Chapter 290: Despair! The Arrival of the Whitebeard Pirate Crew!

"Strange... Wasn't it said that the Whitebeard Pirate Crew was in Kumogakure Village? Why can't I see any pirates? I also didn't see that exaggerated big ship of the Whitebeard Pirate Crew..."

When a White Zetsu clone appeared in Kumogakure Village, he found that besides a group of Kumogakure ninjas and civilians, there were no other special strange characters in Kumogakure Village.

The task Obito gave him was to send a "challenge letter" to the Whitebeard Pirate Crew.

The so-called challenge letter is actually to let the Whitebeard Pirate Crew exchange Hatake Kakashi's life for the lives of those four kids.

This is the only choice Obito gave to the Whitebeard Pirate Crew.

If the Whitebeard Pirate Crew ignores him, then he will first kill a kid and bring the kid's head to them to see.

At that time, if the Whitebeard Pirate Crew continues to ignore, he, Uchiha Obito, will kill another kid!

With Obito's understanding of the Whitebeard Pirate Crew and Kakashi, he is very clear that those pirates will not sit idly by and watch those four kids slowly die.

"Could it be that the information Obito gave me was wrong? The Whitebeard Pirate Crew is not in Kumogakure Village at all, but in other places? Then didn't I make a trip for nothing?"

"If it's in other places, where is it? Can the information Obito gave be a little more reliable? Really!"

The expression on the White Zetsu clone was a bit strange, he shook his head helplessly.

He had already walked around Kumogakure Village several times and found nothing, which means it's definitely not his problem.

"Forget it, I'll go back and tell him!"

After muttering a sentence, the body of the White Zetsu clone slowly drilled into the ground.

And quickly disappeared without a trace.

...

Half a month later.

Land of Rain.

"Did you remember the battle plan I told you?" Shikamaru lowered his voice and said to the three people in front of him, "I'll reiterate it again, lest you forget the details of the plan. We first lure that faceless guy in, and then I use the 'Shadow Imitation Technique' to control him."

"My Shadow Imitation Technique can't control him for too long, it might be five seconds, or even one second. This means that when I make a gesture, or even before I use the Shadow Imitation Technique, you guys have to take action."

"Remember, Lee goes first! Lee, you try your best to attack every vital part of his body, especially the throat and crotch, to ensure that at least two vital parts are attacked in an instant."

"Remember, don't be soft, don't have a compassionate heart, we are all ninja school students, we will all become ninjas in the future, don't be afraid of accidentally killing the other party."

Lee's pair of thick eyebrows on his eyes trembled, he nodded heavily, and his nose snorted heavily.

"I understand!" Lee immediately said.

"Shush! Keep it down!" Shikamaru quickly reminded Lee, then turned to Sakura and said, "Sakura, the moment Lee makes his move, don't join us. You run, as fast as you can."

"The sound of heavy rain outside has been constant, indicating that this is a place where it rains all year round. As long as you run three hundred meters away, the human eye won't be able to see you."

"This also means that beyond three hundred meters is a safe zone, but don't stop, keep running until you're exhausted."

Haruno Sakura's face showed a hint of nervousness.

She also nodded, but hesitated and said, "But, but what if I can't run that fast..."

"Then we'll have to die here." Shikamaru said expressionlessly, "It's okay for us three boys, but for a cute girl like you, if you encounter a pervert..."

Upon hearing this, Sakura's face turned pale instantly.

Thinking of the scene of encountering a pervert, her body was trembling, she hurriedly said, "I will definitely try my best!"

She didn't want to fall into the hands of a pervert!

"Finally, it's Chouji." Shikamaru paused, then continued in a deep voice, "Among the four of us, the one with the strongest attack power is Chouji, because his family's secret technique is Multi-Size Jutsu."

"He can enlarge parts of his body, and his strength will increase accordingly, able to crush the enemy with one blow. When Lee and I hold off the enemy, Chouji must give the enemy a heavy blow."

