Chapter 317: Gouzi Literature Endures

"Quick, it's over there!"

On the dark street, several figures shuttled between the rooftops. They were the Kusanagi who came to look for Shenhuo and others.

"Why is there one missing? Who hasn't come yet?"

The captain of the Grass Ninja ran at the front. He glanced at the men following behind him and found that one person was missing.

"Coming, coming~"

At this moment, a belated figure jumped into the team. It was the grass ninja who had been slapped by Sasuke Sarutobi before. But at this moment, he acted as if nothing was wrong, nodding and bending. call.

"Be more careful next time."

The captain of the grass ninja didn't take a closer look, let alone suspect it. This late grass ninja was a cautious guy, and he always stayed at the back if there was any danger. He had long been accustomed to it.

"There was a large-scale fire escape movement over there just now. If nothing else happens, it's the guy from the Divine Fire. Please be alert later and don't lose your place to the Grass Ninja Village!"

After casually encouraging him, the grass ninja captain looked slightly solemn.

When Shen Huo defected five years ago, his strength had already reached the level of an elite captain, equivalent to the current elite jounin. Even if they had more people and strength, they might not be able to take down that guy.

And there is a weird experimental subject. If they are not careful, they may be wiped out.

"yes!"

The grass ninjas who received the order nodded in agreement, and the grass ninja disguised as Sasuke Sarutobi also naturally agreed.

In front of dark alley

Shen Huo, who checked several times and found no traces of illusion, turned his gaze to the faces of the three little people who were looking at each other. Their expressions were no longer as calm as before, but a bit more ferocious.

"Why can't you little brats just behave and be eaten?"

"Huh? Do you think what you are saying is human? We are not food, why should we listen to you?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was helped up by Danzo, rolled his eyes at Shenhuo and looked at him with a wise expression.

"Whoosh~"

The stagnant divine fire directly threw out several kunai, directly in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen and others. I thought that this attack could take away the lives of these annoying brats, but in the end, the three little ones seemed to be hanging. Yes, he twisted his body and easily avoided the life-threatening kunai.

"Ah? Why did it become faster?"

Unexpectedly, he just avoided it subconsciously, and actually dodged it. Sarutobi Hiruzen and others looked at the kunai stuck on the wall behind them in surprise.

After confirming that the other party had not betrayed them, they all said that they had activated the gene lock in a desperate situation, and their strength had successfully reached the half-step shadow level.

The three little ones, whose bodies became much lighter, had no idea that they could save their lives twice in a row, all relying on the inconspicuous blanket under their feet, which was the equipment that Uchiha Gin had worked so hard to build.

[Banshee Veil: Provides a layer of spell shield to the wearer and his allies to block the next enemy skill and increase movement speed by 25%. (Cooling time 30s)]

"Eat eat."

The cooked fat butt slipped away from her mouth. The hungry Mako in her belly had a faint tendency to go berserk. Her flashing red eyes stared at Sarutobi Hiruzen and others. The crystal liquid hung down from the corner of her mouth, and her pale hands were unconscious. He grabbed forward, and the hoarse murmurs in his mouth sent chills down the spines of the three little animals.

"What the hell is she?"

Shimura Danzo, who had just suffered from this strange woman, couldn't help but ask,

"Mako is nothing! She is my wife!"

Shenhuo looked at Danzo angrily, his eyes full of murderous intent. This woman was obviously his reverse scale.

"ha?"

The expressions of the three little ones froze at the same time, and then they looked at Shenhuo and Shenhuo with very teasing eyes, with a meaning that anyone with a discerning eye could understand.

Brother, you are really hungry. If you find an ogre as your wife, aren't you afraid of being treated like a buffet when doing things?

"Don't look at us like that!"

What Shenhuo couldn't bear the most was this kind of worldly outlook. He immediately raised his palms and wanted to take the lives of Sarutobi Hiruzen and the other three.

"Swish swish~"

At this moment, dozens of poisonous kunai shot out from the darkness, aiming directly at the back of the divine fire.

