Land Of Water.
Hidden Mist Village.
"Who is he?"
Looking at the figure who appeared in her sight, Terumi couldn't help but look towards Ao but was surprised when she saw the shock on his face.
"That hair... that sword... he's... Akagami Shanks"
Ao said with fear in his eyes as his whole body was shaking with fear.
"What! That Person who killed Konoha Sword Demon and Third Hokage."
Terumi was shocked as she looked towards Kozuki with fear.
She still remembers the terrifying strength of Kozuki even after so many years.
And during the Third World War, she was among those Shinobi who was just stunned by his aura.
Honestly, despite being from other villages, Terumi never really hated Kozuki since she knew he could have killed her during the Chunin exam, but he let them go.
And even after defeating the entire mist alone, he chose the easy path and didn't cause too much bloodshed, which made her admire him even more.
They were obviously of the same age, but the difference was so much.
Kozuki was someone she had set up as a target to surpass, but she was saddened when she heard about his death.
Now seeing the Person who can even kill someone as strong as Kozuki, the fear in her heart kept increasing.
"What's he doing here?"
Ignoring the fear in her heart, Terumi asked the scared Ao beside her.
"He's a mysterious person; during these several years no one could find him, and no one knows what his purpose is"
Ao could only hope that Kozuki wasn't here to cause trouble. Otherwise, it might be a problem.
"Konoha reinforcements might be here soon; they could help us deal with him if he wants to fight."
Before they started the rebellion, Terumi had set off a messenger towards Konoha requesting to help them as after dealing with Yagura, Mist will form an official alliance with Konoha.
Terumi knew that only capable of controlling a Kage-level powerhouse was someone from the Uchiha possessing the Mangekyo Sharingan.
She knew that some years ago, Konoha was attacked by a person who could control Nine Tails.
She wrote her concern in the message delivered to Konoha that the Person who controlled Mizukage and attacked Konoha might be the same Person.
In case if the Person who controls Yagura attacks them and his strength is too strong for them to deal with, Konoha reinforcements can help them.
She had complete confidence. After reading her messages, Minato will send someone to support her.
"Roar..."
At this moment, Three Tails bombarded by his attack finally appeared in sight again after the mist and smoke caused by the attack dissipated.
The Shell of the three tails broke, and the pain made it roar in anger.
Three-Tails soon spotted Kozuki but couldn't see him clearly, but since he was the reason for its injury, in anger, it opened its mouth wide again, trying to attack once again.
Looking at the angry Three-Tails, Kozuki shook his head as he knew that the situation was already beyond words.
Clink...
Kozuki put his hand on the hilt of his sword as Kozuki half pulled the blade out.
Three-Tails finally completed another Bijudama and wanted to fire it towards Kozuki, but at this moment, whether it was the three tails or everyone else on the battlefield.
They all felt their body out of control as they started to shake in fear.
"What's this terrifying aura?"
The quivering Terumi looked towards Kozuki and couldn't help but say in a despairing voice.
In the unbelievable eyes of everyone present, Kozuki pulled out his sword completely, and dark matter enveloped his sword completely.
Swish...Swish
An air-cutting sound spread throughout the battlefield as everyone else saw the most unbelievable scene they had ever seen.
"How's this...possible."
Terumi fell on her knees as she looked at the sight in front with despair.
Whether it was Ao or every shinobi present, they were utterly bewildered by sight in front.
The Three-Tails seemed to have remembered something as its eyes were full of fear.
A thousand-meter-long and nearly half-wide red slash that reached the heavens blinded the eyes of everyone.
The mist around swept away as even the clouds were scattered away by the pressure of the slash.
The slash suddenly fell as the Bijudama and Three-Tails seemed like an ant in front of it.
Boom...
Without any hindrance, The Bijudama and the Three tails vanished immediately as the intensity of the attack did not increase.
The slash fell on the big lake at the rear of the village.
The water was split into two sides by the slash as two towering waves appeared on both sides, leaving a massive gap between as even the ground below was visible.
"The...sea...was... divided."
The eyes of every one were fixed on the sight in front as despair was easily visible could be seen in them.
Soon, the pressure caused by the attack disappeared as the lake returned to its original appearance.
But the eyes of everyone at the moment were stuck on the figure who caused this unbelievable scene just now.
