Instead, a frenzied fighting spirit prevailed.
Kiyoshi stared at him with great interest.
The Kaguya clan was even more fanatical than the Uchiha clan. In the original story, their excessive pursuit of battle ultimately brought about the destruction of their clan.
The Hidden Mist Village disposed of this clan itself.
"Dance of Karamatsu!"
Instead of attacking Kiyoshi immediately, Kaguya Katsuya grew dozens of bone roots on her body, piercing through her clothes and exposing them to the air.
These bones allow him to withstand high impact and strike opponents in close combat. The more powerful the opponent's physical or charging attacks, the more effective his counterattacks become, inflicting serious damage.
"Tsubaki's Dance!"
Kaguya Katsuya shouted again, his figure disappearing from the spot. When he reappeared, he was already in front of Kiyoshi.
The bone sword held in his left hand was swung rapidly, like branches swaying in the spring breeze.
Corpse Bone Pulse: Dance of the Camellia!
This move is one of the six dance styles known for its speed.
Qing Si clenched his fist, and brilliant arcs of electricity and flames intertwined in his hand.
The Thunderfire Sword swiftly clashed with Kaguya Katsuya's bone sword.
Kiyoshi's swordsmanship improved significantly after his battle with Hanzo the Salamander.
Instead of immediately using his strength to suppress Kaguya Katsuya, he forced him to use more sword techniques.
"The swordsmanship of Kirigakure..."
Kiyoshi absorbed these exotic sword techniques with great eagerness.
He first learned the swordsmanship of the Cloud Village School, then the Uchiha School, and finally the Amegakure School of Hanzo the Salamander.
Swordsmanship can be described as a mixture, or rather, a variety of techniques.
If you want to go further, you need to extract most of the dross and then refine the essence.
Kiyoshi was not in a hurry to complete this step.
We should wait until he has collected the mainstream sword techniques of the five great nations before making any decisions.
"Are you... studying me?"
The fighting spirit in Kaguya Katsuya's eyes exploded to its extreme.
How could they possibly underestimate him from the Kaguya clan?
Let the battles that were left unresolved in the Chunin Exams come to an end here!
"As expected, you have incorporated a lot of swordsmanship techniques that only Kirigakure can use into your swordsmanship."
Kiyoshi's crimson Sharingan clearly observed Kaguya Katsuya's every move.
The trajectory of chakra flow, the points of force exertion between muscles, and the subtle reactions of nerves—none of these escape Kiyoshi's eyes.
Chi Chi Chi!
The sound of something cutting through the air rang out continuously. As the two clashed, the ground beneath their feet cracked, and dust flew up.
The bone sword, which should have been indestructible, began to develop a chip, which gradually grew larger.
Kaguya Katsuya watched this scene in shock.
Kiyoshi's ninjutsu was sharper than his!
Is this... the cutting technique of Lightning Release?
Kaguya Katsuya looked warily at the Thunderfire Sword in Kiyoshi's hand, and made her own bone sword thinner and thinner.
Until a certain moment, it snapped open with a crack.
"The bones of the Kaguya clan are actually broken."
Terumi Mei, standing in the distance, stared in astonishment.
The stronger the Kaguya clan ninjas are, the more adept they are at manipulating bone cells, making the bones they create virtually indestructible.
Kaguya Katsuya is definitely a genius no less than her.
But the bones he created were still easily broken by Kiyoshi.
laugh!
The instant his bone sword shattered, Kiyoshi unleashed a slash.
Kaguya Katsuya had no time to dodge and could only take the hit head-on.
His skin was peeling away layer by layer, revealing the white membrane underneath.
This is the periosteum.
"Ha...ha...if I hadn't covered my periosteum under my skin beforehand, that blow would have been enough to kill me."
Sensing the danger to her life, Kaguya Katsuya showed no fear; instead, she licked her own blood.
"Before I take your life, I want to ask you if you've ever heard of the name Kimimaro?"
Qing Si flicked the Thunderfire Sword, and the blood on it evaporated rapidly.
"Kimimaro? You know my nephew? No, you know me..."
Kaguya Katsuya frowned. How could Uchiha Kiyoshi possibly know a newborn baby?
The only possibility is that he had contact with Kaguya's clan, met her relatives, and thus learned of this information.
Is this considered a threat?
"Judging from your reaction, the baby must have already been born."
