Chapter 57 - Is that a Jonin?

"Shadow Clone? Not just a regular clone?"

"Damn!"

As soon as Yasuke used the Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu, Gozu Suigetsu's mood plummeted to rock bottom!

Being a Kirigakure Jōnin, especially during the Third Ninja War, Gozu Suigetsu understood the effects of Shadow Clone Jutsu very well. So, when Yasuke's clones appeared one by one, Gozu Suigetsu's first thought was that the Konoha Anbu in front of him intended to annihilate his squad.

Otherwise, why would the Anbu waste chakra using Shadow Clones in battle?

And Gozu Suigetsu's thinking was spot on! It was precisely to destroy the Kirigakure squad in front of him that Yasuke used the Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu despite the strain of fighting a Jōnin.

When Yasuke found out that the ninja squad in front of him was from Kirigakure, and knowing that Konoha was at odds with Kirigakure, he had some bad thoughts.

Plus, Yasuke was on a breakout mission. If he let even one Kirigakure ninja escape, the breakout would become much harder. So, facing Gozu Suigetsu head-on, Yasuke used up chakra to create six Shadow Clones, instantly surrounding all the Kirigakure ninjas.

When Gozu Suigetsu realized the situation was dire, he gripped his sword, surged chakra in his feet, and rushed to save his subordinates. Watching Gozu Suigetsu rush, a cold smile appeared on Yasuke's face!

"Distracted while fighting me?"

"Even if you are a Jōnin, who can you save?"

With a cold smile, Yasuke hid in the dense forest under the cover of his Shadow Clones.

As Yasuke just concealed himself, Gozu Suigetsu faced big trouble!

"Shadow Clone Jutsu!"

"Whoosh!"

Just as Gozu Suigetsu, holding his sword, reached the first of Yasuke's Shadow Clones, that clone suddenly formed seals and used up all its chakra to perform a Shadow Clone Jutsu!

A shadow emerged from the ground, turning into a beam of light, and pierced into a Kirigakure Genin.

Facing another Shadow Clone of Yasuke, the Kirigakure Genin could barely defend himself. Now attacked by a shadow, how could he resist?

So, hidden in the forest, Yasuke felt a sharp pain in his chest as a shadow pierced through the Kirigakure Genin, making him fall into a pool of blood. Clearly, the Shadow Clone that used the Shadow Clone Jutsu was destroyed by Gozu Suigetsu, but Gozu Suigetsu still couldn't save his subordinate's life.

The second Kirigakure Genin was killed by Yasuke!

"Damn Konoha Anbu, you cost me two subordinates!"

"Die!"

"Water Release: Wild Water Wave!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Seeing the worsening situation, Gozu Suigetsu couldn't sit and wait for Yasuke's Shadow Clones to kill all his subordinates.

So, when the second Kirigakure Genin died, Gozu Suigetsu quickly formed seals, completing a C-rank Water Release jutsu!

"Whoosh!"

Seals finished, Gozu Suigetsu's chakra perfectly changed nature, allowing him to perform Water Release without a water source, condensing moisture from the air to create the jutsu!

A wave of water rushed towards Yasuke's Shadow Clones.

Seeing this, Gozu Suigetsu's subordinates instinctively prepared to jump to avoid being hit by his Water Release.

But in the next second, Gozu Suigetsu and the Kirigakure ninjas saw a horrifying scene!

Suddenly, as the water wave controlled by Gozu Suigetsu surged, the Kirigakure ninjas who tried to jump were suddenly restrained by shadows from Yasuke's Shadow Clones, making it impossible for them to dodge Gozu Suigetsu's Water Release!

Gozu Suigetsu was stunned!

Especially when he saw all his subordinates threatened by his own jutsu, Gozu Suigetsu bit his lip hard, tasting blood, and cursed:

"Damn, a Nara Clan member from Konoha?"

"Shadow Mimicry Technique is truly powerful!"

"Poof!"

Speaking, Gozu Suigetsu forcibly withdrew his Water Release jutsu, suffering backlash and spitting blood.

But when Gozu Suigetsu thought he had a chance to save his subordinates, Yasuke didn't give him any opportunity. As his Shadow Clones used the Shadow Mimicry Technique to restrain all but Gozu Suigetsu, Yasuke quickly changed seals and whispered:

"Shadow Strangulation Technique!"

"Crack!"

"Crack!"

Using the Shadow Strangulation Technique, the shadows holding the Kirigakure ninjas climbed up their bodies.

As the shadows reached their necks, the sound of breaking bones echoed, and under Yasuke's Shadow Strangulation Technique, all the Kirigakure ninjas, except Gozu Suigetsu, perished!

As for Gozu Suigetsu?

He felt like crying!

The backlash from the jutsu wasn't simple!

To save his subordinates, Gozu Suigetsu ignored the backlash, and now seeing them all dead at Yasuke's hands, how could he feel good?

Seeing Yasuke's slender figure appear again, Gozu Suigetsu took a deep breath and, for the first time, took the Anbu kid seriously. But just as he was about to say something harsh, Yasuke's voice came first!

"Kirigakure ninja, haven't you noticed my shadow disappeared?"

"What?"

Gozu Suigetsu exclaimed!

But Yasuke didn't give him more time. With a cold gaze, he ordered:

"Dakota! Lana!"

"Do I need to remind you in such a good opportunity?"

"Yes, Captain!"

Hiding in the forest, watching Yasuke's performance, both Dakota and Lana felt Yasuke's power was terrifying!

A Kirigakure Jōnin, two Chūnin, three Genin!

Six Kirigakure ninjas had no chance to fight back against Yasuke. Lana almost believed Yasuke was a demon reincarnated; otherwise, how could he be so strong at such a young age?

When Yasuke ordered to kill Gozu Suigetsu, and his shadow disappeared, making it impossible for Gozu Suigetsu to move, Lana and Dakota appeared, kunai in hand, and pierced Gozu Suigetsu's throat and heart, making them feel like they were in a dream!

When Gozu Suigetsu's breath vanished, Lana and Dakota still had a lingering thought!

Was this guy really a Kirigakure Jōnin?

Since when were Kirigakure Jōnin so easy to kill?
