Chapter 143 Grateful Hinata Hizashi
The puppets were stacked on top of each other, and strange weapons gleamed with a cold light.
Hyuga Hizashi cried out in alarm from afar, while Chiyo, in pursuit, let out a sneer, as if she could already see the young ninja's fate.
However, facing the interception ahead, Shenyue Xingyun remained calm and fearless.
Although the Chikamatsu Ten were strong, there is a limit to how strong they are.
Rushing in from all directions to block your retreat is not something that can be done in the blink of an eye.
He could see clearly that there were still gaps between the ten puppets.
The puppet whose joints he had previously broken was also a weakness!
While speeding along, Shen Yue Xingyun quickly observed the situation of the puppet and then his mind stirred.
On the panel, the words "Instantaneous Movement (Lv3)" suddenly lit up.
"Thump!" A muffled sound came from underfoot.
With a violent surge of chakra, Shingetsu Nebula's figure vanished from the spot in an instant.
Now his physical abilities have greatly improved, and his body can withstand greater strength. When he uses the Body Flicker Technique, his figure is like lightning. Under Chiyo's suddenly magnified gaze, he plunges headfirst into the encirclement of the Chikamatsu Ten.
"This kid is overestimating himself!" Chiyo thought to herself upon seeing this.
Although the sudden burst of speed from Shingetsu Nebula startled her, her White Secret Technique was unparalleled in the ninja world, and she couldn't understand why the other party dared to plunge a sword into the puppet alone.
Aren't you afraid of my puppet's swords?
That's what she was thinking.
Then, she saw a scene that made her eyes widen in disbelief.
Under the firelight-shrouded night, ten white-clad puppets, each wielding a heavy blade, exuded a chilling killing intent.
The young man, who suddenly burst into speed, changed his posture abruptly after quickly approaching the puppet.
The sword flashed.
It was as if chakra was roaring, and the sound of the puppet shattering could be clearly heard as the sword light flashed.
In the next instant, the sword light transformed into a white rainbow cascading from the heavens.
A magnificent light and shadow composed entirely of sword light appeared before everyone's eyes.
The young figure danced with the sword, his entire body seemingly defying gravity, soaring through the air and forming a long rainbow of sword energy with the tilting sword light, surging forward.
"Boom!"
Among the white puppets, one that was already on the verge of collapse couldn't even hold on for a moment before being shattered into countless fragments by the sword energy.
The sword light burst out of the fence.
Go further! Go even further!
He leaped more than ten meters, his sword energy transforming back into the figure of a young man. In a few leaps, he arrived beside the stunned Hyuga Hizashi, pulled him up, and quickly moved away.
A second later, Sunagakure, who was frozen in place, heard Chiyo's furious roar.
"Chase!!!!"
But how could they possibly catch up?
Two Jonin who were focused on escaping were difficult to stop, even though they were both Jonin. As for Chiyo—she was already old.
Controlling puppets to fight enemies is fine, but if you actually try to chase them, you're just asking for trouble.
An hour later, a ninja returned to report.
"Lady Chiyo, we couldn't catch up."
Even though she had anticipated this, Chiyo was still extremely unwilling.
She cursed, "That Ebizo guy, what kind of intelligence work did he do?!"
"When did Konoha produce another young man like this? There's been no news about him at all."
As he spoke, an old voice, tinged with grievance, came from behind him.
"Sister, I work in intelligence, not as a prophet."
"How could I possibly know all the young people who haven't made it big yet?"
"Shut up!" Chiyo suddenly turned around and raised her hand to slap a short, bald old man.
"You dared to talk back!" *Slap!* "You dared to talk back!" *Slap!*
Even though it was just a hit on the back, Ebizo blushed and hurriedly dodged.
"Wrong, wrong."
"I was wrong."
Chiyo kept moving: "What's wrong with it?!"
"Sister, it's all my fault. I didn't get the information right."
"Don't worry, I'll put that kid on my kill list when we get back."
Chiyo finally stopped, panting heavily.
A moment later, her gaze turned cold.
"Find out the other person's name and add it to the exchange."
"The reward will be based on two Jonin!"
"Okay, okay." Ebizo nodded hurriedly. "I'll take care of it right away."
Ignoring Ebizo's apology, Chiyo raised her head, her cloudy eyes gazing towards the direction of the Konoha camp.
The stunning image of the sword light cascading down lingered in my mind for a long time.
"Konoha always produces outstanding young people."
"It's so enviable, I want to destroy it!"
As the retreating Konoha ninjas approached the camp, the prepared Konoha garrison immediately began to provide support.
The ninjutsu emitted various colors of light, and the vibrations from the explosive tags and traps successfully intercepted the pursuing Sand Village.
Realizing that continuing the pursuit would not complete the mission, the enraged Sand Village unleashed a barrage of ninjutsu, leaving the camp entrance in ruins before reluctantly retreating.
"Thank you so much." Hyuga Hizashi was breathing heavily, one hand on his injured shoulder, the blood seeping out and staining half of his sleeve red. His face was also a little pale. After the Sunagakure pursuers retreated, he immediately expressed his gratitude to Shingetsu Seiun.
Shen Yue Xingyun was also in bad shape. His level 3 Instantaneous Movement Technique and level 3 Swordsmanship were used to their fullest extent, and the immense exertion nearly pushed his body to its limit. Calming his surging blood and qi, he replied, "It's my duty."
Hyuga Hizashi said, "I'll go back and report to Lady Tsunade first. We'll talk later."
Actually, besides this reason, he also wanted to find out the other person's name. He really couldn't even know what the other person's name was.
How dare you ask that?
"Wait a moment." Shingetsu Seiun called out to Hyuga Hizashi, who was about to leave, and stretched out his right hand, hovering over the wound on Hyuga's shoulder, amidst the latter's puzzled gaze.
The next second, the Palm Immortal Technique was activated. With a cool and tingling sensation, the flesh and blood at the wound quickly congealed into a scab, and the bleeding stopped.
After the injury was brought under control, Shingetsu Seiun removed his hand. His chakra was also quite depleted, and continuing to treat him would be too strenuous.
"alright."
"We'll have the medical ninjas treat it later."
Hyuga Hizashi gave Shingetsu Seiun a deep look, a mixture of gratitude and astonishment in his eyes. He nodded and quickly left.
Shingetsu Seiun didn't rush back. He kept searching with his eyes and finally spotted Sarutobi Asuma and Yuhi Kurenai.
Sarutobi Asuma sat unkempt on the ground, blood seeping from his arms, indicating he was injured. Kurenai Yuhi's face was pale, and she looked somewhat listless, clearly having just experienced combat during the retreat.
She quickly approached the two and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Hearing Shingetsu Seiun's voice, Yuhi Kurenai looked up and immediately checked on him. Finding him unharmed, she shook her head. "I'm fine. Asuma was wounded by an enemy's shuriken. Seiun, are you alright?"
"I'm fine," said Shingetsu Seiun, walking to Sarutobi Asuma's side and gathering chakra to cast Healing Palm Technique once more.
