In the foggy late night, the silent cold moon hung high, half of its face peeking out from the gray-white thin clouds, looking at the world below.
The distance is dark, forested, and foggy.
Ryusuke, Naoki and Aburame Shiwei lay down on the hillside, with long grass covering their bodies. Through the gaps between the grass blades, they stared at the forest below.
This was already their third night of standing guard here. Fortunately, they were twelve years old and in good health. If they were other middle-aged ninjas, they would probably get rheumatism after just one night of watching.
"You said, is it useful if we just stay like this?" Naoki, who has always regarded himself as a ninja and a ninja with self-discipline, finally couldn't help but deserted during the mission and asked Ryusuke, who was lying three meters away, "I feel , it’s of little use.”
"It's best if it's useless. It's worse if it's useful." Ryusuke's answer was quite philosophical, but it was also true.
"It's better if it's useless..." Naoki thought about it for a while and understood what Ryusuke said. It was indeed "it's better if it's useless." If their position was effective, wouldn't it mean that there was an enemy invasion?
So it was better to be useless, so the rope tree pressed its patience and continued to stand guard.
Ryusuke frowned and looked at the mountains and forests below, feeling somewhat inexplicable.
Bursts of cold wind whistled through the forest, the fog completely rose, the entire forest was hazy in white, and a strange aura filled the surrounding area.
"Something's wrong, something's wrong." Ryusuke's eyes turned sharply, scanning the trees like radar.
"Zhiwei, have you found anything about your bugs?" He asked the Aburame Zhiwei next to him in a low voice.
"No." Zhiwei's answer was very concise.
rustle!
Suddenly, there was a scratching sound coming from the front. Ryusuke narrowed his eyes, listened attentively, and observed carefully. The forest filled with white mist gave him the answer - the leaves were rustling, sometimes on the left, sometimes on the right.
Ryusuke's eyes suddenly opened wide, and he saw something strange appearing in front of him.
It was a white mass.
It is like a vague ghost in the thick fog, floating and shaking, without a specific shape, as if it is the embodiment of terror.
Is it the wind, or...
Ryusuke was so horrified that his body tensed up and he suddenly held his breath.
"Ryusuke! Zhiwei!" Nao Shu reminded the two of them with a low voice. He obviously noticed something was wrong.
"Well, be prepared. If something goes wrong, sound the alarm as soon as possible!" Ryusuke held the kunai in his right hand, and already picked up the shuriken in his left hand, ready for battle.
There was no feedback from the bugs released by Aburame Zhiwei. Either it was nothing, or the enemy directly broke through the bugs' "reconnaissance". If it was the latter, it would be a big trouble.
Rustling, the extremely condensed fog was twisting and deforming, like rolling white waves, and suddenly condensed into a huge snake, entrenched in the woods, its huge white eyes staring at Ryusuke and the others.
What is this?
Without giving Ryusuke and the others any time to react, the white mist snake swayed, flew through the air, and pounced towards them. Ryusuke was startled, reacted suddenly, shouted "Send the alarm", his body jumped up from the grass, and with a whoosh, the shuriken in his left hand was thrown out.
The three shurikens drew sharp arcs and met the white mist snake, but heard a "pop" sound, and the shurikens penetrated the big snake and scattered it. The shuriken hit a big tree twenty years away without losing its force. It made three ding-ding-ding sounds and shook a big tree.
But the big white mist snake was just a mist. After it dispersed, a surge of oil condensed and formed, and it still pounced on it.
Obviously, Ryuusuke's attack was ineffective, and the white mist snake suddenly pounced and bit him. Aburame Shiwei raised her arms and flew out a cloud of insects, forming an insect wall to block the white mist snake.
puff!
The big white mist snake hit the insect wall and exploded, scattering thick mist and spreading like a thick cloud that enveloped Ryusuke and the others.
With a whoosh, the three of them reacted very quickly and quickly stood back-to-back in a triangle shape, watching the surroundings.
"Zhiwei relies on you." Long Jie said softly. The fog is thick, and they can't see their fingers. Ryusuke and Naoki have no sense, so they can only rely on Aburame Shiwei's insects.
No need to wait for Ryusuke to say anything, Aburame Shiwei had already responded, and the insect swarm spread out into a circle, flying all around to act as the first line of defense.
Rustling~Russing~
The footsteps were far and near, left and right, like ghosts that could not be caught, making the strange fog even weirder.
Rain ninja? Sand ninja? Or some enemy?
Ryusuke held the kunai tightly, and there was only the pounding of his heartbeat in his ears. His breathing speeded up and became thicker unconsciously, and his nerves were extremely tense.
One second, two seconds, three seconds, there was only the sound of footsteps, but no enemy attack.
not good! It's a scam!
Ryusuke felt as if he had been electrocuted, his head was banged, and he immediately shouted: "Scatter the bugs away, don't let the enemy slip away."
The thick fog is simply a cover-up. The enemy's real purpose is to get around it - to invade!
Aburame Zhiwei reacted instantly, stretched out her hands, and the buzzing insects flew out.
"Damn it!" The rope tree was also in a hurry, formed a seal in an instant, opened its mouth and sprayed out a waterfall, rushing with rapids, washing away the fog, turning the hillside into a puddle.
