Miki looked at the Shinobi's green hair and asked, "What are the characteristics of the Fūma Clan, and who are its strong members?"
Characteristics?
"We, the Fūma Clan, are known as a clan of Shinobi Tools, and we also have a deep understanding of Chakra."
"In Tokiwa, there are only about 120 members of the Fūma Clan, mostly Chunin and Genin. The person in charge is Nikuruma Zhu Zhu, one of the Twelve Fūma, skilled in Taijutsu and the use of Shinobi Tools."
"Everyone says he is terrifyingly strong, but no one has ever seen him fight," Shin'en said.
"Oh?" Miki asked, "Who is your leader, and where is your Shinobi Village?"
"Our leader is named Fuma Kotaro, a legendary Shinobi with strength comparable to a Kage of a Great Nations."
Shin'en did not dare to hide anything, spilling it all out like beans from a bamboo tube.
"I don't know where the Shinobi Village is!"
"We, the Fūma Clan, don't have a Shinobi Village at all."
"We make a living by accepting commissions and employment from various countries. Guarding Tokiwa is just such a mission!"
"Is that so," Miki said, "It seems you don't know much."
I'm just an ordinary Chunin, of course I don't know much!
Shin'en nervously swallowed.
"Anything else? This level of information is practically knowing nothing," Miki said.
"I really don't know anything else!" Shin'en immediately said.
"What are the Twelve Fūma?" Miki asked.
"They are the twelve strongest Jonin of our Fūma Clan!"
"Rumor has it that even Jonin from the Great Nations are no match for them!"
Only twelve, huh?
Miki rested her hand on her cheek and said, "How many of the Twelve Fūma are here?"
"I don't know! Only the person in charge knows!"
"You're really useless," Miki said indifferently.
Upon hearing this, Shin'en's pupils constricted.
It's coming!
Silencing!
The wire tightened, and beads of blood seeped from his skin.
Shin'en looked at Naori in terror, his breathing heavy, but he didn't scream out in shame.
"Don't make it bloody," Miki said.
Naori looked at Miki.
Miki extended her hand, signaling Shin'en to look at her palm.
A green beetle vibrated its wings rapidly in her palm.
"This little cutie is called the Winter Storm Chariot."
"It's my unique insect."
"Its ability is to control airflow."
"It controls the intake or expulsion of air through its spiracles."
"Open your mouth."
The introduction abruptly stopped here, and Miki issued her command.
Shin'en hesitated for a moment, then opened his mouth.
The Winter Storm Chariot flew from her palm, burrowed into Shin'en's mouth, crawled along his throat and esophagus, and entered his abdomen.
Goosebumps rose all over his body, and waves of nausea overwhelmed his mind and body. Shin'en's body trembled.
"Mission one."
"Find the Fūma Clan's base."
"Mission two."
"Ascertain the exact location of leader Fuma Kotaro."
"Understand?"
"Yes!" Shin'en responded with a jolt of alertness.
"By the way, you can try to find a doctor, to see if he can save you," Miki said, "However, you only get one chance, so make the most of it."
"I wouldn't dare, my Lady!" Shin'en reflexively jumped up, then immediately knelt on one knee and bowed his head.
Miki didn't tell Shin'en what the consequences of the insect activating would be; she let him imagine that part.
Anyway, he would conjure up the most terrifying consequences in his mind.
Although the actual consequences were also terrifying.
So terrifying that simply injecting gas into the anus could easily kill a person.
With this technique, when expelling air, it acts as an expanding air bomb.
When inhaling air, it causes suffocation.
The insect itself can move within the body, making it extremely difficult to locate its hiding place without a Byakugan.
Miki looked at White Fang and asked, "Captain, do you know that Nikuruma…?"
White Fang should know him.
"We've fought before…" White Fang said, "He's very strong, a truly terrifying Taijutsu-type Shinobi."
"And now, do you have the confidence to defeat him?" Miki asked.
