Chapter 106 » Expanding the Land of Water's Territory — Operation: Erase Kumogakure!
On the border between the Land of Water and the Land of Lightning, Yusuke had personally arrived.
This war had seen the deployment of three thousand cursed seal ninja on their side. On the other side, Kumogakure had secretly allied with Konoha and Suna villages, forming a combined force of ten thousand ninja, their forces interwined together.
War loomed on the horizon. A murderous atmosphere permeated the air.
At the quiet entrance of the valley plains, Yusuke stood silently atop a massive rock. Behind him were his loyal subordinates: Mangetsu Hozuki, Kisame Hoshigaki, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, as well as Suigetsu Hozuki, Jugo, Kimimaro, and Mei.
Everyone stood quietly behind him, awaiting his orders.
After a long silence, Yusuke's lips curled into a smirk.
"What do you say? How about incorporating the Land of Lightning into our Land of Water's territory?"
This casual statement made everyone's blood boil with excitement!
What does this statement mean? His intention is to make Kumogakure vanish!
"We offer our hearts to Lord Yusuke!" Mangetsu exclaims with extreme excitement.
"We offer our hearts to Lord Yusuke!" Kisame and the others immediately echo loudly.
"How is the assembly of our support ninja progressing?" Yusuke turns to Mangetsu.
"We've assembled ten thousand ninja heading towards the border line. We've also reserved ten thousand ninja on the border defense line with the Land of Fire. Moreover, fifty ninja from the Half-Kage Corps are leading them." He answers respectfully.
After a long period of recuperation, Kirigakure's ninjas have become increasingly united, and their numbers have grown exponentially.
Two years ago, the Mist Village could only muster between fifteen to twenty thousand ninja at most. Now, just the ninja deployed to battle lines against various major ninja villages number twenty-three to twenty-four thousand, not counting those still reserved in the village.
This growth is due to the series of reforms in Kiri over this long period, plus the influx of massive resources. Families of all sizes within the Land of Water's borders have flocked to the village, willingly becoming part of Kirigakure!
Yusuke's name is exceptionally renowned within the Land of Water. Additionally, joining Kiri grants access to countless vast resources.
One might ask, is there any reason not to join? Follow the strong Yusuke Kamizuki! Possess vast resources! With such a ninja village in our own Land of Water, what reason is there not to join?
It can be said that after such a long period of development, the Land of Water has now truly become united at its core! In fact, as early as half a year ago, the Water Daimyo had already declared unconditional support for all developments of the Mist Village!
After all, the stronger Kirigakure becomes, the more secure the Daimyo's position in the Land of Water! Although he possesses extremely high political rights, this authority has long since ceased to have any substantial impact within Kiri.
This is because the entire Mist Village, and even the entire Land of Water — ninja of all ranks — follow Yusuke's lead!
"Then let's set a small goal." Yusuke says after listening to Mangetsu's report. He gently raises his right hand, pointing directly at Kumo ninja across the battle line, "Before our ten thousand reinforcements arrive, let's completely take down the Hidden Cloud Village!"
His voice is filled with cold killing intent!
"Yes!" Behind him, Mangetsu and the others shout in unison!
Three thousand people battling against ten thousand ninja from Kumogakure — yet they show no fear at all!
On the contrary, everyone's eyes reveal an intense fighting spirit!
"The battle to annihilate Kumogakure begins!" Yusuke shouted loudly, leaping up, his figure soaring directly into the sky!
As the roar echoes through the sky, Kirigakure's three thousand Cursed Seal Troops charge forth like tigers released from their cages, rushing towards the Land of Lightning's border line ahead!
❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆
Within the Land of Lightning's border battle line.
"What? They have just over three thousand ninja, yet they're charging at us first?" Upon hearing this, the Fourth Raikage flies into a rage, "Kill them all! Notify all ninja! Fight to the death with Kirigakure!"
A is furious! He charges straight out of the tent!
This time, he will lead the charge!
The Uchiha clan members in the camp also conceal themselves within this powerful flood of ninja. Their purpose is simple — to attack and kill the Mist Village ninja.
"Kill!"

Kimimaro is equally decisive in his killing! The smell of blood gradually spreads.
The battle has raged for ten minutes. Valleys and plains are now littered with countless corpses. Even mountain rivers have turned from clear to crimson.
"Something's not right, Captain! There's something off about the Kiri ninjas! Even when cornered by a dozen of us, they suddenly burst out with strange power. We've already lost many of our ninja this way!"
