"It's appeared! They have been hiding underground. The chakra in their bodies is so normal that it's incredible. In addition, they don't have any human characteristics outside their bodies."
Neji spoke in shock, his eyes flashing with fear, and he looked sideways at Shikamaru beside him.
"action!
! "
In the dense grass, Shikamaru lowered his voice and gave the order without any hesitation.
"Wait a minute, let me figure it out. We were attacked, right?"
Naruto didn't react for a moment.
"No, it's not us. Judging from the behavior of these entities, they are most likely targeting one of us!"
After Shikamaru explained, he continued his analysis:
"And now it can be confirmed that this person is among the girls. Of course, Sasuke who stays in the camp is not excluded!"
Naruto's heart trembled. He suddenly had a bad premonition and his heart beat twice.
Everyone set off on their way back.
Full speed ahead.
Naruto's face was solemn, he didn't want to waste another second, he just wanted to get back to Hinata as soon as possible.
The other Xiaoqiang also had a general understanding of this unexpected incident.
After listening to the conversation between Shikamaru and Neji, Kiba was sweating on his forehead while following the team. With a lucky mentality, he comforted Naruto and said:
"Naruto, relax, with our current strength, even if we meet former members of the Akatsuki organization, we are not without the strength to fight!"
Naruto heard the sound, just nodded, and then started on his way seriously.
And just when everyone was about to rush back to the camp.
Neji stopped and said in a deep voice:
"Something's wrong!
! "
Camp.
Outside the boys' tent, when weird people appeared one after another, Zuosuke had already put on his pure white robe, put on his Kusanagi sword and ninja bag, walked out of the tent slowly, and looked coldly at the backs of the weird people.
No matter what kind of monster he is.
Zuosuke is now full of confidence and is sure to solve them all in one go.
Just when Zuosuke was about to take action.
A Konoha Jonin team suddenly appeared from the sky and landed steadily in front of Zuosuke.
"Hey, genin, stay nearby and watch for now, and then find an opportunity to take your friends out of here!"
Shiranui Genma, Konoha's special jounin, wearing a black turban and holding a thousand books in his mouth, glanced at Zuosuke.
The jounin who followed him were Yamashiro Aoba and Tamashiri Dou, both of whom were old faces among Konoha's special jounin.
Since the last disaster that broke out in the Forest of Death, Tsunade, in order to ensure that this happened again, directly asked Konoha's middle jounin to protect the genin candidates at close range in batches.
And just now.
Shiranui Genma happened to be leading a team to patrol the area and saw this scene.
"These guys are weird!"
The half-drawn Kusanagi sword behind Zuosuke's back was stuffed back by him, and he reminded these Konoha Jonin in a cold voice.
Since someone wants to take action first.
Zuosuke was not in a hurry.
And these Konoha jounin should have some means to appear here quietly.
"It's weird? Haha, it doesn't matter, we will take action!"
Shiranui Genma was a little dissatisfied with Zuosuke's cold personality. After speaking in a deep voice, he immediately launched a surprise attack on the weirdos who had surrounded the girl's tent.
The other two Konoha Special Jounin followed, appearing to be in perfect agreement.
Zuosuke just glanced at their consistent formation and knew that these three guys were veterans among ninjas.
"drink!
! "
Shiranui Genma jumped to a high altitude, holding sixteen sharp senbons between his fingers, and suddenly fell towards the backs of those weirdos.
the other side.
Yamashiro Aoye teleported to the branch of a tree, stood upright, and formed seals with his hands.
instantly.
A lot
The crow fluttered from the dark forest and landed in front of the group of weirdos.
Swish swish——
Sixteen thousand sticks were accurately inserted into the back of each monster's neck, and the crow launched pecking and claw machines in front of them to attract their attention.
Tenten, Hinata, Ino, Sakura and others who had just been frightened had already got into the tent again.
"Go to hell!
! "
After the two companions launched an attack, Bingzu Leitong, who was dormant, suddenly summoned a huge black knife and fell from a high altitude, hitting the monsters like a thunderbolt with precision.
Boom——
The ground shook.
There was a roar.
While Shiranui Genma was attacking from a distance, Yamashiro Aoba launched a crow summoning technique to attract hatred, and then gave a fatal blow to him with the same attack as Amaizu Raid.
The three Konoha Jonin cooperated perfectly.
And after the smoke and dust dissipated.
The large number of crows that had just appeared also left. They were like hired workers in the mountain city Aoba. After their work was done, they naturally went back.
Bing Zu Lei stood up from the huge hole he had made. The corners of his mouth slowly turned up, and the black knife in his hand was piercing the abdomen of a weirdo who was pressed to the ground below.
The monster's eyes were closed tightly, his limbs were twisted, and there was no breath of life, as if he had been shocked to death by the huge impact.
