The six of them weren't intimidated by his murderous gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the contrary, when Seimei looked at them, the six of them launched an attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two of them threw the kunai in their hands, aiming directly at Seimei's vital points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another two worked together to use the Earth Release: Earth Spear Technique, controlling earth spikes to emerge from the ground, sealing off Seimei's movement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the remaining two...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kurokawa Ichiro formed hand seals and used an unknown Fire Release ninjutsu, condensing six fireballs the size of human heads, smashing them towards Seimei from different directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kurogane's body suddenly turned grayish-brown, and then his entire being, like a cannonball, shot towards Seimei, throwing a punch at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, despite the numerous incoming attacks, Seimei didn't show any panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sharingan in his eyes spun rapidly, instantly taking in everything in front of him, and his brain worked at high speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, his nerve reactions were pushed to the limit, instantly judging the trajectories of these attacks and their possible subsequent changes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Based on this information, his figure flickered continuously, dodging the kunai attacks and evading the surprise attack of the earth spikes from the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fireballs controlled by Kurokawa Ichiro were also intercepted and exploded by the dense fireballs condensed from the Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique that Seimei used midway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the last one, Kurogane...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had obviously used some kind of Earth Release ninjutsu to change the structure and density of his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei didn't want to clash head-on with him, so he raised his hand and used the Genjutsu: Sharingan, freezing him in place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything seemed to take a long time to describe, but it actually happened in an instant. And in this instant, Seimei neutralized the joint attack of six Iwa-nin Jonin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After completing this, he didn't pause at all. His hands rapidly formed seals, and he skillfully used the ninjutsu - Wind Release: Wind Blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, a meter-long wind blade flew out, aiming directly at Kurogane, who was frozen in place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason for attacking him was, firstly, that the opportunity was rare, and secondly, he wanted to test how strong the opponent's Earth Release defense was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, when he saw Kurokawa Ichiro anxiously step forward and pull Kurogane away to avoid the wind blade, he roughly understood that the opponent probably couldn't withstand such an attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kurokawa Ichiro had witnessed the power of his Wind Release: Wind Blade, so his judgment shouldn't be wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, to prevent the opponent from deliberately misleading him, before completely confirming this information, Seimei decided not to exploit this point unless necessary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And just as Kurokawa Ichiro moved, the other four Iwa-nin Jonin also moved. Once again, two of them used ninjutsu to seal his dodging space, and the other two launched attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei's Sharingan kept spinning, and he nimbly dodged the ninjutsu attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the two Iwa-nin Jonin getting closer and closer to him, he suddenly drew his short sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he kicked off the ground with both feet, his entire body darting out like an arrow, arriving in front of the two in the blink of an eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Genjutsu: Sharingan~'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because these two were partners and had teammates behind them, they didn't avoid Seimei's gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, Seimei easily found an opportunity to cast genjutsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He raised his hand and used Genjutsu: Sharingan. One Iwa-nin Jonin was immediately affected and froze in place. The other Iwa-nin Jonin beside him sensed something was wrong and immediately thrust the kunai in his hand towards Seimei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The angle of this kunai strike was intended to both stop Seimei from approaching the affected Iwa ninja and force him to defend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, Seimei didn't act according to his intentions at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He swung his sword, blocking the kunai attack, and at the same time, used the Illusion Sword Technique, causing the Iwa-nin Jonin to fall into a momentary daze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And seizing this opportunity, he condensed a light blue, high-density chakra ball in the palm of his left hand - the Rasengan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he extended his left palm, and the Rasengan directly pressed against the Iwa-nin Jonin who was frozen in place by his Genjutsu: Sharingan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Seimei's movement, the Iwa-nin Jonin, who had just recovered from the Illusion Sword Technique, didn't have time to think and immediately swung his kunai again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, he was a step too late.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn't until Seimei pressed the Rasengan onto that person that his kunai barely touched Seimei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Rasengan made contact and then separated. Seimei's body retreated, avoiding most of the damage, only leaving a cut on his chest from the kunai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Boom* *Boom*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two ninjutsu attacks smashed over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei tapped the ground with both feet, his figure flashing, dodging the attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first exchange between the two sides ended here. Seimei severely injured an Iwa-nin Jonin at the cost of a kunai cut on his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's right, severely injured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although his Rasengan only made brief contact, the swirling and twisting force contained within it had already invaded the opponent's body, causing severe internal injuries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the subsequent battle, he probably wouldn't be of much use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, the Iwa side had lost one person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kurokawa Ichiro, although displeased with this result, wasn't too disappointed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Seimei was also not lightly injured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, his gaze towards Seimei froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He saw Seimei quickly forming hand seals with both hands, using some unknown ninjutsu to infuse a mass of green chakra into his body, and the bleeding stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only that, but the injury on his chest also began to heal. Although the speed wasn't very fast, it wasn't slow either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this rate, it would probably heal in a few minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This made Kurokawa Ichiro's face completely darken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one would be happy to see their own side severely injured while the enemy was alive and kicking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of this chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1240,"2026-06-06T03:30:41.618Z",1,"novelbin.me","8249fe805a8e3ea83e940e4f3109cf8e662ba50abd6a0c979ded98c6474f1341","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-262","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-260",1097,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgrind-is-my-ninja-way-cover.jpg"]
