The Sharingan Gamer

After a round of slaughter, aside from the Kaguya clan ninja who were still fighting to the death, the other Mist ninja were gradually showing signs of retreat.

It was clear from the beginning of the battle that their side was inferior in both high-end combat power and overall strength. To continue fighting would be to throw their lives away. They were not like those lunatics who would rush forward to their deaths.

It had to be said that although the Mist's individual skills and high-end power were stronger than the Sand's, their unit cohesion was no match for the Sand. If this were the southwest battlefield, the enemy would never have so easily abandoned their fighting comrades to retreat.

But as mentioned before, because the Mist forces had advanced too aggressively, it was not an easy task for them to retreat now.

With another slash, he killed an enemy. Kyosuke didn't even turn his head as he ordered, "Shift your attack target. Prioritize eliminating the fleeing enemies."

"Yes, sir," a ninja not far behind him replied, and immediately went to relay Kyosuke's battle command.

Now that the battle is firmly in my hands, next...

Kyosuke looked at Kaguya Gentetsu, who was slowly retreating in the distance, and the Kaguya clan, who were still fighting a bloody battle. "It's your turn."

At this time, in the commander's tent of the Eastern Army, Kiyoshi Mitarashi was listening to his subordinate's report.

"A message from the third battlefield. We have successfully suppressed the enemy. The enemy leader, Kaguya Gentetsu, has been heavily wounded by Commander Kyosuke."

Seeing that the situation was proceeding as smoothly as he had predicted, Kiyoshi couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.

"Excellent. Kyosuke did not disappoint me. As long as we can take down the Kaguya clan, the rest of the battle will be much smoother."

Just as Kiyoshi was beginning to think about the future of the battle, a person rushed into his tent in a panic.

"Report! According to the reconnaissance unit, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist are heading toward the third battlefield."

"What?!" Hearing his subordinate's report, the excited expression on Kiyoshi's face instantly froze.

Damn it, of all times, Kiyoshi paced around for a few turns, then gritted his teeth and said loudly, "Give the order! Gather all the ninja on standby and follow me to support the third battlefield."

"Yes, sir."

Clang! A few Kaguya clan ninja deflected the incoming shuriken. After a slight hesitation, they charged at the powerful enemy in front of them with ferocious expressions.

However, the huge gap in their strength would not be diminished by their courage.

With one sword strike, he beheaded the enemy in front of him. Kyosuke raised his hand and released a ferocious fire dragon.

"Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique."

Boom!

Although this fire-style jutsu did not annihilate all the enemies in one go, it had successfully disrupted their formation. Now, they posed even less of a threat to Kyosuke.

Just as the scattered and dodging Kaguya clan were preparing to regroup, a series of afterimages suddenly appeared before their eyes.

"Body Flicker Technique: Afterimage Kill."

"Everyone, be careful! This is not an ordinary clone! This is— ugh..." a male Kaguya clan member said, watching as his kunai passed through the afterimage in front of him. Just as he was trying to warn his comrades, the afterimage unexpectedly raised its hand and stabbed him with a sword, stopping his words in his throat.

What in the world is this thing... With this question in his mind, the man slowly collapsed to the ground.

In less than three minutes, all the enemies standing in front of Kyosuke had been slaughtered by him.

Looking at the enraged but helpless Kaguya Gentetsu, several poisonous snakes suddenly shot out from Kyosuke's sleeve, tying him up and bringing him before him.

"Tell me what you know, and I might spare your life," Kyosuke said with a blank expression.

"Cough, cough, hahahaha." To his surprise, Kaguya Gentetsu showed no fear in the face of his threat. Instead, he burst out laughing.

While laughing, he said to Kyosuke with a mocking tone, "Do you think... this war is over just like that?"

Seeing that he was still being stubborn, Kyosuke directly grabbed his head and forced him to look around.

"All the members of your Kaguya clan will die here, just like you, their clan head," Kyosuke said in a calm voice, stating a very extraordinary thing.

"Die?!" Kaguya Gentetsu muttered, then burst into laughter again. "Our Kaguya clan has no cowards who fear death! So what if we die? Besides..."

A strange light flashed in his eyes. He ignored the force of Kyosuke's hand and forcibly twisted his head around to face him, sneering, "Did you think... that after seeing your reinforcements appear, I did nothing?"

"Pah! You dog of Konoha, just wait here to die! Hahahaha."

Kyosuke tilted his head to dodge his spit attack. Looking at the latter's unrestrained behavior, he said coldly, "You like to turn your head, don't you? I'll let you turn it as much as you want."

Crack!

With a sickening crunch, Kaguya Gentetsu's head was directly twisted three hundred and sixty degrees by Kyosuke.