"This black knife of mine has been smeared with countless poisons, but anyone cut by it will not be able to survive for more than two hours!"
He also despised the weirdo who was killed by him in the pit.
Kick-kick——
The next moment.
In the dissipating smoke, there were bursts of sharp, tooth-aching squeaking sounds.
On the tree.
Shiranui Genma and Yamashiro Aoba saw clearly the results of their attack.
Except for the weirdo who was killed by the same force and fell into the pothole, the other weirdos stood around the pothole, all unscathed.
"Run away!
! "
Seeing that the situation was not good, Shiranui Genma immediately shouted loudly.
Zhizhizhi——
The strange sound sounded again.
After listening to the warning from his teammates, he suddenly looked back and looked down at the weirdo under him.
At this moment.
The weirdo had already opened its non-human eyes, which were emotionless and stared at the peduncle above it. Then, a cold light suddenly flashed across its limbs.
Poof——
Six slender sharp blades shot out from the joints of the weirdo's hands and feet from bottom to top, piercing through Bingzudu, who had no time to react.
"Forehead……"
His feet were trembling violently, and the punctured wound caused severe pain and blood overflowed, making him dare not move at will.
And just then.
The other weirdos also moved, their hands stretched instantly. In just one breath, Yamashiro Aoba and Shiranui Genma were grabbed by the neck and pulled from the tree.
The two special Jounin of Konoha didn't even have time to release their Substitute Technique before they were thrown heavily to the ground, making two holes.
"It's really not that simple!"
After watching this scene, Zuosuke quietly opened the three Magatama Sharingan, drew the Kusanagi sword from behind, and spoke coldly.
The Jounin team in Konoha instantly lost their combat effectiveness. The opponent that came this time exceeded Zuosuke's expectations.
Just when these weirdos were about to execute the members of the Konoha Jonin team, sparse footsteps came from the forest.
"Rasengan!"
Naruto roared angrily, fell from the sky, and blasted at a weirdo who was about to attack the Jounin of Konoha.
boom--
There was a loud noise.
Immediately afterwards.
Shikamaru, Neji, Choji, Lee, Kiba, Shino, and a large number of Naruto's shadow clones immediately joined the battle.
"Come on!"
Countless Narutos were more annoying than the crows summoned by Aoba from the mountain city before. They formed a team in twos and threes to kill these crows.
A group of weirdos surrounded and started to fight.
Bang bang bang——
The two sides started fighting.
After Naruto's shadow clone created a chaotic scene, Shikamaru and others did not join the battle, but took the lead in rescuing the Konoha Jonin who were subdued by the monster one by one.
"Teacher, are you okay?"
Shikamaru looked at Minato, who was bleeding from wounds all over his body and gasping for breath, and spoke worriedly.
They dragged the wounded to a distant tree.
While asking, he was also checking the injuries of the wounded.
"I was careless...I didn't move away. You don't have to worry about me. Run away!"
Bingzu Leitong vomited a mouthful of blood, his face turned pale, and before he was about to lose consciousness, he did not forget to explain forcefully.
Shikamaru:"……"
He also took out the medical ninjutsu scroll directly from his ninja tool bag and arranged it for the Konoha jounin.
After all, he is the jounin of his own village.
Loss of one.
That was also a significant loss.
The remaining two Konoha jounin, Shiranui Genma and Yamashiro Aoba, were slightly injured, but the fall caused by the strange man dragging them down from a high altitude also caused fractures and internal injuries.
Kiba and Shino were not shy about sharing their medical ninjutsu scrolls.
Face powerful enemies.
Naturally, we must retain our own combat power as much as possible.
"Where's Naruto's true form?"
While Shikamaru was healing and activating the foot mines, he looked up and looked around. Among the seemingly endless streams of Naruto's shadow clones, he couldn't find which one was the original one.
At this time, the girl's tent was on the side.
"Find a chance to leave here!" Tiantian took the other girls and left through the zipper door on the side.
But as soon as you go out.
Behind the tent, there was still a row of weird people standing ready.
"Looks like we have to force our way in!"
Ino gritted her teeth and suddenly remembered Bai Yu's instructions to her last night.
In the event of an accident...
she knows.
Bai Yu wanted to tell her at that time that she must take care of herself, but Bai Yu didn't say it.
so.
Bai Yu also knows his choice. If a crisis arises by default, he can choose to advance or retreat together with his partners!
Just when the four girls were about to force a breakout.
"Hinata, here I come!"
Naruto's true form fell from the sky.
Bang bang bang——
As Naruto landed, he released countless shadow clones in an instant, blocking his body from the surrounding monsters.
"Naruto!"
Hinata walked forward quickly and came to Naruto.
"Are you OK?"