"Not to kill the enemy, but at least to immobilize the enemy for a short time, at least to hold him off for a few seconds."

Chouji swallowed hard.

"I... I'll try..." Chouji said weakly.

"No, you can't say you'll try." Shikamaru shook his head, "You must do it, and I firmly believe you can do it, because you definitely have the talent for it!"

Chouji's eyes lit up, "Do I really have such talent? Shikamaru, you're not lying to me, are you?"

Shikamaru rolled his eyes, "At a time of life and death, how could I possibly lie to you?"

The four of them had not been idle these days, nor had they been discouraged.

They had been secretly making plans.

Even if they had guessed that this place might not be Konohagakure Village, or even Land of Fire, they still wanted to escape, they couldn't just sit and wait for death, because the consequence of sitting and waiting for death is death.

Since staying here is death, and running out is also death, it's better to give it a shot, even if only one person can escape.

Shikamaru's plan is simple.

It's for him, Chouji, and Lee to hold off the faceless man, and then Sakura runs out to ask for help.

In other words, they are about to risk their lives.

Shikamaru's face was very heavy, and there was a hint of helpless bitterness, there was no way, they were forced to do this.

Although he usually finds this troublesome and that troublesome, but once he encounters danger, sitting and waiting for death is not his style.

Shikamaru listened carefully to the noise outside... he found that when the sound of rain started to get louder, it meant that the opportunity was coming.

"Start!"

With Shikamaru's low shout.

Sakura immediately picked up a stone from the ground and knocked hard on the iron cell door, making a "bang bang" sound, "Is anyone there! Is anyone there! My stomach hurts so much! Someone come! Come..."

Just as Sakura was shouting at the top of her lungs, a sudden figure made Sakura's shout pause.

Uchiha Obito, dressed in a black robe with red clouds, walked over slowly.

The one eye that Obito revealed fell on Sakura.

Even without activating the Sharingan, the immense pressure still made Sakura break out in a cold sweat. Obito's appearance also made Sakura lose her composure.

Because...

The target and plan of the four of them was to deal with "Tobi", after all, they had only seen Tobi these days.

They knew Tobi had a companion, but they thought this companion was not here, but who would have thought, the other party appeared.

Shikamaru was also stunned for a moment.

But the plan had already been made, he knew better than anyone the saying of "strike while the iron is hot", definitely not to give up halfway.

Shikamaru immediately backed up Sakura, angrily questioning Obito, who was wearing a mask, "Hey! Was there poison in the food you gave us yesterday? What are you trying to do? She's been in pain all night!"

Sakura's face was as pale as paper, and with the cold sweat scared out of her, it really looked like something was wrong.

Obito frowned.

He glanced at Shikamaru, Chouji, Lee, and then turned his gaze on Sakura. Seeing this wide-foreheaded little girl who was sweating profusely, Obito didn't know why he thought of Nohara Rin again.

"Hmph!" He snorted coldly in a hoarse voice, "It's just a stomachache, you little brats are making such a fuss, as if you're about to die."

Obito didn't want to deal with these little brats, he turned around and wanted to leave.

He was in a bad mood recently.

Because the White Zetsu clone he sent out to challenge the Whitebeard Pirate Crew came back a while ago and told him that the Whitebeard Pirate Crew was not in Kumogakure Village at all.

That is to say, the Whitebeard Pirate Crew had already left Kumogakure Village, and he didn't know where they were going.

In addition, Kumogakure Village has a dense network of rivers, and Moby Dick could indeed trace them if it kept sailing on land.

But once Moby Dick sails down a river for a short time, it's hard to find its trace.

Obito lost the whereabouts of the Whitebeard Pirate Crew!

This made him feel that he had caught a bunch of little devils for nothing.

He originally wanted to threaten the Whitebeard Pirate Crew with these little kids...

Or rather, to threaten Kakashi!

