Chapter 40: Serious Injuries
The beginning of June of Konoha 60.
On the border of the Land of Waves, in a tavern in a village in the Land of Fire.
The dim light struggled to reach the dim corners of the tavern. At this time, there were two strange men in black cloaks sitting in the corner, because it was the afternoon cleaning time, so the waiter after cleaning was under the signal of the boss, and everyone rationally ignored the strange two.
"Kakashi-senpai, that's what I observed." A man in black said to Kakashi.
"Well, I see, it means that at first, two ninja rebels fled here, and then so many armed people came one after another?" Kakashi spoke.
"Yes, the motive is unknown for the time being, but there are indications that it all has something to do with Cardo, the de facto controller of the Land of Waves. It is worth noting that these misty ninja's traitors seem to be fugitive ninjas who follow the S-class traitor Momochi and carry out the failed coup d'Γ©tat in the misty ninja village. The man spoke.
"I see, but judging from the current strength, it seems that the other party only has two middle ninjas present and three lower ninjas? Is that so? Kakashi asked.
"Yes, the result after yesterday's observation is like this, the strength of the juniors led by the seniors, because they should be able to easily solve them." The man said.
"Hehe, you may be thinking too much! This mission is mainly to see the solving ability of these three juniors, and their strength is not much different from the other party. The strength grew relatively quickly, but due to the accidental death of the instructor, the village could not find a particularly good instructor for a while. That's why Hokage-sama wants me to lead them temporarily. If I could, I would probably be their instructor, and I observed the three of them and it felt pretty good. Kakashi explained.
"Oh? can make the seniors look at it, I don't know if it's the three talents of Konoha? Hearing Kakashi say this, he asked with some curiosity for a while.
"Elder Mito's grandson, Okita of the Hyuga family, and Fukukei Yao," Kakashi explained.
"Mito Naka? I've heard of it, although he is always out on tasks such as hidden observation, but in the past few years, when I return to the village, I can hear the villagers discussing him and the Hyugata family. Do the two seem to have been tied for first place in age and then graduated? In other words, Elder Mito has not used his power over the years to seek the welfare of this child! The man said with some amusement.
"Ahem, it's him, this kid is good, both natural ability and personality are excellent. Even Hokage-sama had instructed him in his cultivation, and I secretly observed him, and this kid had quite an appetite for me. Kakashi said.
"Does the senior mean that he is going to be the instructor of this group of juniors, mainly because of this child?" The man spoke.
"Seems like that? I'm not sure, but the other two guys in the same group are not bad either. It's just that Okita-kun's excellence is shrouded in the aura of Ningji and Naika, and it hasn't been shown. And Fu Xi Yao's medical ninjutsu talent and throwing talent are also excellent. After a pause, he continued:
"Fuxi Yao is okay to say, compared to these two people, I actually quite admire Hinata Okita, and now people mention him this time. Always compare Hinata Ninji with Mito Naka, and under this pressure, he can still maintain his self-motivation and steadily improve his strength. β
"The seniors have said so, so it seems that they are really satisfied. If nothing else, should it be them? Then I have to silently congratulate them here in advance, and follow a good instructor. The man spoke.
"I'm very satisfied, but there are still some worries in my heart, the teacher's son is about to graduate, I don't know what's going on, I used to subconsciously avoid these questions, but you know that there are things that can't be crossed over time after all." Kakashi explained.
"Heh, Nine-Tails Pillar Force Uzumaki Naruto? It is said that this kid is quite annoying! The man spoke.
"There are some things that don't go by hearsay, but with your own eyes!"
"It's rude, senior." ββ
After Zhou You waited for the three of them to rest in the hotel for a day, the three of them hurriedly left their money before the sky was completely bright, and the three of them went on the road together.
The three of them, who had rented a boat under last night's arrangement, slowly rowed along the first rays of the morning sun towards the target mountain on the coastline of the Fire Nation.
