"Is there anyone alive?"
Giyu asked seemingly calmly in front of a cupboard in the living room.
Inside the cupboard, the owner and his son who ran the restaurant lay inside with miserable faces, with several bloody holes on their thighs.
As for the fatal injury, it was on the forehead -
Giyu could see clearly with his transparent eyes: they were two sharp fingertip bones, like bullets fired from guns, which stayed deep in the brains of the father and son, causing them to instantly In death, the expression will always remain that of struggling and screaming before death.
This is the first time Giyu has seen such an evil weapon in this world.
Kyuubi, who was clasping its hands above his head, opened its eyes and replied with some annoyance: "No more. Only the five people in our room."
Using Kyojuro's clone, whether it was Mind's Eye of the Kagura or Adamantine Sealing Chains, Kyuubi is now able to use them all.
Although the coverage is limited due to lack of proficiency, it is still no problem to envelope a hot spring hotel with chakra perception. The malicious perception can also be extended to further places through Mind's Eye of the Kagura. However, if you want to determine whether anyone is alive, the first perception ability is more accurate.
Kyuubi said, "It's really annoying to bother me at this time."
The reason why Kyuubi was not happy was naturally not because a human had died, but because it knew that the evening holiday would end early.
"Are all five of them ninjas?"
Giyu knelt down on one knee and reached out to help the somewhat clever father and son close their eyes, but they still looked uneasy, as if they had something unfinished to say.
"They are not ordinary ninjas. Judging from the amount of chakra, these five people are comparable to the several Anbu in Konoha Village who often go to check Naruto Uzumaki's seal. There is also a person's chakra that makes me feel uncomfortable."
"...Five Jonin?"
Giyu closed the cupboard door, his face as heavy as iron.
He was able to remain calm even when news of his teammate's death came, and he was thinking rapidly.
The father and son were killed, and their bodies were hidden in the closet. There were almost no signs of resistance in the room, indicating that the ninja who hid them did not want them to be discovered.
The wounds on their thighs were signs of torture. Combined with what Kyuubi said, there were five people waiting in his room...
[Are they here specifically to see me? ]
[Or is their goal to kill everyone in this hotel? ]
Never mind. Now is not the time to explore whether this incident was caused by him.
Giyu grabbed the sword he just bought from the street stall, stepped into the dark corridor, and walked to his room with Kyuubi.
With every step he took, more waves would appear in his heart, and then they would be forcibly smoothed out, and his whole face would become tighter and tighter.
[Let them pay the price first, and then ask for clarification. ]
When he was still five or six meters away from the door of his room, Giyu helped Kyuubi and put it on the ground.
"Kyuubi, you can't get hurt. Wait until you feel what's going on inside is over before coming in."
Kyuubi is a clone, and it will explode if hit by a shuriken. It didn't feel like it was being attacked by the Giyu boy this time.
It squatted on the ground and hesitated for two or three seconds, and then reminded: "You have to be careful, there are five of them after all."
Giyu nodded, calmly walked to the door of the room, slowly opened the paper door, and let out a movement that reminded the other person that he had returned.
At the same time, the thumb of his left hand holding the sword slowly pushed the blade out of the scabbard, but the sound was hidden by the sound of the door opening.
There were no lights and no one in the room.
Giyu didn't find it strange and continued walking inside, opening the door to the courtyard behind.
Thick mist suddenly rushed in.
At this time, there was a thunderous explosion in the direction of the tower, which illuminated the mist-shrouded courtyard in pale white, revealing five ethereal figures sitting, standing, or squatting on the trees. But as the thunder went out, they disappeared again.
The transparent world can only see through the human body, but cannot see through the thick mist.
But mist is also a form of water, so Giyu can actually grasp their position when using water breathing.
Giyu walked into the thick mist without a care, and was about the same distance from the five people.
He asked in a cold voice: "Are you the ones who killed everyone in this hotel?"
After a moment of silence, a dry voice rang out, but it was not in reply to Giyu's words.
"Are you sure you didn't find the wrong person? Didn't you say that his brother is timid? But this guy is actually questioning us..."
