Konoha: You're letting me build up my bonds, but you're offending the entire ninja world.

Therefore, he has always opposed spending money on this matter. Given the geographical location of the Land of Snow, they were not even involved in the Ninja World War. Having this armor is not important to the Land of Snow; not having this armor is what is very important.

He knew the information had been leaked when Xuan Yue brought it up, so he agreed to hand it over without hesitation because he knew he couldn't protect it.

"Miss Maoyue, Lord Xuanyue... he should be alright, right?"

Looking at the ninjutsu storm that was already devastating to him, Kazahana Hayate began to worry again.

"Don't worry, 790."

Uzuki Yugao shook her head. "The counterattack has already begun."

As soon as he finished speaking, flames shot into the sky.

Shimura Gengetsu turned completely crimson, as if he were covered in a layer of flowing lava.

"Molten Release: Scorching River Rock Technique!"

Suddenly, large amounts of lava surged from the ground, leaving some snow ninjas with nowhere to stand, and they were quickly burned alive.

Several whales that fell from the sky landed inside the lava, evaporating large amounts of water vapor.

"Two bloodline limits?" Wolf Fang Avalanche's expression changed. Two bloodlines, both of which were high-temperature types, which were very effective against his ice release.

"Drink! Let's see how you dodge this!"

With a roar of fury, the wind and waves suddenly raised their hands, and the tornado transformed into a black dragon, rushing towards Shimura Gengetsu in the air, completely avoiding the attack of the magma.

"Why hide?"

Shimura Gengetsu's hands flew, and the surrounding broken houses flew into the air, turning into beautiful emerald green crystals that combined to form two long green dragons.

"Crystal Escape: Crystal Breaking and Dragon Subduing Technique!"

Another bloodline limit?

Feng Hua Nu Tao felt like he was going crazy. Why did such a monster exist in the world? Or were all five great ninja villages filled with such monsters?

Shimura Gengetsu said that if that wasn't enough, he still had Storm Shield, Ice Release, and Lava Release that he hadn't used yet.

With his upgraded chakra control talent, combined with the Third Hokage's revealed talent as a ninja expert, his speed in developing bloodline limits can only be described as unbelievable. He has researched and developed many matching ninjutsu for several bloodline limits, greatly enriching his attack methods.

In the sky, the black dragon encountered the incredibly hard crystal dragon. After a brief battle, both black dragons disintegrated, turning into wind and snow that vanished into the sky.

The crystal dragon continued its momentum, descending from the sky and burying the raging waves and the wolf-tooth avalanche. The two channeled all their chakra into creating a shield to defend themselves.

However, Shimura Gengetsu's next attack came.

"Molten Meteor Volcano!"

Lava flew up from the ground, like meteorites rushing towards all the snow ninjas at extremely high speed.

At this point, the Snow Ninja had completely collapsed. The enemy's ninjutsu was firing like a machine gun, and they desperately created ice and snow walls to defend themselves. Those who didn't know ninjutsu simply ran away.

Even with a numerical advantage, the quality of their chakra, their nature transformation abilities, and the level of their ninjutsu were all far inferior, and they couldn't hold out for long before casualties began to occur.

The raging winds and waves pushed the chakra armor to its limits, and the crystal dragon's size continued to shrink.

Then, a fiery meteor crashed into us.

Click!

Click!

Several more fireballs streaked across the sky.

The chakra shield cracked and then shattered like glass, causing the core of the armor to disintegrate.

Without the armor's help, Feng Hua Nu Tao's momentum instantly weakened, and he could no longer suppress the crystal dragon. His arms made a cracking sound as the crystal dragon pressed him firmly to the ground.

"Crystal Escape? Crystal Pentagonal Prison"

The crystal formed by the crystal dragon sealed the raging storm inside, but Wolf Fang Avalanche was not so lucky. More than ten fireballs hit him in succession, burning him alive along with his armor.

"It's almost time to wrap this up."

After dealing with the two culprits, Shimura Gengetsu looked at the fleeing group of Yuki ninja and threw out a specially made kunai.

A few minutes later, all seventy-six snow ninjas who had stormed into Kazeka Castle, including two special Jonin-level snow ninjas, Tsurugi Fubuki and Fuyukuma Hyōbō, were killed.

The price... was that a large part of Windflower City was destroyed.

While the enemy's ninjutsu played a part, it seems that Shimura Gengetsu was more to blame.

His wide-range ninjutsu is not suitable for use in cities.

Fortunately, after the chaos caused by the snow ninja, almost all the civilians who remained nearby escaped, and no one was accidentally injured.

