[Hokage] Terukawa

"Bang".

A slight bang spread over the entire gravel beach in the next moment. The sound sounded a little strange. If it had to be described, it was probably similar to the sound of someone drying the bedding vigorously beating the bedding under the sun. The result of the behavior is that the bedding will make a soft "bang", and then fine and dense dust will rise into the air-if someone is willing to wait and see in the sun, they will probably feel that this picture of thousands of dust is light. The scene of the slow landing also has a different kind of romance.

——The current gravel beach looks very "romantic" with sandy soil——because my action of patting the "quilt" is too big and too high-profile, but I am also a quality airer after all, so, All the sand and soil raised up by my "slapping" were firmly suppressed by me below the height of my knees.

If he is not in mid-air or on the surface, where else can he be?

Since you can't use subtle detection methods, don't blame me for being simple and rude.

The range of effect of a slight shake of the sand on the surface of the ground is as wide as hundreds of meters.Logically speaking, the scope of this technique should not be so large, but after all, I don't know where the spy is, so the scope of the technique should be as large as possible. The second is that the gravel beach is near the coast and the groundwater The veins are extremely rich and abundant, even if there are three tails entrenched on the side, the terrain is still in my favor—in just one breath, my hydrophilic chakra followed the veins of the groundwater, and quickly covered the entire piece of gravel beach.

The sand and soil on the surface of the entire gravel beach shook violently at that moment. This scene is truly spectacular, but I, the instigator, did not have any interest in admiring it. After that, he raised his hand and sent a flash, and in the blink of an eye, he backed up a few positions, picked up the little girl Nohara Lin, and then moved a few meters away.

"Go!" I said in a deep voice, "Take the knife to cover me, go to the cypress forest, pay attention to the rear!"

Kakashi reacted extremely quickly, and within half a second of my voice falling to the ground, he had already caught up with him, but his tone sounded a little cold: "Terukawa... Yasaka Terukawa! I saw what you said !"

thing?

For a while, I couldn't figure out what kind of description this could be, but my intuition told me that it shouldn't affect my judgment, "No matter what it is, as long as he doesn't come close to it, don't bother - let Sanwei Isofu deal with him!"

"'He'? I think 'it' would make more sense," Kakashi said calmly. "It doesn't look like a person."

I stretched out my forearm to block the oncoming cypress branch in our rush-it would be bad if I accidentally scratched Lynn's face.Immediately afterwards, I scanned the surroundings, trying to find the traces of my teammates who had been hidden. Not to mention others, at least the perception of the two perception ninjas, owl and tortoiseshell, would not miss us.

"It doesn't look like a person?" I said, "Could it be some weird blood successor unique to the country of water? There are many blood successor ninjas who don't look like humans."

"...I don't think so," Kakashi hesitated for a moment, "That thing was hit by the water jet stroked by Mio Iso at the first hit... or it was broken, I could see it clearly, But it recovered in an instant, and the texture looked strange, more like... dough than flesh and blood."

dough?WTF?Dough can-

A violent roar interrupted my thoughts at the right time, and the terrifying sound bombarded me for a moment, and even the inside of my head began to bulge and hum.I subconsciously turned my head to look in amazement, and I was not very surprised when I saw the light ball that was ready to go out in Sanwei Jifu's mouth, and not far from its feet, my eyes locked on it again. The "it" in Kakashi's mouth—"it" is really recognizable—whether it is its pale complexion, or its star that has been smashed to the point where only half of it is left, but the fuck is it A brain that is still repairing itself at a speed visible to the naked eye.

I couldn't help but swear, but the funny thing is that even I can't tell whether it was the tailed beast jade or the damn "dough" that hit me more.

The world's great wonders.The world's great wonders.The world's great wonders.

I murmured a few words back and forth in my heart, and I heard Kakashi's angry shout of "Look ahead, you are about to hit a tree", so I wanted to turn my head back so as not to lose face by hitting a tree, but I didn't want to The tattered "dough" suddenly disappeared in mid-air. Immediately afterwards, I saw the foggy corpses scattered on the shoal move slightly—to be precise, it should be squirming.

Tailed Beast Jade, "Dough" disappears, Mist hides corpses... Everything is too long, everything is too fast.Obviously it was such a drastic change, yet all the events started and ended at the same moment like lightning.A certain nerve in my brain suddenly began to scream and scream, and an ominous premonition of unknown origin suddenly filled all the air around me, filling and squeezing my lungs like salty water vapor spreading.

"..."

I gritted my teeth and tilted my head slightly to let the branches pass over my head, but some small branches still left marks on the side of my face.

Kakashi didn't yell at me anymore... Did he find something too?And that suffocating sense of foreboding... Where did it come from? ?

Move... move!

The line of sight that has always stayed on the pile of corpses finally caught something more valuable - the corpse stretched out two hands, one white and one red, the white one was as white as dough, and the red one was as red as a Soaked in blood, and then the two weird hands began to seal.

Human beings can have blood red, but is that whiteness the kind of white that human beings can have? ... "dough"?Is that it?be it.