Waving his hand to throw down his corpse, and ignoring the system's notification of 84 experience points, Kyosuke began to think about his words just now.

The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist... He didn't have to think too hard. The only reinforcements the Mist could send now were those seven.

He turned to look at the enemy, who had been completely suppressed. He waved his hand and added the more than 100 experience points he had just gained to his "Swordsmanship Training," then found a safe place and sat down cross-legged, preparing to replenish his consumed senjutsu chakra.

Since he was going to fight the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, it was necessary to further improve his close-combat skills. His swordsmanship, which was only one level away from being maxed out, would surely give the enemy a surprise.

Another fifteen minutes passed. Just as Kyosuke had re-gathered his senjutsu chakra and stored it in his curse mark, the figures of the Seven Swordsmen finally appeared on the battlefield.

"Hey, hey, no way. How did the situation get like this? Kaguya Gentetsu really is a waste," Jūzō Biwa, who was carrying the Executioner's Blade on his back, said, looking at the Mist forces that were being gradually devoured.

"Stop your whining and get down there to help," Kushimaru Kuriarare, who was holding the long sword Nuibari, said, cutting him off. Without waiting for a response, he charged down.

"Tch, one day I'm going to kill you with my own hands, you bastard," Jūzō Biwa grumbled, at the same time, he also charged toward another battlefield. He had no desire to fight alongside that cold-blooded pervert.

The remaining five exchanged a look, and then they also charged toward different battlefields.

"Long black hair, thick eyebrows, his upper body wrapped in bandages and a black vest... that's right, this person is the user of the 'Lightning Sword: Kiba,' Raiga Kurosuki."

"The enemy has reinforcements! It's the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist! Quick, report to the commander!" a ninja from Kyosuke's legion shouted, his voice hoarse after seeing the newcomer's appearance.

Then, he quietly made a hand signal, and then he and a few of his comrades charged at the enemy.

A ninja sword that can control lightning. I can't fight him at a distance, the ninja thought, recalling the information about him. He and his comrades charged forward together.

Seeing the enemy charge, Raiga Kurosuki sneered. A flash of lightning shot from his blade, and then he appeared in front of the few of them.

"Lightning Sword Technique: Lightning Flash."

Except for the leading ninja who had luckily dodged this fatal attack, the others all died under the lightning sword.

Just as the ninja was preparing to use a ninjutsu to buy some time, he suddenly found that his arm was a little disobedient.

Is this... paralysis from being grazed by the lightning just now? Damn it...

Raiga Kurosuki looked at his "trembling" appearance and said in a very cold tone, "You're lucky to have dodged my attack, but I wonder if that luck will continue to protect you?"

After trying to form hand seals to no avail, the ninja looked at the approaching enemy, a sense of despair rising in his heart.

But at least I've delayed him for a while. This should be enough time for the commander to react, he thought, a somewhat relieved smile on his face. He then took a deep breath, preparing to meet his death.

Just then, he suddenly heard a slight whoosh beside his ear. Then, a wave of heat made him subconsciously look.

As flames and lightning danced wildly, Kyosuke's side profile also entered his vision.

"Fall back. He is not an opponent you can handle," a calm voice finally woke him from his mixed emotions of confusion and surprise.

"Lord... Lord Kyosuke..." he cried out. Then, as if remembering something, he quickly retreated to the side.

Seeing his subordinate retreat, Kyosuke's free left hand quickly completed a series of hand seals.

"Fire Release: Hidden in Ash and Dust Technique."

A large amount of high-temperature smoke spewed from Kyosuke's mouth, and in an instant, it had spread to a radius of several tens of meters.

"So hot, you damn brat," Raiga Kurosuki said, covering his mouth with his hand to prevent inhaling too much dust. At the same time, his free hand raised the lightning sword and pointed it at the sky above him.

A bright flash of lightning shot from the blade and then quickly rushed into the sky.

"Lightning Release: Thunder Gate."

Dark clouds quickly gathered in the sky, and then a series of lightning bolts suddenly struck down into the thick smoke.

After a long while, the smoke dissipated, but Raiga Kurosuki found that the enemy's figure had disappeared from before him.

Did he run away? he thought, carefully observing the surrounding situation with a puzzled expression.

Suddenly, a slight sound came from the ground beneath his feet. Then, a massive shuriken shot out from the earth and attacked him.

Startled, Raiga Kurosuki couldn't help but leap backward with all his might. His nose almost grazed the edge of the shuriken as he dodged the attack.

Before he could let out a sigh of relief, the shuriken disappeared with a poof, and in its place were Kyosuke's eyes, filled with killing intent.

Raiga Kurosuki subconsciously looked up at him, and then his body instantly stiffened.

"Genjutsu: Sharingan."
