Hearing his voice, Nohara Rin was slightly startled and turned her head to look at him.

In that very instant.

The cloaked man and the orange-haired girl exchanged a glance, then suddenly flung open their cloaks, revealing a dense array of kunai and shuriken that gleamed in the sunlight. He then hurled them all at them, aiming towards where Nohara Rin was!

"!!"

Nohara Rin reacted quickly as well. The moment she saw that Mikami Yu and Kakashi's eyes were not right, she jumped towards them. At the same time, she grabbed kunai from her ninja tool bag and made a waving and blocking motion in front of her chest, deflecting several kunai.

Ding Ding Ding-!

One by one, kunai and shuriken were knocked down, and the explosive tags attached to them were clearly visible, indicating that it was time to explode!

At a critical moment.

Mikami Yu's figure blurred for a moment, then transformed into Nohara Rin's appearance.

To be more precise...

Mikami Yu's figure disappeared from his original spot and appeared where Nohara Rin was. Then, Nohara Rin's figure appeared in his spot at almost the same time. Because the two scenes switched so quickly that the naked eye could not distinguish them, it looked as if the figures had become blurry.

——【Substitution Jutsu: Imitation World Instant Cast】!

next second.

A deafening explosion, accompanied by a scorching shockwave, erupted! Dazzling flames shot into the sky, completely engulfing the spot where Mikami Yu had just been standing!

"Yu——!"

Kakashi roared, his usually calm eyes flashing with shock and anger. He tightened his grip on the White Fang short sword and charged towards the exploding inferno.

Nohara Rin, having never seen Mikami Yu's "Heavenly Hand Power"... cough cough, I misspoke, it's the "Pseudo-World Instantaneous Strike" that allows him to directly swap places with someone. After a second of stunned silence, she vaguely realized what had happened, then looked up at the figure engulfed in flames, her pupils dilating in shock: "Yu..."

Compared to the two of them,

The other side reacted much faster.

"Let's do it!"

With a cold shout, the orange-haired girl and the black-haired girl, like two arrows released from a bow, pounced on Kakashi and Nohara Rin, who were both in shock! Their attacks were fierce and ruthless, aimed directly at vital points.

Kakashi could only suppress his worry for Mikami Yu, and his White Fang short sword flashed with a cold light as it met the orange-haired girl.

"clang!"

The sound of metal clashing was deafening, and an unexpected force emanated from the blade, causing Kakashi's arm to go numb slightly: "Huh?!"

Such incredible power!

On the other side, Nohara Rin also hastily raised her kunai to block the hedgehog-headed man's attack. The immense force caused her to stagger back several steps, her arm feeling sore and numb.

As a female ninja, taijutsu was already Nohara Rin's weakness. Now, facing a Sand Village ninja who was both older and more experienced than her, she immediately fell into a passive position and could only barely parry and defend. Before long, she was in grave danger.

"Haha, die! Die!"

A sinister smile appeared on the hedgehog-haired face, and the attack descended upon Nohara Rin like a storm.

Seeing this, Kakashi wanted to go and help, but the orange-haired girl's attacks became even more ferocious, and her speed was astonishing. Even when Kakashi used his full strength, he was somewhat suppressed by her, let alone being able to break free to help Nohara Rin. This made him extremely anxious!

"This woman..."

Who is it?!

At this age... they're not even that many years older than him, they can't possibly be Jonin, right? Among his peers, besides Yu, is there anyone else who can put so much pressure on him in terms of swordsmanship?

Thinking of Yu, Kakashi unconsciously turned his gaze to the dissipating flames and smoke. Rin, too, clenched her teeth, tears welling in her eyes as she looked in the same direction.

By this time, the smoke and dust had slowly dissipated.

The ground, ravaged by the explosive tags, was scorched black and littered with rubble.

however……

The scorched pit was completely empty!

The bald man was taken aback.

The cloaked man seemed to possess some sensory abilities, having already sensed that something was amiss. He was clutching a kunai in one hand, looking around frantically, trying to find Mikami Yu as soon as possible, but at the last moment, he felt a whoosh of wind from above—

"Sizzle—!"

A dazzling blade of light, like lightning tearing through the shadows, appeared in the sky without warning!

Behind the flash of the blade, the figure of a white-haired boy descended from the sky!

Chapter 109 Breaking the Instant Prison Imprisonment, Blazing Release: Pakura! (Two Chapters Combined)

The cloaked man's hair stood on end. Under the intense sense of life and death crisis, he didn't have time to think about how Mikami Yu had appeared in this position, and used the Body Flicker Technique without hesitation!

