Chapter 148: A Humble Pawn
sea area
When a hundred-meter-long building boat broke through the waves and approached the shore, a large number of fog ninjas stepped off the boat.
"Dry persimmon ghost is really sama, we have arrived."
"Well, speed up and let the ship return, we haven't been discovered for the time being, then, let's pass through this area as soon as possible, try not to be discovered by the ninjas of Konoha , otherwise, we will have a lot of trouble before we arrive at Konoha Village."
"Yes."
Entering the dense forest, soon, there were only fifty people left among the hundreds of fog ninjas who followed the dried persimmon ghost Zhen, and the remaining half of the more than half of the manpower were sent out, a team of three, sneaking into the surrounding dense forest, in order to ensure that the team's whereabouts were not detected.
In a valley less than ten miles away, the medical team had already collected the herbs in advance.
"Teacher Lin, it's time to go back to the village."
"D-class mission, after completion, there are eight thousand taels."
"It's a pity, we're not good at fighting, we can't take on escort missions, otherwise ......"
"It's okay, Ann, as medical ninjas, the subsidy in the village is much higher than that of ordinary ninjas."
"But in this case, I am still unwilling."
"What are you talking about, if you don't leave, you won't be able to stay in the town in front of you before dark." Lynn smiled and glanced back at the few people who were still talking.
"Yes." The three of them responded.
Shortly after they left the valley, a figure descended.
"There are no footprints, but there are obvious traces of herbs being picked here, are they the healers who collected the herbs?" The Kiri ninja muttered to himself, and was about to lift his feet to leave, but when he inadvertently looked sideways, he found a footprint in a soft place.
"Clogs?"
Soon he landed on the hillside not far away, and immediately after he put two fingers in his mouth, he whistled.
The three figures of "Boom" fell in front of him one after another.
"Did you find anything unusual?"
"In the valley ahead, just now, I found a fresh footprint, which should be the person who came to collect herbs."
"Can't get far? So, let's catch up. ”
"Yes."
Soon, the four-person team saw a group of people talking and laughing in the dense forest in the distance more than ten miles away.
"Ninja Forehead Protector...... Is it a ninja from Konoha? ”
"It's not good, I encountered Konoha ninjas so quickly."
"Do you want to do it?"
"Notify Captain Oni immediately."
"Yes."
Soon the dry persimmon ghost really came here with a large group of people, and the fog ninja in front was still watching, but the speed of the group of four people walking was not slow, and in the blink of an eye, it was already a few miles away.
"Konoha medical class? We can't easily let go of any suspicious target, not to mention, the other party is a ninja, so we can't let them go. ”
"Up, solve them all, you can't let one go."
"Yes."
When a large number of fog ninjas detoured from both sides, Nohara Lin's eyes suddenly became a little more solemn in the forest, and then she said in a low voice: "Speed up, take out the detonator and smoke bomb, and prepare to retreat, it seems that we are being targeted." ”
"No, Teacher Lin, this is the territory of the Fire Country, even if it is the Water Country that is adjacent to us, isn't it already defeated and surrendered?"
"Ann, stop smiling, let's go."
"Yes."
When the group of four people sped up, the misty shinobi who was chasing behind him obviously knew that the whereabouts of the others were exposed.
"Let's do it."
"Don't worry, that girl, it seems to be a ......" The dry persimmon ghost really frowned slightly, and suddenly recalled the explanation of the three generations of Mizukage before he was sacrificed, "That's right, she is the three-tailed human pillar force that the previous three generations of Mizukage-sama were looking for, and she is an important part of the sneak attack on Konoha plan." ”
"I didn't expect to meet her here today, but it's a pity that the three tails are already dead, and if you want to wait for it to be reborn, you have to wait for a long time, so let's kill her."
"Up"
"Yes."
When more than a dozen mist ninjas exposed their bodies at the same time and appeared at the end of the four-person team, Nohara Rin's face changed, "Quick, do it." ”
"Xiu Xiu Xiu" more than a dozen shuriken in a row came out of the hands of several people, and then, Nohara Rin saw the mist shinobi who easily dodged these attacks.
"It's not good, these guys, all of them are middle ninjas, once they catch up, then they will really die."
"Explosion" At Nohara Rin's signal, more than a dozen detonation charms attached to Kunai's body were successfully detonated by them.
The firelight enveloped the area behind him, and the chasing figure did not catch up again in a short time.
"Did it work?" The faces of the lower ninja in the team were a little rosy, which was the joy of excitement.
