Chapter 25: The Flames
The black flames burned silently, bringing great pain.
"What is this?!"
As if jumping out of nothingness, there was no sign except for the rotation of the big windmill in the right eye of the Itachi.
Different from the burning sensation of ordinary flames, the maggots of the tarsal bones climbed up the bodies of Obito and the oni shark, Obito's face changed greatly, and the oni shark directly let out a miserable scream.
The pain distorted their faces as hot black as a splash of hot oil on their bare skin, everything they touched turned to ashes, the dancing black flames laughed, and the demon grinned and devoured life little by little.
Yu Xiaobai shuddered when he saw the tragic situation of Obito and the ghost shark.
"Let's go, senior!"
The weasel's shout made Yu Xiaobai react with a spirit, this is the last chance to escape!
Amaterasu is the strongest fire escape ninjutsu, but it may not be able to beat two opponents in seconds.
glanced at the ferret, who was in a very bad state at this time, his body trembled as if he had suffered some side effects, and there was a trace of blood flowing down his right eye.
Without hesitation, Yu Xiaobai stirred up the last bit of chakra and rushed directly in the direction of the woods.
Itachi gritted his teeth, and instead of looking at Obito and Oni Shark, who were still struggling with the unquenchable fire Amaterasu behind him, he also jumped on a tree trunk, but he didn't run a few times, and one of them stumbled and almost fell.
Yu Xiaobai saw this scene, pursed his lips and slowed down, and when the weasel came behind him, he didn't care whether he agreed or not, he directly pulled the other party's body and began to run away without looking back.
Itachi felt a force sent from ahead, and wanted to say something, but in the end he held back and rushed forward together.
A hundred meters behind, Obito and Ghost Shark could only watch Yu Xiaobai and Itachi leave. The ghost shark smashed a water escape on himself with red eyes, but the black flames were unharmed, continuing to extinguish his trembling nerves.
"Why can't the water be extinguished!" The ghost shark was shocked.
The writing wheel in the cave of the earth mask stared at the strange black flame, his insight was not shallow, and he said quickly: "This is the fire of Amaterasu, and it will not be extinguished if it is not burned and the attached thing is not burned!" ”
The ghost shark's eyes widened when he heard Obito's words, and the expression on the shark's face was really anxious.
For most people, Amaterasu is a barely solvable technique once it is cast, and they can only wait for death in the burning pain, but there are also people who can not sit still, and after the shock, Obito endured the severe pain in a cold sweat, and the three-hooked jade in his right eye began to spin.
Unable to take care of himself under the killing move, the ghost shark took a deep breath, looked at the increasingly vigorous black flames, and pulled out the bandage knife on his back with his right hand.
……
"Those two shouldn't be chasing after them."
Yu Xiaobai took the ferret, the two tried their best to run away without stopping, and after a while, they came out of the woods, but they did not stop, but continued to run to the northeast, in a bad physical state, the two had to stop halfway, swallowed a few soldiers and pills and drank some water, almost no rest, they rushed to the straight direction again, stopped all the way and ran all the way, and when it was dark, they were relieved to be paralyzed in a small cave.
"I won't chase it, Amaterasu's flame won't be extinguished, those two Xiao should be dead." Itachi leaned against the uneven rocky mountain and gasped. Some of the sharp water chestnuts were very uncomfortable, but he was already extremely tired and rushed for an afternoon, which was far more than he had ever done before, and the fatigue that came from sitting down made him not want to move anymore.
"Not necessarily." Yu Xiaobai is also very tired, if he can, he definitely wants to lie down, but he knows that he is too optimistic about the perverted ability inside, "That shark face is not sure, the man wearing the mask is very sure that he will not be burned to death by Amaterasu." ”
There is a precedent for this in the original book.
Itachi was obviously not very convinced, he couldn't think of any way to survive from the flames that could not be extinguished and could not be driven, and the same was true for an afternoon of rushing, he originally intended to flee for fear that the opponent would fight back hysterically, but he didn't expect to run for his life so much, but Yu Xiaobai insisted very resolutely, so he had to follow.
However, he had doubts in his heart, but he didn't want to speak out and oppose it immediately, Yu Xiaobai's performance in all aspects of this trip to Yunin Village had been recognized by him.