His reaction was quick enough, and his response was flawless, but...

Still half a step too slow!

"Shh-!"

With a sharp whooshing sound, Mikami Yu descended from the sky, his blade tracing a sharp arc. Blood gushed from both sides of the blade like a fountain, while an arm, still wrapped in a tattered cloak, spun into the air!

"Ugh—!"

Seven or eight meters away, the cloaked man fell heavily to the ground, blood gushing from his severed arm. The intense pain contorted his face, veins bulging on his forehead, and the obstruction originating from the "Sealing Seal" spread through his meridians, making it impossible for him to even stop the bleeding!

"Koji! You damned Konoha ninja, I'll kill you!"

Seeing his companion injured, the bald man's eyes widened in fury. He roared and brandished his kunai, charging towards Mikami Yu, who had just revealed himself, like a raging bull.

at this time.

Mikami Yu's figure had become clearer from the blurry state during his rapid dive. His outer clothing had several holes burned in it, with charred edges, and there were also several burn marks of varying sizes on his exposed skin, but they were all just superficial injuries.

After glancing at Kakashi and Rin Nohara not far away, Yu Mikami twirled his short sword and blocked the bald man rushing towards him.

Not far away.

Despite the excruciating pain, the cloaked man with the severed arm managed to stand up with one hand, even without stopping the bleeding. As blood gushed out, he quickly pulled out kunai and shuriken, throwing them from a distance at Mikami Yu's vitals in the back, attempting to disrupt his movements and create an opportunity for the bald man.

Although his chakra flow was temporarily obstructed due to the "Sealing Seal," his sheer strength was still enough to throw the ninja tools with a whooshing sound.

Faced with the two sides attacking from both sides, Mikami Yu remained calm and unhurried. He took two steps back as if strolling in a garden, and with a short sword in his hand, he swung it into a dazzling silver light, accurately deflecting or repelling all the kunai and shuriken that came at him. At the same time, he also glanced at the situation on Kakashi and Nohara Rin's side.

Kakashi is doing well.

Although his strength seemed slightly weaker than the orange-haired girl opposite him, he was not about to be defeated quickly and could barely hold his own for a while.

But Nohara Rin is in a bit of danger. Under the opponent's close-range attacks, she has no chance to use ninjutsu and can only fight back with her weak taijutsu.

"...Three against four, this is indeed a bit troublesome. Let's kill two of them first."

Mikami Yu exhaled: "Instant Prison Shadow Killing Formation—Activate!"

[Clone Technique: Hehe, is it finally our turn to make our appearance?]

[Transformation Technique: Am I too late?]

next moment.

The bald man, who was desperately attacking Mikami Yu, suddenly felt a blur before his eyes, and the white-haired boy in front of him became indistinct! The next moment, one, two, three... several figures of Mikami Yu appeared at the same time, and sharp sword energy tore through the air, enveloping him in the blink of an eye!

In just one second, blood gushed from several vital points on the bald man's body, including his throat, heart, and wrists! His movements came to an abrupt halt, his eyes filled with disbelief and horror, a muffled gurgling sound emanating from his throat, before he collapsed to the ground, blood rapidly spreading beneath him.

Four slashes in one second!

For an enemy whose strength is inferior to that of Mikami Yu, this move is almost impossible to dodge; the moment they see it, they will be instantly killed!

after that,

Without even glancing at the cloaked man with the severed arm, Mikami Yu stomped his heel on the ground and, as he leaped into the air, flashed in front of Nohara Rin, slashing out with his sword. The black-haired hedgehog's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly mustered his strength to block the blow, but the next second he was slashed from the side, blood spurting out, followed by a kick that sent him flying.

After helping Nohara Rin out of trouble, Mikami Yu appeared almost without hesitation behind the orange-haired girl fighting Kakashi, and swung his sword in a sweeping motion!

Speaking of which, the "Instant Shadow Assassination Formation" that Mikami Yu is currently using is already the most basic version. It doesn't use a large number of water clones to stack buffs; it simply releases a few phantoms to assist in movement. Moreover, the distance moved by each "Substitution Jutsu" is controlled within 40 meters.

He initially told Kakashi that the maximum range of the "Substitution Jutsu" was 40 meters.

Given that the distance is already sufficient, there's no need to leak unnecessary information and expose your trump card prematurely.

The situation was indeed as Mikami Yu had predicted.

