393. Home Got Stolen?

"Boom!!"

As a tall, burly figure crashed into the battlefield, a massive cloud of dust erupted.

Fuguki Suikazan, exuding a thick aura of bloodlust, wielded Samehada, a massive sword wrapped in bandages. A crimson glint flashed in his eyes.

"It's one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, the wielder of Samehada—Fuguki Suikazan!"

The surrounding Kaguya clansmen immediately recognized the identity of the burly man wielding the giant sword.

However, the expressions on the faces of these kimono-clad individuals with their strange hairstyles showed no trace of fear. Instead, they seemed... eager for battle!

That's right, this was why they were known as the "battle clan." No matter who their enemy was, they would launch a frenzied attack.

"This guy is mine!" A Kaguya ninja grinned wildly, pulling a bone blade from his shoulder and charging at Fuguki Suikazan with incredible speed.

This scene made Fuguki Suikazan's expression darken. "You think I'm some small fry? Damn fool." Facing the Kaguya clan's assault, he didn't hesitate to swing Samehada with all his might.

The attacking Kaguya ninja didn't dodge either, instead preparing to clash head-on with his bone blade.

As it turned out, Fuguki Suikazan's strength far surpassed that of the average ninja.

Not to mention, he had the power of Samehada backing him up.

The moment their weapons collided, the chakra enveloping the bone blade was swiftly absorbed by Samehada.

Combined with Fuguki Suikazan's terrifying strength, the bone blade shattered instantly. The sharp spikes on Samehada tore the Kaguya ninja in half!!!

Blood and gore splattered everywhere, a horrifying sight!

Yet, even in the face of such carnage, the remaining Kaguya clansmen showed no intention of retreating.

On the contrary, the blood of their fallen comrades only fueled their battle frenzy, making their desire to fight even stronger.

If one person couldn't win, then they'd all attack together!

Thus, a large number of Kaguya ninjas charged from all directions, engaging in a fierce battle with Fuguki Suikazan, one of the Blood Mist faction's top generals.

Unfortunately, the Shikotsumyaku, which was nearly indestructible to others, wasn't invincible against Fuguki Suikazan.

After all, Samehada had the ability to absorb chakra, and no matter how powerful the Kaguya clan's Shikotsumyaku was, it still relied on chakra to function.

All Fuguki Suikazan had to do was wait for Samehada to drain his enemies' chakra, then use his immense strength to tear them apart.

So, after Fuguki Suikazan and Biwa Juzo joined the battle, the scales of victory tipped heavily in favor of the Blood Mist faction.

Although the Kaguya clan was strong overall, they currently lacked any truly high-tier combatants.

The only notable figure was Kimimaro, who had an impressive performance in the original story.

But he was still just a child, and no matter how talented he was, his effectiveness in battle was limited.

On the Blood Mist side, they not only had Fuguki Suikazan, a close-combat tank, but also Biwa Juzo, a long-range artillery unit, and Kisame's support on the battlefield.

The disparity between the two sides was clear.

Under such an onslaught, even the so-called "battle clan" of the Kaguya could only hold out for half a night before completely collapsing.

The entire Kaguya clan's territory was engulfed in flames, and the bodies of the clan members piled up like mountains on the battlefield.

The stench of blood spread far and wide, and the pitch-black sky was illuminated by the sea of fire, with countless crows circling above, eager to swoop down and feast.

Seeing this scene, the young Kisame couldn't help but sigh.

Noticing his unease, Fuguki Suikazan frowned and asked, "What's wrong, Kisame?"

Hearing his superior's question, Kisame shook his head and said, "Nothing, just feeling a bit regretful."

"Regretful?" Fuguki Suikazan's gaze immediately turned dangerous. The Blood Mist faction had no use for something as trivial as pity.

Perhaps sensing Fuguki Suikazan's displeasure, Kisame explained, "Earlier, I ran into a kid who was pretty strong. I thought it'd be great if we could recruit him into the Blood Mist faction. But he's already dead, so there's no point talking about it now."

Kisame shrugged, quickly masking his unusual expression.

Fuguki Suikazan narrowed his eyes and stared at him for a moment before coldly saying, "Don't waste time thinking about such pointless things. In the Blood Mist, all you need to do is follow orders." Faced with this reprimand, Kisame simply nodded.

"I understand."

Hearing this, Kisame finally let out a grunt of acknowledgment.

Just as he was about to leave, a figure suddenly rushed out of the snowy forest in a panic.

"Lord Fuguki, something terrible has happened!"

Seeing the newcomer's frantic state, Fuguki Suikazan immediately felt a sense of foreboding.

Sure enough, the first words out of the Kirigakure ninja's mouth were—

"The Fourth Mizukage has been overthrown by the opposition faction led by Mei Terumī! All the Blood Mist members in the village have been captured!"

"What?!"

Hearing this news, Fuguki Suikazan's eyes widened in shock.

Not only him, but even Kisame and Biwa Juzo were stunned.

They had worked so hard, finally managing to take down the Yuki clan and the Kaguya clan, only to hear that their home had been stolen?

Who wouldn't be dumbfounded by this...

After a brief moment of stunned silence, Biwa Juzo was the first to snap out of it.

"No, we have to take our forces and rush back immediately! We can't let that woman Mei Terumī seize power!"

His attitude was resolute.

If the opposition faction took control, the Blood Mist faction would inevitably face a massive purge.

By then, both he and Fuguki Suikazan would be reduced to rogue ninjas, despised by all.

Rather than let that happen, it was better to take advantage of Mei's unstable position and kill their way back to reclaim power!

Hearing this, the Kirigakure ninja who had traveled so far to deliver the news wore a troubled expression.

"Spit it out!!" Biwa Juzo, already on edge, had no patience for games and immediately barked.

Hearing this, the Kirigakure ninja reluctantly spoke up, "By the time I left the village, the Konoha reinforcements sent by Danzō had already arrived in Kirigakure."

"Konoha?"

Hearing this news, Biwa Juzo felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

Fuguki Suikazan, on the other hand, showed a look of realization.

So it was the "Darkness of the Shinobi" who had intervened.

No wonder Mei and the others had managed to take Kirigakure so easily.

Otherwise, with Yagura's perfect jinchūriki strength, even if Mei and Hōzuki Mangetsu teamed up, they might not have been a match for him...
