Konoha's Frozen Vortex

Chapter 53 Xuehui's Physical Persuasion

In a remote practice field, Xue Hui and Gu Jie stood facing each other.

Seeing Gu Jie's nervous look, Xue Hui smiled.

"Don't be nervous, just relax."

But Gu Jie didn't change at all, his whole body was stiff.

Xue Hui frowned slightly, and said: "If this was on the battlefield, you would already be dead, and now there is no teammate to die for you."

"If they knew what you are like now, what would they think? Would they think that it was a wrong choice to save someone who couldn't continue to fight, and would they be disappointed to see that you couldn't avenge them?"

"..." Gu Jie's body moved.

Xue Hui saw that his words were effective, so he decided to add fire.

He turned around and walked directly towards the village, saying in a contemptuous tone: "Those teammates of yours are so stupid, they actually saved a waste."

"Whoosh!" The sound of piercing the sky suddenly came from behind Xue Hui.

Then with a sound of "dang", Xue Hui's back was stabbed straight by a long sword, but the sound came out was that it hit hard metal, and Xue Hui's body only leaned forward a little.

"Crash!" On Xuehui's back, a layer of armor made of solid ice appeared, and cracks appeared at the hit part, shattered and fell off, but soon, new ice armor was formed again, Then become invisible.

Gu Jie's eyes also changed from madness and anger at the beginning to shock now.

Xue Hui turned around and said, "Are you surprised? Ice is a kind of transparent thing, and it can play with light."

Gu Jie withdrew his shocked expression. Since his behavior just now could even be characterized as a malicious sneak attack, he hurriedly stepped back a few steps after regaining his senses. It is very similar to the sword of the previous Chunin teammate, this is the sword that Kosuke got after seeing Konoha's strong request.

"Finally able to move? Then let me see your strength, do you really have the talent to become a jounin?"

Xue Hui didn't seem to blame at all, instead he said with a smile.

Unexpectedly, Gu Jie shook his head when he heard it.

"I just lost my mind for a while, I'm sorry. Also, I have decided to be a ninja forever, as a self-punishment and vigilance."

"Oh?" Xuehui had always thought that this was just a small character that didn't appear in the original book, but after hearing the words that he wanted to be a 'ten thousand years of ninja', he suddenly remembered an old character in the original book.

"It's a pity that I can't remember the name. Is it Gu Jie?" Xue Hui doesn't remember much about the small characters in the original work. After so many years, it is not easy to remember such a person.

"I don't think about it anymore. Since I am appreciated by Teacher Feijian, no matter how talented I am, I won't be bad." Xue Hui decided to bring his thoughts back to reality.

"It's up to you, anyway, Konoha's ninja is the strongest." Xuehui complained in a low voice.

"What?" Gu Jie didn't hear clearly and asked suspiciously.

"It's okay, you should be able to fight me now, just attack me, after the blow just now, you should understand that you don't have to worry about me getting hurt."

Xue Hui's tone was full of confidence in his current strength.

Facing Xue Hui's repeated underestimation of himself, Gu Jie also got a little angry, and he didn't refuse:

"Then, please be careful!"

"Konoha-style swordsmanship! Shun!"

Gu Jie quickly narrowed the distance, Xue Hui raised his right hand, opened it forward, and an ice wall quickly appeared between the two.

But the expected scene of Zhonggujie breaking the ice wall did not appear, only his figure passed through the ice wall, and then disappeared suddenly when he was about to approach Xuehui.

"It's not bad, but illusion is really rough, and so is sword art. It all depends on the foundation of ninjutsu and body art."

Facing the disappearing Gu Jie, Xue Hui still had time to express his own evaluation.

Immediately afterwards, Xuehui took out a handful of kunai from the ninja bag with his right hand, and suddenly turned to the side and rear, with one hind leg for support, kunai was precisely placed in front of him.

"when!"

With a slight bend of Xue Hui's body, Gu Jie's assault was resolved, causing only sporadic sparks.

"The sword technique created by the teacher, I can use it is much more proficient than you."

While Xuehui was wrestling with Gu Jie, Kunai was naturally not as strong as a sword, but Xuehui didn't care.

Gu Jiezheng tried his best to suppress Xuehui, but suddenly sensed something, and with a sudden force, he quickly moved back and up with the help of Xuehui's power.

At that moment, on both sides of where Gu Jie was originally standing, two shadow clones of Xuehui appeared, forming a triangle with Xuehui's main body, not holding a weapon, but making chopping movements and momentum, Successfully frightened Kosuke away.

"San Ri Yue..." Gu Jie looked at Xue Hui and said the name of this move.

"The reaction is not bad, and the deciphering of the illusion is also very proficient." Xue Hui still evaluated it on his own.

"Okay, I probably understand, let's go back. I didn't expect the teacher to let you learn Konoha-ryu swordsmanship." Xue Hui stopped, this time he was really ready to leave.

"Wait, I haven't yet—" Gu Jie wanted to call out to Xuehui, but found that his feet suddenly couldn't control him. Gu Jie looked down, only to find that his feet had been firmly frozen by the ice on the ground.

"When?" Gu Jie couldn't believe it, he didn't notice it at all.

"After you're free, come back to Wochao Village and find me." Xue Hui's voice came from far away.

Leaving Gusuke there alone, Xuehui returned to Uzumaki first, and he wanted to discuss with Uzumaki Ashina and the others what Uzumaki should do during the Ninja World War before departure.

"Grandpa, in the past, as long as there was a large-scale battle, the surrounding civilians would also be involved?" Xue Hui asked.

"You are right. At that time, it would be fine if the civilians had the protection of the ninja family. Otherwise, once they were involved in a ninja battle, they would either be displaced or their families would be destroyed. Ninjas would not let these uncertain factors affect their own victory or defeat. Yes. Even our Uzumaki Clan was the same at that time, but we and the Thousand Hands Clan after Hashirama took charge took a more moderate approach."

Uzumaki Ashina explained.

Xuehui looked at the map of the Land of Fire, estimated the distance from the place where Konoha and Yunin invaded, then looked at the location of the Land of Uzumaki, and asked:
"Then, can we gather some refugees? Whether it's Iwanin Mistnin who is already fighting, or Konoha Yunnin who is about to fight, as long as they are within their fighting range, those civilians should take the initiative to leave if they don't want to die."

Xue Hui said, this is ready to dig into the corner of Fire Nation.

"It should be possible, but we need to make some preparations in advance, including secret propaganda, ships at sea, and supplies on the road." Ashina also looked at the map and thought it was still possible to give it a try.

"It seems that Grandpa also wanted to go with me." Xue Hui said with a smile.

"That's hard to guess. There are so many empty houses in that small port. Isn't this the right opportunity." Lu Ming scolded with a smile.