Qingsi understood.
Itachi, Naruto, Sasuke, and others were delayed in being born due to his influence.
However, other, more distant areas were unaffected by his influence and continued to develop as usual.
For example, Hyuga Neji, the son of Hyuga Hizashi.
Kiyoshi did not interfere, and so it came into being.
Kimimaro was the same.
"They could be recruited as subordinates."
Kiyoshi secretly said.
Kimimaro, despite being seriously ill, managed to force open the second stage of the Cursed Seal and even fought Lee and Gaara to a standstill.
If he weren't so young and plagued by serious illness, he could easily grow into a Kage-level fighter in the future.
When the thugs of the Qing Si were fully qualified.
"We also need to check on Kabuto Yakushi's side."
After thinking about it, Kiyoshi realized that he also needed to make a trip to the orphanage.
It would be best to recruit someone as talented as Kabuto Yakushi as soon as possible, lest he be lured away by Orochimaru.
The Sound Five from the original story are probably being born one after another.
Several of them have good experimental value, and the only female one, Tayuya, also has the potential to be recruited.
What difference does it make whether you're born or not?
Feeling threatened, Kaguya Katsuya, in a fit of rage, pulled out her own spine, which formed a whip-like contraption.
Clematis Dance - Vines!
It makes the spine like a whip to attack and bind enemies; its resilience makes it difficult for anyone to escape.
With a snap, Kaguya Katsuya wrapped the bone whip around Kiyoshi, and then a large number of bone cells began to emerge from her right hand.
After expending a large amount of chakra, Kaguya Katsuya completely covered her right hand with a white bone spear.
It's called a bone gun, but it's actually more like a drill.
"flower!"
Kaguya Katsuya shouted.
He used his final move, "Clematis Dance - Flower"!
The "vines" on the right hand are a technique specifically designed to grab enemies. Now, they are used as spears to attack with bones hardened to the limit of the user's strength. This technique is also known as the Dance of the End!
"Uchiha Kiyoshi's defenses cannot withstand this attack."
Obito watched this scene unfold.
With his ability to "hollow out," he easily shielded Nagato's two puppets from attack.
To avoid drawing attention, they retreated with the puppets after the dust from the explosion.
"Madara, what if Kiyoshi dies?"
Nagato frowned.
Kiyoshi is currently the intermediary between Akatsuki and the Ninja Cat Clan; without him, the supply of ninja tools would be affected.
"If he dies, then... no, he shouldn't die, at most he'll be seriously injured."
Obito almost blurted out that it would be better if he were dead.
But such words didn't fit Madara's character, so he spoke in a flat tone, pretending not to care at all.
He wanted Kiyoshi dead, but he didn't forget that Kiyoshi also had the "Flying Thunder God Technique".
"Let's see how Uchiha Kiyoshi responds."
Obito's conversation with Nagato via the puppet ended quickly, and both of their attention turned to Kiyoshi.
"Such a bone whip can only prevent people from escaping, but it cannot bind their hands to form hand seals."
Qing Si clapped his hands together, forming a prayer-like gesture.
"Of course, we don't need to care whether you form hand seals or not!"
Kaguya Katsura swung her bone drill and thrust it fiercely at Kiyoshi, creating a series of whooshing sounds as it cut through the air.
"is it?"
Qingsi smiled slightly.
"Wood escape..."
A massive amount of chakra was mobilized, and a rumbling sound immediately echoed from the ground.
"The Tree Realm has descended."
Countless thick, menacing, and intertwined trees burst forth from the ground.
Almost instantly, the gnarled trunk of the giant tree rose from the ground, its diameter easily exceeding the circumference of an embrace, twisting and rushing in all directions.
Kaguya Katsuya's bone drill was immediately affected, becoming tightly entangled by tree branches.
"My chakra..."
Kaguya's eyes widened in shock, and the chakra she used to control her bone cells was suppressed!
"Wood Release!"
Everyone present looked at Kiyoshi in surprise.
Neither the Hidden Mist ninjas nor their allies like Kushina and Mikoto expected Kiyoshi to use the "Wood" Release technique.
Jiraiya and Minato, who had just arrived from afar, were also stunned in place.

The long-lost "Wood" Release technique has actually been performed by someone.
Minato Namikaze and Jiraiya exchanged a glance and then sped up.
Rumble!
