Chapter 619 Past

"All right."

I don't know how long it has passed, Tianzang at the entrance of the bedroom's secret passage suddenly said something, and stepped on the slanting stairs first, stepping into the darkness.

Naruto and Sai looked at each other, followed Tianzang into the dark passage, and went down the stairs.

The staircase road is not too long, but because there is no lighting in the secret passage, the visibility is almost zero.

Even if a ninja walks in this kind of passage, it is difficult to move freely.

However, it seemed that Tianzang had expected this situation long ago, and Tianzang took out a palm-sized flashlight from his ninja bag. Although the model was small, the light it emitted was very bright. The originally pitch-black secret path was instantly illuminated by lights, revealing the surrounding environment.

The dense floor, walls, and ceiling are all carefully polished by hand, which is by no means small in terms of the amount of work.

Although he was shocked that there would be such a well-designed secret passage under the bed board of the Chunye couple, but now is not the time to worry about it, Tianzang only wants to find the missing three members of the Chunye family as soon as possible.

Judging from the current development situation, this may be the only clue, and it must not be lost.

"There are footprints on the ground. Not only are they new, but they are also messy. They are definitely not two or three people, but at least fifteen or more."

Sai squatted down at this time, and also took out a small flashlight to illuminate the footprints on the ground, and touched it with his finger, expressing his opinion.

Naruto supported his knees, bent slightly, looked at these messy footprints with a troubled face, and tilted his head in doubt, wondering how Sai judged the information.

"Sure enough, as Hokage-sama said, the reason Asami Masumi attacked Naruto was to create the illusion of attacking Nine-Tails, to lure us into the trap, so that her accomplices would have time to evacuate safely."

The concentration of power in Anbu is something that only happens under special circumstances.

For example, nineteen years ago, when Chiba Shiraishi and others defected, they used Kyuubi as a bait to attract all Konoha's high-end combat power including Hokage, and more than half of Anbe's manpower was also lured over. In order to ensure Kyuubi's safety, this is a necessary measure.

In this way, the patrol strength in the rest of Konoha will definitely be reduced.

Asami Masumi quoted this method. Although Tsunade saw it through halfway, it did buy time for her accomplices to escape.

After all, it is very difficult to send so many people out of Konoha silently, and not too many each time.

It can be judged that Asami Masumi's accomplice passed through this secret passage and left Konoha more than an hour ago.

Having confirmed this, Tianzang and others moved on.

In the dim passage, the concept of time becomes very vague, and it gives people an extremely uncomfortable feeling of depression.

In the secret passage, only the sound of running footsteps could be heard.

Maybe advancing a few kilometers, Tianzang and others suddenly stopped and looked ahead in surprise.

I saw that what was placed in front was not a passage, but two secret passages that diverged.

There are footprints in the secret passage on the left, but there are no footprints in the secret passage on the right.

Normally speaking, it should be chasing the secret passage on the left, and the secret passage on the right is likely to be a trap for the enemy.

But this kind of trap can also be done in the opposite direction. For example, the secret passage without footprints on the right is safe, and the footprints on the left secret passage are camouflaged traces, a trap designed to make people take it lightly.

"Two secret paths, which one is the correct one?"

Naruto stood in front of the two secret passages, frowning and thinking.

"It is also possible that the two secret passages are traps."

Sai said with a smile.

"Eh?"

Naruto turned his head in astonishment, and looked at the mysterious smile on Sai's face.

"When I was training at the roots in the past, I occasionally encountered such a trap that appeared to be a dead end. In fact, the real exit was hidden."

After finishing speaking, Sai did not talk nonsense, unfolded the scroll, and began to draw black snakes that were only half a meter long on it, and then gave life to them with chakra.

"Go!"

Following Sai's order, the black snakes spread out and charged into the two secret passages.

About a minute passed, and the black snake rushing into the two secret passages did not cause any movement.

Just when Naruto was getting impatient, there was a loud bangno, it should be said that there were two loud bangs, but because they sounded at the same time, it sounded like only one loud bang.

The hot flames shone in the two secret passages, followed by the sound of stones falling to the ground, causing the ground to vibrate.

Not long after, the two secret passages were buried by broken stones and became a dead end.

"Look, it looks like the exit is hidden."

Sai put away the scroll, stood up and smiled at Naruto.

"I didn't expect you to be quite powerful, Sai, you can guess this."

Naruto praised like this.

If it were him, he might have stepped into the enemy's trap and was buried alive in the secret passage.

"This is just the basic ability of being a root ninja. In the past, during training, I have encountered more dangerous and despicable traps than this..."

Sai lowered his head, thinking of something for some reason, his voice became smaller and smaller, his eyes were silent.

Ignoring the communication between Naruto and Sai, Tenzang ordered Anbe who followed:

"Look around carefully, the hidden safety exit should be nearby, not too far away."