But in the end, he couldn't find anyone.

"Hold on! Even if she just has a stomachache, she should be allowed to go out and deal with it, right?" Shikamaru hurriedly shouted loudly, "What if... she does it here?"

Shikamaru continued, "That faceless guy, when we say we need to go to the bathroom, he always takes us out!"

At this point, Shikamaru's face turned red.

Because that strange pervert, for some reason, always likes to stare at him when he's relieving himself.

But Shikamaru couldn't do anything about it.

He couldn't always hold it in, could he?

Obito paused, turned around and said coldly, "Only this little brat is allowed to come out, you three back up and stick to the wall."

He took out a key from his bosom.

And unlocked the big lock on the prison door.

Obito grabbed Haruno Sakura by the back of her collar, lifted her up, and directly carried Sakura out.

Seeing Sakura trembling all over, as if she was enduring something, Obito straightened his hand a bit, letting Sakura stay a bit further from him.

He frowned and warned her, "Hold it in for a minute, if you dare to do it in front of me, I'll kill you!"

But just as Obito's words fell, Shikamaru suddenly put his hands together, gritted his teeth and shouted, "Shadow Imitation Technique!!!"

Obito: "!!!"

To be honest, Obito really didn't expect that these little kids would dare to attack him.

The shadow on the ground that had been ready to go, spread to Obito's feet like a spear thrust in an instant.

In an instant, Obito found himself unable to move.

"Tsk..." But obviously, there was no panic on Obito's face, he said coldly, "Little kids, you are looking for death!"

He just moved his foot and broke free from Shikamaru's Shadow Imitation Technique. 

The secret technique of the family was so easily broken free.

This made Shikamaru's eyes widen.

He found that the gap between the other party and these children was not ordinary.

Damn, he underestimated the enemy!

He thought that he could at least control the other party for a second, but now he found that he couldn't even control for a second.

This unexpected scene also left Lee and Chouji stunned, unsure whether to take action.

Shikamaru looked helpless.

The plan had failed.

There was no chance left.

"Drip...drip..." A sound of water suddenly rang out, and the one eye that Obito had exposed trembled slightly, because he found that his instep was being doused with a warm stream.

His sclera was filled with two streaks of blood, and he looked at Haruno Sakura, whom he was holding, with gritted teeth and squeezed out a sentence, "You... peed on... my foot?"

The enemy's kunai and shuriken couldn't touch him, Uchiha Obito, at all.

But a little brat who couldn't hold it in peed on his instep.

It almost broke Obito's guard.

He swung hard and threw Sakura onto the wall on the spot.

With a muffled bang, Sakura almost passed out.

"Konohagakure Rising Egg Wind!!!"

"Aaaaaaa!!!"

Lee moved.

Although, the previous moment of confusion made him miss the best opportunity, but he still made a move now, because, he saw his "comrade" being hurt.

Lee felt like his foot seemed to touch the other's clothes.

His childish face was full of excitement.

"Good opportunity! Chouji! Follow the plan!" Seeing this, Shikamaru decided to make the best of a bad situation and hurriedly shouted to Chouji.

"Ninjutsu·Multi-Size Jutsu!!!"

"Wait, that's not right!" But at this moment, Lee found that the touch on his instep was gone, and he kicked empty space.

He watched as his groin kick passed through Obito's body.

Lee was dumbfounded.

But obviously...

His warning was too late.

Because Chouji, whose hands had suddenly grown larger, had already made a sumo wrestler's move and pushed towards Obito.

Chouji also pushed empty air.

His palms hit the wall on one side of Obito hard, and the huge palm made a hole in the wall, causing the entire cell to shake violently, and dust and rubble kept falling down.

It's easy to see that the secret technique of the Akimichi clan is indeed powerful, no wonder Shikamaru wanted Chouji to give the enemy a fatal blow.

Unfortunately, it didn't work.

"Hit, can't hit?"

