"It's started! It's started! Is this the power of a ninja? It's just... it's just like a natural disaster."
From a distance, Tomonori Aomizu was holding a telescope.
He had an anxious yet excited look on his face. The excitement was because the Kirigakure ninjas had made their move. To be honest, this was the first time he had seen such powerful Kirigakure ninjas in action.
They were four chunin, plus one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen!
The one called Kurosuki Raiga was even a jonin from the Kirigakure Village!
Although everything in front of him was shrouded in thick fog, he could still vaguely see the flickering lightning in the fog.
His anxiety, however, was because he didn't know if he would still get a share of the money after they killed Whitebeard.
Looking at those Kirigakure ninjas...
It seemed like they didn't want to share the money with him.
Ah, this...
"No way! They can't break the promise! We agreed on a 30-70 split!!" Tomonori Aomizu gritted his teeth, "If they break the promise, I'll go directly to their Mizukage in the Kirigakure Village!"
....
Meanwhile,
within the dense fog created by the Kirigakure no Jutsu
From the front, back, left, and right, these four streams of lightning-charged water had already forcefully crashed into the reception hall,
causing the entire building to collapse in an instant.
All four walls were ground into ruins!
"Is it over?" One of the Kirigakure chunin squinted his eyes, trying to see through the dense fog towards the ruins in front.
But the blurry figure he saw made him gasp.
"What is that?!"
He saw a hemispherical object in the ruins. The object was made of solid earth, with several dog heads carved on one side and nothing on the other.
Under the bombardment of four Great Waterfall Techniques and one Lightning Release Jutsu, the earth-made hemisphere was covered with cracks.
But it wasn't completely broken.
It had blocked it!
"Earth Release Jutsu?" The Kirigakure chunin, whose chakra was overused and causing his meridians to ache, immediately reacted.
"Weren't they poisoned? How could they have the strength to release a jutsu?"
"They weren't poisoned?" Another Kirigakure chunin looked upset, "Did that bounty target, Whitebeard, see through our plan?"
"Damn it! It must be that merchant who gave us away!"
He very smoothly shifted the blame onto Tomonori Aomizu
Because for these Kirigakure ninjas,
a failed assassination is unforgivable.
"...As expected, it's not simple." Kurosuki's reaction was much calmer than his four subordinates. He frowned deeply, his hands tightly gripping his ninja sword.
"Once the bow is drawn, there's no turning back. Even if there are unexpected events in the middle of the assassination, we must carry it out!"
He said coldly.
.....
Inside the hemisphere in the ruins.
Kakashi had one hand pressed against one side of the inner wall of the hemisphere, while Uzumaki Fuushi had her hand pressed against the other side.
This was an Earth Release Jutsu that they had used together.
There were almost no cracks on Kakashi's side.
On the Uzumaki Fuushi's side, cracks were everywhere, and some water even seeped in. Her complexion also turned a bit pale.
Although she possesses the bloodline of the Uzumaki clan, her body is relatively weak and has not recovered to its peak state.
The difference between the two sides was clear at a glance.
"Indeed, you are the Kirigakure Blood Ninja of the Kirigakure Village." Kakashi exhaled, his voice grave, "If our reaction was just two seconds slower, we might have died here."
"Moreover, I accidentally inhaled some poisons in the fog." There was a look of helplessness in Kakashi's dead fish eyes.
"The speed of releasing ninjutsu has slowed down a lot."
He looked at Uchiha Shisui.
Then he looked at Naruto.
Among their group, there were now two "injured persons". Under normal circumstances, this would definitely be in a life-threatening crisis.
But, Kakashi couldn't help but look at Whitebeard.
He found that Whitebeard's breathing rate had always been very stable.
He didn't deliberately hold his breath.
He inhaled a lot of poisons
Of course, Kakashi knew very well that Whitebeard didn't need chakra, so even if he inhaled these toxins that could affect the operation of chakra, it wouldn't have any effect on Whitebeard.
Sure enough.
Kakashi saw that Whitebeard's complexion was very normal.
Not weak at all.
"There are really a lot of little devils in the ninja world who want my head, to exchange for that 100 Million Ryo bounty!" Whitebeard had long known that his bounty had been raised to 100 Million.
