Scarface, whose real name is Momochi Takeshi, is a ninja from Kirigakure Murakami.
The surname Momochi has a special meaning in Kirigakure Village. It refers to a family that is more like a samurai than a ninja.
Although the Momochi family is not prosperous and its members do not have bloodline boundaries, their reputation is still no less than that of the many Kirigakure bloodline families. In Kirigakure Village, this is a very rare thing.
Ninjas pursue power, worship power, but also fear power. This is even more obvious in Kirigakure Village. If the ninja clan does not have power, then naturally there is no such thing as fame.
There is only one reason why the Taochi family has been able to prosper for a long time. They have a profound family background, which can ensure that every generation of ninjas who come out of the family will be the backbone of the village.
There are rumors that this family has a long history. It is said that long ago before chakra appeared, "Mochi" was once the top samurai family on this continent.
Later, even though ninjas appeared and replaced the samurai as the leader of the world, some valuable things still did not disappear with time and were carefully preserved by the members of the Momochi family.
Although a new era has arrived, the power of the old era may not be useless. Although chakra allows ninjas to rise, it is not an exclusive item for ninjas. Its appearance makes everything possible.
After combining with chakra, the older generation of the Taochi family created a lot of valuable knowledge with the help of the original martial arts system. Unique training methods, complicated move systems, superb killing skills... these are Taochi.
The powerful origin of the Earth family.
Momochi Takeshi was deeply proud of his family and marveled at the wisdom of his ancestors. If you practice chakra martial arts to the extreme, you may not be weaker than those "shadows". He thought so, and he put his thoughts into action.
.
Working hard around the clock and practicing weapon moves made his body stronger and faster. However, as his eyes were completely attracted by his family inheritance, his ninjutsu practice was naturally put on hold.
This also led him to become a partial taijutsu ninja, but he didn't really care about it.
In this way, time passed by quickly, and he saw that he was almost fifty, but his strength seemed to be stuck at a bottleneck, stuck at the Jonin level and unable to make any progress. In desperation, he had no choice but to lament his lack of talent, and then took it as a matter of course.
All expectations are placed on cultivating the next generation - his own son.
True strength is tempered on the battlefield through blood and fire. Momochi Takeshi understands this truth deeply. But the battle with Iwagakure is no child's play, and he does not dare to rashly bring his son to the battlefield.
It happened that at this time, Konoha was aggressively marching into the Rain Country. The Mizukage was keenly aware of the fact that the Fire Country's defenses were empty, so he made a strategic resource replenishment plan of "grab a wave and run away".
Realizing that this was an opportunity, Takeshi Momochi decisively asked for orders to come to the battlefield of the Land of Fire, and arranged his son into his team. Nowadays, most of the ruthless characters in Konoha stay in the Land of Rain and the Land of Fire.
What's left in the territory are just some small fish and shrimps, which are nothing to worry about and are just suitable for young people to experience.
Unexpectedly, in the third battle with the Konoha patrol force, Mochiba, his only son who had just turned eighteen this year, died. He was suddenly killed by a detonating charm that floated from nowhere.
The dead body even had one of its arms cut off by the angry Konoha ninjas to vent their anger.
The accident happened so suddenly that his mind went blank for a moment. What followed was anger, hatred and madness. He swore that he would kill all the Konoha ninjas present today. Even though the leader opposite was no better than
No matter how weak he was, he did not hesitate even though his teammates died one after another.
Finally, there was only one enemy left in front of him, and that was the leader. The opponent looked to be in his early twenties, and coincidentally, he was also a ninjutsu-type ninja. Takeshi Momochi knew how difficult it was to really practice taijutsu well.
This guy has this kind of strength at this age, and his talent is terrifying.
But it doesn't matter, he has to be stronger after all, and he is confident that he can drag this young Konoha ninja to death in this deserted battlefield.
Then, another accident happened. His son, whom he thought was dead, turned out to be alive. Although he seemed to have only one breath left, he was still alive after all.
The battlefield was chaotic, and he didn't have time to carefully examine his son's "body" at that time. This was indeed his carelessness.
Hope born out of despair is always precious. Therefore, Momochi was immediately confused. He did not want to spend any more time, and his eagerness to escape immediately affected his performance. As a result, he was defeated by the opponent's opponent.
Ye Ninja took the opportunity and injured his arm.
