“…… Wrong! ”

Iwa Shinobi, who was in charge of perception, thought for a few seconds, and finally said cautiously: "Withdraw, go back and report to the captain!" ”

With that, he turned around decisively and left.

The two Iwa shinobi beside him also reacted immediately.

After hesitating for a moment, he decisively followed.

Although I didn't see the figure that my companion said, I had to be cautious anyway to ensure the safety of the team.

At this time, it is necessary to transmit this important information back to the place where the team is stationed.

But just as they were about to make a move.

Call!

A cold murderous aura suddenly appeared behind him, and the three people who were shrouded in this murderous aura couldn't help but stiffen their bodies.

Then, Perceiving Iwa Shinobi only heard a dull voice coming from beside him.

Dongdong! Dongdong!

As if aware of something, Sensing Iwa Shinobi's breathing suddenly stagnated, and his heart began to beat violently.

It was a familiar voice to him.

This is the sound of a sharp weapon penetrating the flesh.

Sensing Iwashinobu turned his head a little stiffly and looked at his companion who was making a strange noise beside him.

"Ho-ho, ho~"

I saw that blood continued to spill from the corners of his companion's mouth, and his stiff body was constantly twitching.

A blood-soaked dagger pierced his chest from behind.

The ghostly figure that seemed to melt into the shadows, I don't know when, appeared silently behind him.

And looking at the black shadow that was close at a moment's notice, the heart of the perceiving Iwa Shinobi sank suddenly.

"You...... You guy?! ”

He forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart, trembling and taking out the kunai to fight.

But the shadow flickered, and in the blink of an eye, it disappeared from his presence.

Before Iwanin could react, he saw a flash of cold light.

The kunai in his hand broke from it, and half of the kunai slowly slipped down.

"Ho-ho!"

Sensing that Iwa Shinobi was about to do something, he suddenly felt a tingling pain and chill in his neck.

Hiss...... Whoa!

A cold incision slowly opened, and a large amount of blood gushed out of it.

His eyes widened suddenly, his eyes were full of fear and unwillingness, and he slowly fell behind him.

From the silent appearance of the black shadow to the sudden death of the two Iwa ninjas, the whole process was only two or three seconds.

Dark Shadow after killing two.

I didn't even look at the two corpses, but looked at the last Iwa Shinobi.

I saw that Na Iwa Shinobi had already taken out a signal flare and was about to launch it.

The shadow swung his short knife at his wrist.

Katsa!

"Hmm!"

The palm of his hand was directly cut off with a knife, causing Iwa Shinobu to snort in pain, and the signal flare also fell to the ground.

Iwanin didn't hesitate, and the smoke bomb in his other hand fell hard.

Immediately decisively pulled away from the distance, ignoring the people behind him, turned his head and ran for his life.

"Who is this monster, it's like a ......"

- Like, Shadow!

It's easy for Iwa Shinobu to judge the difference in strength between the enemy and us.

This kind of enemy is simply not an existence that he is capable of dealing with.

The stealth ability is just too strong.

Obviously, there were still sentient ninjas on their side, but when they came behind them, they finally showed their killing intent.

Then he didn't give any chance to react at all, and he only swung two knives and slashed the two cleanly.

He just wanted to get the news back as soon as possible and gather his teammates to deal with the "shadow" together.

However, before he could run a few steps,

But suddenly he felt that his body did not obey the call, and he staggered forward and fell to the ground.

"What?"

Iwa Shinobu turned his head away in a stunned and dazed expression.

I saw that his body had been cut in two from his waist.

The body part below the waist was still standing, large patches of blood gushing out from the incomparably smooth facet.

"Huh...... Ahhh

”

After waiting for a moment, Iwa Shinobi, who had a blank expression, began to wail heartbreakingly.

The terrifying, intense pain surged up like a tidal wave.

This pain and fear of being cut in half is something that even a well-trained ninja cannot avoid enduring.

"I'm sorry, but can you be quieter?"

With a slightly apologetic voice, the figure wrapped in a black hooded coat slowly approached.

Looking at the figure that was gradually walking towards him, and looking at the short knife in his hand that was constantly bleeding, Iwa Shinobi's face distorted by pain also showed a look of horror and resentment.

"Kill me! Give me a good time!

”

Iwanin cried out with tears in his eyes, "I will never betray the information of the village, you can kill me!" ”

He was already dead from such a terrible injury.

