A crisp Water Cannon shot.
One of the once-revered Seven Ninja Swordsmen of The Hidden Mist Village was easily taken out.
Under the baptism of Tobirama No.1, the scattered forces of the Hidden Mist were almost completely wiped out.
The flames of Amaterasu are difficult for even a Kage Level to resist; once touched, a Chunin would certainly meet their end.
The approaching ground troops from Konoha, with airborne squads launching Poison Thousand Needles, launched a multidimensional assault on the terrified Hidden Mist Chunin.
Compared to using Ninjutsu, an injury from a poison-coated needle is a sharper and more efficient tool for slaughtering Chunin.
Under such strikes, the Hidden Mist Ninja who were still alive exhibited extremely high combat skills.
Some used their comrades' corpses as shields against the flames of Amaterasu, while others possessed exceptional solo combat capabilities, managing to find a way to survive through the sky and underground siege.
Amidst them, only the Seven Ninja Swordsmen with Jonin-level strength and a few highly potential Chunin still held hope for survival.
After this ruthless purge, only the elite remained in the Hidden Mist.
"Lay down your weapons, this senseless war is over..."
Aomi raised a finger, looking at a loyal Hidden Mist swinging a Samurai Sword who had heard his words, and fired another shot.
Splatter!
Another head exploded.
Aomi unleashed another Water Cannon Jutsu. Before him, the Blunt Blade user Jinin Akebino, who had just shouted a slogan to fight to the death, was mercilessly shot through the head.
Every shot by Aomi was extraordinarily precise, using the Hozuki Clan's pinpoint Water Release Ninjutsu to slaughter the Hidden Mist Ninja...
Whizz.
Whizz.
Whizz.
After a few rounds, the noisy battlefield quieted down.
The Hidden Mist elites, who still attempted a desperate struggle, watched as their enemies used the Second Mizukage's signature Ninjutsu to slay each of their kin, and their eyes widened...
Was Aomi really a Uchiha, or the battle maniac who once conquered the entire Hidden Mist with power — Hozuki Gengetsu?
Using Water Cannon Jutsu to kill Hidden Mist Ninja was Aomi's principle.
From Kaguya Kimijiro's mindset to the confusion of Kisame, Terumi Mei, and Zabuza.
The Hidden Mist Village was quite twisted; they had no one ideology or principle to unite the village's people.
Since establishing the position of Mizukage, there had been no legacy or way to speak of, everything was a pursuit of strength, with no art of governance or management.
Clearly a natural fortress, a precious gem of the Ninja World that was easy to defend, hard to attack, it was bizarrely turned into the Blood Mist Village, a living hell.
Aomi's finger joints, and even his entire arm, gradually ossified, a Bone Armor Mask covered his face.
Aomi surveyed the remaining Hidden Mist Ninja and softly said, "I want to give you a path to life, a chance to start over..."
"Lay down your weapons."
And behind Aomi, Terumi Mei wisely stood by his side, winking at the familiar ninja on the battlefield.
Kisame and Zabuza did the same, closely following Aomi.
These individuals were famous figures in the Hidden Mist.
Either they were geniuses from the Bloodline Ninja Clan, or reliable operatives from the Anbu...
Kaguya Kimijiro also understandingly cleared his throat, leading his clan members who had undergone personality correction through the Iron Fist and Mystical Palm Jutsu, forming ranks to slowly come forward, indicating their stance.
The other Hidden Mist Ninja who witnessed Aomi's Steaming Danger also stepped forward, orderly lining up at the back of the queue.
On the battlefield front, Hidden Mist Ninja stared in disbelief at the scene.
An enemy, master of the Water Cannon Jutsu, who instantly killed several Ninja Blade Group and Hidden Mist Jonin, was followed by the village's powerful ninja clans, including the Kaguya and Terumi, as well as prodigies from the Anbu.
The scene was too strange.
Strange enough that Biwa Juzo, originally determined to resist, started questioning his existence...
Was he a loyal servant of the Hidden Mist or a traitor to the village?
From the numbers perspective, it seemed that the Hidden Mist Ninja standing behind Aomi outnumbered those still resisting...
What on earth was happening?
Biwa Juzo took a deep breath, silently apologizing to the Third Mizukage in his heart, tossed his Decapitating Carving Knife to the ground, raised his hands, and crouched down, expressing his lack of intent to resist.
There was no need to fight anymore...
If other Hidden Mist Ninja continued to resist, harboring anger and hatred towards Aomi, fighting till their last breath...
Then dying on the battlefield might mean that someone would remember him, commemorate him a decade later, holding some value.
But most of his comrades now stood on the opposite side, and even if he bled his last drop for the Third Mizukage, no one would remember him.
This death would be meaningless.
Many Hidden Mist Ninja, like Biwa Juzo, shared the same thoughts. Kurosuki Raiga too laid down his weapon, as did the brother of Hozuki Suigetsu —
Hozuki Mangetsu, known as the prodigy favored by the Ninja Blades, capable of mastering all seven Ninja Blades, lost his will to fight upon witnessing Aomi's Water Cannon Jutsu and had no desire to resist further.
Being from the Hozuki Clan, he was the one in the Hidden Mist who could best comprehend Aomi's mastery over the Hozuki Secret Technique of Water Release...
Even the strongest recorded member of the clan, Second Mizukage Hozuki Gengetsu, never demonstrated such a proficient Water Cannon Jutsu as Aomi, delivering fatal blows that even elite Jonin could not counter!