I didn't have time to think about it any deeper. I stared at the seals formed by those hands and felt more and more familiar. It is certain that I have never used this technique, but I must have seen it. However, the ninjas in the battle are faster than each other. , where do I have a chance to see clearly?

...so the timing of my seeing this set of handprints must have been unusual.

Those funny and weird hands finally stopped, staying at a weird "si".The reason why this "si" is called weird is because of its delicate and distorted finger shape - most of the finger bones of the dead body have already been broken into pieces.

A dead body—yes, the dead cannot be brought back to life. I still firmly believe that the seal thing is still a dead body in essence, and the strange phenomenon just now is just driven by some other things...for example, "dough".

India has let it finish, what happens next?

"... Senior Yasaka?"

Lin, who was held in my arms, suddenly moved.

"Lin?" I froze for a moment, but Kakashi turned his head with excellent hearing, "Wake up—"

Like some kind of instinct in the dark, I suddenly twisted my body—almost at the same time, my heart suddenly felt cold and painful, and my eyes were instantly covered with a thin black mist.But Kakashi's voice stopped abruptly, as if his throat was suddenly squeezed tightly, and even a little wind passing through the vocal cords could not come out.

I coughed, and my hands seemed a little weak under the severe pain, but I still couldn't die... The twisting just now made the angle of the kunai puncture narrowly avoid the heart, barely It got stuck in the gap between the ribs.

My hands were like claws, and I pinched Lin's wrist like lightning to force her to let go. Unexpectedly, she refused to let go. Even though the wrist bones were already cracking, she still held Kunai all the way down, trying to squeeze my body resulting in longer and deeper wounds.

I silently said a word of apology in my heart, then broke her wrist bone with a "click", and pinched her forearm with the other hand, and threw her a few feet away with great skill—the background sound was Kakashi, who finally realized what happened in front of him, said "Lin you?!!".

"Don't panic, it has nothing to do with her." I took a few steps back and supported Kakashi's shoulders, feeling my voice trembling, "It should be the puppet control symbol...the one on her heart, which was... ...that thing was activated just now."

"How are you?" His voice was small and extremely dry, "Bastard, why are you bleeding so much?"

"It's not a big problem for the time being...I can stop the bleeding by myself, but it will take time...The rest of the battle will be left to you, and I need you to help me hold it back."

I tried my best to hold my breath, and my voice was calm, but I still heard a slight "click" sound... Is it Kakashi's teeth chattering?

"First solve the puppet charm." Kakashi said.

You're right, but...it's not that simple.not that simple.

I thought to myself, what about Sanwei?What about Sanwei? I don't know if the "dough" is still there, but if it's gone, isn't Sanwei's next target going to be us?

Just outrageous.I thought that if all the people in Kirigakure were dead, the thing in Lin's heart would be calmed down temporarily, but I didn't expect it to be waiting for me here.

And where did the Anbu people go?Why are they still not here?Was it held up by someone else?

"Puppet charms are only useful if they are attached to key parts such as the heart...but we don't even know how those sons of bitches of Kirigakure attach them now," I said softly, "whether it is the heart or the spine, the above We must be cautious when dealing with things that belong to us... After all, none of us can afford the consequences of a mistake."

"I'm almost..." Kakashi stopped for a few seconds after speaking halfway, "In this case... can Lin's sanity be awakened?"

My focus is on the second half of his sentence: "It should be possible."

——Only the puppet talisman attached to the skull can control the mind, but in this way the wound is too big and difficult to hide, and secondly, the talisman attached to the skull is tantamount to killing the victim’s brain, instead it will make the victim’s movements Rigid and inflexible.As for Lin's agility just now... there will be no problem with her sanity, the only possibility is that she was forcibly awakened from the coma by the effect of the puppet talisman, and her sanity is quite muddled.

The "dough" should not disappear - this point can be understood from the fact that Sanwei has heard it all the time, but he has never directed his furious roar at our direction.To be honest, this confuses me a little bit. It just made a seal by possessing a corpse to awaken the puppet charm in Lin's body. Although it is insidious, it is smart enough and effective. If it is really as we guessed, It's a clever enemy who wants to put us to death... Then why didn't it just escape the earth and disappear, so that Sanwei's attention could be diverted to us?

Is it because the earth escapes and the earth is silent?

Now is not the time to get to the bottom of it, wait until you have a chance to experiment.

Kakashi's call was indeed heard by Lin, and Lin, who was finally sober, could not speak, but she couldn't stop her tears.The series of attacks she made due to being controlled did not stop for a moment, and the angles were tricky and fierce, which seemed to be completely different from her previous fighting style.Being able to use only one hand is naturally her disadvantage, but Kakashi also seemed to be constrained because of her. Although she did not lose the wind after a few rounds, she did not make any progress. Embarrassed.

In the interval of a certain offensive, Kakashi landed lightly beside me, looking a little calm-but I noticed that his hand holding the knife was clenched white, so that he was used to fighting His hands were trembling a little.

"Terukawa... Terukawa," Kakashi said, "I, I heard Rin speak."

"she says……"

"She said let me kill her."

"stupid!"

I scolded angrily: "Did you see that hand of hers? Is it impossible to use it?"

——Isn't the idea of ​​breaking her limbs and bones delicious?
