Chapter 47: The Hunter and the Prey

In the afterglow of dusk, the quiet forest became more and more deserted, and as the time went on, just as the sun set and the moon rose, a sudden wind interrupted the silence.

"That kid ran so fast that he erased his tracks by the way. ”

Naturally, it was the group of neshinobi under Danzo who chased into the forest, and they lost Lewis's whereabouts not long after chasing them, and they didn't even find a trace.

Lewis, who is straightforward, is not good at covering his tracks, but he has his own way, which is to disturb all the tracks by leaving a slight flame in the woods as he jumps through the woods.

And in this cold night, those small flames will not be extinguished quickly, nor will they make any big fire.

Just after making sure that the other party had lost his traces, Lewis hid among several lush branches, completely hiding himself, and Neshinobi, who was good at assassination, became his prey at this time.

And after Xiaomeng told him that Tuan Zang didn't chase him, Lewis, who was relaxed, was finally in the mood to joke.

"You said that this fire should be fine, you must know that I am a little panicked when I set fire to the bottom of the mountain prison and sit through. ”

"You're still in the mood to play poor, it seems that you're not so tired, you shouted tired and tired when you practiced the knife before, did you pretend to show me?"

After a few words between the two, they suddenly fell silent again, not because they had nothing to say, but because they knew that the enemy had chased them nearby, and now they had to wait for them.

When the three enemies appeared in sight, Lewis knew that they were searching separately, so he sneered disdainfully, but when he was about to make a move, Xiaomeng suddenly reminded him.

"I'll start with it, this battle is all up to you, although I know where they are all distributed, but I won't reveal anything to you, only the kind of invincible opponent, I will point you out. ”

He said that he would not tell him the location of the enemy, but this sentence made it clear that the three ninjas were just bait, and there must be companions lurking near them, just waiting for Lewis to show his head.

After knowing Xiaomeng's kindness, Lewis pressed his mind and waited again, even his breathing was constricted to the point of being inaudible, and the three ninjas separated again after searching for a while, but looking at their separate directions, it was enough to help each other.

"This distance is really good, equilateral triangles, it seems that they are in units of three, and each squad forms such a formation. ”

It's just that although the other party is cautious, they underestimate Lewis's speed, and at that distance, he is enough to kill one in seconds and then escape, so that they can't rescue each other.

At this time, Lewis is not in a hurry to do it, if he wants to carry out an assassination, of course, it is better to get rid of the one who walks last, just like in movies, every time he secretly kills the last person, making them fall into a panic, and when he can't take care of the beginning and the end, it is the end of the enemy.

As the two more teams swept past Lewis's hiding place, he was surprised to find that the man at the end of the group subconsciously glanced at him, and at the same time the man's companion pulled him.

"Damn, I'm surrounded!"

At this time, how could Lewis not know what was going on, in fact, the other party had already discovered him, just pretended not to know, and then advanced in this seemingly cautious but flawed formation, just to make him careless, and then quietly besiege him.

In this way, whether Lewis can't help but shoot in advance, or has the idea of hiding and not moving, he can't escape their net.

Knowing that he was hiding here now was extremely stupid, Lewis couldn't care too much, and with one hand, he directly set fire to the big tree where he was staying, and then flew out as if he was fleeing.

And his action quickly alarmed the enemy, only to hear a shout, the ninja who was looking at him before was the first to rush over, and at the same time, several people suddenly appeared in the shadows not far away, and set up a formation like lightning, blocking Lewis's way.

"It's a real problem, but I'm still fit for this kind of frontal fight. ”

Lewis laughed at himself in front of the few people in front of him, but his hands were not idle, and the raging flames condensed again, turned into a fiery blade and swung it over.

Since he had already decided to fight, it was better to be more refreshed, but just when he burst out of speed, two flying birds suddenly crossed in front of his eyes, disturbing his vision for a moment.

With such a delayed effort, the people behind had already caught up, and the people in front of him were ready, and the ninjutsu in his hands had finished sealing.

"Soil Escape, Earth Flow Wall. ”

I saw that a high wall suddenly rose in front of Lewis, and he had just stopped, and the other three sides also had earthen walls rising, completely sealing him in.

While Lewis was completely locked up like a prisoner, a young man with his mask off stood on top of the earthen wall, watching him silently, while two small birds were hovering beside him.

"Sakai!"

When he saw the two birds, Lewis understood that they were actually drawn by him, but the shape-shifting bird shown in the anime at the beginning was a ten-out ink painting style, which made people see the authenticity at a glance, but he didn't expect that it was actually no different from a living being, and his ambush fell into the eyes of the other party from beginning to end.

Immediately afterwards, figures appeared on the earthen wall, and if you looked closely, there were as many as 12 people, a total of 4 teams, and it was not sure if there were other people lurking nearby, and the situation seemed to be in a desperate situation.

