The peach land in the high-speed rush did not stop again, and the heavy breathing gradually calmed down.

He looked ahead, and at the end of the Kyaukbai Mountain Road, a dark jungle covered the originally bare valley.

"The place that the bird said is around here."

The companions who followed him stepped on the towering rocks with their feet, and when they opened their mouths, they were the usual tone of the stereotypical femme fatale—

The speed of speech is slow, the tone is soft, but there is a murderous motive hidden in the change of stress in the words.

Under the huge and slender moon, a hoarse wind poured out of the forest, swaying the woman's long blue dress that could be used as an evening dress without affecting the battle, while gently dancing the knee-length red hair of the other party.

"But I remember that there was no pine forest in this area before, right, you can't see the edge at a glance."

Terumi raised her hand to arrange the ends of her hair, "It is so easy to change the geographical environment, it is worthy of the product of the combination of water and earth......"

"Obviously, I synthesized Dissolution and Boiling Escape many years ago, and I can be regarded as an expert in the synthesis of blood-type inheritance limits.

"Only this one, I don't have a clue at all, but now I have been learned by a little girl, I really have to admit defeat."

It can be heard that she is full of curiosity about the exclusive blood stain between the Thousand Hands Pillars of the Ninja God.

"If you're so interested, find a way to kill her and bring her back to study, maybe your confusion will be solved, and it can be considered a credit."

If you don't snort coldly, then you looked at the beautiful woman leaning above and lowered her eyebrows: "Also, what are you doing covering half of your eyes at night, won't it affect the observation environment?" ”

"Isn't there such a sentence...... "Terumi covered the red hair that covered her eyes with her left hand, and stretched out her right index finger to put it in front of the eros-like plump lips: "Secrets make women more feminine." ”

"Don't always use the lines in the third-rate detective. A ninja is a ninja, and it doesn't make a difference whether it's a man or a woman. ”

Although he said that, he was still touched by the secret of Terumi Ming if he didn't cut it.

"Speaking of which, no one seems to know what your right eye looks like, should it be ......?"

"Could it be anything?" Terumi smiled playfully, as if she liked to be guessed by others for her full face.

"You shouldn't be like that named Qing, who secretly got a white eye and hid it behind his hair, right?"

No more out of the pragmatist's line of thought, give a guess.

[In that case, the old lady's wedding date will have to be ranked in the next life. 】

Terumi made up for the white appearance of half of her eyes, and forced a smile: "I'm sorry." I swore when I was a kid that I wouldn't be seen until I got married.

"If you really want to know, introduce me to some reliable men. Of course, a weirdo like you who has no eyebrows, speaks ugly, and likes to wrap your face in bandages is fine. Secrets will make a woman more feminine, but it can't make a man more masculine. ”

"That's a lot to ask for."

After another sentence, he didn't say anything more, and walked straight towards the black shadow.

"Didn't the bird tell us to wait here?" Zhao Meiming reminded: "I came to be a guest honestly to ensure the safety of that child, don't make your own decisions and make superfluous things to misunderstand the other party." ”

Hearing Zhao Meiming mention "that child", he paused, and then retorted with annoyance: "It's your business to be an honest guest, I didn't come here for that scrapped tool." Getting rid of that wooden ninja for the village is the real purpose of my trip. ”

"One bite at a time, a piece of waste, so ugly to say......"

Terumi teased: "I don't know who has to travel overnight in the past two days, so I can't even sleep for beauty sleep, and I have a blind date after returning to the village."

"Alas, it's because of this mischievous personality that there are so few people in the village who support you.

"I saw Shiro's confidence in you before, I originally regarded you as a competitor, but I didn't expect that there were only twenty-two people who chose you as the water shadow in the end, and I wanted to laugh a little when I thought about it."

seemed to be talked about the sore spot, and then turned around gloomily: "So what, there are so many people who support you, but as soon as the ghost comes back from the ghost lamp full moon, don't those people also change their minds?"

"Now it's him who is responsible for Mizukage. As a result, that guy, as soon as he came to power, accused me of using Shiro to collude with Konoha ninja......"

As he spoke, he pointed to the black outline of the jungle: "Now the one named Butterfly Shinobu is now the most wanted criminal in the village."

