[Hokage] Terukawa

Mio Isofu's roar is indeed the most terrifying mental pollution.The sound it made when it roared at the dough before was enough to give me a headache, not to mention that it has changed its target and started to focus on me and Kakashi.

Yes, that's right, damn it.Sanwei was targeting me and Kakashi, because just now, the dough finally disappeared.

We were calculated from beginning to end.

Kakashi, who was guarding me, pulled out his knife and swung it towards the top of my head. I didn't even bother to raise my eyes, so I lowered my head very cooperatively, and at the same time, I used my arms to hold Lin slightly in my arms to prevent being caught. The rubble that Kakashi chops with his sword will hurt her—in fact, from the moment we realize that Mitsuo has shifted his target, the fight is no longer a fight, but should be called a flight.Nobody wants to go head-to-head with Three Tails—at least not yet.

I held back a fire in my heart, but my mind was as calm as if a basin of cold water had been poured on it.So when Kakashi said that Lin should be handed over to me for protection, while he continued to use my knife as a cover, I didn't refuse.After all, judging from the current specific situation of the three of us, this is indeed the most rational and wise plan of action - Kakashi is already the only one who still has more than half of his combat power.

Kakashi swings the knife, I dodge and protect, the whole set of operations is as smooth as flowing water, as if I have experienced countless exercises before, but I know that my movements are actually revealing a heavy numbness and Stiffness, and this numbness and stiffness may become more pronounced as time goes by.I can feel that my body temperature is abnormally low at this time, and my eyelids are a little heavy...but fortunately, this is not a very difficult situation to overcome.

Even so, feelings of powerlessness are inevitable.After all, losing blood is much faster and easier than making blood. Now the sequelae of blood loss are gradually being exposed to me, constantly weakening my concentration and reaction ability.

Our greatest failure was our failure to break away from the warband in time, and the battle lines have now been stretched too far.

"Right! Hide!"

!

Kakashi's angry shout instantly dragged my sanity out of the short-term sluggishness, and in the next second, an extremely cold shiver climbed up my spine, and at the same time, it seemed to be accompanied by faint and broken spikes. whistling.In the blink of an eye, the threat of death almost stopped my thinking——

But the body's reaction is still there.

The already fluctuating reflection in the puddles on the ground was torn apart by my first foot stepping on the ground - I didn't have time to get the right amount of chakra on the sole cloth.I don't know whether it was sea water or rain that splashed up and wet my trousers again. The fabric clings to my ankles, feeling wet and cold.

As soon as I stepped out of the puddle, the sense of crisis that made my hair stand on end still hung on my back like a shadow of tarsal maggots.Without hesitation, I brewed chakra to connect with the next teleportation technique, but I was suddenly distracted by the slight wind sound from my side.

Out of an instinctive reaction, I tilted my head slightly and tried to avoid it - I didn't dodge, and in the next second, a warm arm wrapped around my neck, and then, the powerful force from the arm came back with an unstoppable force. The posture of resistance brought me straight to the ground.The sudden loss of balance made my steps mess up, and I fell to the ground immediately.

The sudden accident made my heart beat violently, but before I had time to react in my mind, a round and huge ball of light flew out from above and flew far away from my hair.I watched helplessly as the ball of light almost destroyed and annihilated all obstacles in its path with a destructive momentum, and those obstacles were forced to disappear the moment it touched it— — Not even a single scum left, as if they never existed.

I opened my eyes subconsciously, trying to gaze at and even remember all of this—whether the smooth light path that the light ball passed through, or the so-called "obstacles" that were completely eliminated—or maybe, it is also possible—the thing I stared at Just death itself.

... Tailed Beast Jade.

I think.

The duration of the photosphere can last for several seconds, but this duration of several seconds is not generally long in my eyes, until the photosphere completely dissipates, and its uncomfortable image still remains on my retina.I subconsciously raised my hand to rub my eyes, but the arm that had been wrapping around my neck from behind seemed to know my movements, and held me down with a small but lightning-fast speed. The forearm that had time to raise.

"Don't move, don't turn your head." Unsurprisingly, it was Kakashi's voice. "The only thing blocking us now is a low hill. If you move around, it can easily see us."

At this time, another hair-tailed beast jade landed on a forest diagonally in front of me. The strong light and sound waves once again attacked my vision and hearing, and for a while, my brain was a little bit blurred. The ground ached, and because of this, the woods instantly became open.

I see it.I said.It was bombing, the carpet kind.

I got used to it for a while, and when all the senses in my body were not very uncomfortable, I had the time to raise my eyelids again and look around with my eyes, and then I was surprised to find that Kakashi and I were nestling tightly on the ground. In a small puddle... the direction we came from is slightly lower, and there is a flat boulder growing obliquely above the puddle, so that I just stepped forward just now, but I didn't realize that it was in my shoe. A puddle of water just inches behind.

"Okay," I hoarse and lower my voice, "has it left the sea just now?"

"No, something must have happened when you broke the seal," Kakashi said, "Didn't you turn around when you ran just now?"

"I'm afraid of hitting a tree like you said," maybe because I suddenly felt a certain degree of relaxation, I actually half-jokingly said to him, "And, it shouldn't be 'I'm running', but 'We're running' .”

Kakashi choked on me, and couldn't speak for a while, only after a long while, he said "tsk" very softly: "You ran away as soon as I turned my head."

"I trust you."

Succinct and succinct - now that I say these words, I can already have a clear conscience.

