Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
His gaze was icy, and the ice darts flew out instantly.
"Ah!"
"What!"
"Ugh..."
The three Sarutobi genin were caught off guard and were riddled with holes by more than a dozen ice darts.
After succeeding, he didn't linger and immediately attacked Sarutobi's chunin and genin with his sword.
At this time, the strongest on the battlefield were only jonin. As for elite jonin and patriarch-level powerhouses, none of them had made it to the battlefield.
At the jonin level, the Hagoromo clan could still hold their own for now, since jonin had a wide variety of ninjutsu and were experienced, so they could manage for the time being.
However, chunin were different from genin. The exhausted Hagoromo genin were at a significant disadvantage against the energetic Sarutobi ninja.
Although their fight didn't involve much ninjutsu, the mere physical combat was enough to inflict considerable losses on the Hagoromo genin.
Therefore, his goal in entering the battlefield was very clear: to kill as many chunin and genin as possible from the Sarutobi clan, thereby relieving the pressure on the lower-level combat power of the Hagoromo clan.
Pfft!
Whoosh!
Slash!
Facing the chunin and genin of the Sarutobi clan, he was like a god of death. With his cold eyes, he killed Sarutobi ninjas one by one with each slash. Soon, more than a dozen chunin and genin died under his blade.
"Ah—"
A Hagoromo chunin was surrounded and attacked by three people. He screamed and fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Kazuki snorted coldly. "Wind Release: Vacuum Blade!"
In an instant, a shuriken carrying wind-style chakra flew toward the three Sarutobi ninjas.
Previously, he was not yet proficient in this technique and could only cover a small portion of wind-attribute chakra on his shuriken.
However, after three days of training, his Wind Release: Vacuum Blade was now fully mastered.
The shuriken was covered with wind blades a meter in diameter, and it spun around and instantly arrived in front of the three Sarutobi.
Puff, puff, puff.
Thump, thump, thump.
"Ah—"
The wind blades flew past the three people's bodies, instantly severing them at the waist. Blood gushed out, and their upper bodies fell to the ground, emitting heart-wrenching screams.
He glanced at the three of them, then turned and left to continue his search for targets.
Slowly, his wanton killings attracted the attention of a Sarutobi jonin.
"Damn it! Where did this brat come from!"
A jonin, his face grim, headed straight for him.
"Fire Release: Flame Bullet!"
A scorching heat surged from behind, and he instantly turned around and formed hand seals. "Ice Release: Fierce Tiger Assault!"
A tiger made of ice leaped out from in front of him, and after shattering the fireball, it charged directly at the Sarutobi jonin with undiminished momentum.
"Huh?!" The Sarutobi jonin was instantly shocked by his ninjutsu.
"Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall!"
After realizing what was happening, the jonin quickly formed hand seals, creating an earthen wall in front of him.
Boom!
The ice tiger smashed through the earthen wall and then disappeared.
Two seconds later, the dust settled, and the Sarutobi jonin had disappeared behind the earthen wall.
"Huh? Where is he?" He was taken aback.
While he was searching for the whereabouts of the jonin—
"Earth Release: Double Suicide Decapitation Technique!"
Suddenly, a hand reached out from under his feet and grabbed his ankle.
Seeing that the situation was bad, he quickly formed hand seals and used ninjutsu to blast downward. "Wind Release: Whirlwind Fist!"
"Hmph!"
Faced with the threat of the Whirlwind Fist, the Sarutobi jonin had no choice but to release his ankle and jumped out from the ground with a cold snort.
That brat is really troublesome!
Cursing under his breath, the jonin gripped his sword and began to exchange taijutsu with him.
During the Warring States period, the confrontations between ninjas were mostly physical combat, and the sword, as a deadly weapon, was something that almost every ninja of the Warring States period could master.
Especially those powerful ninjas, whose swordsmanship was even more exquisite.
Ding ding ding ding...
The clash between them was dazzling.
However, he ultimately suffered from the disadvantage of age and gradually fell into a disadvantageous position in the physical combat.
However, sometimes ninjas still had to rely on ninjutsu to decide who wins.
With a single move, he forced the Sarutobi jonin to retreat and immediately formed hand seals.
"Ice Release: Frost Domain!"
Instantly, within a 100-meter diameter area centered on him, a layer of frost formed on the ground.
"Hm?"
The Sarutobi jonin cautiously observed him, wondering what kind of ninjutsu he had used. Could it simply be that he had caused a layer of frost to form on the ground?
Is this kid out of ideas?
"Hehe..."
He smiled as he looked at the Sarutobi jonin, holding a short sword in his right hand and forming a hand seal with his left hand to use Wind Release: Sword of the Wind God.
Buzz—
In an instant, sharp wind blades swirled along the blade.
He grinned.
Next, I'm going to start showing off!
He gripped his sword with both hands, his eyes narrowed as he looked at the jonin.
Ice Leap!
A flash of frost, and he vanished instantly.
Not good!
The Sarutobi jonin's mind went on high alert, and he instinctively wanted to find him.
Pfft!
Found it!
A look of surprise appeared on the jonin's face.
But why is this kid descending?
And where's the head of that guy down there?
The jonin was instantly filled with question marks.
With a single slash, Kazuki beheaded the Sarutobi jonin, then used the Body Flicker Technique to leave the spot, avoiding getting splattered with the fountain of blood.
Bang!
The head that had flown off landed on the ground, and the headless corpse, losing its support, collapsed.
So, that headless corpse was me...?
His head rolled twice on the ground before the Sarutobi jonin lost consciousness.
Having dealt with the jonin, he immediately used Ice Leap to take down the surrounding enemies.
After all, after consuming a quarter of his chakra to create the Frost Domain, using Ice Leap would consume very little chakra.
If that was the case, then why should he be stingy with using Ice Leap?
Every second that followed, as long as it was within the range of the Frost Domain, became his hunting ground.
Accompanied by shimmering frost colors, he appeared and disappeared repeatedly.
With each flash, at least one Sarutobi ninja died by his blade.
"Young Clan Leader?"
"Young Clan Leader..."
"Young Clan Leader!"
As he rescued more and more of his clansmen, the surrounding Hagoromo clansmen gradually cheered, and shouts of "Young Clan Leader!" rose and fell.
Soon, all the clansmen within the Frost Domain were without any opponents.
After glancing around, he left the Frost Domain and began dealing with the other Sarutobi ninjas.
As for that icy region, he ignored it.
Once the Frost Domain was cast, it could last for one hour, after which it would naturally disappear.
He was keeping that Frost Domain—it might come in handy later.
"Young Clan Leader, you are mighty!"
"Kill them!"
Seeing him display such prowess on the battlefield, the morale of the surrounding clansmen was also boosted.
The Hagoromo clan members, armed and excited, rushed out of the icy realm and charged directly at their other enemies.
His high-profile behavior also attracted the attention of several Sarutobi jonin.
"Kid! That's enough for you!"
"Earth Release: Earth Flow River!"
"Fire Release: Great Flame Bullet!"
Facing the combined attack of three jonin, he remained completely calm.
