Chakra gathered in Fujin’s eyes as he noticed the chakra threads controlling the wooden horse. He traced them back and his eyes landed on Odaka. He thought, ‘A puppet master. I guess these needles are poisoned as well. I don’t have much time.’
Seeing Fujin get hit improved the morale of the Suna Jounins who were getting overwhelmed. Odaka also sighed in relief. However, Fujin’s eyes quickly scanned through the Suna Jounins and finally settled on one guy. He decided, ‘This one.’
Though the winds were still flowing strongly in the mansion, Fujin flickered and appeared next to him. The Jounin immediately moved backwards while swiping his kunai at Fujin. Fujin dropped the kunai in his hand and stopped his opponent by grabbing his wrist. At the same time, the ninjas nearby threw Shurikens at Fujin from close range.
A sigh escaped Fujin’s mouth as he thought, ‘Sucks that they didn’t come close.’
In the very next moment, he exploded!
The eyes of the Jounin whose arm was being grabbed widened in horror. He couldn’t use any jutsu to defend himself nor could he get away. His left arm was blown up. The explosion hit his body, burning his eyes and face. He was launched across the room and crashed into a wall! The shurikens that were thrown at Fujin were also launched back due to the explosion. However, everyone dodged them easily. But not a single person had a happy expression.
Outside the mansion, people were going with their lives as usual. A few people who were around the mansion noticed the sounds of explosions and clashes inside the mansion and began wondering what was happening.
Suddenly, a massive explosion occurred! A corner of the mansion was blown up. Pieces of stone and concrete were sent flying for hundreds of meters in the city and crashed into a few unlucky houses and stores.
Immediately, everyone began looking at the mansion which stood at the center of the city! These included the ninjas that were hiding in the city, the civilians and a young man sitting in a cafe.
The young man’s eyes glowed as he observed the mansion while going through the memories he received. A smirk formed on his face as he thought, ‘Not bad. Not bad at all! They set up a very good trap. The previous easy missions were indeed to lower my guard. If it was someone careless or arrogant, this trap would have been very successful. Now then…’
The young man was none other than Fujin. When Odaka approached him, Fujin had already finished observing the mansion and sent a shadow clone into the ground to attack the mansion.
Fujin’s eyes moved rapidly as he spotted 4 Anbu ninjas who were observing him from different locations. At the moment of the explosion, they stopped looking at him and watched the mansion.
Fujin took the opportunity and flickered immediately. He appeared behind an Anbu ninja and pierced a kunai through his throat. Before the Anbu could realize that someone killed him, he flickered behind the next Anbu ninja and repeated the same.
The Anbu were located quite far away from each other. So they didn’t notice their comrades falling. However, they had a job to spy on Fujin. They turned their attention back to him only to notice him not being in his spot. They immediately became alert. However, another one of them was killed by Fujin.
The final Anbu noticed someone killing a fellow Anbu member through the corner of his eye. He was shocked. He immediately grabbed his kunai. Fujin flickered once again and appeared behind the last Anbu. The Anbu quickly turned around and used his kunai to stop Fujin’s attack. The two kunai clashed creating a loud sound.
Inside the mansion, one Jounin asked, “Did he die?”
As the dust began settling, Odaka walked ahead and said with a grim expression, “I guess not. He was a Shadow Clone! No wonder the poison had no effect on him.”
The Jounins immediately went silent. Finally, one asked, “Did we get toyed with by a mere clone?”
Everyone knew the answer but everyone was silent. Suddenly, their silence was broken by the loud sound of two kunai clashing. Everyone looked out of the hole the explosion had created and noticed an Anbu ninja fighting with someone.
Fujin was surprised by the loudness of the sound. He wondered, ‘Is his kunai made of something that creates a loud noise? But what’s the use of such a loud kunai?’
The Suna Anbu sighed in relief. He thought, ‘I’m glad I kept this kunai with me for emergencies. Now everyone will know that he is here.’
However, his relief was short-lived. Fujin shot an Air bullet at his forehead at point blank! The Anbu had no time to dodge. A hole was left in his forehead as he dropped dead.
However, the loud sound had done its job. Over a hundred ninjas were staring at Fujin! The Jounins led by Odaka immediately flickered towards Fujin. Yura and his subordinates were close to Fujin as well. They quickly moved towards him as well.
Fujin watched them as his body was enveloped in wind. Odaka’s eyes widened. Dozens of poisoned needles appeared in his hands and he threw them all at Fujin. However, before they could reach him, Fujin had already disappeared.
The Jounins all landed where Fujin was standing. Immediately wind enveloped them as well as they weaved hand seals and cursed, “Do you think only you know the Wind Instantaneous Body jutsu?”
Immediately, all the Jounins used the same jutsu and began their chase. Apart from these twelve, the others in the city who could use that jutsu began the chase as well.
Fujin turned around and noticed a few dozen ninjas chasing after him. He thought, ‘The area around the city is a complete desert. There is nothing that can hide me. If this was the Land of Fire, they wouldn’t even know where to chase me. Still, it’s fine. The chase depends on the expertise in this jutsu and stamina. I’ll just keep running until they can’t keep up anymore.’
Fujin looked ahead and continued running. Apart from this, he had another choice. That was to use Shadow clones and split in different directions. It would force the Suna ninjas to split up as well. He could then hunt them one by one.
Fujin did think of this idea, but he dismissed it immediately. He thought, ‘Though I could kill a good number of them, it’s too risky. My shadow clones can’t be poisoned but I can be. I’d prefer to not get poisoned in this desert. After all, Poison is Suna’s speciality. Though it wasn’t a match for Tsunade, I’m no Tsunade. Avoiding getting poisoned is the only method for me.’
Over the last couple of years, Fujin’s knowledge about medical jutsus, the human body and poisons had increased a lot. But he wasn’t arrogant enough to think that it would be anywhere close to competing against Suna.
The Suna ninjas chasing Fujin had already split into groups. At the forefront was Manabu. Behind him were Yura, Odaka and Eagle. The Jounins were behind them in smaller groups of their own. Though they could use the jutsu, the amount of time needed and the distance they could cover was different for everyone.
Every Suna ninja had a grim face as they noticed Fujin getting further and further away at every second. One of the Jounins cursed, “What the hell? How does he flicker by more than a kilometer every time? And why does his jutsu activate instantly?”
The one next to him muttered, “It’s almost as if the Wind Gods have all blessed him!”
They weren’t the only ones with that thought. Manabu was upset as well. He was one of the strongest Wind users in Sunagakure. He was quite prideful about his expertise in wind manipulation. He thought, ‘If not for the Magnet Kekkei Genkai, even Rasa wouldn’t be a match for my Wind Release. Who is this ninja?’
Fujin used the jutsu 10 times consecutively. He was about to use it again when he suddenly stopped and disrupted his chakra.
Immediately, the scene in front of him changed. A dozen ninjas appeared in front of him. He was alarmed by the situation and wondered, ‘Why the hell would they set up an ambush all the way out here?’
Manabu, Odaka and the rest noticed it and sighed in relief. The reinforcements sent by Rasa had arrived when Fujin was wasting time in Shunkuto City.
Manabu thought, ‘He finally encountered one of the squads. I was afraid he was going to run straight through the net we set up. After all, how could anyone catch anyone who moves a kilometer with every step? However, it looks like he has used up all his luck. Of all the squads to encounter, he encountered that monster!’
