Konoha's Destiny Twins

Newly built city - the capital of the Iron Kingdom. Because this country is dominated by samurai, ninjas are an unusually obtrusive presence here. Therefore, before entering the city, Shimizu took off his ANBU black robe and put away his ANBU mask. Wearing a black suit. He strolled casually on the street, admiring these distinctive antique building complexes. The commercial streets in the city were very lively with people coming and going. What surprised him was that the prosperity here actually exceeded that of Konoha, the leader of the five major countries. This dense population alone is enough to illustrate the prosperity of this country.

But along the way, he really didn't see another ninja except himself. Emotional ninjas are a rare species here. So naturally, passers-by would point at Qingshui from time to time, like, 'Look, there's a strange person here! ’, ‘This is my first time seeing a ninja. ', "Ninjas look so weak." He had heard such words so many times that he was numb.

He could hardly hold back the long sword that was about to move behind him.

Originally, he planned to appreciate the exotic scenery along the way, and then take a look at the world's other top martial arts - samurai, to see how they use chakra in swordsmanship... Well, he hasn't seen that so far. The so-called samurai was about to be submerged in the sea of ​​complaints from these civilians, and he also experienced several brutal moments of being watched.

Finally, he saw a weapons store. It is filled with a dazzling array of weapons. After calming down and looking forward to it, Qing Shui walked into the store...

"Boss, I would like to ask..." Qing Shui asked with a hint of politeness.

"We don't sell darts here!" the boss interrupted directly.

"...No, what I want to ask is..." Qing Shui wanted to explain.

"I told you that there are no darts for you ninjas to play with here, so go look for them elsewhere." The boss waved his hand impatiently to signal Qingshui to leave quickly.

"...No, I mean long..." Qingshui felt that the boss might have misunderstood and wanted to explain that what he wanted was not short weapons like kunai.

"There are no long darts, go, go, go, go to the store across the street and ask what toys they have." The boss pointed to the store opposite, hoping that Qing Shui would leave quickly.

"…Okay, thank you."

The boss breathed a sigh of relief.

Tolerate! With a strange feeling, Qing Shui was about to walk into the door of the weapons store opposite...

"old……"

"Xiong Er, you bastard, you actually framed me! Can't you see that my business is better than yours?!" Qingshui said a word before he was rudely interrupted. The owner of this weapons store was like Gatling. He kept talking, "You clearly know that my family does not sell toys, so what are your intentions in slandering my family's golden signboard like this! Huh?! Last time Mr. A Tiesheng said that my family's knives are good, you have always held a grudge, right? Want to see Did my family make a fool of themselves? Tell me!"

The more he spoke, the more outrageous he became. Qing Shui was defeated in advance...

Then Shimizu went to several weapon stores in the next period, all with similar situations. They had no desire to do business with ninjas at all. Those with better service attitude would just say "no selling", and those with worse service attitude would simply say "no". Just tell him to get out of the Iron Kingdom. It's not even easy to tip. This country is really unfriendly to ninjas...contemptuous, hostile, xenophobic! Before entering the Iron Country, he had imagined that the people here would treat ninjas with indifference, but he did not expect that they would be so repulsive. If the people's attitude is like this, can those in power still welcome him? !

But he still had this mission document in his hand to go to the Kingdom of Tang, and needed to pass through the Kingdom of Iron to be stamped. Without the permission of the people in power in the Kingdom of Iron, he went to the port and crossed the sea. If anything happened, The moth was regarded as a diplomatic incident, but when the time came, it was slapped with a bad hat.

"Why……"

Unable to do anything else, Qingshui could only come to the shogunate building in the newly built city.

He hoped to leave the country as soon as possible after obtaining the pass. The only thing he was relieved about was that the samurai guards here did not deliberately make things difficult for him. He arrived at the general's mansion smoothly. Then he only needed to see the samurai leader, get a stamp, and he could leave. .

"I am a ninja from Konoha. I was ordered to go to the Country of Yu to perform a mission. I need to obtain an entry and exit permit from your country."

"I'm sorry, Mifune-sama is not here at the moment." After understanding Qingshui's purpose, the housekeeper of the General's Mansion directly told Qingshui a cruel reality.

"Not here?" Qing Shui was surprised.

"Mifune-sama went to sea on important matters and will be back in about half a month." The butler explained.

"What about the general's seal?"

"Mifune-sama naturally took him away."

"...Isn't there anyone who can take care of things?"

"Sorry, no, Mifune-sama has the final say on everything here." The butler explained patiently.

"What about my documents?" Qing Shui gestured to the mission documents in his hand that needed to be stamped.

"I'm afraid we have to wait until Mifune-sama comes back..." The butler said he was helpless.

Just when Qingshui was thinking about how to solve the difficult problem in front of him, a middle-aged samurai walked out of the general's palace with a hideous scar on his left eye and said: "Young ninja, I can solve your problem."

