Chapter 447 Dilemma on the battlefield

Hirihu is just an ordinary Konoha jounin. He does not hold an important position and does not have the reputation of Orochimaru and the others, so his defection did not bring any trouble to Konoha.

Since it was during the war, Konoha didn't even bother to send a jounin team to pursue it. It just sent people to check symbolically. If nothing was found, forget it.

In terms of the entire size of Konoha, Beiruhu's defection is like a twig breaking off a towering tree, and it has little effect on the overall situation.

But even a twig on a towering tree has branches and leaves connected to it, which is not a trivial matter for friends of Beilihu.

Orochimaru doesn’t have many friends, but that’s not because he can’t make friends, but because most people are not qualified to be Orochimaru’s friends.

Beruhu is one of the few friends of Orochimaru.

They are students in the first batch and have been friends since they were in school.

Although Orochimaru and the others later became the legendary Sannin, while Beiruhu was just an ordinary jounin, none of Orochimaru and the other three cared about this, and still maintained their previous relationship with Beiruhu.

However, according to the information collected from Beiliuhu's laboratory, although they do not care about Beiliuhu's strength, Beiliuhu is very concerned about his own strength.

“Too reckless.” Orochimaru put down the information in his hand and shook his head slightly.

“Beilihu.” Orochimaru replied.

His human experiments were carried out with Danzo helping to cover them up. If Beilihu dared to do this alone, it would be a matter of time before he was exposed.

If Mu Yue is very resistant to human experiments, then Orochimaru must be more careful when using Mu Yue, and not let Mu Yue know about his secret research on Hashirama cells.

Although Konoha has the word village, it is not a real rural village. Konoha is essentially a military base.

If Mu Yue is not interested but does not reject it, then Orochimaru can safely show some secrets to Mu Yue and let Mu Yue become his confidant.

"Actually, he is my friend. We are ninjas from the same period. I did not expect that he was secretly arresting innocent people from the surrounding villages for human experiments." Orochimaru sighed slightly, as if he was feeling sorry for losing a friend. Melancholy, and then noticed Mu Yue's expression with his peripheral vision.

"Mu Yuejun knows him?" Orochimaru was a little surprised.

“I’m not very familiar with him, I’m just an examiner who did the chunin exam together. Senior Beiliuhu looks very quiet, like a law-abiding person. I didn’t expect that he would defect.” Mu Yue explained.

Orochimaru had a look of regret on his face. Beiruhu seemed to have a pretty good level of research. If he could join him in cooperating with Danzo, he would definitely not be in his current situation.

Having read the script, he knew why Beiruhu defected. Like Orochimaru in the future, he was conducting human experiments. However, Orochimaru was a little more serious than Beiruhu, and he also illegally studied Hashirama cells and so on.

When they were inspecting the work of various troops in the camp as the troop commander, Orochimaru suddenly said: "Muzuki-kun, do you know that a jonin in Konoha recently defected."

But now that Beiruhu has defected, Orochimaru will not carry out meaningless memorials. He has a lot to do now.

Orochimaru was able to obtain the information. On the one hand, Sarutobi Hiruzen knew about the relationship between Orochimaru and Beilihu. On the other hand, Danzo felt that Beilihu's research might be useful to Orochimaru, so he told the whole incident and Beilihu. The information left behind by Ruhu was given to Orochimaru.

“It’s actually Senior Beiliuhu, I really can’t tell.” Mu Yue made a surprised expression.

He wanted to know Mu Yue’s true attitude towards human experiments, which was of great significance to Orochimaru.

After talking about this, Mu Yue probably guessed a little bit of Orochimaru's purpose.

He did not receive relevant news, but Mu Yue felt that he was just an ordinary jounin, and what he did did not affect the interests of Konoha too much, otherwise it should have spread long ago.

If Mu Yue is interested in human experiments, then Orochimaru can completely pull Mu Yue into his chariot and tie him to death, forming a mutually beneficial relationship between him and Danzo.

“I’m not sure, who is it?” Mu Yue shook her head and replied.

Orochimaru played the final role of his former friend in testing Muyue's attitude towards human experiments.

Orochimaru's answer to Muyue was not surprising. Although Beiruhu was not an important figure, defecting was not a good thing after all, and Konoha would not publicize it with great fanfare.

“This is very excessive and extreme, actually arresting innocent people for human experiments.” Mu Yue said bluntly.

