Shock, fear, confusion and other emotions quickly rushed into Xie Mao's heart, but these emotions could not stop Xie Mao. He rolled sideways to avoid the attack at the moment of inspiration warning.

If he hadn't brought a ninja tool with him, he could even fight back while rolling. But now that he was unarmed and the two standing puppets were damaged, Xie Mao chose the window next to him the moment he hit the ground.

At the same time, he opened his mouth to shout.

This is Sunagakure Village, and his home is right next to the street. As long as he seizes the opportunity to call for help or escape from the house, his attacker will definitely stop!

And as long as the killer hesitates and doesn't run away immediately, the ninjas gathered nearby are likely to capture him alive!

Jiao Rong, who felt that he was hiding himself well, was inevitably stunned after the sneak attack failed. He thought he could kill him with one blow, but the knife drew blood, but this red-haired kid was able to react the moment he drew the knife.

, even the ninjas of the Hyuga clan are not so sharp.

But as a special Jonin who was good at assassination, Kaku Rong had more than one method. He quickly bit the handle of the knife with his mouth, and then quickly formed a seal on Xie Mao's back.

Xie Mao, who had a second perspective, clearly saw the scene behind him. Fearing that it was a killing ninjutsu, he quickly turned and rolled again, kicking his legs on the ground to be ejected.

Continuous displacement can increase the possibility of evading Ninjutsu. At the same time, Xie Mao's cry for help will soon rush out of his throat.

Jiao Rong, who had a beard, a high hairline, deep facial features, and slightly dark skin, ignored Xie Mao who changed his position. His hands that were forming seals quickly stopped, and his narrow eyes immediately became deep and dark, and Xie Mao

Mao is easy to match.

Illusion: The Art of Silent Sound!

"save-"

After Xie Mao shouted "Help" in full, he realized that he had only shouted half of the sound. He quickly tried to cough, but his throat did not vibrate at all and he did not make any sound.

He has lost the ability to speak!

The Qingtong hidden in Xie Mao's body immediately released chakra under pressure, but Jiao Rong had already rushed at him again with the knife, and the bright sword light stabbed Xie Mao's neck.

Jiao Rong was dressed in black, blocking Xie Mao's entire field of vision. The knife was so fast that even if he had the inspiration to warn Xie Mao, he would not have time to dodge.

At the most critical moment, Xie Mao's chakra quickly flowed into his hand, and he chose the most confident chakra line.

Poof!

The dagger stabbed hard into Xie Mao's abdomen, and blood spurted out, falling on Jiao Rong's dissatisfied face.

He aimed his hand at Xie Mao's neck, but it was pulled down by the chakra line to his abdomen, and he was unable to kill him with one blow.

Jiao Rong glanced at the chakra line that Xie Mao was pulling down with all his strength, and a mocking smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Why did he choose this time to assassinate?

He is just a special jounin. It is actually very difficult to assassinate a genius with chunin strength in someone else's base camp. As long as the person being assassinated can grasp a chance of escape, he can be full of power.

All bets are lost.

But luckily, Xie Mao, who had just returned from his mission, was not only seriously injured, but also lost his strongest puppet. It can be said that Xie Mao's strength has now reached its lowest point. Correspondingly, Jiao Rong's assassination success rate has been greatly improved.

.

Just like now, Xie Mao obviously wanted to pull the knife to the side, but because he was not strong enough after being seriously injured, he was forced to use both hands to pull downwards, and had to use his abdomen to catch the knife.

Looking at the red-haired boy in front of him who was gritting his teeth and persisting, Jiao Rong twisted the handle of the knife and lifted it hard towards Xie Mao's heart. The pain caused Xie Mao's throat to make a painful "ho ho" sound.

Huh? Jiao Rong opened his eyes in surprise.

After being hit by the [Silent Sound Jutsu], this guy shouldn't be able to make any sound with his throat. How did he break the illusion!?

Xie Mao on the opposite side seemed to realize this, and immediately opened his mouth to shout, but Jiao Rong took a step faster, and used his free right hand to grab Xie Mao's throat, suffocating the sound that was about to come out.

"I originally wanted to see how long you could fight against my knife, but now I can only kill you directly."

Jiao Ronglue said with a regretful tone, but he was very happy in his heart.

Fortunately, this kid didn't have enough fighting experience and didn't fight back when I pulled away my hand. I don't know how he solved the illusion... Jiao Rong thought about it in his heart, but saw the corner of Xie Mao's mouth raised a little, and he felt

The unlucky Jiao Rong immediately used his strength and tried to break Xie Mao's neck.

But Jiao Rong, who had exerted great force, was shocked to find that his right hand didn't move at all, as if the arm was no longer his.

When did I fall under the illusion!? The information didn't say that he was good at illusion... Jiao Rong opened his eyes wide in horror, watching like an audience as his right hand actually let go with a little trembling.