"..."
"Ah! Captain! Retreat quickly! The Kiri ninjas are not human! Their skin has suddenly darkened... some even have horns growing on their heads... They're monsters! Ahhh!!!"
"..."
Suddenly, the battle's stalemate tips in Kirigakure's favor.
The three thousand cursed seal ninja, now provoked, activate their Cursed Seal of Heaven! In an instant, their fighting power increases dozens of times!
Three thousand battling against ten thousand — yet they hold their ground!
Moreover, they have already begun to faintly gain the upper hand!
"No wonder Yusuke Kamizuki is so confident! I'll kill him myself!" A is now extremely furious!
Behind him, the expressions of Darui and C have also become unusually grave. Evidently, they didn't expect these ninjas to have such a strange and unpredictable secret technique.
"No need to come find me."
A voice suddenly exploded next to the Fourth Raikage's ear! At this moment, only to see in the sky, a figure like a deity, quietly floating — Yusuke!
"Yusuke Kamizuki!!!" A, upon seeing him, immediately fell into a state of rage! The chakra throughout his body instantly began to surge wildly!
Lightning Release Chakra Mode!
In an instant, he entered his most powerful mode!
Boom——!!!
A thunderous sonic boom resounded!
Yusuke's figure suddenly appeared behind the Fourth Raikage! And his hands had already grabbed the heads of Darui and C... His speed was so fast, it even caught A off guard!
Five fingers so easily gripped the heads of the two men in front of him.
"I hope you've had a good life up until now. Unfortunately, you made the mistake of provoking my wrath." Yusuke's voice contained nothing but emptiness, any trace of emotion nonexistent.
It seemed like a superior voice, coming to declare a fact. And then he declared.
"Fall."
The moment this words were said, Darui and C instinctively sensed boundless terror. This fear struck directly at their souls.
Just as the two were about to counterattack, Yusuke's hands moved swiftly in opposite directions.
Split! Split!
With the brief sounds of tearing and separation...
Thud! Thud!
The two bodies collapsed to their knees, then fell forward. Where their heads should have been, only frozen necks remained, preventing any blood from spilling.
And their heads? Vanished in the chaos of battle.
"You... Yusuke Kamizuki! AHHH! I'LL KILL YOU!" A's eyes blazed with thunderous rage.
Seeing the lifeless bodies of Darui and C, he transformed into a being of pure fury.
[ Ding! The Fourth Raikage A has entered a state of uncontrollable rage! He desires nothing but your immediate death to avenge his subordinates! Congratulations, host has gained 500,000 Villain Points! ]
Yusuke observed the Fourth Raikage, now consumed by berserk fury.
He simply raised his hands, beckoning. His face remained emotionless.
"Come if you dare."
Upon arriving earlier, Yusuke had sensed the chakra reserves within the Raikage's body. They were at least tenfold greater than before, with the highest concentration in his right arm.
Now, he yearned to test his fist against A, who had increased his strength tenfold. Who would prove stronger?
"AAAAHHHH!!" The Fourth Raikage let out a furious roar! The power in his fist suddenly condensed.
The surging chakra gathered towards his fist, concentrating to a point before striking towards his mortal enemy!
At this moment, Yusuke also raised his fist, using only 30% of his total strength to test the waters.
Boom!! Boom!!!
Fist met fist! A terrifying gust of wind immediately spread out!
Yusuke remained standing in place. However, A's entire body was sent flying backwards, smashing heavily into a boulder. The boulder shattered on impact!
Yusuke took a deep breath, instantly losing interest. He had thought the Fourth Raikage would be much stronger. Was this all?
A angrily smashed the rocks around him, feeling his now slightly numb arm. Seeing the disappointed look in Yusuke's eyes, rage immediately surged in his heart.
"I'll kill you!!" He roared in fury!
He charged directly towards Yusuke like a mindless beast!
"Trash. Even after increasing your strength so much, you're still trash…" Yusuke said coldly.
Knowing there was no point in wasting time here, his eyes began to glow on his cold face. The redness grew more and more intense until they became two crimson beacons.
Scorch Release: Heat Vision!
The terrifying high-temperature heat vision instantly swept across A's charging legs!
In a split second, it easily melted through his legs! The Fourth Raikage fell to the ground in a strange posture, his face filled with paleness and terror!
[ Ding! Congratulations, host has gained 200,000 Villain Points! ]
