Chapter 67: Dawn Strikes

"Just rest here for a while. In the dark forest, Ning Ci, who walked in front of the team, said. His white kimono had been dyed gray by this time, and it was covered with irregular black markings. It was a black stain on a branch when the garment skimmed over it.

This forest is not normal, the autumn wind is bleak at this time, but the vegetation in this forest does not turn yellow, but the color changes to a black-green as if soaked in black ink, and the leaves are curled and wilted.

According to ancient records, every time a big monster is born, it will affect the surrounding climate and environment. Legend has it that the drought was born, thousands of miles away. This forest is probably also affected by the power of the dragons.

Ning Ci naturally noticed the unusualness of this forest, he squatted down and inserted his hand into the soil, the soil was very wet, and he could pinch out black water stains with a pinch of his hand. Pick a leaf and rub it in your hand slightly, and the leaf will be twisted and crushed like tofu.

There is an ancient legend that the dragon lives in weak water and is the demon of the water plague.

Ning Ci knew that they were very close to the dragons, unusually close, even if the dragons appeared in front of them at this time, it would not be strange.

The reason why the white eye is called the first pupil in the ninja world because unlike the writing wheel eye, which only improves its own strength, the observation and perspective ability of the white eye can play a huge role on the battlefield.

Because of their white eyes, their team easily crossed the cordon of terracotta warriors and horses controlled by the dragons, and penetrated deep into the forests of the Swamp Country without a single battle.

Ding Ci's shadow clone carefully lowered the sedan chair on his shoulder, and turned into two clouds of smoke. The tiredness from the shadow clone made Ding Ji stumble, and he held on to the thick tree trunk with his hand, reached into his ninja bag, took out an emerald green pill, put it in his mouth and chewed it gently.

The bitter medicinal smell fills the mouth, and when swallowed in the stomach, it immediately stimulates the body to produce chakra at an extremely fast rate.

Pig Deer Butterfly, these three families can not only cooperate seamlessly when fighting, but also form the strongest political alliance within the ninja village.

Because of their political alliances, they are the largest political force in Konoha except for the Hyuga clan, the largest clan in Ninja Village.

Not only that, but economically, their industries are also interconnected.

The Yamanaka clan ran a flower business, but a large part of the property on which they grew flowers belonged to the Nara clan.

The Nara clan operated the herbal medicine industry, but their herb processing technology was not as good as that of the Akido clan, so most of the herbs they produced were processed by the Akido clan into pills such as the Ryō pills.

The Akido clan produces medicines such as military food pills, but they are not proficient in sales, so except for Konoha which has a direct store, the medicines made by the Nara clan are generally sold by the Nara clan.

It is not an exaggeration to regard the three families as one family.

Letting go of his hand holding the tree, Ding Ji found that his hand was stained with black, oily stains. The dry tree is now seeping out of its branches and leaves like a plant on the bottom of the sea. He wiped his hand on his clothes, and took out a soldier food pill and put it in his mouth.

He looked at the sedan chair that had made him work hard for several days, and couldn't help but wonder if the weak witch sitting in the sedan chair could seal the dragon.

But in less than a minute, he put this doubt behind him, and the feeling of fullness in his stomach gradually relaxed, and he was half-lying on the black grass, leaning against the trunk of a tree to relieve his physical fatigue.

"Do you want to come out and breathe?" Ino whispered to the shrine maiden in the sedan chair.

"No need. The ethereal voice passed through the sedan chair and clearly reached Ino's ears.

Ino was not surprised, and the shrine maiden had been staying in the sedan chair for the past few days, except for the necessary relief.

"The one in the sedan chair is probably a fake. Sitting on the raised tree roots, Shikamaru with his back to the big tree, squinted and said to Xiao Li beside him.

"Huh? Why?"

Ning Ci rolled his eyes several times, but found that there was no special chakra on this witch. Shikamaru simply closed his eyes and fell asleep, "You also know that white eyes can't be wrong." ”

"So, the real shrine maiden is in the ranks of the Iwa Shinobi?"

"Not necessarily. With his eyes closed, Shikamaru whispered.

"Not necessarily, Shikamaru, you make it clear. Obviously, there are two teams in total. Xiao Li shouted.

"Don't make me rest, Xiao Li. ”

Shikamaru obviously didn't want to answer Xiao Li's question anymore, and Xiao Li looked at Ning Ci and found that he was still with his eyes open. Since dying in front of their eyes every day, Ning Ci has rarely closed his eyes during missions.

At this time, in Ning Ci's sight, he found more than a dozen figures jumping in the forest and quickly approaching them.

"Go, there's an enemy coming. Ning Ci shouted. Ding Ci immediately separated the shadow clone and carried the sedan chair in the forest, and before the sedan chair, Xiao Li used his fist to break the branches blocking the road to open the way for the sedan chair.

Soon after the chase began, Ning Ci discovered that their speed was not as fast as that of the enemy, and they would soon be caught up by the enemy.

"Xiao Li, Ino, and Dingji, you take the shrine maiden first, and Shikamaru and I will snipe at the enemy, and we will soon be able to catch up with you. ”

"Understood!" the three people who ran wildly escorted the sedan chair and quickly disappeared into the forest.

"Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I've fought with you. Shikamaru who was standing beside Ning Ci grinned, his hands quickly sealed, and the black shadows turned into strands of fine silk threads that filled every part of the forest with detonation talismans.

He hid himself in the shadows of the forest.

"I'm not used to facing the enemy head-on, so it's up to you to fight head-on, Ningji!"

"No problem. With his hands pulled apart, Ning Ci put on a soft fist stance.

Rustling, clothes rubbing against leaves.

Through his white eyes, Ning Ji easily saw the ninja wearing a red cloud uniform on a black background that jumped down from the black forest.