In his mind, 100 Million bounty is a small sum of money
After all, he was once offered a bounty of more than 5 billion on the sea.
Compared to that, the people in the ninja world are too stingy.
"Stupid daughter, stand back." Whitebeard said to Uzumaki Fuushi.
"Okay, Pops!" Uzumaki Fuushi immediately retreated.
Whitebeard looked at the mud wall full of cracks.
There was still a smile on his face.
"Gurararararara! Let's see if these little ninjas from the Land of Water have the ability to take my head!" Whitebeard held the Murakumogiri and casually swung out a knife.
Whoosh!!
He didn't use the Conqueror's Haki, nor did he use the Armament Haki.
Just a plain and simple slash, it split the defensive ninjutsu released by Kakashi and Uzumaki Seal in half!
The wind stirred up by the knife roared in all directions.
It stirred up a lot of flying sand and rocks.
The dense fog was scattered by the strong wind.
The four Kirigakure Chunin closest to the ruins were shocked to find that a lot of building ruins were flying towards them, and they hurriedly dodged.
When the strong wind finally dissipated.
They saw that there were no building ruins around Whitebeard, all the ruins had been rolled and flown to an unknown distance.
Only a group of people were still standing here.
Uchiha Shisui's pupils shrank: "Is this the power that defeated the Third Hokage and Danzo?"
Very strong... This is Whitebeard's first impression to Shisui.
Shisui began to doubt whether his single-eyed Susano'o, if he also swung a casual knife, could cause the same movement as Whitebeard?
He thought about it.
It feels like it can't!
"Why is the wind so strong? Is it a wind escape ninjutsu used by Whitebeard? Is he a ninja who is good at using wind escape?" A group of Kirigakure Chunin looked terrified. Their Kirigakure no Jutsu was originally used to obscure the enemy's line of sight.
As a result, in this moment, all the dense fog was blown away, and their figures became particularly conspicuous.
Seeing that the situation was not right, they immediately jumped to the side of Kurosuki Raiga, and the five people stood together.
Facing Whitebeard.
"Killing has turned into a frontal battle!" Kurosuki Raiga's face was serious, but the killing intent in his eyes did not diminish.
At this moment, he suddenly noticed a ninja next to Whitebeard, a ninja with a Konohagakure headband.
"Hatake Kakashi?!" Kurosuki was taken aback. Hatake Kakashi's characteristics were well-known throughout the vast world of ninjas, and anyone could recognize him at a glance.
Damn it!
Kurosuki Raiga's serious face suddenly froze. Who could have thought that the Konohagakure ninja accompanying Whitebeard would be this person?
"Kurosuki-sama it seems like Hatake Kakashi from Konohagakure has been affected by the poison!" A Kirigakure chūnin next to him reminded, "I can feel that the flow of chakra in his body has become extremely unstable."
"Oh?" Kurosuki Raiga's mouth curled up, "It seems that it's not a miscalculation, but a meal given to us by heaven.
"Whitebeard, Edward Newgate, bounty of 100 million ryo!"
"Hatake Kakashi, bounty of 30 million Ryo!"
If they could get their hands on 130 million ryo...
Just thinking about it...
"Huh?" At this point, Kurosuki Raiga suddenly noticed a young man wrapped in bandages, with one eye open and one eye closed. He looked familiar.
"Uchiha Shisui!"
"Shisui of the Body Flicker"
A shocked exclamation involuntarily came out from Kurosuki. This was a person whose fame was no less than Kakashi's. He was also a famous Konohagakure ninja.
What on earth was going on? Why would two Konohagakure ninjas be mixed up with a wanted criminal?
"The genius Uchiha with a bounty of 45 million ryo!"
Kurosuki Raiga suppressed his shock because he had keenly noticed that Uchiha Shisui was the weakest among the group of people in front.
He licked the ninja sword in his hand.
And became even more excited.
"175 million ryo... All the missions I've done in my life are not worth this much money! Especially Shisui of the Body Flicker, Kakashi of the Sharingan. If I kill these two, I might even get a few Sharingan, right?"
If these two were at their peak, two famous Konohagakure ninjas, plus a Whitebeard, Kurosuki Raiga would definitely run away, not choose to fight.