However, he will never reveal the location of the team, he just wants to have a good time now!

"If that's what you'...... will"

The hooded man looked down at him and shook his head a little reluctantly: "I'm sorry, I can't promise you. ”

"However, since you don't want to tell me, then I won't force you to answer."

Hearing this, Iwa Shinobi's distorted face suddenly became happy.

But the next second, when he raised his head and looked at the man, the smile on his face suddenly froze again.

Because under the hole of the mask in front of him, the three-hooked jade writing wheel eye that exuded a scarlet color slowly emerged.

“…… Uchiha!

”

What this pair of writing wheel eyes means, he couldn't be clearer than if he was born in Iwakuin.

That is, the despair of not being able to keep the secret even when you are dying.

"The position I just cut off is the waist and hips."

"Although your internal organs and blood are flowing out, the main organs have not been damaged, and even if you don't take any measures to stop the bleeding, you will still have to die of blood loss after a few minutes." ”

"These few minutes are enough time for me to get all the information I need."

The moment the words fell.

And Iwa Shinobi, who looked at him, saw a flash of scarlet color.

The three magatama that exuded evil intent gradually enlarged in the field of vision.

"Don't worry, it's just that it will hurt a little at first, and you'll soon die in the illusion."

Although the tone of Zhishui sounded very gentle and compassionate.

But Iwa Shinobi, who still had a trace of consciousness, only felt that his body was cold, and a thick look of despair appeared in his eyes.

Eventually, his eyes gradually became glazed, and his consciousness slowly fell into darkness.

After a while.

Iwa Shinobu completely lost his voice.

"Over there?"

The scarlet color in the water stopper's eyes also dissipated, and he turned around and looked far away to the southeast.

"If nothing else, the spring side should have already started."

Well, he can't fall too far behind.

With this in mind, the form of the water stop melted into the darkness again.

………………

Inside the temporary station of the mining team in Iwain Village.

"Kakuto, what's going on with these guys in Iwain?"

A strange puppet that was lying on the ground and moved on the ground walked up to Kakudu and asked impatiently, "When are they going to act, I'm still in a hurry to add suitable materials!" ”

With that, he glanced casually at the corpse beside him, and his tone became more irritated.

After searching the neighborhood for so long, I only found one piece of garbage.

I'm afraid that in this small country, there are not many ninjas who can meet his minimum requirements.

Kakudu glanced at the corpse brought back by the scorpion, and took out a torn and thick bounty book from his bosom.

"What to urge, be patient when making money, and wait for their advance team to come back."

He flipped through the bounty book and replied casually: "Ahead is the territory of the country of Kawano, where the only remaining ninja forces in this country are concentrated, if you wait to kill them all, you should be able to find some suitable puppet materials." ”

Hearing this, the scorpion couldn't help but let out a sneer.

This guy from Jiaodu obviously wants him to be a tool man.

When the time comes, when he destroys this small country, there will always be some small fish and shrimp that will be rewarded.

But......

"It's not the first time I've destroyed a country."

The scorpion threw the corpse aside with some disgust: "Although it's all some garbage, I can only count it first." ”

With that, he turned his head to look at Kakudu again.

"Kakudu, if you die, your body will be mine."

The scorpion's voice was hoarse and deep, unpleasant.

And finding that there was no bounty on this corpse, Jiaodu also said a little impatiently: "You can give it a try." ”

That's when it happened.

"Two adults."

Captain Iwain walked over with a solemn expression: "There may be an abnormal situation." ”

Kakudu asked without raising his head, "What is the anomaly?" ”

"The advance team has lost contact."

“…… Lost contact? ”

Hearing this, Kakudu raised his head in some surprise.

If memory serves, there is one sentient ninja and two upper ninjas in the advance team.

Didn't even have time to send the signal?

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Seeing this, the scorpion beside him was very impatient and said, "No matter who you meet in this broken place, it is impossible to defeat the two of us!" ”

"Instead of grinding and chirping here, it's better to hurry up and push it over now!"

These rock ninjas are too cowardly.

It's just an ordinary resource mining mission, what level of enemies can you encounter in the country of Kawanoku?

“…… Well, just as he said. ”

Jiaodu thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "With the two of us sheltering, you can rest assured." ”

Seeing that the two masters had made up their minds, Captain Yanyin only hesitated for a moment, and then went back without saying a word to continue organizing the team.