If he were a ninjutsu type ninja, he might have had a headache from this, but he was a taijutsu type, so it was harmless. An injured arm did not prevent him from escaping with his son.
Yes, run away.
What kind of family glory, revenge for the team members...go to hell. As long as his son can live, he will not ask for anything anymore.
After calming down, Mochiwu took a look at the new guy who appeared. He was also a young man, he looked younger than his son, and he seemed to be seriously injured.
However, this young man looked extraordinary. He was able to survive under the decapitation sword. He knew the strength of Loquat Juzo, which aroused his vigilance. He did not act rashly because the opponent was too close to Mochi Blade.
After some fruitless talk, the battle continued helplessly. At this moment, Momochi suddenly found himself in a dilemma.
…
Lei Luo's neck was right in front of him, only a few centimeters away from the kunai in his hand. In just the blink of an eye, he could take the life of this hateful boy.
But the other boy behind him has already stabbed the knife into his skin. If he doesn't care, it will be his muscles, spine and heart next.
This distance is like a natural chasm.
hateful!
Should he want his son's life or his own life? Takeshi Momochi knew that he had to make a choice.
If you insist on killing Lei Luo, it is foreseeable that both of them will die, and the remaining enemy will probably kill Mochi Ren to vent his anger.
If you avoid it and remain useful, you might still have a chance.
After all, the Mist Ninjas have deployed a lot of troops in this area. If they wait for a while longer and wait for nearby support to arrive, the two Konoha Ninjas will be unable to fly.
As for... what would happen if his son fell into the hands of the enemy, Takeshi Momochi temporarily blocked it from his mind consciously.
No longer hesitating, in the next moment, Momochi Takeshi withdrew the piercing kunai. Using the momentum of his dive, he twisted his body violently, avoiding the direct contact between his heart and the blade. At the same time, he kicked Lei Luo hard, and also
Without looking at the result, the kunai retracted in his hand swept away behind him.
The shuddering feeling disappeared and turned into a fierce wind blowing from his side. Lei Luo didn't have time to think too much and instinctively stretched out his arms to protect his body.
Bang!
Click! A clear and pleasant sound of bone cracking sounded, and the surging force was transmitted to the body. Lei Luo was carried away from the place by this force without any resistance, and rolled to a distance of more than ten meters.
Lei Luo lay on the ground in a state of embarrassment, dirt mixed with blood instantly covering his body.
A few seconds later, Lei Luo struggled and forced himself to prop up his body with his remaining hand. Resisting the excruciating pain in his arm, he stood up and walked quickly towards Tao Di Ren.
Momochi Takeshi and Sickly Face fought against each other again. Because Momochi Takeshi was hit hard again and lost the first move, this time Sickly Face had the upper hand and was gradually driving Momotchi Takeshi away from Momotchi Ren.
Force away.
Seeing that the situation had been decided, Lei Luo glanced at the two people coldly and raised his voice.
"Stop it, Mist Ninja!"
This shout successfully attracted the attention of the two men. After a brief exchange of weapons, they retreated at the same time, keeping a relatively safe distance from each other.
Momochi Takeshi gasped, his wolf-like gaze fiercely cast on Lei Luo and his son Mochichi Ren.
Lei Luo was seen bent over, half squatting next to the fallen tree, one arm hanging weakly by his side, and the other hand holding a kunai and placing it on the neck of Mochi Ren, who could not move.
"He is very important to you, right?" Lei Luo sneered breathlessly, and at the same time, the kunai in his hand used a slight force to press a shallow blood mark on Mochi Ren's neck. "If you don't want him to die, put down the weapon.
"
Seeing this, Taojiwu refused to give in easily. "Oh? You think you can threaten me like this? If you can, kill him."
Both sides understand that Taotiu Blade is Lei Luo's only bargaining chip to blackmail Taodiwu, and Taotiwu doesn't believe that the other side dares to kill him.
Seeing that the enemy was still pretending, Lei Luo's smile became more sinister, "You think I don't dare to take action?" After saying that, he used another force on his hand and cut Tao Di Ren's skin, and a wisp of blood streaked across his neck.
Seeing that the other party seemed to be serious about it, Takeshi Momochi's heart skipped a beat and he hesitated for a moment.
