Chapter 179: Steam Danger Explosion Might
“Thousand Years of Death!”
The ninja sword pierced the Mist Ninja Captain from behind.
Yoru burst out of the water, flying up with a kick that sent the Mist Ninja Captain flying.
The Mist Ninja Captain crouched, hands still pressing on the water surface; it wasn’t Yoru being perverted, it was just that this angle was too perfect for Thousand Years of Death.
The other Mist Ninja looked at Copper Fox in terror; this Konoha Anbu had actually used the mud to conceal an ambush on the Captain.
Yoru looked at the two nearby Mist Ninja, feeling he was terrifyingly strong.
At this moment, the long sword was dipped in shit—who dared to approach?
The Mist Ninja Squad Leader shouted: “Kill him!”
The four Mist Ninja within 3 meters visibility all charged at him.
These people couldn’t read the situation; weren’t they afraid of E. coli at all?
After continuously cutting down several people, Yoru disgustedly threw the ninja sword at a Mist Ninja Squad Leader.
The ninja sword pierced the Squad Leader’s abdomen.
Say hi to your Captain’s E. coli.
Yoru rushed into the thick fog, constantly seeking close-range opportunities, punching and shattering the Mist Ninja’s chests one by one.
The water surface slowly receded; by the time the water flow completely disappeared, this Mist Ninja Battalion was already mostly dead.
Explosions continued incessantly from the southwest; Yoru pressed forward.
Approaching the explosion, a blast of thick fog suddenly rushed forward, followed by a fierce wind, and finally a roar was heard.
The shockwave hit first, sound last; the explosion’s shockwave was so powerful.
Yoru grew increasingly uneasy in his heart—what exactly was fighting, why were the explosions so terrifying?
Was it Kiiroinu Captain? His Fire Release scale was sufficient enough.
The good news was that the explosions had weakened the thick fog, and Yoru’s line of sight was getting better.
More than ten Uchiha Ninja were retreating step by step.
Uchiha Touka led the remnants of a battalion, including Uchiha Fugaku, fighting and retreating in disarray.
Their opponent was a fat guy.
That fat guy’s arm held a thick, curved great sword.
No!
Advancing more than ten steps, Yoru realized that fat guy wasn’t human—it was the Hozuki Clan’s Steam Danger Explosion Might!
The infinite explosion secret jutsu once used by Second Mizukage Hozuki Gengetsu.
It used oil and water to create a clone; the clone was extremely fast, able to fly freely in the air.
Once attacked, the oil on the surface heated and expanded, the water inside rapidly vaporized, causing an explosion.
After the explosion, the surface oil cooled, restoring a child-like form, preparing for the next explosion.
Super strong taijutsu, infinite explosions—Steam Danger Explosion Might was almost invincible.
Yoru thought, no wonder the Uchiha Ninja he met on the road said they were targeted; Uchiha Ninja truly had no good way against Steam Danger Explosion Might.
The taijutsu advantage from Sharingan was useless against Steam Danger Explosion Might; it was a clone jutsu—hitting Steam Danger Explosion Might only made that clone explode sooner.
Uchiha’s specialty Fire Release would also make Steam Danger Explosion Might explode quickly.
As for genjutsu, it was even more useless against a clone.
Hozuki Clan ninja hid in the shadows, and just using clones left most Uchiha helpless.
He didn’t know which strong individual from the Hozuki Clan had come to the front line.
Four Uchiha stayed behind to cover the retreat; they formed hand seals, unleashing four Great Fireballs!
They wanted to force Steam Danger Explosion Might to explode, buying time for the others.
Steam Danger Explosion Might was too fast, Fire Release too slow; it dodged three Great Fireballs and deliberately collided with the last one.
At this point, Steam Danger Explosion Might was very close to the four Uchiha Ninja.
A white light flashed.
Terrifying high-temperature steam instantly expanded, engulfing the four Uchiha Ninja.
In the gushing steam, the four Uchiha Ninja’s flesh and blood melted first, splattering backward, followed by their skeletons shattering.
Steam Danger Explosion Might, so cruel.
