Chapter 66, Exterminate the Rebel Ninja Squad!

"Don't worry, I cherish my life."

Raijin joked with Sarutobi Hiruzen with a light laugh.

"That's good, when encountering danger, be sure to ensure your own safety."

Sarutobi Hiruzen chuckled, patted Raijin's shoulder. It's good to have an excellent team member, some things can be entrusted.

"Don't worry."

Raijin nodded, waved at Tsunade, and disappeared into the ground.

The Earth Release: Hiding Like a Mole Technique, although it's a low-level technique, Raijin quite likes to use it.

It's useful.

...

"It's been so long, Masato-sama hasn't come back yet, did something unexpected happen?"

"I'm not sure, Masato's target is the caravan coming from the direction of the Land of Wind. As long as that caravan still exists, this mission is considered complete."

"If Masato-sama really had an accident, wouldn't we be in danger? I really don't understand why the higher-ups let us do this mission. Three Jonin haven't come back, can one Jonin lead two Chunin back?"

"Hey! Are you doubting my ability? We just need to take a look, understand? Just a look!"

"Sigh..."

"Alright, let's find a place to rest now."

...

Is this... a wandering ninja?

About seven or eight hundred meters away from these ninjas, Raijin frowned slightly.

Generally, the ninjas in the village rarely talk so much.

But, getting up so early, what are they resting for?

Or is it that they chose to travel at night to reduce the risk of exposure?

According to the sound transmitted by the Heart Network, Raijin silently followed.

One Jonin, two Chunin, and they are wandering ninjas. Raijin felt that he could give it a try.

...

"Alright, here it is."

A relatively flat open space, the Jonin said to the two Chunin behind him.

"Hmm."

One of the Chunin nodded, sat directly on the ground, leaned against the big tree behind him, and closed his eyes to rest.

After rushing for a night, they were very tired.

Especially since they didn't know what kind of crisis they might encounter on the road ahead, now that they could rest, they naturally had to seize the time to rest.

"Matsushita Akira, you're on guard."

"Kitamori-sama, I've been on guard for three days straight."

Matsushita Akira said incredulously to Kitamori.

"What? Do you have any objections to my arrangement?"

Upon hearing this, a cold light flashed in Kitamori's eyes.

"No."

Matsushita Akira pursed his lips, turned his head, and forced himself to stay alert.

His mouth opened and closed, cursing silently.

Stupid rebel ninja.

Yes, Matsushita Akira was a rebel ninja, he was former Chunin from Kumogakure.

Later, he defected from the village with a large group.

Over the years, as the organization grew larger and larger, he was incorporated into this squad.

Deep down, Matsushita Akira looked down on these two colleagues who came from a wild background.

Even if one of them, Kitamori, was a Jonin.

But, Matsushita Akira felt that he had never shown it, but Kitamori had always been subtly targeting him.

"In two hours, ask Sawada replace you."

Kitamori glanced at Matsushita Akira. During the mission, he targeted Matsushita Akira, he actually wants to grind away the arrogance that sprang up from Matsushita Akira.

However, he couldn't go too far, after all, they were still on a mission, and maintaining their condition was necessary.

...

Somewhere in the bushes, Raijin watched this scene from afar and quietly retreated.

Raijin had to wait, wait for Kitamori, the Jonin, to fall asleep, and wait for Sawada, the Chunin, to fall asleep.

Time passed by minute by minute, and in the blink of an eye, an hour had passed.

...

"Stop!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned and raised his right hand.

"What's wrong?"

Takenaka Heizo came to Sarutobi Hiruzen's side and asked Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Raijin hasn't come back for an hour."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he said to Takenaka Heizo beside him. They had previously agreed that he would report back every hour.

"Could something have happened?"

Tsunade came to Sarutobi Hiruzen's side and asked.

"I'm not sure, wait here for five minutes. If Raijin doesn't come back after five minutes, I'll go find him."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said to Tsunade.

"Sensei, don't worry."

Just then, Raijin slowly emerged from the ground and said to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"What's going on?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyebrows relaxed, and he said to Raijin in front of him.

"Three ninjas are coming from the northeast, their team member should be one Jonin and two Chunin, and they are resting over there now."

"And where is your main body?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded and asked Raijin.

"My main body wants to try if it can take down that squad, so I came to report to you, and by the way, I would like you to go over and take a look. My main body is also afraid of any accidents."

The shadow clone spoke unhurriedly to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Upon hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately felt a headache and closed his eyes.

Looking at the motionless Raijin's shadow clone in front of him, Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice became somewhat irritable.

"What are you waiting for then? Lead the way!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen only felt that his head was buzzing right now.

Is Raijin arrogant?

But He still knows to come back and report, letting him go over and keep an eye on things.

Is Raijin cautious?

He dares to make a move even when he's outnumbered!

How does he manage to be both cautious and arrogant?

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't understand, but he was greatly shocked.

"Tsunade, you and Orochimaru stay here, I'll leave a shadow clone here, we must ensure the safety of the merchant group."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said to Tsunade, his figure flashed, and he followed Raijin's shadow clone, which had already run far away.

...

At this time...

Matsushita Akira was there, bored, counting the seconds, waiting for his shift with Sawada.

And just then, Raijin's face somehow smoothly emerged from under Matsushita Akira's feet.

Matsushita Akira was startled, and the moment he came back to his senses, he was looking straight into Raijin's crimson eyes.

Kanashibari no Jutsu.

And at this moment, several blades of lightning appeared under Sawada and Kitamori.

Sawada didn't even wake up, all the water in his body was evaporated in an instant by the huge current.

How many volts is unclear, anyway, it was just a sizzle, and the person was gone.

Raijin didn't have a voltmeter in his hand, so it was not easy to measure.

Kitamori was better, before he died, he opened his eyes and took one last look at this beautiful world.

Two shadow clones emerged from the ground, holding Kunai, and each made a cut at the throat and heart.

Only after confirming that both of them had completely lost their vital signs did the shadow clones dissipate in a puff of smoke.

And it was at this time that Raijin's figure appeared in the field.

Ah... ninjas should be like this, attacking from behind, taking advantage of the situation, all actions are based on using the least effort to achieve the greatest cost.

Like Senju Hashirama, the final means to defeat Madara was also the simplest backstabbing.

像是那种乌云密布,电闪雷鸣之间一道雷霆从天而降,宛若天神下凡所过之处片甲不留.

可以,但是没有必要.

就算是柱间用上真数千手,更多的也是因为,不用这个,真的破不了宇智波斑的防.