After a moment of hesitation, White Fang slowly nodded.
As expected, he knows him.
"Since he's an old opponent, I'll leave him to you."
After giving the mission, Miki inexplicably said, "After this, you can do whatever you want, without worrying about the Village."
White Fang slowly nodded.
At that moment, a dull whooshing sound echoed from outside the house, followed by a barrage of Kunai that tore through the wall.
In an instant, a large quantity of transparent thin threads surged from beneath her sleeves, then quickly formed an arc-shaped wall, blocking the Kunai coming from all directions.
Uchiha Style Wire Control Swordsmanship: Bud Dance.
The main purpose of this technique was to protect Miki's new tool-person.
Miki pushed the table and stood up, saying, "Then, let's get moving. The mission is to kill and set fire, burn this place down to ashes."
"Operation start."
As she finished speaking, White Fang silently used Earth Release and rapidly sank.
Naori transformed into a Butterfly and vanished.
Hitomi stayed with Miki, slashing the wall with her sword. A wall collapsed to the ground, and through the opening, she followed Miki out of the shop.
Shin'en obediently stayed put.
A crescent moon hung high in the sky, and the chilling aura of the night permeated the air like water.
Looking around, Shinobi stood on the high rooftops, holding various Shinobi Tools.
Giant Fūma Shuriken, Ninjato, Shinobi scythes, gauntlet claws, Shinobi staffs, meteor hammers, and more.
The cold, emotionless Shinobi Tools reflected a eerie, chilling light under the moonlight.
Pairs of eyes filled with killing intent sharply watched the two.
Hitomi slowly drew her sword.
Miki reached out and stopped Hitomi.
She looked at the dozens of Shinobi surrounding them.
"No matter which country's Shinobi you are, if you cause trouble on our Fūma Clan's territory, you're dead."
A Shinobi spoke coldly.
Miki answered him by clapping her hands together.
Instantly, the pupils of many Shinobi collectively constricted.
Too fast! The activation of the Ninjutsu!
Their feet moved, and they instinctively began to dodge.
And at this moment, green beetles erupted in swarms from Miki's body.
Their spiracles opened, and as they moved rapidly through the air by jet propulsion, they scattered like starlight, each locking onto a target.
One could only see streams of eerie green light trailing green lines, flying rapidly towards the locked-on Shinobi.
What is this!
The Shinobi collectively brandished their weapons in retaliation, attempting to block the attack.
But there were too many insects, and their flight speed was too fast; they simply couldn't block all the green light dots in time.
One could only see an insect collide with a person's body, its sharp mouthparts piercing the skin, then burrowing beneath it, causing the skin to bulge.
Upon seeing this, the Shinobi's eyes widened in terror.
This was followed by a second, then a third insect invading the body, after which Wind Release Chakra was expelled.
Insect Secret Technique: Dance of the Winter Storm Chariot: Cicada Shell.
"What is this!?"
Startled cries rose one after another.
Air currents jetted out, either from the abdominal cavity, the chest cavity, or the limbs and cheeks, swelling rapidly and eerily, then the bulges exploded.
Instantly, a bloody rain bloomed in the air.
Before screams could even be uttered, shattered limbs rained down from the sky.
Pieces of severed limbs fell to the ground, piling up into ghastly white bones, and blood spread.
The pure white hooded robe was stained with large patches of crimson blood.
Dozens of Shinobi were annihilated in an instant.
The bloody storm lasted for a brief few seconds before stopping.
Miki slowly lowered her clasped hands.
Letting Hitomi cut them down would be too slow.
Miki turned her head to one side.
The Shinobi in the shadows felt their hands and feet turn cold.
This scene was too cruel and shocking to the eyes.
What kind of Jutsu was this, anyway?
And Shin'en, who had been secretly watching this scene, collapsed to the ground, utterly powerless.
Now, he knew the consequences.
To be able to develop Wind Release to such a cruel extent, this person must be the true Fūma!
