The corpse's slow pace, like a zombie completely possessed by carnivorous instincts, slowly approached Kakashi, who had drawn his short knife.

Kakashi didn't start fighting directly, but calmly analyzed the situation in front of him.

It seems that his previous suspicions were not wrong, these are not corpses, but "walking corpses" who have temporarily fallen into a state of suspended animation.

They were supposed to be members of the bandits before, but for some reason, their bodies became like this.

By the time the Oil Girl Volunteering Class came here to carry out their mission, these walking corpses should have fallen into suspended animation on a large scale.

This made the oil girl Zhixin class relax their vigilance, and mended a very shallow wound on the walking corpse that had not yet fallen into suspended animation, and some of the wounds did not even completely cut the skin.

But even the walking corpses that cut through the skin, Kakashi didn't see the blood inside, and the dark hole seemed to be empty.

And now their bodies have been rehydrated by the water just now, and they have recovered from the state of suspended animation from lack of water.

In other words, ordinary wounds are not fatal to these walking corpses, and the best thing to do is to twist their joints so that they can't move or cut off their heads.

At that moment, two dark shadows appeared beside Kakashi.

"Clouds!"

"Captain Kakashi, what's going on?"

Daisuke Yamakawa, who infiltrated from behind, finally noticed the abnormality here and came to their aid.

"Get rid of all these things around you first, and remember, you can only subdue them once and for all by breaking their joints or cutting off their heads!"

The three of them stood in a circle and surrounded Aono Unma, who was biting his neck, in the middle, so as not to be hurt by Aono Unma twice.

The walking corpses around them pounced on the three Kakashi, their attacks were haphazard, relying entirely on instinct, and it was not difficult for the three shadow ninjas to dodge such an attack.

But the white skin of these walking corpses was unusually tough, and the shuriken that Kakashi threw out didn't even scratch out a wound.

It seems that throwing ninjas is not very useful, and you can only use powerful ninjas to directly hit their vital points.

Kakashi rarely holds a short knife in both hands, maximizing the power of the short knife to achieve the purpose of slashing the head of the walking corpse.

The heads flew sideways in the bandit camp, and not a single drop of blood could be thrown out of the flying heads, all of them were white slime.

After a long time, the three Kakashi finally got rid of all the walking corpses.

Kakashi breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the abominable face lying in the water and couldn't move anymore, and then hurriedly turned back to deal with the matter on Aono Unma's side.

The situation on Aono Yunma's side is more complicated, the walking corpse that bit him has caused an extremely deep wound in an instant, if the two are separated directly, the wound will definitely bleed heavily, so you can only let the surroundings settle down first, and then slowly figure out a way.

Kakashi and the other two are not medical ninjas, and simple hemostasis may not be enough to stop the bleeding.

After a moment's thought, Kakashi made a bold decision.

Directly cut off the head of the walking corpse, and let the head of the walking corpse keep biting the posture of Aono Yunma and send it back to Konoha Village.

This not only ensures that the wound does not bleed profusely, but also sends the head of the walking corpse back to Konoha Village for study.

Just cutting off the head of this walking corpse should not cause the walking corpse's body to move too much, otherwise the bite wound may fall off.

You can't use ninja tools to cut, you have to use something sharper.

歘, 歘, 歘.

"Rachel!"

After the seal, Kakashi's right hand gathered blue lightning, and Daisuke Yamakawa and the others immediately retreated to avoid being injured by the inadvertent lightning arc.

Finding the right time and position, Kakashi waved his right hand, and the head and body of the walking corpse were simply separated, without a trace remaining.

Without the body of the walking corpse as support, the unconscious Aono Unma was about to fall, but was caught by Kakashi.

"You tie this head around his neck and send it back to Konoha Village immediately."

"What about you?"

Daisuke Yamakawa took over Unma Aono, who was bitten by the strange head, and saw that Kakashi had no intention of leaving together, so he asked.

"I still have a mission to complete." Kakashi looked up in the direction of the cave.

After experiencing the events of his father and companions, Kakashi was firm in an idea.

That is, whether it is to complete the mission or save his companions, he has to do it.

Daisuke Yamakawa and the other dark part looked at each other, and without convincing Kakashi, they left directly with Aono Unma.

Kakashi returned to the cave again.

This time the cave was much quieter, as if nothing had happened.

Hiding behind the familiar stone wall, Kakashi first listened to the sound behind the stone wall.

There is no breath of any human being.

But even so, because of the statue's existence, Kakashi didn't dare to stick his head out to look at it directly, and took out the mirror to continue probing.

The area around the high platform was empty, and all the ninjas who had been standing around the statue had disappeared.

But just as the mirror was about to sweep to the top of the platform, Kakashi immediately let go of the mirror in his hand the moment he saw the green color.

Smack...

The sound of broken mirrors echoed through the cave.

They left that statue behind!

Kakashi was extremely vigilant this time, plus he knew where the statue was placed before, so he didn't even see a corner of the statue this time.

But Kakashi was sure that the green-glowing thing was the statue.

Are they still lurking in caves?

Kakashi shook his head, he was sure that his exploration would never miss anyone in such a small cave, and he was indeed the only one left in the cave at the moment.

But why did they leave this statue behind?

Kakashi knew that this was not an ordinary statue, but a statue with a powerful illusion, and that such a statue was not worth taking with him?

Or is it...

Kakashi remembered that the Misty Hidden Village had implanted the Three Tails into Rin's body before, and then drove himself and Rin to send the Three Tails to Konoha Village, trying to make the out-of-control Three Tails run wild in the Konoha Village.

In the end, Lin calmly died for the sake of the village.

Could it be that this is a repetition of the old trick of the Fog Hidden Village?

Kakashi shook his head, thinking it was unlikely.

The statue's illusion was powerful, but it wasn't completely out of control like the Tailed Beast.

I now knew that the illusion of this statue would be cast with the help of vision, and as long as the entire statue was wrapped in cloth, the statue's ability could be completely blocked.

After thinking about it, Kakashi decided to bring the statue back to the village.

Even if it's too dangerous to study, it must be brought back to the village and sealed first.

Kakashi closed his eyes and slowly approached the high platform with memory and fumbling around.

The moment he stepped on the platform, a murmur rang in Kakashi's ears.

These murmurs have no inaudible meaning, and they don't seem to be human sounds.

But what can be heard clearly is that there is a lot of "Cthulhu" in the whispering words.

Cthulhu...

Cthulhu again, what the hell is this?

This murmur upset Kakashi, who didn't want to hear them anymore and immediately wrapped the entire statue in a cloth.

As the statue was wrapped in a cloth bag, the whisper in my ears disappeared.
