Naruto: Six Paths of the Senju Family

The chakra-encrusted feet stepped on the branches, and the scenery in the forest quickly receded beside the rope tree.

Next to them, Uchiha Mikoto and Hyuga Hizashi were also jumping on the branches in a ninja running style.

In his previous life, Nao Shu always thought this kind of action was silly, and he tried it himself.

Finally, I came to the conclusion that this kind of action of keeping the arms behind the back and stretching the head forward cannot maintain balance at all.

For example, when normal people are running fast, they need to swing their arms to maintain balance.

But when running at high speed, if you want to take something off your body, in order to maintain your balance, you have to slow down to offset the impact of other sudden movements.

After coming to the ninja world, I discovered that the senior ninjas who invented this way of traveling still had some basic basis.

What makes ninjas different from ordinary people is chakra.

Ninjas can attach chakra to their feet and use it to absorb trees or the ground, without using their hands to maintain balance.

With your free hands, you can take out items from the ninja tool bag and attack as you like. A powerful ninja can even form seals while running at high speed without affecting the speed and release of ninjutsu.

After forcing himself to explain himself in his mind, Naoki joined the Shame Ninja Run team with a clear conscience.

Just go with the flow! Not shabby

As the only white-eyed patient in the team, Hizashi would open his white eyes from time to time, carefully observing emergencies that might occur at any time.

Although there were troops clearing the way ahead, and there was a low chance that there might be enemies, he was cautious by nature and did not relax his vigilance at all.

Mikoto's face was tense, and she kept her head on the road without saying a word. Naoki didn't want to make trouble by talking to her, so she just hung behind the two of them and followed them leisurely.

Although the two of them were stronger than the average chuunin, they were still too young after all, and their chakra endurance and speed were not as good as those of adult ninjas. They had only advanced for less than two hours, and they could not see the backs of the team in front. .

The forest gradually became a little quiet, except for the rustling sound of the three people stepping on the branches, even the chirping of insects and birds disappeared.

Naoki felt something was wrong, so he speeded up a little, came to Hizashi and made a gesture to stop him.

"Hizashi, it's too quiet in the woods, I feel something is wrong."

When Mikoto saw Nawaki suddenly passing by the two of them and stopping in front, she also slowed down and stood beside them.

After hearing this, Hizashi opened his eyes and looked around. In Byakugan's field of vision, he could see the chakra reaction within a kilometer.

His eyes swept around a low-lying pool a hundred meters ahead, and several groups of chakra reactions that were completely different from the surrounding scenery appeared in Hizashi's field of vision.

"A hundred meters ahead, there is a chakra reaction. It may be an enemy who has escaped the search, everyone, be careful!"

Hizashi looked tense and reminded the two of them in a low voice.

Naoshu praised his wit in his heart, but didn't have much reaction. He gestured to the two of them and continued to walk toward the pool where the chakra was reacting, pretending as if nothing had happened.

The two of them even surpassed Naoki in the intelligence class at Ninja School. They instantly understood the meaning of Naoki's gesture and nodded understandingly.

"Oh, I'm so exhausted!"

"Look, there is a pool here. Let's rest here for a while before leaving!"

Hizashi let his hair down to cover his Byakugan features, and said in a pretentious manner: "Be careful. This is war time. Be careful of ninjas from enemy villages ambushing you."

"Alas! You are just too careful."

"Relax, it's no problem! This place is so close to Konoha, how could there be enemies lurking here?"

"Let's drink some water and take a rest. I'm almost exhausted from driving all the time!"

"Mikoto, can you get me some water? Please!"

With a look of kidney deficiency on his face, Naoshu simply sat down on the ground and refused to leave.

Mikoto's acting skills were also on the line at this time, and she showed a sweet smile to the rope tree.

"Okay, Mr. Shengshu! You sit down and rest for a while, and I'll help you get some water!"

After speaking, he took the kettle and walked towards the pool.

The three rain ninjas lying in ambush in the pool were communicating with each other using coded signals.

"A girl came over. She wasn't even wearing a chuunin vest. She must be a genin. Her clothes look like she belongs to the Uchiha clan. Sato, Kojiro, it looks like we caught a big fish today!"

"Yamada, don't be careless!"

"The genin of Konoha are usually led by teachers. Let's observe for a while before we talk. Don't fall into their trap!"

"yes!"

Three pairs of eyes stared at Mikoto, who slowly came to the waterhole to fetch water, without any precautions, as if looking at a pile of walking banknotes. The corpses of the Uchiha clan can fetch high prices on the black market.

A young Uchiha genin like this is worth much more than the average chuunin. And the other party is still a little girl, if she can be captured alive.

Seeing the girl getting closer and closer to him and the others, greed slowly overcame caution. The ninja named Yamada couldn't hold back anymore and once again sent a signal to his teammates to take action.

"It shouldn't be a problem, the two brats over there didn't notice it."

"Sato, you and Kojiro lurk behind those two brats and kill them. I will deal with this little girl."

"How about we move faster and make a good profit?"

The two teammates thought about it in their hearts, but in the end they still couldn't restrain their greed. They nodded silently and touched the ropes and Hizashi who were sitting on the ground together.

A cruel smile appeared on Yamada's lips, and when he looked at the Uchiha girl who was almost walking in front of him, the ferocity and greed in his eyes almost overflowed.

"Little Uchiha girl, let your uncle teach you how dangerous it is to be alone in the ninja world without the protection of adults! Hehehehehe"

Mikoto bent down by the pool and pressed the kettle into the water. With the movement of lowering her head, the two Magatama Sharingan appeared quietly. She still had a sweet smile on her face, but the cold murderous intent in her eyes was ready to come out.

Yamada grinned ferociously, and the greed in his eyes almost turned into reality.

He saw Mikoto bending down, exposing her body's vital parts in front of him without any defense.

"The opportunity has come!"

Yamada shouted in his heart, held the kunai in his hand, jumped behind Mikoto from behind the tree by the pool in an instant, and slashed hard towards the girl's snow-white neck.

"Pfft"

The sharp blade cut across the artery, and the sound of blood spurting reached Yamada's ears, and a trace of unconcealable ecstasy appeared on his ferocious face.

"Succeeded! She is indeed a fledgling little girl with no defense at all. It is fitting that my fortune will turn around today and Yamada will make a fortune!"

With the kunai in his hand, he was about to cut off the girl's head, and a sharp pain suddenly came from his chest.

Yamada's body froze, and his vision suddenly blurred. The girl whose throat had been cut by him just now and was spattered with blood was now intact in front of him, looking at him calmly with a pair of blood-red eyes.

Looking down at his chest, he saw a short sword pierced through his chest, and the other end was in the girl's hand. Yamada looked at the blood dripping from his chest in disbelief, and all the strength in his body quickly dissipated.

The magatama in Mikoto's eyes turned slowly, the dagger struck Yamada's chest hard, and kicked him into the pool.

"Didn't anyone tell you? Facing the Uchiha clan, when you think everything is going well, you are already dead."

"Is it an illusion? The Uchiha clan is indeed worthy of its reputation. It really shouldn't be..."

When Yamada was dying, one last thought flashed through his mind, and his consciousness completely fell into darkness.

A slightly crazy joy flashed in Mikoto's eyes, and she murmured:

"The first rain ninja!"

“More to come!”

"Mother, did you see it?"
