"Has it been so long since then? It's like a fleeting time."

Under the freezing night, the white coat he wore had already been soaked in blood and dyed bright red.

The bloody smell like rust continued to overflow in the air, and then entered the nostrils.

If ordinary people smelled it, they would probably faint from the strong smell of blood.

However, Asami Masumi has long been accustomed to such a smell, and whenever she smells such a smell of rust, the blood in her body always boils.

The cold air at high altitude floats, and the clouds begin to push along with the air currents, occasionally covering up the white moonlight and bringing shadows to the earth.

In the dark forest, there is very little light. Even the nimble and agile ninjas would find it a bit difficult to move in such a near-dark environment with their naked eyes.

Apart from the sound of the cold air blowing by in the wind, the only sound in my ears was the sound of my running footsteps, breaking the silence around me.

The smell of blood continued to overflow, including his own and those of the Konoha ninjas he had killed.

Among the Konoha ninjas chasing him, there must be ninjas from the Inuzuka clan.

In this case, it would be useless to stop the bleeding now.

Because it's too late.

Asami Masumi knew very well that it was impossible to escape from the hands of the Konoha ninjas with ordinary means, and he had to use more complex terrain to delay the progress of this group of people.

"I remember it was about a hundred kilometers ahead..."

One hundred kilometers may take a long time for ordinary people.

However, this distance is not actually far for ninjas. On the contrary, among the missions that ninjas go out to perform, one hundred kilometers is considered a very short distance.

However, even if the distance is not very far, it is impossible to arrive immediately.

Especially during this period, if we continue to be entangled, things will become more difficult.

Her perception is laid in the surrounding forest, and the area that her perception can affect, which is about five kilometers centered on herself, will be covered.

In this area alone, she sensed that there were more than twenty ninjas operating in the area.

Some of them had very strong chakra reactions and were not ordinary ninjas.

And this is only within a five-kilometer radius. More ninjas may also be mobilizing, not to mention there are ANBU following them.

Try to avoid fighting with ANBU ninjas.

Although the ninjas in the patrol force are powerful, their comprehensive capabilities are not as comprehensive as those of the ANBU.

Being caught up by ANBU and escaping is the most troublesome thing.

However, the ANBU came out of Konoha after him, so he shouldn't be able to run into them in a short time.

It took a lot of effort to catch her back.

This kind of pursuit intensity is comparable to that of chasing down Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas, more than ten years ago.

This Hokage-sama really thinks highly of himself.

Not only did she want to avoid losing more information and technology from Konoha, but she also wanted to get more information about Shiraishi and the Kingdom of Demons from her.

Her head is more precious than imagined.

It is reasonable for ANBU and patrol forces to attack at the same time.

She didn't know how long she had been running in the forest, but the wounds on Asami Masumi's body had been healed by the Palm Senjutsu, and they had recovered as before, without leaving any scars.

As the chakra in her body was depleted, she would also take out military food pills from time to time to replenish her physical strength and chakra, so that she would not be directly at a disadvantage when encountering a battle.

There should only be twenty kilometers left. Asami Masumi's eyes fell into the darkness in front of the forest, silently calculating the distance.

Panting slightly, he continued fighting. Although he recovered a certain amount of physical strength and chakra through the Bingliang Pills, his mental fatigue could not be forcibly reversed.

If she was attacked by another jounin, or worse, multiple jounin, her situation would become more dangerous.

Because in this case, the Jonin would not act alone, there must be a Chuunin with outstanding strength around him.

Thinking of this, Asami Masumi opened the ninja bag and took out an emerald green pill the size of a finger.

The color is bright and beautiful, but it feels more like a danger and warning.

Playing with the emerald green pill, Asami Masumi narrowed her eyes slightly, as if she was weighing something.

At this moment, a sound suddenly sounded in the sky.

quack!

quack!

crow.

A large number of crows with flashing red eyes swooped down from the sky like a group of fearless soldiers, charging towards Asami Masumi running on the snow.

Without hesitation, Asami Masumi dropped the green pill in her hand into her mouth, wrapped it with her tongue, and held it in her mouth without swallowing it.

The faint medicinal power was released from the pill. In an instant, Asami Masumi's mind became more energetic. The original fatigue was swept away, and there was even a hint of excitement in her eyes.

The chakra scalpel condensed in the palm of your hand emits brilliant blue fluorescence and is dazzling in the dim forest.

quack!

quack!

The flock of crows surrounding Asami Masumi screamed loudly and fiercely.

Their bodies are very flexible, and unlike ordinary crows, they are ninja beasts domesticated by ninjas, and are far more aggressive than ordinary crows.

Especially the beak, which is harder than iron and stone, is a deadly weapon.

However, the bird's beak, which was harder than iron stone, was cut in half along with the body under the slash of the chakra scalpel.

Rich blood filled the entire space.

The black feathers kept falling off, as if a black snow had fallen, dyeing the white snow black.

As each crow fades away, more and more crow corpses are found at the feet. Not only blood is splattered on the white coat, but also black feathers.

Although the visible reduction in the number of crows has caused certain obstacles to Asami Masumi, it would be too fanciful to use this to determine the outcome.

Without warning, in the crow-blackened night, a vague shadow quickly passed through the air and swung towards Asami Masumi's body.

The arm where the chakra scalpel was used was stinging, and a cut suddenly opened, and blood spurted out along the wound.

Asami Masumi covered the wound on her right arm with her left hand, stepped back, and stared at the ninja who suddenly appeared.

She sensed that there would be a Jonin coming to make a surprise attack, but the way of the attack was beyond her expectation.

Can't see.

The attack trajectory was not detected.

If she hadn't been alert enough, the blow just now wouldn't have been as simple as scratching her arm.

Blocking the way was a man in his twenties, with a scar that looked like a burn on the right side of his face. He was wearing a black coat outside the Konoha Jounin uniform, blending in with the night.

Not quite the same.

One of the guard ninjas of the late Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato.

Judging from the intelligence collected, he was a jounin who shrewdly used the environment to assassinate his enemies.

In this environment, there are dangers.

His right hand was clasped together as if he were holding something, but if he looked carefully, it was just a mass of darkness. He could only vaguely see the weapon Luo Kuo, which was a black sword with fresh blood dripping on it.

Asami Masumi was stunned. No wonder she sensed it, but it was still difficult to avoid. She used the color of the weapon to form a protective color, which was very good at hiding her attack.

Not only that, Asami Masumi also felt that the scratched right arm was slightly numb, and the black knife was quenched with poison.

"That arm... can you still move it?"

Looking at Asami Masumi's right arm that could barely move, his eyes became slightly solemn.

The opponent's resistance to poison is too strong.

The poison he concocted would cause ordinary ninjas to immediately become paralyzed and fall to the ground after being hit by it.

This was the first time I saw a ninja like Masumi Asami who was still standing there as if nothing had happened.

Asami Masumi didn't answer, and glanced lightly at the trees on the side.

Behind that tree, there is another ninja lurking. Judging from the strength of the chakra, he is a jounin.

Moreover, the spell performed is related to controlling crows.

Yamashiro Aoba? The two men joined forces to attack, and they might not be able to solve it for a while. Asami Masumi guessed the identity of the jounin secretly, and silently calculated the gap between the two sides.

It was a breakout battle now, and it was impossible for her to fight two jounin for a long time here.

Moreover, there were more Konoha ninjas, surrounding them from a distance.

In about thirty seconds, about ten Konoha ninjas will support these two people.

A quick battle is never reliable, so we can only continue to break through.

Thinking of this, Asami Masumi no longer hesitated, she flew quickly and turned into an afterimage and flew out.
To be continued...
