Naruto: The Legend of Mortal Bone Ninja

"Haha...haha..."

Li Zhen's uncontrollable breathing made his heart aching. He was hiding in a leafy tree. The fact that his first tree climbing experience came from being chased really made him feel bad.

Speaking of climbing trees, Li Zhen, who had always been a quiet child, had no attraction at all.

"Where's that brat!"

"Look for it!"

"What, what should I do? It doesn't matter if the money is stolen, but if that thing is..."

"Shut up, being attacked and knocked down by a brat like that is simply a samurai's shame. If you can't find me, you can commit seppuku!"

"Alas?!"

A group of ronin in different costumes angrily passed by the tree where Li Zhen was hiding. Although they called themselves samurai, their skills were not as good as the samurai Li Zhen had seen on the battlefield. They were just a group of ruffians carrying swords.

With Li Zhen's current experience, this kind of thing can be done one-on-one, even against two or three people at the same time. It's just that the opponent has a numerical advantage. No matter how many people there are, it's not something Li Zhen can handle now.

"Well, is this what you're talking about?"

In addition to food and belongings, Li Zhen grabbed a black rectangular lacquer box from the good-for-nothing rogue. When he reached out and pressed it on the lacquer box to open it, Li Zhen seemed to suddenly think of something. For a moment.

He placed the black lacquer box on the too flat tree trunk, moved away and hid behind the tree, secretly took out a kunai, concentrated on shooting the kunai at the lacquer box!

The kunai missed the lacquer box and got stuck on the tree trunk.

"Tsk."

It was really difficult to hit, but Li Zhen felt that he could do it, and he would successfully open the lid and confirm whether there was any trap or other paranoid thoughts about persecution.

Although I have never practiced skills like projection, after staying away from peace, personally participating in battles, killing people, and developing some strength beyond mortals, I thought that this kind of thing would be as smooth as a matter of course.

Speaking of which, he has been very bad at shooting since before. He was invited to play basketball once because of lack of people, and no one asked him again. He often couldn't throw paper balls into trash cans less than two meters away. .

The second kunai fired was completely lucky and the lid of the lacquer box flew away. After waiting for a while, Li Zhen approached. If it failed, he would not have a third kunai.Originally, he carried two relatively convenient kunai just in case. Compared with such short and awkward things, Li Zhen's training was more suitable for using blades.

"What, that's it."

The lacquer box contained a letter that Li Zhen couldn't understand. He opened it with a kunai and looked at it carefully... Well, he really couldn't understand it.

I thought it would be some kind of hidden prop, but it couldn't be anything valuable.

Like a willful child, Li Zhen kicked the paint box off the tree trunk casually and refused to accept the side mission.

He had no interest in this, and he didn't think that a letter that was protected by an incompetent ronin and easily obtained by him had any very important value.Even if there was, his life was at stake now, and it was important to get to Konoha quickly.

As for whether those rogues could look back and find that the letters that were closely related to his and other people's lives were thrown there like garbage. Li Zhen couldn't create any bad taste because he didn't know the value of the letters.

Li Zhen was jumping and moving on the huge tree trunks in the forest. He had gradually left the cold climate zone of the Iron Country and felt warmer directly.I spent half a month on the road and although I was still within the Kingdom of Iron, I was indeed making good progress towards my destination.

Having said that...

Not long after walking, Li Zhen, who stopped to rest on a tree, was tired of the durability of this young body. Although he had been forced to grow up to look like an eleven or twelve year old, he still used the hands and feet of an adult on his own. More accustomed to it.

Eating the rice balls that he grabbed, Li Zhen, although he was picky about food, liked to eat white rice balls, and he easily felt satisfied with the food.He is a person who prefers simple and plain ingredients to those fancy and complicated dishes.Referring to the crude map spread out, all he could do during the trip to Li Zhen was to look for as many inhabited villages as possible and repeatedly compare the location with the locals.

Once you are used to the convenience brought by the development of science and technology, it is not easy to feel the huge psychological gap when you return to such a simple and troubled environment.

It would be great if you could use the mobile phone map to navigate as before. Li Zhen, who was repeatedly comparing and comparing things on the map he was writing and drawing, thought about it more than once. He himself is a nerd who lives between two o'clock and the first line when he goes home from work. How much does he know about life? He has no understanding of the city in ten years and has no interest in understanding it. His level of road idiot is only a little better than a certain green algae-headed swordsman.

If you deviate from the road outside home or work, you must take out your mobile phone to find a map and rely on increasingly powerful smart APPs to navigate.

In addition, it is outrageous that this country has no means of transportation. Although it is understandable in this era, transportation means such as cattle and horses are of little significance.

Do you have to rely on just one pair of legs to travel?Is this the world where the strong live?

Li Zhen counted the money he had robbed from the robbers. Those robbers did not do anything bad. Li Zhen, who robbed them unilaterally, was the bad guy, but Li Zhen never said that he was a good person. thing.

The reason for needing money is naturally that Li Zhen is not strong enough to ignore the rules and needs to spend money to plan his trip.

Of course Li Zhen prefers good people to scum-like gangsters, but this doesn't mean that he likes to be a good person.

He has been a good guy once, and after Erzhoumu gained strength, he wanted to change his way of survival.

Like a villain, Li Zhen wants to be crazier than anyone else and freer than anyone else. to survive.

The gang of bandits, who were fleeing from the chaos and caused by the war, moved like headless flies in a direction that was not marked on the map several times with uneasiness and uncertainty. Finally, they received scant information from the next village and changed again. Forward direction.

Physical and mental fatigue appears on people's mental outlook. Looking at the mountains and running to death, looking at the small piece of paper marked on the map bordering the Iron Kingdom and the Fire Kingdom, how big it will be when people use their own feet to measure it. A long way to go.

When I set out, I thought that as long as I moved forward, I would reach my destination. Such optimistic thoughts became a bit ethereal under the torture of reality, and my consciousness began to blur.

Just stop.

Already tired, helpless, and clueless, this incompetent kid has reached his limit.No one will blame you for giving up halfway. Even in Konoha, there is a possibility that even Tsunade will be helpless due to this restriction.

Li Zhen, unkempt and disheveled, was dressed in rags. At first, he maintained a temporary clean appearance to maintain his mental state, but now he no longer has that extra energy.

He held a wooden stick he made in both hands and stepped on rotten shoes that were oozing with blood. Every step he took would cause excruciating pain from the soles of his feet. If he lost the wooden stick in his hand, he might never be able to stand up again. Come on.

In fact, the thought of giving up will arise in his heart every moment and with every step, but Li Zhenzhen knows what he needs, has a clear purpose, and knows what giving up means.

Li Zhen's spirit once again prevailed over his body, driving him to move forward.

But he strayed from the path.

Li Zhen did not cross the shortest path from the Iron Country to the Fire Country as he expected.

In fact, if he really takes the right route, he will be greeted by the Konoha border guards who will not let even children go easily.

After walking out of the cold zone, the surrounding scenery changes from plains and icebergs to mountains and countryside. The howling of the cold wind that kills all things is no longer heard in the ears. Only the crisp chirping of birds and insects clearly speaks of infinite vitality.

Li Zhen's numb will did not notice these very obvious changes. The constant self-hypnosis in his heart made him move forward mechanically. If no outsider interrupted his current state, the overly tight bowstring would break at any time.

Unfortunately, such a "person" did not appear.

He kept moving forward, not knowing whether it was the clouds that attracted Li Zhen, or Li Zhen's will that attracted the clouds.

Only crazy people who seek strength can reach here with their firm will.

The secret realm between reality and illusion opens the door.

Its name is Longdi Cave.
