: The Seven Ninja Swordsmen Fall Down

Chapter 76: The Seventh Ninja Swordsman Falls Down

"Enemy attack!"

With a loud roar, the entire Uchiha camp was alerted.

Countless Uchiha ninjas quickly ran out of the tents, keeping watch on the surroundings, demonstrating their superior skills.

"Tsk, we've been discovered. This is troublesome. We can't break through the entire Uchiha defense line silently anymore. We might as well listen to me, sneak in quietly, kill Uchiha Kagura and the others, and then go on a killing spree."

Suigetsu-san looked at Kurishari Kushimaru speechlessly.

He kills people with long knives and needles, and insists on playing bondage games; most of the time is wasted on this guy.

He was also very close to Muli Shenba, making it difficult for him to offend him.

Now, things are different. In the game of cat and mouse, the mouse has given the warning, and the game is over.

He also wasted the intelligence he obtained from his strategic partners.

If that's the case, why bother gathering intelligence at all? Why not just go all out? Going on a rampage halfway through an infiltration is truly baffling.

Do they think this intelligence gathering is too easy and they have to make it more difficult?

"Alright, let's prepare for battle. We've already breached the first line of defense. Now, let's send the signal for Ao to lead the Mist Ninja to attack!"

Juzo Biwa's suggestion was unanimously approved by the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.

Now that their strength has been exposed, without the main force of the Mist Ninja to tie down the Uchiha forces, they will face a difficult situation.

"Uchiha Teru, Uchiha Tetsuka, Uchiha Inaha, Uchiha Hachiho, come and fight me! The rest of you, defend the lines and prevent a large-scale attack from the Mist Ninja!"

Uchiha Yakumi roared, suppressing the Uchiha's panic and giving them a sense of direction, which brought everything back to order.

"Was it a coincidence that the Seven Ninja Swordsmen attacked while their clan leader was leading his elite troops away...?"

Uchiha Yakumi felt uneasy.

What a coincidence! The great battle just ended yesterday, and today they've sent the Seven Ninja Swordsmen to attack. The Mist Ninja haven't received any concrete information, so they absolutely refuse to believe it.

Moreover, there was absolutely no warning about the defenses! If he hadn't changed the camp's defenses after the chieftain led the elite troops away, the consequences would have been unimaginable!

The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist looked at Uchiha Yakumi, who was giving orders, and said, "Kill him first to disrupt the Uchiha's command structure. That way, our mission will be complete."

But before the Seven Ninja Swordsmen could get there, a wave of heat hit them, causing them to stop in their tracks.

"This heatwave...it's Uchiha Teru!"

The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist looked at a figure radiating crimson flames.

A surge of crimson flames, all of extremely high purity, enveloped Uchiha Hikaru's body. The power was transmitted throughout his body by his constantly rumbling heart, churning everything in front of him as if it were being torn apart.

Even without being unleashed, a powerful aura gives people a strong sense of oppression.

The ground seemed unable to withstand the heavy pressure, cracking and sinking.

This is the Flame Breathing technique operating at overload, and Uchiha Kaguya using Futsu-no-Mitama to squeeze out his own life and potential, leaving no room for anything else.

It can be said that after this incident, Uchiha Hikaru has reached the end of his life.

"Although the sunset is the afterglow of the sun, it should still be magnificent enough to leave a lasting impression and be unforgettable."

"Originally, I would have been assimilated by Futsu-no-Mitama very soon. But since you all arrived at the right time, having the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist accompany me to my final moments is not bad."

Uchiha Teru's gaze towards the Seven Ninja Swordsmen was very strange; it was a mixture of joy, disdain, and greed.

Watermelon Pufferfish Demon frowned, sensing something was wrong, and retreated behind the others.

"Kid, I really don't like the way you look at me. Go to hell!"

Kusayama, wielding a blunt sword called Kabuto, charged toward Uchiha Teru, his eyes gleaming with bloodlust.

The Seven Ninja Hidden Mist Villagers did not stop them; they all wanted to obtain specific information about Uchiha Kaname's strength.

Facing the incoming blunt blade, Kabuto Slash, Uchiha Teru remained completely unfazed, simply raising his hand to block it with Futsu-no-Mitama.

"Kid! I can shatter any defense!"

The hammer attached to the other end of the blunt knife was taken by Tongcao Yeren in his other hand, and then slammed down hard.

"Bang!"

Uchiha Hikaru remained as firm as a rock, and the Futsu-no-Mitama in his hand showed no abnormality whatsoever.

"How is this possible! Something's wrong with this knife!"

A look of shock appeared on Tongkusa Norito's face as he stared at Futsu no Mitama as if he had seen a ghost.

However, Uchiha Teru skillfully dodged the Blunt Blade: Helmet Slash and resumed his stance.

"not good!"

Too shocked to react in time, Kusano Yaito found himself facing Uchiha Hikaru, who had already prepared his attack.

"Flame Breathing - Third Form - Myriad Flames of Air!"

Uchiha Kaname slashed downwards at a speed invisible to the naked eye, the slash accompanied by an arc of intense flames falling towards Kusano Yato.

A flash of light, and flames mixed with blood scattered in the air, an exceptionally eerie sight.

Just as Uchiha Kaname was killing Kusano Yato, a sharp blade flew over and struck Uchiha Kaname's body.

This is a branch of the natural energy garment that Zhiyi researched in the Hall of Thought—the Remnant Sun Prison Garment, whose defensive capabilities are quite reliable.

Seeing Uchiha Hikaru's performance, Uchiha Yakumi was overjoyed. With such a genius, this time was secure, and the rise of the Uchiha clan would be unstoppable.

The remaining six members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist had serious expressions. The enemy was quite strong; a single probing attack had resulted in the loss of one of their members.

Uchiha Teru glanced at the wary Six Ninja Swordsmen and uttered a disdainful sneer.

Suigetsu Hozuki took a deep breath. "The intelligence report didn't say that Uchiha Teru was that strong. Your intelligence is unreliable. Can we still cooperate in the future?"

"Attack together! I'll hold off the other reinforcements, you all surround and kill Uchiha Kagura!"

Uchiha Yaku's gaze, filled with murderous intent, fell upon Suigetsu Hozuki. "Tekka, Inahisa, Yasuo, follow me! Cover Hikaru!"

However, facing Suigetsu Fuguki, who possesses Samehada to absorb chakra and heal his injuries, it will be difficult for him to break through in the short term.

They could only anxiously watch Uchiha Teru's battlefield.

Seeing the ferocious faces of the five ninja sword wielders rushing towards him, Uchiha Teru revealed an even more sinister smile.

Uchiha Kaguya burned with all his might, squeezing out the power of his life force in pursuit of a moment of brilliance!

Endless crimson flames emerged from Uchiha Kaname's body, and crimson radiance emanated from him, making him appear like a sage.

"Flame Breathing - Ninth Form: Purgatory!"

Uchiha Kaguya charged forward like a shooting star in the night sky, and the fiery demon from purgatory reappeared.

Facing this fierce attack, Juzo Biwa reacted the fastest, holding his guillotine sword in front of him to protect himself, and dodging with all his might, barely avoiding a fatal wound.

He was left with severe burns on the left side of his body, but he didn't care. Without leaving a word, he fled directly towards the direction of the Mist Ninja army.

The others were not so lucky. Mushishi Jinpachi and Kurihara Kushimaru were engulfed by flames, leaving behind two corpses. The first owner of the Twin Blades Hiramekarei was killed.

Only Raiga Kurosuki was still breathing, but he was also on the verge of death.
