[Hokage] One tit for another

Now that Naruto has completed his tree-climbing practice, it is only natural for us, the seventh squad, to continue protecting Dazna.

I obviously haven't fully grasped "Chidori", okay? !

During the practice, I came up with a lot of new ideas, but unfortunately I didn't have enough time and practice to turn my ideas into reality.But I am not in a hurry to leave the team to practice alone, so I will go to the bridge with everyone to protect Dazna.

Because Naruto consumed too much chakra the day before and liked to sleep late, we simply left him at Dazna's house, which happened to protect the mother and child.

As we walked down the street, workers kept coming to apologize to Dazner and ask to quit the construction.

In fact, there are fewer and fewer people building the bridge, and even the remaining people are just doing their own work in silence. On the whole bridge, there is no such enthusiastic shouting on the construction site as usual. It's just a constant beating sound, one after another, vibrating along the bridge piles all the way, causing ripples on the water surface.

Only Dazner remained optimistic, as he said, there was only one last point left on the bridge.

This is really a dilapidated country, the streets are full of dilapidated buildings, most of the shops are empty and full of dust, and the few open shops are just a listless boss , and a few perfunctory commodities.

More people sat on the street in scanty clothes, and children, too, huddled in the corner of the street in thin clothes, watching the people coming and going with wide eyes.

The people living in such a country are also lifeless. They just keep their eyes open in vain, but they cannot see tomorrow or themselves.

——Just a businessman named Cardo robbed all the vitality and courage of the people here.

I watched another person walk in front of me in silence, his face was full of exhaustion, pain and guilt, but he left according to Kado's wishes after all.

It's incredible.

They were robbed of hope by Cardo, and everything was robbed, don't they hate it?

It must be hated.

It's just that now this kind of hatred is suppressed by their self-deception, and I'm looking forward to seeing what it will look like when this kind of hatred breaks out.

I withdrew my gaze from looking around, and frowned a little anxiously.

For some reason, I always have a bad feeling today.

Counting the time, Buzhan's body will soon be healed, and it is very likely that he will bring that strange boy to fight with us.

But I don't think this is a bad thing, and it should not fall within the category of "bad premonition".

When we finally reached the bridge, looking at the mess, I suddenly understood what I had overlooked.

The workers who originally built the bridge fell unconscious on the ground, nails and hammers were scattered all over the ground, and the bridge was lifeless and silent.

"What, what's going on?!" Dazna cried out in astonishment, and he hurried forward a few steps, trying to help the workers who fell to the ground.

"Don't move." I reached out to stop him.

These workers were not dead yet, but were beaten and seriously injured.Looking at the traces left behind, it was not the ninja who wounded them, but the samurai.

Is it Kado's subordinate?Those armed groups?

Damn!

Since Kaduo has hired the famous Rebel Ninja Zabuju, he should have a certain chance of winning the bridge. I thought he wouldn't go around Zabuju and attack directly, but I didn't expect...he doesn't trust Zabuju's ability at all. ?In other words, from the very beginning, he didn't pay attention to Zabuzhan. Ninjas are just tools. Even the well-known ninjas who are famous in the five major countries, to him, are the same as those lackeys in his hands, without any difference.

So Kado didn't care whether he could complete the mission without beheading, because he had already assembled his thugs and acted in the way he liked.

As a ninja, I actually overlooked that there are still such people, this kind of people who look down on ninjas and use ninjas as tools.

I gripped the handle of the knife tightly.

White mist gradually surged from the river and spread around.

"Sasuke, Sakura, here we come." Kakashi put Sakura and me in a defensive posture.

I looked towards a certain direction in the thick fog, and two figures gradually appeared there, one tall and one short.Naturally, the tall one will not be cut again. He is carrying a big knife, and he seems to be recovering well. There is only a shallow scar on his chest where I cut him.The short one is exactly that boy, but he wears a mask belonging to the assassination force of Wuyin Village.

Two people... Can Kakashi deal with two people while protecting Sakura and Dazna?

Mistake, it's my fault.

I didn't expect Kado to act so quickly, and I don't have so much time to prepare, so those people... can they react?

——That's just right, let me see how deep their hatred for Kado is.

Just what to do now?

With Kaduo's method, not only Daqiao, but even Dazna's family would send thugs. It doesn't matter if ordinary thugs are there, but what if it is another ninja like Zabuzhan?

Naruto is in danger!

"I've been waiting for a long time... Kakashi, and that kid from the Uchiha family." Zabuzhan's voice echoed in the white mist.

I took a deep breath and slightly unsheathed the Taidao.

As if aware of my movements, Zai Bu Zhan said mockingly: "Oh? What's the matter, kid? Why are you so restless this time. Don't be too nervous... This time, I brought a child just like you .”

I looked over, and in line with the words of no more cuts, the boy also looked straight at me and took a light step forward.

"Bai, that's your formidable enemy." Zai Bu Zhan swung down the sword and stood beside him and said.

"Yes." The young man named Bai replied, standing beside Zaibuzhan in a very respectful posture, humble and admired.

"Go, Bai." As soon as Zabuzhan's voice fell, Bai disappeared in place.

Bai's speed was very fast, and the way he moved was very peculiar. He spun around, as if he was dancing, so light that he could immediately perform the next movement without needing to fall to the ground.

I swung my knife to block his attack, and suddenly I quickly moved back, getting out of his attack range.

