Naruto: By lying low and hiding, he eventually became the leader of the Legendary Sannin.

He never showed mercy when carrying out missions.

No matter what kind of opponent he faces, he can strike ruthlessly and leave no future trouble.

That's because he knew one thing very well from his past life, having read numerous films, television shows, and novels.

Villains die from talking too much, and saints are eliminated in chaotic times.

In this environment where peace has not yet been truly achieved, if you don't kill the enemy in front of you while carrying out a mission, their weapon will pierce your body the next second.

However, outside of combat, Kagura would not hesitate to show his mercy.

When the enemy loses the ability to harm him, he will always subconsciously spare the enemy's life.

Kagura was well aware of these things, but he didn't care.

Human nature is not black and white; as long as you follow your heart, that's enough.

Having successfully completed his mission, Kagura stood atop a massive tree canopy, squinting as he gazed into the distance, trying to pinpoint the location of his final destination.

However, several loud noises came from afar. Kagura turned her head and looked over, but only saw some smoke rising from that place.

"Wow, are battles between genin this intense?"

The battle in the distance piqued his interest, and he activated his Sharingan, deciding to secretly watch the live stream.

But when he saw that blurry figure in the smoke, his heart skipped a beat.

"This is... the Seven Swordsmen?"

Before he could think any further, he saw Tsunade being blasted away by the explosion caused by the explosive blade, Splash, in the hand of Jinpachi Munashi.

Seeing this, Kagura felt a chill run through her veins.

Without much thought, he immediately activated the fifth gate of the Eight Gates Formation – the Gate of Blockage.

During the period when the gate is open, he will greatly increase his speed, even exceeding the speed of sound!

(To reiterate, the protagonist's current physical skill attribute progress is: Physical Skill: Sixth Gate, View Gate, progress 67.2%.)

This means his body can perfectly control the state of the fifth gate. Although the sixth gate can also be opened, there will be significant aftereffects.

In addition to opening the Eight Gates, he also used the Chidori Stream, all in order to make himself even faster.

His body transformed into a bolt of lightning, rushing towards Tsunade at breakneck speed.

Finally, at the last moment, he saved Tsunade from Juzo Biwa's sword.

Ignoring the Seven Swordsmen enemies, Kagura turned her back to them and carefully examined Tsunade in her arms.

This was a weakened state of Tsunade that he had never seen before, with blood trickling from the corner of her mouth, her face contorted in pain, and her eyes tightly closed.

The part of its back that was hit had a huge wound, which was constantly dripping blood.

She forced her eyes open, and the moment she saw Kagura's face, she finally relaxed.

"Can you treat yourself?"

Looking at Tsunade, who was still conscious, Kagura asked softly.

Kagura breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Tsunade nod.

He gently placed her next to a tree and let her sit on the ground against the trunk.

He knelt down, gently patted her head, and said:

"You don't need to worry about this anymore. Just focus on your treatment. I'll take care of things here very soon."

At this moment, Tsunade no longer possessed her usual ruthless and bandit-like demeanor. Instead, she nodded obediently and said "Mmm" like a weak little girl.

Kagura smiled at Tsunade, stood up, and slowly turned to face the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.

As he turned around, his entire demeanor changed.

One second he was a gentle young man, the next he turned into an angry beast.

As he grew angrier, his Sharingan seemed to become even redder than before, and the slowly rotating tomoe drew people in unconsciously.

Looking at the eager crowd ahead, Kagura no longer suppressed his anger, and a slightly hoarse voice came from his mouth:

"You bunch of scum, you dare to hit my woman?"

Kagura, whose back was to Tsunade, didn't notice that Tsunade's face turned bright red after he said those words.

She wasn't in a hurry to get treatment. Instead, she cupped her face in her hands and looked at the boy's back with starry eyes.

At this moment, Kagura was like a war god from mythology, and the opening of the fifth gate caused him to exude a faint red aura.

The lightning formed by the Thousand Birds resembled electric snakes, constantly moving around his body.

Since Kagura appeared, Juzo Biwa had been on high alert, gripping his large sword tightly.

Before he could make a move, a figure suddenly rushed towards Kagura ahead of him.

It was none other than Kushimaru Kurihara, wielding a long sword and sewing needle!

