Chapter 185: The Death of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist

"Yeruashi... This is Jutsu: Concealment in the Mist!"

Rin warned Yeruashi as she stood to her right, bathed in Isobu's chakra, and could barely make out Yeruashi standing next to her.

Yeruashi calmly said, "I know."

He performed a series of seals with one hand, it happened almost instantly, with his fingers leaving afterimages.

"Wind Jutsu: Wind Dragon!"

Although Yeruashi spends very little time practicing ninjutsu, but in his spare time, he sometimes practices the five basic elements, and this was the most powerful wind attribute ninjutsu in his arsenal.

Rooooaaaarrr!!!!

A blast of fierce wind erupted, creating a sound vaguely resembling the roar of a dragon, surrounding Yeruashi's body and dispelling the nearby mist instantly.

But when the wind dragon disappeared, the mist spread again, quickly enveloping the cleared area. It was hard to tell how much chakra was poured into this thick fog and what area it covered.

Whoosh!

A sword light shone through the mist and pierced Rin's figure.

The strangely shaped sword wrapped in chakra pierced Sanbi's chakra cover, but at the last moment, Yeruashi placed his left hand on Rin's shoulder and pushed her aside, while his right hand swung the Kusanagi sword in the direction where the sword owner's body was supposed to be.

A silver slash cut through the mist, but the place was empty and there were no human shadows nearby.

"That's right... it seems that this is not just a simple Concealment Jutsu in the Mist, but also a wide-ranging material illusion, somehow distorting my perception."

Yeruashi surveyed the scene and spoke with a calm look.

Suikazan's voice came out of the mist, from an unknown direction.

"Not bad for the Silver Flash, you understood the situation quickly."

"Originally, it was prepared specifically for the Yellow Flash and used against you after a little redesign, even if you recognize it, it's useless because now you can't get out"

"Once under the influence of this technique, you won't be able to determine the direction of the attack, as well as our and even your location... so you should be careful, if you get separated from the Sanbi's Jinchuriki for a moment, you may never find her again, hahahahahahaha!"

It was impossible to determine the direction of the voice, it seemed to come from all directions at the same time. This made the atmosphere around her even more eerie, and a shiver ran down Rin's spine.

She gritted her teeth and took a step back, leaning her back against Yeruashi, and then nervously glanced around, thinking of countermeasures.

There was no way to determine the direction.

There was no way to determine the enemy's position.

In such conditions, it will be very difficult for Yeruashi to show his advantage in speed, on the contrary, in such a thick fog, it will only increase the probability of falling into an enemy trap.

In that case...

She will have to use the last resort: full Bijuu Mode to try to protect herself and Yeruashi.

But just as Rin was about to adopt the full Bijuu form, to her ears came Yeruashi's unusually calm voice: "Don't turn around, stay where you are."

"Huh?"

Rin was about to turn around when she slowed her movements.

Yeruashi wants to fight back to back? This will really help to avoid unexpected attacks from behind, but the danger can still come from the upper or lower direction.

As these thoughts went through Rin's head, she suddenly felt Yeruashi's body become softer, and as a girl she was very sensitive to this.

This is...

Doubt shone in Rin's eyes.

But immediately after, she felt Yeruashi's figure behind her disappear and rush straight into the mist.

"Yeruashi!!!"

This took her by surprise.

Suddenly losing her balance behind her, Rin immediately sensed the danger and threw a large amount of Isobu chakra in all directions in an attempt to find Yeruashi, but it was all in vain.

One second...

Two seconds...

Three seconds...

As time passed, she found it surprising that no one came near her.

The sounds of battle reached Rin's ears, some of them seemed to be very close, but she couldn't sense the specific location, and there were occasional screams as well.

The inability to see and understand what was going on made Rin feel very nervous. Just as she was about to enter full Bijuu Mode, the surrounding mist suddenly showed signs of dissipating.

"Genjutsu?"

"No... This isn't Genjutsu!"

The fog enveloping everything was gradually dissipating, it was happening faster and faster!

When the density of the fog decreased to the point where it was possible to see what was happening about ten meters away, Rin saw a human figure lying on the ground not far away.

Rin was first horrified and unconsciously was about to attack, but immediately noticed blood flowing on the ground and distinguished the person's appearance.

"Fuguki Suikazan!"

Rin exclaimed in shock.

These residual chakra fluctuations really belonged to Suikazan!

Rin could see that Suikazan's prone body was bleeding and his chakra had almost completely disappeared, the last signs of life were rapidly leaving his body and his fat face was contorted into a grimace of horror and disbelief.

It was as if he had experienced something extremely terrible before he died.

A sharp shiver ran down Rin's back.

When the fog dissipated, Rin saw another corpse lying a few dozen meters away.

The body was cut into many small pieces, but next to it, was the huge sword Kubikiribōchō was stuck in the ground nearby, looking closer, Rin could vaguely determine the identity of this corpse.

Juzo Biwa!

"Juzo Biwa is dead as well? This was done by Yeruashi? But how did he find them...and two at once..."

Rin felt a strong astonishment at the situation.

At this moment, even she couldn't determine the location of the enemy, and she knew that Yeruashi wasn't very good in terms of perception, but now, in this situation, two of the Seven Mist Swordsmen had already been killed.

In other words...

Yeruashi successfully trained the Sage Mode!

Rin could only think of such an explanation.

The fog continued to clear.

Rin heard sounds coming from far away and saw several more corpses, they were lying several tens of meters away and were cut into pieces.

Kushimaru Kuriarare!

Akebino Jinin!

...

The corpses of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist!

The fog continued to clear.

It had almost ceased to affect vision.

Suddenly, Rin heard the sound of thunder coming from far away, she looked in that direction, hesitating for a moment before taking a long leap and dashing in that direction anyway.

Soon.

After running about a hundred meters, he saw a human figure pinned to a rock by Yeruashi's Kusanagi Sword.

Arcs of lightning intertwined in the Kusanagi Sword, producing crackling sounds.

It would be a bit inappropriate to call it a human figure.

Because the other party's body turned into a puddle of water, but there was still a human face in the puddle of water, writhing in pain, but unable to get rid of the Kusanagi Sword that was imbued with lightning and constantly emitting crackling sounds.

This is the Hōzuki Clan's Hydration Technique, which allows you to turn your body into water, thus ignoring almost any attack, but this technique has a great weakness against Lightning attribute chakra.

"No, it's impossible..."

"How can you determine our location within this technique?"

Hōzuki Mangetsu opened his mouth with difficulty and said through the pain in disbelief.

Even a ninja with powerful perception would not be able to determine their location, even the Hyuga Clan's Byakugan will be significantly limited, falling under the influence of this material illusion of a wide range.

However.

Yeruashi was able to identify his exact location!

When Yeruashi discovered Suikazan, he thought it was just an accident and immediately tried to hide again, but it was useless!

It seemed that the training had no effect on Yeruashi.

Suikazan was killed in an instant!

And that was just the beginning of the nightmare.

In a matter of minutes.

Fuguki Suikazan, Juzo Biwa and the others were discovered one by one and killed by the Silver Flash, without even having a chance to launch a counterattack!