In the early morning, the water mist in the forest is very strong, which greatly affects the view. Changing layers means that it is very suitable for traveling three people with white eyes in the team.
"Two lower ninjas, two middle ninjas have similar strength to you and me. Between the middle ninja and the elite middle ninja. It's not good that they found us, it's the three shinobi" Hinata Okita said this, and suddenly shouted that it was not good to stand up and take out the kunai on his waist, blocking the Chibon launched by the other party, and the other five rushed towards Zhou You and the other three together.
"Keep in formation, pay attention to protect yourself, let's go too" Zhou You shouted, took out his short sword and rushed forward.
Due to the distance, Zhou You didn't see the other party's figure for a while.
Zhou You felt that the mist around him began to gradually increase, and his hands began to form seals, preparing to cast fire to evaporate the surrounding water vapor. Mouths shouted:
"Be careful of the other party's ninjutsu."
After finishing speaking, his hands were sealed, and a huge fireball spewed out from his mouth, heading in the direction that should have been the enemy.
But a water dragon could still be seen faintly pounced towards the three of them.
"Tu Dun, Tu Liu Wall" Fu Xiyao pressed his hands on the ground, and the earth wall extending from the heavy ground rose around the three of them. Blocked the opponent's water dragon.
"Spread out, try to kill the other party's shinobi first, and Okita-kun tells us where they are now."
"One shinobi is on the far left, the others are concentrated in the middle, and the far right is also a shinobi."
"Prioritize killing the rightmost shinobi, and the left side should be the opponent's trap, so feint to attack the left side." Zhou You spoke, and after speaking, a shadow clone with both hands was sealed, and he secretly fled to the tree behind.
The earth flow wall disappeared, and although the water vapor was strong in front of him, he could vaguely see the figure on the other side of the plane, and it was similar to what Hinata Okita said.
Hinata Okita rushed towards the other party, staring at the white eyes and scattering a lot of water bombs and the kunai projected by the other party.
"Tu Dun, Huangquan Marsh" Fu Xiyao disappeared from the Tuliu Wall at the moment when Huang Quannuma cast it towards the lone Shinobi on the left, obviously feeling that the other party was stunned.
The shadow clone Zhou You wielded the short sword in his hand and scattered the water bombs that shot at him, as well as Chibon and others. Lunged towards the lone shinobi on the left.
The other party found out about Zhou You's intentions and gradually moved closer, and a middle ninja and a lower ninja dragged Hinata Okita. The other middle ninja and the two lower ninjas cast ninjutsu on Zhou You, who was separated from the team, and the middle ninja rushed up and kicked Zhou You, who leaned back and retreated backwards, and the other party's kunai followed.
Papapai Ku shot at the position where Zhou You originally fell, and Zhou You turned into a piece of wood. Zhou You instantly appeared next to another shinobi, and the kunai in his hand was ready to erase the neck of this shinobi.
I had already guessed that you would be like this, this shinobi shouted, it turned out that this was just a water body, and the middle ninja appeared behind Zhou You and was ready to stab Zhou You's heart.
And Fu Xiyao's earth bomb technique and iron needle at this time shot at the middle ninja behind Zhou You.
Zhou You himself saw the opportunity to raid the two people who were fighting with Hinata Okita because they were concerned about the battle situation over there.
Hinata's soft fist was about to hit the middle shinobi in the chest, and the lower shinobi next to him quickly rushed over and kicked Hinata Okita's left hand. And Zhou You instantly appeared behind this shinobi, and the kunai in his hand was inserted into the back of the other party's heart.
This shinobi hurriedly jumped back because of this. Several people left the warband for a while. The other party died a lower ninja, and Zhou You lost more than half of the chakra and the feeling when the shadow clone died, which made Zhou You's face slightly pale-
"That's a good battle command and wisdom, senior," the Konoha man in the distance said to Kakashi beside him.
Kakashi snorted and closed the Sharingan, which he had opened to observe the battle.