He gripped the sharp, long sword and thrust it fiercely at Kagura, who stood before him.

Seeing Kagura seemingly motionless, a sinister smile appeared beneath his mask as he prepared to savor the exquisite sensation of the long sword piercing through his flesh.

However, the next second, to his astonishment, Kagura suddenly turned into a blur.

He heard a whooshing sound and before he knew what was happening, he felt himself being kicked hard.

His body was sent flying at an even greater speed than when he arrived, crashing to the ground like a meteorite, kicking up a cloud of smoke.

Upon seeing this, Pipa Juzo, who was standing at the very front, nervously swallowed.

Kushimaru Kurihara, who was in the middle of it, might not know what was going on, but he, who had been watching, saw it very clearly.

Facing the agile Kushimaru Kurihara, Kagura evaded and fought back in a mere instant.

The previous investigation into him only revealed that his eye techniques and ninjutsu were very strong, but no one had ever mentioned that his taijutsu was also so monstrous!

At this moment, the rest of the group finally abandoned their previous leisurely demeanor and took out their weapons to surround Kagura.

Meanwhile, Kagura slowly retracted her right leg that had been kicked out.

A hint of disdain flashed through Kagura's mind as she watched the figure being sent flying.

Are you kidding me? Trying to outrun me who's already opened the fifth gate?

If this isn't fast enough for you, I might as well quit the ninja profession and find a secluded place to live out my life in peace.

Looking up at the Seven Swordsmen surrounding him, a smile appeared on his face.

He lightly brushed the dust off his clothes, looked at the crowd seriously, and said with unparalleled arrogance:

"I don't ask for much; Tsunade probably hasn't finished her mission yet."

"Of the seven of you, if one stays, I'll let you go."

Chapter 51 The Seven Swordsmen are getting a replacement.

"Of the seven of you, if one stays, I'll let you go."

Hearing these incredibly arrogant words, a surge of anger rose in everyone's hearts.

Even though they clearly had the numerical advantage, it was as if he had surrounded them all.

Seemingly oblivious to the anger radiating from everyone's faces, Kagura calmly continued:

"So, have you decided which one to keep?"

Hearing Kagura's provocation, which sounded like she was truly determined to defeat them, the group finally couldn't hold back any longer.

The first to take action were the "ruthless duo".

"I'll leave you here!!!"

Wuli Shenba burst out from the crowd and leaped high into the air.

While roaring, he raised the huge Exploding Blade - Flying Spray in his hand and slammed it down hard at Kagura.

Kagura, who was arrogant and domineering just a second ago, seemed to be completely oblivious to his attack.

Wu Li Shenba was furious, but his face became even more ferocious.

He increased the force in his hand again, smashing it hard towards the unsuspecting Kagura.

"boom!"

A huge explosion rang out, and Kagura's body flew sideways as if she had been slapped away.

However, his attacks did not stop.

Having just landed, Munari Jinpachi adjusted his body slightly and rushed back towards the direction Kagura had flown out.

He rushed to Kagura's side in mid-air, arriving faster than her, and swung his Exploding Blade: Frozen Spray once more.

Another loud bang rang out, and Kagura's flight path was changed by the violent explosion.

Thus, amidst the sinister grin of Muri Jinpachi, Kagura was repeatedly slapped away by him like a ping-pong ball.

The constant explosions left noticeable wounds on Kagura's body, and the flying flesh and blood drove Jinpachi Murashi into a state of frenzy.

However, in reality...

After Muri Jinpachi shouted that angry roar, to the astonishment of Biwa Juzo and the others, his forward-rushing body suddenly stopped halfway.

Wu Li Shenba seemed to be possessed, his hands hanging down and his body standing upright in place.

Even from the side, you can still clearly see the expression on his face.

His expression kept changing, from a sinister grin at the beginning to a maniacal, heartfelt laugh at the end.

Those who witnessed this strange scene felt a cold sweat break out on their backs.

At this moment, without needing anyone to remind them, they knew that their companion had fallen under Kagura's illusion.

Pipa Juzo took a half-step back in fright, but still remembered to warn him:

Don't look into his eyes!

However, his reminder came too late.

Although he quickly shifted his gaze away from Kagura's face, those strange and beautiful Sharingan eyes seemed to be imprinted in his mind, lingering there for a long time.
