Deep in the forest, the water trickles.

It is a low-lying terrain with a build-up of water that eventually forms a small lake on the ground. The trees around the lake are old, some from ancient times.

The roots of the ancient trees are thick and dense, and some even penetrate the soil and protrude into the lake.

Perhaps for ordinary people, this place is dark and damp, and it is unbearable. But for Kiri Shinobi, it's a place full of security.

Misty Shinobi is proficient in water escape. Where there is plenty of water vapor, the power of the Water Escape Ninjutsu can be greatly increased. What's more, the mist ninja, who is proficient in water escape, is able to fuse his breath with water, making it difficult for people to notice.

The watermelon mountain puffer ghost stood on the surface of the water, carrying behind his back the most bizarre shark muscle broadsword of the seven ninja knives.

The figure of the dried persimmon ghost shark approached quickly. He tapped his toes twice on the surface of the lake, and crossed a long distance, and in just an instant, he came from the shore of the lake to the watermelon mountain puffer ghost in the center of the lake.

"How's the investigation going?"

"I've picked up an important piece of information about Konoha Village! The sister-in-law of the Nara family, Nara Shikamaru, who has just been recovered, colludes with Konoha's renegade Orochimaru. I don't know what their purpose is, but for us, it should be possible to take advantage of it. ”

"Nara Shikamaru?" The watermelon mountain puffer fish ghost looked at the dried persimmon ghost shark with some suspicion, "If I'm not mistaken, Nara Shikamaru hasn't even shinobi!" What qualifications does he have to be able to collude with Orochimaru? ”

"It's true, I've fought Orochimaru. And Nara Shikamaru, his body is very strange, and it is speculated that his strength has at least reached the level of upper ninja. ”

"So, did you fight Orochimaru and escape unharmed?"

The face of the watermelon mountain puffer fish ghost became very gloomy for a moment, and the long hair behind him stretched out and hardened, shooting towards the dried persimmon ghost shark that was close at hand like a thousand books.

Being able to control one's killing intent and not let the opponent detect it is the most basic operation of a Shangnin. The watermelon mountain puffer fish ghost attacked in vain, but the reaction ability of the dried persimmon ghost shark was even faster than him.

At the last moment, the dried persimmon ghost shark didn't have time to seal, so it could only retreat quickly. It's just that the watermelon mountain puffer fish is expensive, but it doesn't mean to let the dried persimmon ghost shark get out.

He pulled out the shark muscles on his body, and his body shape was almost in sync with the needle. The dried persimmon ghost shark had successfully dodged the needle Qianben and was about to dive underwater, but the watermelon mountain puffer fish ghost did not give an inch.

With the swing of the big knife, the barbs on the shark's muscles cut through the bandage, devouring the flesh and blood of the dried persimmon ghost shark while making a cut on his body.

The watermelon mountain puffer fish ghost did not stop there, and used a strong slashing slash, constantly beating the dried persimmon ghost shark with the shark muscles, absorbing the chakra on his body.

The dried persimmon ghost shark was seriously injured under the double blow of the shark muscle inside and outside, but it barely supported itself and got out of the attack range of the watermelon mountain puffer fish. He was half-collapsed on the water, holding himself on to his hands. The blood dripping from the corners of his mouth mixed into the water and quickly disappeared.

"I didn't leak the information, why did you ......."

The watermelon mountain puffer ghost was a little surprised, although he knew that his subordinates were strong, but he was able to dodge the nirvana that he had carefully prepared?

"I don't think you understand what a ninja is!"

"Be loyal to the village and give everything for the village, this is the way of a ninja!"

The dried persimmon ghost shark was seriously injured, and his voice sounded a little weak.

"That's what I used to think. But in that battle, I changed that mind completely. Looking at the dried persimmon ghost shark in front of him, the watermelon mountain puffer fish ghost seemed to see his former self, "In that battle, our ninja sword seven lost four people at once. And the opponent is just a shinobi who can only use physical arts. Since then, I have understood that there is nothing in this world more ethereal than a ninja. ”

Looking at the dried persimmon ghost shark that was getting weaker and weaker, the watermelon mountain puffer fish ghost temporarily put aside his murderous intent and poured out the resentment in his heart over the years.

"Ninjas are just tools, and the village doesn't care if a tool lives or dies, only whether the tool completes the task. When we forced our way back to the village, what was the expression on the faces of those bastards after they heard that the famous Shinobi Seven had been killed by a shinobi and three were seriously injured? Ha, you'll never feel how we felt. ”

The watermelon mountain puffer fish ghost looked at the dried persimmon ghost shark in front of him, and his face was very contemptuous.

"Do you want to know why I killed you? Because someone paid for your life! And you're just a ninja in the shadows, and if you're dead, you're dead! ”

The watermelon mountain puffer fish ghost raised the shark muscle in his hand and was about to swing down.

The temperament of the dried persimmon ghost shark, which was getting weaker and weaker just now, suddenly changed, and slapped it towards the watermelon mountain puffer fish ghost with one palm. Just when his huge body was unstable on its feet, the dried persimmon ghost shark got up and snatched the shark muscle from the hand of the watermelon mountain puffer fish ghost, and then a blow pierced his body.

"Why are you ........!"

A sly smile appeared at the corner of the dried persimmon ghost shark's mouth, and he said, "The world of ninjas is all about deceit, don't you still understand?" What I just said and showed weakness was just to make you let your guard down. I didn't expect you to be really stupidly fooled! ”

Solved the watermelon mountain puffer fish ghost and won the shark muscle, but the dried persimmon ghost shark standing on the water surface was surprisingly lonely.

His eyes were a little gloomy, looking at his figure on the lake and the color of blood, thinking about the words of the watermelon mountain puffer fish ghost just now.

"Are ninjas really nothing?" The dried persimmon ghost shark didn't think about it for long, but a pair of lonely eyes became sharp again. "Who!"

The shadow on the shore flows, and Ah Fei emerges from it. He looked at the dried persimmon ghost shark, and did not make any further movements, but instead sealed his hands and channeled the projection of Shikamaru.

"It's worthy of a dried persimmon ghost shark! actually killed the famous watermelon mountain puffer fish ghost! ”

"Didn't kill me, you don't seem to mind at all."

Although the projection in front of him was blurry, the dried persimmon oni shark could easily hear Shikamaru's voice. Compared with the watermelon mountain puffer ghost, he is more vigilant when facing Shikamaru.

"The Watermelon Mountain Puffer Ghost is already a tool that has lost its soul, how can it kill you?" Shikamaru walked forward step by step, "Stuck in my heart because of a failure, lost in the desire for money, the watermelon mountain puffer ghost is no longer the watermelon mountain puffer ghost of the year!" ”

"What do you want to say?"

"With such a boring life, do you want to repeat his path?" Shikamaru opened his palm, and on the palm of his hand was a ring engraved with Nan, "How about becoming my tool?" ”

"Interesting! You want me to be your tool, and what do you want to do? ”

"I'm just trying to steal the power of the Five Great Powers!"

"Do you want to be the enemy of all the ninjas in this world?"

The corners of the dried persimmon ghost shark's mouth are slightly pulled. At this time, a large number of misty ninja quickly approached and surrounded the place, looking at the dried persimmon ghost shark holding the shark muscle and the blood of the pond, and questioned loudly.

"What did you do?"

"If you're not dead, come to Konoha and find me!"

Shikamaru threw the ring in his hand at the dried persimmon oni shark, and he caught it. Then, Shikamaru's projection vanished.
