"Bloodline is also a kind of power, which is understandable. This is a precious wealth left by their ancestors, but it is not easy to apply it skillfully."

Qing nodded. Blood successors are limited ninjas. In many cases, their upper limit as ninjas must exceed that of ordinary ninjas.

This is an unshakable fact.

Therefore, there is no problem in considering blood as one of the strengths of ninjas.

"What are their names?"

"Kaguya Kimimaro and Haku are in the fourth grade of the ninja school, but according to the school's judgment, there is no problem for them to graduate early. The two of them already have strength that surpasses most genin. And... they both have

Signs of awakening the limits of blood inheritance.”

Qing replied solemnly.

The Snow Clan's ice escape is very powerful, but the probability of awakening is high, so Ao doesn't think it's anything to be too surprised about.

However, the Kaguya clan’s ‘corpse bone vein’ is an extremely rare talent.

The ability to freely manipulate the bones of the body, the hardness of its bones can even exceed the hardness of steel, making it both a sharp spear and a hard shield.

"Is that so? It seems that these two people are ranked first and second in their grades."

Yagura made this judgment.

"No, the situation may be different from what you expected, Mizukage-sama."

Qing smiled bitterly at this time.

"What's wrong?"

"The two of them ranked second and third respectively in their grade, not first and second."

"Second and third? Are there any students in the school who can surpass them?"

Yagura felt incredible.

Qing helplessly shrugged his shoulders.

"Mahiru Kazuhime... no, it should be Chiba Kazuhime, she is the top four-year student."

"It's that child."

When Yagura heard Ao say this, he was not surprised at all.

He had already heard from Shiraishi about Ichiki's abnormality. It would not be an exaggeration to say that she was a humanoid tailed beast in a seal.

If it were the opponent, it would not be strange to defeat someone of the same age as the Kaguya clan and the Snow clan.

"In short, we need to strengthen the teaching of outstanding students in ninja schools. In the past, due to the blood mist policy, many children who were still developing were killed in the graduation exam. We cannot let this tragedy happen again."

"yes."

Qing responded solemnly.

Although the Blood Mist Policy cultivated a group of powerful Kirigakure ninjas, Kirigakure also sacrificed countless outstanding seeds for this purpose.

As a result, among the younger generation of ninjas in Kirigakure, there are very few people who can carry the banner.

More people killed each other with their companions when they graduated from the ninja school and died in the graduation exam.

This is Kirigakure’s painful history that deserves to be remembered throughout his life.

When you are alone outside, no matter how vigilant you are, it is never too much.

Kisame asks himself this all the time, walking on the wild road shrouded in moonlight, surrounded by the vast dark scenery.

He was holding a corpse in his hand, which was the target of his bounty mission.

He is a jounin-level defector ninja from Sand Hidden Village in the Land of Wind. He is on the defector list, grade A, and has a bounty of twelve million taels.

Kisame spent ten days collecting information and two days to kill the opponent for sure.

It is very difficult to catch these defecting ninjas running around.

One of the few sources of information he has now is the underground black market.

But the information is not provided free of charge; it needs to be purchased with money.

Therefore, every time a bounty is obtained, part of it must be paid to the underground black market platform.

This undoubtedly increased the pressure on Kisame to survive in the outside world.

However, once he got through the initial period and gradually became more comfortable with his job as a bounty hunter, Kisame could generally be considered satisfied with his current life.

At least compared to the early days, his survival pressure was greatly reduced.

Walking on the path in the wild, Kisame looked at the incomplete moon in the sky, and the teeth in his mouth began to grin.

"Here we go again, which way are we from..."

The bright moonlight suddenly dimmed, not because of the dark clouds in the sky, but because of a very suspicious fog that shrouded the surrounding environment and swallowed up the surrounding darkness.

It gives people a very cold feeling, with waves of murderous intent passing through the air, biting to the bone.

The art of Kirigakure.

It is the vision-obscuring ninjutsu that the Kirigakure Village pursuit troops are best at.

It is said that the high-level Kirigakure Jutsu can prevent even the Sharingan of the Konoha Uchiha clan, and cannot be blown away by wind release.

During the Blood Mist period, Kirigakure was notorious for pursuing troops, and used extremely ruthless methods to intimidate both internal and external forces.

Even Kisame was extremely fearful of the power of this army.

As a unit under the direct control of Mizukage, they are all composed of elite ninjas from Kirigakure Village, and their strength is extraordinary.

It is undoubtedly very unwise to fight these people alone.

A large number of kunai were quickly thrown out from the thick fog, all attacking the vital parts.

Without hesitation, Kisame let go of the body of the bounty target, waved the sword Samehada he took from behind with one hand, and flicked away all the kunai that flew towards him.

As a defecting ninja, it is inevitable to be targeted by the ninjas who are chasing the troops.

Although these people did not know the truth about his defection, since they were chasing him, Kisame would not let them attack and remain indifferent.

"Water Release: Water Shark Bullet Technique!"

The water that gathered around Kisame instantly turned into an extremely ferocious shark, opening its sharp teeth and charging into the thick fog.

Wow!

The shark formed by the water flow came into contact with a tall water wall, causing the water flow to break up, and the splashing water droplets fell to the ground like rain, bringing a sense of moisture.

After that, another water dragon flew out of the thick fog, which was the water dragon bullet technique.

It is a powerful water escape ninjutsu that many Kirigakure Village ninjas are very accustomed to and skilled in.

Judging from the size of the water dragon and the chakra content in it, the ninja who performs this water escape technique is undoubtedly a jounin-level ninja.

Kisame made a sound, turned around and left the place, leaving the body of the bounty target aside without even bothering to take it away.

Bounty hunting is just a way for him to attract "customers". If he gets hurt here for money, in Kisame's opinion, it is very unworthy.

Even if he loses this business, he will not be so depressed that he cannot survive.

At this time, the most important thing is to think about how to successfully escape from the chasing troops in Kirigakure Village.

This group of people didn't know the truth about his defection from the Ninja Village, so they came to hunt him down as a defecting ninja. Behind them, Mizukage Yagura signaled.

Kisame had been mentally prepared for this, but every time he encountered something like this, he still felt terrible.

And this embarrassing life is just the beginning.

The road ahead will be even more difficult.

The only good thing is that the ninjas who came to hunt him down will definitely not target his water escape ninjutsu.

This was also the secret consensus between Yagura and him.

After all, Kirigakure Village has a huge ninja base, and there will always be some ninjas with special abilities who can restrain Kisame's ninjutsu.

Doing so would inevitably put Kisame himself in danger of death.

This kind of thing will be avoided as much as possible.

It doesn't matter if you can take some drastic measures when necessary.

The sound of whooshing could be heard from behind, and the ninja who was chasing the troops persisted in pursuing Kisame.

For Kirigakure Village, a wandering S-class defecting ninja may endanger the security and stability of the village and the country in the future.

Especially when a ninja like Kisame, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, defected from the village, he knew too many secrets about Kirigakure. Once these secrets were leaked, it would cause an extremely unfavorable situation for Kirigakure Village.

This dangerous and unstable defecting ninja must be eliminated as soon as possible, which is the meaning of the existence of the pursuit force.

"It's so annoying, these guys, if they continue like this, they will just keep catching up with them."

Not to mention the pursuing troops from other villages, Kisame was well aware of the persistent attitude of the pursuing troops in Kirigakure Village.

Faced with the hatred and rejection of the traitors, this group of people almost reached a level of distortion and perversion.
