Relying on her extraordinary physique, Kazuhime tried her best to resist all Kuroda's attacks, but then she felt something strange about the collision between the Kusanagi sword and the katana.

Seeing that the sword he struck with all his strength was easily deflected by Kuroda, Kazuhime was not discouraged. The opponent's skills were far superior to his own, so it was natural for him to be able to do this.

Kuroda could feel that Kazuhime was not an ordinary ninja. Such a person, even a woman, was worthy of killing.

pitch black——

Ichihime touched the Kusanagi sword on her waist.

As soon as the word was pronounced, Kuroda's figure flashed in front of Ichiki at a speed as fast as lightning.

Kuroda ignored Ichihime's words and didn't care what the other person's intention was in coming to him. Instead, he used Ichihime's identity to think of the Konoha White Fang who was once famous in the ninja world.

Ohnoki responded calmly, saying he didn't think there would be any problems with hiring the Black Moon Clan.

Kuroda touched the only scar on his right cheek.

There was such a warrior in this burned village.

Even if the influence is beginning to shrink now, you will suffer a loss if you underestimate it too much.

For the alliance, the loss is just some money.

Moreover, each knife struck directly at the fatal position of Yiji's body.

The wrist twists, and the katana dances accordingly.

Ichiki smiled, took out the Kusanagi sword with her right hand, and held the Kusanagi sword tightly in her hand with a standard sword-holding posture, without any bias.

As the leader of the Black Moon Sect, Kuroda was extremely surprised when he heard the amount of the reward.

"Draw your sword and chop."

Since the leader, the Fourth Raikage, and Konoha's Hokage, Tsunade, went to Turtle Island, the only senior leaders of the alliance who remained at the headquarters at this time were Tsuchikage Onoki, Kazekage Rasa, and Mizukage Terumi Mei.

"Even if my opponent is a woman, I will go all out. And if my sword can be stained with your blood, my swordsmanship will be even better."

The swordsmanship is too standard and rigid, without much flexibility, but the speed and strength are very strong. After a short exchange, Kuroda has already figured out the general situation of Kazuhime.

"..."

As Yi Ji’s words came to light——

The sharp and cold sword light appeared in the air, easily cutting through the obstruction of the air. Coupled with Kuroda's lightning speed, even the most experienced ninja would have a headache.

"Chiba Kazuhime, Chiba Shiraishi, the Minister of Military Affairs of the Demon Country, and the daughter of Uchiha Ruri, the current leader of the Uchiha clan in the Demon Country... The bounty is 140 million taels. It's a big fish."

"Hey, what you're using isn't a sword at all—"

"Come out, I've found you."

Perhaps because he hadn't held a sword for too long, the reclusive samurai's swordsmanship seemed to Kuroda to be very slow. In despair, Kuroda killed him with a single sword.

He quickly took out a pamphlet and rummaged through it to find the reward list for the girl.

Money is just an excuse for them to kill.

She could not imagine the speed that an old man over sixty could display.

Judging from the other party's clothing and aura, it was definitely not because of wealth and power that his bounty reached this level.

A samurai wearing a hat from the Black Moon Clan came forward and lowered his head next to the old man Kuroda with a respectful attitude and a hint of awe in his tone.

Those were the marks that someone had cut open with a sharp knife.

And if it is a ninja or samurai, it must be a strong person in the famous town.

It flashed past Yiji's eyes.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Kazuhime felt something strange in Kuroda's sword style.

Maybe in his opinion, the samurai's sword has become so dull that he is no longer worthy of being a samurai.

Mifune's face turned serious.

So fast! Even though she overestimated Kuroda's speed as much as possible, after the actual battle, she found that Kuroda's speed was still underestimated.

"Next, you guys wait here for the Raikage and Hokage to come back. While the reserve funds are still sufficient, I need to contact some more bounty hunters and let them serve as cannon fodder for the alliance."

"...The Kingdom of Iron."

"Yes, he likes to scare the enemy with killing. I once heard that after he left the Iron Kingdom, he massacred the famous mansion of a small country because of a bounty mission, and became famous. After that, his various actions also became famous.

He kills everyone, leaving no one alive, and is obsessed with killing. The so-called bounty mission is just an excuse for him to find strong people to kill. This kind of thing is really..."

"The end justifies the means?"

The handle of the katana is black, which is the same color as the black armor on the old man's body.

