Chapter 6, The Legendary Clans

"Hattori, take this!" The elder opened the box placed before the divine seat and took out a ninja long sword, handing it to Hattori Hanzo

Let us simply set this place on fire!

We must leave quickly!" In response to this suggestion, Inugawa wholeheartedly agreed. As the two of them got up and were about to leave, a bullet silently struck Li Wei's shoulder, penetrating his bulletproof vest and piercing into the flesh, the impact causing Li Wei to fall to the ground. "Bang..." The gunshot sound followed shortly after, and Li Wei gritted his teeth, rolling behind a tree, while the soil behind him was again hit by bullets, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Hattori Hanzo suddenly opened his eyes wide, shouted loudly, and instantly moved next to the person at the front. He conjured seven shadows and simultaneously struck with seven blades, causing all seven individuals to fall to the ground, each struck in the center of their foreheads. In the blink of an eye, Hattori Hanzo returned to his original position, maintaining a silent demeanor. This display earned the admiration of the opposing leader, who clapped and exclaimed, "Impressive! Impressive!" Suddenly, over twenty people launched an attack; the clapping served as a signal to strike. Amidst flashes of lightning and thunder, blades intertwined with flames wove into a net, descending upon Hattori Hanzo. Hattori Hanzo suddenly vanished, the sword energy losing its target and sweeping towards the houses behind. In an instant, the bamboo house was shattered into pieces, revealing a large group of small ninjas hiding behind, who screamed in fright and scrambled away.

Because you have only learned to be upright and proper, school will not teach you how to become a tyrant; it will only teach you how to admire heroes. Have you ever considered respecting someone who strikes from the shadows? Even if it is to save the entire world? Probably not, right? The education you have received makes it impossible for you to treat light and darkness fairly, and thus power becomes a burden

The helicopter carried them across Tokyo, but it was not heading to the hospital; rather, it was bound for the suburbs. The pilot flying the aircraft had a sword strapped to his back and an AK47 positioned to his right, resembling a hybrid of an air force soldier and a ninja. "Boss! Is it alright to take him directly to the sacred place?"

Is that the Taoist technique of celestial wind and cloud? But why does it have a dark aura?

Dozens of dark shadows swiftly darted through the forest illuminated by the moonlight, like the wind sweeping by. Such movements did not belong to humans, silently spreading a murderous intent throughout the woods

Roar... Facing the beast charging towards him, Hattori Hanzo showed no signs of retreat, quietly observing as if watching a movie. Bai Mei could feel the wind from his claws penetrating his body, the tips of his claws already brushing against Hanzo's clothing, yet in a moment of ruthless flicker, the Hattori Hanzo before him transformed into an illusion. The feeling of missing his target was akin to being in a desperate situation, unable to open the legs of a beautiful woman. Bai Mei felt he was on the verge of madness, but before he could utter a curse, a sound of a blade slicing through the scalp echoed above him. "It's over!" In an instant, Bai Mei resigned himself to fate, uncertain if he could even close his eyes in time. Again, in a moment faster than lightning, a sharp branch shot through the air towards Hattori Hanzo's heart. Hanzo, with his head down and feet up, found it difficult to move, having to abandon his prey. He lightly tapped above Bai Mei's head, changing direction, and landed on the ground beside him, gazing at the suddenly attacking opponent. The branch did not strike Hattori Hanzo but was instead embedded in the trunk of a large tree, which then ignited fiercely due to friction, instantly turning to ashes.

Hehehe! After all, they do not understand how to enjoy life

Hattori Hanzo felt quite embarrassed, unsure of what to say to Inumaru. He pressed his thumbs against Inumaru's temples and rubbed them for a moment, then patted the back of his head. Inumaru finally released his grip and slowly collapsed to the ground. "You really have a way!" Li Wei exclaimed with delight, rubbing his arm, which bore a large wound that would surely leave a bite mark.

"Shut up! Take her to the detention room!" Someone reluctantly dragged Inugami away, and Hattori Hanzo began to get to the point

Thank you! On a distant rooftop, a man smiled sinisterly, "As a token of gratitude, I will help you kill him... However, you must die alongside him!"