"If I can kill her and bring her back, I will not only be able to get rid of this suspicion, but also gain the trust of the old thing of the Yuan Master. Now that the other party has revealed his location, isn't this a godsend?

"Well, you don't want to join me and turn around and slap that little ghost (ghost lamp full moon) in the face?

"Think about it, he made such a big mistake just a few days after he became the acting Mizukage, maybe that position will directly belong to you."

Terumi shook her head, not persuaded by the overly obvious incitement: "You take it for granted. You have also seen the fate of Yuan Zhenyi's group of people, let's not talk about whether we can do it......"

"Yuan Zhenyi will die because they don't understand the truth that the lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, and they still divide their troops to fight in the woods, and they deserve to die."

Zai Bu Chop was very persistent, and rudely interrupted Terumi Ming's analysis: "Besides, when he was recuperating in the village, I was on extremely dangerous missions everywhere. Although that guy and I are both shinobi, our abilities are not comparable at all.

"No matter how strong this little ghost is, he has just awakened Mu Dun, can he still compare to the guy who cut out a training ground with one sword?

"It's already a miracle that such a character comes out once in a hundred years."

"But have you ever thought about ......?"

Terumi meditated comprehensively, "If you really do this, how are you going to face that child in the future?"

"According to the letter brought by the bird, it seems that Shiro and the little girl named Butterfly Shinobu are already very good friends."

"I will not say whether the faith is true or false. In the life of a ninja, friends are just tools to use each other, just like the relationship between you and me. ”

Zai Bu gritted his teeth, and then said the most sincere sentence tonight: "All in all, if you want to get Bai rid of the reputation of rebellion and forbearance, killing the owner of that bird is the only way at present!" Otherwise, he will always face the threat of pursuing and killing troops.

"Whether you want to help me or not, I have to do it!"

It can be seen that in order for Bai to return to the fog in the name of righteousness, he has already forgotten all the risks.

After saying that, he no longer waited for Terumi to respond, and burrowed into the woods without looking back.

"Alas, it's clear that they're already planning to fight everything for each other, and they're still there to keep shouting."

Terumi sighed regretfully, jumped off the rock, and followed unhurriedly.

After all, she can't really let her partner die.

"If you don't cut it, whether it's interpersonal relationships or your own strength, you don't have any self-knowledge at all."

Half an hour later.

Deep in the dense forest, in front of a mountain wall near the base of the Great Snake Pill, a white-haired boy with a mouth full of fangs was practicing swinging his knife horizontally.

"Old witch!"

Ghost Lantern Shui Yue's face was aggrieved and annoyed.

"Stinky woman!"

He wielded his weapon while maintaining a peculiar rhythm of breathing.

"Evil Dryad!"

At the same time, he did not forget to vent his dissatisfaction with the butterfly shinobi who taught him the breath of water.

"When I'm as good as a teacher—"

Originally, Yiyong promised to come back and teach him Shuihu, without any other additional conditions.

"You have to ...... your hair"

But as soon as Yiyong left, Butterfly Shinobu immediately changed his face and asked him to be responsible for distributing food and cleaning the base.

Only after completing the daily work can he get an hour to practice the water breath together, and 3/4 of this time, he is being beaten.

"Inch by inch" ......"

It is conceivable that after a day's work, study and the use of hydration to recover from his injuries, he has even less time left for himself to train and consolidate.

Now he's been in school for three days, but he's still training the Breath of Water's Ichino-Shape Water Slash, and his progress is very limited!

"All shaved!"

Maybe the backlog of dissatisfaction in his heart was too strong, this time the sword swing was a little stronger, and his hand was more slippery, Ghost Lantern Shuiyue actually threw the knife in his hand directly into the dark forest opposite the mountain wall.

However, the imaginary crunch of the knife hitting the ground did not come from the imagination, but was replaced by the familiar sound of the hilt falling into the palm of a person's hand.

"Jun Maro? White? ”

Except for these two people and Ranmaru, who was not very strong physically, Ghost Lantern Shuiyue couldn't think of anyone else who would come to him specifically.

[It can't be that I sneaked out and was discovered by the old witch, right? 】

But as soon as he took a few steps forward, he saw a tall figure.

The ghost lantern Shui Yue, who was instigated by nature, sensed that something was wrong and retreated again and again, and the uninvited guest followed suit, and was soon exposed to the white moonlight.

