Chapter 285: Chakra Is A Curse
Yoru looked at his own hands.
In the Ninja World, chakra is a curse.
The stronger the individual, the more tragic the ending.
Senju Clan, Uzumaki Clan, Uchiha Clan, none had a good end.
Bloodline ninjas are dissected by people, civilian ninjas bow their heads to strong individuals.
Every ninja is cursed by chakra, wars bring countless deaths to ninjas time and again.
Ninjas possess violence, yet they can never control it.
Many top figures in the Ninja World, Hashirama Senju, Uchiha Madara, Tobirama Senju, Naruto and others, saw the darkness of the Ninja World.
They all tried to change it, however, each one undoubtedly failed.
Chakra is a curse, powerful individual strength is a disaster for others and a curse for oneself.
Unless chakra is abandoned, there is no answer to this problem, this curse will accompany all ninjas.
Hanashika stepped forward and said: “Captain, there are many rioting miners, Cloud ninjas have come with a squad.
Nobles of the Land of Moon sent 50 samurai and rogue ninjas.”
Yoru waved his hand: “Let’s go, today we’ll cross off the first target in the Assassination Manual.”
Yoru was the first to charge down the mountain.
He clashed with the Cloud ninja jonin Takami.
Takami’s Lightning Release: Thunderous Roar was indeed impressive, he simplified a four-seal ninjutsu into two seals.
Yoru confirmed Takami’s abilities and died by Takami’s hand.
【Host death detected, Moon Arc System is starting up···】
He resurrected on the previous full moon night.
【Moon Arc activated!
Host has only one resurrection opportunity per month, resurrects on the previous full moon night after death.
Rewarding one lucky draw opportunity···】
In this resurrection reward, Yoru selected mastery-level Lightning Release: Thunderous Roar, gaining a new ninjutsu for the sub-account Shiroki.
Standing once again on the mountaintop of the Land of Moon, Yoru looked at the miners being escorted down the mountain.
He led the Flower Deer Squad charging downward.
Takami looked up and saw several Anbu ninjas charging down along the sun’s rays.
Not knowing which ninja village’s Anbu it was, Takami shouted: “Enemy attack!”
Yoru turned his head and saw a miner boy actually seizing the chaos to grab a samurai’s sword.
A trace of relief rose in Yoru’s heart; in this world rife with curses, some people were unwilling, some resisted.
No matter who you are, I, Yoru, will definitely help out.
Cloud ninja jonin Takami formed hand seals, spewing a Great Spear of Lightning from his mouth.
The lightning illuminated his face, yet it could not dispel the unease in his eyes.
Daring to enter the Land of Moon’s Anbu, their strength must be extremely high.
When he clearly saw the special mask under the hood, the unease in his heart turned into fear!
Konoha Anbu Copper Fox!
The one the Third Raikage failed to kill in one strike!
The fox disappeared into the ground with Earth Release, dodging the Thunderous Roar.
Takami felt a chill; Copper Fox’s strength was very high, yet he didn’t engage head-on, immediately going stealth, his combat style extremely elusive.
The Great Spear of Lightning from Lightning Release: Thunderous Roar missed, Takami formed hand seals again.
This time it was Lightning Release: Earth Walk.
Injecting Lightning Release into the ground to strike enemies below the ground.
Takami’s hand had just slapped the ground when he suddenly heard the sound of something breaking through the air behind him.
Takami didn’t care about using ninjutsu anymore and hurriedly rolled to the side.
Why was Copper Fox’s Earth Style: Fish in Water Reflection Jutsu so fast?
Seeing Takami dodge his kunai’s horizontal thrust, Yoru thought to himself that Takami was indeed a jonin, with swift reactions.
He changed the horizontal swing of the kunai to a throw.
Takami had just rolled once when the kunai followed closely, piercing into his lower back.
He didn’t care to pull out the kunai and turned to face Copper Fox.
Copper Fox had already formed a seal, Water Style: Water Severing Wave rushed out.
A high-speed water line shot out, piercing Takami’s heart.
Suppressed throughout, he, a jonin, had no power to counter; was this the terror of Copper Fox?
Takami didn’t even have time to use Substitution Jutsu or Clone Jutsu.
The reason the battle was suppressed was Copper Fox’s exaggerated speed with the Earth Style: Fish in Water Reflection Jutsu.
In just an instant, he was behind Takami.
Yoru’s Earth Style: Fish in Water Reflection Jutsu was just a feint; after infiltrating the ground with it, he switched to Mayfly Technique.
The principle of Mayfly Technique is high-speed movement in underground organic matter networks, while Earth Style: Fish in Water Reflection Jutsu changes the density of underground soil to swim through it.
The speed difference between the two was too great.
The super high speed and unpredictability of Mayfly Technique could fully serve as the core ability of some assassination-type jonin.
The Water Severing Wave water beam dissipated, blood sprayed from Takami’s chest, impossible to stop.
Still have to thank you for your mastery-level Lightning Release: Thunderous Roar; the third bullet of Five Elemental Great Exploding Air Bullet is complete.
Mastery-level Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet, Wind Release: Great Breakthrough, Lightning Release: Thunderous Roar; now only missing Earth Release and Water Style impact-type mastery ninjutsu.
The Flower Deer Squad went to deal with the Cloud ninja squad.
All four of Hanashika undid the Ten Seals, using combined ninjutsu to suppress the Cloud ninjas and gain the first-move advantage.
Yoru then looked toward the valley, watching that special miner boy.
The miner boy’s clothes were torn, his stance holding the katana was somewhat professional, but not much.
The long sword was too long for him, but his gaze was firm; facing the five charging samurai, he was very calm, with a bit of the resolve of putting oneself to death to be reborn, possessing good combat talent.
Some people turn into fools when facing danger, called freeze reaction; it’s the instinct of prey pretending to be a corpse when encountering a predator. Some predators don’t eat carrion, so pretending to be dead might escape a disaster.
Some people, when facing danger, have adrenaline surge and become even more excited.
That miner boy was like this; facing samurai in armor with tall figures, he instead charged up with his blade.
Extremely fast speed, a combat style disregarding injury, agile movements; he accurately stabbed the long sword into the gap in the armor.
No swordsmanship, purely relying on talent.
After killing one samurai, another charged over, slashing down at the miner boy.
The miner boy wanted to pull out the long sword, but it was stuck in the armor, only half pulled out.
The boy looked at the enemy right before his eyes, even smelling the scent of the samurai’s armor.
The samurai’s blade headed straight for his throat!
The blade reflected the sun’s light, chillingly sharp.
At that moment, a kunai shot over.
The kunai precisely stabbed into the samurai’s wrist, blood squeezing out from the side of the kunai.
The samurai couldn’t hold the blade; seeing this, the miner boy didn’t pull his first blade, reaching out to grab the samurai’s long sword that he couldn’t hold due to the wrist injury.
Grabbing the long sword, he turned and precisely stabbed into the samurai’s armor gap.
The nearby other samurai hesitated to advance.
The samurai glanced at the battle of the ninjas on the mountain, exchanged looks, and hurriedly fled.
The Cloud ninja squad leader was dead; this mission was bound to fail.
The miner boy looked up toward the mountaintop.
That kunai just now came from the ninja wearing the fox mask.
So strong… The miner boy turned and charged toward his companions bound with ropes.
