A cat-eared girl chasing after hi man
The girl’s blue eyes never left the young man’s back as she leaped from rooftop to rooftop
The tere disciples who had trained together When the girl’s parents died, the young man took her in as his sister and she loved him like a true older brother
The young man had been proud of his sister when she becareat ninja’s of the Blade Heart Clan…… However, as he was right now, Sasuke didn’t re about her
Finally having been able to find him after his disappearance, it was discovered that he’d become an undead, a existence detested in this world
An undead…… so The envy they felt towards the living caused them to spread death wherever they went
Nothing more than a soulless corpse
However, the person reflected in her eye was the same one she always knew
The scoldings they received froether…… nothing had changed since then
“Sasuke-oniisan! Wait!”
Chiome used her water ninjutsu to throater shurikens at Sasuke’s feet, but he simply leaped into the air and threind blade in response
However, Sasuke was caught off guard by the flame arrow that was shot at him from behind shortly after he landed
“!?”
When he turned in the direction the arrow ca from a nearby rooftop
The arrow of fire she had created closed in on Sasuke, but he easily avoided it with a slight movement, as if it hadn’t affected him at all
The Arrow of Fire swept ineffectively past Sasuke and hit the roof, the i countless pools of fire all around hiht out of the sky, trying to hit him from a blind spot
Sasuke, who had been distracted by the Arrow of Flame, had a delayed reaction to the attack and was forced to escape the point of i the air in aard position
When the spear hit the roof, the explosion knocked roof tiles into the air and created a large hole in the impact zone
Confronted with Ariane’s actions, Chiome started to shout
“Ariane-dono, wait! That’s my brother……!”
Ariane gave Chioirl said that
“Chiome-chan, you already know, don’t you? The person you knew is already gone”
Ariane’s voice had a low and sharp tone to it as she looked directly into Chiome’s blue eyes
Chiome eyes flickered between Ariane and Sasuke as she contemplated what had been said
She started to question her own hesitation Sasuke took advantage of her confusion to draw the tords from his waist and attack her
While she was able to dodge the first strike and fend off the second one with her dagger, Sasuke kicked Chio to the next roof
“Hrng!”
Coughing up blood, Chiome could only fall down and absentmindedly watch as the distance between her and Sasuke widened
Wisps of flame flickered al
l over Ariane’s body and transformed into multiple flame arrows that were shot at Sasuke’s back
However, Sasuke kicked the air and dodged the shuriken fro them at her
Sasuke’s forte was controlling the trajectory of projectiles
Time seemed to slow to a near standstill as Chiome watched the shuriken approach her chest
The gentle sht her how to throw a shuriken crossed her mind
He would stay with her until sunset while they trained…… the perfect example of a senior disciple
Whenever she sulked after being unable to land a single hit on her sparring partner, he would offer her a troubled smile The face of Sasuke fro person in front of her
The sound of hts and the shuriken Sasuke had thrown fell to the stone pavement below
“Chiome-chan!!”
Ariane’s shout returned Chio her own dagger
A tiny smile appeared on Chiome’s face as she realized she had reflexively blocked the shuriken
Her blue eyes drifted froer to the face of the red-eyed man in front of her
The wind blowing between them carried the sound of a far-off conflict
Ariane stepped between the two of theain
“Chiome-chan fall back! I’ll deal with him!”
However, the sudden appearance of two black giants caught all three of the the entire area
“”VuaawVuahahaaaaa!!!””
The giants’ chest eyes all focused on Sasuke and they started to charge him with their axes raised above their heads
The giant’s considerable weight collapsed the roof as they ran, causing the
But the giants were so angry they sis with their axes
As the building collapsed it produced an avalanche of rubble that affected the whole area
As the giants fell along with the collapsing building, Ariane used her spirit ic to create a solid foothold out of earth, and Chiodown
Sasuke had leaped into the sky and was now just standing in the air, observing the situation
However, he i the air to escape
Suddenly a star-shaped shuriken was thrown at Sasuke from his blind spot and embedded itself into his foot
When the foreign ele him to fall on top of the rubble heap
“Chiome-chan”
Seeing what happened, ariane’s eyes widened in surprise as she looked at the person who had thrown that shuriken
The one who had thrown that shuriken had been Chiome
“Are you alright? Are you gonna be able to do this?”
Ariane worryingly called out to Chiome, but she simply shook her head and answered
“I’ll do this I areat ninjas Ariane-dono, could you please restrict the giants’ movements for a while?”
Chiome had an aard smile on her face as she asked Ariane for her support while the two giants freed themselves from the rubble
“Alright I’ll finish this quickly and come help you!”
Ariane spoke with a s up the mound of rubble
A stone foothold for balance
Both her golden eyes ide open as she drew her sword
Her body began to produce lights that began to spread throughout the entire area
The lights were various shades of veran to resonate as she started chanting again
