Naruto: Reborn With Combat Simulation Space

However, at this moment, it was already too late for them to escape, as Kazuki had already entered his hunting phase.

Before they could run a few more steps, he charged towards them, bringing sparks and lightning with him. In just a moment, three had died under the Sword of the Thunder God.

As for the remaining two, Kazuki did not continue the pursuit. Instead, he left them to Kushina and Rinka. Tsunade's intention for this mission was for them to experience bloodshed.

If Kushina and Rinka didn't kill anyone, wouldn't their mission this time be in vain?

Battles are not much different from regular combat training, they must grow. Some things cannot always rely on others.

This isn't like Honor of Kings or League of Legends, where you need to steal kills and others can still get an assist.

Kazuki didn't deny that everyone in the squad had their own value, but it was better to give up some kills.

Seeing that Kazuki had no intention of taking all the kills, Tsunade nodded in satisfaction.

She used the Body Flicker Technique to appear beside Kazuki and asked with curiosity, "I didn't expect you to have so little emotional fluctuation after killing someone."

"What did you feel when you killed for the first time?"

Kazuki looked at Tsunade with a hint of curiosity. To be honest, he really didn't feel anything.

Indeed, the opponent was a living being, but the education he received from a young age told him that the opponent was an invader and deserved to die.

He felt his emotions were quite stable, almost unlike an Uchiha.

However, Kazuki would not reveal his inner journey. Even if he told others, they wouldn't be able to learn it.

"Me? I didn't feel anything."

Tsunade recalled her own situation. It seemed that Jiraiya had vomited, and as for herself, although it wasn't too good, she at least didn't vomit. Orochimaru, on the other hand, was emotionally calm.

"As ninja, once you go out to kill, you must be prepared to be killed. At that time, those who care about us are the ones who will truly suffer."

Kazuki said quietly, "So we must do our best to get stronger, not let ourselves die, and kill our enemies."

Tsunade fell silent. She hadn't expected Kazuki to say such words, but upon careful thought, his words seemed very reasonable, and they also aligned with the Will of Fire.

After all, it was still about protecting the people he cared about. He would feel sad for the deaths of his friends and those around him, and he would protect them.

Sometimes, death is a release. They feel nothing after death, but the living suffer for them.

Tsunade stepped forward and gently stroked Kazuki's head, saying softly, "So, to keep others from being sad for you, you must protect yourself well."

As for Kushina and Rinka, Tsunade wasn't too worried. In the future, these two would spend most of their time in Konoha.

It's impossible for something to happen to them even within Konoha, or for them to be kidnapped, right?

If that really happened, what would be the meaning of Konoha's existence?

At this stage, Tsunade still had full confidence in Konoha.

"Mm."

Kazuki's face showed a confident smile. He wasn't too worried about himself. Instead, he was worried about Nawaki and Mikoto.

In fact, he was mainly worried about Mikoto. In the original plot, Mikoto didn't graduate so early. After graduation, she joined the Konoha Military Police Force and then married Fugaku.

But now Mikoto is Orochimaru's disciple, and most importantly, Nawaki's teammate. During this period, those around Nawaki are in grave danger.

Moreover, Mito and Tsunade are very kind to him, and Nawaki is also his friend. Kazuki didn't want anything to happen to them.

Kushina and Rinka ultimately did not disappoint Kazuki and Tsunade. Facing the two ninjas, they spent some effort but finally took them down.

After dispatching their opponents, neither Kushina nor Rinka looked very good. Rinka's originally fair complexion became incredibly pale.

"Are you alright?" Kazuki stepped forward and asked them with concern.

"I'm fine, I've seen worse."

Upon mentioning this, Kushina's eyes dimmed.

Evidently, she was thinking of the destruction of the Land of Whirlpools.

Kazuki nodded slightly and then looked at Rinka, who shook her head, feigning strength, indicating that she was fine.

Tsunade waved her hand and said loudly, "Alright, this stronghold has been dealt with. To reward you, we'll go to a nearby town for a good rest."

"You won't need to feed mosquitoes in the wild today. Aren't you happy?"

"Can we take a bath?"

Kushina immediately chattered, "I want to eat a big meal, and soak in a hot spring."

Tsunade gave Kushina an exasperated look.

How could this child be even more extravagant than her? She must have been a bad influence.

"Okay, I'll take you to eat a big meal. As for whether there's a hot spring, we'll have to see if there's a bathhouse in town first." Tsunade thought about her current mission and agreed.

Kushina joyfully said, "Yay, Tsunade-neesan, you're a good person!"

Rinka gazed at Tsunade thoughtfully for a long time. Connecting it to their conversation about the Anbu yesterday, she seemed to understand Tsunade's intention and ultimately said nothing.

Kazuki shook the blood from the Sword of the Thunder God and returned it to its sheath, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes.

These Amegakure ninjas were just an appetizer, not the main course. He was looking forward to the battles to come.

Little did he know, his strength had already attracted the attention of Sakumo and the Root in the distance. Although the opponent was weak, he was still a Jonin, yet Kazuki ultimately won and killed him.

So, what level had this young boy's true strength reached?
