Chapter 71: Hero!

Chapter 71: Hero!

"Do you want to be a coward for the rest of your life or to be a hero?"

For some reason, this sentence suddenly appeared in Aoba's empty mind.

Obviously, these ninjas who knew that they could not win but still did not retreat, all chose to be heroes for this second!

Or perhaps they had already anticipated this moment when they chose to become a ninja.

To be able to die in order to protect their home was worth it!

"Run!"

Suddenly, a shout called back Aoba's lost thoughts.

Then he saw the shadow that shrouded the ground in front of him. He saw a half of the house that was falling down rapidly. He saw the old man Yamashita who was staggering and falling to the ground. He saw the calmness in his eyes facing death at this moment. He also saw that his eyes were about to split open, and he was shouting something behind him. However, he did not have the time to rush over to Konoha Ninja.

Boom!

Aoba felt as if something in his head had suddenly exploded!

When he came back to his senses, his body seemed to be moving on its own as he rushed over!

At this moment, there was only one thought in his mind.

Save someone!

And he would definitely make it in time!

With a bang, Aoba, who had stepped on the ground with all his strength, rushed forward before half of the house fell down!

'Hardening!'

'Activate all of them!'

Boom!

Another boom!

Half of the house was instantly smashed down without any resistance, and then it broke into pieces, raising a cloud of dust.

From the time Aoba stood rooted to the ground, to rushing over to save people, and then to the moment he was buried by the ruins, only a blink of an eye had passed.

The ninja who had shouted loudly to remind them to run, and witnessed the whole process, bit his lips with a painful face, and blood slowly flowed down from the corner of his mouth.

He did not expect that his subconscious shout not only failed to save the person but also lose another person's life, and it was a teenager...

Therefore, he didn't regret it!

In fact, he felt extremely relaxed in his heart!

However, he still refused the other party's good intentions because he still had more important things to do.

"Don't worry about me. Old Master Yamashita is the head of the Craftsmen Headquarters. He has made a great contribution to the village. If you continue to dawdle, Old Master will lose his legs!"

In order to make the other party realize the importance of Yamashita, Aoba had no choice but to call out Yamashita's identity and make the other party pay attention to him.

Otherwise, with so many wounded, it would be difficult for a poor old man to have limited medical resources.

This was not an alarmist talk, but a normal choice!

After hearing what Aoba said, the ninja gritted his teeth and no longer hesitated. He immediately took Yamashita and left the battlefield.

However, before he left, he gave Aoba a deep look, as if he wanted to remember him.

'A child who is at most five or six years old could not only stand up and go out to save people at a critical moment, but he had actually done it!'

'Moreover, he is clearly injured, but he was still thinking about others at all times... Which family had nurtured such a talent?'

'Damn it!'

When he left, he forgot to ask for the other person's name!

The ninja who took away Yamashita was a little upset, but for some reason, he felt that this youth seemed a little familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before and left an impression on him.

....

Although the small incident that happened on Aoba's side brought a great shock to the ninja, it was not worth mentioning in the entire Konoha!

Because Kyuubi's rampage was still going on, countless casualties were appearing at every moment!

Batches of ninjas launched suicide attacks again and again from different directions.

All kinds of ninjutsu, Kunai, explosion talismans... all of them were thrown at Kyuubi as if they were free.

However, no matter how they fought to the death and did not retreat, these attacks were unable to cause even the slightest bit of damage to Kyuubi. At most, it only made Kyuubi even more irritable!

It was like a group of flies flying around in front of their eyes, unable to kill them all, unable to scare them away, extremely irritable!

However, they did use their own lives to forcefully delay Kyuubi here, not allowing Kyuubi to spread disaster to other regions.

From this point of view, their sacrifice was not without value.
