From Shiranui Gyōma's perspective, he could only see a young and broken body lying on the ground under the rising smoke.

"Is that... the Rope Tree? Something happened to the Rope Tree?"

This terrible suspicion flashed through his mind.

Before leaving for this operation, Shiranui Gyoma, as the deputy captain of the team, was specifically asked by the Sandaime Hokage to pay special attention to the rope tree.

But now, has that carefree young man with a sunny personality really died like this?

After a brief daze, Shiranui Xingma squeezed the kunai in his hand again, his eyes gradually becoming firm.

Captain Orochimaru is still behind, so these situations should be handled by Captain Orochimaru.

And he, no matter what, had to deal with the enemy in front of him first.

However, just as he was looking intently at his opponent, a short knife that came from his side quietly scratched his neck.

"I……"

The remaining consciousness gradually disappeared, and Shiranui Xingma's head fell to the wet ground.

The owner of the short sword was an Ame ninja wearing a gas mask and a gray Ame ninja uniform. He looked at the head rolling on the ground with indifferent eyes.

"Lord Qingyuan."

The Rain ninja, who had just been forced back by Shiranui Gyōma, saw the person coming, took two steps forward slightly, and called out respectfully.

The rain ninja, known as Lord Qingyuan, raised his head and looked at the broken rope tree corpse on the plain not far away, as well as the two Konoha genin standing in front of the corpse.

"The hastily laid trap really didn't work. Did it only kill one genin?"

With such thoughts flashing through his mind, his eyes passed over the genin again and looked at Orochimaru, who was running towards this side from the depths of the rain curtain.

Then his voice passed through the thick gas mask and ordered indifferently:

"This time Orochimaru, the disciple of the Sandaime Hokage, is also here. I will delay him while you take the opportunity to eliminate all the other Konoha ninjas."

"Yes!"

After getting the response from his subordinates, Qingyuan no longer delayed, used Shun Shen and rushed towards Orochimaru.

……

"How is this possible?"

In the rain curtain, Kurama Yan, who was soaked all over, stared blankly at the remains of the rope tree under his feet, his heart was in confusion, and he completely lost his composure.

He was obviously fully prepared.

There were so many Konoha ninjas rushing ahead, and they had dismantled many traps during the march.

And Shengshu, under his reminder, used the shadow clone technique, with more than ten shadow clones walking in front of the thunder.

He has also hypnotized all the rain ninjas who are fighting, and it is impossible for them to attack the rope tree again.

In this case, why was Rooshu still killed by the explosion as his original fate?

The ground that so many people have walked on has not touched the trap of the detonating talisman. Why is it that only the rope tree is touched?

This situation is almost like a movie Kurama Yan watched in his previous life.

【Death is coming】

An accidental death that seems like a coincidence is actually an inevitable fate.

"Does such a thing as fate really exist?"

Kurama Yan adjusted the glasses on the bridge of his nose out of habit, not even noticing that the lenses were blurred by the rain.

All along, in his understanding, the so-called plot is just a historical trend.

He even speculated that such a general trend would evolve into different parallel worlds due to small accidental changes.

Of course, such an idea is just a conjecture without evidence.

But no matter what, with his external intervention, this ninja world should not continue to develop in the direction of the original plot.

Obviously his arrival has changed so much.

"Wait, have I really changed that much?"

Kurama Yan was startled and suddenly realized this.

Why does he think that he has changed anything?

Those people he killed might have been destined to die in the Second Ninja War.

In fact, the characters who appeared in the original plot, including Orochimaru, the Third Hokage, and the named ninjas from the outer villages, are all alive and well.

In other words, if there really is such a thing as destiny, then the original plot may still happen.

Kurama Yan's eyes became darker when he thought of the accurate prediction of the Great Toad Immortal of Mt. Miaomu in the original work.

"Oh, nothing has changed in the end. When I want to reverse the direction of history, I myself may die quietly due to this mysterious fate."

After all, he, Kurama Yan, is only a mortal body.

If he had been the one who stepped on that trap, he would have died without a body like the rope tree.

For a moment, Kurama Yan felt extremely depressed, as if everything he did was in vain.

But before, his silent determination to save the Rope Tree had become a complete joke.

Even your own life may pass away like a rope tree at any time.

"Such a thing will never happen, Master!" At this time, such an auditory hallucination appeared in his ears.

Faintly, it seemed to be a girl-like clear voice.

"Who?"

Kuramayan raised his head suddenly, and then he noticed Qingyuan, who was gradually approaching and wearing a gas mask.

"I almost forgot that this is a battlefield." Kurama Yan sighed, thinking that he should wait until these rain ninjas are finished.

However, just when he was about to draw out the short knife behind him.

"What's going on...can't move your body?"

He was so horrified that not only could he not move his body, but he could not use hypnosis on other people.

Even he could only watch helplessly as the figure of the rain ninja on the opposite side broke through the rain and fog, getting closer and closer to him.

……

Qingyuan held a short sword and quickly approached the two young genin he had seen before, guarding the corpses of his teammates.

Uchiha Mikoto had already noticed him, and used her Sharingan to predict his direction. At the same time, she quickly formed seals with her hands, and her cheeks bulged slightly.

"Art fire escape ho fireball"

A huge fireball, wrapped in the mist evaporating from the rain, struck Qingyuan with rapid force.

"Hmph, just fire escape."

A contemptuous smile appeared on Qingyuan's face hidden behind the mask.

He is the right-hand man of Hanzo, the demigod of Amegakure Village, and an elite jounin.

In his opinion, Uchiha Mikoto's blunt attack was just a waste of chakra.

It was impossible to touch the corner of his clothes.

And his real opponent is still...

Looking past the two genin, Qingyuan looked solemnly at Orochimaru who was gradually approaching.

Before fighting that guy, let's get rid of these two genin first.

"Instant"

He formed a seal with one hand and disappeared instantly, avoiding the incoming scorching fireball.

In an instant, he appeared in front of Kurama Yan.

"Are you petrified? Hehe, he's just a genin after all."

Noticing the dull face of the young man in front of him, Qingyuan looked indifferent and slashed at him with his sword.

"Ayan!"

Uchiha Mikoto knew something was wrong, so she quickly took out a kunai from her ninja bag, trying to help her teammates around her.

But it was too late.

The rain ninja's teleportation was so fast that even her Sharingan could not capture the opponent's movement trajectory.

Uchiha Mikoto could only watch the rain ninja's sword swing down, feeling extremely desperate in her heart.

"Is Ayan going to die here too?"

The thought crossed her mind.

But the next moment, she was shocked to find that the hand wielding the sword by Yu Ren was firmly grasped by Kurama Yan.

At this time, Qingyuan, who was wielding the sword, was also horrified.

At first, he remained calm when his arm was caught. He tried to use all his strength to pull out his arm, and also tried changing his gestures to take the dagger with his other hand.

But he soon discovered that no matter how hard he tried, he would sink into the sea.

"What exactly is going on?"

He looked gloomily at Kurama Yan, who grabbed his arm in front of him. He had an ordinary appearance, and the lenses of his thick black-rimmed glasses were covered with water drops, making him look very dumb.

At this time, a strange smile appeared on the corner of Kurama Yan's mouth.

"This time, let Fei show you the true power of the Kurama family."
