Konoha, Just Like Kizaru

This kick shattered Kumo Shinobi's body, leaving him lying helplessly dying in the dirt pit. 

"He's too fast; I can't see his attacks clearly..." 

One Kumo Shinobi gripped Lindy with one hand while anxiously watching Simu's movements. 

Despite his focus, he couldn't keep up with Simu's speed. In a flash of golden light, Simu appeared right in front of him.

"Sir, can you please let go of that girl?"

Kumo Shinobi's face was pale with fear.

He held Lindy tightly, pressing his kunai against her neck. 

"Don't you care about these women? If you come any closer, I'll kill her!"

As he shouted angrily and took a step back, Simu stood calmly, his hands still in his pockets. The smile on his face slowly faded. 

"I hate it when others threaten me." 

In an instant, Simu vanished like a flash of light. 

The Kumo Shinobi reacted quickly, raising his kunai, ready to take Lindy down with him. 

"Stab!" 

He slashed a few times but hit nothing. When he turned his head, he saw Simu behind him, holding a glowing sword and smiling. 

His arm had been cut off by the sword without him realizing it. 

The speed had been so overwhelming that his brain couldn't catch up. 

He hadn't even felt the pain until now. 

"What!" he cried out, the shock of his severed arm sending waves of agony through him.

He no longer has the courage to be an enemy of Simu at this time.

Regardless of his broken arm, he tried his best to stay away from Simu.

"Can you travel faster than the speed of light?"

Simu pointed a finger, and a golden light shot out, piercing the Kumo Shinobi's heart in an instant. 

He felt his strength fading away.

Even before dying, this Kumo Shinobi still couldn't understand why a thirteen-year-old kid had such terrifying power.

As the golden light faded, Simu gently set Lindy down beside a tree.

"Mr. Simu..."

Hyuga Lingyi gritted her teeth in anxiety. "Leave me! Go save Kushina!"

"Just wait a moment," Simu replied as he looked up. 

There were still four opponents left: the Kumo Shinobi and the traitor Tayura. 

"I can take out two of them at a time." 

Leboe slowly stood up, fear etched on his face. 

"As expected of the Konoha Supernova, Hanyu Simu." 

He had heard of Simu's reputation before.

But seeing it now, it was overwhelming—almost terrifying. 

Just one encounter, and he had killed two veteran ninjas, one of whom was a Jōnin.

"Oh, so you know my name?" 

Simu scratched his nose. He wasn't surprised that Leboe recognized him.

After all, in just a year, his name had become well-known, and his abilities were iconic. 

He was tied with Dust Release, the only Kekkei Tōta.

But...

"My name isn't just 'Yellow Flash'; it's Kizaru," Simu emphasized. 

In the future, Namikaze Minato would be known as the Yellow Flash.

It's just too unremarkable to call yourself "Yellow Monkey." 

Leboe's eyes were filled with danger. 

"As the legends say, your behavior and words are truly in poor taste," he said coldly. 

"Tayura, Shige, and I will hold him off. Shibo, you take the Nine-Tails Jinchūriki and leave quickly." Tayura glanced at Leboe.

It was clear that he didn't want to stay. 

Leboe didn't hold back: "Tayura, If you go, you die. You should want to live." 

Every extra person means more strength. Even if they were weak, they could buy some time against Simu. 

He had to deliver the Nine-Tails Jinchūriki to Master Ai safely.

Seeing Leboe's determined expression, Tayura realized there was no point in discussing it further. 

He had no choice but to go along with the plan. 

"I'm going to fight him!" 

Lightning crackled around Leboe. 

This was a technique from Kumo Shinobi Village that stimulated his muscles with Lightning Style, greatly boosting his speed.

Of course, Leboe's speed couldn't compare to that of the Third Raikage or Ai. 

However, it was still far beyond what ordinary ninjas could handle. 

It was his mastery of Lightning Style Chakra Mode that had allowed him to stand out during the Second Ninja War, earning him the title of Elite Jōnin in Kumo Shinobi Village. 

Yet, he never expected that a mere child would force him to use this technique today.

"It's Lightning Style Chakra Mode—it's really scary!" 

Simu remarked as he stood protectively in front of Lindy, ready for what was to come. 

"Boy, I'll show you the true strength of Kumogakure!" 

Leboe declared. After Simu had quickly defeated several of Kumo Shinobi's Jōnin, it had been a blow to Kumogakure pride. 

Leboe was determined to make this brat understand just how powerful Kumogakure really was, even if it cost him his life today.

In a corner out of Simu's sight, a special Jōnin named Shige made a subtle gesture. 

Shibo was preparing to leave with Kushina. 

"Did I say you could go?" 

Simu shouted as he quickly caught up to them. 

This time, however, he was stopped by Leboe, who had activated his Lightning Style Chakra Mode.
