Chapter 88 – Rescuing the Teacher 营救老师

Meanwhile, a tense atmosphere hung in the air on another battlefield. The puppets revived through Edo Tensei and the White Zetsu army were running amok. The Ninja Allied Forces were fighting back stubbornly, but the continuous reinforcement of the enemy made the situation more and more critical. In a cave at this moment, Kabuto wore a sinister smile on his lips, and behind him lay the unconscious Mitarashi Anko.

Kabuto looked back at Anko. His smile got wider. "What a poor woman! In the Edo Tensei plan, only having strong fighting skills isn't enough. I won't waste anything useful."

Suddenly, Kabuto's smile froze, as if he had sensed something. A golden light flashed by, accompanied by a barely audible "buzz" in the air, and Lin Yuan appeared in front of him.

"You..." Kabuto squinted his eyes and noticed the light shining on Anko's palm. "You can actually use the Flying Thunder God? I really didn't expect that."

Lin Yuan glanced at him and furrowed his brows slightly.

Kabuto chuckled and shook his head. "You can't stop me. If it was Minato's Flying Thunder God, I'd be careful. But you? You're just an immature kid."

Lin Yuan snorted coldly. The kunai in his hand instantly turned into a stream of light, and he himself disappeared without a trace. Kabuto's pupils shrank slightly, and his body quickly leaped backward. At the same time, his hands formed hand seals rapidly, and a huge snake shadow soared into the sky, heading straight for Lin Yuan, who suddenly appeared in the air.

Lin Yuan calmly raised his hand, and a pale blue chakra light emerged from his palm. He punched out, and the force of the punch was like a thunderclap. The chakra - condensed fist wind directly tore through the snake shadow and rushed towards Kabuto's face.

Kabuto had no time to dodge and could only use snake skin for defense. The force of the punch exploded in front of him, knocking him back several steps. The smile vanished from his face, replaced by a dark scowl. "You interrupted my technique with a pure chakra punch?!"

After landing, Lin Yuan panted slightly and stared coldly at Kabuto.

Kabuto was about to speak when he saw Lin Yuan quickly lift the unconscious Anko. Then, with a flash of yellow light, they vanished.

...

In the medical unit of the Ninja Allied Forces, Sakura and Shizune were counting the conditions of the wounded soldiers sent from the battlefield. Shizune frowned, and her voice carried a hint of anxiety. "There are too many wounded... And the camouflage of the White Zetsu is really troublesome. There's a new attack almost every once in a while."

Sakura pursed her lips and didn't stop her hands. "I'll speed up! We must save everyone."

Just then, a Flying Thunder God technique pattern in the medical tent suddenly lit up. The two turned and saw Lin Yuan holding Anko, who was unconscious. Sweat dotted his forehead and a faint bloodstain marked his left arm.

"Lin Yuan?" Sakura was taken aback for a moment and quickly ran over to help. "Is Teacher Anko injured?"

Lin Yuan handed Anko to her and said in a steady voice, "I don't know. She's unconscious. I leave her to you."

Sakura nodded, placed Anko on the treatment table, and together with Shizune, examined and treated her. Lin Yuan sat in the tent corner. He untied the scroll on his back, took out a kunai with the Flying Thunder God pattern, stuck it in the ground, and formed hand seals to summon several shadow clones.

"You go and blend with natural energy. There are still White Zetsu's camouflage agents near the medical unit. Take care of them. Oh, and leave a few to guard this place." Lin Yuan gave simple instructions, and the other shadow clones quickly disappeared.

Leaning against the wooden stake of the tent, his eyes flickered slightly as he recalled the meeting before the Great Ninja War. At that time, as a special jōnin, he stood in front of Tsunade and reported that he had initially mastered the Flying Thunder God technique. Kakashi stood beside and nodded. He suggested Lin Yuan not join any of the five Ninja Allied Forces divisions, but work alone as a mobile support.

"Surprisingly, I'm really fighting alone." Lin Yuan chuckled softly and slowly fell asleep.

==================

与此同时,另一处战场的空气中弥漫着紧张的气息.秽土转生的傀儡与白绝大军正在肆虐,忍者联军节节抗击,但敌人源源不断的增援让局势愈发危急.此时的一处山洞中,兜的嘴角挂着一抹阴冷的笑意,而身后躺着昏迷不醒的御手洗红豆.

兜回头瞥了一眼红豆,嘴角的笑意更深了:"真是个可怜的女人... 不过在秽土转生的棋局里,光有战斗力还不够.该利用的资源,我可不会浪费."

忽然,兜的笑容一滞,仿佛察觉到了什么.只见一道金色光芒一闪而过,伴随着空气中微不可闻的 "嗡" 声,林远出现在他的面前.

"你..." 兜眯起眼睛,注意到红豆手掌上亮起的光芒,"居然会飞雷神?真没想到."

林远看了他一眼,眉头微皱.

兜轻笑一声,缓缓摇头:"你以为自己能阻止我吗?如果是水门那样的飞雷神,我或许会忌惮三分,但你...不过是个还没长大的小鬼罢了."

林远冷哼一声,手中的苦无瞬间化作一道流光,他本人也随即消失无踪.兜的瞳孔微缩,身体快速向后跃去,同时双手飞快结印,一道巨大的蛇影冲天而起,直奔空中突然现身的林远.

林远冷静地抬手,掌心泛起淡蓝色的查克拉光芒.他挥拳轰出,拳劲如同惊雷炸裂,那查克拉凝聚的拳风直接撕裂蛇影,直逼兜的面门.

兜来不及闪避,只能用蛇皮防御,拳劲在他身前炸开,将他震退了数步.他脸上的笑意终于彻底消失,取而代之的是阴沉的怒意:"你竟然能用这种纯粹的查克拉拳头打断我的术..."

林远落地后微微喘息,冷冷地盯着兜.

兜还想说什么,但忽然发现林远迅速扶起昏迷中的红豆,黄光一闪,两人消失在眼前.

...

忍者联军的医疗部队中,小樱正与静音对着战场上传来的伤员情况进行统计.静音眉头紧锁,声音中带着些许焦急:"伤员实在太多了...而且白绝的伪装太棘手,几乎每隔一段时间就会有新的袭击."

小樱抿了抿唇,手中动作不停:"我会加快进度的!一定要把大家救回来."

就在这时,医疗帐篷中的一个飞雷神术式忽然亮起.两人转头看去,只见林远扶着昏迷的红豆出现,他的额头渗着细密的汗珠,左臂上还有一道浅浅的血痕.

"林远?" 小樱愣了一下,连忙跑过去帮忙,"红豆老师受伤了吗?"

林远将红豆交给她,语气沉稳:"不知道,她昏迷了,拜托你们了."

小樱点了点头,将红豆放在治疗台上,与静音一起为她检查治疗.而林远则坐在帐篷的角落,伸手解开背后的卷轴,从中取出一枚飞雷神术式的苦无,随手将其插入地面,然后双手结印,召唤出数个影分身.

"你们去融合自然能量,医疗部队附近还有白绝的伪装者,解决掉他们.对了,留下几个,守护这里." 林远简单地下达指令,其余的影分身们迅速消失.

他靠在帐篷的木桩上,目光微微闪动,脑海中回忆起忍界大战前的那场会议.那时,身为特别上忍的他站在纲手面前,报告自己初步掌握了飞雷神术式.卡卡西站在一旁,微微点头,建议不要将林远分配到忍者联军的五大分队中,而是作为机动支援部队,单独行动.

"没想到,真成了单打独斗." 林远轻笑一声,渐渐地睡着了.
