Chapter 182
"You have a very strange chakra.»
White Snake-Sage exhaled the smoke and stared at Erase: "From the outside, it seems that your chakra is no different from a normal Shinobi, but in fact, its volume is much higher than normal...are you a human being, or are you some kind of being in human form?»
Erase shook his head: "of Course I am.»
"I see...»
The White Snake Sage stared at Yeruashi for a few seconds, then exhaled smoke again and said, " Even I can't see the nature of this anomaly, it's been quite a while since I've met someone like you, shinobi. Are you here to learn the Ryuchi Cave Sage Mode? Then, come with me.»
After saying this, the White Serpent Sage slid down from the stone platform and headed deeper into the temple
Erase followed him.
The White Snake Sage couldn't see the reason for Yeruashi's anomaly, but he already knew that it was Orochimaru's disciple, so he didn't hesitate to explain the principles of the Ryuchi Cave Sage Mode to him.
But that's all, just an explanation.
After explaining the basic points and pointing out the main direction of the practice, the White Snake Sage slowly returned to the stone platform and once again began to smoke his pipe in a relaxed manner.
"This Is The Sage Mode Of Cave Ryuchi...»
Erase sank into a deep reverie, analyzing and systematizing the information received from the White Snake Sage.
The Sage mode of Cave Ryuchi radically different from the Mode of the Sage of the Mountain Myoboku, which Erase most familiar, much stronger focus on flexibility and variability.
In comparison, the Sage Mode of mount Myoboku largely focuses on brute force. Simply put, the Ryuchi Cave Sage Mode is pliable and flexible, while the Myeboku Mountain Sage Mode is rough and straightforward.
As for the Sage Mode of the Shikkotsu Forest, it can be assumed that it is focused on healing and division.
"I'm going to practice a little bit here. Rin, your chakra volume does not meet the minimum practice standards of the Sage Mode, so you should continue to train the Sanbi Chakra Mode.»
Erase turned to Rin, found a suitable place to train and sat down.
He wasn't going to go too deep into the Ryuchi Cave Sage Mode, but only to master the most basic and necessary points clearly.
Rin nodded and also found a place to practice.
...
In ten days.
In the mountains north of Ryuchi Cave.
The seven figures were rushing rapidly through the hills and trees.
Each of these figures carried a sword with a bizarre shape.
Each of these swords has a certain reputation in the Shinobi world.
These were Kirigakure's strongest elite Shinobi-the Seven Mist Swordsmen!
"We should be close by now.»
Fuguki Suikazan, who was carrying a massive sword on his back, stopped in his tracks and looked around.
Juzo Biwa, who was carrying a Cubikiribocho on his back, shook his head: "I can't feel Sanbi's chakra at all, but he really must be somewhere nearby.»
Previously, according to the plan, they were supposed to attack unexpectedly and cause huge damage to Konoha when she was in chaos due to the rampage of the Sanbi.
The probability of success of this plan was very high.
But suddenly, there was a Silver Flash of Konoha, who was absent for two whole years!
Not only did he doom their plan to utter failure, in addition, Sanbi fell into the hands of Konoha!
This was certainly unacceptable to Kirigakure.
There was no way they could let Konoha take possession of their most powerful weapon! But earlier, Nohara Rin stayed in the village all the time. Even if the Seven Mist Swordsmen had absolute confidence in their abilities, they wouldn't dare to attack Konoha roughly to try to steal a human from there.
Some time ago, information was received in Kirigakura that Jinchuriki Sanbi had finally left Konoha. They couldn't miss this opportunity and immediately took action.
Since Sanbi has been controlled by Kiri for a long time, they have special methods for tracking him, even if he is sealed in a Jinchuriki.
However.
There is one problem.
According to the information received, Nohara Rin did not leave Konoha alone, but together with the Silver Flash, which makes the situation more difficult.
But the Third Mizukage still wanted to act, realizing that it was impossible to allow the Sanbi to be in the Hands of Konoha. After a little consultation, they decided to go on the attack!
They are the Seven Mist Swordsmen!
It's just one person!
The Seven Mist Swordsmen are well aware that none of them alone is an opponent of Konoha's Silver Flash, but if combined, their combat power is comparable to all of Kiri's other forces!
It's safe to say that the Seven Mist Swordsmen represent about half of Kirigakure's fighting power! They are fully confident that they can kill the Third Raikage, crush Amegakure, and deal massive damage to Sunagakure!
They were really afraid to act while Silver Flash and Sanbi's Jinchuriki were in Konoha.
Because now Konoha has the Sannins, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, and the incredibly deadly Yellow Flash. The Seven Mist Swordsmen weren't arrogant enough to act against such a Konoha.
But they were not at all afraid of encountering a single Silver Flash, on the contrary, it was a very lucky opportunity!
Previously.
Minato killed two of them.
But then they did not act together, but were divided into groups of two. One of the groups encountered Minato and was destroyed.
For the Seven Mist Swordsmen, two and seven are completely different concepts. If they had been in full force, the outcome of this battle would have been completely different.
Now.
After joining the ranks of Hozuki Mangetsu and Ameyuri Ringo, the Seven Mist Swordsmen once again have a full roster. Although the newcomers are young, but they are the best geniuses of Kirigakure and wield legendary swords!
"I repeat again. Silver Flash is a skilled user of Raitonjutsu and has a high speed, but unlike Yellow Flash, he does not possess that problematic space-time ninjutsu. As soon as the Silver Flash will be subject to our special equipment, he will not be able to fully display the advantage of speed. Are you all ready to use the tactics we practiced earlier?»
Fugaku Sunatan turned serious turning to the rest of the Swordsmen of the Mist.
Silver Flash is different from ordinary opponents, it is not even worth discussing how dangerous this Shinobi is. When faced with such an opponent, it is necessary to be as prepared and focused as possible, despite their complete confidence in victory.
"You can be sure.»
"Heh-heh-heh...he's too opinionated, just dare to leave Konoha along with the Jinchuuriki of SANBI.»
"Hmm, when we kill the Silver Flash of Konoha, the entire shinobi world will be afraid of the Seven Mist Swordsmen, ha ha ha...»
The voices of the other Mist Swordsmen were filled with confidence.
They are in full force!
Kirigakure has a decent amount of information about the Silver Flash, and several counteraction plans were developed before sending it!
With such careful preparation, everything is sure to go smoothly.
It's time for the legendary Silver Flash of Konoha...go to hell!
