Chapter 67 Death is just a long sleep
"Cough! Cough!"
Then the charred soil on the ground rose outward, and a figure slowly stood up from the ground.
The black carbonized skin attached to the body surface was sparsely scattered, exposing those disgusting, bloody muscles and blood vessels.
"Ahhh, It hurts, it hurts!"
The stinging and itching all over his body made Yuki Tsuki scream uncontrollably, and his bloody face was hideous and terrifying.
When he struggled to raise his head and look around, he could only see that only half of the nearly a thousand troops were left at this moment, and they still had the most basic ability to move.
Wails and screams echoed throughout the charred woods.
The rising dust enveloped them all, and the air they breathed was filled with ashes clogging their lungs. Yuki Tsuki couldn't help but feel dizzy and suffocated.
This is not a fair war.
From the very beginning, it was not the case!
But he never thought that he would be tricked so badly by a kid who is good at sword skills.
There were nearly a thousand of them. Even if he stood there and let him kill them, would he still be able to kill all them?
However, he did not expect that a dozen desperate old guys would appear and use terrifying chakra to turn them into turtles in a jar. They would kill them all even if they were blown up!
And that kid's weird ability to "control the wind" directly turned the flames of the explosion into a Hellfire.
This is simply like...a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye?
"Ahem! That damn kid!"
Blood seeped out from the surface of the cracked carbonized skin. Yuki Tsuki gritted his teeth and a flash of madness flashed in his eyes. Then he looked up at the looming building in the distance, and said: "Those who can move, follow me!"
"Our mission is not over yet. Those who can't move lie down here and wait for rescue!"
He is a member of the Bloodline Limit Ninja Clan, the Yuki Clan. There was no way he could just turn around and escape back to Kirigakure Village.
He must complete the mission, otherwise with such a heavy loss, he will definitely be greeted by death!
--------
boom! !
Countless water release ninjutsus hit the building, but they only caused ripples on the surface.
"...Is it the barrier again?"
Yuki Tsuki stood in front of the door on the first floor of the building, with a vigilance on his bloody face, and stretched out his hand to try to touch the barrier.
But in the next moment, he didn't feel any obstruction and just gently opened the door in front of him.
There was no murderous intention as imagined, only a dark and deserted corridor.
"Why are you not taking action?"
Yuki Tsuki's eyes flickered slightly, and all kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind.
The moment the door is pushed open, the opponent should use their strongest attack at all costs.
After thinking for a moment, a coldness flashed in his eyes. He turned around and ordered the Kirigakure ninja to continue attacking, while he walked into the building.
He went up to the third floor.
At the end is the conference room with the door open, with the only light source flickering inside.
It was the light of the candle placed on the table, illuminating the two figures at the end of the long table.
Behind the two of them were broken floor-to-ceiling windows and orange firelight reaching into the sky.
"..."
Yuki Tsuki looked at the two people across the long corridor, and could feel that the invisible barrier enveloped the entire building.
At the same time, he had already recognized the identities of the two people.
——Uzumaki Haruka, the leader of the Uzumaki clan, and Uzumaki Tetsuya, the daimyo of the country of Whirlpool.
As he expected, almost all the other Uzumaki ninjas died.
Otherwise, the people who appeared in front of them just now should be those Uzumaki ninjas, not those dying old guys.
There were only two of them left, two incompetent guys who pose no threat to THEM.
At the next moment, Yuki Tsuki formed a seal with one hand and took a step forward.
"Are you inviting me?"
Yuki Tsuki looked down at the two of them and said with a ferocious smile: "Your welcome was really warm and hospitable, you made me spend a lot of effort."
Faced with the threat in a joking tone by Yuki Tsuki, Uzumaki Tetsuya and Haruka were Unmoved, They just looked at him expressionlessly. The conference room become silent.
"..."
The smile on Yuki Tsuki's face slowly disappeared. He looked down at the two people in front of him and asked coldly: "If you are willing to cooperate, I might even let you live."
As soon as these words came out, the two of them were stunned. At last they broke the silence.
"Cooperate?"
Uzumaki Haruka grinned, revealing two sharp teeth, and said with a smile: "Are you going to cut our heads and take them with you back to Kirigakure or Are you going to use us as test subjects?"
He is right, there is only one ending for the Uzumaki clan, and that is "death".
Whether they were killed during this invasion or captured alive and escorted back to the village by them, the final outcome was death.
But...
"It's better than dying now, right?" Yuki Tsuki narrowed his eyes, his eyes flickering slightly, "Aren't you afraid of death?"
"Everyone is afraid of death." Uzumaki Haruka sneered, "But someone told me that death is not terrible, death is just a long sleep, our names will be engraved on the monument forever, and our souls will live even after death."
Yuki Tsuki's expression became a little ugly.
Ninjas are also human beings. As long as they are not forced into a desperate situation, if they feel that there is a way out and there is hope that they can survive safely, they will not risk their lives to resist.
But it was obvious that someone had taken a step ahead of them tonight, awakening these guys' sense of resistance and destroying all their plans, and now the whole thing has become difficult.
" There is no need to say anything to this bastard."
Uzumaki Tetsuya stared at Yuki Tsuki's pupils, he still stood firm and had absolute initiative, and said solemnly: " The blood and tears of the Uzumaki clan have been shed, and the revenge of the Uzumaki clan will come sooner or later!"
"What a pity, you no longer have the chance to witness it!"
Bang! Bang! Bang! !
The water outside seemed to be getting more violent, and the wind roared toward the building, hitting them like a wave, and they could feel the building shaking.
It was Kirigakure ninjas outside who were trying to break the barrier.
The next moment, Yuki Tsuki saw Uzumaki Haruka raise his right hand, with his index and middle fingers standing side by side in the shape of a blade.
But before Uzumaki Haruka could make the next move, Yuki Tsuki's figure disappeared from sight, and the blade in his hand slashed at him.
Bah!!
The blade was so powerful that it cut Haruka's neck, and then drew an arc of blood.
"Idiot!"
Looking at the head that was chopped off by his own sword, a flash of ridicule flashed in Yuki Tsuki's eyes.
But in the next second, he saw the expressionless head, and the chilling voice still came.
"Uzumaki Flame Barrier!"
In an instant, the ten fingers of the body without its head burst into flames.
Yuki Tsuki suddenly felt invisible fluctuations passing by his face, as if he was feeling his death!
Boom!!
The elegant candlelight turned into blazing flames like oil, and the entire building was completely engulfed by the black flames.
The three people facing the flames in the building and the Kirigakure ninjas who seemed safe outside the building were all swallowed up by the barrier of fire at this moment.
