Chapter 230 A Dying Struggle!
Mei Terumi was unaware that Izumi Uchiha was still lamenting that she wasn't strong enough. Seeing that the other party seemed to have tacitly agreed with her statement, Mei Terumi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although many more people are destined to die at the hands of Uchiha Izumi, she is already satisfied with the relatively lenient outcome she has achieved.
"Lin Qin Kukulin, eleven years ago, in order to steal gold, he murdered the person who commissioned the mission, Ishida Susumu, and afterwards lied that—" Temporarily acquiescing to Terumi Mei's actions, Uchiha Ikezumi turned his gaze to another Kirigakure Jonin, whose head was also marked with a reddish-black square.
"Wait! We did make a lot of mistakes in the past, but we've all repented now! Doesn't this so-called justice even give us a chance to turn back?!" Seeing Uchiha Izumi staring at him like the Grim Reaper, Kukurin, terrified, quickly stepped forward, forcing himself to speak. "The Village of the Blood Mist is a dog-eat-dog world; we were forced into it! Is it wrong not to want to die?!"
In order to save his life, Kukulin, who had previously been a staunch advocate of the "blood mist" policy, brazenly switched sides, pretending to be a victim himself.
Many conservative ninjas were about to unleash a torrent of curses, but then, prompted by their companions, they realized what was happening and began to loudly echo Kukulin's accusations.
Some quick-thinking individuals even offered several examples, such as killing a comrade in order to graduate from the ninja academy, or being forced to kill in self-defense, which was also a last resort.
The reason for secretly reporting teammates and neighbors was to avoid being implicated. In short, all the blame lies with the Blood Mist policy. They were forced to stain their hands with blood simply to protect themselves.
Although Mei Terumi had vouched for Izumi Uchiha's Sharingan ability in the name of the Master, with so many Kirigakure ninja present, she couldn't just leave them with no chance of survival, could she?
"Tch tch tch, bro, that's a bit boring. You used to be always praising how great the Blood Mist policy was." Standing in the crowd, Ringo Yuri suddenly laughed, clearly disdainful of her brother's flip-flopping behavior.
"Shut up!" Kukulin felt the veins on his forehead throbbing, regretting that he hadn't strangled this so-called sister to death back then.
Despite being the eldest son of his father, he did not inherit the Lightning Release technique passed down through generations of the Ringo family. Instead, the bastard born to that lowly woman became a famous Lightning Release genius.
Upon realizing this, Kukulin's expression changed drastically. He suddenly thought of Uchiha Izumi's abilities, which meant that his past actions had already been seen by the other party.
"—Five years ago, he poisoned and murdered his own father and raped and killed his stepmother—" Uchiha Izumi completely ignored Kukuri's clownish behavior and continued to recite his crimes in a serious and methodical manner.
"Kukuri!" Yuri, who had just been mocking her scumbag brother, was struck dumb. The tragedy of years past flashed through her mind in an instant, and she let out a mournful cry like a wounded beast, "I'll kill you!"
Enraged, Yuri burst into lightning as she charged toward Kukurin like a bolt of lightning, completely abandoning any attempt to dodge or defend herself. She recklessly slashed at her matricide enemy with her short sword.
The title of Lightning Release genius is well-deserved; however, the Chunin Yuri was able to unleash a desperate attack that could threaten a Jonin.
Unfortunately, the gap in strength was not so easily bridged. Kukuri, who was nearly twenty years older than Yuuri, was a genuine Jonin from Kirigakure. No matter how amazing a strike that could threaten a Jonin was, it was still somewhat lacking when facing a true Jonin.
"Then you can die with that bitch!" Kukulin was desperate; he was going to die anyway, so he might as well drag that bitch's bastard down to hell with him!
The two drew their swords almost simultaneously. As Yuri's short sword slashed towards Kukurin, Kukurin's blade had already struck Yuri's braid first.
Before he could finish reciting the crimes, Uchiha Izumi looked at Kukuri with a hint of helplessness. It was obviously not just enough to let such a scumbag die so easily, but he had no reason to stop the victim's relatives from taking revenge. He could only silently cast a Judgment Eye on Kukuri, so that he could feel how sinful his evil was before he died.
"Pfft!"
The head rolled to the ground, and Yuri, whose braid on one side had been cut off, turned back like lightning, gripped her short sword and stabbed Kukurin's body dozens of times in one go. Then she stomped her enemy's head hard into the mud and trampled it relentlessly.
"Go to hell, go to hell, go to hell, go to hell, go to hell!!!" The furious Yu Yuri stomped Kukulin's head completely into the mud. Fortunately, it had rained earlier, which softened the soil. Otherwise, Kukulin's head would probably have been crushed into a pulp by Yu Yuri.
Uchiha Ikezumi made no attempt to stop her, and simply watched silently as Ameyuri completed her revenge.
Of course, this is mainly because Yuri doesn't even have a square on her head, which means she is a true innocent person. Not to mention that she is already a Chunin, even among the Genin of Kirigakure, there are not many people who can achieve a square without a frame. Most people have a white name more or less.
"Especially those who are older, almost everyone has a history of killing a fellow comrade." This is because in the past, in order to graduate from the Ninja Academy, one had to kill a classmate with one's own hands.
The cruelty of the Village of Blood Mist is evident from this. Although the rule was later abolished, it was not out of a change of heart, but because the rule gave birth to an unprecedented and unparalleled killer, Zabuza Momochi, who killed all his comrades from the same period.
Fearing that others might follow suit, the Kirigakure leadership cancelled the rule. After all, they wanted to select a generation of Kirigakure ninja who were ruthless enough, not a murderer who only appeared once a year.
"Bang!"
Just as Uchiha Ikezumi was about to continue the execution, Yuri, who had finally vented her anger, knelt down in front of him and kowtowed loudly before Uchiha Ikezumi could speak.
"Thank you so much!!!" Yuri wanted to burst into tears, but she bit her lip hard to stop herself from crying. She had avenged her parents, and now it was time to repay the debt of gratitude. "Please allow me to follow in your footsteps! I! Ringo Yuri! Will become your sharpest blade!"
"There's no need for that. I didn't execute Kukuri to avenge you. I did it simply to uphold justice." Uchiha Izumi glanced at the girl lying in front of him, and with a sigh, politely declined Yuri's request.
It is indeed amazing that she could unleash such a stunning attack at the age of ten, but Yuri Amane is different from Izumi Uchiha.