"No, they deliberately followed behind us, slowing down, these guys, they want to surround us, if I'm not mistaken, what I was alert to before, that is, the slight movement of the enemy shinobi when they detoured from both sides."
"But Teacher Lin, who are they who dare to hunt us down in the territory of our Fire Country."
Nohara Rin's face was a little ugly, "It's Kiri Shinobi, I've fought with them before." ”
"What, it's Mist Shinobi."
"Teacher Lin, what should we do, it seems that there are a lot of people on the other side."
"There are more than thirty people on both sides, and we are very slow, so someone must stay and delay, and the rest of us will try to disperse and flee before we have a chance to report the situation here to the village."
After speaking, Nohara Lin glanced at the three of them while running, "I'll stay, you three, immediately follow the route you took when you came out before, leave from the three-way intersection, only by escaping back to the village, can you avenge me." ”
"But."
"It's nothing, the three of you are still just shinobi, I'm a middle ninja, and I'm the captain of the medical class, so you have to listen to me."
"But ......"
"It's okay, I'm also a ninja who has completed S-class missions, if you can get to the town faster, you can find our Konoha ninja, and come to the rescue when the time comes, maybe, I still have a chance to survive, if you go together, it will definitely die."
Under the persuasion of Nohara Rin, the three shinobi left quickly, scattered and fled at the three-way intersection, and after a while, the fog ninja surrounded by both sides had already shrunk the encirclement, and Nohara Lin found a narrow terrain to hide, she secretly looked at the fog ninja who had taken the initiative to expose her body, inch by inch, and searched carefully, her face was pale.
"It seems that there is really no way to escape." She took out the last detonation charm from her bosom, and she knew to herself what the teachers had made her wait for others to learn a suicidal ninjutsu when they grew up.
A few hundred meters away in the dense forest, a figure faltered, but there was a smile on his face.
"It's great to finally be able to meet Rin and Kakashi."
"Don't be too happy, maybe it will be very bad when the situation comes."
"What do you mean? Did you notice something? ”
"Well, the girl you like is not in a very good situation right now."
"What?" When he heard this, his face was covered with gauze and only one eye was exposed, he immediately increased his speed, and soon, he heard the sound of battle in front of him.
When he reached the edge of a small hill, he saw a scene in which his pupils dilated and his eyes suddenly turned extremely red.
"No......" At this moment, almost all his body lost his strength, and on the other side, the shadow surrounded by the fog ninja actually died in the hands of a mist ninja.
"How is that possible...... Lynn, how could it be ......"
His pupils swirled suddenly, from one magatama at the beginning, to three magatamas, and in the next second, he raised his head to the sky and let out a roar, "You guys, you all deserve to die." ”
When he leaped over the hill with a sharp step, the misty ninja below noticed his arrival, and in the next second, the three magatama in his eyes suddenly opened, merging into one, and together condensed a pattern.
"Up, kill him." Even though he had lost three targets, the Kazuki decided to kill the bystander who suddenly appeared.
"Huh", the person who came shook his hand was countless rattan shots, and more than a dozen fog ninjas who rushed towards him were pierced through their bodies on the spot.
Under the great change in the face of the dry persimmon ghost, he suddenly sealed his hands, "Water Escape, Waterfall Technique", when the violent water waves gushed out, that figure had already rushed to his front, he reached out to grab the ninja knife behind him, but his eyes met the other party's pupils.
"It's ...... Writing Wheel Eyes? His pupils widened suddenly, but in the next second, an arm had pierced his chest and directly crushed his heart.
"Death", the bandages wrapped around his face and body were dyed red with blood by the people who came, and more than a hundred mist ninja elites, none of them escaped, and all died here.
He knelt on the ground, only to feel that his inner world had collapsed, he held the little face of the girl in front of him with both hands, how much he hoped that she would wake up again and be able to open her mouth to encourage herself, but ......
"Why, Lynn ......"
At this time, a figure suddenly appeared in the land beside him, "It's time to go, there is a very powerful chakra coming from a distance, and the people who come seem to be the two brothers of the Qimu family." ”
"Just in time, I was about to ask him where he was when Lin was attacked just now, why, he couldn't stay by Lynn's side to protect her all the time."
"It's time to go, don't get carried away."
After speaking, the figure suddenly appeared behind him, and when his heart was extremely sad and angry, and Chakra was consumed too quickly, he was unable to block this hand knife, and was directly put down on the spot.
When the footsteps in the distance came, the two figures had already disappeared smoothly in place.
