Chapter 16: Uchiha Itachi
In the morning, before the fog had cleared, I rubbed my eyes, walked out, spit out the water in my mouth, and brushed my teeth. But I saw a scene, so early, Shimaba had already started training, and today was a week when Boruto came here.
After this period of training, Boruto's reaction speed has improved a lot compared to before, and what Boruto lacks now is actual combat experience. Now, Boruto has to use swordsmanship as much as possible, which has improved, and as for mastering Mang's power, it will take a long time.
After breakfast, everyone gathered together, and the fog had already cleared a little, and Na Lang stood at the front, looking at the five people in front of him. Three of them are members of the Steel Team, and in addition to Kondo, there is also a man and a woman, and one of the men is Shimaba's teacher, the man with braids, whose name is Kai no Spear.
The other woman, wearing a black bodysuit, outlines a charming figure, slightly dark skin, and is a short-haired woman. Her name is Kawaren, and the other two are Boruto and Shimaba, and this is the first time they have gone on a mission.
"It's almost time for you to go, and the matter is basically clear, come back early," Na Lang instructed.
"Isn't it exciting, little ghost?" Kondo chewed on the grass roots and looked at Boruto who was standing next to him.
"Hmm," Boruto said, his face full of excitement.
And Shimaha on the side, compared to excitement, with more of a release of depression and anger, the five left by boat. This time, the place they are going to is the country of the vortex, and they get information that there is a secret factory there that seems to be developing something.
Team Steel's mission is to fight against the parasites, and this time, they won't miss this opportunity either, and maybe even more useful information.
The ship gradually sailed away and disappeared from view, "Shimaba, in a little while, we'll be fighting together, hehe," Boruto said with a playful smile at Shimaba.
However, Shimaba really didn't even turn his head, just looked at the sea in front of him faintly, which made Boruto a little embarrassed. Next to him, Kondo squeezed Boruto with his arm, with a wicked smile on his face: "Boruto, it seems that your skills in chatting with girls are not good." ”
"You can do it," Boruto shouted.
"No, I'm just going to talk about it, don't worry too much," Kondo twisted his head to the other side and spoke to Helian, "Helian, let's talk, that little ghost is really annoying." ”
Ha Lian only covered her mouth and smiled, Bo angrily crossed her hands to her chest, and the boat continued to sail south, towards the country of the Vortex, the hometown of the Uzumaki clan.
When we finally landed, the fog had all cleared, the sun had risen high, the temperature had risen further, and the first foot had fallen on the land. Five people, each with two knives, walked towards their destination, and the woods were very thick.
But there was no figure in sight, and the frightened bird swept up, "This is it," Kondo walked in front, no one standing on the branch, looking at the factory that was already clearly visible not far away.
The factory was covered by a high wall, and it was not known what was hidden inside, and above the factory, birdmen were constantly patrolling back and forth. The walls were covered with brightly colored vines, and the gate was closed, and the door was guarded by two werewolves.
"Wow, the guards are so strict, how can I get in?" Boruto exclaimed.
"It's up to you, Boruto," Kondo said earnestly.
"Me?" Boruto pointed to himself, looking a little confused.
"Well, don't forget, that thing inside you, you dig a big hole in the ground, and then we can climb in. Oh, no, it's rushing in," Kondo said.
“……”
And Shimaha was watching Boruto whose body was changing from the side, and the emotions in his heart were very complicated, and it was clear that the guy in front of him was also a parasite. However, I can't hate it, thinking about these days, although I sneer at him, but he always has a smile on his face.
The body gradually turned into branches, grew into the ground, and gradually disappeared, and several people then walked into the underground hole, past the tight guards, and into the factory.
A branch grew out from under the ground, observing the surrounding situation, it was a clearing, and seeing this, the others came out later.
"Not a single one?" In Helian's heart, there was suddenly a trace of bad premonition.
Kondo frowned: "It's better for us to leave first." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he was about to return the way he came, but he found that the ground under his feet began to roll, and a sand snake jumped out from under his feet. Swooped straight over, and a few fleeting figures, the sand snake was cut into several sections, turned into a pile of loose sand, and fell to the ground.
"Looks like we're in ambush," Kondo said slowly.
Immediately afterward, from the surroundings, many people appeared, indeed, a group of ordinary people. It seems, very different from those parasites, "This is trouble," Jie Zhispear also put his hand on the knife at his waist.
A figure slowly walked out of the room, dressed in black, with a white crow pattern on it.
"Where do you seem to have seen this person?" Boruto was stunned.
Boruto looked directly at the man in front of him, and kept recalling in his head, but the people around him had already rushed forward. Because, the other party has already begun to attack, and this time, it is not those parasites who are fighting them, but real ninjas.
All kinds of ninjutsu flickered in front of him, but he couldn't catch these extremely agile guys, and Boruto's blue pupils suddenly dilated. Looking at the man in front of him, he suddenly remembered that he was in Sarana's house, on the table, in that picture frame.
In the frame, there are two people, a teenager carrying another small child, the child is Sasuke, Sarana's father. And the other is Sasuke's older brother, Itachi Uchiha!!
"How is it possible, isn't he already dead?" Boruto's head went blank all of a sudden, and he heard Sarana already mention the man to Sakura Haruno.
The man standing not far away was none other than Uchiha Itachi, the man who was already dead, the man who carried too much for the sake of the village, the man who had always loved his brother deeply, the man who ...... Legendary man.
"Hey, Boruto, what are you doing!!" Kondo's voice came, "Isn't it stupid, this is not training, it's a battlefield!" ”
Boruto reacted, pulled out his twin blades, and also rushed forward, flashing the fire escape in front of him. The results of this week's training were all shown, and when the knife was about to fall on the opponent's body, it stopped.
"He's not a parasite, he's a human," the thought flashed through Boruto's mind, and as a young man, he had never killed anyone.
However, it was this time of hesitation that gave the opponent a chance, and Kunai directly stabbed Boruto's body. Retreat back, however, fortunately, due to Boruto's special body, there is no harm from these ordinary physical attacks.
"Hey, kid, what are you doing?" For the first time, Shimaba took the initiative to speak to Boruto.
"They're not parasites, they're humans," Boruto turned his head, only to see that Shimaba's twin blades were already stained with blood, and several people had fallen in front of her.
Boruto's pupils were flickering, and Shimaba lowered his head and looked at these blood-shedding humans, with hatred on his face: "For me, there are only enemies, regardless of whether they are humans or parasites. ”
"Boruto," Kondo noticed the scene.
The Uchiha Itachi not far away also saw the process just now.
