go to his hokage dream

Chapter 160 A New Beginning

"Be careful, this place has entered the other party's perception range, now turn off the radio."

In a laterite stone forest, two ninja teams were lurking behind the rock pillars, and Shikamaru, the leader, whispered orders to the people behind him.

Behind Shikamaru are Kiba, Hinata, and four ninjas in khaki tactical vests and wind curtains.

This iconic dress can be seen at a glance as Sand Yin from the Land of Winds.

It has been two and a half years since Sasuke left Konoha. During this period of time, the new generation of ninjas are growing rapidly. For example, Shikamaru is now a special ninja who can take responsibility for the ninjas of the two countries. Responsibility for joint action.

It is said to be a joint operation, but in fact, the goals of Konoha and Sand Yin are not the same.

Konoha here is naturally to get Sasuke back, while Sand Yin is more direct, purely for revenge on Orochimaru's Otonin Village.

Anyway, it is a big country in the Ninja World, and its own Kazekage was killed. If you do nothing, the Kaze Nation can apply to withdraw from the group, so no matter how worrisome the economic situation is, Sand Yin still sent a large number of elites immediately after the incident subsided , swept across the entire Tian Country.

Now the Yinnin Village on the bright side no longer exists, only Orochimaru and part of the essence are hiding like mice.

Just like the United States after 911, the revenge of the great powers will not stop because of this, but will intensify even more. If it weren't for the country of fire in the middle, and the country of thunder in the north, this group of crazy Sand Yin would like to take Tian Zhi The country directly swallowed it.

This is one of the reasons why Konoha will apply for cooperation between the two countries.

It must be ensured that Sand Yin will not turn the country of Tianzhi into an enclave of the country of wind, and it is not just because of Sasuke that he united to deal with Orochimaru.

Maybe it was for self-proof, or maybe the Chunin incident was wrong in the first place. Surprisingly, Sand Yin agreed to Konoha Fang's request without bargaining this time.

Now they are near an underground base of Orochimaru.

According to intelligence, someone in the nearby market had seen Sasuke, and after calculating the food consumption in the market, Shikamaru quickly set his sights on this mysterious and desolate stone forest.

For more than two years, he was often transferred to join the mission of exploring Sasuke, so that the current Shikamaru has a deep understanding of the power of Orochimaru.

Knowing that the first defense method of each of its bases is radio detection, Shikamaru immediately issued an order to turn off the radio when it was about to enter the opponent's detection range.

"Ya, do you know how many there are?" After carefully advancing a little, and stopping at a distance of about 50 meters from the underground entrance of the cave, Shikamaru turned around and asked in a low voice.

This distance is just right. With the five senses of a ninja, the risk of getting closer to cruelty will increase geometrically. At that time, it can only be communicated through tactical gestures.

"Akamaru." Kiba nodded, and patted Akamaru, who had grown into a beautiful big white dog beside him, signaling it to use its sense of smell to sense the enemy.

Akamaru sniffed the smell knowingly, and then drew a cross on the ground with his front paw.

"Two." Tooth lowered his voice and replied: "Cheng stood with his eyes crossed. It seems that he is the guard on the outermost floor. If he goes inside, he will have to wait until he goes in to find out. The wind direction is not good."

Since they are currently in the direction of the downwind, Akamaru can smell very limited, and can only determine the position of the guards in the cave.

In this kind of rocky area, the solid and thick rock walls greatly restrict the white eyes, and the entrance of the cave is semi-underground, so Shikamaru didn't let Hinata open the white eyes at the beginning, that would be a waste of chakra, good steel The principle used on the cutting edge is the same no matter which world you are in.

"Get ready!" Shikamaru nodded after receiving the enemy's location information, and then immediately began to deploy tactics: "Ka and Hinata follow me closely, and immediately attack them when I stop them."

After finishing speaking, he looked at the four of Shayin and said, "Landou, Yu, you stand a little behind. If there is an accident, use Fengdun to support us. Colleagues in the sealing class behind, please be prepared."

In front of the four Sha Yins are a man and a woman. The man is called Lan Dou, aged eighteen or nineteen, with short brown hair and a dull face.

Yuu is a girl about the same age as Shikamaru, with a light blue ponytail and a round face that looks cute and lively.

Among the two of them, Randou is the captain of the sand hidden party in this joint operation, Yu is a medical ninja, and the latter two are the members responsible for the seal.