Yu Xiaobai sat for a while, and after recovering a little strength, he got up and took out the simple map from his bag, frowning and recalling the route during the day.
"We're ...... now It's probably already on the southwestern border of the country of grass. ”
"Have you traveled so much?" Itachi smiled bitterly when he heard the news.
Yu Xiaobai nodded helplessly, "It's good to survive." ”
After another half an hour, after the two of them calmed down, Yu Xiaobai clapped his hands and stood up, the sky outside was darker, the cave they were in was just an inconspicuous place at the foot of a few big mountains, surrounded by a natural environment without human population, in autumn, the night would be a little cold, he slowly walked to the entrance of the cave, and said, "It's late at night, I'll go get some fire." ”
Itachi's eyes moved, and he stood up silently, "I'll go, senior." ”
Yu Xiaobai felt a little troubled and looked at the weasel who didn't want to sit and do something, sometimes this kind of arrogant refusal to admit defeat didn't know whether it was good or bad.
"Then you go get some food and water, you've eaten everything you brought before." Yu Xiaobai gave Itachi another task, which he originally wanted to do by the way when he was looking for a few branches.
Itachi nodded, and the two of them went out for a quarter of an hour and came back immediately.
Soon, when the dim light of the moonlight moved away from the entrance of the cave, a little orange flame was lit.
There was a lot of consideration when they settled down, so at night Yu Xiaobai and they didn't have to bear the cold blowing of the tuyere, the temperature in the cave gradually increased, and Yu Xiaobai and Itachi, who had replenished some energy, finally relaxed their stiff bodies.
The small space was simply cleaned, Yu Xiaobai and Itachi sat across the fire, chatting casually, with the twinkling stars outside and a wolf howl, the atmosphere would eventually become quiet.
"Senior, about the change of the wheel eye that I wrote at that time......
Itachi thought about it for a long time, and decided to explain the matter of the kaleidoscope writing wheel to Yu Xiaobai, after all, he could be said to be hiding his strength when he was surrounded by Yunin before, and the situation was also critical at that time, which could be said to be irresponsible for his companions.
"Well, I know, Kaleidoscope Writing Wheel Eye." Yu Xiaobai said unexpectedly, holding a branch in his right hand and fiddling with the fire, "I still have this bit of knowledge." ”
"That's ...... Yes. Itachi looked down at the warm flame in front of him, which was harmless orange instead of Amaterasu's cursed black, "That'......"
Itachi wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Yu Xiaobai raising his hand, "Everyone has their own secrets, it's okay." ”
"......" Itachi Uchiha fell silent.
"That's right." Yu Xiaobai remembered something and said, and the weasel immediately raised his head.
"I heard that the kaleidoscope has great side effects, and it looks like you are like that during the day, so you should use it with caution in the future." After Yu Xiaobai finished speaking, he felt that he was a little redundant, and in the original book, Weasel had already cherished his pupil power very much, "Tsk, anyway, young man, grasp what is there." ”
"Hey, why are you looking at me like that?"
"Nothing."
Itachi stroked his forehead, "Senior, you actually said such a trivial matter, it's really ......"
Wow, it's a trivial matter to become blind when you're blind!
Of course, Yu Xiaobai will not complain.
"You're not too impressed, young man, are you?" Yu Xiaobai patted Weasel on the shoulder very coquettishly.
Itachi's face returned to a cold expression, "No, senior, go to sleep." ”
"Oh, then who's keeping vigil?" Yu Xiaobai said casually.
This question is critical.
"......" The two of them suddenly stared at each other.
"Ahem, come on, I'll teach you a game called guessing boxing today." Yu Xiaobai took the lead in breaking the deadlock.
There wasn't much rain in the country of grass, and the cloudless night sky and moonlight were boundless, and it was a different scene soon after sweeping southwest along the land. On the other side of the woods where Yu Xiaobai and Xiao fought in the afternoon, two people dragging tattered red cloud robes on a black background were on their way back to Yunin Village.
"Don't you really have to chase them, they're in a bad state." The ghost shark unwillingly glanced behind him, only the depth of the night.
"No need." Obito said lightly, he touched the skin that was still faintly burning, and there was also a cut in the robe behind him, and the terrifying black and unyielding thunder flashed back to his brain involuntarily.
"Those two people have a fire hidden in their hearts. Someday, they will come. ”