The bright moonlight shrouded the silvery forest, and Masumi Asami, who was still wearing Konoha Jominin uniform and a white coat, advanced rapidly in the snow-covered forest, leaving a white afterimage on the road, which was the same color as the snow in the forest.

The cold north wind blew across the border, and the temperature in the forest began to drop sharply, getting colder and colder.

What Masumi Asami breathed out was white gas. While running, the white gas spit out was dragged backward like a meteor.

The round black pupils turned to the sides, although the movement was very small, but there was an unfamiliar Chakra approaching him, no doubt someone was planning to sneak attack.

Sure enough, when she just ran to an open space, a figure flashed from behind the big tree and rushed towards her like lightning.

Without hesitation, Masumi Asami turned her body quickly, her black hair fluttering to the other side in the wind, and she waved a half-moon-shaped blue blade in her hand.

Blood splattered.

Konoha Ninja, whose chest was cut by her Chakra scalpel, just whimpered in pain and fell down.

The blood spurting from his chest splashed onto her white coat and the glasses lenses on her face.

There was a slight smile on her blood-stained face, and she stood there motionless, giving the impression that she was admiring her own masterpiece.

Then, her body suddenly turned to one side, and a blade struck from behind pierced her fluttering white coat without warning, but because of this, the flying white coat instantly blocked the attacker's vision, making him widen his pupils with a premonition.

Pfft!

The pain in the back of the neck caused the attacking Konoha ninja to lose consciousness instantly.

The tough and sharp chakra scalpel, like a famous knife, cut open the back of the Konoha ninja's neck lightly, about half a foot deep, like cutting tofu.

One hit kill.

"Since you are chasing up, it means that you have come with the consciousness of death. I actually hate killing people, because every time I use a scalpel, I will get blood all over my body, and it is very troublesome to take care of."

Asami Masumi looked down at the blood on her white coat, took off the blood-stained glasses, and wiped them with the handkerchief she took out of the white coat.

Wait until the blood stains on it are wiped off before putting them on the eyes again.

"It's nearby, Hokage-sama has orders, don't let her escape!"

Not far away, there was such a shout, the footsteps were very chaotic, and there were a lot of people.

Not only Anbe, but even the patrolling force outside Konoha Village that patrols the territory of the Fire Country has also been activated by Tsunade, who is about to arrest her and bring her back to Konoha for trial.

Glancing at the commotion, Asami Masumi turned around and ran out quickly, disappearing into the open space.

If she is entangled with these guys, even she will feel very troublesome.

After all, she is just an ordinary medical ninja. If she is not careful, she cannot escape from this dense encirclement.

"I have done everything that can be done, I hope there will be no accidents over there."

She was referring to Haruno Zhao's route.

In order to let the last group of people transfer safely, she did not hesitate to use herself as the last bait, attracting most of the firepower of Hokage and Anbe. If accidents still happen like this, she can only express her regret.

As for guilt, of course there is no such feeling.

Strictly speaking, although she has a superior-subordinate relationship with Baishi, it is only a formal relationship.

In the final analysis, whether it is Konoha or Chiba Shiraishi, she has no so-called sense of belonging.

Konoha ruined her life, she wants to witness the decline and even destruction of this village with her own eyes.

Only in this way can the dark hole in her heart that is constantly beating be filled.

As for Chiba Shiraishi, she also couldn't trust her, as she and him were using each other.

It just so happened that the other party's purpose coincided with his own.

The opponent uses himself to obtain information about Konoha.

And he used the information sent out to take revenge on the village of Konoha and accelerate its demise.

However, after that, I still need to go to the country of ghosts to complete the final transaction.

Before that, Konoha's pursuers must be thrown off.

There were more and more footsteps running towards my ears, and they were coming from all directions, getting closer and closer to my position.

Although she has sensory ninjutsu and can give early warning of the enemy's position, there must also be sensory ninjas among Konoha's patrol troops.

In this case, the two sides can be said to be fighting with their cards out.

"Here, grab her with your hands!"

With the help of sensory ninjutsu, the location was quickly exposed.

Asami Masumi seemed to ignore the rapid and intense shouts around her, and galloped faster, rushing into the darkness of the forest ahead.

Before she had advanced too far, the kunai and shuriken that appeared above her head fell down like a hail of bullets.

The number is extremely large, under normal circumstances, such an attack cannot be dodged at all.

However, Asami Masumi's figure swayed slightly in an instant, leaving only a cool breeze in place, and quickly disappeared from there.

Staring at the Konoha ninja there secretly, his pupils widened, he didn't see how the opponent was moving at all, and disappeared from his field of vision.

"How is that possibleerr!?"

It was cold under his neck, and the chakra scalpel with the smell of disinfectant passed across his neck silently. Before he could say any more words, bright red blood spewed out from his throat in an instant. His whole body seemed to lose strength, and fell from the shady branches of the trees, dyeing the white snow in the forest red.

