"Damn it!"
Looking at Seii flying away in the sky, Terumi i's face turned grim. After cursing under her breath, she imdiately commanded, "Chase!"
Without hesitation, she led the charge and pursued him.
Seeing this, the other Mist Village Jonin glanced at each other before following her.
However, while Seii was flying in the sky unhindered, they were stuck running on the ground, forced to navigate various obstacles, unable to keep up with his speed.
By the ti they arrived at the battlefield, they saw Seii hovering in the air, launching various jutsu and relentlessly attacking the Mist shinobi below.
Although these Mist ninjas fought back, they couldn't pose much of a threat to Seii, leaving them in a mostly defensive position.
As a result, they suffered heavy casualties in a short amount of ti.
Earlier, when Seii was attacking different spots and relocating frequently, it was to disrupt the Mist's attack rhythm. Plus, he was evading counterattacks from Terumi i and the other Jonin, so he hadn't caused much harm to the Mist forces.
Now that he no longer had those concerns, his aerial advantage beca obvious.
With the help of his Sharingan, he easily inflicted heavy losses on the Mist troops from above.
anwhile, the nearby Leaf ninjas took advantage of the situation, banding together to resist the Mist's assault.
Once the situation here was stabilized, Seii turned his gaze toward Terumi i and the others, who had rushed over.
Without hesitation, he quickly completed a series of hand signs, took a deep breath, and unleashed a jutsu—**Wind Release: Great Breakthrough**!
Using 2,000 points of chakra, he summoned a tornado-like disaster.
Even though Terumi i and her group were strong, they had no choice but to retreat in the face of such an attack.
Seeing this, Seii didn't waste ti tangling with them. He imdiately flew to another part of the battlefield and launched an attack on the Mist forces there.
It wasn't that he was being unreasonable; it was just that there were too many Mist ninjas in this assault.
Plus, they had caught the Leaf forces off guard with a surprise attack on their outpost. If Seii didn't assist, the situation would beco impossible to stabilize.
In a mont like this, adhering to the usual "soldiers fight soldiers, generals fight generals" rule would be a joke.
As for the Mist breaking the unspoken rules by targeting lower-ranking ninjas, Seii could only think, "Fine, mutual destruction it is!"
After all, there were far more Mist ninjas than Leaf ninjas. Even if they captured the outpost, it wouldn't matter if all the lower-ranked shinobi were dead.
Fortunately, Terumi i and the other Mist Jonin weren't foolish; they didn't deliberately target the Leaf's lower-ranking shinobi and continued to pursue Seii relentlessly.
However, because he could fly, he held a significant advantage.
Using his superior mobility, he continued evading the Mist Jonin while moving swiftly between battlefields, dealing continuous damage to the Mist forces.
But as the saying goes, "If you walk by the river long enough, your shoes will get wet."
As Seii launched more attacks, the weaknesses of his **Wind Release: Wings of Wind** began to show.
When he launched another assault on the Mist ninjas below, Terumi i made her move.
In a flash, she completed a series of hand signs and spat out a corrosive liquid from her mouth.
Seii had seen this technique before—it was Terumi i's **Lava Release: Acid Monster Jutsu**.
Terumi i possessed two Kekkei Genkai: Lava Release and Boil Release. He had already experienced her jutsu firsthand in their initial encounter.
Recognizing the attack imdiately, Seii didn't hesitate. After finishing his own jutsu, he flapped his chakra wings and moved away from the acid.
However, at that mont, several kunai were hurled toward him.
What was strange was that only two of them were aid directly at him, while the others flew wildly off-target.
At first, Seii thought it was so kind of trick, but then he noticed where the kunai were actually heading, and his pupils contracted slightly.
The kunai were aid at the possible places he might dodge to.
Clearly, they had figured out the limitations of his **Wings of Wind**, and this coordination was a test of that theory.
Narrowly dodging the incoming kunai, Seii thought to himself, "I really can't underestimate anyone!"
Indeed, after mastering flight, he held a major advantage.
But Terumi i and her companions weren't amateurs. With their extensive combat experience, they had already identified the weaknesses—or rather, the shortcomings—of his **Wings of Wind**.
If his prediction was correct, they would now begin focusing on exploiting those weaknesses.
As soon as he thought that, two Mist Anbu suddenly used a jutsu—**Water Release: Rain Cut**!
In an instant, a downpour of needle-like raindrops shot toward him.
Upon closer inspection, it beca clear that the raindrops were all converging toward his chakra wings.
This was clearly a targeted attack.
As a result, he had to use more chakra to maintain his flight jutsu.
But that was just the beginning.
Just as he was about to fly out of the range of their attacks, a flurry of kunai and shuriken shot up from below.
This attack didn't co from Terumi i and her group but from the lower-ranked ninjas.
At so point, Terumi i had silently organized them to launch a coordinated strike.
Seeing the incoming kunai and shuriken, Seii's Sharingan spun rapidly, analyzing their trajectories in an instant.
In the next mont, he dodged them with swift movents and flew higher into the sky.
But there was no way Terumi i would let him escape so easily after setting up this trap.
Just as he ascended, two water whips, as quick as venomous snakes, shot toward him and wrapped around his ankles.
Feeling the pull, Seii looked back to see two Mist Anbu each holding onto one of the whips.
**Water Release: Water Whip**?
Seii recognized the Hidden Mist Village's secret technique.
Seeing him look back, the two Mist Anbu avoided his gaze and pulled hard, trying to drag Seii down.
However, there was no way Seii would give in so easily.
He turned his right hand into a blade, covered it with chakra, and slashed downward, severing the water whip around his right ankle.
With another swing, he cut the second whip.
This technique was none other than the dical jutsu—**Chakra Scalpel**!
Since learning this jutsu, he hadn't had the chance to use it in battle.
Now, having tried it, the results were outstanding.
"Indeed, mastering multiple skills is never a burden. The ancients didn't lie!" Seii thought, feeling satisfied after regaining his freedom.
Without the **Chakra Scalpel**, he could have broken free, but not as easily as he had just now.
This experience further solidified Seii's resolve to enhance his skill set.
