The Strongest Swordmaster in the World of Naruto

More than half of the hired samurai now lay helpless, many already dead, and the remaining few could only lie there with severe wounds. Only eight or nine might still be able to survive, but even that was doubtful.

"Damn it, am I going to die here today?" Eiki said with a trembling voice, his face pale with fear. Eiki's body began to shake, panic spreading throughout him as he realized the life-threatening situation he was in.

Eiki's eyes darted around, trying to find a way out, hoping for a glimmer of hope amidst the darkness that enveloped this journey.

Suddenly, from the darkness of the night, a man appeared dressed in a black cloak that covered his entire body. The man's eerie smile contrasted sharply with the shadows around him, giving off a terrifying aura that seemed to beckon disaster.

"Hehehehe, you all will die here," the man continued in a hoarse voice that made Eiki's heart race. "After that, I will take everything I like. Your bodies will lie here, left to be feasted upon by wild beasts." As he spoke, the man pulled out a sharp kunai from beneath his cloak, glinting in the moonlight.

Eiki, witnessing this, fell silent. Fear constricted his chest, making him shiver. Eiki shouted, his voice filled with panic, "Hey you! What are you waiting for? Quickly finish off that man! I paid you to escort me! Protect me properly!" Eiki's face radiated genuine fear, but it only heightened the tension in the atmosphere.

The samurai who heard Eiki's shout exchanged glances. There was a sense of doubt in their eyes, caught between duty and the instinct to survive. A number of samurai, who valued their lives more, quickly rushed away, while others—those with true honor in their souls—prepared to fight to the end. With burning spirit, they charged forward, but just a few steps in, they fell with their heads severed, their bodies lying stiff on the ground.

Seeing that horrific scene, Eiki collapsed to the ground, screaming in terror. Eiki immediately jumped out of the carriage and ran, trying to escape. However, as if fated to die in this place, a strong wind suddenly blew, and in an instant, Eiki's head was severed, as if cut by an invisible force.

"Heh, trying to escape from the great Foko Sako? That's a foolish act!" Foko Sako, the rogue ninja from Sunagakure, said mockingly. "I won't let my enemies go without feeling the loss of their lives." Foko's cold laughter echoed in the air, adding to the fear that enveloped the scene.

Suddenly, a calm voice interrupted Foko's laughter, sending chills down his spine. "Is that so?" The voice came from the darkness, stirring curiosity and fear within Foko. With sharp instincts, Foko quickly turned and jumped away, ready to face a new threat.

From the depths of the forest, a figure stepped out, a man cloaked in black. A demon mask with two horns protruded from his forehead, adding to the mysterious and frightening impression. At his left waist, a gleaming katana was ready for use. The man was Aoki Sora.

How could Aoki be there when his journey should have been long? In fact, it was Foko who had taken the path toward Aoki to ambush a merchant, who was none other than Eiki Yotu—the victim who had fallen into Foko's hands earlier.

"Who are you?" Foko's voice sounded firm, his sharp eyes staring at Aoki. Foko's face indicated caution; he realized he could not sense the presence of the figure standing before him. Aoki, having little chakra in his body, was able to perfectly conceal his presence from sensory jutsu.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?" asks a girl next to Reiji.

"What? Who are you? No, who are all of you?" Reiji instead questions back, staring in wonder.

"What do you mean? Aren't we all Uzumaki?" the girl replies with a puzzled expression.

"... Oh damn," Reiji mutters quietly.]
