Daimyo /Chapter 60 Konan

The blue-haired little girl was in tears, her small hands clutching the woman's pant leg tightly, her tiny body like an angry kitten, screaming at the Konoha Ninja.

The woman's tears flowed like a flood from a melting iceberg, down her snow-white cheeks. Her trembling legs stood firm like an ancient tree, protecting the blue-haired little girl with her frail body.

"Teacher, save them quickly!"

"Alright, get ready."

Mitsuki Kōmei nodded vigorously. Under Yahiko's bewildered gaze, he grabbed him, swung him in a circle, and threw him towards the Konoha Ninja.

"Invincible Wind and Fire Wheel, go!"

The three heard Mitsuki Kōmei's voice and simultaneously turned their gaze towards him.

Mitsuki Kōmei covered Yahiko's entire body with Wind Release to protect him from harm.

Yahiko, flying through the air, flailed his limbs and shrieked wildly.

"Teacher, I hate you! Ahhh, ouch, ptooey, ptooey, ptooey!"

Yahiko and the Konoha Ninja met face-to-face, colliding with a 'thud'.

The Konoha Ninja was sent flying over ten meters before finally stopping.

"Are you two alright?"

Mitsuki Kōmei instantly appeared beside the two, asking as softly and kindly as possible.

"We're fine, thank you, sir, for saving us. Konan, come thank the uncle. Sir, you can call me Mihui."

Mihui bowed deeply to Mitsuki Kōmei, then pulled Konan, who was hiding behind her.

Konan raised her small hand, wiping away her tears with the back of it. Her big eyes stared at Mitsuki Kōmei with curiosity and fear, and she said shyly, "Thank you, Uncle, for saving Konan and Mom."

"Hey, why don't you thank me? I helped too, you know!" Yahiko jumped out from the side, shouting in dissatisfaction.

"Right, right, and our great hero Yahiko! Go on, that Konoha Ninja is looking at you with fire in his eyes. Go deal with him!"

Mitsuki Kōmei gently pushed Yahiko forward.

Yahiko swallowed hard and kept backing away.

"Teacher, I haven't learned Ninjutsu yet. I'll give you the chance to show off your might. I'll cheer you on!"

"Coward! I give you a chance, and you're useless!"

Mitsuki Kōmei let go of Yahiko, and the little brat instantly hid behind him, defiantly raising his middle finger at the Konoha Ninja.

Mihui picked up Konan and, in a few quick steps, also hid behind him.

After Mitsuki Kōmei and Yahiko's antics, Konan was no longer so afraid. Sitting in her mother's arms, she made a funny face at the Konoha Ninja.

"Who are you? How dare you ambush me?" The Konoha Ninja gripped his kunai, pointing it at Mitsuki Kōmei.

Mitsuki Kōmei turned his head, looking at the Konoha Ninja out of the corner of his eye.

"Does it matter? As a Ninja, attacking civilians and children—you've disgraced Konoha."

"Bastard! Do you know who our captain is? Orochimaru! One of Konoha's Sannin, personally acknowledged by the Ninja World's demigod!"

The Konoha Ninja lifted his head, his chin almost at a 90-degree angle.

"Very impressive? Is it something to be proud of? Your behavior is like me giving you the title 'Son of a Turtle' and you showing it off to everyone you meet."

Mitsuki Kōmei said lightly.

Konoha's Sannin represented the acknowledgment of the Ninja World's demigod, which Mitsuki Kōmei felt was just a trivial matter.

It's like the top student telling the second-place student, "Not bad, always the bridesmaid."

"You bastard! You're asking for it!"

The Konoha Ninja was furious. Three shuriken flew directly towards Mitsuki Kōmei's face.

Mitsuki Kōmei extended his right hand, and a wind wall formed in front of him. The shuriken hit the wind wall with three 'ding-ding-ding' sounds and fell directly to the ground.

He pushed forward with one hand, and the wind wall, like a high-speed car, crashed into the Konoha Ninja.

The Konoha Ninja hurriedly used the Body Flicker Technique to dodge. The wind wall destroyed several large trees behind him.

