Chapter 76 Crying in vain
"…What's going on?"
Looking at the strange scene that suddenly happened, Tori blurted out in great astonishment: "What happened?"
He turned up the magnification of the telescope to the maximum, staring at the scarlet blood cloud with wide eyes.
The blood cloud floating towards them was obviously different from the red cloud of the sunset.
The light of the setting sun in the sky shone through the blood-red clouds, casting a scarlet glow on him, but he did not feel any warmth from it.
On the contrary, the light made him feel extremely chilled, as if he had fallen into an icy cave in an instant
"What on earth is that?" Tori tried his best to open his eyes wide to see the source of the blood cloud, but the harder he tried to focus his gaze, the more painful it became, as if his eyes were being pricked by countless invisible needles.
"A huge source of heat has been discovered!"
Tori heard the voice from the tower, which was full of doubt: "Captain Tori, there seems to be someone in the blood cloud!"
When he heard this voice, the "blood cloud" was getting closer and closer, and had already come to the sky above their ship.
Tori's bloodshot eyes finally saw the blurry figure in the blood cloud, which seemed to be looking down at them from above.
That burning sense of crisis kept overflowing from his brain.
The sky ninjas behind Tori all looked up at the sky, raised their kunai guns, and put their fingers on the triggers.
"Captain Tori!" a sky ninja shouted, "Give the order! It's the enemy!"
Tori suddenly came to his senses and raised his arm to give the order.
However, before he could give the order, he saw the scarlet blood cloud falling from the sky with a sound of breaking wind.
The strong wind pressure instantly overturned them, and the sky ninjas on the deck suddenly lowered their heads, as if an invisible heavy object was pressing on their cervical vertebrae, and a chill crept up their sweat-soaked spines.
"Quick!" Tori's roar spread across the deck, "Find cover..."
Before he could finish his words, the tail sound was drowned out.
The scarlet blood cloud of doom swallowed their pupils in an instant, dragging them into a doomsday desperate situation like the world overturning.
Boom! !
The ship was shaking like a small boat on the sea, the iron chain of the anchor was stretched straight into a straight line, and the bow was groaning slightly under the wind pressure.
Those sky ninjas who subconsciously grasped the fixed objects beside them were fine, but those who didn't react in time were like ants densely packed on the table, and were instantly lifted off the ground by a blow that hit the table with all its strength.
Then, in confusion and panic, they were overturned by the impact of the wind pressure and hit the ground or the wall heavily!
Bang! Bang!
The shaking lasted for several seconds before it completely stopped, and the big waves splashing on the ship gradually slowed down.
"Ahem! Damn it!"
Tori stood up in a somewhat embarrassed manner, while hearing the groans of sky ninjas.
As if sensing something, he covered his painful abdomen and suddenly looked up into the distance.
The huge setting sun was about to set below the horizon, and the last ray of light shone through the blood mist onto the gradually approaching black shadow.
"Can you give me a moment?" A humble and gentle voice came from the blood mist, "I want to see your leader."
But in the next moment, Tori raised his arm with a gloomy expression, and hundreds of gun muzzles were aimed at, locking every move of the target in the field.
Every sky ninja who could still move raised his kunai gun, and the fingers on the trigger were as taut as stone but trembling slightly.
The kunai was just a little bit away from being fired from the barrel, and as long as someone made a sound to break the taut string, the kunai would be fired from the barrel with the explosion of the primer.
"Idiot." Tori narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at the figure, "Although I don't know who you are yet, I'm afraid you've made the wrong decision."
This was the first time he saw an enemy so stupid as to give up air superiority and fall into such a large open encirclement and become a target.
Even though the guy in front of him spoke in a gentle and friendly tone, he could only smell the thick, bloody malice.
"It seems that this is not possible."
Looking at the sky ninjas who were facing a formidable enemy, Kumokawa said with a distressed tone: "We are not enemies, why are you doing this?"
The blood mist gradually surged and rose, and the scarlet glow shot from behind him. His shadow was spread and projected on the ground, and the sky ninjas in front of him were all covered in it.
Although these sky ninjas were weak in Kumokawa's eyes, they were able to use flying ninja tools skillfully.
They were all very valuable people.
"I have always valued peace, and I don't really want to use violence."
Kumokawa took a step forward lightly, put his right hand on Tori's left shoulder, clenched his five fingers with a regretful expression: "But if you refuse, then there is nothing I can do."
As soon as the voice fell, the blood mist seemed to be inspired by him, and it tilted around him like a star ring, and even the trajectory of the red glow was distorted.
It rushed to the empty right hand on the left shoulder, quickly gathered and reorganized and condensed into shape!
First, the black handle with intricate patterns was forged by melting and condensing, and then the blade, blade body, blade edge, and blade arc were cast...
Seeing this strange scene, Tori's pupils shrank, and he shouted in a low voice: "Fire!"
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The noisy gunshots instantly filled everyone's ears.
The sky ninja's finger on the trigger pressed down, and the high-pressure gas in the gun barrel gushed out, driving countless kunai to burst out!
The explosion of kunai breaking through the sound barrier, the sound of chakra bursting sounded.
Hundreds of kunai were like a torrential rain, carrying huge kinetic energy, forming an unavoidable barrage that enveloped Kumokawa.
And Tori saw the pair of pupils in the blood mist through the red glow, and also saw the formed long sword.
The eyes were like a bottomless dark blue pool, leaving only a little scarlet color floating on the pool.
The blade of the long sword was thin and sharp, and the blade was like the pattern of eyes, as if it was made of flesh and blood. The blade was surrounded by scarlet blood mist.
There was a horizontal word engraved on it, which seemed to be the name of the sword.
But before Tori could see the words clearly, Kumokawa's right hand grasped the handle of the sword as he looked at the deadly rain curtain shooting in front of him.
"Haha!"
Kumokawa laughed in the dancing blood mist, as if he had got his favorite toy.
Then, the sword was swung down from his left shoulder, drawing a scarlet arc in front of him.
- Mimicry transformation:Demonic Blade.
In the reflection of the shrinking pupils of Tori and the group of sky ninjas, the flash of blood and scream with strange beauty flashed by.
In this fleeting moment, Tori saw the line of words clearly.
The name of the sword is...
"The soul is gone after crying in vain." Tori whispered softly.
At this moment, the kunai in front of them melted away like a rain curtain, and they continued to move forward, passing through the bodies of the sky ninjas, and all of them melted into the mist of the arc of light.
