Chapter 39 - Golden Eagle

With a flash of frost, Shigeru disappeared instantly.

Although Ice Jump is not like the Flying Thunder God Technique, in which as long as there is a mark, you can perform uninterrupted space jumps without a cooldown.

But Ice Jump also has an advantage that the Flying Thunder God does not have, that is, it does not require marking. As long as he is inside the ice field, Shigeru can appear anywhere.

Zhi!

Blood gushed from the arteries in the Jounin's neck.

As expected, the elite jounin of the Shimura clan was instantly killed by Shigeru as soon as he came face to face with him.

After all, those who come into contact with space-time ninjutsu for the first time and want to survive must have excellent reflexes like Senju Tobirama, or their strength that exceeds that of Shigeru.

Otherwise, once inside, it is almost impossible to escape the fate of being killed instantly.

"What what?"

Seeing that their elite jounin was instantly killed by a brat, the rest of the Shimura clan ninjas didn't know what to do.

However, just because they didn't react didn't mean that Shigeru was also stunned.

The one second cooldown is long or short depending on the enemy. For these pursuers, who are almost made up of chunin and genin, they can't do almost anything in a second.

In just five or six seconds, two of the three jounin among these ninjas were killed, and several chunin were stabbed to death by Shigeru.

The scene that happened in front of them made the chunin and genin who were originally full of anger and wanted to kill the people who sneaked into the clan suddenly became so scared that their hands trembled and they dared not move.

The remaining jounin was sweating profusely, swallowing saliva unconsciously, his eyes nervously and fearfully searching for Shigeru's figure.

One!

Two!

Three!

 

...

 

Every time the frost shone, at least one Shimura ninja died. If any ninja approached, Shigeru could kill two of them with one hit.

The sun had risen slightly at this time, but the slightly darker sunlight still made the entire forest seem covered by a dark sky.

The temperature before the sun rises is undoubtedly the lowest. Shigeru's elusive figure and the **** smell caused by the slaughter make this forest seem extremely terrifying.

"Ah..."

Under the murderous force of Shigeru, who attacked the Shimura clan ninjas like a god of death, the remaining jounin finally couldn't take it anymore.

He shouted with a broken expression, turned around and fled towards the clan.

"No!"

"Mom! I want to go home!"

...

The strongest Jonin escaped, and the remaining Chunin and Genin no longer had the strength to hold on.

They shouted humiliating words they didn't know, turned around and fled frantically.

During this period, someone fell from the tree trunk and didn't even have the courage to jump back onto the tree trunk. He just rolled and crawled and ran for his life into the distance, crying.

Shigeru stood on the tree trunk with an indifferent expression, watching the departure of these Shimura ninjas.

After about half a minute, the forest finally fell silent.

However, the corpses on the ground and the smell of blood in the air showed that they were not calm at the moment.

Zetō and the others arrived at Shigeru's side and everyone was silent.

In the battle just now, they clearly saw how powerful Shigeru was.

The elite jounin was killed in an instant, while the other ninjas were powerless to resist when they faced Shigeru, and could only die without saying a word.

With such strength, I fear that only top elite jounin like Zenitsu can match Shigeru.

Thinking of this, Zetō and Mizuki were a little discouraged.

Although they are all the same age, why is there such a big gap between them?

Shigeru didn't know what Zetō and Mizuki were thinking.

After the pursuers retreated, he formed seals with his hands and used the summoning jutsu.

A burst of white smoke floated up and a golden eagle appeared in front of Shigeru.

Shigeru took out the scroll he had prepared, wrote the message that the mission was completed, and then handed it to the golden eagle.

The golden eagle chirped, picked up the scroll, spread its wings, and flew towards the direction of the Hagoromo clan.

Watching the golden eagle fly away, Shigeru turned to look at his three companions. "Okay, our mission has initially been completed. Now let's find a place to wait for news. As long as there is news that the Sarutobi and Shimura clans have withdrawn their troops, we can withdraw."

The three of them nodded and then, under the leadership of Shigeru, they left the place and went to find a place to rest.

...

east of the land of the Hagoromo Clan.

The war between the four tribes still continues.

Last night, Ryokawa and Zenitsu personally led a team of elites to attack the Sarutobi clan's territory.

Unfortunately, they were discovered ahead of time, and Sarutobi Kaoto and Shimura Nesuke teamed up to force them back.

This morning, the Sarutobi clan once again implemented the old tactics of last month, constantly harassing the Hagoromo clan and reducing the Hagoromo clan's lower-level combat power.

But after a huge battle, the Hagoromo clan faced the coalition forces of the three clans and suffered even greater casualties.

Now they were in a battle again.

Phew!

On a huge rock in the back, Ryokawa were watching the battle, and suddenly a bird song came from the sky.

Ryokawa looked up and saw that the golden eagle had landed in front of him.

He reached out and took the scroll from the golden eagle's mouth. The golden eagle released white smoke and returned to its land.

When Ryokawa unfolded the scroll, he couldn't help but smile and at the same time felt relieved.

"How is everything?" The second elder, Kazuo, looked at the clan leader impatiently.

The golden eagle is the personal summoning beast of the Hagoromo clan, and only the Hagoromo clan can use it.

The only people from the Hagoromo clan outside now are Shigeru, his son, and three other people on a mission. How could he not be anxious?

After all, if this mission cannot be completed, the Hagoromo clan will probably be doomed.

Ryokawa let out a long sigh and handed the scroll to the second elder. "The plan was successful, Shigeru and the others destroyed all the supplies of the Sarutobi and Shimura clans, and also caused many casualties to the two clans. It won't be long before May Sarutobi Kaoto and Shimura Nesuke receive this news."

The second elder looked at the scroll in his hand and couldn't help but laugh: "It's great! It's great!"

Zenitsu next to him also raised the corner of his mouth. "This war is finally over."

Then he asked with concern "How is the young patriarch?"

Ryokawa was silent for a moment and then shook his head with some pain. "Shigeru is fine, but it's a pity that Toyama died."

The three of them bowed their heads slightly to express their respect for Hagoromo Toyama, and then the second elder said "Toyama is the hero of the Hagoromo clan!"

Ryokawa nodded, his eyes looking at the battlefield in the distance "we must be alert, we may have a difficult battle next after Sarutobi Kaoto and Shimura Nesuke know the news about their clans, one of their bosses may fight us as last act of war, after this battle is over and they calm down, they can arrange evacuation, so everyone must prepare in advance. This is the last battle before victory!