 Mu Yue does not hate all human experiments, because some research does require human experiments, but when it comes to innocent people, Mu Yue can only say that they will die.

Orochimaru savored Mu Yue's words carefully and then said: "Beiliuhu is indeed a bit extreme. For some ninjutsu, human experimentation is a necessary process. The village has also organized human experiments, but the candidates are usually death row prisoners. With volunteers, arresting innocent villagers is really inappropriate."

Mu Yue nodded with a look of approval.

Upon seeing this, Orochimaru probably understood Mu Yue’s views on human experimentation. He was not completely opposed to it but could not harm innocent people.

"Mu Yue-kun still has too little experience. I hope that the next war will make him understand the fragility of life." Orochimaru believes that Mu Yue still has room for improvement.

After all, people always change, and Orochimaru now is very different from Orochimaru ten years ago.

“Mozuki, your disciple named Uchiha Shisui has been very active on the battlefield recently, putting some jounin to shame.” Orochimaru turned the topic to Muyue’s disciples.

Mu Yue is a smart person, so there is a limit to testing him. Talking too much will make Mu Yue have undue suspicions.

“Shisui, he worked too hard.” Mu Yue praised with a smile.



“The reputation of our team is really growing. Last time we were recognized by the enemy before we even fought. If we continue, we may hope to become a famous ninja.” Toru Shangshan said with excitement.

"Why do you start dreaming in broad daylight? Isn't the famous one Shisui? What does it have to do with you?" Kobayashi Kenji couldn't help complaining.

 Shisui, as an eight-year-old chuunin, killed the Kirigakure Jonin several times and was already the most famous Konoha genius on the Kirigakure battlefield.

Originally, Metkai was the undisputed strongest genius, but Metkai and the others returned to Konoha to train, so they didn’t care about it for the time being.

"Shisui is also from our team, it's the same." Toru Shangshan put his hand on Shisui's shoulder and smiled like a good friend.

“You say so, Shisui.”

Zhi Shui nodded. Although he will not stay in this team forever, he is undoubtedly one of the members of this team now.

“Be quiet next, we are almost at the mission location. Although Shisui is here, don’t underestimate the A-level war mission.” Takagi Shinji reminded.

As soon as the instruction jounin spoke, Kamishiro Tetsu and the others instantly fell silent. Having been on the battlefield for a short time, they knew the cruelty and danger of war.

Not only Kirigakure was injured, Konoha also suffered casualties, but it was less than Kirigakure.

Shisui silently opened his Sharingan and began to observe his surroundings. No one in their team has the means of perception, and the most effective means of observation is Shisui's three-magatama Sharingan.

As the distance got closer, Shisui discovered the hidden enemy.

Finding that his enemy Shisui didn't show much movement, he quietly made a few gestures with a normal expression.

Toru Kamishiro and others immediately became alert when they saw Shisui's gesture. This was a signal that there was an enemy.

Hush!

When they got close to a certain distance, Shisui and the other five immediately threw their shurikens in several directions.

Some Kirigakure were caught off guard and were scratched by shurikens.

The injured Kirigakure immediately stepped away and distanced themselves.

Just as Toru Shangshan was preparing to pursue, several streams of water shot from a little further away.

Whoosh!

Shisui, who has quick eyesight and quick hands, used the teleportation technique to avoid the water escape attack with his shirt on.

“I caught a big fish, it’s Uchiha Shisui who opened the Three Magatama Sharingan at the age of eight.” Eight Kirigakure hiding in the village came out.

"You have the strength to kill a jounin at the age of eight. You are so genius that it is unreasonable. But your ninja career ends here." One of the Kirigakure jounin with a bandage on his face said coldly while holding a long sword. .

The information they had here was deliberately exposed in order to attract the weak Konoha team to kill them.

Although if you are unlucky, you may encounter a powerful Konoha team, but there is no absolute safety on the battlefield. If you encounter a strong person like Mu Yue, you can only consider yourself unlucky.

"There are three strong chakras..." Shisui's Sharingan quickly swept across all the Kirigakure ninjas, and then frowned slightly.

If his judgment was correct, there should be three jounin and nine genin on the field.

 Shisui was confident of dealing with the two Kirigakure Jonin. The Jonin he encountered this time was not as powerful as the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, but a relatively ordinary Jonin.

But the rest of the team may not be able to deal with one jounin and nine genin.

"It's a trap, retreat quickly!" Takagi Shinci's face became very ugly.