But now Hatake Kakashi was in a semi-crippled state.
Uchiha Shisui was in a completely crippled state.
The only trouble was the Whitebeard, whose strength was unknown.
"Quick Fight!!" Kurosuki Raiga didn't want to prolong the fight. The longer the time dragged on, the faster Kakashi might recover, and then the enemy he would have to face would not just be a Whitebeard.
But if he only had to face a Whitebeard...
He felt that there was still a chance.
"Yes, Kurosuki-Sama!"
The four Kirigakure chunin spoke in unison, and at the same time formed seals: "Water Release: Quadruple Kirigakure no Jutsu!!!"
The four Kirigakure chunin squeezed out their remaining chakra, and the "Kirigakure no Jutsu" was released again.
The dense fog in the air was even thicker than before.
The visibility was so low that it was only a pitiful ten or so centimeters. Everyone in the fog was like a blind man.
They couldn't see anything at all.
But as Kirigakure ninjas, they had undergone strict assassination training. Even if they were also deprived of their sight, they had long been accustomed to training in the fog.
Even if they couldn't see anything with their eyes, they could still fight!
"What a troublesome ninja..."
Whitebeard blew a breath, dispersing a large area of fog in front of him, but the rest of the fog quickly filled in again.
"It's useless!" The voices of the Kirigakure ninjas seemed to come from all directions: "This is a special type of Kirigakure no Jutsu. If this kind of Kirigakure no Jutsu could be easily broken, we wouldn't be known as the famous Kirigakure Blood ninjas in the ninja world!"
Whoosh——
Sharp breaking sounds came from all directions, and a number of shuriken tore through the dense fog, heading straight for Whitebeard.
Whitebeard gently lifted Murakumogiri.
And slammed it down heavily.
Bang!!!
The ground under his feet shattered, and the waves of air lifted up sent all the incoming shuriken flying.
"Be careful! There might be explosives on the shuriken!"
Shisui quickly warned.
A large number of shuriken hadn't been shaken far away when they suddenly exploded in a series, and the shattered shuriken splashed out a large amount of fragments, heading straight for Whitebeard.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!!
Shisui found that his warning was superfluous because Whitebeard was not injured. The steel fragments that were enough to take a person's life fell on Whitebeard without leaving any scars.
"You've been tricked! Big guy!"
Suddenly, the voices of the Kirigakure Chunin rang out, and they appeared in front of, behind, to the left, and to the right of Whitebeard.
"Using other sounds to cover up one's own voice is also one of Kirigakure's silent killing techniques!"
Their faces were as pale as paper.
Even if the chakra in their bodies was about to be drained, they still forcibly extracted the chakra from their cells.
"Water Release: Water Prison no Jutsu!"
And once again in unison.
Four surging streams of water rushed towards Whitebeard and his group. These four streams of water were certainly not as powerful as the previous Great Waterfall no Jutsu, but the flow of water was even heavier than the Great Waterfall no Jutsu
In the blink of an eye, Whitebeard and the others were all wrapped in it, forming a huge water ball.
"Oof! Old gurgle gurgle!" The weak Naruto covered his mouth and nose, wanting to say something, but accidentally drank a big mouthful of water.
Uchiha Shisui immediately held his breath.
Karin and Uzumaki Fuushi were also caught off guard. Karin was directly choked by a mouthful of water, but there was no way to breathe in the Water Prison no Jutsu, and her little face was suffocated to a red color.
Kakashi's expression also changed.
"Hahaha! Well done!" Kurosuki Raiga's voice rang out in the dense fog: "This is the Water Prison Technique of the Kirigakure Village, an inescapable watery cage!"
Kurosuki Raiga's chakra surged, and the ninja sword in his hand was generous with thunder: "It is also made of 'water'. Water, it can conduct electricity!"
"Lightning Release... huh?!!"
Kurosuki Raiga hadn't had time to act.
He found that something was wrong.
He could keenly feel that the air seemed to be vibrating, and the dense fog in front of him was visibly shaking crazily. This made his pupils shrink, touching his knowledge blind spot: "What... is this?"
"aaaaaaah!!!" The screams of the four Kirigakure Chunin were so in sync.
The sudden intense vibration force instantly shattered all the bones in their bodies.
