Suzuka launched a fatal attack, slicing Kuriyama Shinzo's throat.
Ninjas have various ways to kill. Some ordinary people believe that ninjas are powerful because of their jutsu. The higher the level and the stronger the power of the jutsu, the more powerful the ninja is.
Although this is one criterion, it is not absolute.
No matter what level of ninja, they are essentially just human beings with flesh and blood. When vital parts of the body are attacked, even if you have great power, you will eventually die.
"Awesome!"
One of the battles closest to Minato and the Cloud Ninja Chunin. When he saw Suzuka successfully land a fatal blow on Shinzo Kuriyama, he was moved after completely crushing the Cloud Ninja.
After all, with Shinzo Kuriyama dead, their mission was considered complete.
However, when Minato glanced over, he saw that Suzuka had turned her back on Shinzo Kuriyama, and her eyes were glancing towards him, obviously wanting to help him.
But behind her, Kuriyama Shinzo, whose throat had been cut and blood was gushing out, raised a cold smile.
He couldn't speak because his throat was cut, but his ferocious expression told Minato his purpose at that moment.
Thinking that Kuriyama Shinzo was dead, Suzuka was completely unprepared.
Kuriyama Shinzo raised his sword. At this moment, the clouds blocked the moonlight, making the already dim forest even colder.
"Instant Flash!"
Minato immediately abandoned his opponent and rushed towards Suzuka.
Clang!
A cold light flashed, and Suzuka seemed to have noticed the abnormality behind her, but at this time, she didn't have the time to react.
"Puff."
At the critical moment, Minato rushed over. Though his body was small, his strength was substantial. He could only wrap his arms around Suzuka's waist and push her away.
But Kuriyama Shinzo was a special jonin, and his sword was too fast. Minato took a hard hit on his left arm!
Rustle!
Suzuka rubbed her feet on the ground, paused, and the hot red blood splashed on her fair cheek.
At that moment, she had no time to care about these things. She looked at Minato in front of her. She was originally expressionless, but there was finally a flash of emotion in her black pupils: "Boy, are you okay?"
Tick-tock.
Minato covered his left arm, but the blood still dripped on the ground along his fingertips.
"It's okay, fortunately it's just a cut on the arm."
Enduring the pain, Minato showed a slightly reluctant smile to Suzuka, but Suzuka could see that the flesh and skin cut by Kuriyama Shinzo's sword faintly exposed the bone.
But the situation didn't allow them to be stunned. Suzuka turned around to see Kuriyama Shinzo standing there. His face looked different, blood gushing from his neck, staining his clothes.
Suzuka's pupils shrank involuntarily, and she exclaimed, "He's not dead?"
She hadn't turned back to observe Kuriyama Shinzo before because she judged from experience that if the throat was cut, the amount of bleeding would make it impossible for him to fight back even at the moment of death.
But Kuriyama Shinzo stood there, and though his clothes were stained with blood, he seemed unharmed.
What was going on?
Minato couldn't understand it either. At the same time, he held the kunai in his right hand, staring at the previous Kumo Chunin.
The latter noticed the change in the battle situation. The boy who had forced him into a miserable state before had lost an arm, which made him extremely happy.
Looking at the expression on his face, there was no doubt that he wanted to take Minato's life.
"I'll hold that guy back. Kuriyama Shinzo must be killed."
Minato said to Suzuka. The latter had a trace of hesitation in her eyes and questioned, "Boy, you lost one hand, do you still want to deal with a Chunin?"
The limbs of the body are also important factors in the strength of a ninja.
The legs represent the power of movement, and the hands are used to make seals. Losing any part causes a huge loss of strength.
"Senior, this is not like the style of your Anbu."
Minato smiled. In his impression, the Anbu were lifeless ninjas who just carried out their missions.
Suzuka's words were completely inconsistent with her style as an Anbu witch.
The latter was stunned, seeing the resolute look in Minato's eyes.
"Boy, some things are not your turn to say."
She stepped forward, not blaming Minato. Instead, she chuckled, then became serious again, saying, "Be careful, don't be stubborn."
Minato nodded.
Swish!
The next moment, his speed exploded again, turning into a yellow light, rushing towards the Cloud Ninja Chunin.
"What an arrogant boy!"
Minato's move naturally made the Kumo Ninja Chunin furious. A child who had just had his arm crippled wanted to be his opponent.
However, he had already experienced Minato's speed and intended to retreat while forming hand seals.
He wanted to distance himself from Minato first, then directly attack with jutsu.
However, Minato had already planned for this. When he rushed out, he had locked onto the Chunin's hands.
Swish!
Minato threw the kunai in his hand without hesitation, blocking the Chunin's hand seal.
The latter never thought Minato had such strong predictive ability and combat experience. When he reacted, Minato had already approached him, holding a kunai in his hand again and stabbing head-on.
Though surprised, he was not afraid of Minato, who only had one arm left, and immediately held the kunai to fight.
Swish!
Just when the two were about to collide, Minato suddenly stopped and retreated.
The Chunin's strength was already greater than Minato's, not to mention he now had a damaged arm. Winning was impossible. For now, he could only deal with him.
On the other side, Suzuka's pretty face was cold, rushing towards Kuriyama Shinzo. If Minato hadn't blocked the sword for her, she would have been the one to die.
Though she still couldn't understand the situation, she didn't believe anyone in the world couldn't be killed.
Kuriyama Shinzo, who had his throat cut and couldn't speak, sneered, not affected by the previous fatal attack. He started a confrontation with Suzuka again!