Facts have proved that overcoming difficulties together can indeed quickly shorten the distance between people. However, even if the distance is shortened, it is a natural and inevitable result. If both parties hesitate to take the initiative to take a step, then this inevitable process will come to an end It will also be continuously extended by studying.By coincidence, it was Kakashi who took the first step by mistake, so it was only a matter of course that I surrendered my trust.It's just that I haven't adapted to my combat habits yet... but it will be a matter of time.

When the detonator incident happened, I would never have imagined that I would be able to truly trust him at the moment when only ten minutes had passed—not to mention that we are now tightly crowded together, close to each other. As soon as he opened his mouth to speak, I could feel the flesh on the back of my neck faintly burning.

drawbridge effect.I thought calmly, and... my body temperature is too low now.Once the adrenaline levels in the blood return to normal values, the blood loss symptoms will inevitably return to me, and by then, every second of our stay in this area will become dangerous.

...It is necessary to get out of this situation as soon as possible.

"Zhaohe? Zhaohe, did you hear what I said? You—"

"Ah? Sorry Kakashi, I was just thinking about the next route - what did you just say?" I came back to my senses and turned my head slightly.

"...I originally wanted to ask you about Lin's current situation." I vaguely noticed that his body seemed to relax a little, "Are you feeling okay?"

I understood, and replied, "I kept Lin in a coma. Her condition is fairly stable, but the puppet charm will need an operation. What about you? How do you feel?"

"It's mostly skin trauma, are you feeling okay?"

"I've lost more blood, and the longer I stay here, the more dangerous it will be," I said lightly, "so I'm thinking about how to leave here as completely as possible."

He froze for a moment: "Then your Anbu's companion...?"

"I don't know." I quietly reached out and pressed the wound on my ribs, and it seemed lucky that there was no more bleeding, "But they are not stupid, and their combat power is not low. It is not easy to kill them all in one fell swoop. ...If you have time to worry about them, you might as well worry about ourselves. If you go back smoothly, you can even ask the people from the intelligence department to reimburse you, and we can ask for a salary increase."

It was followed by a few breaths that were muffled deep in the throat. I guess Kakashi couldn't hold it back for a while, and was amused by my cold humor on the battlefield-of course it might not be, but who cares about this Woolen cloth?Anyway, with my back to him, I can't see his face and he can't see mine, so there won't be the embarrassment of face-to-face situations.

Three tails is the most important thing to pay attention to, but we can't forget that there is also a "dough" that disappeared from the earth, and the person "dough" waited for time may have also been there, but it has not yet appeared.

Calculated in this way, only Sanwei is actually in the light, and the rest are in the dark, and we still don't know whether the three of us are bright or dark to the enemy—no one can deny the power of "Dough" weird.

The more I think about it, the more I feel that the situation is not good, and I feel a little more irritable at the moment. In order not to let my emotions affect my next judgment, I can only forcibly divert my attention and warn myself that in this situation, maybe It is a better choice to take one step at a time.

"How long will that knife last?" I asked.

The standard ninja knives produced by Anbu uniformly are of good quality in general, and the hardness passes the test, but the toughness is really insufficient. Although it is more than enough for chopping flesh and blood, it is not suitable for chopping stones-but then again, knives are inherently That's not how it's used, normal people don't do this kind of thing.

"The tip of the knife is broken, the blade is at least [-]% curled, and the surface of the knife is full of cracks," Kakashi said, "It looks like it's about to shatter—"

Kakashi's voice stopped abruptly, without warning.

In an instant, my blood, which was already almost calm, felt boiling again.I felt chills all over, and I didn't care if Sanwei would find out, so I turned my head, wanting to see what cut off Kakashi's words - fortunately, the most frightening picture in my imagination was not It didn't appear - Kakashi was unscathed, but even though he was unscathed, his complexion was as pale as paper.

Almost at the same time, I noticed what made him pale.

——A huge and slender wooden stake was nailed deep half a meter away from our hiding place. From our angle, it looked towering and majestic. The angle was tilted, and the shadow cast by it against the light was drawn well Long—if its handlers were willing to tweak it a bit, I have no doubt it could have nailed all three of us in one fell swoop.

too close too close too close...

My pupils have probably shrunk into needles, but my sight is still firmly nailed to the stake and I can’t move it away. The strange fragrance that the grass and trees only emit when they are broken and broken lingers in the tip of my nose. Made me feel sick and dizzy all of a sudden.

Anyway, get out of here!

My hand groped Kakashi's fingers with great difficulty—it might be some other position, but it didn't matter, and there was a layer of chakra on the soles of my feet that I didn't know if the strength was appropriate. With this layer of chakra The sudden burst of thrust between Carat and the cold water stirred up by me, I almost used an explosion of water as a thrust for our transfer... Maybe there is a cover, but who knows if it can be concealed What about Sanwei's eyes?

I threw myself into the nearest bush in a panic, I had no time to check anyone's situation, but after my limbs finally touched the stable ground, I finally couldn't bear it any longer, blocked it with my hand and collapsed on the spot to vomit It's bloody.

I look up.

In my blurred vision, I saw slender and huge wooden piles intersecting on the sea level in the distance. This time, their angles were all tricky, and the scene presented was like a huge and paradoxical tomb .Jifu's roar, which was permeated with strong pain, shook the whole coast and my eardrums.

It seems... a thin sea fog is gradually rising.
