After the furious burp, Xiaoxue officially took over the position of the Daimyo of the Land of Snow. She stayed with us in the Snow Country for a while, and of course it was a great place for me and Sasuke to practice Fire Escape.
"That...... Do you have to go!?" The time of separation came quickly, and Xiaoxue personally sent us to the port, and the twisted appearance was a little cute.
"Ahh
"Then take care of your safety, you are always welcome in the Land of Snow!" Xiaoxue also understood that my business was not for her to interfere in.
"Well, please go back!" I turned and walked towards the boat, and halfway through, a soft body wrapped itself around my waist and rested its head firmly on my back.
"You must come and see me!" Even though she is already the lord of a country, she is still a little girl.
"I'll come to see you when I've got everything settled. I turned around and put my arm around her shoulder, scratched her nose with my right hand, and got into the boat with a smile.
Xiaoxue and the third lady kept waving their hands on the shore until we couldn't see them anymore.
Time flies, it's been a week since I got back from Snow Country, and it's been a nice day today.
"Chirp~Chirp~Chirp~" Fresh air, soft sunlight, and dense forests form a beautiful natural picture. A ferret in the forest is foraging for food, and it accidentally smells what it likes. It followed the smell all the way, and sure enough, there was good food on the ground, and there was still it in front of it after eating, but it was walking towards the trap step by step.
"Great, it's coming! it's coming!" Naruto looked out from between the branches as he looked at the ferrets that had been led into the trap step by step, and his heart was excited.
"Hey, it's a critical time, be quiet, really!" Sakura was a little puzzled as to why Naruto during the battle was so much worse than the usual Naruto!
The ferret didn't hear them and continued to eat the food on the ground, and it seemed to humans that there were traps all around, and he would be caught in any of them, but it all went around. At this time, its two little claws held on to the bamboo tube hanging in mid-air, and it poked its head into the food in the bamboo tube, but the bamboo tube fell down at this time, which startled the ferret, and it saw the door of a hole with the same kind in a panic, so it immediately got into it, but it did not expect that this was also a trap.
"Caught!" This mission and Sakura Naruto are not Sasuke but Shikamaru, and all the traps are his idea.
"Great!" Naruto and Sakura immediately ran over happily.
"Good, good, good boy!" the ferret ran up to Sakura's shoulder as soon as it was released, and Sakura gently stroked its fur.
"There's a black mane on the hind legs, well, that's right. Shikamaru carefully observed the ferret's appearance and confirmed that it was the target they were looking for.
"Naruto, cage. With that, he asked Naruto, who had been holding the cage, to put it in, but this nimble little thing left the crowd in three or two clicks.
"Damn! don't run!" Naruto immediately chased after him, but luckily caught him in time.
"Wow!" but not paying attention to his feet, Naruto was caught by the trap they had set for himself and hung upside down from the tree.
"Really, it's really unpleasant for the guy who entrusted us with finding this ferocious cat!" When Naruto was hung upside down just now, he received a few paws from that little thing, and the paw prints on his face made him unhappy.
"It's not a cat!it's a ferret, it's pretty cute if you look closely!" Sakura has no resistance to cute things like a normal girl.
In this way, everyone walked slowly towards the client's village, and there was nothing wrong along the way.
"Hey, look!" Naruto pointed to a hill not far away, and smoke billowed from the back of the hill made people feel suspicious.
"Go and see, be careful!" the three of them hastened in the direction of the village, where a big trouble awaited them.
"Now it's starting to disperse, turn into a reconnaissance formation, I'll go to the forest to the west, Naruto and Sakura to the east, and I'll use the radio if there's a situation!" Shikamaru was the captain of the mission, giving orders to the two.
The three of them split into two groups and swept forward at a high speed, the cliffs in front of them were not a problem for ninjas at all, and Naruto and Sakura jumped to the hills.
"That's the village!" Sakura said, seeing the house behind the field.
"Tsk~Tsk~Tsk~Tuck~" At this time, the ferret that was carried in the bag by Naruto made a commotion.
