Under the Bamboo Forest of Naruto

In a cave in the Kingdom of Yu, Riyu and a few others took the captured Kirigakure jounin to temporarily stay here.

Yamanaka Haiichi's hand was placed on the head of the Kirigakure Jonin who was tied into a rice dumpling with leaves of grass. Haiichi's eyes were closed tightly and his expression was serious. Riuyu knew that he was using the Yamanaka clan's secret technique "Ninja Technique: Mind Reading Technique"

, this technique can directly read the other party's thoughts without using any device.

The art of ninja and mind-reading is an extremely convenient secret art for torture. It was with this unique skill that Yamanaka Haiichi wrote his legend in the intelligence community.

Slowly, Yamanaka Haiichi frowned, and the three people on the side, Liuyu and others, looked at Haiichi's furrowed brows and felt something bad.

"Trouble!" Finally, Haiyi opened his eyes and exited from the mind-reading state. But the first words he said after opening his eyes made Liu Yu and others feel something was wrong. "Trouble?"

Which aspect?

Ignoring the doubts of several people, Haiyi took out a blank scroll and a pen and began to write on the scroll using secret words. After writing, he sealed the scroll with a seal.

"Yuhi Kurenai, Kusanagi Ryūha. Now I order you two to send this confidential document back to the camp as quickly as possible. Remember, you must hand it over to Lord Orochimaru personally." Yamanaka Haiichi solemnly said. This was Ryūha again.

It was the first time that He Hong saw Hai Yi looking so serious.

"Yes, I promise to complete the mission." Liuyu took the scroll and Hong replied at the same time. Liuyu didn't ask about the contents of the secret letter. She knew that these were not matters that she should care about based on her current status. She only needed to complete her duties.

.

"What will you do next, Teacher Haiyi and Asuma?" Hong asked curiously.

"Asuma and I will attack Kirigakure's patrol team here at the right time and harass the enemy. At the same time, we will verify some of my conjectures," Haiyi replied, but when talking about some of his conjectures,

, a trace of seriousness flashed across his face again.

"Red, don't worry! In this war, I will definitely make my name known, just like the Sannin. From now on, when people from other villages perform missions, they will be so scared that they have to give up as soon as they see me.

Mission." Asuma didn't pay attention to Yamanaka Haiichi's solemnity, but said yyy to the side. Liuyu overlapped Asuma and Uchiha Obito at this moment.

.......

Below their feet, trees continued to sweep backwards, and Ryūha and Kurenai were rushing back to the Konoha camp as fast as they could.

Haiyi's serious expression lingered in front of Liu Yu's eyes, as if it foreshadowed something bad that would happen. Shaking his head, Liu Yu suppressed the irritability in his heart, stopped, calmed down, and calmed down the recluse.

The range of perception is expanded again.

The hidden perception ability can reach the maximum range when the user is still and concentrated. Although the surrounding situation can also be sensed while moving, the accuracy and range will be greatly reduced. Therefore, every time Liuyu walks a certain distance, he will stop and sense it carefully.

surrounding situation.

Liu Yu frowned. With her expanded perception, she could sense eight unfamiliar chakras behind her, heading in their direction.

"Red, let's change the direction." Liuyu said to Hong. It's not yet known whether the person behind is an enemy or a friend, but the probability of being an enemy should be higher, so at this time, the route should be changed and safety measures should be taken.

"Yeah!" Hong had no objection. At this time, he should trust Liu Yu's perception ability. The two began to change their route, preparing to take a long way back to the camp.

.....

"Stop!" followed the order of the person in front.

After a few swishing sounds, the seven Kirigakure ninjas stopped around the leader and subconsciously guarded their surroundings. They followed orders and prohibitions, and it was obvious that this was an elite small force from Kirigakure Village.

I saw the leader wearing a Kirigakure Jōnin vest uniform, with an indifferent face, and ornaments similar to magic charms hung on both ears. Only one left eye was exposed, and the right eye was covered by a black eyepatch. If Liu Yu were here

If you do, you will definitely recognize who this person is. He is the Kirigakure elite Jonin - 'Ao' who accompanied the Mizukage to the Five Kage Conference during the Five Kage Conference and served as the captain of the Sensing Force during the Fourth Ninja War.

"Byakugan!" I saw Qing forming a seal with one hand, veins popping up around his right eye, and his vision transcended the immediate area and extended into the distance. Qing stood on the tree, looking at the direction in which Liu Yu and Hong were going, and murmured: "

It was actually discovered.”

"Humph!" Qing sneered twice.

"But can you run away?" Qing waved his hand for his subordinates to follow, and then changed direction and chased after Liuyu and the others.

.......

"It's troublesome!" Liuyu also said the same words that Yamanaka Haiichi said not long ago. After she and Kurenai changed directions and continued walking for a while, Liuyu stopped again to sense. But she found the group of people she had discovered before.

People actually followed me. It seemed like they were targeting me. They were enemies, not friends, so we were in trouble now!

Liuyu was now in a tangle. Judging from the speed comparison between the two sides, it was estimated that she and Kurenai would be overtaken by the opponent before they reached the Konoha camp, which meant that blindly escaping would not work.