After several battles with Orochimaru or Otonin, Sand Yin obviously grasped the rules, and the "results" of Orochimaru's human experiment created a lot of trouble for them in the early stages of the war.

Humanoid Chimera, Snakeman, Freak, and all kinds of weird abilities, the ninjas of Yinnin Village even have a nickname called "Precious Beast Troop" in Sand Yin, which shows how impressive they are.

It is just enough of those enemies with tenacious vitality, who will even explode after being defeated, so as long as it is a task related to Yinnin Village, Sand Yin will disrupt the original team configuration and install one or two ninjas who master the sealing technique .

When encountering those who don't look like normal people in appearance or ability, if you can beat them, you should prepare to seal them without saying a word. Regardless of life or death, grab them as trophies and bring them back to the village.

As for not being able to beat it, it goes without saying...

"Okay!" Landou with a dull face didn't talk nonsense, and directly agreed to Shikamaru's arrangement.

This is not the first time the two parties have worked together, and they know each other well. Although they are not from the same village, Randou and other Shayin all recognize Shikamaru's abilities.

Seeing that everyone has no objection, Shikamaru nodded, and led the group of people around in a deliberate arc, approaching the entrance of the semi-underground cave.

When he came to the door, Shikamaru, who was standing against the wall, gestured to Kibi behind him, and at the same time squatted down softly, and silently began to make mudras.

Ya nodded to show his understanding, took out a metal lighter from the knife bag behind him, covered it with his hand and carefully rubbed the flint to light it, for fear that the sound would alert the enemies in the cave.

Ya took out the lighter not because he wanted to relax with a cigarette at this time, that would be too nonsensical, he wanted to create a minimum of light.

The so-called light has shadow, light and shadow are complementary existence.

In an almost completely dark environment like in a semi-underground cave, Shikamaru's shadow is ineffective, so in order to control the enemy in the first place, it is necessary to create some light.

At the same time, it can also be seen from the side that the cooperation between Ya and Shikamaru is not once or twice.

Here are a few more digressions.

Explain why the team configuration here in Konoha is so strange. Not only did they not form a four-member team according to the prescribed standard model, but even Shikamaru, Kiba and Hinata are in two teams at all.

The reason is not complicated. The main reason is that Hinata's eighth class instructor Kami Shinobi is on maternity leave because of pregnancy, so the three of them, including Shino, are temporarily disrupted to support other groups.

This time, just in time for Shikamaru, the tenth squad was assigned to participate in the joint mission, so it was temporarily transferred to the tenth squad.

As for Shino, he searched the Orochimaru base in the other direction, led by Asma, and Choji and Ino were also there.

In fact, it's quite reasonable to think about it. The culprit who caused the red maternity leave was Asma, so she was obliged to take on the responsibility of leading the eighth class.

Well, now the book gets down to business.

A black shadow as thin as a gossamer protruded from Shikamaru's shadow, slowly swimming along the rock wall to the cave entrance.

"call--"

When the shadow line was almost submerging into the shadow in the hole, Kiba decisively threw the burning lighter in his hand without Shikamaru's orders.

Almost at the same time when the semi-subterranean cave was illuminated by the faint light of the fire, the seal made by Shikamaru's hand changed, and the shadow line as thick as hair suddenly swelled, turning into a pool of black with the light of the lighter. The ripples extending outward instantly engulfed the two figures inside.

"Successful!" Seeing this, Kiba was shocked, knowing that the enemy inside must be controlled by Shikamaru's shadow imitation technique at this moment, and immediately rushed in with Akamaru.

The same is true for Hinata. At this moment, a gorgeous blue dagger suddenly flashed in her hand, and at the same time she moved to prepare to rush in.

However, before the two of them left, Shikamaru, who was at the front, suddenly changed his face, and he didn't care whether the enemy would notice his words, so he immediately reached out to stop the two of them and shouted at the same time:

"No! This is not a person, but a trap, go back!"

It turned out that when Shikamaru tried to control the guards inside with his shadow, he felt that there was nothing in the cave when he came back, so he immediately realized that something was wrong.

However, even though Shikamaru had already reminded him immediately, he was still a step behind.

"Hahaha! Konoha and Sayin's offal, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" At this moment, the arrogant laughter came suddenly.

The sound reached people, and two black shadows flew out of the cave at the same time, and came over the heads of everyone.

It wasn't until they were revealed in the sunlight that Shikamaru and the others saw clearly the specific appearance of this strange being flying in the sky.

"puppet?!"

