Chapter 78 Life and Death on the Line, The Terrifying Red Eyes
"Fog? How could such a thick fog suddenly rise up?" On the sea, Ishikawa's expression changed as he watched Kakashi's figure disappear quickly.
Such a prominent and abrupt thick fog is definitely not a natural phenomenon.
"This is a common ninjutsu used by the Hidden Mist Village for assassinations, the Hidden Mist Technique. Ishikawa, stay with me and don't make any rash moves." Kakashi suddenly stopped and said, quickly lifting his headband to reveal his scarlet three-tomoe Sharingan.
In this situation, only by relying on the Sharingan's insightful vision can one see the enemy's tracks.
"This is troublesome. The enemy has spotted us and is using ninjutsu to block us or prepare to assassinate us. Teacher, can you use Wind Release to disperse the thick fog?" Ishikawa asked softly, gripping the chakra dagger tightly in his hand, his mind on high alert.
“No, ordinary wind-style techniques can’t disperse such a large area of dense fog. And even if I expend chakra to disperse the fog, the enemy will just use the same trick again, which is pointless and just a waste of chakra.” Kakashi shook his head helplessly; he didn’t have that much chakra to waste.
It would be ridiculous if we were to waste chakra and not have the power to defeat our enemies!
Kakashi's answer left Ishikawa speechless, his lips twitching. Kakashi, always short of chakra, really is always a 50/50 situation...
For the first time, Ishikawa truly felt the terrifying boundary between life and death!
Even when he faced the Raikage directly before, he had never felt this panicked. All his fear stemmed from this white fog filled with murderous intent.
Facing unseen attacks and enemies, Ishikawa felt unprecedented psychological pressure!
The dangers and unexpected events of the ninja world are once again laid bare before Ishikawa's eyes in an even more brutal reality...
"Watch out!" Suddenly, just as Ishikawa was distracted by tension, Kakashi shouted and kicked him away.
Before Ishikawa could react after being kicked several meters away, a loud bang echoed across the sea...
"As expected of Kakashi with the Sharingan, he actually managed to block my attack! It seems you're worthy of my help in your funeral." Raiga couldn't help but glance at Kakashi, who used kunai and the back of his hand to block the attack from the two swords.
With Ranmaru's reminder, he was certain that his assassination technique had not revealed any flaws, but Kakashi still managed to block it!
So, is this the power of the Sharingan?
"Raiga the Lightning Blade! I didn't expect it to be Raiga Kurosuki, the fugitive ninja from Kirigakure. What, after defecting from Kirigakure, you've even abandoned the title of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist? You actually came to rob a merchant ship." Kakashi stared at the burly man in front of him, pretending to be teasing, but inwardly he felt something was wrong.
The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist are all elite Jonin, each no weaker than him. This is troublesome...
"What? Raiga Kurosugi, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist!" Ishikawa, who was standing nearby, heard Kakashi's words and his expression changed drastically, his face turning as black as the bottom of a pot!
Damn, this is so unlucky! Last time it was the Raikage, this time it's the Seven Ninja Swordsmen. How dare a mere genin (low-ranking ninja) receive such protagonist-like treatment...?
God, this is not letting him live!
"Oh, I forgot there's another small fry over there." Just as Ishikawa exclaimed, Kurosuki Raiga seemed to have thought of something and chuckled.
Upon seeing this, Kakashi's pupils contracted and he immediately turned his head.
The next instant, under the perception of his Sharingan, he saw two figures rushing straight towards Ishikawa from underwater, one after the other.
"Watch out underwater!" Instinctively, Kakashi's expression changed drastically as he immediately shouted a warning.
Hearing Kakashi's shout, Ishikawa instantly woke up and, without hesitation, unleashed chakra from his feet and leaped up to leave the spot!
In the blink of an eye, two figures appeared simultaneously the instant Ishikawa unleashed his chakra beneath his feet.
With a bang, the figure in front was struck by Ishikawa's chakra dagger and fell into the water!
But the figure behind him swiftly plunged a kunai into Ishikawa's back.
"Ugh..."
Almost the instant the kunai pierced his back, Ishikawa coughed up blood and fell into the sea with a splash, sinking to the bottom.
"One down!" The man who had succeeded laughed smugly as he watched Ishikawa sink limply into the sea.
He's just a lowly genin brat; a former Chunin from Kirigakure would be easy prey for him!
"Ishikawa!!" Upon witnessing this scene, Kakashi's eyes widened in fury, and electricity surged around him as his aura flared.
"Be careful." Just as Lei Ya was about to stop him, a warning suddenly sounded behind him, making him pause.
In that instant, Kakashi's figure transformed into lightning and appeared almost instantly behind the Chunin.
With a soft splatter, under the Chunin's resentful and terrified expression, Kakashi's kunai sliced across his neck, and blood spurted out...
"I once said that I would never let my subordinates die before my eyes again. But now, you have killed my most beloved disciple. Unforgivable!" As if possessed, Kakashi turned his head and stared at Raiga with his bloodshot left eye, his killing intent palpable.
He had just acknowledged and prepared to pass on the swordsmanship, but unexpectedly, he was separated from his loved one by death in the blink of an eye.
Unforgivable! How could he accept something like this?!
"Hmph, isn't it normal for a ninja to face death? Kakashi, it seems your rumors are just that... " Raiga scoffed, thinking that acting on emotions could never make one a true ninja.
"Damn it!!" Kakashi roared, his kunai flashing before Raiga's eyes like a blur.
call out……
In the blink of an eye, just before Kakashi swung his kunai, Raiga vanished in a flash.
"This is..." Kakashi frowned as he looked at Raiga who had suddenly disappeared, and the voice he had just heard echoed in his ears.
It seems someone is warning Raiya to take cover in advance!
"Over there, I see it..." Suddenly, Kakashi's left eye flashed crimson as he stared at a spot and instantly charged forward.
Can……
"What's going on? I clearly saw a chakra reaction here. The kind of human feedback that even has meridians can't lie." Kakashi frowned, completely confused, as his attack missed its mark.
Before he could think any further, he saw a chakra reaction coming towards him from within the thick fog...
Naturally, Kakashi immediately retaliated, without any surprise.
However, this time it was also a virtual attack with no one around.
"What on earth is going on? Could it be that thing we just saw??" Kakashi's mind raced, and he quickly recalled a suspicious detail he had seen earlier.
Behind Raiga, there seemed to be another person's chakra reaction.
Just as Kakashi was analyzing the critical moment, another attack erupted from the thick fog...
This time, it's a real attack mixed with deception.
With a bang, Kakashi, caught off guard, was accidentally sent flying by the electric current...
Faced with this attack that was a mix of real and feints, even Kakashi, with his Lightning Release armor, was in trouble!
[Is this the power of red eyes? It seems the teacher is in trouble. The only way to survive now is to burn our bridges!] Underwater, a venomous snake swims rapidly with its pupils flashing with an unusual color.
