"This move was definitely on par with A-Rank ninjutsu," said one of the Jonin, swallowing his saliva.

"Yeah, but according to the information we received, his strength is no more than that of an Elite Chunin. I'm going to kill the bastard who ever says he is a weak Chunin after using such a move. He doesn't even have drops of sweat on his face," said another Jonin, with fear clearly visible on his face.

Some of them, upon witnessing Jiryoku's strength, felt compelled to leave. However, just as they began to retreat, Jiryoku positioned himself in their path, blocking their escape. "Where do you think you're going?" he questioned with an air of challenge. "If you seek to claim my head, make certain you're capable of taking it." With those words, he swiftly swung his blade, unleashing a wind-charged slash aimed in their direction. Their immediate response was to evade Jiryoku's attack, but as they attempted to move, they noticed a sudden heaviness in their bodies, hindering their agility and preventing swift movement. Consequently, Jiryoku's slash mercilessly cleaved five ninjas in half horizontally.

Witnessing this gruesome scene, another group of ninjas felt a chilling shiver race down their spines. Among the five individuals slain, two were Jonins, and their untimely deaths left the remaining ninjas in shock. Though their instinct urged them to flee, their escape plans were abruptly halted by a voice that pierced through the air. "If you attempt to flee now, you will meet the same fate as them. Your best option is to follow my lead, or else you shall meet your demise."

Curiosity piqued, the bounty hunter ninja inquired, "Who are you, and what makes you so confident in your ability to confront that monstrous being?"

Upon hearing the bounty hunter's question, the group of six ninjas burst into laughter, removing their masks and revealing their faces. The sight left the other ninjas astounded. "You are the renowned 'Black Hunter' group, with each member attaining the rank of Jonin. Your leader's strength rivals that of the Kages from the major villages."

Upon hearing these words from the bounty hunter ninja, all six members of the group displayed a sense of pride, their faces adorned with smiles.

"Now that you're finished indulging in fantasy, allow me to inform you that the leader of your group is nowhere near the level of the Kages from the major villages. At best, you're slightly superior to Elite Jonin, but I highly doubt you could emerge victorious against an Elite Jonin from a major village," retorted Jiryoku.

Upon hearing Jiryoku's words, the smiles on the faces of the 'Black Hunter' group swiftly transformed into expressions of anger. However, being seasoned professionals in their line of work, they understood the perils of losing their composure during a battle, knowing all too well that such anger could lead to their demise.

"Even if what you say holds some truth, it will still be sufficient for us to defeat you," proclaimed their leader, drawing his sword confidently.

The leader lunged at Jiryoku with his sword, imbued with the wind attribute, proclaiming, "Let me demonstrate true Swordsmanship."

Jiryoku, however, refrained from infusing his sword with any elemental chakra. Instead, he employed Armament Haki, enveloping his entire blade, easily parrying the leader's attacks without encountering any difficulty. "Your Swordsmanship is commendable, but it appears that I made a mistake in anticipating a challenging duel from you," Jiryoku remarked. Seizing the opportunity, he swiftly slashed at the leader's exposed vulnerability. However, at the last moment, the leader managed to evade the strike, leaving only his garments cut while his body remained unharmed.

Hearing Jiryoku's words, the leader's expression changed, prompting him to swiftly retreat from his position. He then unleashed Wind Release - Spiralling Wind Ball, hurling it towards Jiryoku. However, Jiryoku effortlessly evaded the attack, and despite the leader's persistence in releasing the ninjutsu, Jiryoku's "Observation Haki" enabled him to repeatedly dodge it.

Simultaneously, two ninjas from the Black Hunter group launched an assault on Jiryoku from both sides. In response, Jiryoku uttered, "Gravity Pulse," releasing a repulsive force from his position that sent the attacking ninjas hurtling away. Swinging his sword, now infused with Armament Haki and blessed with wind chakra, Jiryoku moved swiftly, making it exceedingly difficult for the members of the Black Hunter group to dodge, but they somehow managed to move away, but, the remaining four ninjas whom they stopped were swiftly killed on the spot.

Jiryoku intended to press on with his assault, aiming to eliminate the remaining ninjas from the 'Black Hunter' group. However, their leader intervened, halting Jiryoku's advance. Determined to conclude the fight swiftly, Jiryoku made a decisive choice. "Gravity x8," he declared. Instantly, an immense gravitational force descended upon the area, causing the leader's movements to become rigid and restricted. Exploiting this opportunity, Jiryoku launched a relentless series of attacks against the leader. Although the leader was a seasoned veteran and managed to parry Jiryoku's strikes, he was horrified to witness his sword gradually shattering with each clash. After four impactful collisions, the leader's sword finally broke, signifying the end of his life. Just as anticipated, his head was separated from his body. The other ninjas from his group attempted to rescue him, but as they approached within a 10-meter range of Jiryoku, they too succumbed to the overwhelming gravitational force, becoming trapped.

Having killing the leader, Jiryoku showed no mercy to any member of the group, systematically eliminating them one by one until none were left standing.
