Chapter 49 - Whirlpool Empire cap 49

"The techniques of those monks turned out to be stranger than we thought."

"The power granted is greater than anything we have seen before."

In the ship's control room, Tsuji spoke excitedly and intentionally pointed at the force displayed by the enemy while looking at the faces of the 2 people on the screen. 

And as he expected, he could see the trace of interest on Sorai and Hina's faces.

Unlike him, Sorai and Hina are both constant fighters who were always looking to improve.

But at their current levels of power, it was difficult to break the bottleneck.

Therefore, they could only risk going to fight deadly battles to try to improve. 

Tsuji didn't want to constantly put his life at risk, so he pursued another life goal.

Lead the Uzumaki clan to conquer the world.

Of course, the Uzumaki patriarch was an obstacle they had to overcome, and only the monks' mysterious technique could give them any chance. 

"Open the barrier, we'll capture this samurai," Sorai said, and Tsuji just nodded, showing no sign of his inner smile.

"Sir, the enemy has stopped attacking the barrier and is heading towards the city."

Suddenly, one of the flight operators said something, and Tsuji suddenly had a bad feeling. 

And as expected, the enemy samurai only needed seconds to reach the side of the wall surrounding the city and cut with his sword. 

Although they couldn't hear anything from here, Tsuji was sure that many of the city's inhabitants screamed in terror when a huge beam of chakra sliced through the city's exterior. 

"Open the barrier for ships 46 and 47," Tsuji said as he watched the enemy go berserk while rampaging through the city. 

Reizo saw out of the corner of his eye how the barrier opened up in a certain place at a great height, forming a hole hundreds of square meters in size. 

But besides being too far away to try to reach it and escape through there, the hole closed in a matter of seconds. 

Although he was curious about the reason for the appearance of that opening in the barrier, Reizo paid no attention to it and continued with the massacre. 

In just a few moments he had launched 5 enormous chakra slashes, destroying a large area of the city's exterior. 

And looking in the direction from which the previous pillars of energy came, Reizo smiled before launching himself into the city to cause more havoc. 

Although this city was a city in the land of lightning, Reizo didn't care about destroying it and killing its citizens. 

After all, he wanted to escape from here, but the Uzumaki clan wouldn't allow it. 

His idea was that if the Uzumaki clan valued this city and wanted to keep it for themselves, they wouldn't want him to destroy it, and it was possible that they would fully open the barrier to allow him to withdraw. 

What if that doesn't happen? 

Reizo didn't care about destroying this city before he died and leaving the Uzumaki clan in a bad position. 

If people know that the city conquered by the Uzumaki clan was destroyed, others will think twice before surrendering to the redheads. 

Although he wanted to live, Reizo was mentally strong enough to accept his situation and benefit his country in the process. 

Of course, there was also the fact that he was wary of the enemy's mysterious weapon. 

Even with his newfound power, he could only defend himself for a few seconds against that pillar of energy. And if he lingered too long attacking the barrier surrounding the city, he risked being attacked again. 

Reizo didn't know if the power of the energy pillars that were fired at him was all they had or if they could fire with more power, but he didn't want to take any chances.

Therefore, he hoped that going deeper into the city would make it harder for the enemy to fire again.

On his way he encountered many redheads, whom he quickly guessed were part of the enemy. 

And although they wanted to escape when they saw it, they could not move more than a few meters before they and the nearby buildings were suddenly cut in half.

Ignoring the cries of pain from the inhabitants of the cut-off buildings, Reizo continued on his way.

He would have liked to hunt down the rest of the enemy army, but they were all over the city and it would take too long to search for them one by one. 

Instead, he preferred to use the little time he knew he had to destroy the city.

And as Reizo expected, Tsuji clicked his teeth as he watched his movements through his ship's screen. 

Although he did not care about the citizens of the enemy country or the members of the army under his command dying at the hands of the enemy, the merits he hoped to gain in this war were based on the resources obtained and the losses suffered. 

A city in ruins definitely wouldn't add much to his record, and the deaths of his subordinates wouldn't help either, so what Reizo was doing was not in his best interest. 

But Reizo made a mistake about something.

The ship had countless energy cannons and the power of each shot could be calibrated. 

Therefore, Tsuji was not worried about destroying the city any more than he was already doing. 

"We're ready," Sorai and Hina said. 

Their ships had entered the barrier and taken up position. 

While the enemy was rampaging through the city, the 3 ships had taken up a triangular position around it and had several of their cannons pointing in its direction.

"Calibrate the side cannons to rapid bursts." 

"And let all the ninjas inside the ship come out to fight the enemy"x3

The 3 commanders of the 3 ships gave the same order and all the ninjas inside began to move. 

As they were already prepared for battle, they immediately exited the ship through a side exit and fell from the air.

While some used wind chakra to glide through the air, others used earth chakra to lessen their weight and slow their fall, as well as fire chakra to generate enough force to do the same. 

Reizo noticed the sudden appearance of hundreds of ninjas falling through the air due to the sudden light in the sky produced by the fire chakra, but he wasn't too worried about it. 

Although he wanted to kill as many members of the enemy as possible, his main objective was to cause as much destruction as possible in the city. 

Either to prevent the enemy from maintaining it and gaining infamy, or to force them to open the barrier and allow their retreat. 

!!!!! 

But suddenly, his senses were heightened and he unconsciously slashed to the side. 

And with a sharp sound, his sword cut a beam of energy that split in half after being cut and continued on its way. 

But instead of continuing to pass through several buildings and melting everything in its path, the remnants of the beam of light quickly faded away.

The ship's computer had already calculated the power of each of Reizo's blows, so it was able to fire energy projectiles with enough power to cancel out each cut.

Reizo paid no attention to the disappearance of these energy projectiles as he needed to focus all his attention on the next battle.

A large number of energy beams began to be fired towards him at high speed and he responded with his sword at the same speed. 

Although these energy beams were not as dangerous as the previous energy pillars, Reizo could feel their power through his arms and understand that they would slightly injure him. 

And although he wouldn't be defeated by a single one of these energy projectiles, he would be in trouble if a barrage of them hit him. 

Meanwhile, Reizo began to move around the surrounding area looking to escape the siege. 

But no matter what he did, those projectiles always seemed to know where he was hiding and harmlessly passed through several buildings to reach him. 

Rather, it was he who caused the most destruction while trying to escape. 

And as Reizo began to move faster to escape the encirclement, more buildings were destroyed and more people died every second. 

!!!!! 

Suddenly his senses alerted him to the new danger and he quickly felt the group of large bursts of chakra approaching his location. 

When I turned to look towards the source of these energy fluctuations, I was met with the sight of numerous figures using the same technique that the previous group used to confront him. 

He knew that the Uzumaki clan had a technique to temporarily increase a ninja's power, but it was a surprise to Reizo that several people could use this technique.

Although none of them posed a danger to him, his current situation was not good. 

After all, he couldn't escape this barrage of projectiles and was already feeling the loss of power.
