Chapter 22: The Terrifying Uchiha Izumi
“Spirit Pavilion? 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkIVjCYI9f
Tch~”
Ringo Ameyuri sneered the moment she heard it.
Her rows of sharp, snow-white fangs looked exceptionally creepy.
“While I’m really grateful for your medicine… 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbTnYFRC8kO
But! 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuY45DZbVhT
I have zero interest in joining some random no-name organization I’ve never even heard of!”
“Are you refusing?”
Izumi slightly raised her head.
The Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan opened in an instant.
She just stared coldly at Ringo Ameyuri like that.
“Your eyes… 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNTO822CK2
Sharingan? 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPusDf9PK2
No! 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsQb5kZdfr
This isn’t an ordinary Sharingan!”
The moment she was stared at by those eyes, Ringo Ameyuri felt the aura of death wrap around her.
Right now… 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66YCLWdi4S
The person in front of her didn’t feel like a thirteen-year-old girl at all.
She felt like a terrifying tailed beast!
“Join the organization. 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8z3ilR8auY
You can obtain power no weaker than mine. 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpOJMolFIl
Refuse… and die.”
Izumi kept staring at her silently, flatly reciting the threat exactly as it was written on Byakuya’s mission card.
“Uh…”
Ringo Ameyuri froze.
She was indeed very strong.
But… 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL85TKFqq6s
She was still completely suppressed by the terrifying pressure radiating from Izumi.
“Is this… genjutsu?”
She saw a vision of her own death.
At the same time, her entire body felt stiff—she didn’t even dare to move a finger.
“No… 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyun5ySBcw
This is pure intimidation… 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBeUwbOphX
This woman… 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbubPiaeSvk
She’s terrifying… 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjzl4uFAFO
Probably even more terrifying than that Uchiha who once controlled the Fourth Mizukage!”
“The village is so cold-blooded anyway. You might as well join us.”
Izumi suddenly deactivated her Sharingan.
Then she gave a small smile, her eyes curving into gentle crescent moons.
Very softly and peacefully, she said:
“Look. 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6cpiMpS6Q
You’re already dying from a terminal illness… 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxPkfRBKq3
And yet not a single person has come to visit you~”
“You’re… not wrong~”
Ringo Ameyuri had never felt much attachment to Kirigakure anyway.
Seeing Izumi’s smile, she unexpectedly felt herself being influenced by it.
“Fine then. I’ll join you guys! 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DtZkHOtr7
That way I can gain power… 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxlkiRm4ec
And also live a much more thrilling life~ 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7FT6Yxej4
Sounds pretty good to me.”
“In that case… welcome aboard.”
Izumi smiled and nodded.
“I’ll take you back to see the Holy Master.”
“Then how are we supposed to leave the village?”
Ringo Ameyuri’s face showed an interested expression.
“You should know—our Kirigakure has very tight security. 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb95SX7q7m1
I don’t even know how you got in… 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLuN5t8bXO
But taking me out won’t be that easy.”
“Leave?”
Izumi suddenly laughed.
She still remembered when she once asked Byakuya what the organization’s style of doing things was. 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapTbhFEKvP
Should they keep a low profile outside? Stay hidden?
But Byakuya’s answer had only been one sentence—
“Everything is centered around the mission. When there’s no mission… just go wild. The organization fears no one.”
“Throw away your forehead protector. 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuxEt52TBR
From now on, you won’t be needing that thing anymore.”
After saying that, Izumi simply kicked the wall of the room.
Boom——
A huge hole appeared.
“Let’s go. 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjON2YETrO8
First we’ll get your Thunder Blade back.”
Ringo Ameyuri was stunned.
“So… so reckless?!”
But just a few seconds later, she became excited.
“I’m starting to like this organization!”
She casually tossed her forehead protector aside.
Then quickly followed after Izumi.
The two of them jumped straight down through the massive hole in the wall.