"Are you deaf?" Lei Luo's eyes flashed fiercely, and he raised the knife and fiercely cut off one of Tao Diren's ears.
Being hit so suddenly, Tao Chiren groaned, and an uncontrollable look of fear flashed in his eyes.
Seeing his son suddenly suffering such abuse, Takeshi Momo suppressed the anger in his chest and gritted his teeth and said, "What do you want?"
Ignoring Momochi Takeru's lustful eyes, Lei Luoshi casually cut off Momochi Takeshi's other ear again. Finally, the young Kiri ninja could no longer bear the intense pain and let out a cry.
A shrill scream.
"Uh-huh..."
The sickly face who secretly observed the situation in the field couldn't help but show a hint of hesitation when he saw Lei Luo's cruel behavior.
As a ninja who lived in the war years, although he could not be said to be pedantic, Lei Luo's method of wantonly torturing the prisoners still made him unhappy, and he couldn't help but have the urge to speak out to dissuade him.
However, when he recalled those Konoha companions who died tragically at the hands of the Mist Ninja, he hesitated.
At the same time, the scene that just happened also came into his mind at the right time, making him completely give up the purpose of interfering with Lei Luo.
Previously, in the fleeting exchange between the three of them, the sick face almost stabbed Takeshi Momochi through the heart.
Although the opponent changed his moves in time to miss his vital points and avoided death, he still suffered serious injuries. During the short battle that had just forced Momochi Takeshi back, he had already noticed that the reaction of this powerful fog ninja was much slower.
If they meet again, he is confident that he can defeat the opponent.
And all of this is due to the opportunities created by Lei Luo who sacrificed his life. Looking at Lei Luo's performance in the short period of time from his appearance to now, whether it is his keen awareness of the enemy's weakness or his decisiveness that is not afraid of death.
Hands on, all this left a very deep impression on Sick Face.
This should not be an ignorant person, and he may have a purpose for doing this.
Unknowingly, Sick Face didn't notice that he had developed a trace of trust in Lei Luo, a companion who suddenly appeared.
After the thought fell, he turned his head slightly with a sick face, no longer paying attention to the direction of Lei Luo and Mochi Ren, and focused all his energy on Mochi Wu.
He raised his blade and slowly moved closer to Lei Luo, always on guard against the fatal blow from Taotiu Wuyu.
Mochi Ren's screams once again stimulated Mochi Takeshi's nerves, but this time, in addition to anger, Mochi Takeshi also had a trace of undetectable panic in his heart.
The worst that can happen is that the fish will die and the net will be broken - this is the message Takeshi Momo read from Lei Luo's eyes.
He didn't know if Lei Luo dared to destroy the only chip in his hand, but he knew that he couldn't afford the gamble.
Momochi Takeshi had no choice but to throw away the kunai in his hand, then slowly reached his hand to his waist, carefully took off the ninja bag, signaled in front of Lei Luo, and then threw it on the ground.
At this point, Momochi Wu gradually calmed down.
He had already seen through the reality of Lei Luo. When the opponent faced his surprise attack from behind, he had behaved extremely badly. He, Momochi Takeshi, had killed countless opponents of this strength.
But at this moment, he was more afraid of Lei Luo than at the beginning, and he didn't even dare to offend him - if he still wanted to save his son's life.
With that sick face, it was destined that he would not be able to make a comeback on his own in this situation.
So, drag it on.
You can delay it as long as you can, and until the other Mist Ninja teams notice the movement here, there will still be a chance to turn around.
"I know you want to delay time." Lei Luo saw Momochi Wu's slow movements and knew that the other party still had no intention of giving up.
He smiled indifferently, wiped the kunai on Mochi Ren's collar, and wiped away the blood. "But it doesn't matter, I can continue playing with you, but this..."
Lei Luo patted Mochi Ren's cheek with the back of the kunai blade, "It may be difficult for a while."
Tao Diwu said nothing and seemed to turn a deaf ear to Lei Luo's words.
"Stop talking? How boring is this?" Lei Luo frowned and said, neither salty nor cool: "Look at it, although you have no ears, you still have a nose, tongue, eyes and teeth."
Mochi Takeshi was shocked and looked at Lei Luo in disbelief. His mouth opened slightly unconsciously. Momochi Takeshi didn't expect that this young Konoha ninja could be so vicious. He didn't even know if the other party was serious.
