Chapter 73: S-Rank Rebel Ninja, Bamboo Cutter Cat!
Faced with Taketori Yan's questioning, Taketori Neko showed a mocking smile.
"Patriarch, you are just as narrow-minded as I thought before."
"Your vision can only be limited to one clan."
"What does the rest of the Taketori clan have to do with you?"
"It's just that we have the same blood flowing in our bodies."
"What's that?"
"Will a truly generous person care about this?"
"All they want is a normal life in the village."
"It's you who want to coerce them."
"But now, I have taken everything on my shoulders."
After saying that, Taketori Neko raised the sword in his hand and pointed it in the direction of Taketori Yan.
"Taketori Neko, are you really going to kill me too?"
Taketori Yan met Taketori Neko's gaze.
"I'm not the radical you say. What I want is to maintain balance. Otherwise, I wouldn't have given up on the ideas of Taketori and others and chosen to deceive the Hyuga clan."
"And given the current situation of the Taketori clan, do you think it would be good if I, the clan leader of the Taketori clan, were gone?"
"Can the remaining people of the Taketori clan protect the family's assets?"
"If you still have a little bit of the Taketori clan in your heart, you shouldn't kill me."
"Instead, explain all this to the Mizukage-sama."
The Taketori cat looked at Taketori En, and his eyes became disgusted.
"Taketori Yan, I didn't expect you to be such a coward."
"Whether I have the Taketori Clan in my heart is not up to you."
"Senior Zhenshui will take care of everything."
"He will become the new chief of the Taketori Clan."
"As for you, it is true that you are not a member of the radical faction, but as the chief of the Taketori Clan, you can't even control the situation within the family. You are too incompetent!"
"You are very responsible for the Taketori Clan becoming what it is now."
"I have to kill them."
"They have to be killed by me."
"It's all because of you."
"Now, let me end it all!"
Taketori Cat raised the dragon bone, and at the moment the voice fell, it slashed at Taketori Yan fiercely.
"Ding!"
Taketori Yan drew out the short knife at his waist to resist.
Accompanied by a recoil force, Taketori Yan stepped back several steps.
"Is this the new ninja sword made by the forger?"
Taketori Yan stared at the dragon bone.
Because of the force from the recoil, Taketori Yan could feel that Taketori Cat's strength was not as good as his own, but during the fight, Taketori Cat did not even retreat half a step.
Taketori Yan knew that this must be the ability of Longgu.
Taketori Cat did not answer, but the second knife fell immediately.
"Ding!"
Taketori Yan continued to resist.
But this time, it was different.
The moment the two blades touched, Taketori Yan's face changed.
Because Taketori Yan clearly felt that Taketori Cat's knife was much stronger than the previous one.
The short knife in Taketori Yan's hand was directly broken into two pieces under this collision.
"Puff!"
The blade of Longgu cut through Taketori Yan's chest.
A wound deep enough to see the white bones appeared.
Taketori Yan's expression was extremely alert.
"What a strong power!"
"Can this ninja sword add power?"
Taketori Yan looked down at the broken knife in his hand, his face a little ugly.
"Another ninja sword of the level of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Hidden Mist."
"It is obviously weaker than me, but it can bring such a great threat to me. The ability of this ninja sword just restrains me. What I have in my hand is just a broken sword, and it is broken now."
If it were a ninjutsu ninja or a genjutsu ninja, they would not be so passive when facing the dragon bone.
However, most of the ninjas of the Taketori clan are physical skills and ninja tools.
The same is true for Taketori En.
The Taketori cat did not give Taketori En time to think.
Instead, he quickly chopped down another sword.
Taketori En resisted with all his strength.
But this time, Taketori En found that the sword dropped by the Taketori cat did not have as much power as last time.
Taketori En's eyes flickered.
"Isn't it a superposition of times?"
With the fourth sword, Taketori En felt the huge power again.
The short sword that had already been broken broke again.
But this time, Taketori En was mentally prepared. At the moment when the sword broke, he took out a kunai and blocked the sword of the Taketori cat.
"I know."
Taketori Yan looked at the dragon bone.
"You can only stack it once and use it at intervals."
"The first sword is weak, the second sword is strong, the third sword is weak, and the fourth sword is strong."
Taketori Yan felt a little relieved.
After knowing the law of the dragon bone's ability, Taketori Yan's response became much calmer.
Taketori Neko frowned.
