Chapter 180: You’re One Of Danzo’s Men Too?
“Kusarinotsurumaru can take it, do you have to take it too?”
Hozuki Murgetsu heard this outrageous talk and became even more furious.
Under pressure from the village, handing over three ninja swords was already the greatest pain for the Hozuki Clan.
Steam Danger Explosion Might charged straight at Copper Fox.
The blade on Steam Danger Explosion Might’s arm slashed fiercely at Yoru’s chest.
Yoru’s arm turned red copper color, blocking this heavy blow, and immediately saw Steam Danger Explosion Might swell a bit.
This clone’s intense movement would also cause the surface oil to expand until it finally exploded.
Steam Danger Explosion Might was repelled by Yoru’s bronze light, circled around, and continued rushing at Yoru.
Yoru didn’t want to engage in a meaningless battle with Steam Danger Explosion Might, so he threw kunai at Hozuki Murgetsu and Suikazan Fuguya.
The two dodged the kunai, with Suikazan Fuguya forming hand seals to counterattack with Water Style.
This was exactly what Yoru wanted to see.
Since he was preparing to be reborn to change this terrible situation, there was no need to hide his trump card.
What he needed to do now was to reveal as much information as possible to prepare for changing the plot in the next life.
The owner of the great sword Samehada, Hozuki Murgetsu, and Suikazan Fuguya—these two should be the highest commanders and strongest of the Mist Ninja in this operation.
A massive water wave rushed toward Yoru.
Hozuki Murgetsu turned his head and said viciously: “Suikazan Fuguya! You idiot, don’t cause trouble!”
Hozuki Murgetsu knew that Suikazan Fuguya coveted the Twin Blades Flounder and was also a watcher arranged by Yuan Shi at his side.
When you hate someone, everything they do is wrong.
At this moment, Suikazan Fuguya using Water Style seemed to Hozuki Murgetsu like disrupting his rhythm.
A large amount of water appeared, greatly reducing the explosive power of Steam Danger Explosion Might.
Suikazan Fuguya said:
“Hozuki Murgetsu, you’re too slow. We were supposed to quickly deal with Konoha’s ambushers and retrieve the Twin Blades Flounder.
You insisted on using Steam Danger Explosion Might’s slow waves of explosions to kill the Uchiha ninja bit by bit, dragging it out.
You dragged it until Copper Fox came to us on his own. Don’t you think you’re incompetent?”
Hozuki Murgetsu sneered:
“You wouldn’t be stupid enough to think Uchiha ninja are easy to deal with, right? Steam Danger Explosion Might ignores genjutsu—who else could kill so many Uchiha ninja so easily?”
While the two were arguing, a figure suddenly appeared behind them.
Yoru’s bronze light-covered fist smashed fiercely at Hozuki Murgetsu’s back.
Hozuki Murgetsu’s scalp went numb, and at the last moment, he slightly turned his body.
The fist aimed at his spine smashed into his shoulder due to his dodge.
After Hozuki Murgetsu’s shoulder bone shattered, he barely managed to use Water Transformation Secret Jutsu.
His entire body turned into a puddle of water, collapsing under the surface.
Suikazan Fuguya stared in astonishment with wide eyes and hurriedly jumped backward.
“What kind of body flicker technique is this!” Suikazan Fuguya thought in shock, immediately recalling the legendary Hanzo’s Water Clone.
Only Water Clone had this effect.
But why did Konoha’s Anbu know Hanzo’s signature ninjutsu?
Yoru stared at Hozuki Murgetsu who reappeared from the water surface.
Hozuki Murgetsu’s shoulder bone was shattered, and one arm was crippled.
It seemed that as long as he was fast enough to hit him before Water Transformation Secret Jutsu, he could seriously injure him.
However, Hozuki Murgetsu’s injured arm turned into water, and with the reconstruction of Water Transformation Secret Jutsu, the serious injury actually healed.
This was?
The legendary Hozuki Clan’s medical secret jutsu, Water Transformation Healing Technique, which was much more effective than medical ninjutsu.
When the body suffered external injuries, it could use Water Transformation Healing Technique to reconstruct the body.
