Sword and Illusion

"You little brat! I'll kill you!"

Shoichi's eyes bulged with rage. It was bad enough that Xin had ambushed them and scattered the supplies everywhere, but now he was openly mocking Hanzo, the leader of the

Rain Village.

Shoichi couldn't forgive this.

Drawing his sword, Yoshida Shoichi charged at Xin with a furious roar.

Xin stepped forward to meet the attack head-on. This time, he didn't rely on his special skills. Instead, he fought using pure taijutsu and kenjutsu.

The two figures collided like phantoms, their blades clashing with a metallic screech. The force of the impact reverberated up Yoshida Shoichi's arm, causing his pupils to contract.

This kid's speed and strength...!

Both were far beyond his own. If not for his extensive combat experience, that strike could have severed his hand.

The battle erupted in full force.

As Xin and Yoshida Shoichi clashed, Nawaki and Minato worked together to take on the other enemies. Surprisingly, it was Nawaki and Minato, who seemed at a disadvantage, that began to turn the tide.

One by one, the enemies fell. Minato's incredible reflexes and burst speed left Nawaki envious.

Though Nawaki was strong in taijutsu and had much more chakra than Minato, when it came to swiftly killing enemies, Minato was far superior.

Minato could unleash a sudden burst of speed during combat, catching his opponent off guard and driving a kunai into their throat or heart.

Nawaki, on the other hand, found it much more difficult.

"You're a decent sparring partner," Xin remarked as they fought. "Better than those other jonin from the Rain Village I've faced."

Yoshida Shoichi's taijutsu was impressive. Though his technique was somewhat erratic, his strength was genuine-unlike those so-called jonin who Xin had dispatched in just a few strikes.

"Brat, don't underestimate me!"

To hear a ten-year-old boy casually tell him that his strength was merely "decent" enraged Yoshida Shoichi.

Clang!

Xin blocked Yoshida's blade and chuckled. "What's the matter? Angry now? Well then, I suppose it's time for you to die."

Before Yoshida could react, Xin's strength surged. The sudden increase in power sent him reeling back.

What shocked him even more was that Xin's speed had increased once again.

A flash of red appeared in Xin's eyes as the three-tomoe Sharingan activated, their hypnotic crimson glow locking onto Yoshida.

With his Sharingan activated, Yoshida's movements appeared sluggish to Xin, as if he were watching a strange, slow-motion scene.

Xin's blade slid along Yoshida's arm, numbing it, before piercing through his ribcage and into his heart.

"You're... Uzagi Xin..."
