In mid-air, the two figures sometimes overlapped and sometimes separated, engaged in extremely dangerous melee combat.

The sharp blade sliced through the air at high speed, sending a piercing screech. The crashing sound of cold weapons sounded endlessly, without a pause.

The chakra contained in the weapon makes every blow they hit full of power. Everything around is like fragile porcelain, ruthlessly ravaged by the warring sides.

At a moment's notice, the big tree hugged by the three of them was cut off in an instant, and the incision was smooth and flat like a mirror.

Kunai flew out, and with a loud earth-shattering sound, the boulder that hit it was shattered by the burning detonation charm.

No one spoke, and the fierce battle was so fierce that any word was meaningless. In this battle, there can only be one winner.

The winner lives, and the loser dies.

The wind was blowing, the leaves were flying, the dust was filled, and the battle became more and more intense as time went on, and both sides fought to the death.

At this moment, only the figure of the opponent was left in the eyes of the two ninjas. Because of this, none of them noticed that an uninvited guest took the opportunity to sneak up on them.

On the edge of the battlefield, in an inconspicuous bush.

Lei Luo quietly crouched inside, watching the battle with cold eyes.

Not surprisingly, the two warring sides are a mist ninja and a Konoha ninja. Due to the speed of the two sides, he couldn't see the appearance of the two clearly, and he could only judge their forces by their clothes.

The fog endures, the two handles are clenched tightly in the palm, pointed, stabbed, wiped, and sharpened...... All kinds of moves are at your fingertips, and the attack range is not far from the enemy's vital point for a moment, revealing a very high short-weapon attainment. In addition, each kunai he threw out caused a huge explosion when it hit other objects, and it was evident that they were all tied to the detonation charm.

The Konoha ninja wielded a three-foot-long sword, and the dense sword light kept shining back and forth, left and right, forming a faint circle of light. While parrying and dodging, he is also looking for opportunities to counterattack.

After secretly observing for a moment, Lei Luo found a little way.

After fighting for so long, neither of the two ninjas has used ninjutsu or illusion, they should both be physical-type ninjas. Looking at their speed and destructive power, they are about the same as the strength of the upper ninja in the memory of their predecessors. And with his level of shinobi, I am afraid that he will not be able to intervene in a battle of this level.

Thinking of this, Lei Luo calmed down and quietly watched their battle. He also compares the scenes in front of him with the memories of his predecessors to deepen his understanding of the battle patterns between ninjas.

After looking at it for a while, Lei Luo frowned.

The situation on the field seems to be evenly matched, but if you look closely, you will find that the Konoha ninja has more defense and less attack, and is temporarily at a disadvantage. If the fighting continues to prolong, it will be in a worrying position.

After all, it is a pure body duel, and there are not so many technical means and unexpected factors. The competition is physical fitness and fighting skills, and strong is strong and weak is weak. Even if the gap is only a little bit, but with the passage of time and the loss of physical strength, this gap is likely to widen rapidly.

The situation is not good, something has to be done.

Lei Luo quickly glanced around, and several mutilated corpses suddenly came into view. Looking at the costumes, there are Konoha and foggy. There were about five or six corpses, scattered all over the battlefield, and the methods of death varied.

Apparently, there had just been a squad scramble here. Except for the two ninjas who were still fighting, the others died cleanly.

Lei Luo's eyes rolled and swept the things left everywhere, except for some broken ninja equipment, it seemed that there was nothing else.

I don't think there's much to use.

He rubbed his forehead, suddenly feeling a little at a loss.

Sneak attack? With his strength, the odds of success are slim to none.

The hard head iron went up to help?

The worst result is that the two of them still can't beat it.

The best result, temporarily repelled the other side.

But this whereabouts were also leaked, and then it was likely that the fog ninja would be chased and intercepted. Even if he has a strong teammate because of this, the chances of survival will probably only be more slim.

Sighing softly, and after weighing the pros and cons repeatedly, Lei Luo gave up his intention to intervene in the battle.

Dead Dao Friend is not dead poor Dao, even if he directly becomes a glorious Konoha Shinobi after crossing over, but he has not inherited the "Will of Fire" of his predecessor, and abandoning the so-called "companion" will not make him have any psychological burden.

So...... This Konoha ninja who has never met before, ask for more blessings.

Just as he was about to leave quietly as he had come, a faint murmur crossed his ears.

"Team, Captain......"

Turning his head sharply, Lei Luo looked in the direction where the voice came from, but unexpectedly, he happened to meet a pair of round angry eyes.

"Be careful, there's another ...... Enemy! ”

Ten meters away from Lei Luo, under a large collapsed tree.

A misty shinobi lay on the ground in embarrassment, half of the tree trunk pressing down on his thigh, so that he could not move.

Lei Luo's pupils shrank, he had noticed this guy before, and thought it was a dead man, so he didn't pay attention to it.

