Chapter 347: Strange Gray Trees
"It's... That building that Naruto found yesterday, right? ”
Inuzuka couldn't believe his eyes, the style of the conical building was too different from the front and back.
The building material behind this cone-shaped building is strictly a dull mineral, reflecting only a small amount of solar luster due to the fact that it is covered with a faint layer of moisture.
The surface of these minerals is smooth but not flat, and the entire slope of the minerals appears dented under unimaginable pressure, arranged irregularly like layers of fish scales.
And on the underside of the bevel, it is the semicircular arch that looks a little weird.
Because this door is inexplicably small compared to the whole building, the proportions are like a dog hole under the wall.
"This is supposed to be the front of the building, if anything, it's that there's a door to enter the building, and we're all already here, and the insects didn't fly to attack us yesterday." Shino said in his own unique tone.
Naruto and Inuzuka nodded in agreement, and then Inuzuka turned to the side of the Akainu and asked, "Is Hinata in here?" ”
"Wang!"
"Akamaru said Hinata is here."
Hearing Inuzuka's confirmation voice, Naruto became impatient again, and regardless of the command of the captain Shino, he ran directly towards the arch under the cone-shaped building.
In front of the arch of the cone-shaped building is a straight path, and although the outline of this path is not obvious, the trees on both sides seem to welcome the mezzanine, giving way to the only path.
Wait a minute!
At this time, Shino looked at both sides of the path vigilantly.
It turned out that the eyes of the three of them were attracted by the tall conical building and the arch below, and they ignored the trees on both sides of the road.
In fact, these trees are not far more terrifying than the cone-shaped buildings.
The trees around the cone were much smaller than the towering trees of the Spice Insect Forest, almost a man and a half in height, and what was even more strange was that they were not brown, but metallic gray.
These metallic-gray trees have thick, cylindrical trunks that divide into two cylinders near the ground, which are further divided into six flattened circular extensions at the lower ends.
This may be a natural deformation, and such a statement may explain why the top canopy of this metallic gray tree is arranged in a regular circle.
But the point is that the trees here are all shaped like this, almost carved out of a mold!
These metallic gray trees seem to be aliens in this forest, but they are completely indistinguishable from each other, both in structure and form, and they are exactly the same that even human pruning cannot achieve!
And as Naruto ran through the middle of the path, Shino and Inuzuka saw those gray branches consciously stretching towards the path Naruto had run to.
It's definitely not Naruto's step-by-step movement that drives these gray branches, it's definitely an stretch of self-awareness, like an octopus's tentacles trying to catch its prey.
And at the moment when the hooks and forks on these gray branches were tilted, the two saw that in the middle of the junction between the main trunk and the treetops, there was a huge depression.
The depression resembles a dark tree hole, oval in shape and with spiral serrations around the edges, like an elliptical saw blade with serrations facing inward.
If this is not a structure that appears on a tree, Shino and Inuzuka prefer to understand such a tree hole as a "mouth" for eating.
[Get 790 shiver points from Shino Oil!] 】
[Get 880 Shiver from Inuzuka!] 】
"Naruto!"
Inuzuka shouted loudly on this side of the path, but Naruto was fast, and by this time he was already halfway through the path.
Hearing Inuzuka's voice, Naruto subconsciously looked back, only to find that the path he came from was gradually disappearing, and more and more gray branches were stretching out like tentacles, blocking the path when Naruto came.
"Ahh What is it! ”
[Get 890 Shiver Points from Naruto!] 】
[Get 1700 trembling points from the Nine Lamas!] 】
Naruto looked at the outstretched branches behind him in panic, and these branches gradually surrounded the retreat behind him, and the figures of Shino and Inuzuka were gradually drowned in the gray sea.
"Naruto! You go in first to save Hinata, and we'll follow. ”
At this time, Inuzuka Ya decisively commanded, since Naruto had already entered, there was no need to let Naruto come out again, as long as they found a way to deal with these gray trees quickly.
"Got it!"
Naruto inside instantly understood, although he was surprised in his heart, he was not afraid of the fact that he was alone in going deeper, and he turned his head and rushed directly to the arch of the cone-shaped building, taking advantage of the moment when the gray branches completely blocked the arch, and withdrew into it.
And Shino and Inuzuka's side, looking at all the gray trees that seemed to come to life, Inuzuka's body couldn't help but take a slight step back.
"Shino, what are we going to do with these trees? Do you know the information about these trees? ”
"Unfortunately, I don't know about these trees, the last time I was here, neither the conical buildings nor these gray trees were available here."
Although Shino's face under the towering collar did not have the same tension as Inuzuka's stubborn battle, Shino's heart still trembled a little when he looked at the gray trees in front of him that were approaching this side with teeth and claws.
Is someone manipulating these trees? Or do these trees themselves have the self-consciousness to control these waving branches?
How many of these trees are there in the Forest of Spice Insects?
After all, are these things the kind of trees that are recognized?
All kinds of random conjectures compressed the rational part of Shino, but fortunately, at this time, Inuzuka Fang on the side had begun to seal, and the sound of using ninjutsu woke up Shino, who was immersed in conjecture and panic.
"Ninja orc clone!"
Two identical Inuzuka teeth stepped on the ground with their hands and feet like quadrupeds, and then it was the classic move that had not changed for thousands of years.
"Tooth to tooth!"
The two Inuzuka teeth spun rapidly, sweeping like a tornado into the gray trees, instantly repelling more than a dozen gray trees.
Although these trees appear to be rooted in the ground, not only can their branches stretch, but even the roots of the cylinders can move at will.
It's like a tree man that only appears in fairy tales or legends.
And Inuzuka's actions also encouraged Shino, who was still hesitant next to him.
yes, what am I hesitating about now?
My companion is ahead, and now whatever danger lies ahead, I must step forward!
