The next mont,
The answer was revealed.
In just an instant, the three stunned and horrified Kumogakure's Jonin fell amidst splattering blood. The blade light that had struck was the Shinigami's slaughter blooming from Sora's hand.
Shunpo.
Slash.
The most simple and unadorned thod of attack, yet in Sora's hands, it possessed a terrifying power that even Elite Jonin could not withstand.
In the blink of an eye,
It was instant kills.
As long as one couldn't match Sora's speed or withstand his Zanpakuto's slash, whether a Jonin or an Elite Jonin, they were just targets to be eliminated in one strike before Sora.
Squelch!
Squelch!
Squelch!
By the ti Sora had killed the three Kumogakure's Jonin and returned to his original spot, the sound of splattering blood only then followed.
It was a speed impossible to describe with words, completely exceeding the so-called limits of a Kage-level Ninja.
Those three Elite Jonin didn't even have the chance to see a blur before their deaths, as Sora eliminated them cleanly and efficiently.
No screams, no terror, no despair. Only the coldest death.
At this mont,
Haku's gaze was sowhat dazed. He looked up at Sora beside him, his eyes flashing with extrely complex emotions.
Petrification, shock, astonishnt, admiration, fanaticism, disbelief…
He had always known Sora was strong, but seeing three enemy Jonin still failing to be a match for him in a single encounter was still utterly shocking.
What a thoroughly satisfying scene!
Every slash was an instant kill, clean and decisive. The simple and clean combat revealed a captivating beauty of power.
It was at this mont that Haku felt an obsessive longing for so-called power.
…
Yuki Clan's Compound.
A disc-shaped black light mbrane suddenly appeared, tearing through space and forming an unbelievable spatial tunnel.
Imdiately after,
Sora, holding the shaken Haku, returned to the compound. He first handed Haku over to the extrely anxious Haruko, then returned to his own residence with a stern expression.
"Was it the Ice Release Kekkei Genkai they were after?"
Sora snorted coldly, "It truly fits the modus operandi of the Yotsuki Clan. But does that Fourth Raikage really think I'm like the aged Sarutobi Hiruzen, willing to swallow insults?"
Retreat?
Concede?
For the greater good?
These were just shabby excuses used by the weak due to insufficient power. In the Ninja World, those with the bigger fists could do as they pleased.
If your code of conduct still relied on so-called strategies and sches, it only ant your power was far from sufficient.
If you reach out your hand, you will be punished.
Moreover, the Yotsuki Clan's reach had grown too long, extending to his family. If he didn't teach Kumogakure a heavy lesson, wouldn't those muscle-headed brutes think he was as weak and powerless as the Third Mizukage, soone easy to bully?
Of course,
Before taking action, Sora first went to the Mizukage Building and summoned Yagura and i, who were preparing to head to the front lines.
"Mizukage-sama!"
In the office, both Yagura and i bowed respectfully to Sora. This was an official setting, so hierarchy and order had to be maintained.
Sora, clad in his white haori, sat at the desk. Behind him, as always, Kurumi stood guard.
As for the two new guards previously selected, Mangetsu and Ayuri, they were still undergoing final special training under igetsu and Fuguki to ensure they could one hundred percent complete the task of guarding the Mizukage.
"This ti…"
"The people from Kumogakure directly targeted Haku-chan?"
i furrowed her delicate brow, clear anger appearing on her face.
"Yes."
Sora nodded. "I went there personally. They used the Heavenly Transfer Technique. Quite a production."
"Quite a production?"
Yagura, however, said through gritted teeth, "I don't think it's 'quite a production'! I think those ambitious scoundrels from Kumogakure have imnse guts! How dare they reach into the village to kidnap soone, and nearly succeeded! It's utterly outrageous! We…"
"We must make Kumogakure pay the price! Make them pay for their arrogance!"
Yagura's face felt burningly hot. As Sora's right-hand man, he had let such a major incident happen right under his nose. It was a huge slap in the face.
"The Karra Island campaign was not the end of the war between the village and Kumogakure. And now, it's ti to draw a close to this war."
Sora spoke with an extrely calm expression, but the killing intent in his words was enough to make the three people present feel a chill run down their spines.
"Draw a close?"
Yagura and i exchanged a glance, both understanding the thought in the other's mind: 'This kidnapping incident involving Haku would not end easily.'
'And…'
'Was Sora going to take action personally?'