Shikamaru was terrified, at this moment he finally understood why Akamaru could smell the existence of two people, but the shadow couldn't feel anything, it turned out that there were two puppets wearing Otonin jackets in the cave from beginning to end.

At this time, two wooden puppets flew high above the heads of Shikamaru and the others, condescendingly aiming at them.

However, compared to Shikamaru, someone was even more shocking than them, and that was Ranto, the captain of Sand Hidden not far behind Shikamaru and the others.

At this moment, he looked up at the puppet in the sky with a face full of disbelief, and his dull expression was instantly broken.

"That's octopus balls and chain Yasha, Yuliang's puppets, be careful of the Qianbenyu they launch, it's highly poisonous!" Lan Dou reminded loudly, suppressing the grief in his heart.

He recognized the two puppets, which belonged to his former companion Yura, and at the same time knew in his heart that this companion might have been poisoned by the enemy now.

"Hahaha! It's too late, you idiots, go to hell!" At this moment, the arrogant voice sounded again.

And following this person's order, the two puppets in the sky simultaneously opened their mouths that occupied nearly half of their bodies, and immediately, thousands of puppets shot towards everyone like a torrential rain.

Faced with this almost unavoidable situation, Shikamaru made a decisive decision and wrapped himself, including Kiba and Hinata, with shadows, forming a dark shadow mask on the outer layer of the three people and one dog.

"Wind Dun Gale Palm!"

At the same time, Sha Yin was not idle, and the leaders, Lan Dou and Yu, used Gale Palm at the same time, and the turbulent air swept up against the rain of Qianben.

"Puff puff puff!"

Countless thousand copies were blown away by the strong wind, but compared to such a dense attack, the basic wind escape such as Gale Palm was really stretched, and it could barely protect himself and his companions. There were still a large number of thousand copies falling towards Shikamaru, hitting The shadow mask made by Shikamaru made continuous muffled noises.

I don't know if the bodies of those two puppets were all used to hold Qianben, at least tens of thousands of Qianben were scattered continuously, and the attack lasted for a full five seconds.

"Ding!"

Shikamaru had reached the limit when the last thousand bullets from the shadow mask flew to the ground with a crisp sound, and the pitch-black shadow mask melted away like ice and snow under the sun, and he was so tired that he could no longer sustain the chakra input. All of a sudden, he almost slumped on the ground.

"There, at seven o'clock!" Quickly reached out to support Shikamaru, Hinata opened her eyes, and at the moment the cover was lifted, she followed the chakra line controlling the puppet to find the real location of the enemy, reminding everyone.

Everyone immediately cast their eyes there, only to see a thick rock pillar there in a strange fluctuation, and a person drilled out of it.

"It turned out to be Hinata's supercilious eyes, so there's nothing you can do if you find out." The man was dressed in Otonin's standard attire, with long gray hair, and was about [-] years old. He only heard the man look at Hinata Mitsuru again. The face said maliciously and greedily: "So you are still from the Zong family, hehe, very beautiful eyes, I declare these eyes to be mine."

It turned out that this person noticed that there was no Hinata family's caged bird seal on Kokichi Hinata's forehead.

As he said that, the man didn't give the indignant Ya and others a chance to fight back, he clasped his hands, and the two puppets in the air were immediately taken back by him, and at the same time he jumped onto the top of the stone pillar beside him and shouted. One sound.

"Go!"

At this moment, a person appeared from the surrounding rock pillars. They had the same Otonin outfit, and they had ambushed here early with some kind of strange magic.

As if growing out of a rock, these people stretched out their upper body and pressed their hands on the ground, while their lower body was still inside the rock pillar. The scene was strange and shocking.

"Earth Escape · Earthquake Core!"

The ground shook violently at this moment, and under Shikamaru's horrified gaze, more than a dozen Otonin who protruded their upper bodies from the rock pillar launched ninjutsu at the same time.

"Boom--!"

Dust was flying and the earth was trembling. At this moment, the ground under Shikamaru's feet suddenly shattered into powder, revealing the huge deep pit below.

"what?!"

Before they even had time to scream, Shikamaru and the Sand Hidden Team felt that their feet were empty, and fell down involuntarily.

"Oops!"

However, the crisis is much more than that.

During the fall, Shikamaru noticed that there were metal spikes standing on the bottom of the deep pit tens of meters away. If they fell like this, everyone including him would not be spared.

"Damn, what should I do?" At this moment, Shikamaru anxiously searched for a solution in his mind.
