The moment the Heaven's Calamity Sword pierced through the strange person in front of him, Nangong Zhe immediately pulled his sword out of the person's chest. He even exerted force with his feet and jumped back to distance himself from this strange person. Why? That was because Nangong Zhe's sword, which had clearly hit its target, did not feel real at all when it pierced into the man's body.
But Nangong Zhe could clearly perceive that the man in front of him wasn't an illusion, but a real existence. Regardless of whether this ability was a Kekkei Genkai or a unique ninjutsu, the most important thing to do now was to open up the distance between them.
"You … Who are you?"
Nangong Zhe looked at the strange man and asked the same question. However, compared to his disdainful tone at the beginning, Nangong Zhe's tone had become more serious.
"Tsk …" It was obvious that the masked man was very displeased with Nangong Zhe's attitude, "I thought that the Yama-King of Konoha would be a little more interesting, but I didn't expect him to be so boring. Do you want to know who I am? It doesn't matter if I tell you, this uncle is called Hoodlum! Akatsuki's first official member candidate … "
Hearing Hoodlum's words, Nangong Zhe actually didn't believe him. After all, through Itachi's information, Nangong Zhe already knew what kind of people the Akatsuki's official members were. Except for Konan and Pain who hadn't shown their full strength, the other official members were indeed talented in various aspects. To a certain extent, they could also be comparable to kage level experts. Even if they had the advantage, they still had the opportunity to defeat kage level experts.
And this Hoodlum in front of him clearly had the ability to let attacks pass through his body without causing any harm. Although he couldn't see for the time being whether this ability could let all physical and energy pass through his body, and what was the limit of this ability. But in Nangong Zhe's opinion, a person with this kind of ability was fully qualified to become an official member of the Akatsuki, and not like what Hoodlum said, he was only a first official member candidate.
But even in the face of such a strange ability, Nangong Zhe didn't intend to shrink back. In the past few days, Nangong Zhe also found that his behavior was becoming more and more unlike what he should be doing. Perhaps it was because of the expulsion of Danzo from Konoha, or perhaps it was because he let his three family-like existences leave the Bloodcloak Pavilion and the Lion Clan's space that he felt was very safe. Therefore, Nangong Zhe hoped that he could save his own life and the lives of his family.
Due to various reasons, Nangong Zhe also clearly sensed that he was beginning to weaken. The Iron-Blooded Yama who made people tremble in fear on the battlefield back then seemed to have quietly changed at this moment. His heart that was as hard as iron had actually begun to slowly melt.
Nangong Zhe tightly held the Heaven's Calamity Sword in his hand. This time, he wanted to try and change it.
Seemingly aware of the change in Nangong Zhe's mentality, Hoodlum, who looked very sloppy just a moment ago, also slowly straightened his slightly bowed body. One of his hands also slowly pulled out a kunai from his back, one hand holding the kunai, while the other hand pressed on the kunai in his hand. Obviously, he was ready to fight.
"To be honest … Although you have always been called the Yama of Wood Leaf, I still know the relationship between you and Wood Leaf. So if possible, I really have no reason to fight with you … "As he spoke, Hoodlum glanced at Nangong Zhe's clearly very determined eyes and laughed self-deprecatingly," However, I think that you have already made up your mind to fight with me … "
"There's no point in talking anymore! Let's fight first … "
As he spoke, Nangong Zhe directly drew his sword and ran towards Hoodlum. Nangong Zhe held the Disaster Sword with both hands and placed it next to his left ear. The inner strength in his body circulated at high speed, mixing with killing intent and hostility as it wrapped around the Disaster Sword. There were even strands of undetectable sword qi that wrapped around the Disaster Sword.
Gusts of wind quietly wrapped around Nangong Zhe's body as he ran. Slowly, the wind became stronger and stronger. Regardless of whether it was the surrounding tent's curtains or the dust on the ground, they were all blown away by the wind.
At this moment, Nangong Zhe was like a ferocious tiger descending from the mountain, or a dragon dancing in the sky. His aura was extremely powerful and domineering. Hoodlum, who was standing opposite of Nangong Zhe, naturally felt it the most. However, he still looked fearless as he quietly watched Nangong Zhe charge towards him. It seemed that no matter how Nangong Zhe prepared to attack him, he wouldn't lose!
However, Nangong Zhe wasn't affected by Hoodlum's attitude at all. Instead, he fell into an extremely mysterious state. Back when Nangong Zhe entered the Wood Leaf Academy, he relied on a state called 'Heart Sacrifice Technique' to defeat Hatake Kakashi in swordsmanship. He even received Hatake Mao Shuo's favor. However, over the years, it had become increasingly difficult for Nangong Zhe to enter such a state. Today, Nangong Zhe was completely immersed in his sword for the first time in a long time.
Ignoring Hoodlum's expression and his surroundings, Nangong Zhe suddenly had a strong desire in his heart. Swing the sword! Swing the sword non-stop! It wasn't to defeat his enemy, nor was it to familiarize himself with swordsmanship. It was purely to swing the sword.
That strong desire was like a thirsty person craving for spring water, or a hungry person craving for food. It was a primitive desire that came from his own blood and body.
Finally, Nangong Zhe's body was in front of Hoodlum. His own Calamity Sword could also attack Hoodlum. The desire to swing the sword from the depths of his heart could no longer be suppressed. Hoodlum, who was facing Nangong Zhe, seemed to want to say something, but Nangong Zhe directly slashed his own face.
Nangong Zhe wasn't clear about Hoodlum's ability, but Hoodlum was clear about it. The so-called immunity to attacks was actually a transfer of a part of one's body to another space, allowing one's body to avoid being attacked. However, since a part of one's body had been transferred, it naturally wouldn't be able to display its original effect.
Therefore, Hoodlum, who was about to speak, could only passively (actively?) His words were interrupted.
