The forest of the land of tea.

"go to hell!"

Muuri Jinpachi held the Explosive Sword Splash in his hand. Powerful chakra was condensed in the blade. In an instant, a large number of detonating symbols appeared on the surface of the blade and fell on a Kirigakure ninja.

With a violent explosion, the Kirigakure ninja died in an unrecognizable state, and part of the blown flesh and blood was still flying in the air.

Seeing the beauty of the sky covered in beautiful bright red, Muuri Jinpachi showed an intoxicating smile on his face:

"No matter how many times you swing the explosive knife, the thrill of the explosion is so fascinating that you can't stop."

Intoxicated by the pleasure of torturing human bodies, Muuri Jinpachi put the explosive sword on his shoulder and swept it around.

There are also several Kirigakure ninjas hanging between the trees by needles and threads that are difficult to see with the naked eye, suspended in mid-air, as if they were performing a puppet drama.

The body is twitching, there is no death, the cry cannot be transmitted, only a hesitant and extremely painful moan can be heard from the mouth.

Blood slowly fell to the ground along his fingers, and he watched helplessly as he stepped into the abyss of death.

Kurihara Kushimaru, who was holding a long knife and a sewing needle and wearing a mask, raised his head slightly, and like an artist admiring his own masterpiece, he made a sharp and harsh laugh:

"Is it so painful that you want to die? Don't worry, you won't die before you have appreciated all my masterpieces. I will use your hands and feet to experience the most extreme beauty in the world."

As he spoke, he flicked the thread connecting the long knife and needle, and blood spattered out.

The only thing that remains unchanged is that the Kirigakure ninja, who was hung between the trees like a doll by needle and thread, did not die directly, but suffered from the fear of slow death.

"Your methods are still as slow as ever. If this continues, that woman will go far away."

Muuri Jinpachi came over and said.

"Don't preach to me, I'm enjoying the pleasure of killing."

Compared to Muuri Jinpachi who blasts his enemies to ashes in an instant, making his enemies experience the fear of death in the slow death and make various expressions of begging for mercy and pain is what Kurumi Kushimaru considers to be art.

Although the process is relatively cumbersome, it is worth wasting a little time as long as you listen to such moving 'music'.

"Okay, whatever."

Although the dead were all ninjas from the same village, these people were obviously not from the same group as them.

Therefore, even if it was one of their own, the two of them showed no mercy and instead killed him with cruel means.

After about ten minutes, after enjoying the pleasure of killing, Kuriragushimaru asked his subordinates to clean up the battlefield and collect the bodies.

"I have already made it clear that they are fleeing towards the Kingdom of Ghosts."

Muuri Jinpachi said.

"Ghost Country? What are they doing there?"

"I don't know. I seemed to have stayed in Konoha for a while."

"Did you seek treatment from Tsunade, one of the three ninjas? But even the top medical ninja in the medical field cannot cure that kind of injury."

Kurumi Kushimaru calmly analyzed it.

"You'll know when you go there. That place is a neutral country. Do you need to restrain your actions?"

Muuri Jinpachi asked with a grin.

"What do you think?"

Then, the two of them showed cruel smiles at the same time.

They are a 'ruthless duo', and it is in line with their style to kill without mercy.

Just kill everyone who dares to come and block the road.

"Please stop!"

The western sea port of the Kingdom of Ghosts.

A ninja wearing a black trench coat with asters embroidered on the back stopped an unidentified ship approaching.

The vessel is small in size and is not a registered vessel.

Ships with unknown origins like this are no longer able to log in to the western sea ports of the Kingdom of Ghosts.

There are six people guarding here, with weapons such as ninja swords or short swords placed on their backs and waists.

"I am Kuraki Jōnin of Kirigakure. I have a secret mission when I come to the Kingdom of Demons this time. Please be kind to me."

On the ship, the leader of the Kirigakure female jounin announced her identity, then took out a warrant letter and handed it over.

Although I was surprised that the current censorship in the Oni Country is strict and the system is not as loose and open as the rumors, but compared to Kirigakure at this time, it is still far inferior.

The guard took the warrant and walked to a room that looked like a guard room. He communicated with the staff inside and seemed to be verifying the authenticity of the warrant.