The man was carrying a broad-bladed broadsword behind him, with no eyebrows but a fierce gaze, and the bandage covering the lower half of his face added a bit of fierceness and mystery to it.

"You, you, you're not ......" Ghost Lantern Shuiyue pointed his finger at the other party as he retreated, "Aren't you the substitute for the Ninja Seven?" It's called the ...... who don't cut it again."

"Ghost Lantern Water Moon."

Because he had suffered a loss from this little ghost's brother not long ago, he didn't look at the water moon who was eight points similar to the former, and his eyes narrowed slightly in disgust, "I didn't expect to meet Mizukage-sama's younger brother here, it's really an unexpected harvest." ”

"Mizukage's younger brother?"

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue had an expression of "Are you not very good in your brain", "Although Goji Yakura looks about the same age as me, he is actually forty or fifty years old......"

[It seems that the ghost lamp full moon has not contacted him, and may not even know that he is still alive.] 】

While thinking about the use value of the ghost lamp water moon, he waved the knife in his hand and slowly approached, "Now the generation of water shadow in Wuyin Village is your brother, the ghost lamp is full moon." ”

"Wow."

The ghost lantern Suiyue looked surprised, but it wasn't really touching.

He knew that Goji Yakura was killed by Orochimaru, Orochimaru was killed by his teacher, and his brother Ghost Lantern Full Moon was not Goji Yakura's opponent.

So, in Mizuki's heart: the elder brother is smaller than Yakura is smaller than the big snake pill is smaller than the teacher, in the eyes of the water moon who is now eye-open, the water shadow sounds very powerful, but it seems to be ...... What is it all about?

"Since he is Mizukage, you are his subordinate, and I am his brother, so I should be half of your boss...... Can you give me back my knife first? ”

Zai Bu Chop was silent for two seconds, and then threw the knife back.

He forgave this little ghost and had no ability to resist, but by doing so, he could gain his trust.

Besides, he heard it very clearly, the ghost lamp Shuiyue had said the names "Bai" and "Jun Malu" before, and it should be with the little ghost who knew how to escape.

"So, what is the matter with you coming here? Isn't it some kind of mission? ”

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue stuffed the knife back into the sheath, looking well-behaved, but in fact, he looked around vigilantly, looking for traces of others.

He didn't fully believe that the ghost lamp full moon had made a water shadow, and he couldn't have guessed that these people had come to arrest him just like he had when he was in Tang Shinobi.

"I was invited by a guy named Butterfly Shinobi."

"Oh-" The vigilance in Ghost Lantern Shuiyue's heart suddenly lowered a lot, "I heard that someone will come over tonight, so it turned out to be you." ”

"It's me."

Zai Bu Chop continued to ask, "Do you know Bai?" ”

"See you every day."

"Well, he's my ......" When it came to describing the relationship between the two, Zai Bu suddenly didn't know which word to use.

"Tools, I know." The ghost lamp Shui Yue made up for the re-donation, stretched out his little thumb and plucked his ears, "He mutters all day long, 'I am a tool that will never behead the adult again', 'I will sacrifice everything for the re-beheading of the adult', everyone knows, the ears hear the calloon." ”

Hearing Bai claiming to be his tool from other people's mouths, for some reason, he always felt uncomfortable if he didn't cut it again.

After adjusting his mood for a moment, he asked again, "Do you know how he's doing here?" ”

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue stared at the gloomy upper half of his face for a while, sighed and said, "How can it be good......

No more's brows twisted, and two fierce lights shot out of his already brutal eyes.

"Here, we have to be crushed by that old witch every day.

"For example, I work for ten hours a day and get beaten for an hour at night. If it weren't for the help of my family mysticism, I would not even be able to stand up now. ”

It's rare to meet an outsider who won't give a small report to Butterfly Ninja, so Ghost Lantern Shuiyue took the opportunity to pour a good dose of bitter water.

"According to my observation, among those of us who are forced to work, the hardest work is actually in vain.

"The old witch squeezed him the hardest, and called him to work while everyone else slept, and was the most dangerous of all.

"I heard Ranmaru, who works the night shift with Shiro, say that Shiro was almost stabbed in the heart once by accident......"

In his description, Shiro is the worst of all people, obviously wronged, but obedient to the old witch, suspected of being a victim of the captivity plot (Stockholm syndrome).