The three of them are temporarily entangled with the other four, and Zhou You still can't do it for the time being because of the death of the shadow clone, or he can't force down this feeling like Shangnin, or he can't force down this feeling.
Therefore, Fukuxi Yao and Hinata Okita temporarily helped Zhou You defend, hoping that he could recover as soon as possible.
"Don't worry about me, please trust me, everyone can see the timing for themselves," Zhou You waved the kunai in his hand to block the other party's shot of Qianben and said.
"It's not good to have a detonation charm, everyone quickly dodge" At this time, Hinata Okita suddenly saw the kunai projected by the other party, and there was a scroll of the detonation charm wrapped around it, and reminded loudly.
The three of them dispersed in an instant, and Zhou Yu was alone on the right side facing one of the opposing side's middle ninjas, while Fukki Yao and Hinata Okita were facing each other's two lower shinobi and one middle ninja in the battle.
Due to the lack of chakra, Zhou You didn't have a good way to take the other party's shinobi for a while.
After fighting with each other for a while, the other party found that he couldn't take advantage of this Konoha Shinobi and even had some disadvantages in physical skills, so he relied on the abundant chakra to compete with Zhou You in ninjutsu.
Fu Xiyao also consumed a lot of chakra due to the plan that cooperated with Zhou You just now and the water dragon technique to defend against the other party, and now the scene looks a little precarious, and he is suppressed by the two lower ninjas.
The situation is very unfavorable to Zhou You and others.
"Aren't you going to make a move?" The man spoke.
Now the man was wearing Konoha's dark combat suit, and he had a cat mask on his face, and said to Kakashi beside him.
"Well, you don't need to mainly observe their reactions, if we make a move, we won't be able to achieve the effect of the exercise, now it's up to them to decide." ββ
With the advantage of his white eyes, Hinata Okita was keenly aware of the situation that Zhou You and Fuxi Yao were currently facing.
Kunwuge blocked the opponent's Qianben and scattered the opponent's water body with one punch. used the stand-in technique to dodge the surprise attack of the opponent's water body, and suddenly his heart was ruthless, and he directly met the opponent's kunai with his chest.
Under the piercing of Kunai's chest, blood instantly rushed out and splashed on the other party's face. Hinata Okita could clearly see the shocked expression on the other party's face at this time. Then he grabbed the opponent's kunai hand with one hand, and with the other hand, he carried Chakrama in his hand, hit the opponent's shoulder and stomach, and then kicked the opponent out.
The other party was temporarily sealed Chakra. Hinata Okita ignored the blood gushing from his chest, and took out a kunai and several ninja darts from his ninja bag behind him and shot them at Shinobi who was hiding from Fukuxi Yao Chiben.
Shinobi, who didn't rush to dodge, fell to the ground with a scream. This attracted the attention of the middle ninja who was against Zhou You.
Zhou You sensed the loss of consciousness of this middle ninja, and a teleportation technique moved to his side. Without sparing any strength, Shadow Maiba kicked the shinobi into the air, and his hand movements did not stop, almost shooting the hidden weapons that could still be used for throwing in the ninja bag at this ninja in an instant (it feels like a lot of them are actually only a little more than a thousand copies). Then he jumped behind the shinobi and kicked him in the back, kicking his body in the direction of the attack. The stamping action on the hand is non-stop, at the moment when it is about to land. A fire seal is sealed. Several small fireballs erupted from his mouth and shot at the shinobi.
"Bang" The corpse of the middle ninja exploded in the air.
The Nakashinobi, who had been temporarily sealed with chakra, saw that the situation was not right, and immediately flashed towards the rear.
Xia Ren was hit by a tacit fit of the three of them, and fell to the ground unwillingly.
After completing this series of actions, Hinata Okita instantly collapsed and lay on the ground.
Fukuxi Yao immediately moved to Hinata's side, ran chakra with both hands, and began to use medical ninjutsu to help Hinata Okita heal.
Zhou You began to be on guard on the sidelines.