"Damn it!"

Seeing that another person died, the Konoha ninjas chasing up were very angry.

One of them quickly formed a seal and opened his mouth to Asami Masumi:

"Fire EscapePhoenix Immortal Fire Art!"

The body is smaller than Hao Fireball, but there are a lot of **** of flames, and the speed is quite fast. In the blink of an eye, all the dodgeable directions of Asami Masumi are blocked, and the momentum is amazing.

However, unexpectedly, Asami Masumi smiled slightly at this, her figure flickered like the wind, and her figure rushed to extreme speed.

Scattered the attacking fireball with his body, and rushed to the Konoha ninja who released the fire escape ninja in the blink of an eye.

There were serious burn marks on the white coat, and the palm holding the Chakra scalpel was also burned by the flames, and the flesh was scorched, but she swung the Chakra scalpel from bottom to top regardless, waving a beautiful blue brilliance.

"Varied-"

Didn't expect the opponent to do this at all, and it was too late for the ninja who released the fire escape to dodge.

The Chakra scalpel ran along the ninja's abdomen to the chest, and finally even the flesh and bones of the jaw were quickly cut open.

His body gushed out blood like a sprinkler, and after losing his strength, he fell on the snow. The blood that continued to flow from the wound formed a pool of blood, staining the ground red.

"This guy!"

The ninjas on both sides were startled, it was because the companion's death was too miserable and weird.

"That's why I don't like killing people with my hands. It's too troublesome to wash clothes."

There were more bloodstains on the white coat, Asami Masumi pressed her forehead helplessly, looking like she was suffering from a severe headache.

"Damn! Don't underestimate people!"

Directly regarded the opponent's helpless words as a provocation, and the surrounding Konoha ninjas swarmed up, not giving the opponent a chance to breathe.

Asami Masumi turned around and flashed, intersecting with one of the Konoha ninja figures.

In mid-air, the Konoha ninja didn't realize the pain until his chest was cut open and the spurted blood flew past his eyes. His chest was cut open and his ribs were broken.

clang

The Chakra scalpel collided with a chakrcolored ninja knife, making a crisp metallic sound in the forest.

The strength bursting from the opposite side was far above her own, Asami Masumi felt her arms go numb, and looked at the Konoha ninja who was fighting with her in surprise.

Wearing Jonin's ninja uniform, he has a strong physique, and the muscles all over his body are as hard as steel. The style of the ninja sword is also different from that of ordinary ninja swords.

Moaning slightly in distress, Asami Masumi stepped back and quickly distanced herself from the opponent.

Wrestling with this guy's explosive ninja is completely asking for trouble.

"Earth Dungeon Crack the Earth and turn your palm!"

The moment Asami Masumi stepped back and hit the ground, a Konoha ninja had already aimed at the right time. After forming a seal, he pressed his hands to the ground, cracking the ground under Asami Masumi's feet, causing her to step on the ground and lose her foothold.

"Successful!"

Holding the handle of the knife with both hands, Konoha Jominin's eyes lit up, seizing this hard-won opportunity to suppress. In an instant, a large amount of chakra gathered in his legs and feet.

Boom!

The earth that was originally shattered exploded again.

The strong airflow rushed wantonly, blowing away the surrounding sand, stone and snow.

"Cough!"

Compared to this Konoha ninja, Asami Masumi's weaker body hit an uneven stone with her back, her face turned pale, and her lips gritted her teeth slightly, showing a hint of scarlet.

Using the chakra scalpel in her right hand to support the suppression of the ninja knife, but the terrifying force pouring in made her unbearable, and she felt as if her finger bones were about to shatter, and she lost consciousness.

"snort!"

Konoha Kamijin let out a heavy muffled sound, his strength surged again, and the generous ninja sword pressed up again, the blade touched Asami Masumi's shoulder, and blood flowed out, staining her uniform and white coat red.

Facing the brutal suppression of this Konoha Jonin, Asami Masumi still had a smile on her pale face, and in her perception, more and more ninjas were rushing over.

But there was no timidity on her face. With her free left hand, she pinched the temple of the glasses on her eyes and folded them lightly.

Click!

The temples of the glasses seem to have touched a mechanism, detached from the glasses frame, and a slender knife is exposed at the tip, which is more delicate and slender than a medical scalpel.

Seeing this scene, Konoha Kami Shinobu's face changed drastically, and at the same time as he retreated quickly, a breeze flew over his cheek, and the temple that flew out cut a wound on his face.

Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the smell of cold disinfectant poured into his nostrils, and his neck seemed to be in a double sky of ice and fire, bitingly cold and burning like fire.

I saw the chakra scalpel in Asami Masumi's right hand sharply inserted into his throat.

"It's...hell..."

