Konoha's task master

The thick fog was shattered by the heavy flow of the explosion, and the three cloud ninjas temporarily got a chance to breathe. The three shadow clones of Yakumo stood in different positions, staring down at the enemy.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

The four stars fired continuously, like a barrage of cannons, suppressing the reaction space of the three Kumo ninjas. Yakumo held the sword and calmly consumed the enemy's physical strength.

Ding, the collision between the sharp blade and the glove made Yakumo even more convinced of the enemy's weakness. Taking this opportunity, his speed surged and he continued to advance forward. The short blade was swung to form a purple knife network that seemed to cut off everything.

The leading Kumo ninja could only retreat in embarrassment. At this moment, the other Kumo ninja waved his iron fist and tried his best to block Yakumo's attack.

"break!"

Yakumo drank softly, and the speed increased again... The white light flashed away carrying the purple flame.

The cloud ninja stumbled back, and a wound spread from his right shoulder to his left waist. The wound tore his clothes, skin, muscles... and even bones. This was a fatal injury.

Under the angry looks of the other two Kumo ninjas, Yakumo swung his sword again and cut off the artery in his neck.

Blood sprayed out, staining the surrounding ground red.

Yakumo slowly adjusted his breathing. There was neither sadness nor joy on his face. He did not look at the fallen body anymore. Yakumo was deeply moved by his choice to desperately save his companions, but it did not mean that there would be any hesitation in using his sword.

When he decided to swing his sword to kill, he clearly understood that there was no room for hesitation when facing the enemy, no matter whether the opponent was a man, a woman or even a child.

"retreat!"

The leading Kumo ninja suddenly gave the order to retreat, even if he would be scolded if he went back, even if he wanted to cut Yakumo into pieces with a thousand swords.

But he had to order a retreat. He couldn't let his brothers die here. However, Yakumo had no intention of letting the enemy go. The thick fog spread and shrouded him again, and the purple sword light was like the scythe of death coming.

The leading Kumo ninja was once again entangled by Yakumo, while the other Kumo ninja was restrained by Reiko Aoyama, and together with the three shadow clones shooting hidden arrows in the distance, all possibilities for their escape were completely closed.

Ding! Sparks burst out, and the strong wind from the collision of weapons turned into air waves that radiated in all directions.

The ground beneath their feet had cracks like spider webs, like two prehistoric beasts wrestling with each other.

The leader of the cloud ninja roared angrily, and blood oozed from his thick, dark arms, which showed that the capillaries in his arms had begun to break.

But he still couldn't change the fate of being gradually forced to retreat. If he continues like this, he will definitely be defeated.

"Heavy flow storm!"

The iron fist that stirred up thunder chakra struck down, Yakumo immediately raised his short blade to block, and easily retreated to relieve the force. At the same time, the shadow clone threw out a four-star chain ball, forcing the leader of the cloud ninja to raise his hand to defend.

While defending, the leader of the cloud ninja threw out several kunai. It was this move that gave him a chance to breathe.

Yakumo's feet exerted force to hit the kunai's flight path, and the purple fire in his hand slashed four times in a row in a very short period of time. With the sound of gold and iron, the kunai was directly chopped away.

He stepped forward continuously, approaching the enemy further, and at the same time, Yakumo continued to slash at the chest of the leader of the Kumo ninja with his sword!

Almost instantly, the leader of the Kumo ninja swung his iron fist and hit Yakumo's head. This was a life-threatening attack.

Yakumo easily dodged the heavy punch, and controlled the short blade with his right hand to change the direction of the attack. After the extremely sharp sword flash, he directly cut off the fist glove made of fine iron, and at the same time, the right hand bone of the leader of the Kumo ninja was cut off.

Under the severe pain, the leader of the Kumo ninja was about to retreat when Yakumo's black hair suddenly swelled up like a spider opening a large black web when hunting, and quickly got close and entangled his legs.

In battle, the blink of an eye can mean the difference between life and death!

Yakumo took two steps forward, and his other hand suddenly pressed on the chest of the leader of the Kumo ninja. The four water balls wrapped around his wrist crashed into the enemy's chest and shot him in the face!

Four consecutive hits made him temporarily lose the ability to resist. Yakumo easily beheaded the leader of the Kumo ninja with a sword in the eyes of the other party's unwillingness.

The last Kumo ninja was quickly eliminated with the cooperation of Yakumo and Reiko Aoyama.

Yakumo waved his hand, and the thick fog slowly dissipated.

With the deduction of one hundred gold coins, the abyss-like aura in his body gradually shrank, and he became an ordinary first-year student in the ninja school again.

He grabbed the three corpses and stacked them together. After tearing off the ninja kit, he poured in the corpse-dissolving water. After a burst of foul-smelling smoke, the last traces of the existence of the Cloud Ninja trio were completely erased.

Yakumo couldn't help but lamented that if everyone could eradicate the weeds like him and leave no future troubles, how could there be an army of filthy reincarnations later to overwhelm the ninja world?

If you become my enemy, you will have your ashes scattered.

Yakumo raised his head and found Reiko Aoyama staring at him with a strange look on her face, even forgetting to deal with the wounds on her body.

"How do you become so skilled?"

"Isn't this common sense?" Yakumo asked, standing up and taking out the trace disappearing powder and starting to deal with the traces. The more you use this thing, the more you will naturally become proficient.

"After the battle, you must...erase all traces and leave no consequences, so that you can live safer in this world." Yakumo said to Reiko Aoyama without raising his head, and by the way, he killed Kunai and the trio.

The weapon is sealed in a storage scroll.

It's a pity...Yakumo doesn't know their names yet...

The two got back on the road. Due to Reiko Aoyama's injury, their progress was much slower, but they still arrived at Sekihuo City before dark and avoided spending the night in the wilderness.

At night, Yakumo picked up the ninja tool bag of the leader of the Kumo ninja and began to look at it. First of all, there were silver coins from the Fire Country and the Thunder Country on the outermost layer. They were all relatively large bills, which was a good extra income.

He also discovered the ninja certificates of the three Kumo ninjas. The leader of the Kumo ninja was named Mizukawa Katsu, and the other two were named Todo Ryosuke and Takagi Yosuke.

The inner layer of the ninja bag contains kunai, shurikens, and detonating charms. This layer is designed to be very easy to pull out and is specially used to store weapons.

Further inside, the dark layer often stores the most beloved things of ninjas. For example, the intimate paradise that Kakashi loved as an adult is placed on this layer.

Yakumo opened the dark layer, and there was only a photo inside. It was a photo of Mizukawa Masaru holding a very cute girl, with a smile on his face full of traces of happiness.

This is the VIP location of the Ninja Tool Bag, but what it stores is not a secret volume, a treasure, or important information, just a photo...

"Hey." Yakumo sighed and took out the valuable items from the remaining two ninja bags. As for the others, he threw them in the brazier and burned them...including the yellowed photo.

The flames gradually engulfed the photo until it disappeared completely. Yakumo felt a little heavy. The photo seemed to remind him constantly... He destroyed a happy family with his own hands today.

"But I never regret it..."

Due to Reiko Aoyama's injury, the two decided to rest in Sekihuo Castle for a while after thinking about it.