The leader was an old man over sixty years old, with gray hair, wrinkles on his face, and a scar on the right side of his face. His eyes were as calm and deep as dead water, and he stared quietly at the village covered by fire not far away, causing

There was a faint flame dancing in his eyes.

For her, as long as she can hit the enemy, that's all.

"you……"

"Um?"

Kuroda Furui Muha's eyes finally lost their calmness, as if he had seen something incredible. He looked at Kazuhime's chest where not a drop of blood flowed out under the sudden stab of the katana, and his pupils widened in shock.

The Kusanagi sword and the katana collided in the air again, causing sparks to fly.

It's not that he is deceived by money, but that a person with a bounty of this level, a businessman or an official, must have a lot of wealth or a lot of power.

Confirming this again, Kuroda's breathing rhythm began to change, and the light in his eyes became darker, but in the darkness, there was a faint light, which was very strange.

Silence dominates this space.

Mei Terumi also joined the conversation.

Kuroda replied matter-of-factly, saying he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

"Kuroda? That black warrior from the black market?"

Before Kuroda could finish speaking, a frightening aura came out of Kazuhime's body. Even Kuroda, who was accustomed to killing, was so nervous that he couldn't continue to speak.

Even if Susanoo is enabled to use the Chakra Sword, it will only be violently dismantled by physical Chakra.

"Secret Sword Technique·Black Teeth!"

Luo Sha spoke out at this time.

This old man named Kuroda can definitely do this kind of thing.

"too late."

Ichiki didn't dare to blink. If she made a mistake, Kuroda would touch her throat with the knife.

"Mr. Kuroda's swordsmanship is unmatched in the world. This is an undoubted fact. The so-called generals of the Iron Kingdom are just people in name only. After all, if a sword is not stained with blood every day, it will become extremely slow."

Although she has a sword of the same level as the Kusanagi Sword, she has not undergone systematic swordsmanship training. After all, she is a ninja, not a samurai, and will spend a lot of time on swordsmanship.

Using black market bounty hunters to attack the enemy in war has been Ohnoki's usual method.

Kazuhime took out a photo of Kuroda. It was an old man with white hair and wrinkles on his face. His eyes were as calm and turbid as stagnant water. Staring at it for a long time gave people a terrifying feeling of being swallowed up by this stagnant water.

After all, the belief that the Black Moon people believe in is not money, but killing.

So, he held his breath, held the hilt of the katana in his right hand, and assumed a stance for the attack with a more precise posture than Ichiki.

Moreover, even he has heard of the name Chiba Kazuhime.

Just like the shrine maidens of the Oni Kingdom and the Ninja Temples of the Five Great Countries, before the era of one country and one village came, before that, shrine maidens, samurai, and monks were all flourishing.

Kazuhime smiled freely, she and Kuroda seemed not to be enemies, but a pair of old friends reunited after a long absence.

"Samurai... a product of the old era. I never thought that such an existence would exist in this era. The killing sword might bring me a lot of fun."

As the person involved, Kazuki, after blocking Kuroda's attack again, finally confirmed something, and her face changed slightly.

The second job is to find powerful samurai from all over the ninja world. Their leader Kuroda hopes to fight with all the superb swordsman samurai in the ninja world in order to hone his sword skills.

They only want to use the power of Kuroda and the Black Moon Clan. As for Kuroda's character and methods, there is no point in exploring them.

Moreover, Kuroda's swordsmanship is different from Mifune's concept of "harmony". He attaches great importance to killing and has completely trained himself into a killing sword!

In terms of swordsmanship, he is more dangerous than General Mifune of the Iron Kingdom.

They usually only have two jobs, one is to accept bounty tasks from the black market, and only large bounty tasks with a bounty of more than 20 million taels are eligible to be taken over by them.

This abnormality made Yiji feel a little familiar, as if she had encountered the same situation when fighting someone in the past.

Although the era of samurai has long passed, Terumi Mei will not underestimate this group too much.

"Uchiha Fire Formation!"

Mifune looked at Kuroda's photo and couldn't help but sigh when he saw those eyes as silent as a pool of stagnant water.

Fengying Luosha also seemed to have remembered something and said suddenly.

Rather than a battle between samurai and ninjas, it is more like two jet-black lightnings colliding with each other at extremely high speeds.

The katana that fit tightly with the scabbard was unsheathed in an instant, cutting out a cold crescent moon light in Ichiji's eyes. The sharp aura made the skin of Ichiji's face feel the chill of the frozen blood.
