Chapter 35: The Pursuit
In a cave in the country of Yu, Ryuyu and a few others temporarily inhabit here with the captured mist and the shinobi.
Yamanaka Kaichi's hand was placed on the head of the misty shinobu who was tied into a rice dumpling by blades of grass, and Haiichi's eyes were closed tightly with a serious expression. Ryuha knew that he was performing the Yamanaka clan's secret technique, "Ninja Mind Reading Technique", which could read the other person's thoughts directly without using any device.
Ninja and Mind Reading is an extremely convenient torture secret art. It was also with this skill that Yamanaka wrote his legend in the intelligence community.
Slowly, Yamanaka Haiyi's brows furrowed, and the three people of Ryuyu on the side looked at Haiyi's frowning brows and felt a little uncomfortable.
"Trouble!" Finally, Hai Yi opened his eyes and withdrew from the state of mind reading. But the first sentence after opening his eyes made Ryuyu and the others feel the slightest bit wrong. Troubled? Which one does it refer to?
Ignoring the doubts of several people, Hai Yi took out a blank scroll and a pen, and began to write on the scroll in secret words, and after writing, he sealed the scroll.
"The sunset is red, and the grass is a thousand feathers. Now order the two of you to return this confidential document to the camp as quickly as possible, and remember, you must hand it over to Orochimaru-sama yourself. Yamanaka said solemnly. This is the first time that Ryuha and Red have seen Hai Yi look so serious.
"Yes, guaranteed to complete the mission." Ryuha took the scroll and replied at the same time as Red. Ryu didn't ask about the contents of the secret letter, she knew that these were not what she should care about with her current position, she just needed to complete her part.
"Then what are you going to do next, Mr. Haiyi and Asma?" Red asked curiously.
"Asma and I will attack and kill the Fog Hidden patrol detachment at the right time to harass the enemy. At the same time, test some of my conjectures," Hai replied, but when he talked about some of his conjectures, a hint of seriousness flashed on his face again.
"Red, don't worry! In this war, Uncle Ben will definitely make his name, just like the three ninjas. In the future, people from other villages will carry out tasks, and as soon as they see Uncle Ben, they will be so frightened that they have to give up the task. Asma didn't care about the solemnity of Yamanaka Haiyi, but said YY on the side. Ryuha overlapped Asma and Uchiha Obito at this moment again.
.......
At their feet, the trees kept sweeping backwards, and Ryuha and Red were hurrying back to the Konoha camp.
Haiichi's serious expression lingered in front of Ruyu's eyes, as if it was a sign that something bad would happen. Shaking his head, Ryu suppressed the irritability in his heart, stopped, calmed down, and expanded the range of hidden perception again.
The Hidden Perception can reach its maximum range when the user is still and concentrating. While it is also able to perceive its surroundings while moving, its accuracy and range are greatly reduced. Therefore, every time Ryuwa walks a certain distance, he will stop and carefully perceive the situation around him.
Ryuyu's brows furrowed, and in her expanded perception, she could sense that there were eight unfamiliar chakras behind her, heading in their direction.
"Red, let's change directions." Ryu said to Red. It is not yet known whether the person behind you is friend or foe, but the probability of being an enemy should be greater, so at this time you should change the route and take insurance measures.
"Hmm!" Red has no objection, at this time, he should trust Ryuha's perceptual ability. The two began to change their routes, preparing to take a long detour back to the camp.
.....
"Stop!" With the order of the first man.
With a few brushes, the seven Mist Ninjas stopped around the leader and subconsciously guarded the surroundings. The order is forbidden, and it can be seen that this is an elite small unit in Wuyin Village.
I saw that the leader was dressed in a ninja vest uniform with a calm face, and his ears were hung with ornaments similar to spirit runes, only one left eye was exposed, and his right eye was covered by a black blindfold. If Ryuha were here, he would definitely recognize who this person was. He is the Misty Hidden Elite who accompanied Mizukage to the Five Shadows Conference during the Five Shadows Meeting, and served as the captain of the perception force in the Fourth Ninja World War, ——— 'Qing'.
"White eyes!" I saw Qing's one-handed seal, and the green tendons around his right eye exploded, and his vision went beyond his eyes and extended into the distance. Qing stood on the tree, looked at the direction where Ryu and Red had gone, and muttered, "I was actually discovered." ”
"Humph!" Qing sneered twice.
"But can you run away?" Qing waved his hand to signal his subordinates to follow, and then changed direction and chased after Ryuyu and them.
.......
"I'm in trouble!" Ryuha also said this sentence that Yamanaka Kaichi said not long ago. After she and Red had changed directions and continued walking, Ryuha stopped again to perceive. found that the group of people I found before actually followed, it seems that they are eyeing themselves. It's friend or foe, it's troublesome!
Ryuyu is now in a tangle, looking at the speed comparison between the two sides, it is estimated that she and Hong will be caught up by the opposite side before they reach the Konoha camp, indicating that blindly escaping will not work.
