Chapter 46： Ambush

“Hoo!”

“It was really dangerous just now!”

The kunai fell and cut off the head of the Mist ninja chuunin.

While holding the head of the Mist ninja Chuunin in his hand, Cross Country was breathing heavily, not only because of the fatigue from the previous rounds of battles, but also because of the tension lingering in the moment of life and death!

Undoubtedly, if we talk about the true strength of cross-country, he is on par with the Mist Ninja Chuunin.

Even if cross-country really breaks out, it will only take a matter of seconds to deal with the previous Mist ninja Chuunin. After all, the Mist ninja Chuunin does not understand many secrets of cross-country.

With the use of many secret techniques, it is possible to instantly kill the Mist ninja Chuunin off-road.

However, the only disadvantage in cross-country is in combat experience.

Obviously, the Mist Ninja Chuunin had far more combat experience than cross-country, so the combat that could get a full score for cross-country suddenly became a barely passing grade.

However, it happened to be the confrontation with the fog ninja chunin that made Cross Country truly realize the cruelty of the battlefield.

In the battlefield, regardless of consumption or serious injury, as long as you kill the enemy while you can survive, that is victory. Moreover, when fighting on the battlefield, you should try your best to find ways to kill the enemy as quickly as possible. It is best to cut off the opponent's head before the enemy can use his trump card. That is the best way to fight.

It's like going off-road. First you use shurikens to test, and then you use Konoha Tornado to press forward step by step. What's the use in the end?

Didn’t the plan still fail under the ruthlessness of the Mist ninja chuunin, and even face the danger of almost death?

So, after using the trump card of the Shadow Clone Technique, Cross Country barely won, and successfully harvested the head of the Mist Ninja Chuunin, he slowly closed his eyes, recalling the previous battle.

Analyze every detail in combat, even if there is no improvement in strength, after gaining a certain amount of combat experience off-road, you still feel that you have become much stronger.

However, just when Cross-Country realized his progress, crossed several puddles ahead, and was about to rush back to see what Kakashi and the others were facing, suddenly Cross-Country sneered, and his hands quickly knitted together. Printed together!

“I’m just a kid, you people in Mist Ninja Village are really careful!”

"If I guess correctly, is the chuunin just now your captain?"

"Since your captain died in my hands, what can you three mere genin do?"

“Die to me!”

“Shadow Suture!”

“Whoosh!”

“Whoosh!”

“Whoosh!”

The moment he formed the seal with his hands, a black shadow spread out from under the cross country's feet, clearly pointing in the direction of the three puddles behind him.

And when Cross Country snorted coldly, the fog ninja genin hiding in the puddle obviously realized that something was wrong.

However, if these three fog ninjas were chunin-level ninjas, then they might still be able to evade the cross-country Shadow Sewing Technique.

With Cross Country seeing through their plan early, how could a ninja who was only a genin level evade under Cross Country's quick seal?

So, before the three Mist ninja genin could react, the shadow under Cross Country's feet connected with the shadows of the three Mist ninja genin behind him. The shadow suture technique was used to directly imprison the three people's actions. In order to avoid unnecessary complications, Jiujiang, who had never mastered the interrogation skills, did not even mean to ask questions, so he directly changed the sealing method!

“Shadow Neck Binding Technique!”

“Click!”

“Click!”

“Click!”

The palms formed by the black shadow climbed up, and Cross Country used the Shadow Neck Binding Technique. The necks of the three Mist ninjas were instantly broken, and they died miserably in front of Cross Country.

Then, while using the Shadow Hand to search the ninja tool bags of several Mist Ninjas, Cross Country found a strange scroll in the Mist Ninja Chunin's ninja tool bag. He quickly controlled the Shadow Hand and took the scroll. Put it in an empty ninja tool bag.

But in the next second, when he looked at the corpses of the four fog ninjas around him, Cross Country didn't even have time to clean up the battlefield, and quickly ran in the direction of Kakashi and others!

"Even to deal with me, a little brat, the Kiri ninja has to send a ninja team. So what kind of ambush will Kakashi and the others face?"

“Damn it!”

“It seems like these fog ninjas knew our information when we just left the village!”

“Kakashi also said he wanted to annihilate a group of bandits? What kind of bandits are these? They are simply spies that the Mist Ninja infiltrated into the Land of Fire!”

Huttered secretly, chakra burst out from under his feet while off-roading, and he sped up again.

Moreover, as Cross Country rushed towards Kakashi and the others' location, the conspiracy hidden behind the ambush of the Mist Ninja gradually revealed the truth through Cross Country's reasoning!

The protection of the Fire Nation's borders is undeniably strong.

Especially during the Ninja War, if the ninjas of Konoha Village cannot even guard the border of the Land of Fire, can Konoha Village still win three wars?

Now, not only a group of Mist ninjas have sneaked into the Kingdom of Fire, but they are lurking within a dozen miles around Konoha Village. That must be a very strange thing in the heavily guarded Land of Fire. Therefore, Cross Country, who judged something strange, quickly deduced that there must be a spy inside Konoha Village, or a traitor who was in contact with the Mist Ninja.

Otherwise, how could the Mist Ninja's ambush come so quickly?

The layout was so successful?

And when he went off-road to gain insight into the secret behind the Mist Ninja's ambush, he had to face two choices!

The first one is to return to Konoha Village as soon as possible and report this matter to the Fourth Hokage.

This option is undoubtedly safer, at least for off-road use.

Unfortunately, this safe choice only flashed in the mind of off-roaders.

Because Cross Country knows that if he chooses to return to Konoha Village, Kakashi, Akai and others will face a life and death crisis!

As I said just now, the Mist Ninja sent out a ninja team in order to deal with the little devil off-road. So when dealing with other people, especially Kakashi, who is a jounin, the Mist Ninja will most likely send a jounin team, or a team several times stronger than Kakashi and others, in order to quickly kill them. Kill Kakashi and others!

Perhaps, the relationship between cross-country and Kakashi is not very good.

But in that team, there was also Akai who had helped with the cross-country, and there were also people who were familiar with each other, such as Iwashi and Genma Shiranui. Not for Kakashi, but for the people who were familiar with him and the people with whom he was bound. While taking a deep breath, Cross Country was determined to arrive as quickly as possible before the mist ninja killed them. The battlefield where Kakashi and others are.

But when he arrived at the battlefield where Kakashi and others were, Cross Country never expected that the situation faced by Kakashi and others would be so miserable!

Hidden in the woods nearby, when they arrived at the battlefield off-road, and secretly glanced in the direction of Kakashi and others, they discovered that there was no one in the ANBU team led by Kakashi except Kakashi. Now has combat capability!

“Kakashi, what happened to you?”

“If no one else said anything, why did Akai fall down!”