"Where, where?" The rope tree twisted its neck as fast as a windmill, but there was no enemy. There was no trace of the enemy on the hillside, on the grass, or in the woods.
"Has it already passed us?"
Impossible, unless the enemy can fly, how could it not leave any traces? So if they hide, where will they hide?
Aburame Shiwei said: "No trace of the enemy was found within 200 meters."
what's up?
The shortcomings of inexperience were completely exposed. The three young men didn't know what to do for a while. Should they spread out to search for traces of the enemy, continue to stick to their posts, or return to the camp to report the situation?
"What should I do?" As soon as Shengshu said it, his mouth opened wide and he pointed in the distance with a shocked look on his face.
Ryusuke hurriedly turned his head and looked over, only to see huge flames and thick smoke rising in the distance, followed by the sound of an explosion rolling like thunder, shaking the mountain.
That's the campground!
"Hey, hey, hey, no way, the base camp has been stolen?" Ryusuke was shocked, and suddenly felt a ridiculous feeling of being homeless.
"Quickly go, go back and provide support!"
Shengshu was anxious and wanted to return to the camp to support.
"No, there will definitely be no problem with Senior Fengfeng over there. We will stay here to prevent the enemy from attacking from east to west. We have already suffered a loss once, and we cannot make any mistakes again."
Ryusuke is very determined to stay here.
Aburame Zhiwei said: "There is no need to leave, the enemy is coming."
"What?" Naoki and Ryusuke couldn't help being frightened and asked hurriedly, "Where is the enemy?"
"500 meters ahead, on the way."
Whoosh whoosh—
Four figures, like ghosts, suddenly appeared on the tree. They were dressed in pitch black, and the forehead protectors on their foreheads were particularly conspicuous.
The forehead protector's logo looks like a hollowed-out and widened "i", or a bit like an hourglass. The upper part is the cover, and the lower part is the main body of the hourglass - this is the forehead protector of Sunagakure Village!
The four of them are the ninja team of Sunagakure Village.
The middle-aged man who leads the team is a tall and thin man with sunken cheeks and a face as slender as a horse's face. He is somewhat hunched over and has slender hands and feet. He looks like a sickly egret standing on a tree. His code name is "A".
The three people scattered behind the Sand Ninja Armor were relatively young, around their early twenties. They were all lean, their faces were not rosy, and they looked a little undernourished.
Their code names are B, C, and D!
Sand Ninja Armor grinned, revealing his jagged "yellow teeth", and said with a sinister smile: "Three chicks, what a perfect target."
He raised his right hand that was shaking like Parkinson's. It was covered with a finger tiger, and the blood stains of the enemy were deliberately kept on it. "I can't help but smash their heads, break their bones, and listen to them." Howling in despair..."
The three teammates, B, B, and D, all had twisted smiles on their sickly faces, and their three pairs of small eyes were glowing green, like rats in the gutter, which made people feel chilly.
This team of ninjas seems to be the kind of killing machine that has been immersed in killing for too long and has distorted its personality. Whenever it encounters a weak person or a newcomer, it will show its fangs crazily and use cruel methods to kill in order to obtain psychological satisfaction. , but then slipped further into the abyss of darkness - Ninja, either die at the hands of the enemy or die at the hands of yourself, there is no other path to fate.
Sand Ninja A made a gesture forward, and Yi, Bing, and Ding scattered in a flash and rushed out in a triangular formation. The distance became wider and wider, forming an encirclement. Then they folded halfway and lurked in the grass. Among them, he quickly touched Ryusuke and the others.
The three ninjas were like poisonous snakes, running through the dense grass, making almost no sound, and walking as smoothly as silk. In just a few seconds, they were lurking at the bottom of the slope, two or three meters away from Ryusuke and the others. From a distance, you can hear the voices of Ryusuke and others talking.
Ryusuke and the other three were discussing a plan on how to set up a trap to ambush the "invading" enemies. They were arguing very fiercely, their faces were red, and they were a little "no one else".
"Hmph! Great country ninjas are naive. Having your throat cut to death is the most appropriate end for the pampered ninjas." The second ninja secretly made a gesture, and the remaining two people nodded their heads, and the three of them jumped like arrows. He shot up and stabbed Ryusuke and others on the hillside.
It was probably too sudden. Faced with the sudden assassination, Ryusuke and the others were shocked. The three ninjas, Yi, Bing, and Ding, without any hindrance, quickly thrust the kunai into the throats of Ryusuke and the others.
"Die, you big country ninjas, bear the anger of resistance from the oppressed people!" The eyes of the Oto ninja were red, and his face was full of the joy of revenge.
However, his joy came to an abrupt end, and the tragic scene of blood spurting that he expected did not happen. With a bang, Ryusuke and the others turned into three pieces of wood.
Substitute!
He was horrified, and the expression on his face froze. Then he found that the hillside under his feet had softened, and his whole body was sinking like a sponge.
Fortunately, he was also someone who had experience fighting on the battlefield. As soon as he realized something was wrong, he wrapped his feet with chakra, stepped out, and stepped aside.
The other two also retreated.
When they looked again, there was a silly-looking kid (rope tree) standing at the foot of the hillside, smiling at them, his eyes full of ridicule.
