Without the control of the four Human Ninjas, the vines lost their sense of direction and no longer curled towards Leo and Fire Rose like agile snakes.
“Attack separately!” Leo said, looking at Fire Rose who was close by.
“Got it!” Fire Rose replied with a gentle exhale.
The two immediately separated in mid-air. With a push from Leo, Fire Rose rushed towards the west while he headed east. After landing on the ground, two Upper Ninjas who had just interrupted their transmission were less than four meters away from him.
“Ninjutsu, Ice Blade!”
“Ninjutsu, Great Fireball!”
The reaction speed of both Upper Ninjas was not slow at all. As soon as Leo landed on the ground, they had already formed hand seals to launch an attack.
However, their attacks posed no threat to Leo. He simply made a gesture with his right hand and hundreds of ice cones instantly formed in front of him. With another push forward, he directly broke through both Upper Ninja’s ice blades and fireballs.
Also, at the same moment as the Ice Blade and Fireball shattered, Leo unleashed the Gale Technique and almost instantly appeared behind the two Upper Ninjas.
Two energy blades were released.
A spurt of blood simultaneously gushed from the necks of the two Upper Ninjas, and they slowly fell to the ground.
“Hah!” Witnessing the two Upper Ninjas being slain, the Human Ninja who had been resisting the purple radiance to the east cursed angrily and formed hand seals once again.
“Sand Art, Demon’s Claw!”
At the Human Ninja’s low shout, the earth beneath them suddenly transformed into a giant hand over three meters tall, swooping down towards Leo.
Leo’s body swayed, evading the descending giant hand, and with his hands forming seals, ten energy blades simultaneously attacked the Human Ninja from both sides.
Knowing Leo’s strength, the Human Ninja didn’t dare to resist head-on and quickly retreated.
“Trying to escape? It’s too late!” After releasing the energy blades, Leo summoned the Nine Abyss Suppresses Evil Peak and threw it forward.
“Gravity Suppression!” Leo’s right hand formed seals as he shouted.
A muffled sound of “buzz” was heard as a layer of black mist spread from the Nine Abyss Suppresses Evil Peak, enveloping an area of ten meters in almost the blink of an eye.
The Upper Ninja couldn’t escape the range covered by the mist and suddenly felt a sensation akin to being crushed by a mountain, greatly slowing down their desperate retreat.
The Upper Ninja cursed once again, preparing to unleash their full body’s ninja power to counter the gravitational oppression, but the silent energy blades had already struck their body.
Several grim blood holes appeared on the Upper Ninja’s upper torso.
The Human Ninja’s eyes widened in shock, their face expressing disbelief and unwillingness, as they straightened up and fell to the ground.
On the cliff, Maniwa, who witnessed this scene with her own eyes, had her initially rosy complexion turn pale.
“Inada, the Human Ninja!” Yuriko exclaimed in shock. The Inada Human Ninja, who was slightly stronger than her, was killed so easily by that boy named Leo!
“How is this possible? How did Leo’s strength suddenly become so powerful?” If Maniwa hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed that Leo could kill the Inada Human Ninja so easily.
Each Human Ninja was an extremely valuable asset to the Koken family.
The entire Koken family had a total of only twenty Human Ninjas, and losing one would weaken the overall strength of the Koken family by a fraction.
Yuriko pointed her finger and said, “Miss Koken, look at what Leo is holding!”
Maniwa quickly used a telescope to focus her gaze on Leo’s right hand.
The Nine Abyss Suppresses Evil Peak had returned to Leo’s hand, and the black mist that had spread out had also retracted back into the body of the Nine Abyss Suppresses Evil Peak.
“What is that thing exactly?” Through the high-powered telescope, Maniwa could clearly see the Nine Abyss Suppresses Evil Peak in Leo’s hand, but she had no idea what it was.
Yuriko speculated, “When Mr. Yonamine disciplined him last time, he didn’t bring out that thing. It seems he obtained it recently, and it should be some kind of powerful attacking treasure.”
“Damn it! If I had known, there was no need to let him divorce. I should have directly captured him and brought him back to the family!” Maniwa clenched her silver teeth.
Last time, the reason she only severely injured Leo was to make him divorce, sever all his ties in Atraria, and then persuade him to serve the Koken family.
If necessary, Maniwa could even marry Leo and exchange her body for the essence of Yin-Yang techniques.
But now, Maniwa suddenly realized that controlling Leo was not so easy.
Yuriko noticed Maniwa’s concern and reassured her, “Miss Koken, even if Leo has made progress in his cultivation and obtained some kind of treasure, as long as Mr. Yonamine takes action, he will surely capture him alive.”
In the open space of the forest.
The two Human Ninjas from the south, the four Upper Ninjas from the north, immediately converged towards the east after the Human Ninja and Upper Ninja to the east were slain by Leo.
Leo was waiting for them to come closer, once again brandishing the Nine Abyss Suppresses Evil Peak, and the black mist rapidly spread out.
The four Upper Ninjas and two Human Ninjas had no idea what the spreading black mist was, and without exception, they were enveloped by it.
“Miss Koken, Leo’s hand once again released a black mist-like object resembling a small mountain!” Yuriko exclaimed urgently.
Maniwa naturally saw it too and instinctively clenched her fist.
The four Upper Ninjas and two Human Ninjas enveloped by the black mist suddenly felt a heavy sensation, as if a powerful pressure had been added to their bodies.
“Energy blades technique!”
Leo immediately summoned six energy blades, targeting the throats of the six ninjas!
The feeling of danger became palpable. The two Human Ninjas with the fastest reactions unleashed their ninja power to withstand the immense pressure. Their bodies shifted to the left, narrowly avoiding the lethal energy blades.
The four Upper Ninjas, with their slower reactions and inferior strength, were unable to evade in time. The four energy blades sliced across their necks.
As blood sprayed wildly, four bodies fell to the ground.
The two Human Ninjas who had dodged the energy blade attacks realized the terrifying nature of the black mist and desperately tried to escape its coverage.
One of the Human Ninjas successfully broke free from the mist, while the other was about to make it out…
A cold smirk appeared on Leo’s lips as he activated his Spiritual Power, infusing it into the Nine Abyss Suppresses Evil Peak.
The black mist instantly expanded, spreading from a range of ten meters to twenty meters, and the gravitational force doubled once again.
The Human Ninja, who was on the brink of escaping, suddenly froze in place, with even their feet sinking into the soil.
At that moment, Leo unleashed the Purple Radiance.
A purple light flashed, and the Human Ninja, clutching their neck, fell to the ground with a look of shock, fear, and unwillingness. The terrifying pressure directly crushed their bones.
After the Nine Abyss Suppresses Evil Peak retracted the black mist, five more bodies appeared on the ground, including four Upper Ninjas and one Human Ninja.
Thus, on Maniwa’s side, six Upper Ninjas and two Human Ninjas had fallen.
On the cliff, Maniwa’s hand holding the telescope trembled uncontrollably. The anger and shock in her heart had reached an indescribable level.