"??"

"As long as you fight with me, I can guarantee to Lord Mifune on your behalf that during your mission this time, you can freely enter and exit the Iron Kingdom without the Iron Kingdom's shogun seal."

"Master Da Dao, what if something goes wrong..." the housekeeper said worriedly.

"Hey, no need to say more." The middle-aged samurai known as Da Dao told the housekeeper not to worry, and then looked directly at Qingshui, "I don't think the powerful ninja in front of me would say that he would abandon his job for a small mission. Regarding my own faith, do you think I am right?"

In an instant, Qingshui remembered that when he was flying over the canyon that day, he did catch a glimpse of a caravan, and the leading samurai with powerful chakra was...

"So it's you!" Qing Shui was surprised that he could meet each other like this.

"Your Excellency's strength is truly astonishing. We even checked the area where you landed...that kind of destructive power is not something that a ninja of average strength can achieve." The man with the sword looked full of admiration, "I saw you behind your back. Your weapon is not an ordinary ninja short sword, but a long sword. I guess you are also a master of swordsmanship?" Although the question was asked in a questioning way, it was in a positive tone.

"I am indeed good at using swords, but I don't know how I compare with you samurai." Qing Shui decided to accept the challenge. He wanted to see the power of samurai, and the word 'good' he said was not false at all. I have been practicing swordsmanship for more than ten years, and my teacher is Kosuke Maruhoshi, who has elite jounin strength. You must know that Maruboshi Kosuke once received the guidance of the Second-generation Hokage, and the Second-generation Hokage was the founder of Konoha-style swordsmanship!

"With such confidence, it is indeed worth fighting!" Dai Dao smiled with satisfaction and said, "How about Oki Suke as a referee? The sword has no eyes, so please look at one."

"Okay." Two more people walked out of the house. One was a young man in Chinese attire, about his age, and the other was a samurai named Okisuke.

Qingshui has long sensed that there are two powerful chakras here. The samurai named Dato in front of him is as turbulent as the tide, and the other named Okisuke is as calm as the sea, completely different styles. , but they are all undisputedly powerful.

"Don't disappoint the uncle with the knife. In fact, the uncle with the knife wanted to spar with you that day, but you left too fast, so he had to stay in the general's mansion and wait for you to come - haha, you did come. !" The girl's cheerful voice answered Qing Shui's doubts. It turned out that the other party was sure that he would come to the General's Mansion to get the mission document stamped, so he waited here in advance.

So, from that day's chance encounter in the canyon, this discussion was inevitable, right? But Qingshui's wish happened to be fulfilled. He also wanted to see the fighting style of this country's warriors.

"Please—" He took the lead and walked to the center of the square with his sword, and slowly drew out his katana.

Qing Shui also drew his long sword and decided to respond to the challenge with a sword.

"Ready - start!" As Okisuke's voice fell, the two people in the field disappeared at the same time.

With a "clang" sound, the weapons in their hands collided for the first time, and then separated quickly. With just one blow, Qingshui took three steps, while the sword only took one step back. The difference in strength was clear at a glance.

Qing Shui was a little surprised, his strength was actually inferior to the other party! You must know that although his physical skills are not as good as those of a pure physical ninja like Rikai in the original novel, he is still outstanding! Otherwise, how can I control that lightning-like swordsmanship? And a high-speed advance? ! Whether it was speed or strength, he couldn't take advantage of either. The speed of the two was almost the same, but he lost a bit in strength.

Don't fight hard! But the opponent will force him to fight in close combat!

Instantaneous technique!

The moment the clear water moved, a white sword light flashed in front of my eyes!

He turned sharply to the left, narrowly avoiding the white light, and continued to use the teleportation technique! This time the white sword light appeared on the left side.

Instantaneous technique! Qing Shui once again avoided the opponent's attack, and several chopped black hair fell from the air.

Even if he used the teleportation technique continuously or the ninjutsu that only required one seal, he was almost hit by the opponent. The fighting distance can't be extended at all, the opponent is as difficult as brown sugar, this samurai with a sword is too fast! In previous battles, he relied on speed to gain a certain advantage, and then waited for opportunities to move. But this time, Qingshui's speed could not bring him an advantage, and his strength was not even as good as his opponent. Such a high-speed and high-intensity battle gave him no chance to use other ninjutsu...

'If you can form a seal with one hand...'

Another ray of silver light flashed in front of his eyes, Qing Shui's face turned cold and he retreated violently.

"Distraction in battle can be fatal." Dai Dao reminded, but the attack became more fierce, and he swung a sword energy towards Qing Shui with unparalleled momentum.

Is this—chakra fluctuation? ! Is it Feng escape? ! An almost invisible sword energy, emitting only a faint green light, struck Qingshui at high speed!

Qingshui decided to use offense instead of defense.