Quickly dodge! Inugami lunged behind the tree, while Li Weiyun activated the Ice Heart Technique to protect himself and swiftly leaped back, but it was still too late. With a loud bang, the sparrow transformed into a fireball and exploded, scattering several people on the ground in a gruesome manner. Li Wei rolled on the ground several times before finally crashing into a tree. Thanks to his internal energy, he was not seriously injured, but the clothes that Toudou Yuki had just bought for him were ruined. Due to the explosion, the small forest caught fire, and the police would arrive soon, making it difficult to explain the situation.

"It flies so high! What should we do?" Inuzuka had no idea at all. Li Wei drew his pistol, and the eagle became alert. The surroundings were shrouded in smoke, making it impossible to hit anything.

Are you Hattori Hanzo? I haven't seen you at the Toudou family! The others should be in the woods over there? Levi gave up, allowing Inumaru to hang above, and pointed to the woods behind him, "An old ninja is leading them, so they could be hiding quite far away now. Really! They probably think I will be taken out soon, and they don't even offer to help. The only one here to help is this guy!" Levi raised his arm, "I was already up there when I woke up; in fact, I was awakened by her bite."

A fire broke out in the small woods of Si Ding Mu! Hurry up! The police and fire brigade have both arrived; the fire brigade is busy extinguishing the flames while the police are searching for the arsonist in areas unaffected by the fire. Eagles are circling above, each searching for their respective targets

Hattori, I have grown old and can no longer use it. The young people have all gone down the mountain, and there are still over three hundred young disciples in the back room. They are our hope, so please ensure that they do not come to harm. I beg you!

"Tsk!" The speaker is a leader with white eyebrows. "Arrogance! As the head of a clan, you are indeed strong, but you are still just an ordinary ninja. Today, let me show you the power of the Demon Sword Technique! If you cannot protect those you are meant to protect, you will have no reason to be arrogant! Mist! Rock Mountain! Kill him! The rest of you, come with me to kill others!"

This century-old tree has grown in such a place! In the back, Inumaru and Li Wei felt extremely fortunate. The other trees were all newly planted; without the presence of this thick trunk, the two of them would have been unable to completely shield their bodies. "Are you okay?" Inumaru asked in fear, "Don't die! I can't escape on my own!"

You... the fork of the wooden Rakshasa was instantly severed. If I hadn't blocked it for a moment, I would have already become a soul under the knife. "You are strong! But you are by no means our match! We, the Demon Ninjas, are the most powerful. The Dragon Ninja clan is destined for annihilation; why sacrifice yourself for them? Join our Demon Ninja clan, and you will receive greater rewards!"

Do not be careless! The Longren clan has been our arch-enemy for two thousand years!

This is really terrible! By the way, where is this place?

This is the settlement of the Dragon Ninja Clan, and it is also a paradise for us to educate the next generation of surviving ninjas. The elder has administered some medicine to you, which allows you to converse with your inner self and helps you regain consciousness. It seems to be quite effective, but your physical body appears to be recovering even faster

Really! Can't they also install a wind turbine? The pigeons have long been unreliable! By the way, Hattori, there is still no mobile signal here; can you think of a way to resolve this?

Qiansui appeared from behind, holding a helmet that had been pierced by a bullet. "Who is over there?" Qiansui widened her eyes, but could not see anyone. Today was her first day at work, and she never expected there would be a case of murder and arson.

The education I have received

A gentle breeze blew towards her, and Qian Sui suddenly caught a whiff of a man's scent, which seemed to carry a hint of warmth. She remained completely composed, noticing that the steam she exhaled vanished just a few centimeters in front of her.

"You don't control me!" Inugami threw down a disjointed remark along with a smoke bomb and vanished. Chihō truly lacked the courage to continue shooting; as the smoke cleared, Levi on the ground was also nowhere to be seen. This was her first time killing someone, and it was someone who had saved her... "Chihō, are you here! What happened? Are you okay?" Looking at her companions who were appearing one after another, Chihō genuinely did not know how to respond

Then, I will be right back

Li Wei exerted force on the opponent's heel, and the latter quickly found it difficult to withstand. "I will talk, I will talk," the foreign mercenary naturally hoped to retain those few important fingers, for them, the ability to continue shooting was what made life meaningful. "Yes..." At that moment, a sparrow flew over, as if enchanted, recklessly landing in the mouth of the fallen.

