A total of six people from Konoha Xiaoqiang came out of this mission. Except for Naruto Shikamaru, three were injured and one was almost at the bottom of his chakra. According to the process, the mission should be terminated.
Uchiha Sasuke is important, but the lives of the six Konoha youngsters are also very important. In the future, they will be the group of people at the forefront of Konoha, and the group of buds that the third generation will grow best.
Due to emotions and reasons, the mission should be terminated.
"Drag Shikamaru back, regardless of whether he agrees or not." Naruto said as he hurried on, "There are still two people left on the other side, and Sasuke's strength is also terrifying."
"I can't beat him anyway. If we continue to chase him, we will all die here."
The four of them were silent for a moment, and Choji was the first to speak in favor of Naruto's proposal, carrying the injured Inuzuka Kiba on his back.
"I think what Naruto said makes sense."
Xiao Li thought for a moment and then gave up.
"me too."
Inuzuka Kiba and Hyuga Neji were seriously injured and had no right to speak. The motion passed perfectly with 3 to 0. If Shikamaru had any other opinion, it would be five to one.
"There is movement ahead." The half-dead Inuzuka Kiba muttered.
Neji, who had a hole in his chest, opened his Byakugan again and looked in the direction pointed by Inuzuka Kiba. The field of vision jumped over the green trees in the forest and settled on the woods in the northeast.
"That's close to the border of Konoha." Hyuga Neji said, "A little further ahead is the Forest of Fire Country. You can't find it if you dig inside!"
There is an open long strip of plains between the Konoha Forest and the Land of Fire. To the west, it is close to the seaside, and not far away is the Valley of the End.
"I'll go over and take a look first." Naruto said after pondering for a moment, "You guys..."
Halfway through his words, Neji felt like he was flying again, drawing a graceful curve in the air like a small schoolbag that was thrown away after Friday's ninja school.
With a bang, Xiao Li, who had regained some strength, caught him steadily.
Naruto walked away gracefully amidst Neji's scolding for breaking his defense for the first time, leaving behind a hateful figure who was destined to be punished.
the other side.
Shikamaru was forced to retreat and hide by Tayuya who had activated the second cursed seal state. At the moment when he was about to have a chance to stand up, Sasuke, who was almost dead, broke out of the barrel and faced Shikamaru with a fire escape.
In desperation, Shikamaru had no choice but to retreat again.
Shikamaru retreated into the woods and Sasuke ran away without looking back. Tayuya got angry, gritted his teeth and played the flute when he was about to kill Shikamaru in one go.
The sharp sword cuts through the wind, like the wind whistling in the distance, shooting like thunder, and penetrating like lightning!
There was a muffled sound, and the grass pheasant sword was nailed heavily to the tree.
Tayuya was shocked when he saw the sword. At first glance, he thought it was Orochimaru himself. Until someone appeared in a coquettish way and landed between Shikamaru and Tayuya.
"Shikamaru, stop it."
The dead leaves on the ground were blown up and wet mud splashed. Naruto stared closely at Tayuya who entered the second cursed seal state, and said with his back to Shikamaru.
"Chouji and the others are all injured, there is no point in pursuing them any longer."
"Damn it, we've already reached this point." Shikamaru gritted his teeth and said unwillingly, "How are Choji and the others?"
"In the back, I'll be there first."
Listening to the two people chatting like no one else was watching, Tayuya couldn't hold back anymore and yelled.
"Hey! You two souls! Don't ignore me!"
"Huh?" Shikamaru looked past Naruto and towards Tayuya. He suddenly became nervous and shouted, "Naruto, come back quickly, that woman is very dangerous."
"Oh." Naruto replied perfunctorily, and glared at Tayuya across from him.
"Tch." Tayuya in the distance looked unhappy and rolled his eyes.
He waved the flute in his hand and shouted.
"Hundan, go to hell, you and me! They will all die in my hands!"
Shikamaru's pupils dilated, and the feeling of being dominated by fear came to his heart again. He suddenly remembered Tayuya's terrifying illusion and shouted again.
"Naruto, come back quickly, be careful with her flute!"
"Okay." Naruto responded, but his body didn't move. "Shikamaru, you go first."
With that said, Naruto threw something towards Tayuya. It's not very fast either, like a white stick-shaped object. Tayuya frowned and reached out to take the object.
It was a white bone spur, as warm as jade in the hand.
With just one glance, Tayuya's arrogance suddenly disappeared. Those were Kimimaro's bones. Tayuya's scalp felt numb. After thinking for half a second, she gave up thinking.
Almost out of instinct, Tayuya turned around and ran away without the slightest hesitation.
Shikamaru was stunned for a moment: "What did you throw away?"
"It's nothing." Naruto didn't have the intention to explain to Shikamaru, and left one sentence, "Wait for them here, and quickly go back after they meet. You know I can go back by myself."
Then, Naruto pulled away and chased after him.
"Hey!" Shikamaru was still a little confused, and his chakra was about to bottom out, "Naruto, don't go! Come back first!!"
"I want to bring Sasuke back!" The rest of Naruto's voice echoed in the woods.
In the forest, Shikamaru stood injured on a tree trunk, instinctively feeling that something was wrong.
But at this moment, exhaustion was welling up, and they were all wounded when they thought of Naruto's words. I was suddenly surrounded by powerlessness again, and I couldn't say anything.
Choji and Lee slowly chased after Neji and Inuzuka Kiba, who were seriously injured, and landed next to Shikamaru.
...
Naruto didn't pay attention to which direction Sasuke went, and chased Tayuya fiercely.
He couldn't defeat Uchiha Itachi, and he hoped that Uchiha Itachi would die soon every day, and now there was a shadow even when he opened the door. His pain was far greater than Denji's, so how could he stop Sasuke from taking revenge.
"Are you crazy? If you don't chase Uchiha Sasuke, you are chasing me to death!"
"Kill you!"
"Rubbish!"
Tayuya jumped and ran away in a different direction from Sasuke, with contempt and impatience written on his face.
"Then don't run."
Naruto caught up with Tayuya, and swung the Kusanagi sword in his hand and threw it out. Several giant trees were cut in half, and the fallen giant trees blocked Tayuya's path.
The latter became furious and simply stopped.
The two stood on the tree trunk facing each other with a distance of twenty meters.
In the second state of the Curse Seal, Tayuya absorbed natural energy and transformed into a sage. His appearance has changed dramatically from usual, with long hair and black skin, dark eyes, and devil-like horns on his head.
"I'll just kill you here, you piece of trash!" Tayuya took out his flute.
"Sasuke has escaped, and all five sound ninjas have been killed by me." Naruto put away the Kusanagi sword, his eyes fell on the stunned Tayuya's face, and his voice became more and more seductive.
"Orochimaru doesn't need you anymore, Tayuya."
"Impossible!" Tayuya heard that four people died in his hands, and his voice was a little panicked unconsciously, "My loyalty to Lord Orochimaru..."
"Make a price." Naruto interrupted Tayuya and said, "Sell your soul to me."
