Chapter 14: Beheading a Chuunin (Edited)

After purchasing the ninja equipment and creating the basic method for training the Hachimon Tonko, Yeruashi took a nap, in a state of time acceleration, about two and a half hours later in the real world, he woke up, ate and headed to his usual training place.

His usual training place is in the back mountains of Konoha, which is also where a lot of people usually practice, but right now it's night and it was very quiet and empty.

Under the moonlight.

Yeruashi started training.

He can only succeed in practicing Hachimon Tonko through monotonous and hard work, there are no shortcuts. There is no way to copy or improve his understanding of the technique, all this is meaningless from Hachimon Tonko's point of view.

...

Four hours later.

Yeruashi had already removed the weights and was resting by the rock, his clothes soaked with sweat, as if he had just bathed.

The practice of Hachimon Tonko is much more strenuous than the practice of ordinary ninjutsu and Taijutsu, although Yeruashi has the ability to speed up time, he only speeds up his time in relates to the outside world, as his training is carried out at a normal speed.

"Hoo!"

This was already the seventh rest, and although his body had almost regained its stamina, Yeruashi continued to sit, unwilling to get up.

At three times the acceleration, four hours in the real world equaled twelve hours for Yeruashi.

"This should be enough, I'll continue after I sleep."

Yeruashi felt a strong mental fatigue and abandoned his original intention to continue training, got up, picked up the weights he had taken off and prepared to go home to sleep.

But at that moment, he stopped abruptly, put the weights down and sharpened his hearing.

Crack! Crack!

A faint sound came from deep in the forest.

Something seemed to be moving through the trees.

It's past midnight, and it's definitely not good to meet a person in the forest at this hour, so Yeruashi frowned, becoming more cautious.

Although Yeruashi didn't know what kind of person it was, he didn't want to meet the other party, and hearing the other party's movement, it seems that the person was moving in his direction and will pass by him.

"Mmm..."

Roughly assessing the person's position, Yeruashi hid behind a rock, in this position, he should not fall into the other party's field of vision.

The sound of footsteps first grew louder and then began to fade, as if the other party had passed by without noticing.

However.

As soon as the sound of footsteps faded away, some silver flashes flashed under the moonlight, with the sound of the air splitting, about eight shurikens rushed towards the place where Yeruashi was hiding, blocking all possible escape routes.

"Fuck!"

Yeruashi cursed, blocked several shurikens with the white light chakra sword that had been ready from the beginning, and abruptly jumped to the side, landing on top of the rocks and looking intently in the direction where the shurikens had come from.

A human figure could be seen in that direction, the person's forehead protector reflected the moonlight, it was not the symbol of Konoha, but it was still familiar to Yeruashi.

Kirigakure!

A ninja from Kirigakure!

"He turned out to be just a kid!"

Ameyu Hayashi also looked at Yeruashi, a cold light shone in his eyes, and in the next moment, he rushed forward, unsheathing his short sword as he advanced and swung it towards Yeruashi.

He was a scout of Kirigakure, an elite Chuunin and a sensor, having made a great effort, he made his way into the depths of the land of fire and now attempted to enter Konoha, but on the way he sensed the presence of a ninja.

At first, he was very scared, thinking that he had been ambushed, but after careful observation, he found that Yeruashi was alone and that his chakra fluctuations was not strong, after analyzing the situation, Ameyu decided to create a clone that will continue to create the sound of footsteps, and made a sneak attack on Yeruashi.

He was a little surprised that Yeruashi was able to block his attacks, but seeing the figure of a ten year old boy, Ameyu let out a sigh of relief and took decisive action.

You have to deal with this as quickly as possible!

This forest can already be considered Konoha's territory, the battle must be as calm as possible and end as soon as possible, otherwise it may become dangerous. He needed to kill this boy as quickly and efficiently as possible, and then continue to infiltrate Konoha.

"It seems that this place is not safe."

"I won't come here in the middle of the night anymore."

