Shadow of Leaf

Chapter 63 The Hunter and the Prey

"Okay, then Lianchuan, you have to be careful."

Looking at that Jonin, Ren Chuan Muxi nodded, responded, and walked towards the nearby woods.

But before he could walk in, Akidodo and Kotaro Sakai chased after him together.

"Mu Xi, the two of us go with you, even if we can't help you with other things, we can at least help you find some dry firewood."

Muxi Lianchuan looked at Hikari Akidō and Kotaro Sakai, nodded with a smile, and said, "Okay, then thank you two, let's go to the forest together."

After saying that, the three of them walked into the forest and found a place with a lot of dry firewood. They dispersed to collect firewood and piled them on the nearby ground.

Lianchuan Muxi went back and forth twice, and when he was picking up firewood for the third time, he happened to see Kotaro Sakai who also picked up the firewood.

While arranging the dry firewood, Muxi Hasukawa said to Kotaro Sakai who was standing next to him, "Kotaro, where did Mitsuko go?"

"Just now Tang Guang saw a few hares, so he went after them and said he would be back in a while."

"So that's the case, then let's work harder, and it's best to get the firewood done before Tang Guang comes back."

"Okay, let's work harder, both of us."

Nodding his head, Lianchuan Muxi put the firewood together, stood up and prepared to continue looking for dry firewood nearby, but at this moment, the half-cut blade of the short knife pierced Lianchuan Muxi's chest, and Lianchuan Muxi immediately sprayed With a big mouthful of blood, he turned his head to look at Kotaro Sakai behind him, and said in a hoarse voice, "Kotaro...it really is you!"

Hearing this, Sakai Kotaro's face changed slightly, and at this moment, Hasukawa Kishi, who was pierced through the chest from behind by a dagger, instantly turned into a large amount of ink and scattered, turning out to be an ink clone again.

Squinting his eyes slightly, Kotaro Sakai reached out and wiped his face slightly, and his face immediately melted like a melting candle.

Lowering his head, Kotaro Sakai took out a cat mask and put it on his face, then turned his head to look at the branch of a big tree nearby, but he saw Muxi Hasukawa standing on it at this moment, looking down at him .

"When... when did you find me?"

"Although I have been suspicious of you for a long time, I didn't confirm your identity until I gathered firewood just now, but then again, what should I call you? Sakai Kotaro, or just call you the cat mask?"

"As far as the cat mask is concerned, the name doesn't really mean anything to me.

It just makes me a little strange that you should be very aware of the gap between us, but this time why are you so confident and directly create opportunities to face me?
Could it be that you have successfully practiced some kind of ninjutsu, or do you expect the ninjas in the convoy to help you?

It's not that I'm too arrogant, it's just that if you want to rely on the ninjas in the team to deal with me, with their strength, even if they join forces, they may not be able to protect you. "

Lianchuan Muxi smiled, looked at the cat mask, and said: "Although I really want to face you and defeat you, but this time your opponent is not me, nor the seniors in the team, but... …them!"

As Lianchuan Muxi's voice fell, four figures landed around the cat mask one after another, faintly surrounding him.

Looking at the four people surrounding him, although he couldn't see the face under the cat mask, he could tell from the constricted pupils of his eyes that the cat mask was very nervous about the arrival of these four people.

"Akimichido Hikari, Uchiha Itachi, Uchiha Shisui, and Hatake Kakashi who is directly under Hokage's dark troop leader, it's really a big deal to dispatch so many people to deal with me.

It seems that the so-called return to Konoha this time was a trap aimed at me from the beginning to the end, but unfortunately I didn't find it, it seems that I was still careless. "

Looking at the cat mask, Hatake Kakashi said: "I have to say, your psychic beast is indeed very powerful, not only can control the mouse, but also can get the desired information from the controlled mouse, no matter the screen Sounds can still be detected.

And the most important point is that the mouse controlled by your psychic beast is controlled by the talent of the psychic beast, not Chakra.

This makes it impossible for either Sharingan or Baiyan to detect the abnormality of those mice. If I hadn't accidentally discovered the problem before, there is really no way to catch you. "

After listening to Hatake Kakashi's words, the cat mask let out a sigh of relief, and said: "It was really discovered, as expected of the copy ninja Sharingan Hatake Kakashi, who really has extraordinary insight.

That's right, my psychic beast mustache net does have the ability to control the same kind with brain waves, and the range of control is very ideal. The ability is just like what you said, allowing me to have countless extra eyes and ears. Sees it all, hears it all, yet is not easily spotted.

So I was wondering if you could tell me how you guys figured out what was wrong with those rats? "

"A real mouse is an animal that is very sensitive to danger. You and Muxi Lianchuan have a big fight. The scale of the ninjutsu used by the earth escape is so huge. The real mouse has already scattered and fled, but it is controlled by you. However, the mouse still stays on the battlefield between you and Muxi Lianchuan. This abnormality alone is enough for me to secretly investigate something.

In the end, with the help of the ninjas from Hyuga’s family, I saw some differences in the arrangement of the mice, and then found your psychic beast. When the suspicion of those mice is confirmed, if you want to avoid the detection of those mice It's very simple.

We planned this plan in the darkness where your mice as eyes and ears cannot see and hear, and wait for you, the mouse manipulating cat, to fall into our trap completely. "

Hearing Hatake Kakashi's explanation, the cat mask nodded slowly, and said: "It turns out that it is true. It is worthy of Sharingan and Baiyan. It really shouldn't be underestimated. I am too careless, but even if it is like this , It is not so easy for you to kill me, at least you need to pay a certain price."

As the voice fell, the short knife in the cat mask's hand suddenly filled with a large amount of Thunder Chakra, and the blue-white current flowed continuously on the blade of the short knife, making a sizzling sound, and the whole person was ready to go!