Don't blame him for being careless, it's really that the misery of this fog ninja makes it hard for people to think that he is still alive. Let's not talk about the big pool of blood under the other party's body, let's talk about the other party's two arms: one disappears, and the other folds out at a 90-degree angle. In addition, the back of this fog ninja has obvious traces of being blown up by the detonation charm, which is charred and black, and there is a faint smell of mush.

Lei Luo thought to himself that even if he himself was injured to this extent, it would be difficult for him to survive. Even if he was lucky enough not to die, the pain and blood loss would make him faint quickly, so he didn't take this suspected corpse to heart.

And this guy had been lying quietly on his stomach before, obviously not showing the slightest abnormality.

What is this now? Corpse fraud? Back to light?

The other party's voice was very weak, like a mosquito.

But for the few ninjas who were still alive, it was like a thunderbolt.

"Bang!" "Whew!"

Two muffled sounds came in no particular order, and after another fierce fight, the two people in the fierce battle retreated in unison.

The atmosphere was quiet for a while.

Realizing that he had been exposed, he quickly analyzed the probability of a successful escape in his mind, and after reluctantly no longer hiding, he calmly walked out of the bushes.

It was only now that he could see the two of them clearly.

The one wearing the Konoha forehead guard is a young man with a sickly face. He was standing panting in the treetops with his left hand on his chest and a knife in his right hand. Even after the battle was temporarily suspended, he still stared at his opponent. Only the corner of his eye glanced at Lei Luo from time to time, proving that he had noticed Lei Luo's existence.

And the misty shinobi was a middle-aged man with a gloomy face, and a scar stretched from the corner of his eye to his chin. Blood slowly flowed out of the left arm he was holding, and it was obvious that Scarface suffered a big loss from the fight just now.

Noticing the different states between the two, Lei Luo's eyes flashed, and he secretly remembered this detail in his heart.

Obviously, Scarface's strength is stronger, why is the injury after the fight just now more serious than that of Konoha Ninja?

Are you in a hurry to get out? Or is there something that draws his attention more than an opponent who fights to the death? Is it the misty shinobi who just spoke?

Interesting.

"Konoha reinforcements?" Scarface's face is not very good-looking, and while guarding the two enemies in front of him, he is also secretly paying attention to the mist shinobi who just reminded him.

When he saw that his companion who had fallen under the tree still had a breath of relief, he was looking at himself with concerned eyes, and Scarface breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately after, he grinned deliberately and smiled at Lei Luo. "There is only one person, are you here to die?"

This smile, combined with the scar on his face, looks completely hideous and ill-intentioned.

"Judging by the way you look, you must have been the lucky one who escaped your life, right? The wound...... Did you come across the Loquat Ten Collections? ”

"How? Doesn't it feel good? ”

Scarface taunted Lei Luo unscrupulously, and at the same time, he was secretly tensing his nerves, guarding against Lei Luo's sudden outburst.

The wound inflicted by the decapitation broadknife is very iconic, and Scarface recognizes it at a glance. This new Konoha ninja was able to escape with his life when he was injured by Loquat Shizo, and his strength may not be simple. I just hid, I'm afraid I want to find an opportunity to give myself a fatal blow.

Thinking of this, Scarface felt even more jealous of Lei Luo in his heart. Even though Lei Luo looked badly injured, he still didn't dare to be careless.

Lei Luo understands that the reason why Scarface has this judgment should be because of the traces left on his clothes. In essence, what the other party said was right, and he didn't bother to hide anything.

He obviously cares more about the other party's purpose of mocking him than Scarface's featureless trash talk.

Is this trying to provoke yourself? And then lure yourself away?

The corners of his mouth hooked up a playful smile, and Lei Luo looked at the misty shinobi who told him to break his whereabouts. "Your teammate looks like he's going to die, don't you care?"

Scarface's heart tightened, but on the surface, he pretended to be casual and asked, "What does his life or death have to do with me?" On the contrary, are you not worried about your own life at all? ”

"With your injuries, even if this guy is there." Scarface squinted at the sickly face standing aside, and sneered, "You will definitely not be able to escape the encirclement of our fog ninja, so surrender, so that you can at least save your life." ”

Hearing this, the sickly face that had been silent couldn't help but sneer, but still didn't say anything. The battle just now had consumed too much physical strength, and he had to concentrate on recovering during this precious time.

As for Lei Luo's choice, he didn't care.

Will the Kiristin let go of the Konoha captives he caught? Are you kidding? Death is probably the best of all endings.

No one with a brain would choose to surrender, even if he didn't know Lei Luo, but with the fact that he was also a member of the Konoha family, he believed that this young companion would not be naïve enough to believe what the enemy said.

How will Lei Luo choose?

There seemed to be no need to answer this question, as it was Scarface's stalling nonsense, and Relo knew it well.

Since the enemy is unable to provoke and delay time, it means that the other party does not want to fight. In other words, if you don't want to fight immediately, it's clear that the other side is taking care of something.

