Heart of Steel Half-Morph Sword Saint, Madara is willing to call me the strongest

"not good!"

At this moment, Hinata Shiori's heart suddenly shrank, and her Byakugan captured the dense and chaotic chakra fluctuations in the distance.

She immediately realized the urgency of the situation and shouted, "Everyone, retreat quickly! There are a lot of strong chakra fluctuations approaching us quickly!"

In Shiori's eyes, countless tiny chakra lines intertwined into a web, and those figures were pouring in from all directions.

"You retreat first, I'll cover you, don't worry about me!"

Minato shouted and stood in front of the many Kirigakure ninjas that were rushing towards him.

Having Minato cover the retreat is the best choice. He is proficient in the Flying Thunder God Technique, so no one needs to worry about his safety.

Uchiha Yi and Kakashi nodded slightly to Minato, and without any hesitation, the two of them immediately retreated out of the camp under Minato's cover.

Soon, the other six people except Shuimen gathered together and were about to evacuate the camp through the broken hole in the earth wall.

"Hey, you guys wanna escape like this?"

A cold voice suddenly sounded.

As the voice fell, a tall figure seemed to walk out of the shadows and stood in front of the six people.

He held a giant black beheading sword that was almost as tall as a man, and the blade emitted a heart-pounding cold light.

"Do you think you can come and go as you please here?"

The burly man showed a mouthful of sharp teeth. His expression was extremely gloomy, and his whole body was like a knife that had been cut out of its body, filled with murderous aura.

Kakashi glanced at the gloomy man standing in front of everyone, his eyes narrowed slightly and he stopped.

Seeing Kakashi stop, Uchiha Yi and the people behind him also stopped.

"Kakashi, who is this guy? He doesn't look like someone who can be easily dealt with." Obito swallowed hard and asked in a slightly hoarse voice.

"Idiot, didn't you see the big sword in his hand? If I'm not mistaken, he should be one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Hidden Mist." Kakashi's face looked extremely solemn.

"What?! The Seven Ninja Swordsmen? Aren't those guys the strongest men in Kirigakure?" Inuzukagawa was shocked and his eyes widened.

"This man should be Biwa Juzo, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen."

Uchiha Yi recognized the very eye-catching beheading sword.

In the future, this guy Biwa Juzo will be a member of the "Akatsuki organization" and Itachi's partner.

His strength should be considered above average among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, almost at the quasi-Kage level.

Almost at the same moment when Biwa Juzang's figure appeared, the surrounding air fluctuated again, and more figures appeared like ghosts.

They were either standing on the treetops or blocking the entrance to the earth wall, and each figure revealed a powerful aura of a jonin level.

For a moment, Minato and his seven companions were surrounded by many Mist Ninjas.

"Oh no, those four guys are actually here."

After glancing around, Minato's face suddenly darkened.

In addition to Biwa Juzo, the other three members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, Xiguashan Fuguki, Kurishai Kushimaru and Tongkusa Yaeito, were also present. In total, four members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen gathered here.

Minato's face turned a little pale as he realized the seriousness of the situation.

This is definitely not a small troop camp of Kirigakure, but the base of Kirigakure's strongest combat force!

The intelligence provided by the Root was completely wrong.

This matter is by no means simple. The fact that so many Kirigakure jonin can gather here cannot be hidden from all Konoha reconnaissance forces.

"This is not going to be good."

Uchiha Yi also immediately realized the seriousness of the matter, and his expression instantly became solemn.

The information provided by the Root this time was completely wrong, and it was most likely deliberately concealed by Danzo.

Is it directed at me?

No, on the surface, he did not show any hostility towards Danzo.

So……

Uchiha Yi raised his head slightly and looked at Namikaze Minato.

This matter is most likely directed at Minato Namikaze.

The reason, of course, is for the position of the next Hokage.

As for myself, I was unlucky as I was sent by the Third Hokage to carry out this mission.

"Whoosh-"

One of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, Tousou Nobito, lightly leaped into the air, quickly forming seals with his hands, and then suddenly pushed forward, shouting: "Water Style: Great Samedan Jutsu!"

"Wow—"

In an instant, a surging stream of water condensed into an oversized shark-shaped water bomb, carrying an overwhelming force and rushing towards the blazing flames around it.

The moment the flame touched the water shark, waves of water vapor evaporated. In just a few seconds, all the flames were swallowed up by the power of the wave. The camp was filled with water vapor, and the smoke disappeared and the fire was extinguished.

After the fire in the camp was extinguished, neither side rushed to take action.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the field became extremely tense because of the confrontation.

In this brief silence, a low voice sounded.

"I didn't expect that it would be Konoha's Yellow Flash who did it himself. What a surprise."

The person who was speaking was slightly plump, with long orange hair down to his waist, sharp teeth, a fluffy bandage wrapped around his neck, and green stripes painted on his cheeks.

It was Xiguashan Pufferfish Demon, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen. His burly figure was particularly eye-catching among the Kirigakure jonin.

"However, with only seven people and several little devils, you just barged into our camp so brazenly. Aren't you too confident? Or do you have any backup plan?"

A sharp look suddenly appeared in the puffer ghost's eyes, pointing directly at Minato Namikaze.

Just as the people in Kirigakure were hesitating and doubting, Qing's figure flashed and appeared behind the puffer ghost.

"Master Juzo, Master Fuguki, the scouting team and I have searched the surrounding area, and there are no signs of Konoha troops nearby."

After hearing Qing's report, Biwa Juzang's eyes flashed with coldness, revealing a strong murderous intent, "I didn't expect that I would have a chance to kill Yellow Flash today. So, Namikaze Minato, get ready to die!!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding Kirigakure jonin immediately assumed attacking postures, and most of their eyes were focused on Namikaze Minato.

There were nearly twenty Kirigakure jonins present, and most of them were elite jonins. In addition, there were four members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen who were famous in the ninja world, and Kirigakure who came to support them continuously. Even Namikaze Minato would find it difficult to defeat them.

If Minato Namikaze could be killed, it would be equivalent to cutting off one of Konoha's arms, and would instantly reverse the passive situation of Kirigakure on the battlefield.

"Hey, that Uchiha kid with a knife seems to be the little guy who has become quite famous recently."

Kurishan Kushimaru, who had long, fluffy, spiky yellow hair, stared intently at Uchiha Yi, and his voice was flat and seemed to have no human emotions at all.

"Leave this brat to me. I love killing these so-called geniuses."

"Then, go to hell!!"

"kill!!"

"Spiral Flash Super Rondo Roar 3!!"

In a flash, dozens of dazzling rays of light burst out, and the fierce golden light was extremely dazzling.

Most of the people present had to raise their hands to cover their eyes to relieve the burning sensation.

"boom--"

For a moment, lightning burst out like a sea of ​​stars, endless electric light danced, and burst into a brilliant and terrifying flash of light.