The black-haired guy was easily dealt with. Although he wasn't instantly killed, he was already injured and his chakra circulation was disrupted, so he could no longer pose a real threat to Nohara Rin.

Taking advantage of the moment, Nohara Rin formed hand seals and unleashed "Water Release: Water Rumble," sending him flying before he could even get up. Because of the sealing technique at the wound site, the bleeding couldn't be stopped immediately, and the water from the Water Rumble quickly became stained with a patch of bright red blood.

The orange-haired girl's performance was somewhat unexpected.

Although the attack happened suddenly, she managed to barely block several sharp blades that came from behind her with her amazing reaction and speed, while also blocking Kakashi's attack. Although the short burst of power brought a lot of burden, at least she was not instantly killed like the others!

Seeing that Mikami Yu's figure was like a ghost, and his attacks were unpredictable,

Knowing she couldn't continue passively, the orange-haired girl suddenly unleashed her "Wind Slash Technique," knocking Kakashi away. Then, using Body Flicker Technique, she rushed to the side of the heavily injured, fallen cloaked man, grabbed his collar, and forcefully threw him towards the spiky-haired man.

"You guys go first!! I'll hold him off!!"

As he spoke,

The orange-haired girl turned around, holding a kunai, and instead of retreating, she advanced, taking the initiative to face the center where the flashing sword light was the most concentrated, to block Mikami Yu head-on and buy time for her teammates to retreat!

At this moment, Mikami Yuya paused from his high-speed movement and stood not far in front of the orange-haired girl, raising an eyebrow slightly as he looked at the resolute fighting spirit burning in her eyes.

The current battle is three against three. The cloaked man has lost an arm and can only be considered half a person. The remaining black-haired hedgehog is not a threat. On the contrary, the orange-haired girl who looks like the opposing captain is quite strong. She just withstood the double attack from Mikami Yu and Kakashi.

That being the case...

"Kakashi, Rin! You two are in charge!"

Mikami Yu shouted loudly, pointing the tip of his short sword diagonally at the ground, assuming the starting stance of the Hatake sword technique, "I'll try this one."

"……clear!"

Kakashi felt a little strange—logically speaking, he was the team leader, responsible for commanding the battle when Minato Namikaze was not around, but now it seemed like he had become Yu Mikami's subordinate.

However, considering the tense situation at the moment, there was no time to say too much, and the team's crisis had indeed been resolved by Mikami Yu, so he didn't say anything, just called out to Nohara Rin, and chased after the injured black-haired hedgehog and cloaked man.

The latter two staggered as they ran and fought.

Here

The orange-haired girl took a deep breath and calmed herself down.

As the captain, she had done all she could; now it was up to her teammates. If they couldn't even handle Kakashi and Rin's attacks and were killed or captured, there was nothing she could do.

after all……

Judging from the current situation, this little white-haired guy is the most troublesome. His strange and unpredictable ability, whether it's "body blink" or some other kind of technique, reminded her of the "Golden Flash" mentioned in her intelligence, only a youthful version.

"call……"

The orange-haired girl took a deep breath, pulled out a second kunai from her ninja tool pouch, gripped one in each hand, and assumed a unique defensive stance opposite Mikami Yu. Her center of gravity was steady, and her eyes were as sharp as a hawk's: "Come on, let me see the genius of Konoha!"

Then--

"clang!"

The two figures leaped out instantly and collided!

The blades clashed fiercely with the sharpness of the kunai, sparks flying everywhere!

At this moment, Mikami Yu used the "Hatake Sword Technique" with speed and ruthlessness, each strike aimed directly at the orange-haired girl's joints and vital points.

However, the orange-haired girl displayed an astonishing resilience and fighting instinct that did not match her appearance. With extremely agile movements and instinctive physical reactions, she moved around in a small area, blocking, parrying, or deflecting attacks, narrowly avoiding potentially fatal blows time and time again!

"That's interesting..."

Mikami Yu's eyes flickered slightly.

He now understood why Kakashi had been suppressed by this orange-haired girl earlier. She was indeed very strong, and her battle instincts were terrifying. Such strength was definitely not at the level of an ordinary Chunin; she was more like a Jonin.

In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged more than a dozen blows, with blinding flashes of fire constantly appearing.

suddenly.

Yu Mikami felt a subtle sense of crisis rising in his heart.

A quick glance revealed a fierce glint in the orange-haired girl's amber eyes. Although she still held kunai in her hands, a massive and intense chakra surge was gathering around her without warning!

This is... a ninjutsu without a seal?

Moreover, the texture of this chakra seems to be...