Then, as if no one else existed, they slowly strolled toward the Mizukage Building.
“Who are you! 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKMBoIjctb
Stop right there!”
“Ringo Ameyuri? 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDNaA81eY9
What are you doing? 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4SIaCyXmw
Who’s the person in front of you?”
“Stop immediately and submit to questioning!”
…
They hadn’t even walked far before a group of Anbu suddenly appeared.
They flanked the two girls, cautiously on high alert.
“Where is the Thunder Blade – Kiba?”
Izumi asked the Anbu while continuing to walk forward.
She didn’t bother answering any of their questions.
“What do you think you’re doing!?”
“Stop right now!”
“Ringo Ameyuri, stop immediately or you will be treated as a missing-nin!”
The Anbu were all confused, completely unable to understand what these two girls were trying to do.
When Izumi saw they weren’t going to answer her question, she also stopped asking.
She continued walking toward the Mizukage Building as if nothing had happened.
Seeing how brazen she was, the Anbu finally couldn’t hold back anymore.
In an instant, countless hidden weapons flew toward the two girls.
The corners of Izumi’s mouth curled into a faint, cold smile.
She pulled her bamboo hat lower.
At the same time, she activated her Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.
While whistling a carefree tune, she continued walking slowly forward.
A single senbon shot out from her ninja pouch.
Accompanied by the cheerful whistling, the senbon danced beautifully through the air.
Every hidden weapon that flew toward them was precisely knocked away.
The clear “ding ding” sounds of metal clashing mixed perfectly with the whistling melody.
It formed a strangely harmonious song.
This was the ability of Izumi’s left Mangekyō Sharingan—— 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVWhJem3sU
Control of ninja tools.
“So… so cool!!”
Although Ringo Ameyuri was very strong, she was still just a thirteen-year-old girl at heart.
Seeing Izumi look so overwhelmingly powerful… 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVjmro5QyW
She genuinely felt admiration and longing.
However, the other Kirigakure Anbu were completely enraged.
While throwing hidden weapons, they also started using explosive tags, Water Release techniques, smoke bombs—everything they had.
Izumi’s brows slightly furrowed.
She raised the pitch of her whistle just a little.
Instantly.
The aura of the dancing senbon changed.
From gentle elegance… 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsCUVbmqwi
It turned into a murderous, bloodthirsty storm.
Every time they spun, they drew a spray of blood.
Though they didn’t kill anyone, they made the already misty Kirigakure feel even more eerie and sinister.
The Anbu had barely gotten close before they were all wounded by the senbon, unable to continue attacking.
“Who is it?!”
A sudden stern shout rang out.
The thick fog dispersed.
A beautiful woman appeared before the two girls.
She wore a blue tube-top dress.
Her reddish-brown hair was tied in a long, criss-crossed ponytail that looked almost like a pine tree.
Her appearance was strangely beautiful… yet filled with murderous intent.
“What do you two think you’re doing?”
“Hand over the Thunder Blade – Kiba. 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zDn9lT3ty
I’m taking Ringo Ameyuri with me.”
“Hahahahaha!”
The Fifth Mizukage, Terumī Mei, was so angry she actually laughed.
“Then die!”
Mei’s hands flew through hand seals at incredible speed.
A massive Lava Release: Melting Apparition Technique was spat directly toward them.
“Hmph~”
Izumi gave a cold snort.
In the next instant——
The third form of Susanoo appeared!
Not only did it perfectly block Mei’s attack, but it also reached out and grabbed the Mizukage in one hand.
The Mizukage of Kirigakure… couldn’t even dodge!
“This woman seems to be one of Kirigakure’s higher-ups, right? 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5abMTJgLe4
If no one tells me where the Thunder Blade is… 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkslRXWYbuw
Then I’ll just take her with me.”
Listening to Izumi’s calm and indifferent voice, 7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iDOhev0Qg
the entire Kirigakure Village… fell deathly silent.