He wasn't lying. Because in the ghost lantern water moon brought himself into the past, it was such a life for nothing.

After all, who likes to give and to those monster-like guys? It must have been forced!

As he chattered, the peach field on the side became more and more gloomy.

It wasn't until he heard that "he went to work at night, and was forced to repair a big ship during the day, and this evening he seemed to be called to him by an old witch and scolded", that the anger that had accumulated finally reached its peak.

He pulled out the broad-bladed knife behind him, wiped the ear of the ghost lamp Shui Yue, and stabbed it into the stone wall behind the latter.

"Wow!" Ghost Lantern Shui Yue didn't open his mouth but let out a terrible scream, "What are you doing?" ”

Without slashing down again, he grabbed the collar of the ghost lamp Shui Yue and pushed it against the stone wall, and asked in a cold voice, "Who is the old witch you are talking about?" ”

"Aren't you the one she invited?" Ghost Lantern Shuiyue asked rhetorically.

"You mean, that Butterfly Ninja."

"It's a wooden escape, but it's not a ninja." Ghost Lantern Suizuki corrected and whispered, "She hates ninjas, and we rarely mention this word in front of her. You'd better say less. ”

[It's right with the guy who escaped.] 】

[Shiro is also a ninja, so there's no reason to be treated differently by the other party.] 】

He remembered the towering tree tower he saw near the rest stop that day, and the horrific corpses of the group of fog ninjas.

Can the ninjas in the blood mist feel their scalps tingle, can they be kind-hearted and gentle-tempered people?

The more I recalled the letter that the bird brought, the more suspicious I felt.

[How could a person who can commit such a cruel act, with a white character, be her friend? 】

[Either the other party forged Bai's letter, or Bai was forced to write that letter, deliberately luring us over. 】

[However, there are still some strange places......]

He glanced at the knife in Ghost Lantern Shuiyue's hand: "Since this Butterfly Shinobi has been squeezing you, why don't you run away, and why would she allow you to have a weapon?" ”

[Of course, it's to learn swordsmanship.] 】

This is a ready-made answer, the ghost lamp Shui Yue just wanted to speak, and then remembered that this guy in front of him was a substitute member of the Ninja Sword Seven, and he couldn't figure out the idea of hitting the breath of water.

So he immediately changed his words: "Do you see that forest?" As long as she wants, she can change the layout of the trees here at will, and she can't get out. As for the weapons...... "

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue shook the knife in his hand, and said a little indifferently: "In front of Mu Dun, what can this kind of thing be used for?" ”

[I see, it seems that it is still too naïve to rely on the blood to inherit the limit and have no fear. 】

If you don't think about it, [but the more rampant you are, the more you can't imagine that there will be an accident...... If you kill with one hit from a dead end, the chances should be great. 】

At this moment, no more slashing returned to the time when he thought he could kill Orochimaru with one sword.

"Do you know the way back?"

"Yes." Ghost Lantern Shuiyue nodded: "The layout of the trees in the inner circle will not change. ”

Then he tilted his head, and there was still a slight suspicion in his eyes.

His relationship with Butterfly Shinobu is bad enough, but he doesn't want to hand over any more handles to that woman, and if he gets into trouble again, he's afraid he'll have to go to the bathroom to brush the toilet.

"But since the old witch invited you here, she should tell you how to go."

"I came early, and the crow that I agreed to lead the way didn't appear, so I went straight inside."

It's the truth. It was two or three hours earlier than midnight as agreed, and he had been on his way for this.

"That one is called Butterfly Shinobi, where is he now, do you know?"

"Before I came, she seemed to be cleaning the square with those imps. I sneaked out while others weren't looking. ”

"Outside?" If you don't cut it again, you feel that you have more hope of success.

"Hmm. There seems to be some banquet tonight. Ghost Lantern Shuiyue looked disdainful, "I'm too lazy to participate in this kind of team building brainwashing activity." ”

[Brainwashing activities? 】

If you don't cut it again, the hostility towards Butterfly Shinobu is one point higher.

"Where you are, is there a high vantage point where you can overlook the whole picture?"

No more slashing is already choosing a hideout for the assassination operation.

"There's a hillside outside the base with an apple tree on it, and that's the highest place in the neighborhood."

"Then take me to that hillside."

