Seeing that Seii instantly saw through his genjutsu, Yougui stopped wasting chakra and ceased the illusion.
Gradually, the laughter in the clearing faded away.
At this mont, the Konoha Chunin finally lowered their hands, but their expressions still showed lingering fear.
Seii, on the other hand, remained calm. He didn't rush to attack but looked at Yougui and asked again, "Why are you looking for ?"
"Why? For money, of course!"
Yougui didn't intend to hide anything and said straightforwardly, "Soone put a bounty on your head in the black market. I'm just the first one."
"Black market?"
Seii pondered for a mont and murmured, "So, you're a bounty ninja after all."
In fact, he had roughly guessed Yougui's identity as soon as he noticed that he didn't have any ninja village symbol and wasn't dressed like an Anbu ninja.
Moreover, he had even guessed who was behind the bounty.
If nothing unexpected happened, it should be Onoki. He always liked to use external forces to solve the village's problems.
The later rise of the Akatsuki organization had a lot to do with him.
So, it was quite normal for him to use bounty ninjas to eliminate him now.
Seii had another piece of evidence for this.
This place was located in the center of the battlefield. Without the covert assistance of Konoha or Iwagakure, it would be impossible for anyone to pass through the layers of blockades and reach here.
Konoha?
It was unlikely.
Even Danzo wouldn't make a move against him in this situation, at least not until he had fully utilized his remaining value.
Therefore, it could only be Iwagakure!
But...
'Ghost Corpse Clan? What is that?'
Seii was puzzled.
Whether in his past life or this one, he had never heard of this na. The Ghost Corpse Clan, from its na, seed to be a bloodline limit clan.
But he had never heard of it.
So, there were only two possibilities. One was that they were a very small clan, and the so-called "greatness" was just self-proclaid.
The second was that this clan was wiped out in this Ninja World War, which was why there was no news of them later.
'Wait...'
Suddenly, Seii thought of a third possibility, that this clan didn't exist at all, and the so-called Ghost Corpse Clan was just sothing they made up.
With this thought, Seii activated his Sharingan and carefully observed Yougui and the others behind him.
Seeing this, Yougui, either feeling guilty or for so other reason, didn't say anything further and directly ordered the people behind him to attack.
Seii didn't move. His subordinates were the first to strike, while he just stood there quietly, silently observing every move of these people.
As soon as they clashed, the Konoha Chunin suffered a setback.
These people weren't afraid of getting hurt at all. Just like the na 'Ghost Corpse Clan' suggested, they launched suicidal attacks against the Konoha Chunin.
The Konoha Chunin had never seen such a scene before and were imdiately caught off guard.
After that, they were practically being overwheld.
Seii could tell that even without the "kamikaze" style of fighting, these people's strength surpassed that of average Chunin.
In this way, regardless of whether they were injured or not, several of them working together could even hold back an ordinary Jonin.
'I wonder if they have any other tricks?'
Just as Seii was thinking this, one of them was caught off guard by a Konoha Chunin, who plunged a kunai into his chin, reaching his brain.
However, before the Chunin could rejoice, a strange smile suddenly appeared on the opponent's face.
The next mont, his body swelled up as if it was about to explode, and curse mark-like patterns appeared on his skin.
Instantly, a sense of crisis arose in the Chunin's heart.
He hurriedly retreated, but it was too late.
Seeing that the person was about to self-destruct, at the critical mont, Seii appeared beside him.
Then, he grabbed the Chunin's arm, kicked off the ground, and his body shot out like a cannonball.
Boom~
A muffled explosion sounded.
The person self-destructed, and his dark blood mixed with bone and flesh fragnts shot out, instantly covering an area of ten ters.
When the dust settled, everything within this area, whether flowers, plants, trees, or soil and rocks, was riddled with holes from the bone fragnts.
One could imagine the danger a person would face if they were caught in it.
Seii put down the Konoha Chunin and looked at Yougui vigilantly. This self-destruction alone was dangerous enough.
Moreover...
Seii glanced around.
Countless figures appeared in the forest, silently surrounding them.
Seeing this, the Konoha Chunin quickly broke free from their opponents and gathered around Seii, asking in a low voice, "Captain, what should we do?"
"What to do?"
Yougui sneered upon hearing his question.
Before Seii could answer, he said, "My target is Uchiha Seii. If you know what's good for you, get out of my way."
Although they all knew that the opponent was trying to sow discord, they couldn't help but glance at Seii from the corner of their eyes.
However, Seii's expression hadn't changed from the beginning.
He looked at Yougui, surveyed the surroundings, and said, "These... are all you, aren't they?"
"What do you an?"
Yougui pretended not to understand and asked.
However, no matter how he pretended, he couldn't deceive Seii's eyes. After he said, "These people are all him," a clear flicker of panic flashed in the opponent's eyes.
This instantly confird Seii's guess.
So, with a confident smile, he ignored Yougui and turned to his subordinates, saying, "Protect yourselves."
With that, he leaped towards Yougui not far away.
Even before moving, he had already activated his 'Genjutsu: Sharingan'.
Even though they were twenty to thirty ters apart, the opponent was still held in place by him.
Thus, before the other 'ghost corpses' could react, he had already arrived in front of Yougui. Then, with a swing of his sword, he chopped off the opponent's head.
Then, the head flew straight out, hitting a tree, and then fell heavily to the ground, rolling seven or eight ters away.
It was only at this mont that the opponent broke free from the genjutsu, and the gaze he directed at Seii was filled with anger and malice.
His mouth opened and closed, making a sound like an old man gasping for breath, hoarse and unpleasant to hear.
"What a Ghost Sword! Uchiha Seii, you can't kill ."
With that, he controlled the corpse next to Seii, completing a self-destruction even faster than the previous 'ghost corpse'.
Boom~
Flesh and bone fragnts scattered everywhere, but there was no trace of Seii.
The next mont, another head flew out.
Seii reappeared twenty ters away, once again severing soone's head with a single sword strike.
Then, before the head could land, Seii disappeared again.
In this way, Seii teleported three tis in a row, cutting off three people's heads.
Only then did Yougui react and start controlling all the nearby 'ghost corpses' to attack Seii.
Explosions sounded one after another in the clearing, forcing Seii to dodge.
For a ti, Seii's movents were greatly restricted.
At the sa ti, all the nearby 'ghost corpses' spoke in Yougui's voice.
They looked at Seii and kept saying, "Uchiha Seii, stop struggling. It's pointless. We are immortal. You can't defeat us. Give up!"
The voices of these 'ghost corpses' were like demonic whispers, constantly stimulating Seii's auditory nerves, attempting to influence his will.
Unfortunately, it was all useless!
Seii remained silent, focused on eliminating the 'ghost corpses' in the clearing.