"Have you realized the ability of the dragon bone... As a clan leader, Taketori Yan, you are not qualified, but as a combat ninja, you are stronger than them."
"But who told you that I can only use the dragon bone like this?"
Taketori Neko sneered in his heart.
The dragon bone can absorb the impact of the collision, but this does not mean that this impact must be used in the second sword. It can be retained for the third and fourth swords.
As long as it does not exceed the time, it will be fine.
Therefore, when Zhutori Yan, who was making a resisting posture with all his strength, moved the kunai in his hand towards the dragon bone, he did not feel the equivalent power falling on his kunai.
Taking inflammation out of bamboo, using too much force.
His body couldn't help but lean forward.
Zhuchuimao dwarfed and rushed forward, passing by Zhuchuiyan.
"Pfft!"
A huge wound appeared on Zhutoriyan's waist.
The wound was so huge that one could see the waist that seemed to be beating inside.
Zhu Chuiyan froze.
Zhutori Cat did not look back, but just turned the wrist holding the dragon bone and stabbed Zhutori Yan in the back.
Pull out.
"puff!"
Blood gushes out like a fountain.
"boom!"
Bamboo Touyan's figure fell down.
Taketori Neko glanced at it lightly.
"This knife, called Dragon Bone, can absorb the impact of collision and then release it."
"But it didn't say that he must be released if he has to be stabbed."
"I gave him the title of Demon Sword and lied that by killing you, I would gain power. For this reason, I attacked you and almost wiped out the Zhutori clan."
"On my own I bear all the sins."
"The Taketori clan will enter a new era."
"The Taketori clan, led by incompetent people like you and narrow-minded people, will never appear again."
“Putting the village first.”
"This is my way of ninja!"
Zhu Chuiyan's body twitched, and there was no more movement, and his life was completely cut off.
The other side.
Loquat Juzo looked at the ice sculpture in front of him.
Among the ice sculptures, there was a person frozen.
He is the elite Jonin of the Taketori clan.
Loquat Juuzang shook his head and took a step forward.
"Break it apart, Blue Rose!"
next moment.
"Crack!"
The ice sculpture shattered, along with the body of the elite Jonin of the Taketori clan who was frozen inside.
It turned into countless pieces and scattered all over the place.
Zhutori Cat held the keel and came to the center of Zhutori's station.
Some of the Taketori survivors looked over in the dark.
Taketori Neko narrowed his eyes slightly, suddenly raised the knife, showing a crazy expression, and his movements became exaggerated.
"I understand!"
"Hahahahaha!"
"I, Taketori Neko, have become enlightened!"
The rich smell of blood and strong killing intent merged into an astonishing momentum.
The bamboo cat looked up to the sky and laughed.
At this moment, the remaining people in Zhutori looked at Zhutori Cat with only fear in their hearts.
"Crazy! Crazy!"
"This Taketori Neko is crazy!"
"Everyone is dead!"
"Has no one else in the village noticed yet?"
"Someone come quickly."
"Patrol Ninja!"
"Anbu ninja!"
"Mizukage-sama!"
The remaining Taketori people looked at the Taketori cat with frightened expressions, and looked helplessly outside the Taketori station, hoping that someone would show up at this time to help them.
However, when Osamu Uehara heard Taketori Neko's somewhat crazy voice and looked at Taketori Neko's figure from a distance, he only felt a very desolate feeling in his heart.
Loquat Juzo is here.
"Taketori Neko, you stole the ninja sword's dragon bones and slaughtered your own people. Your crime is extremely heinous and unforgivable."
"Suffer death!"
Loquat Shizang seal.
"Water escape, water dragon bullet technique!"
A huge water dragon appeared instantly, looking down at Taketori Neko from a high position.
"Loquat Juzo?"
Zhutori Mao pretended to have a change of expression.
"Mizukage-sama already knows that ANBU ninjas are on the way. Mizukage-sama will come personally. Taketori Neko, you have committed a big crime. No one can save you today."
The appearance of Loquat Juzo gave the people of Zhutori some peace of mind.
And when he heard that the ANBU ninjas and the third Mizukage were preparing to come, he was even more relieved.
"Very good."
"Mizukage-sama is coming in person."
"Taketori Neko can no longer kill people and become arrogant."
"We are saved."
Taketori Neko defeated the water dragon and looked in the direction of Loquat Juzo.
"I am right!"
"I just want to become stronger."
"What's wrong with me?"
