At a glance, one could see an endless lush green color in the vast and dense forest. Occasionally, a gentle breeze would blow past. Immediately, numerous enormous green waves would spread over the lush sea of trees from afar. Finally, they disappeared at the edge of one's sight. At a glance, it appeared to be quite tranquil and peaceful.
However, at this moment, a few whooshing sounds could be heard as a dozen figures flitted through the forest, breaking the tranquility of this place.
These people were dressed in Cloud Ninja clothing. Among them, their eyes were sharp as an eagle's as they carefully scanned the surrounding forest. However, the area of the forest was too large, and the tall weeds covered a lot of things outside the forest.
One of them closed his eyes and didn't move. After a while, he shook his head. "There is no target Chakra reaction around."
"Is that so?"
The group of people suddenly expressed their regret. They were unwilling to give up and searched again. After a while, they helplessly made a gesture to each other.
"Disperse!"
They separated from each other and flew in all directions.
However, this scene repeated countless times in the forest.
The Cloud Ninjas formed groups of more than ten people, and each group was responsible for the search of a certain area.
…
Under the lush forest, a towering tree stood tall. Around it, there were many other trees of similar height. It was the most suitable place to hide.
At the top of this big tree, there was a forked branch that was surrounded by dense leaves. Therefore, it was really difficult to discover what was hidden in it with a cursory glance.
"Phew …" His breathing was as calm as possible, but it was difficult to hide his fatigue. A moment later, the leaves trembled slightly, and a slightly pale face appeared. He first looked around and made sure that the people who were searching just now had left.
He couldn't help but sigh in relief. He sat on a thick branch with his back against the trunk. Cold sweat kept flowing from his forehead.
The figure hiding in the treetops was Kirito.
Not long ago, he fought against the Cloud. It can be said that he single-handedly cut off the Raikage's arm, defeated the Hachibi and the Nibi's Jinchuriki, and severely injured more than a thousand of the Cloud's Ninjas.
The image of such a terrifying figure did not seem to fit at all.
Creating a Shinobi Village with one's own strength, this is crazy behavior.
Although Kirito's attributes had reached the level of a Shadow Tier after he had mastered the Nine Yang Sutra, he was still a Shadow Tier.
And they have all kinds of powerful weapons, including the Tenseigan, which is on the same level as the Rinnegan of the Six Paths.
However, if he were to challenge a huge Ninja Village by himself, he would be overestimating himself, at least from the current point of view.
After all, Kirito's physical age is such that no matter how powerful the Kekkei Genkai is, if his chakra (energy) is not enough, he will not be able to fully exert its power.
At first glance, Kirito seemed to have single-handedly defeated the entire Cloud Ninja, but that was not the case.
Right now, he didn't have such strength. Otherwise, he wouldn't have acted separately from Hinata and the others. He sneaked in and attacked the Night Tsukuyomi to weaken the overall strength of the Cloud.
What's more, there were more than a thousand Cloud Ninjas, but that was only one-tenth of the total number of Ninjas in the Cloud Village.
You know, in the five great Ninja Villages, the total number of Ninjas in each village is no less than 10,000. The strongest village, Konoha, has more than 20,000 registered Ninjas, and the Cloud has about 16,000 Ninjas.
So, doesn't that mean that Kirito could only compete with less than one-tenth of the Cloud Ninja Village?
In fact, it's not that exaggerated. In fact, on that day, the Cloud gathered more than a thousand Ninjas to show their strength to the guests from all over the world. They were all outstanding Ninjas of the Cloud, plus the Raikage, Hachibi, and Nibi's Jinchuriki were present. According to the same combat power conversion, these thousand Ninjas can be said to account for more than 60% of the overall combat power of the Cloud Ninja.
On that day, if Kirito didn't face these thousand Ninjas, but the remaining 15,000 Ninjas, Kirito would have an easier time dealing with them.
In the end, Kirito completely defeated more than 60% of the Cloud Ninja's combat power, and safely walked down the mountain from the square, but now he hasn't completely left the Cloud Ninja's sphere of influence.
It couldn't be helped. Even Kirito was exhausted after fighting several Kage level battles at once.
The Tenseigan was closed because of the exhaustion of the eye power, and the remaining power in his body has reached the point where he can't even use Projection Magic, let alone Zanpakuto Kageyoshi.
As for the completely psychic White Snow, she can be Kirito's strongest combat power at this time, but White Snow has to be the guarantee of Hinata's safety, so he can't withdraw.
Therefore, on that day on the square, he didn't kill the weak Raikage and the rest of the Cloud Ninjas, not because he was soft-hearted, but because before he was ready to do so, he faintly felt that the battle here attracted thousands of Cloud Ninjas to gather at the foot of the mountain.
In terms of combat power, these Cloud Ninjas were not as good as the thousand Ninjas he killed, but unfortunately, Kirito almost exhausted his strength to defeat them, so in the face of this swarm of Cloud Ninjas, he had to temporarily retreat.
Otherwise, if these Cloud Ninjas knew what happened here, he wouldn't be able to escape.
Sure enough, after these Cloud Ninjas heard the news and understood what happened here, the Cloud Ninjas were furious, and immediately mobilized thousands of Cloud Ninjas to carry out a crazy carpet search within a radius of a few kilometers.
