ASFUCITWON Chapter 209: The Battle Begins 10

Not wanting to lose momentum, the woman from Iwagakure formed hand seals again.

"Fire Ninjutsu: Fireball!"

A burst of flames erupted from her mouth, forming a hot ball that shot towards Reiji.

Seeing this, Reiji vanished once more, leaving only a ripple of Chakra where he had stood.

He reappeared right behind the Kirigakure ninja, who was still bound by his sword.

Sensing Reiji's presence, the man attempted to jump to avoid the fireball, but a piercing thrust halted his movement.

Reiji's Chakra spear pierced the man's back, blood gushing out, and in the next moment, the man's body was used as a shield to absorb the impact of the fireball.

A thunderous explosion occurred, with chunks of flesh and ash flying through the air.

Reiji, like an untouched shadow, floated up into the sky.

From where he hovered in the air, he looked down coldly.

On the surface of the sea, the remaining ninjas stood scattered, their faces tense, breaths quickening.

The water beneath their feet rippled gently, as if trembling in fear.

Reiji raised one hand.

A giant Chakra spear formed, larger than the village gate, glowing bluish with a pulse of power that was almost deafening.

Without mercy, Reiji hurled it.

The spear pierced the atmosphere, creating a long shriek before crashing into the water with the force of a meteor.

A tremendous explosion occurred, a massive wave forming, crashing into the ninjas who were trying to escape.

The sounds of screams, cracking bones, and splashing water—all blended into a heartbreaking symphony of death.

Not giving them time to catch their breath, Reiji appeared again.

This time behind a remaining Sunagakure woman.

The woman turned around, her face covered in wounds and blood.

Before she could utter a single word, a large Chakra axe had already formed in Reiji's hand.

With one brutal swing, the axe was aimed to cleave her body from shoulder to waist.

However, the woman moved so quickly, as if her body were a shadow, dodging to the right.

Reiji, having anticipated her move, quickly adjusted the trajectory of his attack.

Reiji's heavy axe spun through the air, darting with an unavoidable speed.

With a precise motion, the axe touched the woman's skin, slicing through her left hand as if cutting through fragile fabric.

"Aaahhk!" The scream echoed, slicing through the cool air.

Fresh blood sprayed, splattering into the air like red paint on a black canvas, and the woman collapsed, her body shaking violently from the excruciating pain.

Before she could comprehend what had happened, Reiji moved again with incredible speed, the axe gliding at a sharp angle, and in an instant, the woman's head was severed.

The severed head spun in the air, floating down in slow motion, before finally crashing into the dark sea surface, shattering the silence with a tearing sound.

Reiji stood tall, his face expressionless, but his eyes showed a terrifying excitement.

Without pause, Reiji moved his hand, and with a swift motion, the axe began to change shape.

The gathered energy caused the axe to grow in an extraordinary way, expanding as if made from limitless power.

In an instant, Reiji swung the axe with immense strength, feeling like a storm wind crashing down hard.

The axe slipped from Reiji's grip, floating in the air with a spinning motion that was almost impossible to follow with the eye.

The ninjas present, from the three great villages, were momentarily stunned.

Some of them ran, trying to evade, their bodies moving quickly, but there was a palpable fear on their faces—a fear that cut through the pulse of courage.
