In an instant, he unleashed a jutsu—Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flames spewed from his mouth, rapidly coalescing into a massive fireball that spun furiously as it hurtled forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, in the face of this sudden assault, even though Hoshigaki Kisame was merely a shadow clone, he remained remarkably composed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a swift sidestep, Kisame effortlessly dodged the fireball's attack. His movements were so precise and fluid that it was as if their earlier conversation hadn't affected him at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This alone set him apart from the majority of ninja.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Always vigilant—worthy of being a true ninja!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei sighed inwardly but hesitated not even for a moment. He immediately formed seals again, targeting the evading Kisame with another jutsu—Fire Style: Phoenix Flower Jutsu!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Small fireballs, resembling phoenix flower seeds, erupted from his mouth, shooting toward Kisame in rapid succession, as dense and relentless as bullets from a machine gun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Kisame skillfully dodged each fireball while simultaneously closing the gap between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of a blade unsheathing filled the air. Kisame drew the long sword from his back and charged at Seimei, intending to engage in close combat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, Seimei had no interest in wasting time on a mere shadow clone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stomped hard on the ground, propelling himself backward like a cannonball.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he retreated, he threw a shuriken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, he formed seals mid-air, unleashing a jutsu—Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over the past five days, his relentless hunting spree had yielded over 1.5 million chakra points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He divided this immense chakra reserve into two parts, dedicating them to mastering the Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique and Chakra Cloak, increasing their proficiency by 5,000 and 7,500 points, respectively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the chakra saved from perfecting Earth Style: Earth Flow Wall, Water Style: Water Formation Pillar, and Water Style: Severing Wave, his progress with these techniques skyrocketed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Currently, his Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique had advanced from Lv5 (1830\u002F5000) a month ago to Lv6 (7330\u002F10,000). While it had not yet reached the second qualitative transformation at Lv7, its effectiveness far exceeded that of Lv5.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now unleashed, the technique left Kisame with no room to evade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, Kisame was forced to halt his advance, withdraw his sword, and form seals to unleash Water Style: Water Formation Wall!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Splash~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A towering water wall rose before him, blocking the incoming barrage of shuriken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching his shuriken being deflected by the water wall, Seimei's expression remained calm. With his Sharingan fully activated, he monitored every change in the wall and Kisame's movements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At a critical moment, his eyes gleamed as he thought, Now's the time!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, he unleashed another jutsu—Fire Style: Dragon Flame Jutsu!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flames spewed from his mouth, transforming into three fiery dragons that charged at Kisame in a triangular formation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Kisame's water wall had just dissipated, leaving nothing to block the attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the blink of an eye, demonstrating the skill of an elite ninja, Kisame didn't retreat but instead surged forward, straight toward the fire dragons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the flames were about to engulf him, Kisame stomped the ground and unleashed Earth Style: Subterranean Voyage Jutsu!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, the solid ground beneath him turned into flowing sand, swallowing him whole.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom! Boom! Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three fiery dragons struck the ground, causing massive explosions but failing to harm him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei raised an eyebrow in slight surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing Kisame's presence still moving toward him underground, it was clear the shadow clone hadn't given up its pursuit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei shook his head, swiftly forming seals and targeting Kisame's position. With a loud crack, he unleashed Lightning Style: Thunder Strike!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two dazzling bolts of lightning shot from his palms, striking the ground where Kisame was hiding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's well-known that lightning is the perfect counter to earth style.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, the ground conducts electricity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, the underground shadow clone was obliterated by Seimei's lightning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is the benefit of well-rounded abilities. By accurately analyzing the enemy's techniques, Seimei could launch precise counterattacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, Kisame's shadow clone was no match for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gathering his thoughts, Seimei wasted no time, crossing his hands to unleash another jutsu—Shadow Clone Jutsu!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Poof!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a burst of chakra smoke, four identical figures appeared beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling his nearly overflowing chakra reserves deplete again, Seimei nodded in satisfaction and said to his clones, \"Go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Understood.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The four shadow clones, inheriting his memories, nodded in acknowledgment without unnecessary words. They each activated Wind Style: Wind Wings, taking to the skies and flying off into the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their mission was clear: find secluded areas to absorb their chakra reserves and further refine the Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique and Chakra Cloak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching them disappear into the horizon, Seimei also activated Wind Style: Wind Wings, soaring into the air to continue his training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, he remained vigilant, monitoring the information relayed by his shadow clones on the battlefield and preparing to strike again, stealing chakra from Mist ninja.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, time passed day by day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Week Later\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was now January.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the arrival of the second and third waves of reinforcements, Konoha's advances were unstoppable. In less than half a month, they had reclaimed most of their territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Mist ninja in the Land of Fire had been forced to retreat to four fortified strongholds, with Flying Fish Town being one of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the closest stronghold to Flying Fish Town, Seimei's Black Stone Outpost had fully mobilized and gathered outside the town.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, they had intentionally left one side unblocked—the side facing the sea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This strategy served two purposes:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To prevent the Mist ninja in the town from fighting to the death, as leaving one escape route could minimize resistance. To avoid a pincer attack by the Mist ninja from both the town and the sea, where Mist ninja warships were still active.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lastly, their limited numbers made it impossible to cover every angle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, leaving an open escape route was the optimal choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, this issue would soon be resolved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to the latest reports, Nara Keiko was quickly mobilizing more troops.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once reinforcements arrived, even this last gap could be closed, trapping the Mist ninja in Flying Fish Town like fish in a barrel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Mist ninja, however, weren't about to surrender so easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>read more inpatreon\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>belamy20\u003C\u002Fp>",1067,"2026-06-06T03:30:56.716Z",1,"novelbin.me","2312f57144e6ebab8e94c1ade13fa6dc582de682344c0e52bba475ba7d1bda08","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-583","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-581",1097,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgrind-is-my-ninja-way-cover.jpg"]
