CHAPTER 1/4 FOR TODAY
As Hozuki Yuji escaped, the white fog quickly dissipated, and the Marines all looked at T Bone.
"He should have escaped back to the capital of the Land of Sea. Let's catch up."
T Bone glanced ahead, and there was a trace of blood in the distance that he immediately noticed and whispered.
After that, he immediately led the group of soldiers and marched toward the capital of the Land of Sea.
After marching for about an hour, Kitano Ichiro and T Bone brought 3,000 Marines to the capital of the Land of Sea.
The Land of Sea has a developed fishing industry. Although it does not have its own shinobi village and has to constantly pay tribute to the Land of Water to seek refuge, it still has room to develop its national strength.
Standing outside the capital of the Land of Sea, Kitano Ichiro felt how insignificant his strength was. Although not as good as the Land of Water, it was still the capital of a country, the fortresses piled with rocks were mind-numbing, enough to make any attacker feel desperate.
"Intruders, who are you?!"
On the wall of the capital of the Land of Sea, Hozuki Yuji, from the Hozuki clan of the Kirigakure village, is standing there. Next to him is a middle-aged man wearing a ninja forehead protector from the Kirigakure village. He looks more sinister and powerful than Hozuki Yuji and it was this middle-aged man who spoke.
The man's name is Hozuki Kamigetsu he is the nephew of the second-generation Mizukage Hozuki Gengetsu and the third in power of the Kito clan. With his Jonin-rank strength and the secret ninjutsu of the Hozuki clan, his strength and influence cannot be underestimated in Kirigakure.
At this moment, Hozuki Kamigetsu's face was gloomy. Just like Hozuki Yuji's thoughts at the beginning, he never expected that someone would actually attack the Land of Sea while the Daimyo of the Land of Water took succeeded the throne. Didn't he care about the Land of Water at all?
But I dare not make any guesses. After receiving the news brought back by Hozuki Yuji, the entire capital immediately went on alert. After all, this was a war. With the number of attackers increasing, even if he was a Jonin, he would still die if he was not careful.
"Captain T Bone, that guy is probably a Jonin level shinobi."
Looking at the family crests of Hozuki Kamigetsu and Hozuki Yuji, Kitano Ichiro frowned and immediately speculated. Looking at the mountain-like capital of the Land of Sea in front of him, T Bone also frowned tightly, his zombie-like face looking extremely ugly.
They came out originally intending to fight quickly and use surprise tactics. They did not bring the siege artillery on the ship. Unexpectedly, they were delayed by Hozuki Yuji. In addition, if the other party was really a Jonin, then it will be a difficult fight.
"Hmph, it turns out there are no ninjas, Yuji, you were defeated by a samurai."
His eyes quickly scanned below, and no one answered him. Hozuki Kamigetsu was cold, and then he immediately confirmed it, and then spoke out to teach Hozuki Yuji a lesson.
These two people, the zombie-faced one is a strong taijutsu user, and the other samurai is a guy with the Kekkei Genkai of Steel release."
Hozuki Yuji looked ashamed when he was told this, and pointed downwards to explain.
'Steel Release Kekkei Genkai? Capture him alive."
After hearing Hozuki Yuji's report, Hozuki Kamigetsu's expression changed slightly. He looked at Kitano Ichiro below and immediately started making calculations in his mind.
Compared with other ninjas, people with Kekkei Genkai are rarer, and they are basically protected until they grow up. It is not easy to meet one today, so it is better to take him back and let the village study him. He had done this kind of thing before, but of course, the ninjas who were brought back for research had never appeared alive.
As for the others, just kill them.
Thinking of this, Hozuki Kamigetsu's face became cruel, and he quickly made his hand seals, and the chakra in his body quickly began to transform. "Water Release Water Dragon Bullet Technique."
A water dragon with sharp teeth in its mouth, with a silent roar, quickly formed in front of Hozuki Kamigetsu, and then roared towards Kitano Ichiro. He wanted to take care of Kitano Ichiro first, so as not to wait for this guy to run away if the situation is not right.
The water dragon was flowing with powerful impact water. It was as thick as three people hugging each other and nearly a hundred meters long. It was definitely beyond the power that ordinary chunin could unleash.
"Damn it, it's really a Jonin. The Daimyo of Land of Sea actually invited a jounin."
Kitano Ichiro's expression changed. He didn't expect that he had really guessed it. He had seen many people release the water dragon bullet technique, including many chunin. This water dragon was much larger than those released by those chunin. The water dragon rushed down from the city wall with a terrifying momentum, roaring towards Kitano Ichiro.
"Damn it."
Behind them were ordinary marines. Kitano Ichiro knew that he could never retreat too much. He secretly cursed and his legs and arms and turned them into steel blades reflecting the sunlight.
"Take This!"
With a low shout, Kitano Ichiro stepped directly into the ground with his right foot and looked seriously at the water dragon in front of him.
"It seems like it's really Steel Release."
Seeing Kitano Ichiro's changes, Hozuki Kamigetsu's eyes immediately lit up.
"Boom!"
The water dragon directly hit Kitano Ichiro. The powerful water flow instantly penetrated around Kitano Ichiro and engulfed him. The water flow continued to wash away Kitano Ichiro, but he was tired of dealing with it. The side effects of the Devil Fruit made him unable to function in the water at all, limiting his strength.
"Boom!"
Finally, all the water dragons hit the ground, and once again, a powerful force directly lifted Kitano Ichiro away, falling heavily to the ground, and the ground was sunk into a dent.
"Is He Dead!?"
Hozuki Yuji looked at Kitano Ichiro, widened his eyes, and murmured. Although he was already a chunin, this was the first time he had seen a jonin become serious during a mission.
"But even if he didn't die, he will be seriously injured. If he really dies, then... um."
Hozuki Kamigetsu looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction and said with some regret. However, as soon as he finished speaking, he saw Kitano Ichiro slowly getting up from the ground, and he immediately swallowed the rest of his words.
"How can it be?!"
The face of Hozuki Kamigetsu changed and became ugly. Although Water Dragon Bullet is only a B-level ninjutsu, it has bonuses in this moist Land of Sea, plus he is already familiar with water ninjutsu as he's using it all throughout his life and the secret technique of the Hozuki clan's Kekkei Genkai. He used a lot of his chakra to activate it and it was no less than an A-rank ninjutsu. Even then that guy can still stand up.