The eagle cried out, just about to take flight, when a ninja's hand sword appeared out of nowhere, silently and accurately striking its target... In the vicinity, Inumaru was still alive. "Kairo!" the assailant shouted in despair, "Everyone should die!" However, a ninja blade pierced his heart from behind, and the assailant struggled to turn around, looking at the yellow bird behind him, a young man in a trench coat, "You... Hattori Hanzo!"

The internal skills and spells I have cultivated all begin with healing, though there are some differences

Still alive! Impressive! But this is where it ends! The ambusher sneered and loaded another missile, "Kairo! Move away a bit!"

A large net descended silently, while swords and poisoned needles attacked from all directions, making it difficult for even a fly to escape. However, the attacks proved ineffective; although some targets vanished into thin air, as the net slowly fell to the ground, cries of agony echoed through the forest

A ninja dressed in a white ninja outfit flashed and then disappeared

The body of the wood demon gradually faded into the trunk behind it and disappeared. Hattori Hanzo turned around, hoping that the few remaining adults could hold on until now, but he was disappointed. All around were collapsed bamboo houses, and the bodies of the few adult ninjas appeared one after another. "There is still hope! I haven't seen the children's bodies!" Hattori Hanzo looked at the last standing bamboo house, "What could be behind that?" His heart trembled; perhaps behind it was a mountain of corpses? "There is still hope! I haven't seen the children's bodies!" Hattori Hanzo looked at the last standing bamboo house, "What could be behind that?" His heart trembled; perhaps behind it was a mountain of corpses? The smell of blood continuously wafted in, stimulating him and driving him to madness. Hattori Hanzo dared not think any further. He gathered his courage and leaped onto the roof, the scene before him would be etched in his memory for life. Under the moonlight, the slaughterhouse was filled with the scattered bodies of the demon ninjas, not a single complete corpse remained. The massive body of the white-browed beast was slowly collapsing; in fact, its head had already flown off to an unknown location before it fell. Under the moonlight, the slaughterhouse was filled with the scattered bodies of the demon ninjas, not a single complete corpse remained. The massive body of the white-browed beast was slowly collapsing; in fact, its head had already flown off to an unknown location before it fell. The air was filled with the wails of wronged souls, emanating a bone-chilling cold, gradually converging into an extraordinarily long sword, which was being drawn from the body of the white-browed beast. After the corpse fell, the figure of the sword wielder stood there like a strange sculpture.

"Dare to preach while hiding?" Bai Mei sneered, making a gesture. Suddenly, the others rushed towards the house where the children were hiding. As the blades flashed, the two bamboo houses collapsed with a loud crash, but there was no one in sight; the little ninjas had already concealed themselves.

The Longren clan resides in this desolate place

With a loud "bang," a sword aura shattered the fence, leaving deep marks on the ground as it sliced directly towards Hattori Hanzo. Hattori Hanzo remained still, and the sword aura dissipated before him, with only his belt fluttering in the wind.

There! With Inumaru's finger, Li Wei saw an eagle soaring high above the forest.

Thank you for your hard work, Hattori. You are now the leader of the Iga clan, and you must take on this heavy responsibility from now on. No need for too much formality. Inumaru! How dare you descend the mountain without permission! You still know nothing!

From the perspective that bullets travel faster than sound, the opponent is at least one kilometer away. Given this angle, they should be on the rooftop over there. However, the trees are so dense; no matter how good the scope is, how could they possibly see us? What are your thoughts?

Just as Li Wei and Inugami were leaving cautiously, another group of people appeared

Bastard! I thought it was something like a sparrow! This guy is flying too high!

I am also quite worried! Li Wei glanced at the Dark Emperor Sword, "This dark soul power that I obtained by accident is not a result of my own cultivation, so I have always been very cautious. I didn't expect that this time, after being injured, I absorbed it all. I don't know if I can completely refine it within my body; it might affect my consciousness."

Indeed. In my view, the power of darkness is not inherently negative. Light and darkness are both indispensable; however, due to people's simple preference for light and their fear of darkness, they often conflate darkness with evil. Our ancestors, the ninjas, took a long time to understand this principle, teaching us to conceal our brilliance within our hearts, so that we can venture into any dark corner without fear. You too can try to control this power like we do, combining darkness and light, for that is the essence of complete power.