He didn’t have the Sharingan and couldn’t tell the strength of the Kirigakure, but this number of Kirigakure obviously shouldn’t be an A-level mission, unless most of the twelve Kirigakure were genin and there wasn’t even a jounin.

But there is only one possibility for a ninja team to have this configuration, and that is the commander has cerebral palsy, and Takagi Shinji does not think that Goju Yagura has cerebral palsy.

“The Art of Kirigakure!”

The three Kirigakure jounin jointly performed the Kirigakure technique, and an extremely thick white mist quickly enveloped the area. Takagi Shinji and the others could not even tell their direction, let alone retreat.

Due to the mist created by chakra, Shisui's Sharingan couldn't even see through the enemies hidden in it.

"Everyone, don't panic, pay attention to your surroundings, and deal with the enemy calmly." Shisui said quickly.

Although the enemy is strong and we are weak, as long as the ninja is not as strong as Muyue, there is no absolute strength or weakness. In particular, a jounin may not lose to a jounin, and a chunin also has a chance to kill a jounin.

If you panic, it will be different. If you meet on a narrow road, the brave will win, and the one who panics first will already be at a disadvantage.

"Shisui is right, don't panic." Takagi Shinci saw that he could not retreat for the time being and continued.

With the double comfort of the instructor and thighs, and because Toru Kamishiro and the others were also experienced chuunin, they quickly calmed down and observed their surroundings in preparation for the battle.

“Heart, head, thighs, arms, guess which part will be attacked first.”

 Kirigakure’s cruel sneer penetrated the thick fog and reached Shisui’s ears.

This is not a pre-battle euphoria, but a psychological warfare of killing people in the fog that Kirigakure must practice.

 Vision is a very important existence for human beings. Many things are scary because of the unknown. Once they are visible and tangible, they become less scary. On the contrary, sudden loss of vision makes it extremely easy to fall into uneasy emotions.

 Cruel words can effectively stimulate the already unstable emotions, causing them to panic and expose their flaws.

咻!

Two kunai wrapped in flames were shot in the direction of the speaking Kirigakure.

“Hey, I actually discovered it.” After speaking, the Kirigakure jounin quickly dodged away and was a little surprised.

There is also a skill to speaking to intimidate someone in dense fog. It stands to reason that people who have not experienced special training should not be able to judge his location directly from his voice.

Shisui closed his Sharingan and attacked Kirigakure Jonin with his eyes closed.

In order to prevent this situation from happening, Mu Yue conducted special training for him, directly giving up vision in the thick fog with low visibility to enhance other perceptions.

At first, Shisui was not used to it because the insight provided by the Sharingan was too strong, but after getting familiar with it, Shisui was basically able to exert his full strength in the fog, but the illusion was a bit inconvenient to cast.

At first, the Kirigakure jounin thought it was a coincidence, but Shisui's subsequent close-range attack made him know that the most dazzling genius on the battlefield in front of him was not in vain.

“This time your teammates are not Metkai and Kakashi.” The Kirigakure jounin who was at a disadvantage did not panic.

It is true that he can't beat Shisui, even in the fog, but after his teammates finish killing Shisui's teammates, Shisui can still beat twelve Kirigakure of them by himself.

唰!

The sound of the sharp blade cutting through clothes and piercing flesh was heard, and then Shisui heard Kenji Kobayashi's hissing breath.

“Breath of Fire, all concentrated!”

 Shisui could only use his breathing to the extreme to temporarily repel the Kirigakure Jonin in front of him, and then ducked towards Kenji Kobayashi to rescue him.

Although he was stronger than Kirigakure Jōnin, it was not that easy to kill a Kirigakure Jōnin. By the time he killed the enemy, Kobayashi Kenji's body was already cold.

If it were Obito or Kakashi, it would be possible to kill a Kirigakure jonin instantly with an unexpected burst, but Shisui really couldn't do it, because his explosive ability is the worst among Mugetsu's disciples except Nohara Rin.

 Obito has the Flame Breathing Chakra Mode, Kakashi has the Transparent World, and Metkai has the Eight Gates Armor. They all have super explosive skills that Shisui has not been able to master.

 Shisui relied on his precise perception and ghostly teleportation technique to successfully rescue Kenji Kobayashi, but Shisui, who was aware of the state of other teammates, still felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.

He can beat two Kirigakure jounin, but the Kirigakures who know his fighting power are not that stupid. Wouldn't it be better to kill all the other teammates first and then attack them, why bother to stare at the genius first.
