Volume 1 - Seeds in Troubled Times Chapter 41 - Convergence
"Hmm. Hmm? This is... ah, where's the captain?" Tomorrow was the first to wake up. Although he was knocked unconscious by a palm and hit a tree, he was not seriously injured. However, after a while
Then he woke up. "Hey, brother, brother! Wake up!" Tomorrow was the first to run to shake his brother to wake him up, but he didn't receive a response.
"Huh? Tomorrow. This... ah, where is Tian Ling?" Yuetu was woken up by Tomorrow's anxious voice. He opened his eyes in a daze and looked at the equally confused Tomorrow. The mask was still on his face.
, but couldn't stop the overwhelming anxiety.
"Ming Yue... it was a bit unfortunate that he fell. Do you have any gauze? Let's bandage him first. When he wakes up, we will go find the captain." Yue Rabbit approached the two brothers and looked at the wound on Mingyue's arm.
Wound, said with some disappointment.
Compared to the flat ground where Yuetu and Tomorrow fell, Mingyue hit a piece of gravel when she fell. Her arms were bruised, and her back was hit hard. She fainted.
Sometimes you don't know how to protect your body.
Tomorrow hurriedly took out a roll of gauze and a small bottle of alcohol from the ninja bag behind his back, and patiently helped his brother wipe it.
"Tomorrow, I've never seen you in such a hurry." Yuetu stood aside, watching the surroundings. When he saw Tomorrow who was in a hurry, he forced a smile and teased him.
Indeed, in ordinary times, even if Tomorrow is impatient, he will not be in a hurry. Even though he is so impatient, he still does things in an orderly manner. After all, he has been an ANBU leader for two years, so this habit should be developed. And now, he is his dearest brother.
With the danger present, he had thrown all the rules and regulations of ANBU into oblivion. It was the first time for Moon Rabbit to see such a tomorrow.
"Um...Tomorrow, are you all okay?" Mingyue opened her eyes, and in front of her was Tomorrow, who had been kneeling for dozens of minutes.
"Ming Yue, wake up." Yue Rabbit saw that Ming Ri was slowly coming to his senses, and he felt relieved. His body that had been tense due to vigilance also completely relaxed. "Can you move? The captain is gone. He must have been lured away.
We have found the enemy. Let’s find the captain.”
"Well... I can move. Then..." Ming Yue breathed a little, struggling to climb up the tree while saying. This sentence was interrupted by the sudden rise of thick fog in the far north. Ming Yue
He opened his mouth and did not close it again after seeing the thick fog.
Ming Ri followed his gaze and understood what Ming Yue was thinking. "That's Captain Tian Ling's Mist Hidden Technique. If the clone is in that position, the main body should also be in that direction. Let's go, brother."
Tomorrow held up the bright moon with one hand, half dragging and half dragging towards the thick fog.
"It's so urgent. Come to the woods. I'm afraid there might be an ambush on the road." Jade Rabbit jumped onto the branch and shouted to the two brothers below. "I'll help you check the situation."
"Then I'll trouble...you." Mingyue's body was still early to recover, so she whispered a sentence with difficulty.
…
"Hey, you are all awake." On the branch directly in front of Moon Rabbit, Yu Ling stood quietly.
"Captain Tianling... Just be fine. What about those enemies? You said they were all Jonin... You..." Yuetu was a little incoherent. In front of a powerful enemy, the captain took the enemy away alone and kept it intact.
Coming back unscathed is a great encouragement to the team members.
"Well, let's go quickly. The mission continues. Hurry up to the border before dawn and rest and adjust at the guard's side.
Let's wait. There are still pursuers behind, I killed one and diverted three. You can't buy much time. Let's go!" Yu Ling urged. There really isn't much time, and the storm over there is about to subside.
.
"Captain... um, okay." Tomorrow hesitated to speak. With his temperament, he probably wanted to say something grateful, but he was embarrassed, so he just kept it in his throat.
"The Moon Rabbit will open the way. The bright moon will be in the middle tomorrow. I will cut off the rear. Feng Clone!" Yu Ling arranged the formation so that the Moon Rabbit, who is currently in good health, would be at the forefront, while he, as the strongest combat force, would protect the rear, and
Leave a clone in place to delay time.
"Yes." The three of them said in unison, then jumped onto the branches and jumped in the jungle, away from Konoha again.
…
"Let me report first. Well, the mission to kill Yu Ling failed. The native ghost was killed." In the eye of the storm, the three ninjas who tried various ninjutsu but still could not escape sat down as if giving up and had a good rest.
Get up. As the captain, the ninja even started to write a mission report.
When the storm stopped, he summoned the messenger eagle, tied the report he had just written to his ankle, and sent it to his leader.
…
"Captain Tianling, it's almost dawn. Do you want to take a break?" Ming Ri kept supporting Mingyue. The hours-long jumping made his shoulders sore and his neck hurt, and he couldn't hold on any longer.
