Chereads / Kumo kunoichi / Chapter 9 - Clash between Kumo and Konoha's Root ANBUS

Chapter 9 - Clash between Kumo and Konoha's Root ANBUS

After Yoko returned to her apartment, she took a red storage scroll from her desk drawer. She opened the scroll, pulled out a kunai, and slightly cut her palm.

" DRIP, DRIP,"

A few drops of blood fell onto the open scroll. She quickly waved a couple hand signs, then smacked her palm on the open scroll.

"POOF,"

A white smoke appeared from thin air. After the white smoke vanished, a red katana appeared.

The katana looked very elegant. The katana's handle was red in color with golden lines; the katana doesn't have a guard, and the katana's sheath was red in color with golden lines too.

"Father, I am going to war. I understand that you warned me about the dangers of wielding Chi Hime, a cursed katana, but I have chosen to do so in order to feel your presence by my side."

[DING,] [HOST, THE SYSTEM DETECTED THAT THE HOST IS GOING TO JOIN THE WAR]

[DING], [LONG AND SHORT TERM QUESTS HAD BEEN ISSUED]

[HOST NEED TO MAKE A NAME OF HERSELF IN THIS WAR REWARDS 3000 NINJA COINS AND ONE TRY IN SPINNING THE GOLDEN ROULETTE OF TALENTS.]

[FIRST SHORT TERM QUEST GET PROMOTED INTO CHUNIN IN THIS CAMPAIGN REWARDS 1000 NINJA COINS, DRAGON FIST MANUAL, AND ONE TRY ON SPINNING THE GOLDEN ROULETTE OF TALENTS.]

[SECOND SHORT TERM QUEST CONQUER THE CURSE IN CHI HIME REWARD 500 NINJA COINS, AND GREAT BLACKSMITH GORO NYUDO MASAMUNE BLACKSMITHING NOTES MANUAL.]

When Yoko heard this, her eyes widened in shock. She remembered reading in her father's journal about Goro Nyudo Masamune, a blacksmith who was considered a legend even in her ancestry's homeland and whom her father wished he had met when he was alive.

Abruptly, Yoko heard the system's notification again.

[ THE THIRD SHORT TERM QUEST IS KILLING 1000 GENINS, OR 500 CHUNINS, OR 10 JOUNINS REWARDS 2000 NINJA COINS, BROKEN MOON SWORD ART MANUAL, AND TALENT DEVOURING FUNCTION.]

Yoko was confused and asked the system, "What is the talent devouring function?"

[THE TALENT DEVOURING FUNCTION IS A SYSTEM FUNCTION THAT DEVOUR A RANDOM TALENT OF A SHINOBI YOU KILLED.]

When Yoko heard this, she was stunned and thought to herself, laughing, "This system is absolutely dark, but at the same time it's very useful since I became a Saiyan and my talents evolved." It's quite challenging now to re-evolve my talents again, as it requires inventing 100 Ninjutsu for each category to just evolve my water style, lightning style, and storm style talents."

She then shrugged and prepared all her Ninja tools.

After she finished preparing, she left her apartment.

At the village gate

30 Kumo's Shinobi stood in front of the gate, waiting for the rest of the comrades.

When Yoko arrived, she discovered that Bee and 10 shinobi were still missing.

A blonde girl, three years older than Yoko, walked towards her and stood next to her. She then looked at Yoko and asked, "Hey Yoko, how do you feel about joining the war?"

Yoko looked at her and thought about her question, "Well, if I am honest with her, I am quite excited fighting against many strong shinobi, but if I tell her this, she will think that I am a battle freak; I need to act and deceive her."

Yoko turned to the blonde girl and said to her, "Well, we have no choice but to join the war in order to protect our home, Aya."

The blonde girl nodded her head in understanding, and then she said to Yoko, "To be honest, Yoko, I wish I would never experience war in my lifetime, but it seems that was just wishful thinking on my part."

Yoko giggled upon hearing this, just as Bee and Ten Shinobi arrived.

Four of those ten shinobi were Darui, Che, Yugito, and Mabui.

Yoko smiled when she saw her former classmate. She quickly ran towards Mabui and Yugito and hugged them, then gave a charming smile to Che and Darui. She then said to them, "How have you been, guys? I missed you a lot."

Darui, Che, Yugito, and Mabui all smiled when they heard this, and Mabui said to Yoko, "We miss you too, Yoko chan."

Suddenly, Darui, Che, Yugito, and Mabui heard Bee yell laudly, "Shut up, fool." Ya fool, a golden valuable time was wasted. Ya fool, we need to fly like bees to provide super backup to our elite comrade, oh yeah."

When Yugito heard Bee rape, her eye twitched. Then, a tanned-skinned Kumo Shinobi asked Bee, "Bee sama, what is the plan and which formation should we take while traveling?"