Konohagakure Swordsmanship: Dance of the Three Suns and Moon!

Seeing that Qing Shui was about to be cut in two by the sword energy, three more "Qing Shui" suddenly appeared, making the original fatal blow miss. This sudden reversal surprised everyone.

"This is the swordsmanship created by Senju Tobirama." A calm male voice came from the roof.

"Mifune-sama?! Don't you have something important to go to the country of Takumi?" the butler asked in surprise.

It was a man with a black beard on his mouth and chin, and his head was wrapped in a bandage. A strange samurai wearing green laminated armor and a samurai sword said: "There is such a battle to enjoy, so what if we delay it for a while? This ninja - not bad."

The knife in the field suddenly lost Qing Shui's accurate position, and his extremely fast attack stalled. The moment he put up a defensive posture, a strong wind came from behind. When did it come behind him? Is this the ninjutsu of ninjas? There was no time to think more, so he could only raise the katana with all his strength to bear the killing blow...

The original full-strength attack in the last part of the Three Sun Moon Dance was blocked by the sword seemingly easily. Qing Shui was extremely shocked. This was the first person who could resolve his Three Sun Moon Dance head-on. On the opposite side, Dai Dao was also shocked in his heart. The Wind Escape Sword Qi that he originally created an opportunity to display was not only neutralized by the opponent, but he could also make such a fierce counterattack. If his power had not gained the upper hand...

For a moment, the two of them stopped attacking in unison.

Qing Shui wiped his cheek with his fingers, and a hint of scarlet appeared - it was indeed a scratch just now. The two of them only attacked for a dozen or so rounds, bringing him to the brink of danger several times. They were truly terrifying opponents.

"It's really powerful, then I can let go..." Dai Dao changed the starting position of the katana from an overhand grip to a reverse grip. He lowered his center of gravity slightly and pointed the low-hanging tip of the sword toward the unattended rear.

What is this strange posture for? But it's definitely dangerous! Never let him get close!

Seal!

Water Escape·Water Formation Wall! A powerful ring of water emerges from the ground, and just one breath surrounds it with clear water. With this powerful water wall, Qing Shui breathed a sigh of relief, and then it was his turn to fight back. Through the water formation wall, he could feel that the momentum of the sword had increased to the extreme!

coming soon!

Quickly seal again!

The knife in his field of vision was charging straight towards him! Couldn't he see that the Jōnin-level B-level ninjutsu like the water formation wall was a specialized defensive ninjutsu? ! Moreover, for a straight-line attack, the Water Breaking Wave does not need to be aimed at all.

Water Escape·Water Breaking Wave! Qing Shui's mouth violently spurted out a straight line of ultra-high-pressure water jets! Transformed into a sharp water blade, unlike ordinary water escape techniques, Water Breaking Wave relies on concentrating strong water pressure on a small area, and its destructive power is extremely powerful and can cut the target in an instant.

He thought that the winner would be decided at this moment, but then Qingshui saw a scene that he would never forget in his life - a flash of silver light... and he saw that the S-level attack ninjutsu's water break wave was divided into left and right parts. Two sections... Then the silver light continued unabated, and the water formation wall was cut open from the middle like paper...

He seemed stunned... Seeing the knife getting closer and closer in his field of vision, he stood there without dodging... he just subconsciously raised his left hand...

Another silver light flashed by his side, and in the next moment, there was a crisp "clang" sound, and two samurai swords clashed with each other in front of Qingshui: Okisuke's samurai sword blocked the fatal blow of the sword.

But Qingshui's Chidori was also activated the moment he raised his hand, and an even more dazzling blue-white electric light was seen, covering the two sharp edges of silver light, rushing towards the sword with thousands of birdsong. Originally, Chidori was a ninjutsu that required sprinting from a certain distance to be activated—is this Raikiri?

No! ! Raiqie also needs to form seals, but Qingshui doesn't have any seals at all! This is a brand new Chidori derived ninjutsu! Originally, I wanted to simplify the pre-activation steps of the Chidori Ninjutsu and shorten the seal formation process, but I didn't expect that all of this would come true at this moment of life and death.

The next moment, there was a "bang", and Qing Shui was knocked away with his sword and his body, breaking several big trees in succession, and he was not sure whether he was alive or dead.

At this time, the two shogunate buildings attacked by the water break wave collapsed with a rumbling sound - and then dust filled the sky.

"How does it feel to live and die in the blink of an eye?" Mifune slowly retracted his right foot and said to the two samurai who were still dazed. He then turned to look at the two tall buildings that were torn apart by the water's breaking waves, "Let's go. , you deal with the aftermath, I think the princess knows what to do."

"I know, Boss Mifune. Don't worry, I will take care of everything!" The girl in gorgeous clothes jumped up to Mifune, bowed, and then showed an innocent smile, "I will entertain our guests well."
