Chapter 1067
Kurotsuchi and the other four quickly closed in on Su Xiao, but the battlefield was nearly packed with people, and they could be attacked by the enemy at any time. There was only one way to advance on the battlefield, and that was to kill—to carve out a bloody path.
Yellow sand splashed as Su Xiao's legs sank into it, surrounded by several ninjas with faces full of astonishment.
"Kill him..."
Clang!
A circular blade aura spread out. Before that ninja could even react to what was happening, he felt a chill in his chest, and as his perspective tilted, it rapidly lowered.
With a thud, the upper body of this ninja, who had been slashed across the chest, hit the ground, and he began to wail.
Three seconds after Su Xiao entered the battlefield, a large chorus of wailing appeared around him, and he pulled his feet out of the yellow sand.
"A long-lost feeling."
Dozens of Repel Shields appeared around Su Xiao.
Ding.
Sparks flew as a kunai got stuck in the gap of a Repel Shield. Su Xiao controlled the Repel Shield to open, and before the kunai could hit the ground, he kicked the ring at the end of the kunai.
Bang.
A whistling sound spread out, and just 0.5 seconds later, the kunai returned into its owner's throat, piercing straight through.
Checking Zhan Long Shan flipped in Su Xiao's hand, and he lowered his body, dodging a shuriken flying from behind.
With a squelch, Checking Zhan Long Shan pierced through the skull of a ninja behind Su Xiao.
Su Xiao's palm turned, changing from a reverse grip to a forward grip, the long blade still piercing the ninja's skull.
He swung his right arm, and the corpse on the tip of the blade was flung away. Su Xiao crouched low, hiding behind that corpse.
Squelch.
As he slashed through the corpse, another ninja had his throat cut. He clutched his spurting throat with both hands and fell to his knees with a thud.
Su Xiao pulled with his left arm, and a cyan metal wire tightened, severing the calves of two ninjas.
Su Xiao slashed forward with the long blade in his hand, and as a head flew up, he suddenly jumped.
With a boom, an earth pillar rose from beneath his feet.
Su Xiao arched his left arm and smashed his elbow backward.
With a crack, the skull of the ninja who had previously had his legs severed by the Boundary Line was shattered.
Just as Su Xiao landed, three kunai flew toward him. He waved his arm, and three Repel Shields moved forward, deflecting the three kunai.
The Hunter's Gun appeared in Su Xiao's hand, and his pupils contracted slightly.
Bang, bang, bang...
All five bullets in the gun were fired, hitting the heads, chests, backs, and collarbones of five Chunin or Genin respectively.
Su Xiao detonated the explosive needles.
With a boom, flesh and blood splattered. Su Xiao's trench coat was blown, and drops of blood splashed onto his cheeks.
Blood dripped from the tip of Checking Zhan Long Shan, and there were no living people left within ten meters of Su Xiao.
The surrounding ninjas all witnessed this scene; although they felt fear, they still rushed forward.
Blade light flashed, and any ninja who entered within five meters of Su Xiao fell in an instant; they were all Genin, with a small number of Chunin.
These people were called the vanguard, but in reality, they were just cannon fodder.
The drawback of ninjas participating in war appeared: unless Su Xiao killed all the surrounding ninjas, they could not use ninjutsu to attack him, as most ninjutsu were medium-range area-of-effect abilities, and using them in this situation would definitely injure friendly forces.
As for using taijutsu for close combat, don't joke around; even Kage-level fighters would die in close combat with Su Xiao, let alone these Genin or Chunin.
Chunin couldn't even block one of Su Xiao's slashes, and Genin were just here to die.
Thirty seconds after Su Xiao entered the battlefield, a pile of corpses appeared at his feet; undoubtedly, piles of corpses were extremely rare in the Naruto World unless someone deliberately stacked them.
Su Xiao stood on the pile of corpses, and after killing a ninja with his long blade, he immediately lowered his center of gravity.
"Ha."
A low shout came, and at the same time, a fair palm struck toward Su Xiao, the palm wrapped in a beast's head formed by chakra.
Bang.
The fair palm struck the Repel Shield, and the pile of corpses under Su Xiao's feet tilted slightly. He glanced sideways at the person who had come; it was Hinata Hyuga.