"Hey, little brat, isn't that move cool? Do you want to learn it?"

Mitsuki Kōmei flicked his hair, saying smugly to Yahiko.

Yahiko's eyes lit up, and saliva almost drooled from the corner of his mouth.

"Yes, Teacher, teach me!"

"Uncle, I want to learn too!" Konan raised her small hand, staring at Mitsuki Kōmei with longing.

"Okay, I'll teach you when we get back."

While Mitsuki Kōmei was talking to the two little ones, the Konoha Ninja had been quietly retreating.

"You're not going to run, are you?"

"Hmph, just you wait! I'll definitely tell the captains what you said. You're as good as dead!"

The Konoha Ninja raised his hand and threw two kunai. Each kunai had an Exploding Tag tied to it, exploding the moment they landed.

A large amount of muddy water splashed up, and the resulting mist blocked Mitsuki Kōmei's vision. The Konoha Ninja intended to use this opportunity to escape.

"Wow wow wow, so much fun, so amazing! I want to get a lot of those Exploding Tags later too!"

Konan clapped her small hands, her eyes curved into crescents, and her little face filled with excitement.

Exploding loli.

Mitsuki Kōmei's eyes narrowed to a certain arc, and he made a gun shape with his hand, pulling the trigger at the Konoha Ninja.

A Wind Release bullet flew at supersonic speed, aiming directly at the fleeing Konoha Ninja.

The Konoha Ninja heard the sound of air being torn behind him. His instincts, honed by years of training, made him use the Substitution Jutsu in less than a second.

"Oh ho, he actually dodged it. Let's see how many you can dodge!"

With that, a second Wind Release bullet shot from his finger.

The Konoha Ninja had dodged the first attack and was highly vigilant, watching Mitsuki Kōmei's movements. When the second Wind Release bullet appeared, the Konoha Ninja was already prepared.

He used the Body Flicker Technique to dodge the Wind Release bullet and fled into the distance. During his escape, he created a Shadow Clone to confuse and distract Mitsuki Kōmei.

"Tch, amateur."

Mitsuki Kōmei raised his other hand, firing both 'guns' simultaneously. One Wind Release bullet hit the target, which turned into smoke.

The 'dual-wielding' Mitsuki Kōmei continuously fired a dozen Wind Release bullets at the Konoha Ninja. The Konoha Ninja couldn't dodge in time and fell to the ground, severely wounded.

Mitsuki Kōmei was having a blast, especially with the two little ones' eager and adoring gazes. He felt very satisfied.

He walked over, brought the Konoha Ninja back, and threw him in front of Mihui and Konan.

"How to deal with him, you decide. Avenge your grievances, settle your scores."

Mihui put Konan down, picked up a kunai from the ground, and held it with trembling hands. She slowly walked towards the Konoha Jonin.

"Let me go! I'm a Konoha Jonin! If you dare to kill me, Konoha won't let you off!"

The Konoha Jonin clutched his back, glaring fiercely at Mihui as she approached him.

Mihui trembled even more at his glare, but her steps didn't stop. The scoundrel in front of her had almost killed her daughter; she had to get revenge.

Reaching the Konoha Jonin, Mihui bit her lip, closed her eyes, and forcefully plunged the kunai in her hand into the Konoha Jonin's chest.

"You'll regret this!"

The Konoha Jonin's eyes widened, and he fell, unwilling.

Mihui staggered back a step, then collapsed next to a muddy puddle, frantically scrubbing her blood-stained hands.

Konan, with her short little legs, ran to Mihui's side and threw herself into her arms. The mother and daughter hugged each other, crying bitterly, yet with faint smiles on their faces.

The dark clouds in the sky seemed to be happy for the mother and daughter's release, briefly parting to let a path of sunlight through the clouds, gently caressing their weary faces.

Mitsuki Kōmei walked to the Konoha Ninja's corpse, reached out to close his eyes, and casually took something.

Half an hour later, Mihui and Konan calmed down, gathered their belongings, and left with Mitsuki Kōmei.
