Uchiha's Dimensional Invasion Plan

Chapter 567 Coincidence
A trace of fishy smell wafted into his mouth and nose, Takatsuki Izumi turned his head and glanced suspiciously.

I saw the light red floating light mixed in the stream slowly floating from a distance.

When the water slides over the pebbles, circles of tiny eddies are formed in the gaps, and a few light red bubbles float to the surface of the water.

Seeing this scene, Takatsuki Izumi's expression tightened, and he quickly glanced left and right, then bowed his body and hid in the bushes by the stream, quietly crawling upstream along the water.

As a ghoul, she felt disgusted after drinking corpse water or something, but she didn't take it to heart, instead she was a little happy.

Since the blood can flow along the stream in front of her eyes, it means that there should be a corpse not far from here.

The ninja who died unnaturally must still have a lot of supplies on her body. As long as the corpse is found, it may relieve her current embarrassment.

Of course, the most important thing is that maybe this place is already close to the battlefield. If she can meet the Konoha team, then in her capacity, how can she receive some special treatment.

In the quiet forest, apart from the very slight sound of the trickling stream, there was no abnormal movement heard. It seemed that the raging ninja war had nothing to do with this forest.

But Izumi Takatsuki knew very well that the more peaceful the place, the greater the hidden danger.

Otherwise, how could there be no insects and birds in an ordinary forest.

If it wasn't a war, then why would someone die here? Obviously, there have been troops passing by here, or there have been wars.

Takatsuki Izumi knew that once she encountered an enemy force, she would die, so she climbed this short distance very cautiously and slowly.

Not long after, a silent man slowly appeared in her eyes.

The man was wearing a standard combat uniform, holding a ninja sword in his hand, lying motionless in the water, a large amount of bright red slowly flowing along the creek at the neck gap, which looked extremely eye-catching.

The moment he saw the man clearly, Takatsuki Izumi's heart trembled, he subconsciously clenched his dagger, and slowly stepped back.

Although she had never experienced a large-scale war, her excellent killing experience prompted her to judge the current situation immediately.

From the man's clenched ninja sword, it can be seen that the enemy's attack was obviously unexpected, and he died in a tense state.

And judging from the wound on the neck gap, the man was most likely killed by a single blow.

With these two situations before, combined with the first time she drank the water, she didn't notice the smell of blood.

It can be deduced that the man died after she drank the water, or in other words, the time difference between her drinking water and the man's death was only the time of hundreds of steps of water flow.

The answers obtained through all kinds of conjectures naturally shocked her, so much so that she chose to back away without hesitation.

Just a few hundred steps away, someone died without a sound, and the most important thing was that the deceased belonged to Konoha like her.

This had to make Takatsuki Izumi feel terrified.

While retreating, she was also praying secretly, praying that the enemy had no means of detection, and had even gone far away.

The crawling movement was very slow, but the movement was very slight, almost non-existent.

As the corpse got farther and farther away from her, Takatsuki Izumi's mind gradually began to relax.

It wasn't until she returned to the place where she drank water just now that she let out a long breath and leaned against the big tree to relieve her nervousness.

After she calmed down, she began to think again, thinking about the scene she had just seen.

Konoha Ninja would die here. Obviously, except for the fact that the village has been breached, it can only explain one point.

That is, this place is already far away from the village, even away from the defense line, otherwise the village ninja would definitely die at the entrance of the village for no reason.

But since they have already left the line of defense, why didn't they find any scenes of large-scale battles?

If you don't consider the possibility that you have crossed the battlefield, there are only two points that can explain this situation.

One is that the enemy is investigating the investigation team in this village, because the war is about to spread here.

The second is that she went in the wrong direction. This may not be the main direction for the coalition forces to attack.

When she thought that the result was very likely to be a very suffocating thing like getting lost, she felt discouraged for no reason.

After rushing for several days, instead of reaching the destination, they got farther and farther away from the village.

If the agent knew about this kind of thing, he would definitely ridicule her because she was frightened in advance when she heard that the coalition forces were about to arrive, so she planned to flee the village.

It's not even possible to set her up as a model of shame, and publicly punish her in the name of killing relatives with righteousness, so that she can use her to demonstrate his prestige.

While distressed, Takatsuki Izumi turned her head to look at the upper reaches of the stream again. She was just temporarily avoiding the looming risk just now, and it didn't mean she would give up on the corpse.

Today's dinner has not yet arrived, and the supplies on that person's body may determine whether she will be hungry in the next few days.

Moreover, help the ninjas in the same village to prevent them from exposing their corpses to the wilderness.

No matter how you say it, it is considered a small dedication. As long as the tombstone is erected and words are spoken, it is very likely that she will escape punishment in the future, so she does not want to miss it no matter what.

In this way, she remained silent for a long time, and guessing that the time was almost up, she put her legs aside again and ran upstream.

It is different from the cautious one just now, because considering the war going on, the enemy will not stay in one place for too long.

This time she let go of her hands and feet, like a nimble leopard, she came to the corpse in a few flashes.

Without hesitation, she pulled the corpse into the bushes, then hurriedly opened the other person's small bag, and took out the military food pills and some dried meat pieces inside.

However, just as she was about to put these foods into her small bag, suddenly, a faint fragrance came from behind.

The moment he smelled the aroma, Takatsuki Izumi shrank his pupils, let go of the small bag without hesitation, and raised his hands.

Pa, a slight touch fell on his shoulder, Takatsuki Izumi panicked, squinted his eyes and was about to fight back, when he heard a very nice voice in his ear.

"After soaking in water for so long, the food has gone bad. Poor child, if you don't mind, please use mine."

Takatsuki Izumi stared blankly, a strange look appeared on her face, she was silent for a while, she still raised her hands without any movement.

The person behind seemed to have frightened her, and said in a gentle tone: "Little girl, don't be afraid, we are not bad people."

Hearing this, Takatsuki Izumi put down his hands and turned around slowly.

What came into my eyes were three figures in big black robes and black veils. Among the three, the leader seemed to be the woman who was talking to her.

I saw the woman holding a small bag in her hand at this time, looking at her with a correct manner, even if she couldn't see her face, Takatsuki Izumi could still feel the gentle smile under her veil.

Inexplicably, her heart warmed up, and she directly ignored the two vigilant eyes behind the woman.

He generously put away the short knife in his hand, took the small bag handed over, took out the food inside, and ate big mouthfuls in front of the other party.
