"Boom."
Accompanied by a huge explosion, black smoke followed, and suddenly three figures broke through the smoke and rushed out.
They landed on the treetops, and the chakra was transmitted to their feet.
With a little effort, they jumped to another treetop, constantly cycling through the woods.
The wind beside his ears was whistling.
Haru in the air looked forward with a serious face, not knowing whether Uchiha Chi behind him could catch up.
Their mission this time was originally to cut off the supply of the ninjas of Land of Grass .
With the national strength of the Land of Grass, this mission should not be too difficult.
As a result, I don't know how they ran into an elite team.
Although they were wearing masks, judging from their costumes, they should be ninjas from the Hidden Rock Village.
According to Haru's understanding, the Hidden Rock Village should not have officially declared war on Konoha.
Could it be that now that Konoha is outnumbered, they took the opportunity to launch a sneak attack?
Haru didn't know this, but he only knew that these guys rushed up when they saw Haru's team.
If it weren't for Uchiha Chi's prompt decision to stay behind to cover their retreat, they would have been dead.
Haru cursed inwardly, thinking that his group was really unlucky.
They were so unlucky that they ran into the muzzle of a gun.
Haru could stay there and try to fight if there were only 5-10 ninjas, but opponents are 25 ninjas and at least half of them are Jonin.
Haru's teammates were silent all the way.
After rushing for a while, they suddenly felt that there were pursuers behind them.
Haru turned around and threw a shuriken.
With a clang, the sound of metal colliding rang in the air.
Seeing that the person coming was Uchiha Chi, Haru and others showed joy on their faces, and they felt a little relieved.
It seemed that they had successfully shaken off the enemy.
But Uchiha Chi, who caught up soon and said : "Don't be happy too early. What we met just now was just a small part of the ninjas from the Hidden Rock Village. Now there are more ninjas rushing towards us. We are gradually being surrounded."
Haru's face was gloomy.
At this point, he could no longer hide his strength: "Let's fight them."
Uchiha Chi saw Haru's intention and stopped him, saying: "Don't waste your time. Even if we risk our lives, we can't deal with so many elite ninjas at once."
Uchiha Chi was right. Even if he used all his strength, he couldn't defeat such a large number of ninjas.
Haru clenched his fists, and his palms were faintly hurt by the deep nails.
The disadvantage of age was constantly magnified on the battlefield.
He sincerely felt that it would be better if he was a little older.
A team member was uneasy: "What should we do then?"
Uchiha Chi closed his eyes for a while and said in a deep voice: "Use me as bait, and then the three of you run away in different directions, maybe there is a glimmer of hope."
"No, Teacher Chi, you are the elite of Uchiha, and you should take someone like me who doesn't even have a Sharingan." Sayuri shouted.
Uchiha Chi said righteously: "My grandfather and father both died on the battlefield as ninjas. Self-sacrifice is the duty of a ninja."
"But..."
"You are still young and have a broader future. Sooner or later, you will have the opportunity to show your talents. Before that, you must cherish your lives."
Uchiha Chi looked at Haru deliberately, "You, the heirs of the Will of Fire, must protect the village well in the future."
Seeing his meaningful look, Haru suddenly understood something.
Before Yasuhi died, he must have told the family's trusted people about his affairs, and Uchiha Chi was undoubtedly the right person.
Uchiha Chi knew his true strength. He deliberately let the three people escape separately.
On the surface, it was to increase the probability of escape. In fact, he didn't want the other two to drag him down, and even to hide his secrets to some extent.
"Teacher Chi, you..."
Uchiha Chi rarely smiled: "Don't feel sorry for me. If I die, I will turn into stars and watch you from the sky."
Haru was dazed for second but soon he restrained his emotions.
The three knew that this was not the time to be reserved, otherwise it would be a waste of Uchiha Chi's painstaking efforts.
The three gritted their teeth and ran in three different directions.
Uchiha Chi looked at the direction where Haru ran away, and the corners of his mouth rose.
He could actually catch Haru directly, but that would not be elegant enough.
On the other side, not long after Haru ran away, he heard a huge explosion behind him.
It seemed that Uchiha Chi was fighting fiercely over there to attract more enemy attention.
Haru was a little sad. Now Uchiha Chi took the initiative to stay and attract the enemy. It is very likely that he will not survive.
Haru himself was still too weak now.
1V1 is okay even 2v1 is acceptable, but if you encounter a situation of one against many, unless you have overwhelming strength, it is easy to fall into a passive situation.
He has destructive ninjutsu to fight a large no of people but due to his age his chakra is very insufficient to perform those ninjutsu.
He sighed and swore.
'I will avenge you.'
The eyes stained with murderous intent and revenge flashed scarlet
Seeds of hatred that Haru once despised were sown in his own heart.
Not long after he held this thought, there was a sound of something cutting through the air behind him.
"Da Da Da..."
Shuriken and kunai were nailed to the treetops where Haru had just stepped.
Haru turned around in mid-air and looked at the pursuers.
A bitter smile appeared on the corners of his mouth.
He didn't expect that even though Chi fought desperately, but in the end he couldn't stop the enemy.
Haru landed on the ground and looked at the dozens of masked Iwagakure ninjas who surrounded him. His face was very ugly
Ninjas who can become Anbu are generally chunin or above.
Facing so many powerful ninjas at once, Haru, with cold sweat on his face, took a deep breath.
Perhaps because of the fear in his heart, he found that the air he inhaled was much heavier than ever before.
Damn it, that's why I don't want to fight any bullshit war before I grow up. There are too many uncertainties.
There are many things I want to complain about in my heart, but at this moment, even the time to complain seems particularly extravagant.
Now there is no Uchiha Chi to back him up.
If Haru is not careful, he will be seriously injured or die.
Haru dare not be arrogant and directly activates Sharingan.
The Iwagakure Anbu ninjas were slightly surprised when they saw Haru's eyes: "interesting , he has a Sharingan, don't be careless."
"Even if he is Uchiha, he is just a little kid." Another Iwagakure Anbu ninja said disdainfully, waved his hand and threw a shuriken, intending to verify his guess with actual action.
The sound of rapid rotation made a harsh sound in the air.
Haru looked closely, and he stepped back and turned around, dodging the attack while raising a sword, and the tip of the sword passed through the round hole of the shuriken and nailed it into the ground.
At this moment, the rotating shuriken and the tip of the sword rubbed against each other and made a harsh sound.
At the same time, Hary loosened the hilt of the sword, quickly formed a seal, and took a deep breath of turbid air.
The huge chakra accumulated in his mouth spit out a fireball, and the moment the fireball landed, it suddenly exploded and spread in a semicircle.
Fire Release: Searing Migraine.