"Well, we'll reach the border in about half an hour. Let's rest when we get there. It's still not safe in the woods. Now let me help Mingyue." Yu Ling saw the situation tomorrow and took the initiative to take over the task.
come over.
However... Yu Ling is only eight years old now. No matter how mature he is mentally, physically... he is only the size of an eight-year-old child. A little over 1.2 meters is what Yu Ling is now. And Mingyue is a healthy young man.
The ninja was almost 1.7 meters tall, so it was obviously not something that a child like Yu Ling could support.
"Let me go ahead and trouble the captain." Moon Rabbit accidentally noticed this scene and went into battle himself to resolve this embarrassment.
"Well, thank you, Feng Clone!" After leaving another clone in place, the four-person team moved forward again, running towards the border.
…
"It's dawn, um, let's wake everyone up. Kurenai, Kai! Kushina-san... everyone is getting up!" Asuma jumped down from the tree and woke up the Jonin one by one, ready to continue.
Task.
"Huh? What's the damage over there?" When he woke up, he looked around at Yuhi Hong, and found that the forest to the south was somewhat damaged. The trees were all lying in various directions, and there was still a small open space. And further away,
There is very thick water vapor in this place.
"Oh! That was the bloody storm in the forest in the middle of the night yesterday! It appeared very late at night!" Kai saw the damage that Hong mentioned, and then thought of the storm he saw yesterday, stood on his head, and walked with his fingers.
In front of Hong, he said vigorously.
"That direction is the direction of Tiannokuni. Could it be that..." Kushina thought of the ANBU Tianlong team that set off before them. "Oh no, hurry up." Without any explanation, she just rushed alone.
Toward the place where the storm appeared.
"Huh? What's going on?" The other jounin were still confused and had no idea what Kushina was thinking, but Asuma and others had some guesses. They had all heard of the rising star genius Yu Ling.
He graduated from a normal ninja school in four years and immediately joined the Anbu. At the same time, he developed clones that were equipped with ninjutsu. Two of them were about storms and mist.
At the same time, it is in the direction of Tian Zhiguo, so it is most likely the masterpiece of Yu Ling, the ANBU code name Tian Ling.
"Let's go, they can't be taken away again." Asma said in a deep voice with a cigarette in her mouth and the corners of her mouth turned downward.
Kushina, who was the first to arrive at the scene, stood on the battlefield last night, waiting for the ninjas behind.
"This is where the clone performs ninjutsu, right? Well, there's no blood around, so it seems like there's no problem here."
"Kushina, how about I catch up first? I have the fastest speed here." Kai was the first to arrive. Indeed, his physical skills are unmatched by anyone here, and his extreme speed
He is also invincible. What's more, he also possesses forbidden techniques.
"Okay, be careful." Kushina thought about it for a moment and then agreed. After all, Kai's combat power is also top-notch. If he uses forbidden techniques, he can be comparable to Kage-level ninjas.
"Yoshi, burn your youth! Eight Gates Dunjia·Third Gate·Shengmen Gate, open!" The light green chakra...no, just evaporated sweat! Green steam surrounds Kai. This is his forbidden
The technique has been used, and so far, it has not harmed the body.
boom!
As soon as Kai stepped down, the person flew dozens of meters away. This was a speed that was difficult for the naked eye to keep up with. Within a few breaths, when the ninja behind arrived at Kushina's position, Kai had already disappeared.
disappeared.
…
On the other hand, the root members are still following Yu Ling.
"Huh? Is this... still a clone?" The three of them arrived at the place where Yu Ling was first found. The ground was stained with blood. Just when they were about to pass quickly, a... wind wall suddenly appeared in front of them.
"It's the wind wall again." Water Wolf was a little irritated. He had consumed so much chakra to eliminate one, and now another opponent appeared that was exactly the same as before. Could it be that he had to use the same method again and spend a lot of money again?
Do you have enough time and chakra to deal with this person who is clearly a clone at a glance?
It is already daytime now, and the Jonin team behind will catch up at any time. The tug-of-war cannot be used again under any circumstances.
No, a green figure rushed over without stopping.
"Oh! It's Tian Ling." Kai saw the thin body and immediately recognized that it was Tian Ling. He turned around on the branch, kicked in the opposite direction, and landed next to Yu Ling. Fortunately, this time,
, his guess was not wrong. "You are... Gen." Kai was a little excited and a little excited just now, but the next moment, his whole face that was beaming with joy actually drooped, his thick eyebrows stood up straight, and his voice became darker.
"Gen?" "Yu Ling" asked Kai with some confusion. He had never heard of this name before.
"That's right, Gen. Konoha's second ANBU is led by a high-ranking Konoha executive. It handles... all kinds of dark events. What do you do?" Kai has no good impression of this department at all. As upright as he is,
Naturally, he couldn't stand the person who huddled underground and made small moves that couldn't be moved on the table. The three root members standing in front of Yu Ling now made him guess a lot. He gritted his teeth and hated the old man deeply.