Chouji was dumbfounded.

"Little brats, you've really pissed me off." Obito's one eye was clouded over, and the warm, moist feeling on his instep made Obito extremely uncomfortable.

He coldly glanced at Shikamaru, Chouji, and Lee, and his eye turned into a Three Tomoe Sharingan.

"Immerse yourselves in the endless pain of the Sharingan Genjutsu!"

He cast the Sharingan Genjutsu on the three little brats.

He didn't care at all whether these little brats of this age could bear it.

"Whitebeard played me, Kakashi played me, now you little brats want to play me too... Humph! What do you think I am? A clown in a circus?"

Obito forcibly suppressed his killing intent.

Because... now is not the time to kill these four little brats.

They still have a big use.

"Little brat, if you don't want to die, lick your pee clean for me."

Obito turned his head to look at Sakura.

However...

He was stunned.

Where's the person?

In Obito's line of sight, he could only see a small pool of blood on the ground. It should be the blood that Sakura spat out from her mouth when he just threw Sakura away.

Obito's expression instantly became extremely ugly, until this moment, he suddenly realized that the pee that almost broke his guard just now might also be in the plan of these little brats.

He was actually played by a group of little brats!

"Damn little brats!"

Obito immediately locked the cell door again.

Then, without hesitation, he used the "Kamui" to phase through the wall and walked out.

Looking around... you could see that there was a large forest in front of him, and the prison was built in the middle of a forest. Above was a gloomy sky, with heavy rain falling down, splashing up clumps of mud. The ground was very muddy, and there were puddles everywhere.

Obito only needed to look down to see a shallow set of footprints leading off into the distance.

"Damn it, Tobi just happened to be not here..."

...

"Huff... huff... it hurts..." Haruno Sakura, who was only seven years old, ran desperately in the rain. After running only a few hundred meters, she was already panting. Because she was thrown against the wall by Obito, her delicate body must have been injured.

She held her left rib, and Sakura could clearly feel that one of her ribs seemed to be broken.

Because when her palm touched there.

There was an empty spot...

The intense pain made her breathing more and more difficult, and the rain falling from the sky was like someone pouring water from the sky, the cold rain made Sakura's body lose heat quickly.

Fatigue, cold, pain, fear, anxiety...

All kinds of negative conditions were all added to her small body, slowing down Sakura's running speed.

"Cough cough cough..."

As Sakura was running for her life and covering her mouth to cough, she looked down and saw that her palm was stained with blood.

Sakura: "!!!"

Sakura, who had just entered the ninja school for less than a year, although she didn't have much medical knowledge, she could probably understand that there must be something wrong with her internal organs.

Her consciousness also began to become blurred.

She tripped over a vine in the forest under her feet, rolled several times on the muddy ground, and barely got up.

She wiped the mud and water off her face.

When she looked up, Sakura was shocked to find that she was now in so much pain that she was hallucinating.

The forest in front was sparse, and through the sparse forest, she could barely see that there was a huge object approaching in the distance.

Where the huge object passed, trees fell one after another.

But the rain was too heavy, and Sakura couldn't see what it was at all.

She always felt that it looked like a ship.

But how could it be!

This place should be deep in the forest, all around, except for trees, there were trees.

Where did the ship come from?

It's over!

I'm really hallucinating!

"I'm sorry Shikamaru, I'm sorry Chouji, I'm sorry Lee..." Sakura sat down on her butt, she curled up into a ball, crying, "I... I can't run anymore... I'm already hallucinating, I might be dying..."

"Little kid, why aren't you running?" Obito's gloomy voice came from behind, accompanied by the sound of rain.

His voice made Sakura even more desperate.

Just as Obito was about to go forward and drag Sakura back.

His footsteps stopped.

One of Obito's eyes widened, and the expression under his mask was full of incredulity.

His gaze was looking into the distance.

Because, in the far distance, there was a large ship sailing on land!