Ah... Someone was pierced in the foot by a knife that suddenly thrust up from the ground, and subsequently lost their life. Bai Mei thrust his sword into the ground, revealing a wooden dummy in place of Hattori Hanzo, who had vanished without a trace. "Do you think that a sword technique imbued with magic is powerful?" Hattori Hanzo's voice echoed eerily in the air, shifting from left to right, "The strength of a ninja lies in concealment, not in ostentation! While you are picking up sesame seeds, you have lost the heart of a ninja!" "Do you think that a sword technique imbued with magic is powerful?" Hattori Hanzo's voice echoed eerily in the air, shifting from left to right, "The strength of a ninja lies in concealment, not in ostentation! While you are picking up sesame seeds, you have lost the heart of a ninja!"

"Do not curse me!" Li Wei touched the wound, sealing the acupoint to prevent excessive blood loss. "I still need to plant several more trees to express my gratitude to nature's grace!"

He must be a ninja, a high-ranking one! Perhaps there are birds providing him with vision! I know there is a high-level ninjutsu called Bird Ninja, which can control the will of birds and allows one to see what the birds see; it is a very advanced ninjutsu

The ninja's blade seeks only to be dull and unadorned, requiring neither the embellishment of flames nor the brilliance of lightning; it desires only to drink deeply of blood, needing neither the power to tear through the sky nor the display of fierce winds. Hattori Hanzo's slow steps, his not particularly tall figure, devoid of any killing intent, evoke an even greater sense of terror. His belt does not even sway, and while his movements appear slow, he is actually closing in on the enemy forces with great speed.

This is no illusion! Hattori Hanzo has nowhere to escape; he attempts to burrow underground, but the suction generated by the whirlwind holds him back. A moment of hesitation plunges him into the greatest crisis of his life. "The members of the Dragon Ninja Clan must all be dead, right? How ridiculous to have Hattori Hanzo from Iga as a bodyguard!" Murosha waits to see the splatter of flesh and blood, but instead, she sees a ray of light tearing through the layers of the withered leaf dance formation, rushing towards her. She hears Hattori Hanzo's heart-wrenching shout: "Iga True Dragon Slash!"

Li Wei removed his motorcycle helmet and took a book down, slightly stretching to the side when suddenly a bullet struck it, making it impossible to leave. "I say, can you ninjas stop hiding and sneaking around? In our China, attacking from the shadows is quite shameful!" Li Wei was not accustomed to this kind of combat where the enemy was unseen. The fire had already spread nearby, and in winter, the ground was covered with dry leaves, producing a lot of smoke that made both of them tear up. Inui and Li Wei were squeezed together, unable to accept the insult directed at Li Wei: "Without my hiding and sneaking, you would have been dead long ago! The fire has already spread nearby, and in winter, the ground is covered with dry leaves, producing a lot of smoke that made both of them tear up. Inui and Li Wei were squeezed together, unable to accept the insult directed at Li Wei: 'Without my hiding and sneaking, you would have been dead long ago! The pride of a ninja is to silently guide victory... cough cough!' Li Wei quickly covered her mouth: 'Exactly, it should be done quietly! Your loud voice can only lead us to an early death! If you were a bit quieter, you would have already become a Jonin! Hurry up and look for it!'

This person has completely caught the attention of the Demon Ninja clan, and possesses extraordinary abilities, certainly not an ordinary soldier! The sword he carries is also quite peculiar

Ninjas themselves are the representatives of dark forces

If I am not mistaken, he is a disciple of the Shushan Immortal Path, but why..." Hattori Hanzo fell into deep thought, as a powerful dark force was hidden within Li Wei, continuously seeping out like a punctured water bag. "He has not yet revealed even one-tenth of his strength, or perhaps he simply does not wish to do so. Why is that?"

In my opinion, it's quite good. Hattori Hanzo pondered for a moment and said, "The problem lies in your education; it is too one-sided."

Ah, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Hattori Hanzō. After you were injured, it was Inumaru and I who brought you here. Thank you very much! Have you seen anyone else?

