Chapter 10 The Mine Was Bombed
Chapter 10 The Mine Was Bombed
Thick fog shrouded the entire village of Kirigakure, and it was another overcast day.
After preparing his toolbox, Mi Shou went out and looked at the hurried passersby on the street before heading towards the school.
Unlike Kyosuke, it's normal for Yamori, as a descendant of ninjas, to know some ninjutsu and taijutsu, which is why he was able to show more talent and strength from the beginning.
Before enrolling in school, he had already taught a lesson to all the unruly kids around him, making a name for himself.
"I heard you're pretty fierce. When we get to school, I'll show you what a real ninja is."
"Don't leave after school, dare to fight me."
"Blue-eyed guy, you're dead today."
Compared to Konoha, the people of Kirigakure are more 'straightforward and enthusiastic'. On his first day of school, Mikami was challenged by many people, but he did not refuse.
"A challenge is fine, you get paid if you lose, which is a good way to improve your life. Don't waste your time, all of you come at me."
In this environment, kindness and compassion only bring more trouble, so Mi Shou became even more arrogant, and his words showed contempt for everyone.
"hateful!"
"Hmph, I hope you'll still be this stubborn when you're begging for mercy later!"
I'm going to kill you!
At this moment, with the power of the dream, Mi Shou's strength far surpasses that of the children. Even if there are bloodstained ninjas among them, they are still no match for Mi Shou before they have fully grown up.
At the cost of some external injuries, Mi Shou defeated three opponents in a short time with his capable and ruthless style. Two of them were knocked unconscious, and one was lying on the ground clutching his stomach and vomiting.
"I didn't expect you to be stronger than the rumors suggested."
Zabuza, his face covered, walked over from a section of the alley, his eyes coldly fixed on Mikami.
"Hmph, you're just a little kid, why are you acting so fierce? You look better when you smile! I misspoke, you don't have eyebrows, you look ugly whether you smile or not."
Regardless of whether he could win or not, Mikami showed no fear, and instead teased Zabuza with a smile.
When Zabuza was being teased, he remained silent for a moment before turning and leaving.
"It's true what they say, a barking dog doesn't bite. I feel like he already wants to kill me. It seems there's no way to reason with him. I can only increase my strength and defeat him. Hmm, I need to make sure those four low-level accounts work hard."
For the next period of time, Mikami waited for Zabuza's challenge or even a sneak attack, but instead of Zabuza, he was greeted by members of the Kaguya clan.
"You're the one who broke my brother's left arm. Quickly kneel down and apologize, and break your own arm, or you'll regret it."
This Kaguya clan member is probably eight or nine years old, likely a senior student.
Mi Shou was secretly on guard, but his face showed disdain: "These past few days, I've broken so many bones for so many guys, how would I know who your brother is?"
Upon hearing Misato's words, the Kaguya clansman laughed loudly: "Hahaha, I didn't expect you to be so bold, daring to be so arrogant in front of our Kaguya clan. Very well, remember this, it was Kaguya Teppei who crippled you!"
Kaguya Teppei grew long bone spurs from her arms and used them as weapons to attack Mikami directly.
So fast!
Just as Mikami raised his kunai to defend himself, the attack was already upon him, and it was full of power. Mikami used all his strength to withstand the first wave of intense attacks.
"I didn't expect you to be so skilled in physical combat! This is getting interesting! Hahahaha!"
Seeing that his attack was blocked, Kaguya Teppei became excited and attacked even more fiercely, even abandoning defense altogether.
This style of fighting, which involves trading blows for blows, has indeed put considerable pressure on Mi Shou.
Kaguya's bones are extremely tough. Mikami once stabbed her in the arm, but the kunai only pierced the skin before being blocked by the bones.
Mi Shou doesn't have that kind of bone structure, so if he gets hit, he will definitely be injured. Therefore, he has to devote a lot of energy to defense, which puts him at a complete disadvantage.
We're going to lose if we keep going like this!
Mi Shou was finding it increasingly difficult and decided to change the situation. He immediately retreated seven or eight meters and quickly formed hand seals.
"Water Release: Water Chaos Waves!"
Mi Shou spat out a large amount of water to impact Kaguya Teppei, but the opponent paid no attention and rushed directly into the water, the bone spikes cutting through the layers of water like sharp swords.
A large amount of water spilled onto the ground, forming a large puddle.
While the water curtain obscured the opponent's vision, Mi Shou used the clone technique and the transformation technique in succession, leaving a water clone in place while his main body turned into a puddle of water on the ground.
As the son of a ninja, it's normal for him to know these basic ninjutsu.
Kaguya Teppei burst out of the water curtain, shattering Mikami's water clone. Mikami seized the opportunity to attack Teppei from behind, punching him in the back of the neck and knocking him unconscious.
"The older students bullied the younger students and even got killed in return. You should reflect on your actions here."
Miyu glanced at Kaguya Teppei in the puddle and then left.
Compared to others, Kiichiro's life was comfortable and affluent.
Their family is in the mining business, having contracted an iron mine in the Land of Thunder, which provides them with a stable income.
To make management easier, they built a two-story building near the iron mine, where Kiichiro basically lived.
There is no compulsory education in this world, and Kiichiro doesn't need to go to school. He learns knowledge, ninjutsu, and taijutsu from the teachers he's hired.
Eating, sleeping, practicing meditation, and chatting nonsense in dreams—Kiichiro's life is very structured.
In the courtyard, Kiichiro brandished his unsharpened long sword, constantly battling against Shimizu-sensei. After a short while, he was defeated by the forty-something-year-old teacher.
"Oniichiro, your stamina is excellent, and your swordsmanship has improved well. You will definitely become a powerful samurai in the future."
Zhi Shui sheathed his sword, stroked his gray goatee, and praised the ghost-like figure.
"Teacher, this is the age of ninjas, your methods are outdated."
"You brat!"
The two were arguing when they suddenly heard a loud bang, and thick black smoke rose from the distant mine.
"What's going on?!"
Kiichiro was shocked and was about to run towards the mine, since his adoptive parents had just gone there on business.
"Stop!"
Shimizu stopped Kiichiro, his face serious: "The mine may be under attack. You can't go there; it could be dangerous!"
"But……"
After all, his adoptive parents treated Kiichiro very well, so he felt he had to do something about it.
Shimizu could only reassure Kiichiro: "Don't worry, they'll be fine."
Not long after, the surviving miners found Kiichiro and told him some terrible news.
"Young Master, the mine was attacked by ninjas. Many people died, the mine shafts were blown up, and the Master and Madam are also dead..."
"What?! Damn it, what kind of ninja did this?!"
Enraged, Oniichiro shouted, wanting to know who the enemy was.
The worker's face was blackened and he had many wounds on his body. It was a miracle that he was still alive. How could he possibly care about the identity of a ninja? He could only shake his head and cry.
At this moment, Shimizu suggested, "Kiichiro, since there are ninjas invading the Land of Lightning, we should notify the Cloud Ninja. They certainly won't ignore it."
Kiichiro calmed down a bit and nodded: "That's right, the Cloud Ninja won't let anyone act recklessly here. Go to the Cloud Ninja Village immediately!"
On that day, Kiichiro collected the body for burial and sent people to Kumogakure.
He also went to the mine to take a look, but the attackers were very professional and left no obvious traces, so he couldn't determine the enemy's identity.