Seeing that the Kirigakure ninja did not hesitate to attack, Yeruashi went over some thoughts in his head and swung the white light chakra sword, blocking the enemy's attack.

Klang! Klang! Klang! Klang! Klang! Klang!

Flashs flew and the clash of metal could be heard as Yeruashi's white light chakra sword clashed with Ameyu's short sword collided in the forest.

They quickly exchanged a dozen blows, and from his initial killing intent, Ameyu was surprised, due to the fact that the boy in front of him was not as weak as he had expected.

"A boy with silver hair, using a short sword, it seems that this is the son of the White Fang of Konoha."

Ameyu's eyes flashed.

There shouldn't be any mistake!

With the name of the Incredible genius Hatake Kakashi circulating around Konoha, of course he was included in Kirigakure's kill list, no one wants to see the appearance of another Konoha White Fang!

If he killed this boy, it would be a great achievement, and even if he didn't get any information, he could return to the village without receiving any punishment!

Compared to the risky espionage in Konoha, killing a child was certainly a preferable option, besides, Ameyu was already noticed by him, without killing this child, it is impossible to continue infiltrating Konoha.

Whoosh!!!

At this thought, the murderous intent in Ameyu's eyes increased, and without hesitation, taking advantage in the momentum of the following sword clash, he suddenly jumped backwards, grabbed the hilt of the short blade with his teeth and quickly performed several hand seals swiftly.

"Kirigakure no Jutsu!" ( Jutsu: Concealment in the Mist)

"Fūton: Kiryū" (Wind Jutsu: Air Stream).

Before the white fog could spread, Yeruashi used a Wind Jutsu as if he had foreseen beforehand, and a gust of wind instantly dispersed the fog that hadn't had time to spread in all directions, though it was still foggy and blocked the view a bit, but the impact was much less.

Ameyu frowned slightly, but still rushed resolutely into the fog, intending to kill Yeruashi.

"..."

For Yeruashi, this was the first real battle, a life-threatening battle, many people can often feel excessive emotion and fear, being unable to show even half of their real strength, but Yeruashi was completely calm.

The reason was simple.

On the one hand, he had already confirmed the enemy's strength. On the other hand, in a state of triple acceleration, the world around him was three times slower, including the movement of the Kirigakure ninja.

The white light chakra sword, in Yeruashi's hand, glowed in a white flash.

"Shiroi Kiba - Sora!"

As soon as the Kirigakure ninja rushed into the mist, Yeruashi's cold eyes glowed, and he raised his previously unused speed to its limit in an instant.

Ameyu saw Yeruashi rushing towards him with terrifying speed and looked a little strange, the small sword in his hand left the residual image in the air.

Ameyu's facial expression changed drastically.

How could he be so fast?

A thought flashed through Ameyu's mind, but he had no time to think of other things, faced with this terrifying speed that Yeruashi unexpectedly revealed, he could only swing his short sword with all his might, hoping to block the attack.

Klang!

Ameyu managed to block Yeruashi's sword at the last moment, when the sound of metal clashing was heard.

I managed to block it.

This thought crossed Ameyu's mind, but it only existed for a moment before he completely froze in place, a trace of disbelief shining in his eyes.

From the outside, it could be seen.

On the Kirigakure ninja's face, between the eyes and his eyebrows, was a perfectly smooth and neat red line.

His sword had blocked Yeruashi's sword, but he had not anticipated that the distance of Yeruashi's strike was not limited to the blade of his sword, but also to the distance of a foot extending from the white light chakra sword due to his recent mastery of chakra flow and time acceleration!

This is...

The Hatake clan's famous Kenjutsu technique!

The number of ninja who died under this technique in World War II was countless, and even though they knew its effects, they will still be unable to block this technique!

At the last moment, before Ameyu's consciousness plunged into darkness, an image of Konoha's famous White Fang and the countless ninja who had fallen under his blade flashed through his mind.

Silently.

Ameyu Hayashi swayed slightly, and his body fell to the ground.