"eat"

Seeing that he was about to dodge, Zhenzi on the side saw this, ducked behind the divine fire, and swallowed the endless suffering in the sky.

"Puff~Puff~"

After being sneak-attacked, Shenhuo had no choice but to give up the pursuit of Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others, and turned around to be on guard. The three little ones succeeded in saving their lives again. While breathing a sigh of relief, they stared at the darkness not far away, guessing who was coming.

"Rebellious Ninja Divine Fire, why don't you hurry up and capture me!"

I saw several fully armed grass ninjas slowly walking out of the darkness. The middle-aged grass ninja captain, the leader, looked at the slightly embarrassed Shenhuo with a serious expression, with a trace of fear in his eyes.

"No wonder they are so enthusiastic, it turns out they are fellow villagers~"

After Shenhuo saw the visitor, he felt slightly relieved. He could still easily deal with these rotten grass ninjas.

"God-given opportunity, let's escape!"

Seeing that Shenhuo's attention was attracted by the sudden appearance of a group of grass ninjas, Shimura Danzo's eyes lit up, and then he whispered to his companions beside him,

"We think so too!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen and Uchiha Mirror nodded in agreement, so the three of them started to retreat quietly in the dark night, not daring to make any sound during the whole process.

"Eat eat."

But how could Mako, who regarded the three little ones as delicacies, let a few people get their wish? She dodged and stood in front of the three Sarutobi Hiruzen who wanted to run away, and her mouth was still trembling with trembling words.

It was this action that successfully attracted the attention of the grass ninja captain. Looking at the woman who exuded an obscure and strange aura, his brows furrowed into a knot, as if he recalled something bad.

"She is still like this, I said she should have been destroyed long ago."

"Don't you think Mako's life is miserable enough?"

After hearing the words of Captain Kusanagi, Shenhuo's expression became very terrifying. His fists were clenched tightly, with murderous intent visible to the naked eye in his eyes.

"Haha, it was obviously your cowardice that harmed her, but now you act like a victim. It's really disgusting."

Judging from the words of Captain Kusanagi, he seemed to know some inside information, and after hearing these words, Shenhuo seemed to be deflated, with a slightly panicked look on his face, and the killing intent that had just been blazing suddenly dissipated.

"It's not all you. This is all your fault. It's you who turned Mako into this human-like creature, unlike a ghost!"

"Regarding that box, the village has made new progress. Come back with us. Maybe we can cure this woman."

Seeing that there was a flaw in Shen Huo's psychological defense, Captain Kusanagi began to use words to induce him.

"Really?"

As if he had grasped a life-saving straw, Shenhuo's face showed a look of hope, and he asked in an almost trembling voice,

"We are fellow villagers, how could we lie to you?"

Captain Kusanagi felt happy, but did not show this emotion on his face, and answered seriously with a very sincere expression.

"That's really awesome."

Shenhuo showed great agitation and walked towards the grass ninja without any dangerous aura, which made all the grass ninjas relax their vigilance.

"Shenhuo, you must believe in the organization, we will not."

Seeing Shenhuo stumbling towards him, he didn't realize the danger. He winked and asked the two grass ninjas around him to control the rebellious ninja. At the same time, he spoke in a sincere tone with criticisms that he didn't even believe.

As a result, just halfway through speaking, Captain Kusanagi saw Shenhuo with his head lowered and a disdainful smile on his lips, and his heart immediately tightened.

"Come back quickly!"

"ah?"

The two grass ninjas turned around in confusion. The next moment, their consciousness stayed at this moment forever.

Behind them, Shenhuo, who had unknowingly pulled out the tattered sword from his waist, had a look of deep disdain on his face. He gently wiped the blood on the blade with his sleeves. Looking at the two headless corpses falling to the ground, the smile at the corner of his mouth grew wider. Be cruel.

"How dare you!?"

The grass ninja captain's heart was bleeding. This boy's acting skills, which he learned somewhere, actually deceived his sharp eyes, and accidentally hooked up with two loyal men.