Naruto held Hinata's hands and carefully looked at the other person's body up and down, fearing that the other person would be injured.
"I-I'm fine, Naruto-kun, let's get out of here first!"
Hinata blushed, looking at the chaotic scene, and said.
"Ino, Tenten, Sakura, Shikamaru and the others are in front of the tent. Let's go over and meet them!"
Naruto nodded to Hinata and immediately told the girls about the current situation.
"Um!"
Ino and the others immediately nodded and followed Naruto around the huge tent.
Just when Naruto led the team to meet up with Shikamaru and others.
Hinata, who followed Naruto all the way and opened her Byakugan to observe the situation, felt her heart sink.
Naruto's shadow clones were rapidly decreasing.
The strength of both sides.
It doesn't seem to be on the same level.
also.
The most important thing that shocked Hinata was that there were many weirdos approaching here a thousand meters away and forming a siege.
And in the middle of that group of people.
A strange man held a little girl figure that Hinata was very familiar with in one hand.
"Hanabi!"
Hinata stopped. On the other side, Neji, who was also observing the battle, saw the scene a thousand meters away and exclaimed at the same time as Hinata.
"What's wrong? Hinata?"
Naruto looked back at Hinata who suddenly stopped. Ino and others also stopped and surrounded Hinata.
"Naruto, my sister, Hinata Hanabi, was captured by these people!"
Hinata responded with a cry.
Her open white eyes sometimes opened and sometimes closed under the huge fluctuation of emotions.
Naruto also shuddered, remembering Shikamaru's previous inference.
This group of weirdos was not targeting a group of them, but just one of them.
Naruto looked at Hinata, held Hinata's hand tightly, and said solemnly: "I will never let anyone take you away from me! Absolutely not!"
"Naruto..." Before Hinata could react, she was pulled by Naruto and continued to run forward.
"What exactly is going on?"
Ino asked as he ran.
the other side.
After listening to Neji's story, Shikamaru also felt numb. He looked in the direction of the girls' tent and said in a deep voice: "The person they want to arrest is Hinata!"
Because Neji is by his side, but these weirdos are not interested in Neji at all.
"Shikamaru! Have you thought of a solution?"
At this time, Naruto, with Hinata and others, successfully reunited with Shikamaru and others.
Looking at the Konoha Jonin lying on the ground.
Ino, Tenten, Sakura and other girls took the initiative to take care of them on behalf of the boys.
Hinata, who was suffering from huge mood swings and low in energy, was confused and wanted to join the girl's team, but was stopped by Naruto and Shikamaru.
At this time, Hinata looked at Neji who was standing aside and asked eagerly: "Brother Neji, you saw it too, right? The girl caught by them is Hanabi."
[In view of the general environment,
Neji said in a deep voice: "Hinata, calm down, we still have a chance now!"
Now that I know that the other party wants to capture Hinata.
So as long as Hinata is still safe with them, they still have a chance to save Hanabi!
Shikamaru looked around, looked at the Twelve Xiaoqiang, then looked at the Konoha Jonin who was being taken care of by Ino and other girls, and asked:
"Naruto, how long can your shadow clone last?"
Naruto calmed down, felt his own situation, gritted his teeth and endured the pain from the shadow clone that he had long been accustomed to, and said in a deep voice:
"If it is consumed at this rate, the existing shadow clone can only last for two minutes, but I can continue to release it."
Shikamaru shook his head and said:
"Preserve your chakra and stamina first. There are still a lot of weirdos like this outside. I need you to create another opportunity like this for us when the weirdos outside take action!"
"Ang, got it!"
Naruto made a decision in his mind.
anyway.
He couldn't let anything happen to Hinata.
"What kind of monster is this?" Ino asked in a deep voice.
Shikamaru shook his head.
Dingci said weakly: "Could it be that this is the Bai Zetsu that Bai Yu has been cleaning up for the ninja world?"
Shikamaru objected:
"According to Bai Yu's explanation, Bai Jue is a humanoid plant anthropomorphic creature, and it is a monster without any life characteristics."
Said.
Shikamaru squatted down, touched the fingers of his hands symmetrically, forming an arch gesture, and his brain entered a state of rapid thinking.
"The situation is clear now."
"Those monsters have captured Hinata Hanabi, the second young lady of the Hyuga clan."
"They came to the Death Forest and are indifferent to Neji around us. There is only one possibility."
"Their ultimate goal is to capture the sisters Hinata and Hanabi.
"
"And if they capture Hanabi, they must have alarmed Konoha."
"These monsters are very powerful. We cannot fight them to the death right now. As long as we protect Hinata and return to Konoha, or return along the way and meet Konoha's reinforcements on the way, we will have a chance to save Hinata and rescue Hanabi."
After Shikamaru finished thinking, he quickly analyzed the current situation and told his friends around him.