Another voice replied impatiently: "We have tortured so many shopkeepers. This is the only place where a single child is staying. Besides, I said it might not be him, but you still have to come together."
"I have been suppressed by that guy, and now I have the opportunity to take revenge on his brother. How could I miss this?!"
Giyu frowned.
"Have you been to other hotels?"
"He's asking us again. He's a little scared for no reason, but also a little excited!"
Another person was teasing him.
"Stop talking nonsense, let's make sure he is the child we're looking for first."
In the thick mist, a hazy blue light suddenly flashed on the side of this guy who sounded relatively normal.
"Thunder Release: Earth Walk!"
All Kirigakure ninjas know one thing, that is, the water transformation technique of the Hozuki clan is restrained by Thunder Release.
If this kid is indeed Hozuki Suigetsu, his body will definitely deform when he is hit by Thunder Release!
The sound of crackling sounded chaotically, and slender lightning bolts spread along the ground like rapidly spreading snakes from the depths of the mist. Even the thick mist near the surface flashed with arcs, even in the transparent dynamic In the eyesight, this move is still ridiculously fast. This is the biggest advantage of Thunder Release Ninjutsu.
[They seem to be used to fighting in thick mist... Are they Mist Ninjas? ]
Giyu made a judgment instantly.
Just when the lightning quickly covered the ground under his feet, Giyu found the origin of this technique, and immediately stood up, leaping towards that direction like a tiger crossing a stream, with the samurai sword at his waist drawn. In an instant, it was dyed light blue representing the water attribute chakra!
He raised the sword over his head in mid-air, and when he was about to land, he slammed it downwards. The thick mist around him turned into water droplets from near and far like soldiers being dispatched, and was absorbed around the sword. The ninja using Thunder Release was exposed.
Facing the sword that struck his head, the eyes under the ninja mask flashed with a hint of astonishment, and then immediately formed a seal, with thunder and lightning entwining under his feet.
"Thunder Flash Technique!"
Giyu's blade fell into the water, and the ninja disappeared, turning into a blue lightning and rushing into the thick mist on the other side.
"Be careful, this kid is weird."
"Isn't he from the Hozuki clan?"
"No. It's thundering all the time over there, and he has no intention of being afraid at all."
"Since it's not the case, just kill him and keep looking."
" Understood."
In just a few seconds, the ninjas exchanged information.
Giyu also figured out that these ninjas must have found the wrong person. But that didn't diminish the anger deep inside him even a little bit.
There were so many people in the hotel, and they just killed them in order to find someone, as if they accidentally stepped on an ant nest while passing by.
This kind of trampling and disregard for human life is even more unscrupulous compared to the hostility of the rain ninja towards the homeless people.
[Is this what the so-called Blood Mist Ninja means? ]
Thinking of this, Giyu didn't want to ask any questions before solving them.
[Let’s decide quickly. ]
"Wave riding attack."
The water surface appeared under Giyu's feet, like a skateboard, leading him straight to the location where the sounds were densest.
"Ten fingers shot through!"
There was a series of unpleasant sounds like tearing flesh and blood in the thick mist, and ten bone spurs the size of fingertips swirled and rushed towards Giyu.
The latter showed no fear and braked suddenly while sliding. Like a car that hit the guardrail at high speed, it rose into the air and turned over twice in succession, summoning two huge and sharp circular water blades! It's the second form, waterwheel!
A ring-shaped water blade, like a wheel, rolled towards the place where the finger shot flew!
The other one went in the opposite direction, knocking down a row of kunai and shurikens flying from the other side.
At the same time, they were like two electric fans turned on to high settings, sweeping away the mist along the way.
At this point, all five people in the group were exposed to Giyu.
The ninja who had shot him with finger bullets before had a thin film of bone forming on his body, resisting the repeated cuts of the waterwheel.
And the ninja who used lightning to escape was making seals there like crazy.
When the thick mist was cleared away and Giyu looked at him, a cruel smile immediately appeared on his face under the mask, probably preparing a dangerous Thunder Release ninjutsu.
Unfortunately, Giyu was in a hurry to figure out the whole story and didn't give him time to complete the technique.
He slashed back casually and caught another ninja's slash. At the same time, Giyu puffed up his cheeks and spit out a high-pressure water line as thick as his thumb.