Now there is no other choice but to believe in them.

But just as the horns stood up and were about to pack up and leave.

The pace under his feet suddenly paused, and he immediately became keenly aware of something.

Subconsciously look down.

Silent silence, deep shadows.

For some reason, the shadows became darker than usual, looking like a bottomless darkness like thick ink.

"Scorpion...... Shadow ......"

Intermittent, stiff words came out of Kakuto's mouth.

He struggled to control his head, turning his head to look at the scorpion.

But from the corner of his eye, he saw that the scorpion was the same as him.

- Someone has taken control of their bodies with shadow magic.

Worst!

The horns are secretly screaming badly.

But not before he could react.

In the next second, countless strange and distorted shadows surged towards him from the trees and the ground in a strange and mysterious posture.

Eventually, all the shadows came together and condensed into a figure shrouded in a coat.

The Uchiha's dark eyes were only cold colors.

His figure struck Jiaodu quickly, and the black blade in his hand slashed across Jiaodu's body without hesitation.

Poof!

Blood splattered from Kakuto's chest.

The knife slashed directly through his chest to his heart, revealing his scarred body under the red cloud robe on a black background.

"This guy ......"

The action of stopping the water paused, and his expression was also a little shocked.

He had clearly chopped this man's heart, but why could he still hear the heartbeat?

No, it's not.

It's not the heartbeat of a heart.

It's, several overlapping heartbeats.

"Uhh

With a low roar, four monsters with white masks and black threads on their bodies rushed out of Kakuto's body and scattered all around.

"What kind of secret art is this?"

Zhishui's gaze flickered, and he stepped back decisively.

At this moment, a masked monster with red lines on its mask opened its mouth towards the water.

Fire Escape: Head Hard!

Shells shot out of the masked monster's mouth like cannonballs!

Instead of making superfluous movements, the water stops and the hands are quickly sealed again.

"Fire Escape, Fire Dragon Flame Bomb!"

In an instant, a huge fire dragon spat out of his mouth, and he silently roared and rushed towards the corner.

Boom Boom!

The fire bomb struck the fire dragon with a loud bang and stirred up a flood of flames that filled the sky into a puff of smoke.

Wait until the smoke clears.

The tattered Kakudu and the scorpion have broken free from their grip and are facing each other from afar with Shisui in a black cloak.

"You ...... guy"

Kakuto looked at Shisui with a gloomy expression: "Shadow Jutsu, are you the Nara clan of Konoha?" ”

"No, no, although the Nara clan has a cunning personality, the shadow art is not so weird."

Thinking of this, he stared at the black three-eyed cat-faced mask on Shisui's face.

"Three-eyed cat-face mask...... Are you the Akatsuki Organization's Heavenly Imperial Palace? ”

Hearing Kakuto say this, Shisui immediately understood that Kakuto must have mastered Akatsuki's dress features, so he decided that he was the Heavenly Palace.

So he pointed to the mask on his face, shook his head, and chuckled, "I'm sorry, I'm not Tenno-Gochu, I'm Amaterasu of Akatsuki." ”

Kakudu said in a deep voice: "What Amaterasu? Are you kidding me? ”

He had never heard of Akatsuki and any other members other than the Tenno Gochu.

The scorpion urn whispered angrily, "His mask seems to be indeed different from that 'Heavenly Imperial Palace', they should just be an organization. ”

“…… A member of Akatsuki, didn't expect to meet here? ”

Kakuto's attitude was still steady, and he said to Zhishui in a condescending tone: "What do you want to do in Akatsuki?" We know that the organization has taken on this task! ”

"Don't get me wrong."

Zhishui smiled helplessly: "My mission is just to stop you from moving forward." ”

"If you're not mistaken, the secret technique you use should be the secret technique of the Taki Ninja Village...... I didn't expect this secret technique to disappear for decades and actually fall into your hands. ”

"I've changed my mind."

Jiaodu's expression suddenly sank, and he said in a cold tone: "Tell me the whereabouts of the Heavenly Palace, hand over all the information of your organization, and I can spare your life!" ”

The scorpion on the side said impatiently: "What nonsense to talk to him!" I'm very satisfied with this guy's body! Kill him directly! ”

Swish!

The moment the words fell, a sharp weapon like a scorpion's tail stabbed at the water.
