Scourge of Naruto

Chapter 23 Rescue

Those few pure red hairs lying quietly were like the dawn in the dark night, extremely dazzling.

Seeing the hair, Ye Zi's gloomy expression eased, and he quickly picked up the hair and inspected it for a moment. After confirming that it was Kushina's hair, the murderous intent in his eyes became more intense.

Without any hesitation, he put the hair back to its original place. Fortunately, he had the habit of carrying a ninja bag with him. He took out a kunai and inserted it into the soil next to the hair. Then he got up and chased Jiuxing away. Nana's enemy ninja.

He is not so arrogant that he can save Kushina by himself. He is lucky to be able to delay the other party, so the hair must be left to point out the direction for the Konoha ninjas who come to pursue, and the most he can do is stay The next kunai makes the mark more obvious, and you can't make more obvious marks along the way, as that will slow down your progress.

Who exactly is Katsuyuki...?

After getting along for more than a year, Ye Zi couldn't figure out why an enemy ninja would dare to take such a risk and sneak into Konoha Village just to kidnap a girl who had just graduated from the ninja school. You must know that the war has only calmed down a little now. If you are not careful, , only one fuse is needed to cause the war to break out again.

The only thing that can be confirmed is that Kushina has the value to make the enemy go to war.

It took a lot of time to look for the hair along the way. Fortunately, Kushina's hair was pure red instead of black, so it would not be so difficult to find after nightfall.

Even so, Ye Zi, who had been chasing for several hours, still couldn't see anyone. If this continued, there would be no room for recovery once the other party crossed the border.

On the other side, the Kumo ninjas who had kidnapped Kushina were moving at full speed from the beginning, but Kushina did not have the same physical strength and endurance as them. When they were about to approach the border, Kushina finally couldn't hold on anymore. .

"Trash." Yun Ren, who was responsible for pulling Kushina, sneered coldly, turned his gaze to the tall man in front, and asked: "Master Jiuxiao, we are already here. I hope the people in Konoha can't catch up. Do you want to Slow down?"

The Cloud Ninja, known as Jiu Xiao, has a rough appearance, dark complexion, and a ferocious cross scar on his right eye. His expression is as cold as ice, giving him an extraordinary cold aura just by looking at his face.

Hearing his subordinate's inquiry, Jiu Xiao paused. He also thought that the Konoha ninja might not be able to catch up here. In addition, the three subordinates were tired after traveling at full speed for a long time, so he agreed to his subordinate's suggestion.

He glanced at Kushina, who had her head lowered as if she might fall down at any time, and said coldly: "Slow down, the border is coming soon, don't be careless."

"Yes." The three Kumo ninjas relaxed. The high-intensity running at full speed really made them feel tired, not to mention Kyukina, who has relatively weak physical strength and endurance. If it were not for the physical characteristics of the Uzumaki clan, it would be like this if it were replaced by others. Coming down in a hurry can be fatal.

They made this decision, but they didn't know that a lone wolf was biting behind them.

Half an hour later, Yun Ninja walked as if he was taking a walk, as if he could see that this difficult task had been completed, and his vigilance began to drop significantly. Only the eyes of Jiu Xiao, who had a cross scar, were still full of vigilance. .

Compared with Kumo Shinobi's relaxation, Kushina, whose consciousness was already somewhat blurred, was filled with despair.

"Who...save me."

In the shaking vision, there was only a dark road, and a vague figure suddenly appeared.

Black hair and black eyes blended into the night, clear and blurry. The figure trembling in the dark night, and the face that was clear and blurred at times, seemed to be very close at hand, but still looked indifferent.

"Ye...Zi."

A ray of light quietly appeared in Kushina's gray eyes, and her weak voice made her voice tremble and blurry.

"Leaves?" The cloud ninja who was pulling Kyuuki Na heard the vague whisper and couldn't help but look back at Kyuuki Na.

"Stop!"

At this time, Jiu Xiao, who was walking in the front, suddenly stopped, put one hand on the handle of the knife at his waist, and suddenly turned around and looked behind him.

Seeing Jiu Xiao's reaction, how could the other three not know that someone was catching up? Their hearts skipped a beat, and they quickly looked warily into the night behind them, only to see a figure emerging from the big trees in the forest. A leap, like a divine weapon descending from the sky, jumped to the ground not far away from oneself.

"A person? Or a kid?" Seeing that the pursuer was just a Konoha kid, the three Cloud ninjas breathed a sigh of relief. They thought they were being chased by a large number of Konoha ninjas.

"Caught up."

Ye Zi panted slightly, looked at the familiar figure in front of him, and said loudly: "Ku Yukina, are you okay?"

Different from the past, this voice was indeed filled with anxiety and impatience, rather than the previous indifference that showed no emotion towards anything.

Hearing this familiar yet unfamiliar voice, Kyuuki Nai, who thought she saw a phantom, slowly turned her head and indeed saw Ye Zi.

"Ye...Zi!"

It seemed that she had been saved when she saw Ye Zi. Jiuxingna's eyes slowly opened wide, and a gleam of joy flashed across her stained little face.