"Hahaha, you are so old, how can you still be so naive? Since I can cut off everything and leave, I am naturally completely disappointed in you. No matter what you say is true or false, I will never believe you again. Guy’s bullshit.”

Shenhuo held up a beautiful sword, and the sword with a deadly cold light was pointed at the angry Kusanagi captain. From the beginning, he had never believed every word said by the middle-aged man in front of him. In Shenhuo's eyes, They are worthy only of being food for the True Son.

"I hope you won't upset Mako's stomach."

After saying this, Shenhuo's body turned into a sharp bolt of lightning and headed towards the Kusanagi's team.

"He's only one person, don't panic, come on!"

The stunned Grass Ninja Captain stopped pretending and waved his hand. The Grass Ninjas around him took out their weapons one after another.

"Bang!"

"Bang!!"

"Boom!!!"

The divine fire wielding the sharp blade was like a swimming dragon. He avoided the attacks of hidden weapons one after another with great agility. The saber in his hand had a trembling cold light, like a death sickle that harvested life. Every time he swung it, there was a The Nagusa nin fell down.

"hateful!"

His men were killed one after another. Captain Kusanagi's eyes were red with anger. He formed seals with his hands at an extremely fast speed, and a harsh storm sound sounded from his palms.

Wind Release · Gale Wind Palm

With his hands filled with wind energy that was compressed to the point of being visible to the naked eye, the Grass Ninja Captain instantly got close to the red-eyed divine fire, and slapped the opponent's back with a heart-piercing palm, which was wide open.

"Die!"

At this moment, the grass ninja captain no longer cared about the capture order issued by the village. He just wanted to kill this despicable traitorous ninja and avenge his men.

"Who are you."

His life-threatening sword was "barely" blocked by a savage-faced grass ninja. Shenhuo couldn't help but feel a little confused in his heart. He always felt that the public-faced grass ninja in front of him was knocked out by him and then fell to the ground. Shinobu looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere just now.

However, the sound of breaking wind from behind interrupted his thoughts. From the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the menacing Grass Ninja Captain. He laughed and used the Grass Hidden Technique with one hand to deal with it.

"Bang!"

As soon as the attacks from both sides came into contact, there was a loud and ear-piercing noise. The civilians who were hiding in their homes and shivering, after hearing the noise, covered their heads tightly with quilts and prayed silently in their hearts. Ask the ninja masters of Konoha to work harder and eliminate the man-eating evil spirit.

"There!"

At the same time, two figures who were wandering around the town lit up their eyes after hearing the harsh sound, jumped up, and ran towards the scene of the incident.

"Uh-huh. Ah!!!"

The aftermath of the palm fight between the two stirred up dust all over the sky. After a while, the smoke dissipated. Captain Kusanagi, who was knocked several meters away, was wailing on the ground in pain.

His arm was bent at a weird angle. All five fingers of his big hand that had just released Gale Palm were cut off by a huge force, and the blood from the wound could not stop flowing.

Although the divine fire on the other side was not lying on the ground with his mouth and eyes closed, he was not feeling well at the moment. Although Gale Palm was only a very basic ninjutsu, the grass ninja captain in front of him had been immersed in wind escape for many years and had already mastered the wind. Changes in the nature of attribute chakra.

This gale palm, which vividly demonstrated the wind attribute cutting ability, completely destroyed the meridians in one of Shenhuo's arms. The scrapped arm hung feebly by his side. All the superficial skin and flesh had disappeared, leaving only the dark red muscles. There was a slight shiver in the air.

"Haha, it seems I won."

Holding back the excruciating pain, Shenhuo smiled very happily. The grass ninja captain in front of him had both arms disabled. From the beginning, he became a prey and became a lamb to be slaughtered.

As for the grass ninja who followed him, they were all lying on the ground not knowing whether they were alive or dead after he killed them instantly with sword skills.

"Mako, dinner is ready!"

