Chapter 22 Garbage Chapter
"Do you also yearn for death?"
He pointed his short sword diagonally at the ground, his eyes fixed on the two henchmen. His gaze was like the blade in the cold wind. The two henchmen felt a chill on their necks, as if they were about to be beheaded. They couldn't help but take a step back, their hearts filled with horror.
What's going on? The other party is just a student, how can they have such a strong murderous aura?
One of the henchmen hesitated and looked at his leader: "Lord Kuroko no Ryuichi, maybe we should just give up. He's not easy to deal with, and we don't need to fight him."
Another henchman immediately chimed in, "Yes, yes, there are lots of weaklings on the island, we can hunt them down."
"What a cowardly piece of trash."
When Kurosu Ryuichi saw that his men were frightened by a single glance from Mikami, he became furious and raised his blade to threaten them.
"Either kill him, or I'll kill you all."
The two henchmen glanced at Kurosuki Ryuichi's sword, which was crackling with electricity, and swallowed hard. They could only pick up their weapons and muster their courage to face Mimori.
"Come on!"
With a shout, Kurosu Ryuichi's two henchmen charged at Mikami from the left and right, launching a pincer attack.
"You're courting death!"
Mi Shou snorted coldly, lowered his body slightly, gathered his strength in his legs, stomped the ground hard, and charged to the left, his short sword flashing upwards.
Blood splattered, staining the earth red. The opponent was cleaved in two from the left waist to the right shoulder, falling to the ground and dying in agony.
"How is that possible!"
The other henchman was horrified by his companion's fate and didn't care about Kurosuki Ryuichi's threat. He turned to run away, but he was too slow. Just as he turned around, Mikami was behind him and took his life with a single slash.
"Pah, what a useless piece of trash."
When Kurosu Ryuichi saw his men being killed, he showed no sadness, but rather disgust and loathing.
He originally intended to use his subordinates to test Mi Shou's strength and exhaust his stamina, hoping to create an opportunity to ambush him. Unfortunately, his two subordinates were easily killed and did not serve any purpose.
"Ninja Art: Hidden Mist Technique!"
Kurosuki Ryuichi used ninjutsu, and a thick fog gradually rose around him. Before long, Mikami could only see the environment two or three meters in front of him, and everything else was covered by the ethereal fog.
Mi Shou narrowed his eyes slightly, looked around, his muscles tense, and held his short sword horizontally in front of him, like a tiger on the hunt, ready to strike and kill at any moment.
Although he had studied the Hidden Mist Technique and, as a member of the Hidden Mist Village, Mikami had gained some understanding of it through gossip from those around him.
The Hidden Mist Technique is not just a ninjutsu that condenses mist; it also includes related taijutsu and ninjutsu.
For example, moving through fog without causing abnormal movement of the fog around your body, spotting enemies in fog, and concealing your own location and the location of your voice.
Without mastering these abilities, even if fog is condensed, it will be difficult to create a favorable battlefield environment.
"Although I learned the art of concealing mist from Kyosuke, I can only use it and I haven't mastered the tricks of it. Fortunately, the enemy is just a student. I don't believe he can kill people silently in the mist like the adult Zabuza. There must be a weakness in his defenses."
Mi Shou calmed his mind, his breathing became even, his eyes looked at the surrounding mist, his ears caught every sound, and his skin felt the slightest movement of air.
Suddenly, in Mi Shou's peripheral vision, an arc of electricity flashed, the slight crackling sound of the arc standing out starkly in the silent yet tense battlefield.
This is not a decoy, not a clone, it's a real attack!
In an instant, Mi Shou reached a conclusion, turned around abruptly, and held the short sword upright in front of him.
choke!
Amidst the crackling of electric arcs, the sound of the two swords clashing was exceptionally jarring.
Mikami's sword blocked Kurosuki Ryuichi's blade. The blade exerted considerable force, which surprised Mikami slightly. However, he stepped back with his right foot and leaned forward, steadily blocking the impact without taking a step back.
At the same time, Mikami glanced at Kurosuki Ryuichi's legs and found that there were faint arcs of electricity flashing on his legs. It was clear that the leg muscles had been stimulated with lightning chakra, temporarily enhancing his strength.
"What an amazing guy. Is this the foundation of the ninja clan? You are stronger than I thought. It's a pity you ran into me."
After a brief exchange, Mi Shou had a rough idea of his opponent's strength, which made him more composed. He even had the leisure to use words to disturb his opponent's mind.
Damn it!
His all-out attack was blocked. Despite using his maximum strength, it was as if he had hit a mountain and had no effect. Kurosuki Ryuichi was both shocked and furious. Hearing the contempt in Mikami's words, he wished he could tear Mikami to pieces.
Even if you can't kill me with one blow, at least dodge and give me a chance to attack.
Even if you don't avoid it, at least make some noise so I can put pressure on you.
Even if you're not flustered, you don't need to have such a calm look in your eyes or such a composed voice!
I'm going to kill you, you damn bastard!
However, despite his burning rage, Kurosuki Ryuichi retained a sliver of clarity, forcefully suppressing his anger. After his attack failed, he immediately retreated and disappeared into the mist once more.
He could see that Mi Shou was stronger than him in strength, speed, reaction time, and even swordsmanship. However, Mi Shou clearly lacked a deep understanding of the Hidden Mist Technique and was only relying on physical skills to withstand the attacks.
Don't panic. The situation is in your favor now. As long as you keep attacking in the thick fog, you will eventually achieve results.
While Kurosuki Ryuichi was mentally preparing himself and calming his anger, Mimori made a new move.
"Water Clone Technique!"
Mi Shou calmly formed hand seals and slowly recited the ninjutsu he was using. Two identical clones appeared beside him.
"I slowed down the hand seals and even revealed the name of the ninjutsu. Even though you're not very strong, you should be able to see it clearly."
The three guardians stood back to back, facing three different directions, and their voices continued to emanate.
"Two water clones appeared before your eyes. You should know which one is the real body, right? You haven't fallen into my trap. However, are the water clones really clones, and is the real body the real body? Ninjas are synonymous with cunning. Perhaps my lies are full of lies."
The sound gradually spread through the mist, seemingly carrying an invisible pressure that weighed heavily on Kurosuki Ryuichi's heart.
"You've felt my strength, haven't you? If I make even one mistake, my blade will slit your throat and sever your arteries. No, no, no, it might even pierce your heart, leaving you to suffer a long, agonizing death. Hmm, you're quite strong. I might not be able to kill you with a single blow. I might sever your legs, and you'll crawl desperately on the ground, fighting for your life, while I slowly catch up to you step by step, piercing your body with my dagger and pinning you to the ground."
When Mikami's words reached Kurosuki Ryuichi's ears, the scene described in Mikami's words involuntarily appeared in Kurosuki Ryuichi's mind. His breathing became more rapid involuntarily, and the veins on his forehead gradually bulged.
"Damn it, I can't fall for it. He's trying to distract me. The more he says that, the more it shows he's bluffing and that he's not as strong as he seems."
Kurosuki Ryuichi bit his lower lip hard, drawing blood, and the pain and sticky blood brought him some calm.