"Did you think you were going to be saved?"

The cold voice ringing in her ears ruthlessly shattered Kyukina's delusions.

Jiu Xiao crossed over Jiu Xingna, stared at Ye Zi with murderous intent on his face, and said coldly: "You have a good expression. Since you dare to chase me alone, you must be prepared to die, right?"

As he spoke, Jiu Xiao slowly pulled out the short knife from his waist, his eyes becoming extremely cold at this moment.

"You quickly pass the border with your goals. I will deal with this brat. If nothing else happens, I'm afraid there will be pursuers later."

"yes!"

Although they didn't know why Jiu Xiao deliberately cut off his rear, just to deal with a kid, they still obeyed the order and dragged Kyukina to decisively speed up their march.

"Damn it!"

Ye Zi stared at the short knife in the hand of the man in front of him with a solemn expression. His purpose was just to hold him back. If the other party chose to leave one person behind, that would be the best. However, in his imagination, just because he was a brat For this reason, the person left behind should not be the strongest person.

However, the person who stays behind is the strongest person!

The short knife that flashed with a cold edge in the moonlight passing through the woods was comparable to the death sickle to Ye Zi.

There is no doubt that all the Konoha ninjas who have become corpses died in the hands of this man. They were all killed by slitting their throats with a knife. However, there were many other minor injuries on the Konoha ninjas before they died, so it can be judged that this man The sword is not fast enough to prevent others from reacting, otherwise they would not choose to attack Konoha ninja directly from the dark.

"No odds... no, just very, very low."

Ye Zi's expression was extremely ugly. Not to mention being restrained by this person, it was already very difficult to survive in this person's hands. In this way, there was no way to prevent Jiuxingna from being taken away.

Silently taking out the kunai and holding it in his hand, Ye Zi gritted his teeth tightly, forcing his eyes not to look at Kyuuki Na who was being taken away, but to stare at the man who had begun to exude a murderous aura. The actual murderous aura made the surrounding air seem to become thicker.

Jiu Xiao seemed to have full confidence. He did not take action immediately. Instead, he looked at Ye Zi whose breath was already even. A glimmer of praise flashed in his eyes. He could catch up with the speed of coming from behind, and his breath was not messy. This was enough to prove that the person in front of him was The kid is not simple. As for age, it has never been an indicator of strength.

It's a pity that this kid who may be Konoha's genius is still too young. The price to be paid for catching up so recklessly is very heavy!

"Do you know why I want to stay?" Jiu Xiao raised his arm slightly, with murderous intent on his face, "Because I know that others are no match for you! It's a pity that you met me, just die here!" "

Just when he was about to take action, he stopped and saw a fast figure falling next to Ye Zi. Ye Zi was attracted to Jiu Xiao because of his spirit. When he found the fast figure, the other party had already arrived. beside.

Ye Zi's heartbeat quickened instantly, and when he was about to attack the figure, the other party's voice made him stop the attack.

"Where's Katsuyuki?" When Minato looked at Jiu Xiao who was full of murderous intent, his expression instantly became as solemn as Ye Zi's. As soon as he met him, he knew that the man in front of him was very strong!

"Another brat." Jiu Xiao frowned. It would have been fine if the Konoha ninjas who were chasing him were jounin, but he didn't expect that they were actually two brats who were chasing them, and they both looked very extraordinary.

Seeing Minato catching up, Ye Zi's eyes flashed with joy, pointed in one direction, and said in an unquestionable tone: "Ku Yukina is now being held hostage by three Kumo ninjas. You hurry up and chase this man. I will do it." contain."

"But..." Minato hesitated. He didn't think Ye Zi could deal with the man in front of him, and there was a high possibility that he would be killed by him.

"Goodbye, mother-in-law. If it's one minute later, once Katsuyuki is taken out of the country, it will be all over." Seeing that Minato is still acting like a mother-in-law, Ye Zi couldn't help but said angrily.

When Minato heard this, he took a deep look at Ye Zi, determination flashed across his face. He couldn't let down Ye Zi, who was risking his life, so he must save Kyukina!

Having made a decision, Minato ignored the presence of Jiu Xiao like an arrow from a bow and headed towards the direction where Katsuyuki was taken away.

"How dare you ignore me!"

A flash of anger flashed across Jiu Xiao's face. While he was surprised at Minato's speed, he flashed to Minato's side, raised his knife and brought it down with precise and vicious timing.

But in the face of this fatal knife, Minato didn't even look at it. He could only see the front. At this moment, Ye Zi stood between the two of them. He only heard a clang, and in the dark night, firelight splashed, and Ye Zi held his hand. He blocked the sword with a kunai, and Minato disappeared into the darkness without looking back.

"good very good."

Watching Minato leave here at an extremely fast speed, a murderous intention came from Jiu Xiao's mouth.

Ye Zi's arm trembled, and he felt the heavy force coming from the kunai. The short knife flashed with cold light and even stung his skin slightly.

So strong!

Facing such a strong person, I'm afraid even escaping is a luxury...

Why... I would risk my life to stay and face such a powerful enemy.
