Clang!
After once again raising the Executioner's Blade to block Seii's attack, Juzo Biwa gasped for breath.
They had been fighting fiercely for nearly half an hour. Due to the constant need to be wary of the Sharingan's genjutsu, his ntal and physical energy consumption was imnse.
In just a short while, Juzo Biwa was struggling to keep up.
Seii naturally noticed his opponent's predicant.
Juzo Biwa's strength was indeed impressive, but compared to him, there was still a gap, even without using the Mangekyo Sharingan.
Unlike Kaguya Morisuke, who had inherited the Shikotsumyaku, Juzo Biwa didn't possess any special abilities.
His high combat prowess stemd partly from the incredibly sharp Executioner's Blade and partly from his rich combat experience.
This might allow him to be invincible against ordinary Jonin, but against Seii, it was sowhat lacking.
Therefore, it was normal for him to gradually falter.
However, even so, Seii didn't choose to be aggressive, instead continuing to drain his opponent's stamina and chakra.
After all, the overall pressure on the Konoha Chunin had greatly decreased due to his previous relentless slaughter of Mist ninja Special Jonin and Chunin.
He no longer needed to worry about the situation collapsing.
So, he could take his ti.
Coincidentally, after three consecutive battles, his Swordsmanship proficiency had increased again, getting closer and closer to Lv7.
Perhaps Juzo Biwa could provide him with the final bit of proficiency, allowing his Swordsmanship to reach the realm of perfection.
This wasn't wishful thinking. Currently, including the shadow clones, there were four of him simultaneously gaining experience.
Although their insights might overlap, the efficiency was definitely higher than that of a single person.
Based on his calculations and the previous pattern of proficiency growth, the current efficiency was likely sufficient.
Since that was the case, he naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity.
...
Ti passed by.
About ten minutes later.
Juzo Biwa's condition worsened. He repeatedly tried to counterattack and kill Seii or his shadow clones, but Seii's keen Sharingan allowed him to dodge every ti.
Seeing that the ti was ripe, Seii started looking for an opportunity to deliver a fatal blow.
As for sparing his opponent and leaving him for Might Dai, maintaining the 'plot's' course...
Seii had never considered that.
As he had said before, the so-called 'plot' had already changed since he transmigrated into this world.
In that case, there was no need to hesitate.
Especially now that his strength had increased, there was even less reason to hold back.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The battle continued.
Suddenly, at a certain mont, Seii saw an opportunity.
Instinctively, he used the Genjutsu: Sharingan.
Unfortunately, the opportunity was fleeting, leaving him with very little reaction ti. So the power of this Genjutsu: Sharingan wasn't great.
Even so, after Juzo Biwa fell for it, he was montarily dazed.
And it was this mont that Seii's other two shadow clones seized.
'Rasengan!'
In an instant, a high-density chakra ball, with a diater of fifty to sixty centiters, appeared in the palm of one shadow clone.
Sensing the faint threat emanating from it, the mont Juzo Biwa regained his senses, he retreated, narrowly avoiding the shadow clone's surprise attack.
Just as Juzo Biwa was about to breathe a sigh of relief...
At that mont, a familiar piercing sound reached his ears. Juzo Biwa's expression changed drastically as he turned to look at the other shadow clone.
He saw a giant shuriken ford from chakra spinning rapidly in its palm, stirring the surrounding air into chaos.
'It's that move!'
Juzo Biwa's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't panic too much.
Ever since Seii used the Shadow Clone Technique, he had been guarding against this move. Even when the situation turned unfavorable, he hadn't let his guard down.
Now, his caution finally paid off.
He saw that almost the mont before Seii's shadow clone charged forward, he successfully used the Water Substitution Technique.
Even with the Sharingan, in this situation, he didn't have ti to change his tactics.
In the end, the shadow clone, holding the Wind Release: Rasengan, struck the water clone Juzo Biwa had left behind.
The Wind Release: Rasengan exploded, and the shadow clone, bearing the brunt of the technique's aftershock, instantly dispersed.
'As expected, low proficiency is troubleso!'
嗞~~~
The piercing, sharp sound rang out once more.
Seii's original body, holding the Wind Release: Rasengan, charged towards Juzo Biwa. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the scene and muttered to himself.
That's right, while Juzo Biwa was dodging the attacks of the two shadow clones, Seii's original body also unleashed the Wind Release: Rasengan.
And the target was Juzo Biwa, who had just used the Water Substitution Technique.
This ti, the opponent had no chance to dodge.
Juzo Biwa also realized this, so at the critical mont, he held the Executioner's Blade in front of him.
ztztztt..
The Wind Release: Rasengan slamd into the Executioner's Blade, producing a harsh grinding sound, as if countless needles were scraping against the blade, making one feel uncomfortable.
However, this sound didn't last long. In less than a breath, the Executioner's Blade in Juzo Biwa's hand broke.
No, to be more precise, it shattered.
Now, apart from the hilt, Juzo Biwa's hand held nothing else. The blade of the Executioner's Blade had turned into countless fragnts, flying in all directions.
Not only that, after shattering the Executioner's Blade, the Wind Release: Rasengan also exploded, turning into countless chakra needles.
Seeing this, Seii's face changed drastically. He kicked off the ground forcefully, his entire body shooting forward like a cannonball.
He didn't stop until he had retreated more than ten ters.
At this point, several fragnts of the Executioner's Blade were embedded in his body.
However, these were just superficial wounds, nothing to worry about.
The crucial issue was that so of those chakra needles had penetrated his body.
Seii quickly checked his condition.
After a while, he breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Because he had retreated in ti, those chakra needles hadn't stayed in his body for too long, so he hadn't suffered any severe injuries.
The Wind Release: Rasengan killed enemies by continuously piercing their bodies with the chakra needles released after the explosion.
In his case, since he had withdrawn early, there was no major problem.
It was the sa as the right hand that maintained the Wind Release: Rasengan. As long as it didn't make contact for too long, there wouldn't be any major issues.
Otherwise, if using it once or twice crippled the arm, the Wind Release: Rasengan wouldn't be a forbidden technique but a complete failure.
Nevertheless, Seii secretly decided that in the future, until his proficiency improved, he wouldn't use his original body to perform this technique again.
It was simply too dangerous!