Ryūha's hard power at this moment should be above that of a chuunin, but less than a jounin. According to Konoha's ninja strength, he can be classified as a special jounin. With his own blood inheritance bonus, the three or two ordinary chunin are not Ryūha.

His opponents are just like the two Iwagakure ninjas he defeated in Kusagakure Village last time. But facing ordinary jounin is more troublesome, but with the bonus of blood inheritance, Liuyu is confident that he can win one-on-one.

In this state, pay a small price to kill the opponent.

The last time I killed an unknown number of Kusugakure and Iwagakure ninjas in Kusugakure Village, it was entirely due to my own desperate physical overdraft style and the enemy's lack of understanding of Bamboo Release. It can be said to be a miracle. But I think it was a miracle.

It can be said to be very difficult to replicate this miracle again in a head-to-head confrontation.

Analyzing the composition of the enemy's pursuers, there must be at least 2 jounin among the 8 people. In other words, the chance of winning if they stay for a head-on confrontation is very small, and at this moment, Kurenai is simply a burden to Ryūha.

Liu Yu was in a dilemma at this moment. If she was alone, Liu Yu was confident that she could escape from the other side by hiding and lurking in the surrounding woods. As long as the opponent was not a ninja with white eyes, Liu Yu would have a near tenth level of confidence in successfully escaping.

.Even if there is Ao equipped with Byakugan on the opposite side, Ryūha is not too worried. In the hidden state, her Byakugan can only be detected within a certain range when used by a powerful person. And now Kirigakure's Ao has obtained

The white eyes don't last long, so don't worry too much. You can use seclusion to lurk in the woods. Although your movement speed will be greatly reduced, as long as you can escape successfully.

But now there is Kurenai accompanying him. Riuyu has the means to escape, but that does not mean that Kurenai also has the means to escape. If the two of them escape separately, the Kirigakure ninjas who find that they have lost their target will definitely put their pursuit target on Kurenai.

When Hong dies, it is impossible to say that he will actually see the blackened Asuma appear.

What should I do? Myself? Still red?

Liuyu didn't know what to choose. After experiencing the death of her father and others, Liuyu cherished the bonds around her even more. Although she always put revenge first in her heart, she also didn't want to become a person dominated by hatred.

Regardless of whether it was his past life or this life, Liu Yu was an emotional person.

At this time, Liuyu thought of what he once said when talking about his dream with his father, "Becoming a powerful ninja can protect the people I care about and the people who care about me." But Hong is the person he cares about.

? Liuyu doesn’t know.

A person will encounter many choices in this life, some are made willingly, some are involuntarily, some are helpless, and some are unwilling to remember. This time, Liuyu's choice will affect her life.

After thinking about it for a while, Liu Yu finally made up his mind.

"Red, we..." Before Liu Yu could finish her words,

"They are a group of kind-hearted children just like you!" This sentence suddenly echoed in Liuyu's heart, followed by Kushina's gentle face.

"Kind?"

.....

"What's wrong? Liu Yu, what happened?" Hong on the other side felt that Liu Yu was a little strange at this moment.

Taking a deep breath and calming down, Liu Yu spoke again: "Hong, we are being targeted. There are probably sentient ninjas on the other side. It seems that we cannot escape safely. Now I will hand the scroll to you.

You take the scroll and run away quickly, I will stay and stop the other side to buy time for you to escape." After saying that, Liu Yu took out the scroll and threw it to Hong.

Hong was obviously a little confused. After taking the scroll thrown by Liu Yu in a daze, he realized what was going on. "But Liu Yu, you..." Hong didn't know what to say.

"It's okay, there aren't many people on the other side, I can handle it. Even if I can't defeat you then, I can still escape with Escape, so don't worry about me. If you are really worried about me, go back to the camp quickly to find reinforcements.

Follow me!" Liu Yu didn't know why he changed his mind. He and Hong had only known each other for a few months, but now he actually offered to help Hong fend off the pursuers.

"But..." Hong wanted to say something else.

"There's nothing wrong with it. This is the best way at the moment. Only in this way can both of us survive." Liu Yu's voice rose two points and became serious.

"If you are worried about me, just like what I just said, hurry back to the camp to find reinforcements." Liu Yu's words then became a little softer.

"Yes! I know, I will definitely come back." Seeing the firmness on Liu Yu's face, Hong assured her. Hong knew that she could no longer convince Liu Yu, and this was indeed what allowed both of them to live.

The best way.

.....

Looking at Hong's retreating back, Liu Yu smiled bitterly: "Okay, now it's time to get busy."

Since he decided to buy time for Kurenai, he couldn't hide through hiding all the time, and he would have to fight the Kirigakure ninjas who were pursuing him.

Liuyu shuttled through the trees through the concealment, moved his position closer to Kirigakure's pursuers, and began to set up traps. The place where he had just used the concealment and Kurenai separated would definitely be noticed by the sensing ninja on the opposite side.

Kirigakure's pursuers will definitely be more vigilant when approaching that area. Therefore, the traps must be arranged a little ahead to prevent the traps from becoming ineffective.

Liu Yu expected that the trap would kill the Kirigakure-sensing ninjas on the opposite side in one wave. In this case, he would not have to worry about their pursuit again, and he could use the Hidden Escape to leave directly. However, as the Kirigakure pursuers got closer and closer,

Liu Yu began to feel uneasy, this feeling...
