Chapter 77 - Rasengan

After a confrontation, the two temporarily separated.

Looking at the young man in front of him, a trace of cold sweat broke out on the gray-haired man's temples.

'This boy is really powerful.'

"Fūton: Sword of the Wind God!"

Shigeru formed a seal with his left hand, and a sharp wind-attribute chakra immediately flowed into the short sword.

Yūro, on the opposite side, did not speak, but silently formed a seal and blue water suddenly appeared on the blade of the broadsword.

The two seemed to have a tacit understanding.

A breeze blew through the air.

Shigeru and Yūro leaped forward at the same time, and the confrontation between wind and water began directly.

On the battlefield, Shigeru and Yūro's figures kept flashing, and their swords separated just by touching them. Those who were weak couldn't even clearly see the process of their fight.

"After this little confrontation, it seems that the opponent's strength and mine should be evenly matched, if we don't use some means, it seems that we can't decide the winner in a short time!"

Shigeru looked at the opponent cautiously and began to fight with him, while analyzing the gap in strength between the two sides in his mind.

After discovering that he could not win quickly by relying on conventional means, Shigeru silently condensed ice-attribute chakra in his body.

The two fought again, and a wisp of frost flowed directly from the soles of Shigeru's feet to the ground, and a layer of frost instantly formed on the ground within ten meters.

The next moment, there was a flash of frost and Shigeru immediately disappeared.

"Rasengan!"

!!

Before Yūro could react, he felt a sharp pain in his back.

Along with that, a sound of bones crunching was heard.

It turned out that at some point, Shigeru appeared directly behind Yūro and broke his spine with a Rasengan.

At the same time, the powerful chakra turbulence from the Rasengan instantly twisted Yūro's back until it was twisted and deformed.

!!

Shigeru held the powerful Rasengan in his hand and pressed it forward and downward. The enormous force directly pressed Yūro into the ground. A large pit instantly appeared on the ground and dust suddenly rose up.

This all sounds complicated, but it's actually done in a snap.

From the moment Shigeru activated Ice Realm, to the moment he used Ice Jump to appear behind Yūro, and used the Rasengan to push the opponent to the ground, not a second passed in between.

Standing in the distance, Tohō only saw Shigeru's figure flash, and then the gray-haired elite jounin was pushed to the ground.

I didn't know if he was alive or dead.

This shows how amazing Shigeru's speed is.

"The young patriarch is getting stronger and stronger." Tohō stood on the battlefield and showed a smile.

Shigeru stood at the well and saw that the life of the man named Yūro had completely expired, so he clapped his hands and stood up "The Rasengan is still as powerful as ever."

After more than a year, his strength has not stopped growing.

During this year, in addition to carrying out missions, he dedicated all his time to training.

Among all his arsenal, Shigeru's current trump card, the Ice Realm, has been practiced to an extraordinary level.

If it were more than a year ago, if he wanted to expand his ice kingdom, not only did he have to form seals, but he could only expand an area of ​​a fixed size.

But now, his ice realm can be activated instantly without any seal, and the expanded area can also be controlled at will.

For example, right now, if it were before, he could only spend a fifth of his chakra to expand an ice realm that covered an area of ​​500 meters.

With such a large range, it was simply overkill to use it to deal with this elite jounin named Yūro.

But now, after a year of training, he has been able to use chakra accurately. Depending on the combat situation, he can expand a moderately sized ice field and kill the opponent directly with minimal consumption.

From the other side.

Since the Yuhi Clan Patriarch had already activated the great combination of Genjutsus on the Tsuruta Clan Patriarch before, the Tsuruta Clan Patriarch had become extremely vigilant at this moment, the battle between the two directly ended in a stalemate.

However, when Patriarch Tsuruta discovered that Yūro had been killed by the unknown boy, his eyes immediately widened "Nani!"

"What an opportunity!"

Although Patriarch Yuhi was also surprised by the strength of the young Patriarch of the Hagoromo clan, he paid more attention to the Patriarch of the Tsuruta clan.

When he saw that Patriarch Tsuruta was distracted, he immediately cast two illusions in succession.

"Demonic Illusion: Death Bound by the Tree!"

The patriarch of the Tsuruta clan seemed to be bound by something and his entire body was unable to move.

Seeing this, Patriarch Tsuruta quickly disrupted the flow of chakra in his body to break the Genjutsu.

However, just when he was able to act.

"Yuhi-Ryu: Phantom Sword of the Setting Sun!"

The twilight light of the sword instantly flashed, making the Tsuruta clan chief dizzy and his entire body became unstable.

!!

The sword cut and blood flowed out.

The patriarch of the Tsuruta clan was careless and was directly killed by the patriarch of the Yuhi clan.

~

The patriarch of the Tsuruta clan loosened his grip and the sword fell to the ground.

"You… oh…" She covered her neck with her hands, her eyes bulging outward and her face filled with fierce looks.

It's a pity that no matter how terrifying his expression is, he can't pose much of a threat to the Yuhi Clan Patriarch.

After a few seconds, Patriarch Tsuruta's legs weakened and he knelt on the ground. A large pool of blood flowed to the ground from the gaps between his hands.

"Patriarch!!!"

A shout rang out from the battlefield, and immediately afterward, an elite member of the Tsuruta clan forced his opponent away and retreated.

After hearing the voice of the clan leader, the ninjas of the Tsuruta clan unconsciously looked in the direction of their clan leader.

"This can't happen!"

"It's a lie!"

When these ninjas of the Tsuruta clan discovered that the patriarch of their clan had died, they immediately panicked, not knowing what to do.

The Yuhi and Hagoromo ninjas on the opposing side took the opportunity to counterattack. Suddenly, many Tsuruta ninjas were caught off guard and killed.

"Retreat! Retreat!"

Seeing this situation, the ninja Tsuruta who was the first to discover the death of the clan patriarch quickly ordered a retreat.

The other Tsuruta ninja didn't know what to do next, so when they heard the elite jounin's order, they subconsciously turned around and ran away.

"Catch them up and kill them!" Seeing this, the Yuhi Clan Patriarch gave an order and led his clan members to pursue the defeated Tsuruta Clan.

In an instant, the battlefield was filled with Tsuruta ninjas fleeing in shame and Yuhi ninjas chasing them.

However, the Hagoromo ninjas among them did not rashly pursue them, but gradually approached and walked towards Shigeru's side.

Tohō, who was originally waiting on the battlefield, also came over at this moment, "Young Patriarch, what should we do now?"