"I don't know if it's an honor or a misfortune for me to send such a big battle to a small shinobi. ”

Looking at Lewis, who had become a turtle in the urn, Sakai did not rush to make a move, but made a gesture, and his companions scattered one after another, each taking out a scroll from his body, this threat could not be more obvious.

"You and I can be considered to know each other for a while, go back with me, if you resist stubbornly, I'm afraid you will only die. ”

Even though he was still a teenager, the words he said were so callous, which made Lewis feel a great irony, and when the virtual became a reality, the awkwardness made him feel extremely absurd.

Knowing that he was in a catastrophe, Lewis put away the long knife in his hand and held his head high: "It's okay to go back with you, but I don't understand, why do you want to do it the day before the last exam, tomorrow there are many big names who come to watch the competition, one less contestant, your tickets are afraid it will be very difficult to sell." ”

Although Lewis's words were a little strange, it didn't affect him to express his meaning, and for his question, Sakai was silent for a while and chose to refuse to answer.

"Since you know the name of the chief, you should know something about him, and when the time comes, you can ask him directly. ”

Lewis would not be so stupid as to be so stupid, in fact, he could guess one, two, three, but because a month had passed, the three generations saw that he had been fine, and their protection of him was relaxed, so that Tuan Zang found a chance.

And I don't know how many people have come to the Land of Fire these days, and there are still Lord Kazekage in the Land of Wind who needs to be greeted, all kinds of security and reception, all need people, how can I spare someone to take care of Lewis.

Seeing that the other party didn't want to say, Lewis didn't ask anymore, but just patted the earthen wall next to him and felt the thickness to judge if he could break it and escape in an instant.

And his action fell in the eyes of others, which immediately attracted a burst of ridicule: "You may not know what kind of ambush is outside, even if you break these walls, you will just fall into another trap." ”

"Hehe, of course I do!"

How could Lewis be the kind of person who willingly restraining himself, after a roar of rage, he did not choose to break through the wall, but shot straight upwards like a cannonball, and the target was Sakai.

"Stubborn, looking for death!"

Looking at Lewis's hateful eyes, there was no sadness or joy in Sakai's eyes, and his companions shot one after another, and all kinds of ninjutsu recorded in the scrolls poured out, mixed with all kinds of chaotic hidden weapons, pouring down like mountains and waterfalls.

After guessing the special features of Lewis, Tuan Zang changed the order to kill to capture alive, and their nearly ten ninjutsu plus various hidden weapons were released together, and ordinary people would have been beaten into scum long ago, but knowing that Lewis was rough and thick-skinned, they still felt that it seemed a little insufficient.

Capture alive is not to bring it back intact, but to cripple it, as long as it can speak.

Under the bombardment of the power of various attributes, Lewis, who had just jumped up, was bombarded, but Sakai and the others were surprised to find that the prey, which should have been invulnerable, actually showed signs of melting at this time.

"Oh no, that's a clone!"

Sakai was the first to react, but it was too late, only to hear a loud roar, a whole three heads rose to the sky, the owner of the head was still standing on the earthen wall, when the blood in the neck cavity sprayed out, the headless corpse fell.

"Light and darkness, but what is the time!"

Lewis, who had made a great effort, did not leave, but continued to run towards the enemy while his momentum was at his peak, and with a casual wave of the long knife in his hand, it brought up an endless wind of fire, and the heat and wind pressure overwhelmed the enemy not far away.

At this time, Sakai and the others didn't have time to think about how Lewis was hiding, they only knew that the enemy was like a rainbow at this time, and if he was allowed to cut out the next sword, then even if the number was still superior, they would just become a group of lambs facing the lone wolf.

In the face of the knife that was like death, even though the three of them had experienced a hundred battles, they were also intimidated by that momentum, and they couldn't move for a while, and by the time they reacted, they were already more than a beat slower.

It's just that Lewis's knife failed to cut down, and several ninjas who didn't face Lewis came to the rescue early, only to see the earthen wall suddenly split from it, separating Lewis from them, and at the same time, countless spikes appeared on the wall where Lewis was standing, not to hurt him, as long as he could slow down his pace.

The frightened three people saw that they were saved, and their heartbeats finally eased a little, but at this moment, they were surprised to find that Lewis, who was still in front of them just now, had disappeared.

As if going back in time, the terrifying scene that had happened before reappeared, and the heads of three of his companions flew away from their bodies, and after falling to the ground, their bones rolled around a few times, and the pupils under the mask were full of disbelief.

And Lewis, who somehow got to the other side, raised his long knife and pointed it at Sakai, saying a proud word that made their souls fly.

"Have you ever heard of the Flying Thor?"