At this time, Jiao Rong discovered that there was a strange coldness in his arm, and this coldness took away his control of the arm!

It’s not like a genjutsu, what kind of art is this!?

Jiao Rong gritted his teeth in fear and was about to draw his knife and retreat. He could no longer control his right arm, but he could use his body to move it, and maybe he could recover without Xie Mao.

But as soon as Jiao Rong took a step back, he found that his body was pulled by his left arm, and his left arm was pulled by Xie Mao's chakra line.

Isn’t the knife connected to his chakra line? When did it become my hand!?

Before Jiao Rong could figure it out in a short time, he felt the coldness in his right arm flowing down his arm to his head and torso. There seemed to be a will in his body that did not belong to him!

"No!"

Jiao Rong roared and mobilized the chakra in his body, but the chakra kept disappearing as if it had been eaten, and the cold feeling in his body became stronger and stronger.

Jiao Rong wanted to raise his foot and kick Xie Mao away, hit Xie Mao unconscious with his headbutt, and use all methods to get rid of Xie Mao, but his body was only left with a faint trembling and spasmodic pain.

"Ha~" Xie Mao grinned, and blood immediately poured into his mouth and slid down the corner of his mouth, flowing all the way through his pinched neck.

He made the right bet.

After being pierced through the abdomen by the rising knife, in addition to the most direct and obvious severe pain, Xie Mao also felt that his gastric juices were leaking out. The strong corrosive pain constantly tortured his nerves. Together with the blood loss, Xie Mao quickly felt

Mao Tuo Li.

It was already very difficult just to maintain the chakra line. Xie Mao knew that he could no longer wrestle with the opponent. If he continued, he would only be pierced through the heart in two seconds. In addition, the chakra was attached to the blade, and Qingtong borrowed it.

This possession is easily detected by the other party.

Therefore, Xie Mao had to take a different approach and deliberately revealed the information that he had broken off the illusion and was able to speak again, thereby forcing his opponent to cover his mouth or choke his neck.

As long as there is direct physical contact, Qingtong's possession will be very hidden. Therefore, the other party will not notice the problem until he really wants to strangle Xie Mao to death.

Qingtong's possession effect was even better than Xie Mao thought. Even though she did not usurp the opponent's body due to poor willpower, she was able to resist the opponent from within her body.

In such a confrontation, Xie Mao realized that Qingtong's possession and usurpation were more complicated than imagined. It was necessary to comprehensively consider the opponent's will, chakra, secret skills, physical fitness, etc. It was not as simple as the system explained.

.

Will is only the most critical factor, not the whole factor. If the enemy's chakra and physical fitness are very weak, then no matter how strong the will is, it will not be able to withstand the possession of Qingtong - of course, such an enemy Qingtong can also fight directly.

Fight.

Now Xie Mao's will is in direct conflict with Jiao Rong's will, and he is proficient in assassination. However, Jiao Rong, who has no obvious advantage in terms of chakra, physical fitness, etc., cannot get rid of Qingtong in a short period of time. His whole body can only tremble, unable to

control.

His whole body was exhausted... Xie Mao stared at his opponent closely, his determined eyes clearly reflecting the opponent's fearful expression.

"you!"

Jiao Rong gritted his teeth in fear. He knew exactly what Xie Mao was going to do, and quickly threatened: "Stop! Otherwise my companions will kill that guy!"

Behind Xie Mao, the skinny man who was extremely panicked and frightened heard this, tremblingly pulled out a knife and put it against the old housekeeper's neck.

In order to ensure that the old housekeeper and Xie Mao would not notice any abnormality, Jiao Rong did not use shadow clones and transformation techniques to disguise himself as a man selling vegetables. Instead, he used coercion, inducement and illusion to force the skinny man to cooperate with him before taking action.

It's a pity that this guy is of no use. The two ninjas are in a stalemate and don't know how to come up with a last-ditch attack!

Xie Mao, who had already sent Qingtong, did not have a second perspective from behind, but when he heard this, he sighed and murmured: "Uncle Sen, he is already dead."

"!?" Before Jiao Rong could react, he saw the old housekeeper he had killed suddenly violently slashed the skinny man's neck with a vicious hand knife.

"Ah!" The skinny man's body shook violently, his eyes turned white, and he fainted and fell to the ground.

"How can it be?!"

Jiao Rong's eyes widened again, completely unable to believe what he saw.

Although according to the information, the old butler was just an ordinary person, but just in case, he still used all his strength to kill the old butler. How could a dead man get back up!

After knocking out the skinny man, the old butler slowly stood up straight. Only then did Jiao Rong see clearly that the old butler was like a walking zombie, staring straight at him with his eyes that had lost their vitality.

It's like an evil ghost crawling out of hell and coming for revenge!