Seeing her intact right arm, Su Xiao was somewhat puzzled, but upon seeing the glove on her hand, he guessed what was going on.
"Gentle Fist Art: Eight..."
Hinata, standing on the pile of corpses, felt a chill; she had witnessed the gradual formation of this pile of corpses with her own eyes.
"Lime Condensation Technique."
Just as Su Xiao wanted to swing his blade at Hinata, a large amount of black mud surged from high above.
Su Xiao knew what this was; it was a substance similar to cement. Once hit, he would be trapped in the cement in a short time. It was fine in the past, but now, in the middle of a chaotic battlefield, he absolutely could not lose his mobility.
Su Xiao changed his blade-swinging posture, switching to smashing the hilt of his blade toward Hinata's throat. If this hit, the damage caused would be little different from severing Hinata's throat.
Hinata was indeed no match for Su Xiao, but she wasn't so weak that she would be killed instantly; she immediately leaned her body backward.
The hilt in Su Xiao's hand suddenly changed its attack trajectory, smashing toward Hinata's chest.
With a crack, Hinata's ribs broke upon impact, and her heart stopped for an instant due to the sudden heavy blow.
Before Hinata could fly away, Su Xiao grabbed her collar with one hand and threw her high into the air, and a large amount of gray mud was scattered by Hinata's impact.
A female ninja was floating in mid-air; it was Kurotsuchi. Flying on the battlefield was a significant advantage, but it also carried high risks. The Bai Jue army's wooden spears were not to be trifled with and could perform anti-air strikes at any time; although their accuracy wasn't great, fortunately, their numbers were high.
Kurotsuchi in mid-air immediately lowered her altitude; she had nearly been turned into a hedgehog earlier.
Kurotsuchi caught Hinata in mid-air and was surprised to find that Hinata was no longer breathing, which puzzled her. Did this elite ninja from Konoha just die like this? This constitution was too weak.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Hinata in Kurotsuchi's arms coughed up drops of blood and resumed breathing. She hadn't died, but rather, after her chest cavity suffered a violent impact, it caused her to be unable to breathe for a short time.
"Don't... get close to him."
Clang.
A blade aura slashed over, and Kurotsuchi in mid-air was terrified.
"Earth Style: Earth Shore Return."
An earth wall rose rapidly, just in time to block in front of Kurotsuchi in mid-air.
With a swish, the earth wall was slashed open, but taking advantage of the moment the blade aura was blocked, Kurotsuchi, floating in mid-air, performed an evasive maneuver.
Kitsuchi, over ten meters away, pressed one hand to the ground, his gaze fixed on Su Xiao.
"Don't think you can continue to act recklessly."
Kitsuchi's meaning was clear: he wanted to gather elite ninjas to surround and kill Su Xiao.
Su Xiao glanced at Kitsuchi. He was very puzzled by this ninja's actions; on a chaotic battlefield, the opponent actually wanted to surround and kill him with just a few people? The opponent seemed to have not yet understood the concept of war.
Unless the surrounding crowd was separated by some ability, Kitsuchi and the others could forget about surrounding and killing Su Xiao.
Su Xiao casually grabbed a severely injured Genin and threw him toward Kitsuchi and the others, then stepped on the ground and killed his way back into the crowd.
Even if the battlefield wasn't packed with people, there wasn't much room to move. Trying to catch up to someone on the battlefield was pure wishful thinking, let alone catching up to Su Xiao, who could instantly carve out a bloody path. As for using large-scale ninjutsu, Kitsuchi didn't dare to do that, as it would injure a large number of ninjas.
Su Xiao's goal wasn't to fight Kitsuchi and the others to the death, but to kill a large number of enemies. When the number of Bai Jue formed an advantage, the enemy would begin to rout, at which point the Bai Jue could cooperate with Su Xiao to besiege Kitsuchi and the others.
If it came to comparing the speed of killing enemies on the battlefield, Su Xiao could definitely rank among the top in the ninja world.
Moreover, Su Xiao had two plans: one was to find an opportunity on the battlefield to kill a Super Kage-level powerhouse—if there was no chance, so be it—and the second plan was to obtain a large amount of World Source, which was to sneak attack the enemy's main base.