"Hey, that's annoying!" Naruto whispered into the ferret.
"All of a sudden, what's going on?" Sakura was also very strange, she was obviously very well-behaved in her backpack just now, but she suddenly screamed, and kept writhing, and she was already being targeted behind them.
"Whoosh!" Shikamaru had already reached the other side here, but what he saw surprised him, and it was a mess, as if there was a war.
"Woo-ah!!" Sakura-chan suddenly came over the radio.
"Hey, what's wrong?" Shikamaru was startled and hurriedly asked about the situation, but the reply was a murmur.
"Whoosh!whoosh!whoosh!" three huge armored warriors swung their maces at the two of them, but fortunately they dodged in a hurry.
"Boom!" the burly samurai swung his mace at Naruto, and after Naruto dodged, a small hole more than a meter wide was smashed into the ground.
"Naruto, what's wrong!" Naruto's radio dropped at this point.
"There's a group of strange guys ...... out of the blue," Sakura replied to Shikamaru as she dodged the other party's attack.
"Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh......" Sakura relied on her flexibility far beyond the opponent to keep throwing out the kunai, and the kunai stabbed the target smoothly, but the opponent was still attacking, and the movement was not sluggish.
"How could this be!" obviously Kunai stabbed the other party, but it had no effect, which made Sakura very distressed.
"In that case!" Taking advantage of the other party's inattention, Sakura threw an explosive kunai this time, and after an explosion, the other party was successfully eliminated.
"Great!" Sakura clenched her fists in delight, but the next moment she couldn't be happy.
On Naruto's side, the previous samurai had been easily eliminated, and the opponent was now a teenager about his age.
The silver knight's armor covered his body, red on the inside, a light green cloak on the outside, and a small rectangular shield on his hand, with a short sword pinned to his waist behind his back.
"Boom!Boom!" Naruto threw a stack of shuriken at him, imagining what it would look like to stab his target, but actually disappointed him.
"Ding, ding, ding!" The small shield on the young knight's left hand immediately stretched out and turned into a small round shield, easily slashing all the shurikens.
"Hah!" Naruto frantically attacked him with a kunai in his hand, and the young knight used his short sword to defend impenetrable, sparks flying.
"Babble!" Sakura's scream not far away made Naruto's attention slacken, and the young knight took the opportunity to stab Naruto with a sword, but Naruto dodged in time.
"Sakura-chan!" Naruto hurried over, Sakura's hands were tied, and he kept kicking at the samurai with both feet, making a muffled "bang, bang!" sound.
"Damn, it's so despicable to take hostages!" Naruto felt a burst of atmosphere when he saw Sakura being caught, but he couldn't think of a good way to deal with the enemy for a while.
"Boom!" the young knight dodged the attack of the mace in surprise, but it was the attack of the samurai who had caught Sakura.
"Shadow Imitation!" It turned out that Shikamaru arrived, and when everyone's attention was relaxed, he secretly used the secret technique of the Nara clan to control the samurai and save Sakura, which also eliminated Naruto's worries.
"Naruto, I'll take care of the rest!" Shikamaru knew Naruto's strength to pack up a young knight at all, and he and Sakura just happened to help him suppress the formation.
"Great! I don't care who you are, I'll clean you up now!" Naruto was full of energy, intending to give it his all.
"The Technique of Multiple Shadow Clones !!" A large number of shadow clones appeared in front of the young knight one after another, surrounding him heavily, and behind him was a cliff, and he had no way to retreat.
"Wow!" the young knight also took it seriously, and the short sword danced a sword flower, which instantly turned into a long sword, and the sword was wrapped with inexplicable energy.
"Let's go!" Under the order of the main body, many shadow clones pounced towards the young knight, and the momentum was overwhelming, but on the contrary, the opponent was not in a hurry, and waved the long sword in his hand towards the Naruto clone who surrounded him, and the unknown energy instantly shattered all of Naruto's shadow clones, and the smoke produced obscured the opponent's vision.