Ryuha's hard power at the moment should be above the middle ninja, but not the upper ninja, according to the strength of Konoha's ninja, it can be classified as a special ninja. With his own blood succession bonus, the ordinary three or two ordinary middle ninjas are not Ryuha's opponents, just like the two Iwain ninjas who were defeated in Caoyin Village last time. But in the face of ordinary ninjas, it seems more troublesome, but with the blood succession bonus, Ryuyu is confident that he can kill the other party at a small price in a one-on-one state.
The last time I killed an unknown number of Kusakuin and Iwakuin ninjas in Kusakuin Village, it can be said to be a miracle that it was completely caused by my own lifeless overdraft body fighting style and the enemy's ignorance of Bamboo Escape. But it can be said that it is very difficult to replicate this miracle again in a head-to-head matchup.
Analyzing the composition of the enemy's pursuers, at least 2 of the 8 people had to be ninja. In other words, the chances of staying and fighting hard are very small, and the red at the moment is a burden to Ryuyu.
Ryu is in a dilemma at the moment, if she is the only one, Ryu has the confidence to escape the perception of the other side by hiding and lurking in the surrounding trees. As long as there is no ninja with white eyes on the other side, Ryuha has the certainty of successfully escaping close to the tenth layer. Even if there is a blue with white eyes installed on the other side, Ryuyu is not too worried. In a state of seclusion, her white eyes must be used by powerful people to detect within a certain range. And now it hasn't been long since the foggy Qingcai has gained white eyes, so there is no need to worry too much. You can use Hidden Nest to lurk in the woods, and although your movement speed will be greatly reduced, as long as you can successfully escape.
But now there is also Red with him, and Ryu has the means to escape, but it doesn't mean that Red also has the means to escape. If the two of them run away separately, the fog ninjas who found that they had lost their goal will definitely put the target of their pursuit on Red's body, and when Red dies, they can't really see the blackened Asma appear.
What to do? Myself? Or is it red?
Ryu didn't know how to choose, after experiencing the departure of his father and others, Ryu cherished the fetters around him even more. Although she has always put revenge first in her heart, she also does not want to become a person dominated by hatred. Whether it is in the past life or in this life, Ryuyu is a person who values feelings.
At this time, Ryuyu thought of what he had said when he was talking about his dreams with his father: "Become a powerful ninja who can protect the people I care about and those who care about me." "But is Hong the person he cares about? Ryuha didn't know.
People will encounter many choices in this life, some are willing, some are involuntary, some are helpless, and some are unwilling to recall. This time, Ryuha's choice will affect her life.
After thinking about it, Ryuyu finally made up her mind.
"Red, we ......" Before Ryuyu finished speaking,
"They're just like you, they're a bunch of kind kids!" This sentence suddenly echoed in Ryuyu's heart, and with it, Kushina's gentle face.
"Is it kind?"
.....
"What's wrong? Ryuha, what happened? The red on the side felt that Ryuyu was a little abnormal at this moment.
Taking a deep breath and stabilizing his mind, Ryu Yu spoke again: "Red, we are being targeted, and it is estimated that there are also sentient ninjas on the other side, and it seems that we will not be able to escape safely." Now I'll give you the scroll, you run away quickly with the scroll, and I'll stay on the other side to buy time for you to escape. With that, Ryuha took out the scroll and threw it to Red.
Red was obviously a little confused, and after taking the scroll thrown by Ryuyu in a daze, he realized what was going on. "But Ryuha, you ......." Red didn't know what to say.
"It's okay, there aren't many people on the other side, I can handle it. Even if I can't beat it then, I can still escape with seclusion, so don't worry about me. If you're really worried about me, hurry back to the camp and look for reinforcements to meet me! Ryu didn't know why he had changed his mind, he and Hong had only known each other for a few months, and now he offered to help Red block the pursuers.
"But ....." Red wanted to say something.
"It's nothing, it's the best thing to do right now. Only then will it be possible for both of them to survive. Ryuyu's voice rose two points and became serious.
"If you're worried about me, like I just said, hurry back to the camp and look for help." Ryuha's words then softened by two points.
"Hmmm! I got it, I'll definitely be back. Looking at the firmness on Ryuha's face, Red assured her. Red knew that she couldn't convince Ryuha now, and that this was indeed the best way to keep both of them alive.
.....
Looking at Hong's distant back, Liuyu smiled bitterly: "Okay, it's time to get busy now." ”
Since it has been decided to buy time for Red, it will not be able to lurk through seclusion all the time, and it is inevitable to engage the pursuing Mist Hidden Ninjas.
Ryuyu shuttled through the trees by seclusion, moved closer to the misty pursuers, and began to set traps. The place where he just cast the separation of Concealment and Red will definitely be noticed by the perception ninja on the other side, and when the time comes, the Misty Hidden Pursuer will definitely be vigilant when approaching that area. Therefore, it is necessary to put the trap arrangement a little earlier, so that the trap does not work.
Ryu Yu was expecting the trap to kill the misty ninja on the opposite side in a wave, so that he would not have to worry about their tracking again, and he could use the mist's retreat to leave directly, but as the distance of the mist chaser got closer and closer, Ryu's heart began to feel uneasy, this feeling ......