Taking this sentence as the end of life, Konoha Rinpoche fell down with unwillingness.

The lenses were stained red with blood, and the glasses that lost one side of the bracket, although they were still hanging on Asami Masumi's face, had fallen off towards the bridge of the nose.

"team leader!"

"Kill her and avenge the captain!"

The surrounding Konoha ninjas undoubtedly fell into a rage, and murderous stalks followed.

Asami Masumi threw the glasses that lost one temple on the side of the road, took out a pair of brand new glasses from the red-dyed white coat, and put them on her face.

Then, she showed an emotionless smile that was so clean that it could even be called cold, and the Chakra scalpel in her hand released a blue light like flowing water, and greeted the Konoha ninjas who surrounded her.

That was before everything happened

Several years have passed since the Second Ninja World War, but the situation between countries is still tense.

The Ninja Village of a big country, as always, is extremely thirsty for military power, and a small country that surrounds and relies on the breath of a big country to survive can only live in this tense situation, uneasy.

Since the medical reform, Konoha's medical ninjas have sprung up like mushrooms. Although not all teams have been covered, it is an indisputable fact that Konoha's ninja sacrifice rate in missions has plummeted in recent years.

In this turbulent and chaotic world, it is extremely lucky to obtain a moment of peace.

"The weather is really hot..."

Passing his hand to his forehead, staring at the sun shining brightly above his head, Shiraishi, who was standing outside the clothing store, muttered in dissatisfaction.

I really don't want to go out on this hot day.

And limited by the limitations of the Ninja World, Konoha Village does not have an air conditioner to adjust the air-conditioning.

Although there is an underground freezer in Liuli's house, which can bring a bit of coolness in the hot summer, there is no such superior condition outside.

Not to mention not wanting to go out during the holidays, the days of going to ninja school or working in the hospital are even more difficult in this kind of weather.

Normally, he doesn't like to go out in this kind of weather. Even if the teacher Sakumo Hatake committed suicide in fear of guilt not long ago, he needed to keep an eye on the Anbu and the roots, but this part of the work was only handed over to the general, and he himself did not need to do it himself.

But now it is different, the festival is coming soon.

Today I have to accompany Ruri to buy summer kimonos for the festival.

Perhaps this is the style of the wealthy lady. Although the family has a lot of kimonos for festivals, they still enjoy going out to buy them every year.

However, when I think of Ayane, who might be staring at her now, maybe tomorrow...

Hope this year's summer festival can unfold peacefully.

Baishi, who has never believed in gods and Buddhas, couldn't help but put his palms together to worship at this time. As for which **** to visit, it is not known.

At this moment, a pair of young men and women passing by caught Shiraishi's attention.

The man and woman, about five years apart, are like lovers at this moment, holding hands intimately, talking and laughing as they walk across the street in front of Baishi.

Maybe he noticed Baishi's gaze, the slightly older young man smiled gently at Baishi as a greeting, and then took the girl beside him and left along the front of the street. It seemed that he was also out to purchase items for the summer festival in the near future.

Asami Masumi.

is the name of the girl next to the young man.

Barely considered an acquaintance with him, after all, he was a classmate of the same medical experiment class.

Currently working in the pharmacy department of Konoha Hospital, responsible for drug development. Although young, he is already the leader of a drug development team in the pharmacy department, like a rising star in the medical field of Konoha.

But because he is usually taciturn, and his interpersonal relationship seems to be average, so he is a lukewarm face to anyone, let alone cuddling with a man intimately, and showing a shy and innocent smile...

Before it was changed, it was hard for Shiraishi to imagine that his female classmate would be as enthusiastic about love as an ordinary girl.

Although she doesn't look ugly, wearing thick and rustic glasses, she looks like an ascetic girl.

At a glance, people will know that the other party has nothing to do with being in love with a creature like a man.

What's more, the man beside her is young and handsome. From the outside, he is very attractive to women.

However, such a fact happened wonderfully.

However, that man... Shiraishi rubbed his chin, and his eyes lightened slightly when he lowered his head.

Although I am not very sure, if I remember correctly, my name should be Takeshi Fujisaki. Although he is young, he is already a member of the Konoha Ninja.

Not only that, but in General Tu's investigation, the other party seemed to have some kind of connection with the Third Hokage.

is a Naruto school ninja who can "reach the sky" in Konoha.

"What are you doing?"

A sudden cold voice came from the side, Liuli walked out from the clothing store at some point, empty-handed.

"Nothing, I was thinking about something. What, didn't you choose?"

Looking at Liuli with empty hands, Shiraishi asked.

"I didn't see the one I liked, let's go, go to the next one."

"OK."

Baishi nodded, and quietly sent an order to the earth general underground, and then followed Liuli as if nothing had happened.

Track this man named Takeshi Fujisaki, maybe there will be surprises. Bai Shi held such an idea in his heart.