Killing these grass ninjas who came to hunt down meant that their position had been exposed. Shenhuo knew that it was not advisable to stay here for a long time, so he turned to Mako and shouted to the three little ones in the alley with big eyes and small eyes,

"eat"

Mako was originally stimulating the activity of the ingredients and trying to achieve the best taste. After hearing the call of the divine fire, Mako turned around obediently and looked at the fresh ingredients on the ground. A look of excitement appeared on his expressionless face.

Save the most delicious thing for last!

Glancing at the prepared Sarutobi Hiruzen team, Mako ducked in front of the Kusanagi captain who fell to the ground. Looking at the somewhat familiar face on the other side, she opened her mouth slightly,

"Don't come over here!"

The grass ninja captain, who had lost his fighting power, looked at the woman in front of him who was smelling fishy, ​​with a look of horror in his eyes, and couldn't help shouting,

"Eat eat."

However, for Mako, the fear of ingredients is the best seasoning. Without any hesitation, she slowly spit out a black mist with a strange smell from her mouth. The grass ninja captain squirmed backwards after seeing it. Closing his body, he felt as if he had seen the most terrifying thing in the world.

"Please let me go, I won't tell anyone about you!"

When death was imminent, Captain Kusanagi was still struggling to his death.

"Let you go? Who would have thought of letting Mako go at that time?"

The divine fire walked over with one arm hanging down, the indifference in his eyes was chilling.

"Let's get started."

The diffuse black mist had a consciousness of its own, and enveloped the Grass Ninja Captain in the blink of an eye. The curious Sarutobi, Hiruzen and the other three stretched their necks, wanting to see how the man-eating ghost ate.

"ah!!!"

As a result, only a miserable scream was heard, and the strong grass ninja captain disappeared on the spot, and the black mist seemed to have some unfinished intentions. After devouring one person, it turned its target to an unknown person on the ground. On all the grass ninjas.

"Little greedy cat, eat it, it's all yours."

She was already used to seeing Mako eating. Shenhuo used his good hand to stroke the woman's hair and spoke in a very doting tone.

"Eat eat."

Mako's eyes narrowed slightly, showing an expression of enjoyment, but he didn't know whether it was because of the pleasure brought by eating or the gentle caress of Shenhuo.

"Fuck! Let's go!"

Seeing such a weird way of eating, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but curse. Even the powerful middle-aged grass ninja was no match for that man. The three of them would only become cannibals' after-dinner snacks if they stayed.

"The wind is tight and pulling~"

The three of them looked at each other in tacit understanding and ran towards the dark alley behind them at the same time. The alleys in this town extend in all directions. As long as you hide in them, you might still have a chance of survival.

"Where do you want to go? Snacks~"

However, as soon as they ran a few steps, the scattered voice of the divine fire rang in their ears. The ghostly figure of the other party stood on their only path at some point, looking at the three little ones at leisure.

"Who are you?"

Seeing that the last way to survive was cut off, Sarutobi Hiruzen began to delay time, hoping that his father would discover the movement here in time and come to rescue him.

"My name is Shenhuo. According to today's standards, I should be a ninja from Kusanagi Village, but I defected."

Glancing at Mako who was still eating, Shenhuo knew that he still had some time. In a state of emptiness, he chose to pass the time and answer questions for the few brats who were about to put the table on the table.

"You are so strong, why did you defect?"

Unexpectedly, the other party did not take action to capture them immediately. Instead, they started chatting with great interest. Sarutobi and Hiruzen, who had some hope in their hearts, continued to ask questions.

"You brats have a good sense. I was once ranked among the strongest in the Country of Grass."

Looking at the childish faces of the three little ghosts in front of him, Shenhuo couldn't help but recall the night five years ago, when the child at the watchdog tore his clothes and begged, and the complex expression on his face flashed across his face.

"Anyone who makes them do anything unworthy of us or defect is a minor offense. They should all be killed!"

Recalling the unbearable memory, Shenhuo's face suddenly became ferocious, and the addictive aura made the three little ones a little breathless. However, in order to buy time, Uchiha Kage still had the courage to continue asking,

"Who are they, and what outrageous things have they done?"

