"Chika!"

Koharu Shuji cried out in distress as he saw Seii's sword pierce the creature's head.

Unlike the typical partnership between ninja and their summoning beasts, Koharu Shuji and Chika shared a deep bond.

Chika had been with Koharu Shuji since his youth, a chance encounter that had accompanied him throughout his entire ninja career.

After losing his teacher and two comrades to Uchiha ninja in a mission, Chika beca his closest companion.

It could be said that without Chika, he wouldn't have made it this far.

So, seeing Chika critically injured, he was enraged.

Without hesitation, Koharu Shuji ford hand seals again and used the sa Wind Style jutsu.

A nearly transparent wind blade condensed and shot towards Seii under his control.

However, having experienced it once, Seii wouldn't fall for the sa trick again. Although the wind blade was incredibly fast, he easily dodged it.

Moreover, he had observed Koharu Shuji's hand seals and chakra manipulation. And he had just awakened his Wind Style chakra.

This provided the foundation for replication.

He wasn't interested in other ninjutsu, but this jutsu, at least B-rank, piqued his interest.

Although he had already set his sights on the S-rank Wind Style: Rasenshuriken as his offensive Wind Style jutsu, it didn't hurt to learn another one.

After all, having more skills was never a bad thing!

Besides, developing the Rasenshuriken would take considerable ti. This Wind Style jutsu could fill the gap in the anti.

This jutsu had a long range, decent power, and excellent speed, making it a valuable addition.

Seii wouldn't miss this opportunity. He activated his Sharingan's copying ability and replicated the jutsu.

While dodging the wind blade, he glanced at his status panel.

As expected, a new jutsu had appeared in his skill list.

Moreover, its proficiency had skipped the Lv0 "uninitiated" level and directly reached Lv1 (1/200) "beginner" level.

This ant he could now use this jutsu, although it might not be very proficient yet.

This was the first ti Seii had tried using the Sharingan's copying ability.

How should he describe it?

It felt quite amazing!

It was as if he had instantly seen through the entire process of the jutsu's execution and copied it into his own body, allowing him to reproduce it to so extent.

He guessed the reason it was only at the beginner level was because his understanding of Wind Style jutsu was still shallow.

Also, he hadn't mastered the shape and nature transformation of Wind Style chakra yet, so this was the best he could do.

Once he improved in those aspects, the proficiency of copied jutsu might directly jump to Lv2 or Lv3, or even Lv4.

In any case, it definitely wouldn't be low.

The only surprise was that the copied jutsu had no na.

Yes, there was only a string of garbled code in front of the proficiency level, not the jutsu's na. It seed that because he didn't know the na of the jutsu, it wasn't displayed.

However, this wasn't bad news.

At the very least, it ant that the information on the panel was based on his own knowledge and wouldn't randomly display things he didn't understand.

Putting these thoughts aside, Seii nad the jutsu "Wind Style: Wind Blade".

The garbled code on the panel flickered and changed to [Wind Style: Wind Blade: Lv1 (1/200)].

After doing this, Seii closed the panel and looked at Koharu Shuji again.

Koharu Shuji was still maintaining the posture of releasing the jutsu.

Everything that had just happened occurred in an instant.

With his fully evolved Three-Tomoe Sharingan at full power, Seii's reaction speed was several tis that of an ordinary person. Naturally, he could think about many things in a very short ti.

Koharu Shuji, unaware that his jutsu had been secretly copied by Seii, was still anxiously looking at the creature.

Seii wouldn't miss such an opportunity. After dodging the second round of attacks, he dashed forward.

First, he used the Sharingan's hypnotic ability to force Koharu Shuji to look away, then swung his sword at his head.

At this point, no matter how worried Koharu Shuji was about the creature, he had to deal with Seii's attack with all his might.

However, after the previous battles, Seii had already figured out his habits and fighting style, and his attacks were now incredibly fluid.

Although Seii's left arm was injured, it didn't affect his swordsmanship.

On the other hand, Koharu Shuji's previous waist injury had impacted his movents, and his strength had significantly decreased.

Furthermore, without the creature's interference, Seii could focus entirely on the fight.

So, he quickly gained the upper hand.

For a ti, Koharu Shuji could only defend.

However, the principle that "a prolonged defense will inevitably lead to mistakes" applied everywhere.

In the subsequent fight, despite Koharu Shuji's efforts, he couldn't avoid getting more and more injured, and his condition worsened.

Finally, when he was once again dealing with an attack from Seii's blind spot, he was a step too slow. Seii seized the opportunity and pierced his lower back with his sword.

"Ugh!"

Koharu Shuji groaned, glancing back to see Seii standing calmly behind him.

*Tsk*

Seii pulled out his short sword without hesitation and was about to strike again.

But at that mont, Koharu Shuji suddenly shouted and turned around, thrusting his kunai at Seii's neck with a reverse grip.

Clearly, he was trying to take Seii down with him.

Seeing this, Seii didn't dodge. He retracted his sword and precisely blocked Koharu Shuji's kunai.

Logically, Koharu Shuji had two choices now. One was to continue his attack and try to injure or even kill Seii.

The other was to retreat imdiately and protect himself.

However, he did neither. Instead, he grabbed at Seii with a狞笑: "Let's die together!"

A sizzling sound ca from his chest as several explosive tags ignited.

Obviously, these weren't attached just now.

Before turning around, he had already prepared a second suicidal move, attaching explosive tags to his chest and activating them.

At such a close distance, even if the explosive tags weren't on Seii, the explosion would be enough to kill him.

However, facing such a crisis, Seii's face remained calm.

Although Koharu Shuji's actions were subtle and done with his back to Seii, Seii had sensed them early on.

How could he be so easily tricked?

Before Koharu Shuji's hand could touch him, Seii pressed his left hand onto his abdon, and the Rasengan in his palm instantly erupted.

Koharu Shuji felt a sharp pain in his abdon and vomited a mouthful of blood.

Then, his entire body was sent flying backward like a windmill.

"No—"

Koharu Shuji cried out in despair.

But soon, his voice was drowned out by a series of explosions.

Crimson flas rose, instantly engulfing him.

*Boom*

When Koharu Shuji landed again, he had been reduced to a charred and disfigured corpse.

His revenge fulfilled, Seii stood silently, feeling a sense of relief.

In this world, there were only a few people and things he cared about. Now that one of them was settled, he naturally felt lighter.

That's all for today.