The guess in his heart was vaguely confirmed, and in this way, Lei Luo naturally would not fulfill the other party's wishes, and he would speed up.

Lei Luo glanced at Scarface's facial expression again, and unexpectedly didn't see any flaws. Well, very professional.

Abandoning the temptation of words, Lei Luo maintained a posture facing Scarface, and unhurriedly moved to the position of the seriously injured Mist Shinobi.

This step seems to have successfully stepped on Scarface's nerves.

I saw that the other party's palm holding Kunai was slightly clenched, and his hideous face was also shining with a little fierce light, and his upper body leaned forward and his left leg moved back slightly, vaguely assuming a posture ready to sprint.

Scarface's eyes instantly became firm and fierce, and Lei Luo realized that this guy might be desperate.

Without thinking about it anymore, Lei Luo yelled: "Stop him! ”

Before the words fell, he quickly turned Chakra and transported it to his feet, turned around, raised his legs, ran, all in one go,

Seeing Lei Luo's movements, Scarface didn't hesitate at all, kicked the tree trunk hard, and swooped down towards Lei Luo from a high altitude.

On the side, the sick face, who had been paying attention to the changes in the situation all the time, quickly made a judgment, and rose horizontally, chasing after Scarface. A little cold flickered, as if it was slowly and quickly approaching the back of Scarface's heart.

"Threatening hostages?"

At the same time as the attack, the sick face thought so. He guessed Lei Luo's idea, and although it might not be successful, it was worth trying.

At this moment, a tense atmosphere filled the three, and the air seemed to freeze.

Lei Luo was only ten meters away from his target, and with his current body, he was confident that he would arrive in two seconds.

The straight-line distance between Scarface and Lei Luo is not short, about twenty or thirty meters. But with the help of gravity and his super speed, he was sure to reach Lei Luo's side in a second. This is still because he is afraid of Lei Luo's strength, and he is afraid that the boat will capsize in the gutter, otherwise he will rush faster.

Little by little, the tip of the sickly face was close to the vital point of Scarface, and his sober mind and rich experience told him that if this tricky enemy still maintained this movement, then 0.5 seconds later would be the opponent's death.

At this moment, the world seems to come to a standstill, and everyone moves frame by frame like actors in a movie who are stuck in slow motion.

Closer, closer......

Lei Luo's left hand slowly grabbed at the fallen Mist Shinobi, and he clearly saw the other party's bloodstained face. This face is very young, and it is quite handsome when you look closer, but it is a pity that a pair of eyes full of hatred hang on it, which does not look harmonious.

It's just that when these eyes were drawn behind him, a complex color flashed.

There is guilt, worry, and admiration.

What's behind?

Lei Luo didn't want to think about it, he just wanted to catch the bastard in front of him as soon as possible, and then turn his head and use this bastard to threaten Scarface and buy a chance for himself. He had already seen that this young mist shinobi was important to Scarface, and catching him was tantamount to taking the initiative.

A cold breeze blew through his hair, goosebumps crawled all over his neck, and the shadow of death instantly filled Lei Luo's heart, making him shudder.

The multiplied mental power allowed Lei Luo to clearly experience all kinds of subtle feelings, but at this moment, he was not hesitant to suffer a painful torture. He knew that Scarface was behind him, most likely with the aim of piercing his neck, but he didn't have time to turn back.

Want to let go? Do you want to get out of the way?

Gritting his teeth and leaving behind his unrealistic thoughts, a look of madness flashed in Lei Luo's eyes. Now, the only thing he hoped for was that the Konoha ninja would give some strength.

Scar's face was expressionless as he watched as Lei Luo kept approaching the front, fine beads of sweat crossed his cheeks at some point, and the kunai in his hand was trembling slightly.

The tremendous pressure enveloped his heart from all sides, almost suffocating him. What brought him pressure was not only the fact that the mist ninja, who was Lei Luo's target, was already in danger.

There was also a blade in his back that had slowly touched his body. If he insisted on stabbing out the kunai, he would die-that's what his intuition told him.

The sickly face looked coldly at the advancing enemy in front of him, the long knife was firmly held in his hand, with the killing intent of the cold forest to cut through the air, cut through the fluttering fallen leaves, cut through the opponent's armor, and finally, the tip of the knife touched the skin, bringing a touch of bright red blood.

The tricky and crazy enemy was finally coming to an end - excitement, excitement surging through his heart. But thinking that Lei Luo, who was the target of the other party, was likely to die because of this. Emotions such as grief and sorrow also arise. Everything is condensed here, and all that remains is naked killing intent.

In the general period of solidification, the beliefs of several people in the field are intertwined, and the tide of thought is surging, which is not only a competition of strength, but also a duel of wills.

Die together, or avoid the edge for a while?

This split-second choice will determine the life and death of Lei Luo and Scarface.