"You win." Momochi Takeru felt bitter at this moment, and he deeply felt the feeling of "I am a swordsman and I am a fish." "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
"Don't worry, I won't make any unreasonable demands like asking you to commit suicide immediately, and I believe you won't agree to it." After saying this, Lei Luo pretended to be deep in thought and said lightly: "In this case... I have to think about what's next.
What conditions should be put forward that will satisfy both of us? You turn around now and I will tell you later."
Tao Diwu pondered for a moment. Naturally, he would not believe Lei Luo's lies, but the situation forced him to obey.
Thinking that he still had a trump card that he had not yet used, Momochi decided to temporarily stabilize his opponent.
Thinking of this, Momochi Takeshi nodded expressionlessly. "Okay, I hope you want to hurry up." He didn't say much and turned around slowly.
Takeshi Momochi is a powerful taijutsu ninja, and everyone present knows this. But no matter how strong he is and how fast his reaction speed is, handing his back to the enemy is still tantamount to death.
.
One of the principles stated in the Ninja Code was decisively ignored by Momochi Takeshi. Has he given up, or does he still have a trump card that he has not yet used? Lei Luo is more inclined to the latter.
So, do you want to make a sick face?
No... After wasting so much effort and breaking an arm, we can't let anything happen to this precious fighting force around us.
Squinting his eyes slightly and staring at Momochi Takeshi's profile, Lei Luo kept trying to figure out Momochi Takeshi's thoughts. At the same time, he also had a vague judgment about the relationship between the prisoner in his hand and Mochi Takeshi.
To be able to do this to this extent... it should be the closest family relationship, father and son?
"No, don't..." Taochi Ren, who was pressed under Lei Luo, mustered up the last bit of strength and suddenly raised his head to look at Lei Luo, pleading in his eyes. "Please... kill... kill me.
Bar."
Mochi Takeshi paused slightly when he heard his son's voice, then he no longer hesitated and turned around completely, exposing his back to the two enemies.
Seeing this scene, Sick Face sighed slightly.
Among them, there is emotion, melancholy, awe, and a hint of regret.
Reason told him that he should take this opportunity to rush forward decisively and kill the enemy. The distance of ten meters was just a blink of an eye for a master of his level, not to mention that the enemy had his back turned to him.
At this moment, he was confident that he could easily kill this troublesome Mist Ninja, but he still did not act rashly.
The sickly face turned slightly and looked at Lei Luo beside him.
Lei Luo didn't respond to Tao Chi Ren's plea, and silently pressed Tao Chi Ren's head into the soil. Noticing the glance from the sick face, Lei Luo thought for a moment, stretched out his hand and made a gesture in front of his eyes.
The meaning of this gesture is simple - cover me.
In this case, what else is there to cover for?
Could it be that Lei Luo was planning to make some small move, but he didn't want to be discovered by the mist ninja on the opposite side?
The sickly face nodded, moved forward, walked from the side and stood in front of Lei Luo.
Seeing that the sickly face successfully blocked Momochi Takeshi's vague gaze, Lei Luo stopped procrastinating, took off Mochi Takeru's ninja tool bag hanging on his waist and started to fumble around.
A few kunai and shurikens were thrown away by him. There is no shortage of such things now.
A scroll, Lei Luo thought about it and put it away, since it didn't weigh much anyway.
Soon, Lei Luo's eyes lit up. He dug out ten detonating talismans. Together with the two remaining detonating talismans in his bag, he now had a total of twelve detonating talismans in his hand.
Without hesitation, Lei Luo stuck one of the detonating talismans on Mochiren's face, ten of them on the opponent's upper body, and the last remaining one was hidden in Mochiren's trouser pocket.
Pulling Tao Diren's clothes down to cover the position of the last detonating talisman, Lei Luo nodded secretly.
With such an arrangement, Momochi Takeshi would not be able to save Momochi Ren so easily, and he might even get himself involved.
Even if Momochi Takeshi had some trump cards to ensure his survival, he would inevitably be seriously injured by the explosion. In addition, the opponent was seriously injured at this time, and there was still a burden dragging him down, so at least he would lose his combat effectiveness.
Rehearsing the upcoming process in his mind, Lei Luo suddenly felt that the earth escape ninjutsu he had mastered might be able to create miraculous effects at this time.
