i am kimimaro

In the thick fog, Kimimaro seemed to have a god's perspective, sensing everyone's position with perfect clarity.

Zabuza's Silent Killing Technique was already one of the best in the Hidden Mist.

Thus, Kimimaro had the advantage over these Mist Shinobi.

Five Mist Shinobi lay ahead.

Kimimaro quickly rushed forward, and they immediately reacted.

"What's going on? The Hidden Mist Jutsu doesn't work on this boy from the Kaguya Clan?"

"No idea, just kill him first! How strong could a mere kid be? The five of us Chunin can't take him down?"

"Well said."

"Water Style! Wild Water Wave!"

"Water Style! Water Fang Bullet!"

Water surged from one of the Hidden Mist Chunin's mouths, gushing toward Kimimaro.

Six Water Fang Bullets tore out of the water stream like spiraling drills, heading straight for Kimimaro.

Seeing this, Kimimaro didn't slow down at all; in fact, he sped up.

"Hmph, just another fool courting death."

"As expected, the Kaguya Clan are all reckless brutes."

The Mist Chunin sneered.

But soon, their sneering vanished.

Kimimaro's eyes gleamed like lightning, and he swung the bone swords in both hands, directly slashing at the incoming Water Fang Bullets!

He swung horizontally with his right hand!

The first Water Fang Bullet shattered instantly.

Water splashed as Kimimaro swung his left hand!

A thrusting horizontal slash!

The second Water Fang Bullet dispersed!

He turned his body!

The bone sword in his right hand followed!

A spinning slash!

The third Water Fang Bullet was smashed!

Landing, he bent his knees, and struck out with both swords!

Double horizontal slash!

The fourth Water Fang Bullet broke!

The two swords crossed each other and cut downward!

Cross down slash!

The fifth Water Fang Bullet vanished!

The twin swords pulled back!

Cross upward slash!

The sixth Water Fang Bullet was destroyed!

Six slashes in a row, all completed in one fluid movement!

Kimimaro emerged from the chaos, not a single drop of water on him.

So fast!

The five Chunin were stunned.

What incredible twin-sword techniques.

Not even some Jonin could master this skill, yet it appeared in the hands of a mere boy.

Unbelievable!

"Quick! Kill him!"

The Mist Chunin shouted immediately.

But now, after Kimimaro's series of attacks, not only had his momentum risen, but he had also closed the distance between them.

An advancing downward slash!

Kimimaro slashed down at the first Mist Chunin!

At this moment, carrying the momentum of his consecutive attacks, this slash was fully charged. The Mist Chunin couldn't react in time, and the blade sliced from his left shoulder all the way to his right side of the abdomen.

The sword pierced three inches into his body, and blood splattered!

"Ah!"

The Mist Chunin screamed as Kimimaro's blade was already heading for the next target.

"Bastard!"

The next Mist Chunin cursed, bringing his long blade down!

He was tall, and his attack was full of power.

Kimimaro raised his twin swords in a crossed block!

Clang!

His not yet fully grown frame had no great advantage against an adult shinobi.

The impact of the blow made Kimimaro's hands go numb, almost breaking his offensive momentum.

Without hesitation, Kimimaro released the bone swords from his hands, then even faster, grabbed them in a reverse grip!

His power erupted suddenly!

Reverse blade slash!

The twin swords deflected the tall Mist Shinobi's long blade.

Next, sparks flew from the clash of bone sword and long blade; the latter was pulled upwards, leaving its wielder exposed. Kimimaro's blade slashed upward, slicing through the tall Mist Shinobi's throat!

"Hmm..."

The tall Mist Shinobi's pupils shrank as his strength rapidly drained away.

Eight consecutive slashes!

Each one aimed at a different target.

But that wasn't the end.

Star Burst Stream, sixteen consecutive strikes!

Seeing Kimimaro kill two of them, the remaining three Mist Chunin started to panic.

What was with this Kaguya boy?

Killing Chunin like he was chopping vegetables.

How could his sword be this fast?

Without specialized taijutsu training, it was impossible to withstand.

"Get some distance, use Ninjutsu to deal with him!"

One of the tall, thin Mist Shinobi whispered, and the three of them retreated together. However, Kimimaro was relentless, using Water Body Flicker on the puddle-covered ground with great effect.

Seeing he was about to catch up, there was no time to use Ninjutsu. The tall, thin Mist Shinobi's eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness as he kicked one of his companions in front of him.

Suddenly struck, the Mist Shinobi lost his balance and stumbled toward Kimimaro.

His eyes were full of panic, and even more, fury.

"Bastard!"

He shouted angrily, but the tall, thin Mist Shinobi didn't care at all, his hands already forming seals.

The other chubby Mist Shinobi was also forming seals with his hands.

Neither of them cared about their companion's fate.

Kimimaro was taken aback by this.

He hadn't expected that the Mist Shinobi would have absolutely no camaraderie, willing to betray each other for time.

For a moment, he even felt some pity for this Mist Shinobi.

Surprise was just that; pity was just that. Kimimaro didn't show any mercy.

If he hesitated now, the next one to die would be him.

The bone sword in his right hand swung, ending the life of the stumbling Mist Chunin instantly.

Ninth strike!

The Mist Chunin fell into a pool of blood with unwilling eyes.

To die not because of a strong enemy, but because of being betrayed by a comrade with no hope of survival—this might be the most frustrating way for a shinobi to die.

"Heh, you bought us time, you can be proud of that."

The tall, thin Mist Shinobi laughed coldly, the seals on his hands now complete.

The chubby Mist Shinobi also finished his seals and was the first to shout, "Earth Style! Earth Flow Wall!"

A wall of earth rose, but instead of blocking in front of them, it rose behind Kimimaro, sealing off three of his escape routes from behind and both sides!

This move cut off all possibility of dodging.

And the tall, thin Mist Shinobi spat out a high-pressure stream of water, twenty centimeters in diameter.

"Water Style! Water Colliding Wave!"

The water column shot forward like a high-pressure water cannon, straight at the young shinobi.

With his escape route blocked, Kimimaro had no way to avoid it!

The water column closed in, aimed straight at him!

"Dodge? Hmph! I never planned to dodge!"

Kimimaro roared internally, slashing out with his bone swords at an incredible speed!

Tenth strike!

The blade sliced into the water column.

The immense force of the water column nearly knocked the bone sword from his hand, but Kimimaro held tight, refusing to let go.

His left hand swung the eleventh strike!

With the pressure on his right-hand bone sword slightly relieved, he pulled back and then swung the twelfth strike!

Each strike faster than the last, Kimimaro seemed to truly want to cut the water column apart!

"Faster!"

Kimimaro screamed internally, channeling his chakra fully into his bone swords.

His speed and strength were both intensifying.

"What an idiot, still thinking he can slice through a water flow? With that young body of his, how could he possibly manage it?"

The chubby Mist Shinobi sneered.

But in the next instant, he was stunned.

From within the water column, a flash of eerie white sword light appeared, and the frail figure of the boy charged out!

Fifteenth strike!

"Ah!"

Kimimaro let out a fierce shout, landing with one foot in a puddle, activating the Water Body Flicker once more!

The final strike!

The sixteenth strike!

"Die!"

Whoosh!

In the horrified eyes of the two Mist Shinobi, Kimimaro's bone sword pierced through one of their chests!

Thrust!