"Water Release·Water Breaking Wave."
"Ahhhhhh!"
The Thunder Release ninja screamed, and the fingers that were forming seals were cut off by the rapids on the spot. Then the torso was treated in the same way, and the central axis of the chest and abdomen was almost cut off directly by water break wave cuts.
This time, Giyu had no intention of showing any mercy.
"Be careful! He uses the water release very quickly!"
The other four people saw the clues and warned each other, but they didn't care about the fallen companion. Anyway, they didn't even know what the face under the mask looked like.
"Fight him in close combat! In this way, his water release will not be able to exert its power!"
As the time limit of the water wheel ended, the ninja who used bones to fight was finally free, and he made tiger claws with his hands and rushed towards Giyu. Just when he was still one meter away from Giyu, two long sharp bone spurs suddenly emerged from the heel of his palm, poking at Giyu's eyes. At the same time, the other three people also surrounded him from the left, right and back, each holding out the sharp ninja sword in his hand.
Unfortunately, there are many types of water release.
"Water Breathing: Sixth Form: Whirlpool, Flow!"
Two intertwined winding water whirlpools suddenly rose from Giyu's feet. The moment the four people's attacks hit him, Whirlpool wrapped his body and used the water flow to deflect their sword's path.
The ninja from the Kaguya clan charged the hardest before. When the two bone spurs encountered the current, they immediately turned aside. Instead, they pierced one of his companions, causing blood to splash everywhere.
"Guy from the Kaguya clan! What are you doing?!"
Giyu took advantage of the three people's shock and kicked the ninja of the Kaguya clan on the neck, but only heard a heavy muffled sound. Giyu's blow did not cause substantial damage, but only drove him out of the center of the battlefield.
[What a hard bone. ]
He was a little surprised, as if he was back to when he first started hunting demons, the demon's neck was so hard.
But the surprise didn't last long, and the two remaining ninjas still needed to be dealt with.
As if sensing Giyu's gaze, the two people jumped up one after another, forming seals with their hands, intending to create a blindfold and disappear immediately. However, it was still too late.
"Fourth Form: Striking Tide!"
Giyu's body surged up like the waves of the sea hitting the rocks.
He held a real sword in his right hand, and spit out a transparent water blade from the fingertips of his left hand. He rushed into the sky and passed between the two people. Then the two weapons hit their vests hard.
Red blood spurted out from under their masks at the same time, and then they fell to the ground like flies that had been killed.
At this point, the only one left in the messy courtyard was the guy who fought with bones.
Giyu left him until the end, not only because he was the one who killed the inn owner and his son, but also because this guy's physical defense was too strong and he couldn't kill him without a little more concentration.
"I didn't expect that I actually met a decent opponent here!"
The ninjas of the Kaguya clan did not take the opportunity to attack Giyu who fell from the air. Instead, he ripped off his own shirt, revealing a body that had been tempered and covered with scars.
Then he clasped the mask on his face with one hand, crushed it into pieces, and threw it into the "children's size" hot spring in the courtyard, revealing a face without eyebrows, and every pore was filled with an aura of aggressive madness.
Judging from his appearance, he was only sixteen or seventeen, but his spirit was unusually high.
"Although you have been using water release, I just received a kick from you, and I know that your strength is also extraordinary."
The ninja's eyes showed strong desire, "My mission has failed, and I will be executed by the Mizukage when I return. . But more than that, I want to die in the hands of a genius like you! Can you satisfy my wish without using Water Release?"
[ There was no intention of asking for mercy at all...]
Giyu looked at him in silence, unable to imagine what kind of environment such a person grew up in.
He looked around. Two of the remaining four people were dead, and the remaining two were dying. If he wanted to ask questions, he would have to use Mistic Palm to heal them...
"I can promise you."
Giyu drew his sword and put it on his chest. "But in exchange, I want to ask you a few questions about Kirigakure Village. Is that okay?"
“No problem at all."
Although he was a cruel and hateful person, the other party was surprisingly straightforward.
"Those of us were all deliberately sent to die by Mizukage. There is no need to hide anything for you!”