Bee nodded his head with a smile and started explaining, "Oh, yeah, that was a glorious question." Ya fool, we need a super formation suited for killer Bee Sama, oh ya."

Everyone sweated when they heard this, and Bee continued, "Listen up when I say we need to back up our elite comrade, Ya fool, so we need to get their like lightning, oh yeah, but to do that, Ya fools, we need to use tracking formation, fool Ya fool."

Everyone's eyes widened when they heard this, and Bee took an empty scroll and started drawing on it, "But instead of one line formation, we will use three line formation. This is a badass, oh ya."

Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback as Bee had tailored a formation based on the standard tracking formation taught in the academy.

Bee then continued, "Fool, ya fool, the formation will be divided into four fiery segments. Our stars close combat; Shinobi will be occupying the front portion of the formation, Fool Ya Fool. Behind our stars close combat shinobi, our superior, the mid-range shinobi, they will be the super backup of our stars close combat shinobi and the protectors of awesome shinobi who occupies the midsection of our great formation, oh yeah."

All the Shinobi present were impressed, and they kept listening to Bee's explanation of the formation.

"Our incredible sensors will occupy the mid-portion of the formation along with our magnificent Shiba clan members, oh-Yaaaa," Bee continued after realizing that everyone was listening.

When the Shiba clan Shinobi heard Bee praising them, they smiled. Bee then continued, "Our incredible sensors need to keep sensing of any cowardly Shinobi nearby who are trying to ambush us along with our magnificent Shiba clan Shinobi, using the eagle eye, jutsu with their incredible partners, oh Ya."

The eagles on Shiba clan shinobi shoulders flapped their wings and screeched in approval.

When Bee saw this, he smirked, and everyone present nodded their heads in understanding. Bee then continued, "Now listen up, fool." Ya fool, the rear is the most important part of the formation. Ya fool, our fabulous long-range Shinobi will occupy this position. Your job is to protect those in front of you with your long-range Ninjutsu or weapons on yaaa."

Everyone nodded to Bee, and after they took their positions, they left the village.

 After 10 minutes

The Kumo backup team was swiftly approaching the border of the Fire Country. The Shiba clan Shinobi sent their eagle partners flying in the air to scout the area around them.

Suddenly, Yoko's eyes widened when she sensed they were surrounded, and she yelled, "We are surrounded by 15 Shinobis; everyone be careful."

When all of Kumo's shinobi heard what Yoko had said, they halted, pulled out their kunais and swords, and formed a circular formation, ready to defend themselves.

"SWISH, SWISH, SWISH, SWISH, SWISH."

Suddenly, numerous kunais rained down upon Yoko and her comrades.

"CLANK, CLANK, CLANK, CLANK, CLANK."

All Kumo's shinobi deflected the kunais with their weapons, while Yoko used Chi Hime to deflect the kunais with ease.

Yoko closed her eyes for a moment, then frowned deeply. "They are cornering us because of their position." It seems my training in Turtle Island really bore a lot of fruit. I should try one of my new Storm release Ninjutsus, I invented."

Flashback

One Year ago

At the Raikage office

"What? You want to go to Turtle Island; how did you know about Turtle Island?" The third Raikage questioned Yoko loudly. His tone is full of shock.

Yoko smiled at the Third Raikage and answered him truthfully, "Bee nisan told me about the Island uncle Raikage.

The Third Raikage slapped his forehead and said, "That damn brat, he can't keep his mouth shut; he needs some ass kicking from me.

When Yoko heard this, she giggled. Then, the Third Raikage looked at her seriously and said, "Listen, Yoko, I don't mind if you want to go to Turtle Island, but you need to give me a good reason why you want to go to Turtle Island."

Yoko nodded seriously and said, "That fine uncle Raikage I trust you, but can we talk in private because what I'm going to say to you is considered my clan secrets?"

The Third Raikage was surprised but nodded his head, He waved his hand and all the hidden ANBUS left.

The Third Raikage then waved a few hand signs, and all of a sudden sealing characters appeared in the walls; they shone brightly before they disappeared again.

"Now you can speak freely; I activated the silencing seal; anyone outside the office will not be able to hear a word from us," the Third Raikage said to Yoko.

Yoko nodded and said, "I want to go to Turtle Island for two reasons." The first reason I want to create some Ninjutsu I have studied every book in the Shinobi library that discusses chakra and Ninjutsu theories. I have even read theories about chakra nature transformation. Now, it's time for me to develop my own Ninjutsus.

After being stunned for a moment, the Third Raikage smiled and thought to himself, "She is indeed a genius, just as I had suspected."

Yoko continued, "My primary reason for wanting to go to Turtle Island was to master the secret techniques of my clan."

The Third Raikage questioned, "Secret techniques?"

