden Leaf, it would still be detrimental to their plans if he relayed his message to his village and the information about their army was leaked!

"Yuji, Shika… follow me! The rest of you, go back to the main army!"

The woman said as she gave an order in a deep voice.

With Feng's speed, it would be useless to wait for the others to catch up to him, and with such a large group, their movements might be exposed.

So the best option for them is to leave the rest while they, the Jonin class ninjas continue to chase after Feng, in this way, they could also reduce the probability of them being exposed.

"Yes!"

The ninjas behind responded.

While the strongest of the bunch continued to chase after Feng.

Woosh! Woosh!

As they continued their pursuit, the distance between Feng and them gradually lessened, after a while, a cold glint flashed in the eyes of one of them.

"This place should be good enough!"

"Earth Release! Mud Wave!"

With a low growl, he quickly formed hand seals and pressed it to the ground.

Using Earth Release jutsus in a place like the Land of Rain would greatly reduce the efficiency of the technique, but some special ninjutsus are an exception, such as Mud Wave, not only would their environment not hinder the technique, it would even increase its power and range!

After he casted the jutsu, the entire terrain suddenly surged like a carpet which made it difficult for Feng to remain in balance that drastically decreased his speed.

"Die!"

Taking this opportunity, one of the Jonin's chasing took out his kunai and directly slashed Feng from behind.

Swoosh!

Feng, who was slowed down, seemed to be unable to avoid this attack, was struck from his left shoulder down to his right abdomen, and his entire body was split in half.

However, his body didn't show any trace of blood, instead, the 'Feng' that was slashed in two snickered then turned into a puff of smoke.

Shadow Clone!

"On your right!"

Someone said from behind.

Hearing his teammates' warning, the ninja swung his kunai without hesitation to block the incoming attack.

Clang!

Sounds of metal grating sounded out as the ninja's kunai and Feng's Sword of Kusanagi collided in mid air.

"I'm used to using a short sword so I still need to get used to wielding the Sword of Kusanagi, and it seems that this Kusanagi Sword does not have the capability to lengthen and shorten..."

After Feng briefly glanced at his sword, he made a seal with his other hand and casted Chidori and placed it on the sword.

Woosh! Woosh Woosh!

At this instant, another two ninjas surrounded Feng. Now they're flanking him from three different directions. They planned on not using any ninjutsus and would rely on numbers and their Taijutsu in order to avoid getting detected by nearby ninjas or people in the closest vicinity.

"Let's kill him as quickly as possible!"

Their eyes emitted killing intent.

Being surrounded by Jonins in three different directions, it would be troublesome even for Feng to dodge their combined attacks, his only path is to carve his way out.

In the depths of Feng's eyes an illusory clock appeared, then suddenly something 'strange' happened as he moved across the three people surrounding him!

Enveloped in silver light along with sparks of lightning arcs, Feng emitted a strong and violent chakra fluctuation making his enemies' expressions to change drastically.

"This Chakra...who are you?!"

The woman stared at Feng, with a vigilant expression in her eyes.

Such strong chakra fluctuations were even stronger than hers, this kid is not just an ordinary Jonin! He's definitely not a nameless person, but she really has no idea who Feng was, because Feng was really too young!

"Hidden Leaf."

Feng replied casually, and as his voice echoed, his figure turned into a silver light as he disappeared in an instant, rushing towards the one who attacked him beforehand.

The trio's face changed drastically. They never expected that Feng would be even faster than before!

"... Shit!"

With Feng's speed in this distance, even the woman who's the strongest of them wouldn't be capable of using Shadow Clone, so the only thing that ninja could do is to inject chakra on his Kunai and directly greet Feng's attack.

And as a Jonin, his reaction speed is also extremely fast.

However,

Under Feng's gaze while in the quadruple speed state, the ninja's actions were like slow motion in a movie, as he can see the trajectory of his block clearly.

Feng's time acceleration ability not only speeds his body, but his whole entire person, including his perception, awareness, sensation and other things, in other words, everything would be slow around him, if he uses the quadruple speed state, then the surroundings would also be slowed down four times!

What kind of concept is that?!

Even between Jonin class ninjas, that kind of gap in speed can decide someone's life and death.

So facing Feng head on with that kind of disadvantage would practically be suicide. They could only rely on either Substitution or Shadow Clone Jutsu to survive!

"Heh!"

A cold snicker sounded out as silver light flashed by.

The look of the Jonins face was full of horror and disbelief as he did not expect such a situation to happen.

"Yuji!!"

His nearby teammates screamed in terror.

He was an Upper Jonin from Hidden Sand Village, but even with his strength, he wasn't capable of withstanding a single slash from the kid in front of them!

They only saw Feng turn into a silver light as he passed by Yuji's body, turning him stiff and the next second splitting his body in half!

"Bastard!"

"This guy concealed his strength...!"

Looking at this scene, the woman's pupils shrank as her expression turned ugly.

That kind of speed, if he wanted to escape from the beginning, none of them would be even able to catch him. So the reason they caught up to him was he deliberately slowed down to catch them off guard!

Without further hesitation, the woman finally made her move, it was a combination of Wind and Fire Release giving birth to one of the rarest Kekkei Genkai!

"Scorch Release! Extremely Steaming Murder!"

Seeing this scene, Feng who was still enveloped in silvery light tilted his head slightly and said, "So it turns out that you're the famous Pakura of the Scorch Release".
