⚫ Episode 10 – “The Curse Unleashed: Riko’s Rampage” 🌪️

🌙 Scene 1 – Training Ground at Dusk

The sun begins to set as Kurozai, the silent and deadly member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, stands calmly in a clearing with Ayu, a kunoichi specializing in explosive-style jutsu.

Ayu kneels on the ground, placing paper bombs onto kunai with perfect chakra precision. She's in intense training mode.

Suddenly, Riko walks out from behind the trees, his eyes narrowed.

Riko:

“Kurozai. What do you want from the village?”

Kurozai smirks slightly, then calmly begins to perform a mysterious hand sign sequence.

Kurozai:

“Let’s see what you're hiding, boy.”

A strange dark wave of chakra flows from Kurozai’s palm toward Riko—it glows red and purple. As it hits him, Riko’s body trembles, his veins bulge, and...

Dark lines begin creeping from his neck across his chest and face—a curse mark reaction.

Riko’s eyes widen, then turn cold. He loses control.

💨 Scene 2 – Kaede’s Senses Tingle

Back in the village…

Kaede is sipping tea when she suddenly drops her cup.

Kaede:

“...That chakra.”

She dashes outside and finds Dan and Suki hanging around the street corner.

Kaede (angrily):

“Where the hell is Riko?!”

Dan (confused):

“I-I don’t know! But like, there was this boom—”

SLAP!

Kaede slaps Dan across the face.

Kaede:

“This is not a game, Dan!”

Just then, a dark flash appears behind them—Riko in Curse Mark Stage 1, black lines pulsing across his skin, chakra spiking wildly.

Suki (shocked):

“Riko…?”

Riko growls, eyes glowing violet. Without warning, he launches a massive blast of cursed chakra toward the trio.

🛡️ Scene 3 – Kaede vs Riko

Kaede instantly pushes Dan and Suki aside, forming hand seals.

Kaede:

“You’re not yourself. Stand down!”

Riko roars and charges in at incredible speed. His strength, speed, and reaction time are off the charts.

Riko uses Lightning Blade Rush, a modified version of his Chōrī technique, infused with curse energy.

Kaede dodges, narrowly avoiding a slash that cuts through a tree like butter.

Kaede:

“He’s stronger than before… that curse mark...”

Riko flips mid-air and shoots black lightning kunai, which Kaede counters with Earth Style: Mud Wall. Then she counters with Fire Style: Scorch Barrage, but Riko just absorbs the flames into his curse seal and rushes through.

💥 Scene 4 – The Final Blow

Kaede, battered and bleeding from a hit, stares Riko down.

Kaede (whispers):

“I won’t let you harm your friends... even if I have to break you.”

She quickly weaves a seal — "Binding Seal: Thousand Needles of Light" — a rare Jonin-level technique.

Riko charges again — his curse-mark-enhanced punch ready to shatter bones — but...

ZAAAMMMM!!!

A thousand glowing chakra needles pin him mid-air. He struggles violently, roaring like a beast — but the more he fights, the more the needles multiply and trap him.

Riko screams — then collapses, unconscious.

🤕 Scene 5 – Aftermath

Dan and Suki run up.

Suki (teary-eyed):

“Riko…”

Kaede drops to one knee, bruised and breathing hard.

Kaede:

“Take him to the medic hall. We need to suppress that curse mark before it eats him alive.”

She looks at the black lines still faintly glowing on Riko’s skin.

Kaede (thinking):

“Kurozai… you’ll pay for this.”
