Chapter 24 Are you looking for me?

The black flames that could not be extinguished formed a continuous sheet, burning the three-tailed Isobutsu, and Uchiha Itachi began to feel a stinging sensation in his right eye after releasing a large amount of [Amaterasu].

If Loquat Juzo hadn't saved him just now, the tailed beast jade would have fallen directly on him, which also allowed Itachi to use his true strength.

Goju Yagura, who completely transformed into a tailed beast, was instantly severely injured by Amaterasu and rolled on the ground. Even using water escape could not extinguish the black flames, but instead increased its fierce power.

"Damn, what the hell is this?"

Gotachibana Yagura, who was deep inside Sanbi Isotsu's body, didn't understand this technique at all, but he also felt the crisis.

The last enemy has not been dealt with yet, and this time the enemy has inflicted heavy losses on Isofu. If he continues, he will be in danger.

With a roar, chakra appeared on the surface of Isobutsu, instantly pushing out countless black flames. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Goju Yagura instantly restored his original shape and evacuated at a high speed.

Itachi, whose eyes were full of bloodshot eyes, also covered his right eye and staggered a bit. At this time, his eyes had reached their limit, and he no longer had the ability to pursue the fleeing Goju Yagura.

We need to evacuate quickly, otherwise when the fog ninjas react, they won't be able to leave!

Itachi instantly analyzed the current situation in his mind, closed his right eye tightly, relied on his left eye to move, and instantly came to Loquat Juzo to pick him up.

The two spectators at different locations, Pain, Konan, and Obito, have disappeared.

They will be waiting for him on Goju Yagura's return route, and the fate of the other party has been determined.

…

On another high ground, the white eyes of Shengshu's forehead were closed, and the 360-degree viewing angle made him enjoy the view.

I don’t know why, or it’s that the Byakugan itself has two visions, one is the normal vision, and the other is the white negative chakra vision.

He vaguely remembered that in the infinite Tsukuyomi world, Ningji had peeked at the color of girls' underwear.

The veins on his forehead were smoothed away, leaving only a red vertical line. Naoki stood up and said, "It's time to retreat, the Mist Ninja will be here soon."

Quan silently lowered his head and followed the rope tree, and their figures quickly disappeared on the island.

As for the Mist Ninja, the sensing ninjas among them, as soon as they felt that the battlefield here had subsided, they came here with the elite jounin.

This is their home field. Whether the Fourth Mizukage succeeds or fails, they must eliminate the existence that threatens the safety of the village.

However, the battlefield presented in front of them shocked them.

The wreckage of giant trees and tangled vines everywhere, a tragic situation that even the biggest storm on the sea could not cause, was now displayed in front of them.

"Quickly, search for Mizukage-sama!"

"If you encounter an enemy, send a signal immediately!"

Following the order from the leading ninja, groups of fog ninjas disappeared everywhere and began to search everywhere.

Shocking traces of battles abounded, and the traces of Amaterasu's burning made it impossible for them to tell what level of fire escape it was.

The passage cleared by the Tailed Beast Jade was like a big snake passing straight through, crushing everything.

…

In a corner of the forest, Juzo the Loquat on Itachi's back coughed violently and whispered.

"Put me down!"

Itachi quickly fell down and placed it against the tree, checking Loquat Juuzang's injuries, and soon his heart sank.

"you're awake?"

"Ahem, no need to save me."

Itachi was silent. The other party saved him once, resisted a tail beast jade, and suffered heavy injuries. The injury was no longer something he could treat.

Instead, Loquat Juuzang twitched the corner of his mouth, revealing his shark teeth, looking free and easy. He looked at the sky and said, "Isn't this the fate of ninjas? There is nothing to be sad about."

"We are trained as weapons, so no matter where we die, there will be no accidents."

"On the contrary, I am glad that I can die on the land of the Kingdom of Water instead of somewhere else."

Even as ninjas and weapons, it is a blessing for them to be able to choose the place of death they want.

Itachi understood very well, because it was difficult for him to die in the Fire Country, and he didn't know where he would be buried.

To this end, he nodded, stood up and stood in front of Loquat Juuzang, looking at the other person's eyes that gradually expanded, and kept looking at the sky until he completely lost his life.

I don’t know what this senior is pursuing.

After bowing his head in silence for three seconds, Itachi suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction he came from, thinking to himself.

"So fast?"

The time left was no longer enough for him to make a grave for Loquat Juuzang. He took one last look at the senior, brushed it over his face, closed his eyes, and disappeared into the wind.

After a while, Sushu and Izumi came here. They looked at Loquat Juzo who was leaning against the corner of the big tree and losing his breath, but there was no sign of Itachi.

The rope tree waved his hand, and the huge tree rose from the ground, turned into a wooden coffin, and collected Loquat Juuzang in it. He said, "It seems that Itachi thought we were mist ninjas."

With a slight press of the palm, the wooden coffin was pulled into the ground by the vines, and the big tree became the tombstone of Loquat Juzo.

As for the decapitating sword stuck diagonally on the ground, Rope Tree had no interest in it. No matter its shape or function, it was of no use.

The two of them left without hesitation, and a pitcher plant emerged from the big tree, looking at the slightly traced ground.

Bai Jue clicked his tongue and said: "It's really clean, but I still have to collect the bodies. The organization's information cannot be leaked."

As Bai Jue merged into the big tree and the loquat shizang underground, the body disappeared into the coffin, becoming an empty coffin.

…

Three days later, the country of bears.

Shengshu and Quan arrived. They lost their way on the sea for a while before returning.

However, this time the rope tree made a damper inside the hull, a huge sphere, which prevented the hull from shaking, and the two of them did not get seasick.

Not long after entering the Bear Country, a black shadow came out of the forest and was caught by the rope tree.

Hiss~

The scroll with some mucus on it was spat out, causing Sushu to raise his eyebrows.

"Teacher's contact?"

"It seems that they already know that I have appeared here."

"Not surprised!"

Let go of the little snake in your hand, open the scroll in your hand, and read the information on it.

"Want to see me?"

"as well as……"

Whoosh!

Several kunai burst out, with a detonating talisman hanging from the tail, making it a sure kill.

boom!

A fierce explosion sounded, setting off billowing smoke, and several figures wearing ANBU costumes, like shadows, quickly disappeared into the smoke with kunai in their hands.

"No?"

"Not here!"

Phew~

The strong wind swept down from above, and the strong air current blew away the smoke and dust. The rope tree hugging the spring had huge chakra wings flapping behind it.

"Are you looking for me?"