Their bodies slumped down like mud.
The four people died instantly.
The Water Prison no Jutsu that wrapped Whitebeard and others in it shattered.
A large amount of water splashed in all directions.
A lot of water also fell on Kurosuki Raiga.
He was drenched like a drowned rat.
The dense fog around was shaken away, presenting all the pictures, the scene was extremely clear.
"What... what is this?"
Kurosuki Raiga stared at his four subordinates who had died.
He didn't even know how the four of them were killed.
What kind of weird jutsu is this?
"Ninja brat, do you want to kill my family too?" The calm questioning was like a death god claiming a life.
Kurosuki Raiga looked up at Whitebeard's face.
But he found that he couldn't see clearly.
Whitebeard's face seemed to be shrouded in a shadow, which added a bit of oppression to Whitebeard.
"Actually... it can make me feel pressure."
Kurosuki Raiga's forehead was sweating coldly.
"He's a terrifying man." But he soon smiled: "But that's what makes it even more exciting! Whitebeard! After I kill you, I will hold a funeral for a man like you every month!"
Kurosuki Raiga raised his arm high, and the layers of dark clouds in the sky seemed to flash with thunder.
Boom!!
An astonishing thunderbolt fell from the sky.
Landing on the ninja sword.
"I am one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of Kirigakure!" Kurosuki Raiga, bathed in the dazzling lightning, introduced himself: "Whitebeard! Today... the one who will kill you is called 'Kurosuki'!"
"Lightning Release, Feast of Lightning!"
He didn't even need to form hand seals, just a wave of his two ninja swords towards Whitebeard, and the lightning spread forward like branches. Wherever it passed, even the ground was shattered by the lightning.
The crackling sound of electricity accompanied by the dazzling light.
Made Whitebeard squint slightly.
"Hey, hey, hey, it's really dazzling! It reminds me of an annoying little flash." Whitebeard held Murakumogiri in one hand and slashed forward.
The blade wrapped in Armament Haki touched the lightning.
And shattered the dazzling thunderbolt!
"Don't underestimate my ninja sword! Lightning Release, Tornado of the Thunder Dragon!" Kurosuki Raiga roared, and the lightning that had been shattered into arcs gathered into a huge thunder dragon.
The thunder dragon, like a tornado, rushed towards Whitebeard.
A large amount of electric arcs overflowed.
The momentum was terrifying!
"Don't think you can escape! Lightning Blade Technique, Falling Thunder!!" Kurosuki Raiga's actions did not stop, he fiercely plunged his palm double blade into the ground, and when he pulled it up, he swung it forward with all his might.
Two beams of lightning spread towards Whitebeard in an arc, and in the blink of an eye, they included Whitebeard and others.
"You can't avoid it!!!"
Watching the incoming thunder dragon.
Whitebeard's face showed not the slightest worry, but instead a smile. He said in Haki, "Quite an interesting blade! From today on, this blade belongs to the Whitebeard Pirates."
His right fist was wrapped in vibrating light waves.
The casual punch that Whitebeard smashed out of thin air caused a huge upheaval in the area ahead!
The incoming thunder dragon was instantly shattered!
The power of vibration.
Sweeping across the wilderness!
The air was filled with dense cracks. Under Kurosuki Raiga's incredulous gaze, they had already spread to his side. The intense vibration caused his muscles to burst inch by inch, and the Kirigakure forehead protector he was wearing was also shattered.
He vomited a large amount of blood from his mouth, along with a lot of organ fragments. Even his fragile eyes were exploded by the vibration force.
Ears, nose, eyes, mouth, all were gushing blood.
His limbs were twisted in different shapes.
The bones pierced through the flesh and were exposed.
The dignified one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of Kirigakure Village seemed particularly powerless at this time. All his flashy attacks could be resolved by Whitebeard.
On the contrary, it was Whitebeard's punch.
He couldn't take it.
The strangely shaped sword fell to the ground, and Kurosuki Raiga lay down in a disgraceful face-to-ground posture.
Blood dyed the ground around him a bright red.
No breath left!
"He is Kurosuki Raiga, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of Kirigakure Village, right?"
Shisui stared blankly at the corpse.
"He's just dead like that?