Bai followed closely, and I backed up again, jumping directly from the center of the bridge to the shore.

This time, Bai saw my intention and couldn't help but stop and look at me.

"Oh? Brat, did you already want to run away before hitting you?" Zai Buzhan laughed arrogantly and said loudly.He and Kakashi stood opposite each other, and they hadn't made a move yet. At this moment, they all turned their heads to pay attention to the battle between Shiro and me.

"Naruto is in danger." I explained to Kakashi, who suddenly understood what I meant and immediately became serious.

"Then Sasuke, Naruto will leave it to you." Kakashi said, pulling up his forehead guard, revealing the Sharingan, and focused on dealing with Zabuchi.

"Bai, don't worry about that brat." He seemed to know that I was going to leave, he hesitated for a moment, then waved his hand and ordered, "Our task is to kill that old man."

"You really don't need to worry about me?" I looked at Zai Buchou and smiled provocatively, "I'm going to kill Kado, won't you stop me?"

"That's right, a traitor like you doesn't care about the client's safety at all, right?"

I suddenly blocked Bai's attack, different from the reserved and hesitant attack before, this time Bai's Qianben stabbed straight at me with an extremely ferocious and swift momentum, resisting my Taidao.

"Don't say that and don't kill Mister again!" Bai's voice sank.

Qianben rubbed against the sharp blade, making a stabbing sound.

"You brat..." Zai Bu Zhan was obviously irritated by me, and he stared at me fiercely, without him needing to say anything else, the meaning was already obvious.

I staggered Bai Qianben, turned around and plunged into the jungle.

Bai really followed closely behind me.

I jumped between the branches, dodging several thousand copies that struck behind me.

Qianben is an extremely thin long needle, and it has no strong lethality. Just like the Taidao that hit me before, Shiro can only defend passively.

But when Qianben is used as a hidden weapon, it is the best assassination method. The sound of Qianben passing through the air is very small, and it is very difficult to resist, but as long as it is pierced into the important acupuncture points of the human body, it can also cause great damage. .

The thousand copies that Bai kept shooting at me, although dodgeable, hindered my speed.

If the person sent to Naruto is really a powerful ninja, then Bai is obviously the biggest stumbling block.

People like Bai...

I thought about it and stopped.

Several thousand sticks were stuck at my feet, but after I stopped, Bai did not continue to attack, but stood on a branch a few steps away from me.

"You don't want to kill people, do you?" I asked.

Bai was stunned for a moment, raised Qianben, put on an offensive posture, and said coldly: "Although I don't want to hurt you, but for important people, I can also be a qualified ninja."

"Really? What if he dies?"

"What do you mean?" A powerful aura suddenly erupted from Bai's body.As if the water vapor in the air condensed, a thin layer of ice covered the branches near him.

"Are you sure that Buzhan is stronger than Kakashi? You should have heard of Kakashi's power, right?" I said lightly.

"Impossible, this time Mr. Unkilled already..."

"So what if he wins Kakashi." I interrupted Shiro, watched his every movement closely, and said softly, "You know that? You've noticed... Kado's attitude. "

Bai's breathing suddenly stagnated.

"Your employer doesn't seem to be an aboveboard person. He has assembled a large number of armed forces, you know?" I asked meaningfully.Bai's mind is very pure, so he can easily see through him, but at the same time, he can also easily see through others.

Kaduo, after hiring Zabuzhan, still expended a lot of energy to gather the gang.

It was obviously a problem that could be solved without beheading another person, why did he go to such trouble?

Unless...he didn't intend to let Zabuzhan live at all.

"Are you sure that Kado is willing to pay you a high commission?" I continued to ask, adding the last straw to Bai's faltering will, "He deceived you, and he will not kill you if he deceives you. In his opinion, ninjas are just As a tool, he has never paid attention to Zabuchou."

"Kado..." Bai murmured, his tone was so cold that he seemed to freeze the name.But this coldness is not just a feeling, the surrounding temperature has dropped significantly.

More and more ice spread on the branches, making a small sound.

"It seems that our goals are the same." I raised my eyebrows and said.

Bai seemed to wake up suddenly, he raised his head, looked at me, and said with some hesitation: "But..."

"Do you think that it is good for a person to support him unconditionally no matter what he does, even if he wants to jump off a cliff, you will be with him. Or pull him back when he jumps off a cliff, even if he will hate you. "I asked suddenly.

Bai fell silent.

"If it were me, I would pull him back. Because I want to save him and keep him alive, even if he will hate me for it." I answered this question on my own, while "嗡" the Taidao Insert it back into the sheath with a snap.

"In my opinion, there is hope only if you are alive. So what if you hate me? Being good to a person is a burden, not an enjoyment. Let him hate. As long as he is still alive, I am willing to die."

The wind howled through the trees, and the ice on the branches dissipated, melted into water, and fell drop by drop to the ground.

After a while, Bai gently said, "How can I trust you? A young man can kill Kado?"

success.

Bai wavered.In other words, Bai made up his mind.

"Don't worry, you won't find out if you don't cut it." I raised the corner of my mouth, thinking of those people, I couldn't help but look forward to it, "If we don't need to do it, Kado will die."

I don't know what Bai was thinking. He strangely didn't question my words, but just smiled.

His voice was originally as soft as a girl's, but his smile became even more crisp.

"Okay, I'll wait and see."

The water on the ground reflected the sunlight, Shiro put Chimoto back into his sleeves and said with a smile.
