Living in Naruto

"Ga, Hinata, you go back and inform Shikamaru that we have fallen into a trap, I will handle it here!"

Ashima realized that something was not going well, and the ominous premonition in her heart became more and more intense.

"Too late!"

After the ghost-faced man transformed, his voice became terrifying and unpleasant, like rubbing metal, "Everything will be a foregone conclusion soon, you can't stop it!"

"Tch!" Ashima gritted her teeth, "Hurry up, Ya, Hinata, or it will be too late!"

"Yes, Teacher Ashima!"

Kiba and Hinata didn't hesitate and immediately took action and rushed to Tanshu Street.

But things started to go in a bad direction. Ashima had just noticed that something was wrong. Shikamaru and his team had already rushed to the scene and met face to face with Kiba and Hinata who were just about to take action.

"Shikamaru, we've fallen into a trap!"

Teeth growled, and Ashima already understood the situation when she issued the warning.

"what!"

……

Everyone quickly solved the ghost-faced man, but at the same time they also discovered that the ghost-faced man was also one of the infected, but his power was unusually strong.

After discovering that they had been tricked, everyone hurried back to Tuanchu Street, hoping to prevent the situation from getting worse before it got serious.

But it was obviously too late. Duanzhu Street was in chaos at this time, and there were traces of battles everywhere. Medical personnel were running around to treat the wounded.

"What on earth happened..."

Ino looked at the scene in front of her and couldn't bear it.

"Go to the City Lord's Mansion first to understand the situation!"

Shikamaru frowned, the enemy was more cunning than imagined...

They already understood what happened. While Shikamaru and his party were acting, attacks occurred one after another on Tanshu Street. Afterwards, the deputy city lord arrived in time with the escort team to prevent the situation from deteriorating further.

"Damn it, I was tricked!"

Ya punched the wall with hatred, venting his dissatisfaction.

Shikamaru became quiet at this time and found a place to sit down and think quietly.

"Shikamaru, what should we do next?"

Kiba turned to look at Shikamaru, asking what to do next.

"Don't disturb him," Ashima patted Xi Ya on the shoulder, "Let him think quietly for a while, trust him."

Did the enemy know our actions in advance...

It's too much trouble, that's why I don't like being a ninja, but...

In this way, the enemy's purpose is determined, right, the position of city lord, then...

Shikamaru frowned deeply. The enemy was in the dark and we were clear. This was a headache in itself, because he didn't know where the enemy would attack from.

After stretching a lot, Shikamaru stood up, patted the dust on his body, and walked towards the crowd.

Ashima saw that Shikamaru seemed to have regained his energy, "Did you find anything? Shikamaru?"

"Nothing was found, but I probably confirmed a few things."

"That's it..." Ashima didn't ask Shikamaru what he was sure about. At this time, he knew very well that all he needed was to believe.

"Next, we will be nervous..."

"Hinata, Shino, I leave the investigation mission to you. You are the most suitable for such a job here."

"Teacher Ashima, I want a detailed distribution map of the infection situation and missing persons, please."

"Teacher Kurenai, Ino, I leave the safety of the City Lord's Mansion to you."

Shikamaru arranged everyone's tasks in detail, and everyone had their own division of labor.

The detailed intelligence map soon reached Shikamaru. Shikamaru spread out the map and analyzed the situation.

"The enemy never appears, and all we face are infected people. In this case, I have an inference."

"The first infected person is most likely not what appears in the intelligence. The Ghost Faced Man we encountered may be one of the earliest infected people."

"So, why does the enemy always let the infected people act on their own? The concealment is there, but I have also considered whether there are more reasons."

"First of all, let's make an assumption. Assume that the enemy is inconvenient to move. Then many things will make sense."

"Teacher Ashima, you just said that the infected person of the ghost mask talked to you, right?"

"Yes, I said a few words," Ashima nodded, "Is there anything wrong with that?"

"Well, indeed, but it's just my guess now."

"The person talking to Ashima should be the enemy himself."

"Everyone should have seen the infection situation of the villagers. All infected people are in a state of unconsciousness, leaving only the instinct of attack. However, the Ghost Face Man is different."

"Ghost-faced people can talk and are obviously stronger than ordinary infected people. So we can divide infected people into two categories."

"The first category is the unconscious infected people similar to villagers. This category only has the instinct to attack, is uncontrollable, and has weak attack power."

"The second category is the ghost-faced man. He is controlled, can talk, and has powerful attack power."

"Then, we can guess whether the first type of infected person is one of the first seven people to disappear?"

"If so, then I am somewhat certain about the enemy's abilities."

"Teacher Ashima, I'm going to ask you to investigate and find out the identity of the ghost-faced man and whether there are any other missing persons."

Ashima nodded, said nothing, and led Konoha's inspection team to investigate.

After the explanation, Shikamaru let out a long sigh. After all, the information was still too little, and it was only inference at the moment. Everything had to wait for the results of the investigation to come out.

At night, Shikamaru was blowing wind on the tower alone. Order had been restored in Tanshu Street. The lights were on and people were coming and going on the street. It seemed that no attack had occurred during the day.

"Shikamaru, you are here."

"Hey, Hinata, Shino, it's so late and you still haven't rested."

"Well, my Byakugan can detect chakra, so I think I should work harder to avoid another accident." Hinata's face was red. It was rare for her to say so much in one breath as she rarely spoke.

"My bugs are also familiar with the characteristics of abnormal chakra and can help."

"I see..." Shikamaru smiled, "I'm really lucky for you."

"No, it's nothing..." Hinata lowered her head, "Shikamaru also worked hard, so..."

"Ah, just do your best." Shikamaru looked up at the bright moon in the sky, "The moon will be full in three days. The enemy will definitely take action at that time, so we must be prepared!"

Shino saw that Shikamaru had already made some guesses about the enemy's actions: "Do you have any guesses about the enemy's actions in three days?"

"Ah, probably..." Shikamaru nodded, "If predictions are correct, missing persons should continue to appear in three days. Please, be careful..."