"What happened? Who exactly are you?" Hattori Hanzo jumped down and cautiously approached. Inugami seemed to be in a state of unconsciousness, merely biting down and refusing to let go. Levi raised his arm, causing Inugami to dangle and sway, which made him furrow his brow. "I still want to ask what’s going on! Do you understand Chinese? That’s great! If you take this off, we’ll all have the answers!" Levi wanted to pinch Inugami's jaw, but he was afraid her chin might come off and damage her facial muscles, so he gently lifted her upper lip with his right hand, revealing two tightly clenched little canine teeth. They were quite cute, but she just wouldn’t let go.

Damn it, if only I had brought my special pistol! Now I can only..." Li Wei picked up two leaves and drew on them with a vermilion brush, handing one to Inugawa: "Invisibility technique! Stick the leaf to your forehead! It can only last for half an hour! Now... slowly walk out!"

Is Hattori Hanzo of Iga? It's a pity, but you must die! We are ... ...

Qiansui discovered that the footprints had vanished, and her intuition told her that the murderer was nearby, just out of sight. This feeling sent chills down her spine. She discarded her broken helmet, drew her pistol, and carefully surveyed her surroundings, but saw nothing. The leaves had clearly been trampled; why had the perpetrator seemingly disappeared? Qiansui stood in front of the last footprint, crouching down to confirm. Her face was merely a step away from Li Wei's leg, and the steam she exhaled brushed against Li Wei's groin. For some reason, Li Wei felt a surge of excitement. The leaves had clearly been trampled; why had the perpetrator seemingly disappeared? Qiansui stood in front of the last footprint, crouching down to confirm. Her face was merely a step away from Li Wei's leg, and the steam she exhaled brushed against Li Wei's groin. For some reason, Li Wei felt a surge of excitement. "How special, I've never seen such a resilient girl! If only I could be a little careless right now..." From the neckline of her crouched position, Li Wei could see a glimpse of her cleavage. "I am taking a risk! But perhaps I don't want to leave right now..." Qiansui's face drew closer and closer. Suddenly, an evil thought arose in Li Wei's mind: if I push forward now, I might just touch her face... This thought, once it emerged, became increasingly difficult to control.

Qiansui struck decisively, pressing the gun against Li Wei's chest: "It's you! No matter who you are, I have to arrest you for murder in Japan!" Li Wei, dazed, suddenly surged up from the ground, tightly embracing Qiansui's waist and charging to the side. "Let go! I'm going to shoot!" Qiansui's hand couldn't break free, ... but the gun remained pressed against Li Wei's chest. In that instant, with no other choice, Qiansui shouted and pulled the trigger. At the same time, a small missile exploded at the original location, the shockwave mixed with flames engulfing everything within a ten-meter radius ...

"Who are you?" Chihiro looked at the suddenly appearing Inumaru, trembling as she raised her handgun. "Who exactly are you?"

"Let's go! What's wrong with you?" Inugawa urged Li Wei, as they dared not move quickly, making time precious. Li Wei, shielding himself with leaves, suddenly stopped. "Don't make a sound! A formidable enemy!"

"Alice! Wait! Alice!" Levi shouted incessantly, as black electric light surged from his wound, enveloping his entire body. ... At some unknown moment, his hand rested on the hilt of the sword, and a surge of energy flowed from the blade, precisely that portion of true essence that had been siphoned away earlier. Levi's wound rapidly healed, and his strength continued to recover

The words of Hattori Hanzo reminded Levi of the moment he assassinated Hawkins for revenge. Right, wrong, pain, happiness—who, besides oneself, can truly articulate these feelings? He pursued fleeting light through dark means, while Wang Jingguo, conversely, liberated the permanent darkness within his heart through light. In the eyes of the public, both individuals erred, yet each believed that neither had made a mistake. Whether it was a well-considered choice or a spur-of-the-moment decision, it was merely fate's lack of alternatives.

No! Only you sorcerers have fallen into darkness! Ninjas walk in the dark, wielding the power of darkness, but there is light in the hearts of ninjas! Forgetting this disqualifies you from being a ninja!" Hattori Hanzo shouted, "Die!" In a flash of blade light, the wooden Rakshasa was cleaved in two, yet still laughed: "You cannot kill me! In the forest, my power is the strongest! The power of darkness grants me immortality, temporarily placing your head on your shoulders..."