Yoru was very tempted. With this technique, wouldn’t it increase fault tolerance and make him unafraid of serious injuries?
Suikazan Fuguya on the side saw that Copper Fox wasn’t looking at him and hurriedly formed hand seals.
Over a dozen strands of orange hair extended, stabbing at Copper Fox from different angles.
He knew Copper Fox had absolute defense, so he made the hair like ropes, binding Copper Fox.
The hair tightened, binding Copper Fox tightly.
However, there was no smugness on Suikazan Fuguya’s face; he saw that Copper Fox’s hand had formed a seal at the end.
The hair instantly lost its target, only binding a puddle of water.
Yoru’s figure flickered behind Suikazan Fuguya.
“Suikazan Fuguya, what you want isn’t the Twin Blades Flounder, it’s the great sword Samehada, right?”
Suikazan Fuguya was stunned, and Yoru was also stunned.
Yoru felt something was off, weird. Later he thought, you can’t say “skin” huh.
With his secret exposed, Suikazan Fuguya’s orange hair danced wildly, stabbing fiercely backward.
Yoru’s figure had already disappeared.
Yoru flickered again in front of Suikazan Fuguya and said: “If you want it, you have to say it. If you don’t say it, how can I help you?”
Suikazan Fuguya went from initial shock to breaking out in cold sweat, then to slight calm.
“You’re also Lord Danzo’s man? Did Lord Danzo send you to help me seize the sword?”
Yoru’s eyes flickered.
Also?
Also Lord Danzo’s man?
After all this, Suikazan Fuguya was Lord Danzo’s man?
That meant, in this ambush, there was Lord Danzo’s shadow?
“Yeah, I’m also Lord Danzo’s man.” Yoru said: “Stop pretending, I’m here to help you seize the sword.”
Suikazan Fuguya said: “There are Mist Ninja around using mist to sense. It’s inconvenient for me to act directly against Hozuki Murgetsu. I can at most go easy and not use full power.”
“Oh? Sensing ninja?”
Yoru thought to himself, in the next life, in front of Hozuki Murgetsu, he should avoid using Water Clone if possible, and even if he used it, he had to be extremely cautious.
Water mist couldn’t serve as a medium for Water Clone; only a continuous water surface could.
“Then go easy.”
Yoru kicked Suikazan Fuguya flying with one foot.
Suikazan Fuguya mastered special techniques; his body skimmed across the water surface like skipping stones and quickly retreated into the distance.
Yoru was stunned. This guy was really slippery. No wonder he was eventually killed by Kisame Hoshigaki for betraying the Hidden Mist Village.
Hozuki Murgetsu saw Copper Fox forming hand seals again and instinctively swung the great sword Samehada, holding it horizontally behind him.
Clang!
The great sword Samehada collided with Yoru’s raised forearm.
In the next instant, Yoru’s expression changed!
His chakra was being devoured by Samehada!
Absolute Defense Copper Light developed cracks due to the chakra being devoured.
Hozuki Murgetsu dragged Samehada backward, its spikes scraping against Copper Fox’s skin.
Yoru retreated backward, looking in shock at his arm.
Several scratches appeared on the outer side of his forearm, with shallow wounds—this was the first time his absolute defense faced a threat.
Yoru thought to himself, in the next life, he must never clash head-on with Samehada.
His absolute defense was based on the earth release chakra refinement secret jutsu; if the chakra was devoured, he couldn’t maintain his absolute defense.
Hozuki Murgetsu held the great sword Samehada, with Steam Danger Explosion Might prowling nearby.
Every time the great sword Samehada slashed him, it caused his chakra to be drained, and the red copper-colored Absolute Defense Copper Light developed patches of cracks.
Steam Danger Explosion Might would occasionally find an opening and explode.
Yoru fought with Hozuki Murgetsu for a long time, didn’t see much valuable follow-up from Hozuki Murgetsu, pretended his chakra was exhausted, and failed to dodge Steam Danger Explosion Might.
After the white steam explosion, Yoru was killed by Steam Danger Explosion Might.
【Host death detected, Moon Arc System activating···】
Yoru’s vision went black, and his field of view changed.
In this life, he would use the plot advantage to find a way to break the situation.