"Avoid the eyes and ears of others, and try to choose a path that is off the beaten track." ”

"Are you afraid that someone you know will see you and make the village misunderstand your relationship with this side? There's no need, the people here have almost no connection with the fog and the ......"

"I can't take any chances." Explain with a gloomy face, "The new Mizukage needs to be powerful when he takes office, and he will do whatever it takes to grab the handle of others......"

"Sounds like he's going to do it."

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue didn't doubt it anymore.

"It's okay to save those little ghosts from blocking me on the road and forcing me to go to the banquet."

But then, Ghost Lantern Shuiyue's voice changed: "However, if I lead the way for you instead of that bird, you have to do something to repay me, right?" ”

[Isn't it a reward to rescue you from this Longtan Tiger's Den? 】

No longer staring at him with a blank face.

"Since you are the substitute for Loquat Shizang, then the sword technique should be reasonable."

Ghost Lantern Shui Yue had an eager expression: "When you're not so busy, how about we try our sword skills?" ”

“……”

Thinking of the accusations made by the ghost lamp full moon against himself, he no longer looked at the little ghost in front of him who didn't know the height of the sky, and nodded.

[Am I the only one who thinks this little ghost is very underrepaired?] 】

[This kind of bad character, even if he is caught and used to threaten the ghost lamp full moon, what kind of effect can it have? 】

"Let's go, then."

So, the ghost lantern Mizuki, whose mind was full of water, led the misty hidden ghost man who planned to assassinate Butterfly Shinobu to bypass the correct entrance to the square, and walked along the winding mountain road to the hillside where Yoshiyu, Butterfly Shinobi, and Kyojuro discussed future plans a few days ago.

As the slope gradually eased, the bare base in the valley came into view, and although he couldn't see clearly, he could generally see that many adults and children were preparing for the upcoming banquet, setting the table, preparing the food, and the noisy and noisy and very lively.

To be honest, it was supposed to be a jubilant scene.

But the man who holds the hammer looks like a nail in everything. It had long been expected that Butterfly Ninja was not a good kind of person to be cut again, and wishful thinking judged the noise below to mean that the crowd was boiling over the sky because of dissatisfaction.

At this moment, there is no more chopping action.

He saw White!

Shiro sat lonely on a tree stump, his palms facing each other on his abdomen, his fingers slightly bent, as if holding an invisible ball.

I know, of course, I'm trying the psychology experiment that Butterfly Shinobu said, trying to figure out what I really think.

But in the eyes of the uninformed, this action looks like a person who has suffered great mental torture and is playing with some invisible toy.

Immediately afterwards, Zai Bu noticed that the distance between Bai's hands was getting smaller and smaller, and the latter suddenly covered his mouth as if he had seen something unacceptable, and the whole person visibly became nervous and flustered.

How did it come to be? 】

If you don't cut it, you regret your decision to send Bai out of the village before the election.

He knew that it would be useless to contact Bai who was mentally abnormal now, so he had to reluctantly turn around and urge the ghost lamp Shui Yue to continue to lead the way.

When he was still twenty meters away from the top of the mountain, he suddenly caught the ghost lantern and hid behind a huge rock.

For there was a man on the top of the hill, who seemed to be sitting at a low table, busy with something.

Although looking at the back is a child with an unrestrained hairstyle, he smells a very obvious ...... The smell of gunpowder.

"Who's that?"

Don't slash down the confused ghost lamp Shuiyue's body, "Like you and Bai, are you forced to work here?" ”

"Ah, that guy ......"

Thinking of the evaluation of Uprising Yong [Xing Shoulang is much stronger than me], Ghost Lantern Shuiyue commented a little unconvinced: "Except for the old witch, he is probably the strongest person here, but I haven't seen him do it with my own eyes, and I always feel that there is a water ...... in this statement."

"An accomplice of the imp? Or a small boss or something? ”

Since it is determined to be an enemy, and it has a certain degree of danger, he does not plan to keep his hands if he does not cut it again. What's more, the other party also occupies a key position overlooking the surroundings and must be eliminated.

So, in the eyes of the ghost lantern Shuiyue "Are you having something wrong with your brain", he silently pulled out the broad-bladed broadsword behind his back, leaned over to the ground, and rushed towards Purgatory Kyojuro, who was stepping up the production of fireworks, like a rushing black panther.