"You can't kill me."
"Now, as long as I want to leave, Kirigakure Village, no one can stop me."
"Even the Mizukage!"
After saying that, Zhutori Neko turned around sharply and ran out.
Loquat Juuzang chased after him.
The two people quickly left Taketori Island.
The figure of the third Mizukage appeared at Taketori's station.
"Mizukage-sama!"
The Zhutori people seemed to have found a backbone and surrounded them one after another.
He denounced Taketori Neko's behavior to the Third Mizukage.
The third Mizukage showed a sad expression.
"I didn't expect something like this to happen. I didn't expect Taketori Neko to be such a person. This is a tragedy. I'm sorry that I came late, otherwise fewer people would have died."
"This is a dereliction of duty on my part, Mizukage."
"ANBU ninja, follow my orders and pursue the Taketori Neko."
"If you can't catch someone, don't come back."
The ANBU ninjas all responded.
"Yes, Mizukage-sama."
The Third Mizukage looked around.
"I declare that Taketori Neko stole the dragon bones of the ninja sword and massacred people of his own clan. His crime is unpardonable. From now on, he will be listed as an S-level traitorous ninja of Kirigakure Village. This wanted order will be effective for a long time."
The people of the Taketori cheered the Third Mizukage's announcement.
However, the Third Mizukage's announcement of a wanted order actually meant that Taketori Cat would not die today.
After being out of everyone's sight, Taketori Cat and Biwa Juzo stopped.
"Cat, take care."
Biwa Juzo looked at Taketori Cat and sighed.
"For the Taketori clan and the village, you have worked hard."
Taketori Cat shook his head.
"For the village, this is nothing."
After hesitating for a while, Taketori Cat said: "Senior Juzo, I have an unwelcome request."
"What?"
"If there are any talented juniors in the Taketori clan, can you help me take care of them? If possible, can you bring them to the Forging Island?"
If it was before, Taketori Cat would not say such a thing.
However, after a night, Taketori Cat's mentality has changed a little.
Taketori Cat found that he didn't seem to care so much about the Taketori clan.
Therefore, Taketori Neko was very grateful to Uehara Osamu who proposed to change the way of exterminating the entire Taketori clan to the current way of handling it. And Taketori Neko knew that no matter who the Mizukage was in the future, Uehara Osamu's status in the Hidden Mist Village would be unique.
Any ninja who got the ninja sword would be very close to Uehara Osamu.
Maybe Uehara Osamu will not become the Mizukage in the future.
He will not spend time on handling government affairs, but more on forging.
However, Uehara Osamu's status in the Hidden Mist Village may not be lower than that of the Mizukage.
Ninja swords will become a school of the Hidden Mist Village.
It is still the kind that can be passed down.
Biwa Juzo nodded.
"It's okay to take care of it, but I can't make the decision on entering the forging island. It's up to Shu. The most I can do is to recommend it to Shu."
"That's enough, Senior Juzo, thank you."
"Okay, then I'll take you here, goodbye, take care."
"Goodbye."
Biwa Juzo left.
The Taketori Neko looked deeply in the direction of the Hidden Mist Village.
"From today on, I am alone."
"But my heart will always belong to the Hidden Mist Village."
The Taketori Neko turned around and looked in the direction of the Land of Fire.
"My mission is not over yet."
"There are still some radical members of the Taketori clan on the battlefield of the Land of Fire."
"I have to get rid of them for the village!"
Suddenly.
A figure approached this side at a very fast speed.
It was Taketori Shinsui who had just been released from the underground prison of the Taketori clan.
Taketori Shinsui looked a little embarrassed. He had been imprisoned in the prison for a long time and had not changed his clothes. He looked dirty and was staring at the Taketori Neko.
But in the end, he said nothing and just sighed.
The Taketori Neko showed a smile at the corner of his mouth.
Without hesitation, his figure flashed and soon disappeared.
The Third Mizukage returned to the Mizukage Building.
The Taketori Neko left the Hidden Mist Village smoothly.
The Anbu ninja took the responsibility for the failure of the pursuit.
The Third Mizukage arranged some ninjas to assist the Taketori clan.
Cleaning up the bodies, collapsed houses, damaged roads, etc.
Uehara Osamu and others returned to the Forge Island.
However, this matter was far from over.
The news that the Taketori clan was almost exterminated swept the entire ninja world in a very short time.
For a time, people's attention was diverted from the war.
