Chapter 697: Teaching in the Hidden Leaf, the System Says I

Kitazawa couldn't help but let out a light "huh."

This mission came unexpectedly.

Ringo Ameyuri was one of the second generation of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, and the sword she inherited was indeed Kurosuki Raiga's Lightning Blade: Kiba.

Kitazawa was thoughtful.

Judging by the description of the system mission, Ringo Ameyuri had participated in this war to take back the Lightning Blade: Kiba.

And since the Lightning Blade: Kiba was in his hands, he had become her target.

Kitazawa recalled.

In the original story, Ringo Ameyuri was a genius in swordsmanship and Lightning Style, with strength no worse than Kurosuki Raiga's.

But regardless, the moment he saw the mission reward, Kitazawa knew that even Jesus couldn't keep her.

The four of them left the sentry post and arrived at the seaside.

A moment later, they saw two large ships slowly sailing toward them.

"Did Itachi notify them?"

Standing at the bow of the ship was a young girl.

She had long, brownish-red hair in vertical braids, and she revealed sharp teeth when she spoke.

It was none other than Ringo Ameyuri.

"No."

The middle-aged ninja standing to her left replied: "They must have seen our ship in advance, so they came out to welcome us."

"Don't worry, this is our deep rear."

The young woman on the right said very confidently: "It's impossible for there to be Hidden Leaf Village ninja."

"That's true."

Ringo Ameyuri raised her hand and said: "Dock, rest for two hours."

The two ships stopped.

Ringo Ameyuri and the others all jumped down.

"Lord Ameyuri."

Kitazawa stepped forward and greeted the three jonin one by one.

He actually only knew Ringo Ameyuri.

Although the remaining middle-aged ninja and young woman were jonin, he didn't know them.

But thanks to the Disguise Jutsu, he naturally knew them.

"We have already prepared lunch in the sentry post."

Kitazawa raised his hand and said: "Three lords, please."

"Everyone else, eat where Itachi are."

Ringo Ameyuri shouted, then followed Kitazawa with the other two jonin.

They soon arrived at the sentry post.

"Three lords, please go first."

Kitazawa stopped and said respectfully.

Ringo Ameyuri nodded and, without thinking much, walked toward the sentry post.

"Why do I smell a strange odor?"

Just then, the middle-aged ninja suddenly spoke.

"Odor?"

Ringo Ameyuri took a deep breath, her tone changed, and she shouted urgently: "It's explosive tags!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the entire sentry post erupted like a volcano, with a massive amount of flames spreading in all directions.

In the blink of an eye, they were covered by a sea of fire.

"Dodge, quickly!"

Ringo Ameyuri disappeared from where she was with a Body Flicker Jutsu.

The middle-aged ninja's reaction wasn't bad either; he immediately performed hand seals, spraying high-pressure water from his mouth to extinguish the flames around him.

Only the young woman had been standing closest, facing the explosive tags directly, and was blown away.

Although she didn't die, the left half of her body was completely charred black.

"Ahhh!"

The young woman clutched her shoulder and screamed.

With the commotion caused by the explosive tags, the other Hidden Mist ninja's expressions changed drastically, and they all gave up cooking and rushed toward them.

"Attack!"

Yakushi Kabuto gave the order, and the other three took action.

Fire Style: Majestic Destroyer Flame!

Uchiha Izumi leaned back, and flames surged out, forming a sea of fire in front of her.

The Hidden Mist ninja rushing up hurriedly came to a sudden stop.

Strength of a Hundred!

Yuhi Kurenai flashed in front of the nearest Hidden Mist ninja.

She threw a punch.

The Hidden Mist ninja subconsciously kicked out.

With a snap.

His right leg shattered instantly, and he flew out screaming.

Secret Technique: Poison Dust Jutsu!

Aburame Torune hid in the dark and clapped his hands.

A large amount of Nano-sized Poisonous Insects flew out, taking advantage of the sea of fire attracting the Hidden Mist ninja's attention.

The melee began.

"I need an explanation!"

Ringo Ameyuri said with a gloomy expression.

The middle-aged ninja and she surrounded Kitazawa from the left and right.

Yakushi Kabuto lunged forward, forming a standoff with them.

"Because we are Hidden Leaf Village ninja."

Kitazawa dispelled the Disguise Jutsu and said with a smile.

"Itachi are... Kitazawa?"

Ringo Ameyuri looked him up and down and suddenly became excited.

"Itachi know me?"

Kitazawa raised an eyebrow, feeling surprised.

He didn't remember meeting Ringo Ameyuri.

"Your physical features have already spread throughout the Hidden Mist Village over the past two days."

Ringo Ameyuri replied.

Kitazawa had demonstrated powerful strength on the night he raided the Hidden Mist outpost.

The surviving Hidden Mist ninja had drawn his portrait.

Under Ao's promotion, Kitazawa's file soon spread throughout the Hidden Mist Village.

In fact, this was standard practice for all major ninja villages.

The Hidden Leaf Village had also set Hoshigaki Kisame as a key target based on Kitazawa's report.

"Hand over the Lightning Blade: Kiba, and I can leave Itachi a whole corpse!"

Ringo Ameyuri licked the corner of her mouth and said unceremoniously.

"Ameyuri, don't take him lightly; he killed Raiga after all."

The middle-aged ninja reminded her.

"Hmph, if it weren't for him being a few years older than me, the Lightning Blade: Kiba should have been mine!"

Ringo Ameyuri said with disdain.

"Pride is indeed a common problem for geniuses."

Kitazawa took out Raijin and said lightly: "This is the reforged Lightning Blade: Kiba; if Itachi have the ability, come and take it."

"Very good!"

Ringo Ameyuri drew her ninja sword and arrived in front of Kitazawa in an instant.

The middle-aged ninja wanted to help but was blocked by Yakushi Kabuto.

He could only shout: "Watch out for his Water Style!"

Uchiha Style: Gale Sword!

Kitazawa immediately appeared behind Ringo Ameyuri.

The blade of Raijin shuddered, and a dazzling blade of fire flew out directly.

Ringo Ameyuri's expression changed slightly, but she reacted quickly.

Brilliant lightning surged from her ninja sword.

She turned around and slashed with one strike.

The blade of fire collided with the lightning blade, and in an instant, sparks and lightning flew everywhere.

Kitazawa pressed down hard.

Ringo Ameyuri immediately retreated.

Wherever she passed, deep footprints were left on the ground.

She finally realized that Kitazawa killing Kurosuki Raiga wasn't just luck.

But Ringo Ameyuri was still very confident.

She turned her wrist, and her ninja sword shone brightly with lightning, and three lightning bolts like spears rushed toward Kitazawa along the blade.

Heavenly Foot of Pain!

Kitazawa stomped down.

The ground cracked instantly, and the immense force sent mud and gravel splashing in all directions.

Ringo Ameyuri's heart shook, and she hurriedly retracted her sword and fled.

Leaf Body Flicker Jutsu!

Kitazawa transformed into leaves and avoided the three lightning bolts.

In mid-air, he raised Raijin.

Lightning Style: Thunder Strike!

A thunderbolt fell from the sky.

"Damn bastard!"

Ringo Ameyuri was very unhappy to see Kitazawa using the Lightning Blade: Kiba against her.

Lightning Style: Explosive Thunder!
