"Don't be afraid, I'm here."
"Don't come any closer, do you hear me?"
Yamamoto Takeshi, holding a weapon, stood in front of the girls and shouted.
Although he was a boy, he was still a bit scared facing this unknown monster, and his legs were trembling slightly.
Uchiha Matsuzaki had already arrived in their vicinity at this moment and witnessed this scene.
"Yamamoto, protect them! I'll deal with this monster!"
Uchiha Matsuzaki shouted at Yamamoto Takeshi and the others.
When the four of them heard Uchiha Matsuzaki's voice, their fear vanished, as the strongest person in their team had returned.
Uchiha Matsuzaki, gripping his sword with both hands, slowly approached the monster.
It was only then that he clearly saw what the monster looked like, and he couldn't help but shiver, as its appearance was truly terrifying.
"How disgusting. Looking at the color of your body, that black liquid earlier must have been yours."
Uchiha Matsuzaki said to the monster.
"Cackle, cackle, cackle."
The monster, with its extremely ferocious face, kept making cackling sounds where it stood.
It was as if it was taunting them.
At this moment, the monster suddenly accelerated and ran towards Uchiha Matsuzaki at an incredibly fast speed.
"So fast!"
When Uchiha Matsuzaki saw that the situation was not right, he instantly activated his Three Tomoe Sharingan.
But what he never expected was that even with his Sharingan activated, the monster's speed only slowed by half.
"Thud!"
At this moment, the monster delivered a heavy punch in front of Uchiha Matsuzaki, but due to his timely block, the fist landed on his sword.
Even so, Uchiha Matsuzaki was sent flying back several meters.
"Damn it, this guy's strength is probably on par with a Kage-level ninja."
Uchiha Matsuzaki said softly, looking at the monster after steadying himself.
The other four did not dare to act rashly at this time, as their strength was still too weak, and if they intervened, they would only be a hindrance.
This time, Uchiha Matsuzaki did not wait for the monster to attack; he took the initiative.
He rushed towards the monster at his fastest speed, and the moment he made contact, the sword in his hand cut off one of the monster's arms.
"That's great!"
The four of them said with great joy after seeing Uchiha Matsuzaki cut off one of the monster's arms.
Uchiha Matsuzaki also smiled at this moment, but the scene he saw next completely broke him!
The monster stood still, and its severed arm slowly melted into a viscous black liquid.
And a new arm grew back in the place where the body had been severed.
"Is this regeneration, for f*ck's sake?"
Uchiha Matsuzaki frowned, looked at the perfectly intact monster, and cursed.
The other four were also completely bewildered after seeing this situation; they had never encountered anything like it.
After its arm had regenerated, the monster slowly turned its body and looked at Uchiha Matsuzaki, a sudden smile appearing at the corner of its mouth.
Seeing this, Uchiha Matsuzaki couldn't help but shiver.
"Even if you can regenerate, if I cut off your head, let's see if the situation will be the same as now."
Uchiha Matsuzaki once again picked up his sword, stared at the monster, and prepared to launch another attack.
This time, he intended to cut off the monster's head.