"Spiral Pill!" Naruto took the opportunity to attack from the side with Spiral Pill, and after the young knight reacted, he also met it head-on.
"Thor Lightning!" The young knight immediately reacted and attacked with all his might, and the energy on the blade instantly exploded into the power of the spiral pill and collided with each other, and for a while, the two sides were evenly matched, and no one could help anyone, but the air wave generated by the collision of the tricks scraped Naruto's backpack away, which was the ferret required by the mission, Naruto wanted to grab the bag of the backpack with his other hand, but the two energies exploded at this time.
The "Boom !!Rumble" burst out of amazing energy and blew up the cliff, but Naruto and the Boy Knight fell off the cliff at the same time.
"Naruto!" After watching Naruto fall off the cliff, Sakura felt a burst of regret in her heart, if the three of them had gone up together just now, it would have been fine.
"Damn!" Shikamaru also regretted that he shouldn't have let Naruto go alone.
"Boom, boom, boom!" Suddenly there was a vibration from under their feet, which caused the attention of the two to be diverted for a while, and Shikamaru pulled Sakura to hide in the bushes, a sight they had never seen in the distance.
A huge building appeared in their field of vision from the side of the mountain, the towering chimney constantly spewing smoke and dust, its size was no less than the size of a mountain, but the building was still moving slowly, which made both of them extremely shocked.
After nightfall, it seemed to have become another world, "Hmm~" Naruto opened his eyes and looked at the unfamiliar ceiling, and before his mind was fully awakened, he turned his head and saw the backpack he had lost, which had a big hole.
"Ahh
"Huh?" he saw a group of people chatting around the campfire, and he looked around and saw a teenager his age sleeping next to him.
"If you're awake, you'd better not be forced to move!" an old but energetic voice came into Naruto's ears.
"I thought I wouldn't wake up every two or three days!" When the voice reached Naruto's ears again, the owner of the voice also appeared, a very energetic old man with a felt hat on his head, a gray beard and hair, and a rosacea nose.
"Who are you, old man?" Naruto asked subconsciously as he looked at the old man in front of him.
"I, I'm the elder of this caravan, and my name is Cassicco. The old man came to Naruto with a bowl in his hand and sat down.
"Caravans?" Naruto rarely left the village, but he had never seen such a merchant.
"yes. The people of the village took advantage of us as wanderers. We travel from place to place as the seasons change. Anyway, you're in good luck when you came across our caravan. If we hadn't gone through there, you'd have been swept away by the river. The old man motioned for Naruto to turn around, and he applied ointment to Naruto's body.
Naruto continued to look at the tent as well, and when he saw a pile of armor and short swords, he immediately screamed excitedly when he compared it to the sleeping boy next to him.
Later, under the persuasion of the old man, they were fine, after all, the two were injured now. After seeing the ferret that was the target of the mission, Naruto wanted to catch him, but when he saw the ferret climb onto the old man's shoulder, he realized that the mission to ask the village to find the ferret was issued by this old man.
The old man said that this ferret named "Nerkuyi" was a little afraid of life, and had never left the caravan, which was the lifeblood of the old man, but Nerkui left the old man's shoulder on his own at this time, came to the young knight's side and fell asleep, looking very peaceful. This made Naruto very suspicious of what the old man had just said.
At the same time, Sakura and Shikamaru secretly arrived at the docking point of the huge fortress, watching the people on it leave the fortress one by one, looking for something everywhere, and these people were the samurai who had attacked them earlier.
"What the hell are those people doing?" Sakura watched the samurai wander around, but they all had a range, and she was very curious.
"Who knows? Sakura-chan, you go to Naruto and find me radioed, I look at this group of guys, and I'll see if I can find any information when I have a chance. "First he was suddenly attacked, and now Naruto's whereabouts are unknown, and then a huge fortress suddenly appeared, and the members of the fortress were wandering around, and everything made people feel suspicious
