Water Style: Hiding in Mist Technique!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the battle just now, some Kirigakure Tokubetsu Jonin had tried to use this technique to obscure his vision, but he quickly locked onto their positions and forcibly killed them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, the ninjutsu was naturally broken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei's Sharingan spun rapidly, his gaze sweeping back and forth, but he couldn't find the caster's location.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obviously, the caster wasn't one of the Kirigakure Tokubetsu Jonin present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, there was only one answer: other Kirigakure ninjas had come to support.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And they were hiding in the dark, completing the casting of the ninjutsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the surrounding white mist and feeling the prying eyes in the mist, Seimei sneered and raised his hands to form seals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at this moment, several kunai shot towards him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei had no choice but to temporarily stop forming seals and dodge the kunai attacks with a few flashes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a violent explosion sounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It turned out that among those kunai, there were also hidden explosive tags.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A burst of flames appeared, and the shockwave from the explosion of the explosive tags instantly cleared a large area in the white mist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the dense fog was like a living thing, quickly gathering and filling the area again in the blink of an eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only that, but the movement he made while dodging the kunai allowed the Kirigakure Tokubetsu Jonin to lock onto his position again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, a dense rain of kunai shot towards him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei's ears twitched slightly, and he quickly locked onto the approximate location of these kunai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, because of the dense fog, he couldn't immediately determine whether these kunai, like the ones just now, carried explosive tags.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, he could only dodge first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, as soon as his feet landed, another wave of attacks came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obviously, among these Kirigakure Tokubetsu Jonin, someone was proficient in the 'Silent Killing Technique' and could accurately lock onto his position in this environment through subtle movements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, the attacks wouldn't have come so quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Seimei roughly guessed their intention, which was nothing more than to exhaust him through continuous attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, they would wait for an opportunity to launch a fatal blow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had to be said that this method was quite good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the saying went, \"There is no defense that cannot be broken.\" If he kept dodging passively like this, he would eventually reveal a flaw, and that would be the enemy's chance to strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the question was, could the opponent keep suppressing him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The answer was obviously no.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After dodging two waves of attacks in a row, Seimei jumped onto a nearby tree, thus dodging the third wave of attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing on a branch, his hands formed seals rapidly, and before the fourth wave of attacks arrived, he used the ninjutsu - Wind Style: Great Breakthrough!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took a deep breath, then exhaled forcefully. First, a whirlwind appeared, then this whirlwind rapidly expanded, enveloping an area of over ten meters in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the attacks of those Kirigakure ninjas were swept away by this whirlwind before they could get close to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing the slight changes at the edge of the storm, Seimei sneered, then ignored it and directly controlled the storm to rapidly spread in all directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were in the past, even if he had practiced the 'Wind Style: Great Breakthrough' to the perfect level, he might not be able to control the storm so precisely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, with the 'Wind Style: Wind Blade' upgraded to lv6, he had a deeper understanding of the shape and nature transformation of Wind attribute chakra.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, he could achieve this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was like how other people's 'Water Style: Water Wall' could only protect one direction, but Senju Tobirama could protect all sides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, it was just a matter of proficiency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And as Seimei's 'Wind Style: Great Breakthrough' was unleashed, the surrounding white mist was instantly blown away like scattered clouds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though several Kirigakure ninjas continuously released Water Style chakra during this time, trying to maintain the dense fog, they couldn't succeed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this was also normal. This time, in order to achieve success in one strike, Seimei had consumed 2,000 chakra points at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, the 'Wind Style: Great Breakthrough' he unleashed was at a natural disaster level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coupled with the elemental advantage, it was normal that they couldn't maintain it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few breaths later, the dense fog disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei looked at the dozen or so Kirigakure ninjas squatting or standing on the surrounding ground and tree branches, a contemptuous smile appearing on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, he didn't forget to provoke them: \"The mere Blood Mist Village... is nothing more than this!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, these Kirigakure ninjas, whether they were Tokubetsu Jonin or Chunin, were all elites.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one impulsively launched an attack because of his deliberately contemptuous smile or provocative words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei felt a little regretful about this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, it was just a little regret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he couldn't provoke them to attack first, he would take the initiative himself!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this thought in mind, Seimei flashed and appeared in front of a Kirigakure Chunin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The short sword in his hand swung out, aiming straight for the opponent's neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, before his short sword could fully swing out, several shuriken flew over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei glanced from the corner of his eye and took half a step back, easily avoiding the attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, because of this, the Kirigakure Chunin in front of him finally reacted and hurriedly threw a smoke bomb before retreating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Seimei didn't pursue. Instead, he used another 'Body Flicker Technique' and attacked another Kirigakure Chunin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, when they were besieging him, there were no Chunin. Now that there were Chunin, he didn't mind picking the softer persimmons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although this might be the reason why those Kirigakure Jonin called these Chunin over, he didn't care. Anyway, these people were all his targets, and the order didn't matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of this chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1222,"2026-06-06T03:30:41.618Z",1,"novelbin.me","60306135db48ce23dbec25e2b0d646bdeea2cce27ffaabce785254b7477f09b0","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-289","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-287",1097,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgrind-is-my-ninja-way-cover.jpg"]