Yoko nodded and said, "Yes, it is called Haki; it is the ability to manifest your will or ambition in different ways." There are three forms of Haki. I awakened one of the three forms of Haki when I was born. My father, who was alive at the time, taught me how to control it so it wouldn't negatively affect me, but now I want to hone it. The large animals on Turtle Island are a great help to hone my Haki."

The Third Raikage nodded his head in understanding after hearing this, then he said, "Interesting. I will allow you to visit the Turtle Island and train there, but I am interested in Haki. Can you tell me about it?"

Yoko hesitated to respond to his question but ultimately decided to tell him, "Uncle Raikage, I will briefly explain each technique, but I cannot reveal how to train to awaken them; that is a clan secret."

The Third Raikage nodded his head and smiled kindly at Yoko; he then said, "I understand little Yoko."

Yoko smiled and started explaining, "There are three forms of Haki." These forms are observation haki, armament haki, and conqueror haki."

"The observation haki is the haki that I was born with. I was able to sense you back then when I healed you because of my observation haki." Yoko explained. to the Third Raikage.

The Third Raikage was surprised and asked, "So you are not sensor-type Shinobi."

Yoko shocked her head and explained, "No, I am a born sensor type Shinobi." When I first awakened my chakra, I was able to sense the chakra of other people and animals by using both my observation haki and my sensing ability. Combining the two greatly enhances my sensing capabilities."

The Third Raikage smiled widely when he heard this, and Yoko continued, "When in the future I hone my observation haki, I will be able to sense other people's emotions, how strong they are. I will even be able to predict attacks and sense other people's intent."

"Armament Haki is useful for attacking and defending you," Yoko continued, causing the Third Raikage to widen his eyes in shock. "If you are proficient enough with this haki, you can manifest your haki into invisible armor around specific parts of your body, weapons, and even your entire body."

The Third Raikage tapped his finger on the table and thought, "This haki has incredible potential."

Yoko then addressed the Third Raikage, saying, "The conqueror haki is a very special haki." Only 1 out of 1,000,000 is able to awaken this haki, according to what I read in the journal. When someone uses the conqueror haki, they force their will into others." 

Upon hearing this, the Third Raikage thought to himself, "This haki form must be unique if it only awakens to a few people."

The Third Raikage then addressed Yoko, saying, "Okay, Yoko, I will ask some of my ANBUS to escort you to Turtle Island. I will only allow you to stay on the island for six months."

Yoko smiled and nodded her head in agreement.

End of flashback

Yoko stabbed her katana on the ground through five hand signs and murmured, "Storm Release: Multi Piercing Senbons." 

Yoko's two hands glowed with chakra, and within a few moments, multiple blue glowing Senbons emerged from her hands.

Everyone was taken aback when they saw what Yoko had just done, except for Bee, who simply smiled upon seeing the jutsu.

"SWISH, SWISH, SWISH, SWISH."

"PU, PU, PU, PU, PU."

"AAAAHHH, AAAAHHH, AAAAAHHH, AAAAHHHH, AAAAHHHH."

"THUD, THUD, THUD, THUD, THUD."

When Bee noticed the ANBUS mask and robe, he said loudly, "Fool, you fool, these are Root ANBUS of Konoha." Let's show them how we sting, oh, YAAAAA."

Suddenly multiple fireballs rained down on Yoko and her comrades. 

When Bee saw the fireballs raining down at them, he yelled in urgency, "Dodge."

Yoko and the others quickly scattered, dodging the fireballs.

Abruptly, two ANBUS appeared before Yoko. One of them thrust their kunai at Yoko's heart. Yoko simply sidestepped, dodging the kunai.

The other ANBU was shocked when he saw this; it was as if Yoko had predicted the attack.

"SQUASH."

Yoko then swung her sword elegantly, beheading the ANBU.

The other Anbu flipped backward, putting some distance between him and Yoko, but Yoko didn't let the ANBU control the battle rhythm she charged with her lightning chakra-coated katana.

"BZ, BZ, BZ, BZ, BZ."

Dense lightning chakra flared with blue lightning sparks, coating Yoko's katana, and the ANBU dashed sideways this time to put some distance between them.

However, Yoko predicted the ANBU's move; with her haki, she swung her katana vertically in the air while murmuring, "Lightning Style: splitting moon flying slash."

"SWISH."

A lightning crescent moon-shaped flying slash flew toward the ANBU with incredible speed. The lightning slash was flaring with blue lightning sparks.

"SQUASH."

Yoko's flying slash cut the ANBU in half because it was too slow to dodge.

After killing the ANBU Yoko turned around to see Bee and the others taking care of all the remaining root ANBUS members.

Bee then smiled at Yoko and said, "Little Yoko showed these root ANBUS; she stings like a killer Bee oh YAAAAA."

The rest of Kumo Shinobi gave Yoko an approving smile and nodded their heads towards her in respect.

Then all of them continue traveling towards the border of the land of fire.
