“What is the difference between Illusion and Reality?” Kazuo asked, a wide cruel smirk on his face as his body was once more engulfed by the darkness.
Torune felt the surrounding darkness almost beco tangible as his hands lightly shook.
Even for a shinobi veteran like himself, soone so talented that he had managed to beco the left-hand of Lord Danzo, he still found Kazuo dangerous.
Extrely so.
'It's been a while, feeling these emotions.' Torune thought to himself before trying to seal those emotions once more.
Kazuo didn’t let them even take a breath to calm themselves down however as his voice was heard once more.
This ti it ca from all directions, resonating throughout the pitch-black darkness.
“Each of us lives bound and depended on our individual knowledge. What soone else perceives might not be what you do.” Kazuo’s voice said.
A mont later, two more curling screams were heard.
Torune turned to face the shinobi only to find them still standing however their eyes were completley white and their mouths hanging wide open.
It was at this mont that Torune was looking at them that he saw two pitch black hands extend from the darkness and tear the heads off the two anbu's shoulders.
The seven shinobi had whittled down to only three now.
Torune however had already ford a plan in his mind. Despite the circumstances, his emotions had already beco as cold as ever.
“This is likely a physical illusion of so sort, if that’s the case then all we have to do is break it,” Torune announced to the remaining two root anbu who quickly nodded their heads in understanding.
Without wasting a single mont, all three of them ford hand signs at a speed almost imperceptible to the human eye.
“Fire Style: Great Fire Ball Jutsu”
“Lighting Release: Lightning Bullet”
“Wind Style: Wind Slash”
In a mont, three elental jutsu were launched at the sa ti however Torune didn’t stop at only that as he threw three more paper tag kunai following the jutsu.
With a large fireball, a speeding lightning bullet that crackled towards its destination, and an almost invisible large wind slash that converged all together at the end as well as the power of three explosion tags.
*Boom*
A loud explosion occured as the very ground under them shook, it felt as if the area around them was going to collapse at any mont.
However, Torune’s expression was anything but great.
The darkness around them had disappeared only for it to change into a large wasteland, bloodied corpses all around them whilst a large blood-red moon radiated light onto their bodies.
Kazuo’s voice once more resonated around them.
This ti it seed to spread throughout the entire bloodied battlefield.
“However both Knowledge and awareness are equivocal. What might be one’s reality, might be another’s illusion.”
It was at this mont that the bloodied corpses under the two Anbus beside Torune lifted their arms.
They took hold of the Anbu’s ankles and dragged them deep underground.
The only thing left behind in their wake was the horrid screams of the corpses that had dragged them underground.
“It seems like Lord Danzo was correct as always,” Torune said as sweat dripped down from his forehead.
“Was he?” Kazuo’s voice asked.
For a mont after, silence engulfed the entire battlefield.
A second after however, this silence was broken by the sound of flesh and blood being torn apart as Kazuo’s hand speared right through Torune’s heart.
“Or is Danzo just living in his own fantasies?”
*Sqchlk*
With a quick movent, Kazuo took his arm back, with no strength in his legs and body, Torune fell down onto the ground that was quickly changing color.
It was no longer a battlefield.
They were back in the sa grassy field where he had killed Kazuo during a previous turn.
They hadn’t actually moved at all, looking around, Torune saw the six corpses.
They had been put under an illusion from the start, no maybe even before that.
The only scene that told of a battle was the trampled trees showing signs of being hit by elental jutsu.
‘I’m sorry Lord Danzo, It seems like we were too late, he’s already blood.’ With those last thoughts, Torune’s eyes glazed over as the light disappeared from them.
His soul is heading towards the pureland.
*Sigh*
Releasing a sigh, Kazuo sat down on Torune’s body, feeling his remaining chakra reserves.
‘Almost completely drained. That was hard.’ Kazuo thought to himself as he rembered the preparations and the turns it had taken him to achieve this outco.
‘Three turns to pinpoint the location of each one of the enemies, four turns to create a good enough illusion to trap them inside it, seven tis to manage to pull off the first part of the illusion, and eighteen tis during the second illusion. In total this battle lasted a total of thirty-two turns.’ Kazuo thought as he released another shallow sigh before getting up on his feet and proceeding to head to each of the Anbu and sealing their bodies into his wrist guards.
After cleaning up the entire battlefield and only leaving two corpses behidn which he quickly charred completley black with a fire style jutsu, he turned towards his companions.
‘As I thought, they're completely useless.’ Kazuo thought to himself before he went ahead and woke them up.
“Captain, what happened?” They questioned, Kazuo simply shook his head lightly and motioned towards the two charred corpses’s.
"Nothing, just so rogue shinobi. Stay on guard from now on." Kazuo replied as he walked away from the group to set up his tent.