"Kusano Minoru, a bunch of pathetic people who only want to rule the world. They are the ones who turned Mako into this."

With his emotions in place, Shenhuo didn't have any worries. He had been hiding in the graveyard for these years and had no one to talk to except Mako, so these three little guys who were quite pleasing to the eye in front of him became the target of his confidance.

"Mako? Is she the beautiful cannibal sister?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi heard an unfamiliar female name and took a seat. He pointed at the woman who was eating seriously. He hesitated and changed his words to something nicer.

"Haha, you little brat will grow up to be a pervert. Yes, she is Mako, my beloved wife."

Shenhuo was quite impressed by Sarutobi Hiruzen's compliments and looked at the weird kid in front of him with a little pity.

You're great, but you're going to die tonight.

"Then why is she like this?"

Once again lamenting Shenhuo's good character of not being picky about food, the three little ones asked in unison. This was also the biggest doubt that had been lingering in their hearts.

"Huh~ It's a long story, so I won't."

The story between himself and Mako was too long. Shenhuo didn't want to make this painful memory public, so he was ready to drop the topic.

"ah!"

The three little ones saw the divine fire and didn't want to mention it anymore, which meant that their death was near. In desperation, they started to dig out their pockets frantically, but Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura only had ninja tools in their pockets, which was not attractive at all.

Fortunately, there was Uchiha Mirror. He took out a lot of delicious snacks and drinks from his backpack and pushed them in front of Shenhuo without reservation.

Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo almost bowed their heads and bowed, looking at the Uchiha mirror with eyes full of respect for their fathers.

You have to see your adoptive father at the critical moment!

"Please, we love to hear it!"

"Oh? Seeing that you are so sincere, I will make an exception and tell you something."

Shenhuo looked at the snacks and drinks in front of him and decided to tell these three gossiping brats about the great love story between himself and Mako.

"The story begins twenty years ago. At that time, Mako and I were still orphans wandering in the Land of Grass. We were fortunate enough to be taken in by the ninja clan. We thought it would be a blessing after all our hardships, but we unexpectedly stepped into another world that was bottomless. "The darkness"

Sipping a small bottle of sweet water in a children's size, Shen Huo's thoughts returned to that war-torn era.

In a slightly old house, a richly dressed old man looked at the two young girls who depended on each other in front of him and asked softly,

"Children, what are your names?"

The skinny young Shenhuo protected the equally slender girl behind him. He was not fooled by the kind-faced old man in front of him, but instead was very wary.

"Don't be afraid, I'm a good person."

Seeing that Shen Huo remained silent, a hint of impatience flashed through the old man's narrowed eyes, but he continued to speak in a very kind tone,

Even so, the young man remained unmoved, but soon, a harsh sound broke the stalemate between the two parties.

"Gulu~Gulu~"

"Sorry, Lord Shen, I'm really hungry."

The girl who was being protected behind her tightly held Shen Huo's shabby clothes with her two small hands, her voice was as low as a mosquito's fly, and her dirty little face was flushed with shame.

"It turns out I'm hungry, come and eat!"

Seeing this, the old man smiled slightly and stepped aside, revealing the food on the table behind him. Even if it was just some simple meals, it was undoubtedly a rare delicacy for a child who had been hungry for several days.

"Gudong~"

Shenhuo swallowed hard. He had always been extremely wary of the suspicious old man in front of him.

In the process of wandering, he had heard many rumors about abducting perverted boys and girls. What if this old guy was coveting Mako's beauty, or maybe he was interested in him?

"Shenjun! It's food!"

Mako, who was already dizzy from hunger, had saliva hanging from the corners of his mouth, and looked at the food on the table with bright eyes.

Seeing Mako's appearance, Shenhuo felt a pain in his heart, and turned to look at the smiling old man. After a moment, he finally calmed down, took off his pants full of holes, and pointed his dirty butt towards the old man. He raised his head in the direction, covered his head and gritted his teeth, and said in a low voice,

"Come at me if you have anything, don't hurt Mako!" (End of Chapter)