Yoru retreated backward, dodging the explosion’s aftermath, and saw Steam Danger Explosion Might reappear, its surface oil slowly forming a child-like shape.
He rushed to the side.
Desperately fighting Steam Danger Explosion Might was pointless; he had to quickly find the Hozuki Clan’s manipulator.
Uchiha Ninja might not find the hidden Hozuki Ninja, but Yoru could.
He took down the Twin Blades Flounder from his back, looking ready to fight desperately with it.
He held the Twin Blades Flounder and smashed a stone to pieces.
Stone fragments flew, the Twin Blades Flounder humming from the impact.
This famous blade Twin Blades Flounder was just a big iron plate in Yoru’s hands; any Mist Ninja would feel heartbroken.
“Stop!”
Sure enough, a Mist Ninja couldn’t stand it and appeared from the thick fog.
Mist Ninja treated ninja swords like prized possessions, but Yoru was banging it like scrap metal.
Like someone reluctant to ride their brand-new car, Yoru stood up and stomped it.
Yoru looked toward the voice and saw two people.
One was two and a half meters tall, burly like a walrus, with red hair and a mouth full of sharp teeth.
Suikazan Fuguya!
The other was slim in build but carried a ninja sword covered in spikes, pointing at him.
Great Sword Samehada!
The wielder was a Hozuki Clan elite jonin, Hozuki Murgetsu.
In the original story, Suikazan Fuguya was the first wielder of Hidden Mist Village’s Great Sword Samehada.
For some reason, Hidden Mist Village erased the names and deeds of many Hozuki Clan members, as if they had never existed.
The Hozuki Clan, once Hidden Mist Village’s largest ninja clan, vanished without a trace in Hidden Mist Village after the Third Great Ninja War and beyond, with only a few surviving arduously.
Orochimaru’s protection of the Hozuki Clan was better than Hidden Mist Village’s.
Hozuki Suigetsu as Orochimaru’s test subject might not die, but returning to Hidden Mist Village would definitely mean death.
Yoru saw a figure rushing from afar—it was the Steam Danger Explosion Might that had just pursued the Uchiha Ninja.
Uchiha Touka saw Steam Danger Explosion Might disappear and let out a long sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Anbu’s Copper Fox had arrived, or they all might have died.
Yoru signaled to Uchiha Touka, indicating he could leave first; he’d handle things here.
Uchiha Touka nodded and said to the Uchiha Ninja behind him: “Go! We’ll find the other battalions!”
His Uchiha Battalion had only over 20 left, with heavy casualties.
Uchiha Fugaku couldn’t help asking: “Teacher, can Copper Fox Jonin defeat those two elite jonin?”
Uchiha Touka said: “At least he can hold out without defeat; Copper Fox has Absolute Defense Secret Jutsu—he won’t die easily.”
Yoru looked at Hidden Mist Village’s two strong individuals, thinking: an ambush turned into being ambushed, five Konoha battalions suffered heavy losses.
His own Captain promotion dream was also shattered.
Yoru looked up at the moon revealed after the fog cleared.
He’d use this full moon cycle’s death in this crucial ambush mission.
Before dying, he had to send out enough information to ensure promotion to Captain in the next life.
Yoru clanged the Twin Blades Flounder on a stone and said: “Hozuki Murgetsu, this junk twin blades could fish out a big fish like you—truly unexpected.”
Hozuki Murgetsu ground his sharp teeth, glaring viciously at Yoru banging the Twin Blades Flounder:
“The Seven Ninja Swords are precious heritage left by Clan Head Ghost Lantern Phantom Moon for the clan! How dare you, a Leaf Ninja, treat Twin Blades Flounder like this?”
“Oh? Heritage left by Second Mizukage for your Hozuki Clan? Then why do I see someone named Kusarinotsurumaru holding Needle-Blade Sewing Needle?” Yoru mocked:
“Wasn’t it you wasteful Hozuki descendants who couldn’t guard the ninja swords and had them forcibly taken by Hidden Mist Village?
This Seven Ninja Swords, Kusarinotsurumaru can wield, why can’t I?”
