While Seii was observing them, the four Suna-nin were also observing him.
There was no helping it. The Sharingan was so famous in the ninja world.
As soon as he stood there, his three teammates imdiately went into hiding.
After a brief standoff, the thin man, who seed to be the leader of the Suna-nin, spoke, "Sharingan? A ninja from the Uchiha clan?"
Hearing this, Seii imdiately put on an arrogant expression and retorted, "And who are you?"
There was no hint of respect for a Jonin in his tone.
That's right, the thin man in front of him was a Jonin. Whether he was a Tokubetsu Jonin or a full-fledged Jonin, Seii didn't know.
"Hmph! Arrogant!"
Hearing Seii's tone, the thin man snorted coldly and said, "Kid, let
teach you a lesson. The one who will kill you is the Suna Jonin - Sabaku no Kaze!"
As he spoke, he opened his three-star fan and simultaneously ford hand seals, once again using the ninjutsu - Wind Style: Sickle Weasel Technique!
The next mont, a chaotic storm carrying countless vacuum blades blew towards Seii.
Seii narrowed his eyes, and the Sharingan within them spun rapidly.
At the sa ti, he said without turning his head, "I'll handle the Jonin. You three deal with the others."
With that, regardless of whether his three subordinates heard him clearly, he drew the short sword from his waist and charged into the storm.
Although the vacuum blades were invisible and intangible, they always left so traces when they ca into contact with the air.
Ordinary people might find it difficult to detect, but Seii, with his Two Tomoe Sharingan, could clearly observe these traces.
With this, coupled with his lv5 Swordsmanship, even amidst the storm, Seii could still accurately strike those vacuum blades.
Clanging sounds rang out continuously as Seii blocked the attacks of the vacuum blades while rapidly approaching Sabaku no Kaze.
Seeing this, Sabaku no Kaze's pupils constricted. He tightened his grip on the fan, and the three-star fan opened another section, revealing a second spot.
At the sa ti, he quickly ford hand seals, infusing a large amount of wind-style chakra into the fan. Then, with a powerful swing, he shouted, "Wind Style: Great Sickle Weasel Technique!"
The next mont, an even fiercer storm than before swept in, and the vacuum blades within it beca even denser.
However, Seii remained fearless, advancing against the wind, his short sword dancing. Not a single vacuum blade could get within a ter of him.
anwhile, the battle between the other six also began.
However, because the fight here was too intense, they unconsciously shifted the battlefield further away.
Seii glanced over there briefly and didn't see any side having an absolute advantage.
Therefore, the balance of victory ultimately depended on the battle on their side.
With this thought, Seii focused his mind, and his forward charge accelerated.
Seeing this, Sabaku no Kaze didn't hesitate and imdiately fully opened the three-star fan. Then, he started forming hand seals, seemingly preparing to use an even more powerful ninjutsu.
However, this ti, Seii didn't give him the chance.
Seeing that the distance was almost right, Seii instantly used the Body Flicker Technique, his speed increasing dramatically.
If an ordinary person did this, it would be a suicidal act.
But Seii was different. He possessed the Two Tomoe Sharingan and could rely on his powerful perception to dodge those rapidly approaching vacuum blades in ti.
Therefore, after paying a certain price, Seii broke through the range of the Wind Style: Great Sickle Weasel Technique and appeared before Sabaku no Kaze.
At this ti, the opponent hadn't finished preparing the ninjutsu.
Facing his astonished gaze, Seii swung his short sword.
Sabaku no Kaze reacted quickly. Seeing the incoming sword, he didn't hesitate at all, imdiately stopping his technique and flashing behind the fan.
Clang~
The short sword struck the fan, producing a dull sound.
Seii didn't relent. He quickly retracted his sword, his figure flickering, and launched another attack from a different direction.
Sensing the danger, Sabaku no Kaze imdiately closed his fan and swung it forcefully, attempting to knock away both the short sword and Seii himself.
However, Seii's reaction was incredibly swift. As soon as the opponent made a move, he withdrew his short sword. His figure flashed again, and he thrust his sword from another angle.
Seii originally thought that even if this move couldn't injure the opponent, it would at least force them to dodge.
Unexpectedly, Sabaku no Kaze easily resolved the crisis with a simple move.
He opened the fan he had just closed again and, using one corner as a pivot, swiftly rotated it ninety degrees, perfectly blocking the attack.
Seii's sword pierced the fan, creating a teeth-grinding scraping sound.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Sabaku no Kaze quickly ford hand seals. Before Seii could continue his attack, he pushed out his palm.
Although this palm strike was nearly a ter away from Seii, he was still sent flying.
No, rather than being slapped away, it was more like being blown away.
If Seii wasn't mistaken, this should be the C-rank ninjutsu - Wind Style: Gale Palm.
Although this technique was just a basic Wind Style ninjutsu, it had many ingenious uses. Blowing him away was just the simplest application.
Its true power lay in its ability to work in conjunction with flying ninja tools like shuriken and kunai, using wind pressure to accelerate them, thereby achieving precise hits and increasing their lethality.
Just like now, as soon as Seii was blown away and hadn't even landed yet, he saw Sabaku no Kaze take out a kunai and form hand seals again, seemingly preparing for a follow-up attack.
Unfortunately for him, although his speed was fast, it wasn't that obvious in Seii's eyes.
At least, he still had a chance to counterattack.
So, as soon as Seii's feet touched the ground, he took out three shuriken from his ninja tool pouch.
Then, without even looking, he threw them.
However, this casual throw made Sabaku no Kaze's hair stand on end. Without thinking, he dodged to the side.
But the three shuriken collided in mid-air, each changing direction, perfectly blocking Sabaku no Kaze's evasion path.
"What?"
Sabaku no Kaze was startled and hurriedly raised his kunai, blocking one of the shuriken's attacks at the last mont.
However, he didn't have ti to block the other two shuriken.
Helplessly, he could only twist his body as much as possible to avoid the attacks of those two shuriken.
Slash~
The sound of a blade cutting through flesh rang out.
One of the two shuriken grazed Sabaku no Kaze's shoulder, leaving an inch-long wound.
Blood oozed from it, quickly staining his clothes red.
Sabaku no Kaze glanced at the wound on his shoulder and then looked at Seii again, his eyes filled with apprehension.
The three shuriken just now might have seed simple, but they demonstrated a very high level of skill.
To throw those three shuriken required not only perfect timing but also precise prediction of his movents.
And Seii had achieved both.
In other words, as long as there was enough distance, the opponent could easily toy with him to death.
However, he knew his own limitations. He didn't have much confidence in the prediction just now, as their fight had been short, and he couldn't accurately predict the opponent's actions yet.
He had just instinctively felt that that direction had the highest chance of success, so he tried it.
Unexpectedly, one of them actually hit.
To be honest, his surprise wasn't any less than the opponent's, but that didn't stop him from projecting an air of confidence to pressure the opponent.
