Chapter 68:

Akira and Minato left the small town in Ame and traveled all the way back to Konoha's base.

The rain in the sky seems to be getting heavier, water droplets fall from the skies as if it is crying and splashes in the ground.

This country seems to be crying.

The rain in the country of rain never stops and it is full of depression and sadness.

Akira and Minato traveled all the way and Akira's injury was basically healed during the travel. Minato injury was more serious, but it did not affect his movement, so the two continue to rushed back to their base camp.

In almost half a day, Akira and Minato arrived at another small town in the Country of Rain. The rain in the sky continue to be heavier, accompanied by stronger winds howling.

In front, there was a burst of noise, there were exclamations and cries in the town and at the same time, there were fighting sounds. The sounds were very violent and reached Akira and Minato's ears.

"What's the situation? There seems to be someone fighting ahead?" Minato couldn't help but ask.

Akira squinted in front of him and communicated with sage of the six path. Although the sage was in a weak state, but his strong perception ability remains.

Six of the sage path immediately said: "There is a group of ninjas in front. Their chakra attributes are mainly earth. They may be the ninjas from Iwa."

Iwa ninjas? Akira wondered, he had never seen a Iwa ninja before. Curreng, the four countries are fighting indiscriminately and Iwa combat strength is also very strong. He had also heard that Orochimaru and his ninja troops have been having trouble with them, otherwise Tsunade and Jiraiya would not had lead more troops to support Orochimaru.

"Is Iwa actually here..." Akira thought to himself and then said to Minato : "Go, let's go and have a look."

"Okay." Minato agreed.

Akira and Mianto were also still in their disguise at this time and they were not afraid to be exposed and went straight into the town.

As soon as they entered the town, Akira smelled a faint smell of blood. Although it was washed away by the rain, the faint smell of blood reached Akira's nose.

At the same time, Akira also saw a few ninjas in the distance, all of them wearing Iwa forehead protector, burning and looting in the town.

There are about ten Iwa ninjas. Akira used his Sharingan to observe and found that most of the ninjas were just ordinary chunjn ninjas and the leader seemed to be only at special jonin level. Their strength was not a concern for Akira.

But these civilians could not resist against the slaughter of these chunins. These Iwa ninja wontonly killed many people and robbed a lot of food and money, making the town turn chaotic with screams and cries, but no one could stop them.

"Damn it, slaughtering civilians...!" Minato was very angry when he saw it and his eyes were full of anger and fury, as if they can burst out fire.

Generally in the ninja world, when the two countries are fighting, they usually only kill ninjas and it is still relatively rare for anyone to harm civilians. It is even rarer to burn, kill and loot like what these Iwa ninjas are doing, so Minato is so angry.

Six of the sage path seeing this was also very dissatisfied: "These people are really too much, they actually hurt innocent people in this war and dispute..."

Akira frowned and suddenly saw one Slim, petite and small figure among the Ame civilians while looking at the distant crowd

It was a little girl about four years old, all dirty, with light blue-purple hair and light orange pupils. She looked angry but scared of the Iwa ninjas who burned, killed and looted. There were tears in the corners of her eyes, but she tried not to cry as she curled up slightly, looking helpless and at a loss.

Akira's heart got excites.

Although the slender little girl in front of him was all dirty, Akira knew who she was at a glance.

Konan!

The future 'Akatsuki' organization angel, Konan!

At this time, it seems like konan has yet to meet Yahiko and Nagato. Currently, she is only four years old, maybe even less than four years old. She is helpless while facing the burning, killing and looting by Iwa Ninja.

Akira's eyes became cold and he squinted at Minato and said: "Minato, you don't have to do anything, let me kill these bastard Iwa ninjas alome."

Minato was taken aback, but still nodded: "Okay." Minato didn't have the slightest opinion regarding Akira decision to kill the Iwa ninja as he also felt that these Iwa ninjas should be killed.

Akira stepped forward, looking very conspicuous. Iwa ninjas who were burning and looting in the small town quickly noticed Akira.

"Hey, there is another kid here!"

"Boy, hurry up and hand over your money, otherwise we will kill you!" Two Iwa ninjas immediately walked up, sneered and prepared to attack Akira. Iwa ninja thought that Akira was just an ordinary kid, without any threat.

But at this time, Akira suddenly make his move!

Shing!

The shurikens shot out and several cold rays emerged. These two Iwa ninja were just chunin and were quickly killed by Akira.

The blood splashes around and the two Iwa ninjas bodies lost support and fell directly to the ground.

Akira's complexion remained unchanged and he continue to move to kill these Iwa ninjas. Akira didn't have any burden in his heart killing this sc.u.ms, so he didn't hesitate to make his move.

"Not good, this kid is a monster!"

"Hurry up!" the Iwa ninjas quickly discovered the anomaly, but it was too late. Moreover, the difference in strength between the two sides is not the same level. The strongest of among them is just a special jonin.

Akira only used the simplest combination of fire ninjutsu and shurikenjutsu to easily kill four of the Iwa ninja. In the end, only the leader among them was left and Akira killed him as well almost effortlessly.

"This..."

The Ame refugees saw this scene from a distance and many people rubbed their eyes unconsciously in disbelieve, but they had to believe it.

"We are saved?"

"Yes, this boy saved us..." The Ame refugees looked at Akira gratefully and they were all extremely excited.

Akira's expression remained unchanged, but he slowly walked towards Konan. Konan's eyes opened wide and she also looked at this big brother who was not much older than her. She only thought that this big brother was so amazing, killing those enemy ninjas so easily...

"Are you okay?" Akira walked towards Konan while showing smiling.

Konan nodded subconsciously, not knowing if it was a illusion, the rain in the sky seemed to have become lightee, similar to her mood which had gradually moved from sinking down hell to lifting up to heaven. Konan looked at Akira, as Akira actions had left an almost unforgettable impression in Konan's heart at this moment.

"I'm fine, I'm fine." Konan squeezed her small hand, rubbed the corners of her clothes, blinked her big beautiful eyes and said timidly.
