I'm in Konoha, and I have ten skill slots.

"how is this possible?"

Zabuza was shocked. At his age, Shigure was still using such a conventional ninja sword. How could he possibly be a match for him in terms of strength?

"Monster-like wrist strength!"

Kakashi shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly.

Naruto, on the other hand, was quite excited: "Go for it, Shigure! Take him down!"

"How exactly does this guy train?" Sasuke wondered why Shigure's power was so astonishing at the same age.

"I never expected this! I never expected that a mere genin like you would have such amazing arm strength. It seems you were born with superhuman strength!"

This is the only reasonable explanation now. Zabuza is a little envious of such a gifted brat.

They have too much of an advantage in cultivation.

Shigure was misunderstood, but he had no intention of explaining.

It has been more than a day since he left Konoha. With three advanced taijutsu skills currently active in his passive skill bar, Shigure's physique has improved by leaps and bounds.

Now Shigure also wants to test how much his strength has increased in just over a day.

His free left hand suddenly gripped the knife handle, and he held the knife with both hands.

The moment Daigo gripped the sword with both hands, Zabuza's eyelids twitched wildly.

He could withstand the power of Shigure before, but now he can't at all.

The moment Shigure exerted force with both hands, Zabuza's arm veins bulged violently, and his eyes instantly turned bloodshot.

Before the veins on his forehead could even bulge, Shigure directly knocked him back.

Wow wow wow!!

Shigure wielded his black sword, Zangetsu.

It swept lightly through the air, instantly creating a gust of wind that howled outwards.

Seeing Zabuza retreat five or six meters before slowly regaining his footing, Shigure accelerated and rushed over.

"Come again!"

The black sword Zangetsu looks slender and lacks any sense of power, but in Shigure's hands, its power attribute is off the charts.

Qiang~~

Qiang~~

Clang~~~

Shigure slashed wildly, pressing forward relentlessly and giving Zabuza no time to breathe.

Kakashi was stunned by Shigure's crazy actions!

This has absolutely no swordsmanship involved; it's pure, unadulterated brute force.

He doesn't talk to you about techniques at all. Shigure's swordsmanship is obviously incredibly exquisite, but he defeats you with your most prized strength without even using it.

Seeing Zabuza struggling to defend himself with his Executioner's Blade, looking utterly miserable, Kakashi suddenly felt sorry for the guy.

But how did Shigure, at his age, cultivate his strength to such a level?

Was this kid not even using his full strength when he fought me before?

Kakashi found this very unbelievable.

boom! ! !

suddenly!

A particularly crisp cracking sound rang out.

The blade of the Executioner's Blade shattered instantly, and Kakashi gasped as he watched the scattered fragments of the blade fly around.

How powerful must one be to shatter the opponent's blade?

Bang! Bang! Bang!

After five or six consecutive slashes, Zabuza jumped away, widening the distance between himself and Shigure.

Shiyu did not give chase immediately.

..... ....... ...

Standing there, looking at the unscathed black sword Zangetsu in his hand, he thought, "The special metal Tenten uses is incredibly hard; it's completely undamaged. Looks like I'll have to thank Tenten properly when I get back. This Zangetsu is truly outstanding."

Meanwhile, Zabuza stared wide-eyed at the cleaver in his hand, which was riddled with nicks.

I can't believe it, the Executioner's Blade was shattered like this.

Although the blade did not break directly, the edge was either chipped or broken.

Then look at Shigure, he's clearly just a kid in his teens.

How could such power exist!

This is practically a humanoid behemoth!

"Damn brat..."

The words had barely left his lips when Shigure suddenly looked up and charged toward Zabuza with lightning speed.

This time, instead of violently slashing at Zabuza, Zangetsu no Michi was thrust directly at Zabuza's chest.

Zabuza raised his Executioner's Blade, preparing to suppress Shigure's Zangetsu.

However, the next second, Shigure slightly flicked his blade, deflecting Zabuza's blade with a single strike, and then slashed directly at Zabuza's arm.

Zabuza was completely stunned. Not only could he not win in terms of strength, but this kid's swordsmanship had also completely defeated him.

one strike!

He ruined his own sword with a single blow.

His swordsmanship, which he was so proud of, was utterly insignificant in front of this kid...

Swish!

Blood dripped down the blade of Zangetsu.

It kept dripping down!

Shigure watched in surprise as Zabuza dodged a fatal blow by abandoning his sword at the last moment. "How could he even react like that?" she wondered.

Chapter 81 The Ghost's Silent Killing Technique

Shigure slowly swung Zangetsu, flicking the bloodline from the blade.

He gently stroked the blade, which emitted a blue light, with his left hand.

"They actually... managed to injure the Demon King Zabuza Momochi?"

Kakashi was somewhat excited at that moment.

That's one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist! His strength is definitely at the level of an elite Jonin.

But he was injured by Shigure, a mere genin brat.

Although the opponent was somewhat careless, choosing to fight Shigure with swordsmanship instead of using ninjutsu.

But regardless, it's quite remarkable that Shigure, a genin who just graduated, performed so well on his first mission.

Sasuke gritted his teeth slightly as he watched Zabuza being repelled and even injured by Shigure.

Although he didn't know what level this "demon" Momochi Zabuza was, he was impressed by the fighting prowess he had just displayed.

If I were to take on that role, I would never be able to do what Shigure did.

'Damn it... how can this guy be so strong!'

'If I had his power, perhaps I could find that man... and take revenge.'

By dodging Shigure's fatal blow and sacrificing a cut to his arm to save his life, Momochi Zabuza was, after all, a Jonin of Kirigakure.

They're not so easy to take down.

He looked at the broken decapitation sword and felt the pain in his arm.

Zabuza understood perfectly well at that moment.

"monster!"

"Your swordsmanship is simply monstrous!"

With terrifying swordsmanship and formidable strength, Shigure possesses both skill and power, making him virtually invincible.

However, the battle was far from over. It was just an arm injury, but for Zabuza, such injuries were commonplace.

"Kid! You have great talent. If you had been born in Kirigakure, you would probably be a member of the new Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist by now!"

"But it's a pity to be in Konoha. Why don't you leave Konoha and come with me!"

At this point, Zabuza actually wanted to win over Shigure, despite his young age and astonishing swordsmanship talent.

If someone like that were in Kirigakure, he would be a shoo-in for the next Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.