In the crisscrossing foothills of Mount Fuji, there are places that ordinary people can never enter, shrouded year-round in mist and snow, where wild pheasants occasionally appear. People often fantasize that ninjas and many unknown secrets are hidden deep within the mountains, and in fact, they are right. In this area surrounded by towering ancient trees, there are several acres of farmland and a few bamboo houses; although simple, they are sufficient to support the lives of hundreds. A helicopter is parked in the only small patch of exposed land, where several ninjas jump up and down, covering the aircraft with canvas and branches, and in the blink of an eye, it disappears from view.

The sound of machine gun fire erupted as several adult ninjas leaped from the ground, unleashing a barrage of bullets. However, the speed of the dark ninjas was astonishingly fast; not only did they evade the bullets, but they also retaliated with shurikens, engaging in a back-and-forth battle. Occasionally, children were killed, their dying screams piercing the air. Suddenly, the forest was shrouded in smoke, and the screams continued. "Hehehe..." Hattori Hanzo's laughter carried an eerie quality that sent chills down one's spine. The dark ninjas emerged from the smoke in the forest, half of them already fallen. Hattori Hanzo appeared like a specter, his sword still sheathed. In an instant, a flash of the blade was seen, and one dark ninja was decapitated, the sword still in its sheath, making it impossible to discern his movements. Suddenly, the forest was shrouded in smoke again, and the screams continued. "Hehehe..." Hattori Hanzo's laughter carried an eerie quality that sent chills down one's spine.

In an instant, a flash of the blade was seen, and one dark ninja was decapitated, the sword still in its sheath, making it impossible to discern his movements.

We should go back and rest for a while! Hattori Hanzo looked at the only bamboo hut, revealing a bitter smile, and took out a bamboo flute, playing a mournful tune. Li Wei picked up Inumaru and entered the hut. Inside, there were tatami mats, but due to the crisis, it appeared quite disordered. Overall, one should be grateful to have a place to sleep. Li Wei leaned against the wall, sitting on the tatami, allowing Inumaru's head to rest on his lap

Your names mean nothing to me! Hattori Hanzo said slowly, his voice deep and melancholic, standing there like a statue.

The wind chime hanging from the roof tinkled twice, interrupting the conversation between Hattori Hanzo and the elder. "Have you broken through the barrier? That was quick!"

What? The wooden Rakshasa desperately dodged, as the blade light flashed again and again, instantly delivering twelve strikes. The wooden Rakshasa could no longer maintain its composure, rolling on the ground repeatedly. When the light faded, the withered leaf circular dance formation had already collapsed, and Hattori Hanzo, covered in wounds, still stood in place, his originally dull blade now shimmering with dazzling brilliance. "The Ninja Dragon Blade?" The wooden Rakshasa even forgot to get up from the ground.

Elder! I have brought Inumaru back!

Grandfather! I ... ...

It is unfortunate! From the moment we met, it was your life on the line! Hattori Hanzo drew his sword, barely drawing a drop of blood, leaving only a corpse that slowly fell to the ground

Understood. Hattori covered his face, removed his trench coat, revealing a traditional ninja outfit. However, there was one notable difference: his clothing seemed to be embroidered with some dimly lit characters, which is quite rare for a ninja. Hattori opened the door and silently vanished into the darkness

Hattori Hanzo realized that he was always a step too late; the enemy was too fast and too numerous. Rather than confronting them head-on, it was better to defend at his own doorstep. Those disciples on duty must have perished, right? May you rest in peace! Hattori Hanzo stood in the courtyard like a mountain, and any invading enemy would have to face him.

Alas! The elder sighed: "If only we had called the person back a little earlier"

"You insist on forcing the ninja hiding in the back to come forward, which is actually not a good idea. Aow..." When Hattori Hanzo said the first part, his face was still filled with a smile, but later he shouted wildly. Murokatsu quickly drew his weapon, a pair of ninja forks, and Hattori Hanzo had already approached, striking down with a single blow.

"One must have light in the depths of their heart?" Li Wei pondered, "Chaos gives rise to Taiji, Taiji divides into the two forms... The Eight Trigrams also represent the duality of Yin and Yang; this statement is indeed accurate. The more one fears, the more easily one falls into darkness. It is better to face the darkness calmly and transform it for one's own use. But what does this have to do with my education?"

Brother, wake up...