Soon after, he came out with the warrant book, put it in the hands of Kuraki Jonin, and said:

"There is no problem with the warrant. Our country has recently changed some systems. I'm sorry if it causes you any inconvenience. You can go in."

"It doesn't matter, this is what it should be."

Kuraki Jonin asked several other Kirigakure ninjas to come down. One of them was carrying a pale young woman on his back. It looked like he was seriously injured.

Seeing this, the guards quickly prepared a comfortable carriage for this group of Kirigakure ninjas, which was driven by their own people. They put the wounded in the carriage and headed towards the capital, Ziyuan City.

Because the compartment of the carriage is not large, only one person is left in the carriage to take care of the wounded, and the other people are doing protection work in the front and rear of the carriage.

Behind the carriage, a woman and a man started running closely.

"It's really strange that the entry inspection of neutral countries has become so strict."

"This has nothing to do with us. Our mission is only to protect the safety of Ringo Jonin and cure her disease."

Kuraki Jonin replied.

The male jounin nodded, then closed his eyes, feeling something, and opened them after a moment, showing a cautious expression.

"Zhongji, what's wrong?"

Kuraki Jonin asked.

"There are thirteen people who followed here secretly. They are all very capable."

Nakayoshi Jounin responded honestly.

"Your sensory ninjutsu is still as sharp as ever. I only sensed eleven people."

"Of course, you are not a sensing ninja. Two of them should have special stealth abilities. If you are not a sensing ninja, it would be really difficult to sense them."

As one of the few outstanding sentient ninjas in Kirigakure Village, Nakayoshi Jounin knew exactly how many "monitoring" personnel were following secretly and where they were.

"It's just that I didn't expect that the internal fighting in the village would evolve to this point. What the third generation did was really too much. Even the Jonin who has made many achievements for the village can be framed maliciously. If someone hadn't sent me a message

, I really thought Ringo Jonin had some incurable disease and was lying in the hospital."

An angry look appeared on the honest face of Nakayoshi Jounin.

"All of this was caused by the conspiracy of the Third Generation. Now the Seven Ninja Swordsmen are divided into three factions, supporting the Third Generation, opposing the Third Generation, and two-sided neutrality. But judging from the current situation, those neutral factions can be divided into three factions at any time.

They may fall to the third generation and become their minions."

After all, he is the legitimate Mizukage of their Kirigakure Village. The prestige he has accumulated over the years cannot be leveraged by just anyone.

"We must attract more ninjas to our side. Especially the ninjas who were deceived by the third generation. They were simply used and did not know the truth of the matter."

Nakayoshi Jounin looked solemn.

Even though I know that it is very difficult to do and you may die at any time.

But if this continues, Kirigakure Village will sooner or later enter the abyss of eternal destruction, consuming its vitality in endless internal fighting and becoming the bottom of the five great ninja villages.

At that time, the situation will become dangerous.

"Let's talk about it then. If Ringo's injuries can be cured, it will be a huge help to us. We have too few powerful ninjas who can compete with the third generation. The remaining Ninja Seven

Most of the people are colluding with the third generation and targeting their colleagues wantonly. Especially the ruthless duo and that bastard from Xiguashan!"

Speaking of this, Kuraki Jounin, who has outstanding medical abilities, was also very angry about this.

The Seven Ninja Swordsmen who originally protected Kirigakure, now continue to kill their own people for their own selfish desires and ambitions, and voluntarily degenerate and indulge in the pleasure of killing.

As a member of Kirigakure, I feel really ashamed of these guys.

Among them, the ruthless duo consisting of Kushimaru Kuri and Jinpachi Muuri, as well as the wielder of the broadsword and Samehada, the Suikoyama Fugu Oni, are the most notorious.

He continued to kill his companions on unfounded charges, creating a bloody atmosphere within Kirigakure and making many Kirigakure ninjas fear him.

The Kirigakure envoy came to visit, and the news quickly reached Shiraishi's ears.

To be honest, this news somewhat surprised Shiraishi.

Soon, he learned the reason why the Kirigakure ninja came here.

They hope that Aster Flower Pharmaceutical Company can provide active body medicine with better efficacy that is not sold on the market to one of their injured Kirigakure patients.

"Who are the wounded to be treated?"
To be continued...
