The ogres have high defense and hard bones, and my strength is not enough to completely sever their arms, as can be seen from the effect of the shuriken backstab.
Su was not surprised, after all, he did not know martial arts and had not systematically trained to strengthen his body. In terms of strength alone, he was just an ordinary person.
It is obvious that an ordinary person's strength is insufficient to sever the arm of a supernatural creature like a cannibal.
Su's current goal is not to kill the cannibal, otherwise he would have already used the Great Fire Extinguisher or the Explosive Talisman. He wants to train his reaction speed and increase his combat experience.
Right now, we're only dealing with relatively easy monsters like shapeshifters and cannibals. But if we encounter vampires, ghosts, or other supernatural beings later on, our reaction speed will be even more crucial.
If you have the Sharingan or the speed and reaction ability of a ninja in anime, that's fine, but if you don't... a vampire's speed is indeed very troublesome.
With advance preparation, Su felt that with her current abilities, she should be fine. However, if she were ambushed or caught in a sudden encounter, she could at best remain undefeated, like chickens pecking at each other, and killing the other would not be so easy.
It wasn't that Su Shi had become arrogant, nor was it that he was greedy and immediately set his sights on vampires after thinking he could deal with cannibals. He simply didn't want to feel stifled.
Well, perhaps the Su family has a different definition of frustration. If they can't easily kill their opponent, then they feel frustrated.
When his first attack failed, Su did not retreat but advanced, facing the enraged and ferocious cannibal, and began to fight the cannibal at close range in the not-so-spacious mine tunnel.
Using his physical advantages and keen observation, although it seemed dangerous, Su's experience and reaction speed were indeed improving rapidly. His original tension had long since disappeared, replaced by unparalleled calmness. He even began to counterattack while dodging.
Whether it was his hands, feet, or other parts of his body, Su seized the opportunity to attack the decapitation sword while dodging.
That's right, it's a decapitation sword.
Although the decapitation blade failed to sever the ogre's arm, it cut very deep. The enraged ogre did not pull out the blade; it now had only one thought: to kill Su Shi.
"Snapped!"
Another palm strike landed on the decapitation blade. This strike had been charged up for a long time, and it directly caused the decapitation blade to sever the last connection of the cannibal's arm.
"Bang."
The decapitation sword fell to the ground, and the cannibal's arm also fell off with a thud.
The man-eating monster, despite the pain, endured the agony without howling. Its already ferocious eyes flashed with a fierce light as it recklessly pounced on Su Shi, who had sacrificed his dodging space for this punch.
"It's now!"
Instead of being surprised, Su was delighted. She released Gentle Fist Chakra from her chakra points, and at the same time, she swung her arms and rotated her body, starting to spin in a circle like a top.
In an instant, a hemispherical chakra shield enveloped the Su clan, completely sealing it off.
"Baguazhang·Huitian!"
"boom!"
The cannibal crashed into the chakra shield and was sent flying by the rapidly spinning Reincarnation Technique. Like a leaf in a raging storm or a small boat in a tsunami, it swayed and rocked, crashing directly into the roof of the mine at an extremely high speed.
With a loud bang, the entire mine seemed to shake, and then rubble and debris rained down on the cannibalistic monster that had already landed.
In the blink of an eye, dust filled the air, and the cannibal was buried underneath, with only its hideous and terrifying head sticking out, baring its teeth. A moment of disorientation ensued.
"Finally, I have a chance to try the Reversal of Fortune. Absolute Defense is indeed very strong, but it consumes a lot of chakra." Su Shi stopped, glanced at the Konoha headband he had attached to his left arm as an ornament, and then stretched out his arm and made a grasping motion with his palm.
"call out--"
The decapitation sword that had fallen to the ground suddenly disappeared and then mysteriously reappeared in Su's hand.
This is a small detail about the system that Su discovered some time ago: as long as it is a non-consumable item produced by the system, it can be instantly recycled no matter where it is.
The reason I noticed this little detail is that I was practicing shuriken while resting on the road. As a result, the shuriken flew a little too far because it wanted to fly freely. I was a bit lazy, so I tried to see if the system could retrieve it.
Holding a knife, stepping on the broken stones and scattered wood, Su stood on the man-eating monster that was crushed underneath, gripping the knife with both hands, and forcefully slashed at its head.
a bit.
a bit.
a bit.
It rises, then falls.
After slashing more than ten times, he finally severed the cannibal's head.
"Shapeshifters can be killed by powerful flames, and cannibals will die if their heads are chopped off. It seems that the fatal weaknesses of supernatural creatures are not so absolute."
Many people have killed cannibals, but probably none have swung their knives and chopped at the head a dozen times like Su did. After all, the difference in strength is obvious. Ordinary people would use the simplest and most successful method to kill a cannibal, and they would not have the opportunity to try anything else.
Even if someone knew that cutting off the cannibal's head could kill it, they probably wouldn't tell others, since this method isn't something everyone can use and the success rate is too low. It would be simpler to just tell them to use fire.
"You're here."
Su put the decapitation sword back into the system, looked up at Dean who was rushing over with a flare gun to help, and said with a smile, "You're too late!"