Ninja Dragon Blade

What kind of monster is this? Hattori Hanzo took a closer look and realized it was Li Wei, who was currently retracting his sword, with all the coldness dissipating. The reason it appeared monstrous was that Inumaru was clinging to Li Wei's left arm like a mangy dog, still hanging on.

Is this woman incompatible with me? Li Wei felt anxious but did not dare to move. "Foolish woman! ... Please be a little more foolish, okay? Don't be so clever ..." Chihiro followed the faint traces on the ground, slowly approaching, and Li Wei couldn't help but regard the investigative abilities of the Japanese police with newfound respect! ... If only they weren't after him ...! This awkward situation exceeded Li Wei's expectations, and there was also an eagle watching from above ... "Foolish woman! ...

If only they weren't after him ...! This awkward situation exceeded Li Wei's expectations, and there was also an eagle watching from above ...

My name is Murosha, and I am one of the Five Elements of the Demon Ninjas. I tell you this so that you may rest in peace! With the shout, the withered leaves around Hattori Hanzo began to swirl, forming a whirlwind of blade-like leaves that engulfed Hattori Hanzo.

In fact, this time it is a matter that absolutely requires the assistance of the elders...

"What? The Mo Ren clan is holding a public event? Together with the warlords?" The elder fell into deep thought and after a while replied, "Notify all the Shinobi troops to gather back at Chitose, and send someone to deliver a message to Mount Takano to inquire about their situation. Kazemaru, you go there."

"Hmm, you can feel it too, right? This person's dark aura is even more pronounced than ours as ninjas. However, I sense that he shares a similar essence with us; he is a friend." Hattori Hanzo gazed at the unconscious Levi, attempting to understand him through his beast-like intuition

Thank you, Master! After Bai Mei transformed, he lay on the ground to express his gratitude, resembling a bear. "What are you still dawdling for! Hurry up and kill the others!" "Yes, yes!" Bai Mei ran past Hattori Hanzo, who did not dare to act recklessly, focusing all his attention on this sudden and terrifying opponent.

"Bai Mei! You are utterly useless! What a disgrace!" It was a strange female ninja, her voice hoarse, making it impossible to determine her age. Hattori Hanzo suddenly felt a slight tremor; his instincts told him that this was an unprecedented formidable foe

What should we do

Indeed! They are merely a bunch of younglings coming to their demise! The intruders did not pause for a moment, heading straight for the stronghold of the Longren clan, leaving behind corpses nailed to the trees

"Underestimating you is my mistake! I will deal with him, you all go kill others!" Bai Mei glared fiercely at Hattori Hanzo, suddenly throwing his head back and letting out a long, mournful howl that gradually transformed into a bear-like roar. As he roared, his body continued to grow taller, his clothes bursting apart to reveal fur-covered skin, his eyes glowing green in the darkness, becoming a creature that was half bear and half wolf, yet stood upright like a human, towering at least 2.5 meters high. A burst of machine gun bullets struck him, but they had no effect whatsoever. As he continued to roar, his body kept increasing in height, his clothes tearing apart, revealing his fur-covered skin, with his eyes shining green in the night, transforming into a creature that was half bear and half wolf, yet stood upright like a human, standing at least 2.5 meters tall. A burst of machine gun bullets struck him, but they had no effect whatsoever. Bai Mei swiped at the air, and the ninja who was shooting from three zhang away was sent flying as if struck by a giant claw, crashing to the ground, clothes torn and bleeding, unconscious.

Brother, I am going to heaven now. Thank you for avenging me, but you cannot die yet. You still have many things to do, and I will be watching over you

"How strange! There's no other choice but to go back!" Qiansui muttered to herself, standing up as if she was about to turn and leave. Li Wei let out a sigh of relief, secretly blaming himself. As a disciple of Mount Shu, how could he have such filthy thoughts? "It seems that I, as a disciple of Mount Shu, am still just a mortal! I also need a sense of fulfillment. Wait, could it be that the dark forces have influenced me?" Just as Li Wei was pondering this, Qiansui suddenly executed a spinning kick. It was swift and fierce, and with Li Wei lost in thought, it was too late for him to dodge. He was kicked sideways, causing leaves to fall and revealing his presence.

"So clumsy! Is this what Dragon Ninja's disciples look like? Where is the appearance of a true ninja? You have no future!"
