With his decision made, Seimei didn't hesitate any longer. He immediately returned to his previous state and sprinted forward at an extremely fast pace. Without any surprises, the hawk followed him once again. Seimei ignored it and continued forward until he reached a dense forest. After confirming that the view above his head was blocked, he stopped. Then, he crossed his hands and used the "Shadow Clone Technique" to create a shadow clone. Seimei looked at the clone and nodded. The shadow clone didn't speak, but also nodded and ran straight ahead. Seimei, on the other hand, flashed to the side of the path, concealing his presence and waiting for the pursuers to arrive. ... Time passed by second by second. In the blink of an eye, more than ten minutes had gone by. The expected enemies still hadn't appeared, making Seimei wonder if his guess was wrong. But in the end, he patiently continued to wait. A few more minutes later. With faint footsteps, two figures appeared on the forest path. They were clad in black robes and wore masks, dressed exactly like the two the shadow clone had encountered before. They were clearly also Anbu ninja from Iwagakure. Seeing these two, Seimei couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. As the saying goes, "It's not the thief you fear, but the thief who has his eye on you." Knowing that there were enemies targeting him but being unable to find them was the most agonizing thing. But since they had appeared, there was nothing to be afraid of. In the ninja world, in the end, it was still strength that spoke. With this thought, Seimei seized the opportunity and instantly threw three kunai, aiming directly at one of the Iwa Anbu. What could he say? They were indeed Anbu ninja; their reactions were fast. The moment he sensed danger, he dodged to the side. However, the kunai Seimei threw weren't just kunai; each had an explosive tag attached to it. Boom, boom, boom~ With three deafening explosions, three fireballs rose, instantly dispelling the surrounding darkness. Seimei's Sharingan spun rapidly, instantly locking onto the landing spots of the two Iwa Anbu. Without any hesitation, he flipped his palm and threw three more shuriken. Following the principle of striking while the iron was hot, this time he targeted the same Iwa Anbu as before. This person was already dazed by the shockwave from the explosive tags, and now suddenly facing another attack, he couldn't react at all. In a hurry, he only managed to block two of the shuriken. As for the last one... He twisted his body, trying to dodge, but it was too late. In the end, he could only protect his vital points, leaving a deep wound on his waist. Seimei pressed his advantage, his hands swiftly forming seals. He took a deep breath and then exhaled sharply. The next moment, a gale swept through, and a massive cyclone appeared in front of Seimei, advancing forward at an incredible speed. Along the way, flowers, plants, and trees were uprooted. Even some small stones were swept up and flew into the distance. This scene, resembling a natural disaster, was the power of Seimei using 'Wind Release: Great Breakthrough' at full strength. This single attack consumed nearly a thousand chakra points from Seimei. But it had to be said, the effect was truly remarkable. After clearing the area, without the trees blocking the way, the moonlight shone directly down, making the surroundings even brighter. Amidst the chaos, two figures appeared - the two Iwa Anbu. At this moment, they formed a triangle with Seimei, ensuring that if he used the Sharingan, the other person could attack him. However, this was useless. Without the cover of the complex surroundings, even facing two opponents, Seimei wasn't afraid at all. "Kill!" With a low shout, Seimei drew his sword and charged forward, almost instantly reaching one of the Iwa Anbu - the same one he had deliberately targeted before. As the saying goes, "Pick the soft persimmon to squeeze." He had already injured this opponent before, so naturally, he wanted to press his advantage now. As for the other one, he could deal with him later. Soon, the three were locked in combat. Seimei could clearly feel that these two were far weaker than the two Iwa Anbu the shadow clone encountered on the other path. Perhaps it was because they weren't specialized in direct combat but in other abilities. In any case, it only took Seimei a little over ten minutes to kill both of them. During the fight, the two counterattacked multiple times, but under Seimei's lv5 'Swordsmanship' and three-tomoe Sharingan, they couldn't create much of a threat. However, to end the battle quickly, Seimei still adopted some tactics of trading injuries for advantages, resulting in some minor wounds on his body. Fortunately, he had the 'Healing Technique', so these injuries were nothing. After briefly treating his wounds, Seimei didn't linger and immediately left the area. He didn't even bother cleaning up the battlefield. (End of Chapter)