"Let's go out." Seeing that the war had subsided, Uzuki Yugao said to Fuuka Hayate.

Having been stunned, Kazama Shoyuki suddenly snapped out of her daze and nodded repeatedly, "That's right, let's go over there quickly."

The group, accompanied by guards, arrived at the battlefield.

Looking at the crater several meters deep that had been smashed into, they became even more aware of the power of those ninjutsu techniques.

"Lord Xuan Yue, thank you for saving the Snow Country." Kazaka Saya bowed deeply in gratitude.

"Thank you, Lord Xuan Yue." Feng Hua Xiao Xue imitated him perfectly.

Asama Santayu, along with other ministers and guards, bowed in gratitude.

Without Xuan Yue's intervention, they would have been no match for these Snow Ninjas. As the most loyal men under the Daimyo, it goes without saying how Feng Hua Nu Tao would treat them.

It's fair to say that Shimura Gengetsu was their savior.

"I'm just doing this for the money, no need to be polite." Shimura Gengetsu remained unmoved by the gratitude of so many people.

Although these people all obtained bond rewards, there were almost no ninjas among them, and they didn't even give out bond points.

He pointed to the crystal over there and said to Fuuka Satsuki, "Your brother is inside. What are you going to do with him?"

Since he had accepted the mission, the culprit, Shimura Gengetsu, spared his life and left the decision to Kazaka Hayate.

"this..."

Feng Hua Zao Xue hesitated for a few seconds, then looked at the still-burning flames around her.

"Lord Xuan Yue, how long can your ninjutsu last?"

"Could we seal him inside first? Rescuing the disaster victims is the priority right now."

"Okay, then let's do it tomorrow."

Shimura Gengetsu kicked it, sending the sealing crystal flying high into the air and rolling towards the royal palace.

After that, there was nothing more for them to do. Kazahana Sayayuki arranged for the ministers and guards to clean up the scene and treat the injured. For safety reasons, she also asked Shimura Gengetsu to take Kazahana Sayayuki back with her, and they would stay with her that night.

After a busy night, Feng Huazaoxue finally dragged her tired body back to the palace the next morning and sent someone to invite Xuan Yue and the others over.

The wind, flowers, and raging waves were also released from the crystal and tightly bound with iron chains.

“Raging waves, why did it have to come to this…” Fuka Shoyuki looked at her younger brother with a complicated expression.

"Humph."

Feng Hua Nu Tao turned his head away, refusing to look at him. "I lost this time. I didn't expect you to be so despicable as to bring in a strong person from Konoha to deal with me."

"But I tell you, only I can make the Snow Country great again, amidst the wind, flowers, and snow!"

Kazaka Hayase looked bewildered. "When was the Land of Snow ever great?"

"You!" Feng Hua Nu Tao was furious and snorted coldly, "Kill me or torture me, do as you please, if I utter a sound, I'm not Feng Hua Nu Tao!"

"Ugh..."

Feng Hua Zao Xue sighed, stepped down from her throne, and came before him.

"You are, after all, my brother... How could I bear to watch you die?"

A hint of joy flashed in Feng Hua Nu Tao's eyes, but he quickly concealed it.

Sure enough, his older brother was too indecisive, unable to bring himself to kill him even for the heinous crime of treason.

That's better.

He didn't believe that Shimura Gengetsu could stay in the Land of Snow forever. He would wait until Gengetsu left, then find another opportunity to escape from prison, and the throne would still be his.

Just as Feng Hua Nu Tao was envisioning the future, Feng Hua Zao Xue arrived in front of Feng Hua Xiao Xue, taking her daughter's hand and leading her out of the main hall.

"I can't bear to see you die, so I'll go first."

"Your Excellency Xuan Yue, please be swift and merciful, so that he suffers no pain."

"No, brother!"

Feng Hua Nu Tao was dumbfounded. You couldn't bear to watch, so you left. Is that how you behave?

Shimura Gengetsu and Uzuki Yugao's lips twitched incessantly.

They had just thought that Feng Hua Zao Xue was raising a tiger to cause trouble, but it turns out that she was just playing a trick on Feng Hua Nu Tao before she died.

They were even fooled.

Shimura Gengetsu said nothing more. With a flash of his blade, Fuuka Nutō's head shot into the sky.

Quan, who was standing nearby, instinctively closed his eyes.

Although reluctant, Gengetsu Shimura gently coaxed, "Izumi, we are ninjas. There are some things we have to face sooner or later. Be strong, open your eyes. You'll get used to it after experiencing more."