Dean glanced at the headless cannibal, opened his mouth, and remained silent.
A true decapitation sword!

Chapter 14 Strive to spend money, strive to become stronger—this is my ninja way! "Ding!"
Kill reward: 1 point.
The sudden notification sound startled Su Shi. The system actually had a kill reward setting?
Why aren't the previous shapeshifters here?
The mission has been completed, and the enemy has definitely been killed, so why is there no kill reward?
Is it because shapeshifters are not counted as kill targets for kill rewards? Or is it because quest objectives and kill targets cannot be calculated simultaneously?
"You..." Dean started to say but couldn't finish his sentence.
On the one hand, Su had actually killed the cannibal with a knife, and the knife had mysteriously disappeared; on the other hand, he didn't know how to face Su.
A week ago, he and Sam mistakenly believed that Sue was a demon, the murderer of their mother and Sam's girlfriend. Sue then taught them a lesson with Shadow Binding Technique and Nirvana Abode Technique, and even showed them the White Eye.
Su said she wanted to be friends with them, and reminded them that the Yellow-Eyed Demon was coming soon and that... Sam's girlfriend still had a chance to be resurrected.
Although they were skeptical, Sam still kept some of his girlfriend's DNA.
Along the way, they had speculated a lot about Su's identity and purpose, but they knew nothing about Su and had no way of making a judgment.
Then, Su mysteriously reappeared and saved them.
What a coincidence.
It was as if they knew exactly where they and Sam would end up.
"How did you do that? I mean, I clearly saw that knife just now, how did it disappear?"
"Ninjutsu."
"That kind of ninjutsu?"
"Ah."
"The way you controlled Sam and put us to sleep before, was that also ninjutsu? And your eyes, you said they're a bloodline limit, one of the three great dojutsu, that's also ninjutsu?"
"I remember it very clearly."
Su smiled and gestured for Dean to leave first, saying as they walked, "My ninjutsu is different from ordinary ninjutsu. It is a ninjutsu released by hand seals using an energy called chakra, which makes it easier to distinguish. You can be considered a chakra ninja."
"Chakra is an energy produced by the perfect fusion of physical energy and spiritual energy in the body's cells. Not everyone has chakra, and not everyone can become a chakra ninja."
If given the chance, Su would really like to try to train tangible supernatural beings like vampires and werewolves into ninjas. If successful, wouldn't that be considered a bloodline limit?
What is the bloodline limit?
The art of inheritance through genes based on blood relations.
Key point: Genes!
When vampires or werewolves transform, their genes undergo a complete change. This change is fixed and mostly irreversible. Therefore, vampires and werewolves are actually considered bloodline limits, just not the kind of bloodline limits that ninjas in Naruto recognize.
"Who exactly are you?" Dean was curious about chakra and chakra ninjas, but he wanted to find out Su's identity even more.
"I know what you want to ask. I have nothing to do with your family's affairs. It's just that I know a bit too much and I'm interested in your future experiences, which is why I contacted you."
Su suddenly stopped in her tracks: "Let's stop here."
"Wh-what do you mean?" Dean was taken aback.
"See you next time."
With a knowing smile, Sue's feet turned into quicksand, and she slowly sank and disappeared under Dean's dumbfounded gaze.
"No, it's gone?!"
Dean looked at the ground, which had returned to normal, and tentatively stepped on it. It was very solid and there was no way anyone could fall on it.
"Snapped!"
He instinctively slapped himself across the face: "It's not a dream, it's not a hallucination, it's really, it's really gone!"
The underground Su family noticed Dean's actions and shook their heads in disbelief. This guy is a bit simple-minded.
The chance encounter was successful, but Su did not plan to travel with them for the time being. They did not know where the next stop would be or what they would encounter, but Su knew.
The spirits of the water, also known as water ghosts, were bullied by their peers when they were young and were drowned in the water. Their bodies sank into the lake. Many years later, they began to take revenge, drowning one of the swimming champions' daughters and sons, along with themselves.
The other man's son had also drowned earlier, and his daughter-in-law and grandson had also nearly lost their lives. In the end, he sacrificed his own life, jumping into the river to save his grandson's life and appease the water ghost's resentment.
The Wen brothers' biggest contribution throughout the entire process was investigating the reason why the water ghost killed people and saving a mother and child. As for dealing with the water ghost?
I'm sorry, but there are no corpses to cremate. I cannot do it!
Su was more interested in the Wen brothers' next adventure, which included a demon and a face he recognized.
"I still need to hurry up and become stronger."
"Spend money diligently, become stronger diligently—that is my ninja way!"
After returning to the hotel, Su took a shower and lay in bed pondering how to spend money more reasonably and efficiently.
I had read a few novels about super-rich people before I transmigrated, but the environment, national conditions, and currency values are different, so many ways of spending money are hard to apply. Take buying a car, for example. An Audi A8 costs around a million yuan in China, right?
What about here?
I could buy one in a day, without even using Shadow Clone Technique.
I'll definitely keep buying cars, but the main expense will be buying houses.
