Konoha starts with a young bird

Chapter 135 Awakened Xiyan

"Huo Dun·Long Yan sings!"

The fire swept across, and a scorching breath rushed towards Zhou Lai.

call out!
A Kunai with a detonating talisman shot towards the opposite side.

"burst!"

Zhou Lai paused in his hand, and the chakra attached to the detonating talisman suddenly detonated it.

boom!
The explosion instantly bloomed in the middle of the fire escape, and the impact from the inside out made the entire ninjutsu completely powerless.The rest of Huo Dun's power fell half a meter in front of Zhou Lai.

The blooming sparks scattered wantonly between the two of them, Zhou Lai saw the other's terrified expression through the thick firelight.

This kind of ability to destroy an A-level ninjutsu with a detonating talisman is not something that can be achieved with a pure brain circuit. He needs to have a very accurate prediction of the speed and range of the opponent's ninjutsu, as well as your shooting speed and hidden weapons. The angle needs to be perfectly matched with your own insight.

The opponent is obviously not an ignorant ninja, so he is naturally aware of the difficulty of this kind of attack, and at the same time, he has further deepened his general understanding of the opponent.

"It's really strong! This guy is definitely not something I can handle by myself. It's better to retreat first. I hope Konoha doesn't send another blocking force."

As an intelligence agency of the enemy country, he pays special attention to Konoha intelligence.He still has a certain understanding of part of Anbu's intelligence, knowing that the other party is busy with a very important matter, and fully dispatching Anbu members. When he saw that only one Anbu came to assassinate him, he became more determined in his heart.

At the same time, he secretly rejoiced that Konoha didn't take him too seriously.As long as he doesn't go beyond the two Anbu teams to surround and kill him, he is still very confident that he can escape Konoha's pursuit.After so many years of arrangement, how could he not leave a means of escape for himself.

Although the opponent's strength really shocked him, he was still very confident in his own strength.

What he didn't know was that one of Anbu's most important tasks was to clean up the enemy's intelligence network in the village that had emerged recently because of Uchiha.

What is even more unclear is that Konoha has listed him in the highest danger level, and what greets him is a death warrant!
Jingle bell ~ jingle bell ~
A gust of wind rang the wind chime in front of the window, and the crisp and sweet sound kept echoing in his ears.Looking at Zhou Lai opposite him, there was also a hint of sarcasm.

Zhou Lai paused as he pulled out his ninja sword, and looked curiously at the wind chime hanging in the middle of the window.
It's not that he didn't observe this small object. On the contrary, the first criterion for ninja assassination is to judge the situation and create a favorable terrain.

But he really didn't feel any weirdness from the wind chime, he just regarded him as a special hobby of the other party.

Now it seems that he is still not good enough in investigation. If he is not strong enough, he may suffer a big loss today.

Jingle bell ~ jingle bell ~
The wind chime was still reverberating around, and circles of ripples visible to the naked eye kept circling in the air.

Some blurred images gradually appeared in Zhou Lai's mind. It seemed that a woman was seeing off her husband. The images continued intermittently. Zhou Lai didn't know whether it was the wind chime problem or his mental strength was too strong.

Seeing that Zhou Lai was hit, the other party didn't stop at all. When he mentioned Kunai, he stabbed at Zhou Lai's neck. Although the fight just now might have attracted the attention of the surrounding ninjas, he would not give up his low-key habit until the last moment. This is the supreme truth he has learned from his many years of intelligence espionage career.

"Pfft!"

The cold feeling of the weapon entering the body mixed with the sound of the body entering continuously stimulated his nerves, and he stared blankly at the ninja knife inserted in his chest.

His eyes were full of disbelief.

Clang!
Ninja sword sheath!

Zhou Lai sealed him into the scroll without any hesitation.The whole movement was done in one go, in stark contrast to the tense and dangerous battle just now.

Zhou Lai spread out another scroll in his palm, looked at the name on the far left of the scroll, checked it with the corpse in front of him again, and nodded.

"Jing Zongjiu, death!"

This was his last goal for tonight, and also the last one of Anbu's S-rank missions. Looking at the pale light in the sky, his face showed a rare tired look.

But there will be more challenges if there is stimulation. An ordinary life is another kind of comfort, but the alternation of life is more interesting, isn't it!

Zhou Lai disappeared in a flash, leaving only a slowly burning wind chime and an empty chair in the room.

Under the breeze, the huge shadow reflecting the wind chime slowly swayed on the ground.

Probably no one will live in this room for a long time!This is Zhou Lai's last thought before leaving.

Snapped!Snapped!
The wind chime gradually became fragmented in the flames.

……

……

Konoha Hospital
Zhou Lai held Xi Yan's slender little hand, and looked into her eyes softly.

"You're back."

Xiyan's weak voice came from beside his ear.The familiar voice filled his eyes with tears in an instant.

"When did you wake up!"

Zhou Lai's voice was a little hoarse, and he reached out his hand to smooth the purple hair falling on the corner of her eyes, with extremely gentle movements.

"Last night, but I was a little scared when I didn't see your figure, and I have been waiting for you to come back."

Xiyan stared at Zhou Lai's moist eye sockets also full of strange emotions.

"Last night, Anbu needed me to do some necessary tasks. I didn't expect to be delayed for a while, and I came back late!"

"Is it Uchiha?"

Xiyan stared blankly at Zhou Lai's eyes, and raised her hand to caress his slightly tired side face.

Last night when I asked Sano Zhou Lai about his whereabouts these days, seeing the hesitant expression on his face, he knew that Zhou Lai had definitely done something important during this period. For a big family like the Uchiha, Xiyan didn't want Zhou Lai anyway. Come at your own risk.

"It has something to do with them, but not much."

Zhou Lai stared at Xi Yan for a moment, and immediately understood what was going on.

"Don't worry about me. If Uchiha dares to attack you, he must pay the price. The person who hurt you is dead now. I will settle the account with them slowly in the future! Don't worry about this, I am strong enough to deal with it now them."

Under Xiyan's surprised eyes, Zhou Lai told the other party everything that happened these days, including the disordered relationship and the chain reaction.

"You and Uchiha Fugaku had a fight!"

Xi Yan didn't seem to pay much attention to these complicated matters, and the focus of the problem all went to Zhou Lai.

"How is your injury? Is it serious? Show me!"

Under Xiyan's worried gaze, Zhou Lai reluctantly and slowly revealed his wound that was about to heal to Xiyan.

Then spread out his hands, saying that there is nothing serious.
