On the empty plain, a man and a woman ran side by side with silent faces.
In a unique ninja posture, they pull their arms behind their backs when moving, effectively alleviating air resistance.
They were all wearing khaki vests with a thin layer of armor on their shoulders. The man was about eighteen or nineteen years old, while the woman was younger. It can be seen from the forehead protectors on their foreheads.
, they are all Iwa ninja.
An Iwa ninja who performs missions in the Land of Rain.
The sky was getting dark, the thunder was rolling, and the heavy rain was getting heavier. However, the two running people had no idea of taking shelter from the rain, because they shouldered an important mission and had to get to the meeting point as soon as possible.
Click! A bolt of lightning flashed across, and in an instant it seemed as if the entire dark world was dyed into daylight. Both the male and female Iwa ninja narrowed their eyes in unison to resist the strong light brought by the lightning.
After a moment of light, there was darkness again.
But at this moment, they suddenly stopped.
Just because not far ahead, a figure blocked their way. In the hazy rain and fog, they could vaguely distinguish that the other party was wearing a set of green vests. As for the forehead protector worn by the other party, they could not see it due to the weather.
See clearly.
But the known information was enough for them to identify the person blocking their way: a green vest, a garment only worn by ninjas in Konoha.
"It's an enemy." The male Iwa Ninja stared closely at the Konoha Ninja who was only about ten meters away from them, and whispered to his companions beside him, "Preliminary guess is that it is at least a Chunin or above, so be careful."
He cannot see through the enemy's strength, but there is an unwritten rule in every village: only ninjas who are chunin and above are qualified to wear ninja vests.
Coupled with the speed at which the opponent quietly slipped in front of them, the male Iwa-nin thought that this Konoha ninja would definitely be difficult to deal with.
The female rock ninja nodded silently, secretly took out a shuriken from her ninja tool bag and hid it secretly behind her back. When she was ready, she whispered: "The opponent is very fast, I will create opportunities for you.
"
As partners in a team, they all know each other's abilities very well, and after countless battles with each other, the male Iwa-nin instantly understood what the female Iwa-nin meant.
Creating opportunities not only means testing the enemy to collect key intelligence, but more importantly, buying time to create conditions for one of his techniques to be used. Time is urgent, and there are important tasks that need to be completed, so they plan to make a quick decision as soon as they come up
Just use your trump card.
With years of tacit understanding, there is no need for any nonsense. After a brief exchange, the male and female Iwa ninjas were ready to take action.
The lightning flashed and disappeared, and the rain became more intense.
Lei Luo just stood there casually, quietly watching the two targets muttering not far away, discussing ways to deal with him. He neither made a sound to disturb nor took the initiative to attack.
This is not to make a big move, but to wait for the opponent to make the first move. He has already activated his double speed state and is ready to fight. He still understands that a lion fights a rabbit with all his strength. He just wants to test the double speed state in the battle.
It's just the actual performance. If he takes action first, the purpose of the test may not be achieved.
Swish, swish, swish!
The three shurikens cut through the rain curtain while rotating at high speed, and drew in three arcs towards the vital parts of Lei Luo's body. Before the shurikens could hit the target, the female Iwa ninja pulled out the short sword from behind and rushed out after him.
, seemingly not wanting to give Lei Luo any time to react.
The gray light in his eyes became slightly denser, and Lei Luo observed the three shurikens slowly approaching him in the air:
Countless raindrops fell on the incoming hidden weapon, instantly turning into scattered drops of water.
The four sharp flat blades were rotating around the central ring, and a slight whirring sound was heard.
On the dark and reflective metal mirror, a trace of dark red broke the overall harmony.
At double speed, the speed of these three shurikens struck Lei Luo like a turtle crawling.
In this world that seemed to be infinitely slowed down, he raised his right hand and stretched out his index finger: first stringing the first shuriken, then the second, and the third.
Finally, the three constantly rotating shurikens were strung together in a row between his fingers, and the rotational strength gradually weakened due to friction.
The female Iwa-nin's pupils shrank suddenly, and the steps she was about to make for the final sprint suddenly braked to a sudden stop, even causing her to stumble.
She had anticipated how the enemy might respond to her shuriken attack: whether it was parrying, blocking, or quickly dodging, she would always be able to follow up with a follow-up move to seize the initiative in the battle.
But she really didn't expect that the enemy would be able to catch the three shurikens she threw with all her strength without any damage, using only one finger. And she didn't even see what happened at that moment.
The only thing that could be seen clearly was the enemy's expression. It was a very casual attitude, and it felt like he had just swatted three flies to death.
This is just like a joke.
The hair on the female Iwa-nin's body was covered with sweat, and cold sweat flowed down her cheeks. Her steps retreated slowly and imperceptibly. She had realized that the strength of the enemy in front of her was definitely beyond her imagination, and was completely different from hers.
The shuriken on the index finger rotated slower and slower, and finally stopped. Lei Luo threw it to the ground and focused his attention on the female Iwa nin again.
The next second, he moved.
In his eyes, the enemy stood quietly and did not move, but the female Iwa ninja suddenly felt as if her shoulder was suddenly tapped, and then her waist relaxed, and the ninja sword in her hand flew away.
When she came back to her senses, she first glanced at her empty hands. After realizing what had just happened, she raised her head stiffly, only to find that Lei Luo was still standing there, seemingly not moving even half a step. But his hands suddenly
There was an extra ninja sword and a ninja tool bag, and he was looking at these two items with great interest at the moment.
Fear struck suddenly.
She wanted to turn around and run away, but found that her body was difficult to move. She wanted to shout loudly, but found that it was extremely difficult to open and close her mouth. She wanted to think of countermeasures, but found that her thinking... was becoming more and more difficult.
Coming slower and slower.
what happened……

Lei Luo didn't know when he came to her side again, and slashed her neck with his palm.
With doubts, her consciousness fell into darkness.
Lei Luo withdrew his palm sword and looked at the female rock ninja lying at his feet. A hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes. He did not kill the woman, he just knocked her unconscious. After all, she was also an experimental subject who was finally found.
.
It's just that... at double speed, the Chuunin's level of strength seems to have been unable to meet his purpose of testing himself. What just happened was more like a boring game than a battle. At a moving speed of 100 meters per second, the enemy
He couldn't react at all. The first time his body came into contact, his power of time invaded his body and "deceleration" was successfully activated.
Then, there is no more.
Now there is only one left, the male Iwa-nin...
Hearing the whistling sound in his ears, Lei Luo turned his eyes and saw several huge rocks flying towards him.
Very slow.
Lei Luo bent down and grabbed the collar of the unconscious female Iwa-nin with enough time, and disappeared in the next moment.
Boom boom boom...
Continuous roars sounded, covering up the noise of the rain curtain. Smoke and dust rose, but were quickly wetted by the rain. Calm returned to the field again, leaving only a pile of gravel covering Lei Luo's original footing.
at.
The male Iwa-nin breathed heavily and slowly put down his hands that had completed the seal. His expression was very strange, showing both the relief after venting his anger and the sadness that could not be concealed.
The ninjutsu he just performed did not avoid his companions who had fallen into the hands of the enemy. Although it was painful, he did not regret it. Because if he didn't act decisively, he didn't know if he would have the courage to do it. In the end, both of them would probably do it.
die.
"Forgive me... Yuki." The male Iwa-nin muttered to himself, trying in vain to suppress the pain in his heart.
Then, he felt a tap on his shoulder.
Lei Luo's voice came from behind him. "For taking such a decisive action, you are stronger than the Mist Ninja I have ever seen."
What……

Later, Lei Luo picked up the bodies of the two rock ninjas and left here without looking back.
