Chapter seven hundred and ninety fourth on the road
Ten kilometers away from the capital city, in a secluded forest area, the bright sunshine shines on the leaves, casting mottled light and shadow on the lush grass.
Suddenly, the breeze blew, the weeds flew, and the fast running pace of three figures broke the tranquility of the afternoon. The inadvertent movement suddenly startled a group of birds living in the forest.
These are three women. The leader is the Speaker of the Fire Country Congress, and the other two are the personal bodyguards of the Speaker.
At this moment, they were stepping on low mounds, walking through dense grass, and wading across small rivers from time to time. The beautiful natural scenery could not stop their sight for even the slightest bit.
As time slowly passed, the footsteps of the two female ninjas Xiaoqiu and Xiaodong became more and more messy, but their speed did not dare to slow down for even a moment, as if there were some wild beasts chasing them behind them.
Between the two of them, Guanghui was panting violently and looking back from time to time. His expression was full of panic in his nervousness. From the swaddling clothes held on his chest, faint cries could be heard.
The brocade clothes on her body had long been torn by the branches of the surrounding trees. Her black and silky hair was stained with sweat, and her headband was missing.
With his tattered clothes and long disheveled hair, Guanghui's current image is no longer as graceful and luxurious as before, but more like a beggar.
Half an hour had passed since Nonoyu took action, heard the clash of weapons coming from outside the door, and decided to run away.
Guanghui wasn't sure if she was out of danger now, but in short, the sooner she could get to the train station in a nearby town and get on the train to the Land of Rain, the sooner she would be able to get down safely.
Although there was a train station in the capital, she did not dare to rush there. After all, Mitsue knew about Nonou's character through intelligence and knew that he was a very thoughtful person.
Since Nonoyu decided to take action, and he didn't even get any news before taking action, it means that the other party must have made all preparations, and going to the Kokuto Railway Station is undoubtedly a trap.
Mitsue knew everything about the power of Nonou, the acting Hokage, but she also understood that she could never compete with the group of close jounin under the other party's command simply by relying on the power she had left in the Country of Fire.
Therefore, we must run and rush abroad as soon as possible...
"Princess, no one is chasing you at the moment. Do you want to take a break?"
Seeing Guanghui's panting and embarrassed appearance, Xiaoqiu couldn't help but feel a little distressed, but her persuasion only received a cold response:
"I can still hold on."
When she said this, Guanghui did not look back. She just hugged the child tightly in her arms while running silently. Her hanging hair obscured her face, making Xiaoqiu Xiaodong on the side unable to see her clearly.
expression.
Sensing the stubbornness emanating from Guanghui's words, Xiaoqiu's eyes flashed with worry.
Subconsciously, she glanced at her sister, and when she saw Xiaodong shaking her head slightly, Xiaoqiu had no choice but to sigh helplessly, thinking silently in her heart:
'After all, the princess's physique is far different from ours, and her personality is too strong. How can we make her agree to let us carry her?'
In fact, with Guanghui's physical condition, he should not be able to run at such a fast speed and continue for more than half an hour without rest. Ordinary people do not have this kind of endurance.
Being able to do all this was also thanks to the third-generation chakra reagent she secretly injected into herself, which gave her a physique that was not inferior to that of ordinary genin. This allowed her to follow Xiaoqiu Xiaodong and run so far in one breath.
However, although she possesses the power of chakra, Mitsue is not a serious ninja after all. She has not learned any ninjutsu or conducted any physical training.
Injecting the third-generation chakra reagent was an accidental and bold attempt, purely driven by my own curiosity, and perhaps a little bit of envy of the ninja's ability.
The Daimyo of the Fire Country and the Congress Leader, who has an elegant temperament and a distinguished status, obviously does not want to be accompanied by a bunch of cold weapons all day long. Having chakra is enough to satisfy her curiosity.
But I didn't expect that I would use this power today.
'Nonoyu is really courageous. After all, he is a ninja who licks blood with his sword... If I hadn't reacted quickly today, I might have been in trouble.'
'I don't know how long Shisui and the others can hold Nonoyu off, I just hope there's still enough time... As long as I can escape, as long as I can reach Lei Luo smoothly...'
'Nonoyu, your death is coming!'
Although the expression on her face was calm, Guanghui was already roaring in her heart. There was a cold light in her eyes, and all kinds of thoughts were racing in her mind, thinking about how to speak ill of Nonoyu in front of Lei Luo and kill that hateful person.
woman.
Less than two months after giving birth to her child, Nonoyu came to the door without any warning. Mitsue said that she could not have expected this kind of thing, but this did not prevent her from planning a counterattack after the incident.
strategy.
While thinking about the plan, his eyes moved downwards. When he saw the swaddled child on his chest and stared at the pink and soft face, Guanghui's eyes flashed a rare touch of tenderness.
Then, it quickly became firm again.
"Daughter, we will definitely be able to live well. Your mother has never been afraid of anyone in my life. When I send you to your father..."
Her crimson lips were slightly parted, as if she was talking to the child, but also to herself. Guanghui's expression at this moment was full of perseverance and gentleness, attracting frequent glances from Xiaoqiu and Xiaodong next to her.
However, I haven't finished this sentence yet.
There was a whooshing sound, and ten meters ahead, a kunai was suddenly inserted into the ground, and the next moment, two figures flashed out of thin air.
"Sorry, you may not have a chance, Guanghui."
Gently removing her arm from Lei Tong's shoulder, Nonoyu stood firm, a sincere smile appeared on her face. Without the obstruction of glasses, her fair and beautiful face was fully revealed, making her look more beautiful than before.
Beautiful.
In contrast, Mitsue's face suddenly darkened. Xiaoqiu and Xiaodong immediately ran forward, took out their kunai shurikens and got into stance, watching the two uninvited guests across from them with vigilance.
"Guanghui, why don't you speak? Are you so afraid of me?"
"Speaking of which, this should be our second meeting, right? We had a quick farewell last time, but I have a lot of things I want to talk to you about."
Nonoyu seemed to have turned a blind eye to Xiaoqiu Xiaodong. Her highly myopic eyes made her vision slightly confused, but even so, she still tried hard to look towards Mitsue's figure.
The smile on the corner of his mouth has not changed at all.
Last time we met...
It was still on the day of the military parade...
On that occasion, they basically didn't say a word.
The seats are also very far apart.
"I have nothing to talk to you about. Your behavior is destined to be punished by Lei Luo. I just hope you can bear it when the time comes."
After forcing herself to calm down, Mitsue gently smoothed her hair, revealing her delicate face, and replied with a calm expression, seemingly automatically ignoring Nonoyu's previous words.
