"Let me handle this!"

Yoruichi stepped forward, gently setting Rin down.

Might Duy turned to him, eyes filled with doubt. "Who are you?"

"I'm Yoruichi, a Jonin from Konoha. Don't push yourself anymore. Cancel the Eight Gates. If you keep going, you'll die."

Duy shook his head firmly. "I can't retreat! Those are the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist! I have to protect everyone!"

As Duy prepared to charge again, Yoruichi sighed, realizing words wouldn't convince him.

"Wood Release: Deep Forest Emergence!"

The ground cracked open with a deafening roar as enormous trees erupted, twisting and expanding into a massive forest. The terrain transformed instantly, trapping the remaining six members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen within a deep basin. Toxic flowers bloomed across the branches, releasing thick clouds of paralyzing pollen.

The swordsmen froze in shock.

"This is... Wood Release?"

"Who is he? I've never heard of someone like this in Konoha!"

"So young… is he a prodigy?"

Uchiha Mikoto set the injured student she was carrying down, her gaze fixed on Yoruichi's back, her expression filled with surprise. Even Haruno Tazuna stared, dumbfounded.

Might Duy hesitated as Yoruichi's display of power made the entire battlefield fall silent. Finally, he released the Eight Gates Formation and collapsed, breathing heavily. His right arm and leg hung limply.

"Dad!" A young Might Guy rushed forward, tears streaming down his face.

Duy patted his son's head weakly. "I'm fine, Guy..."

And with that, he passed out.

"Don't worry," Yoruichi said, glancing at Guy. "Your dad just fainted. He's alive, but his arm and leg are broken."

"Please, help him!" Guy pleaded desperately.

Yoruichi turned to Mikoto. "Mikoto, take care of Duy. I'll deal with the swordsmen."

"Understood," Mikoto said quickly.

Yoruichi vanished in an instant.

The Six Ninja Swordsmen, realizing they were outmatched, began retreating.

"This is insane! Let's get out of here!"

Before they could escape, dozens of Yoruichi's shadow clones appeared around the basin.

"Shadow Clone Jutsu!"

Roots and vines shot out from the massive trees, chasing and entangling the fleeing swordsmen like predatory plants.

Mikoto glanced at the battlefield and shook her head in disbelief. "This level of power…"

"Sensei!" Guy shouted, snapping Mikoto back to reality. "Stop staring! Help my dad!"

Mikoto flushed slightly, then crouched to heal Duy.

Nearby, Rin knelt and joined in, using her own healing jutsu.

"You can heal too?" Guy asked, wide-eyed.

Rin nodded politely. "Yes, I'm Rin Nohara, from the Seventh Squad."

"Cute and talented," Mikoto remarked with a smile before focusing back on her healing.

Meanwhile, the fight continued.

One of the swordsmen, Raiga Kurosuki, wielding the Thunder Swords, unleashed a surge of lightning that destroyed the approaching roots and vines. Yoruichi's clones moved in to subdue him, but Jinpachi Munashi struck from behind, using explosive tags attached to his sword.

The resulting explosion wiped out several clones.

"Not bad," Yoruichi muttered, appearing behind Jinpachi. A clone dashed toward him with crackling lightning in its hand.

"Wood Release: Thunderstrike Vines!"

The vines wrapped around Jinpachi, surging with lightning-infused chakra, cracking the air with a high-pitched crackle as the electric current flowed through them, delivering a painful shock. Jinpachi screamed, his arm severed from the current.

Raiga retaliated, electrocuting the clone with a wide arc of lightning, but more clones swarmed in. Within minutes, all six swordsmen were either injured or restrained by Yoruichi's relentless attacks.

The last to fall was Fuguki Suikazan, who tried to use the Hidden Mist Jutsu to escape.

"Water Style: Hidden Mist Jutsu!"

Thick fog enveloped the battlefield, but Yoruichi merely smiled.

"Running won't help. I still have questions for you."
