Chapter 35: Pursuit

In a cave in the Land of Hot Springs, Liu Yu and others took the captured Mist Village Senior Ninja to stay temporarily. 咒盈 )

Yamanaka Inichi put his hand on the head of the Mist Village Senior Ninja who was tied up like a dumpling with grass leaves. Inichi closed his eyes and looked serious. Liu Yu knew that he was performing the secret technique of the Yamanaka clan, "Ninjutsu·Mind Reading Technique", which can directly read the other party's thoughts without using any device.

Ninjutsu·Mind Reading Technique is an extremely convenient torture secret technique. It was with this unique skill that Yamanaka Inichi wrote his legend in the intelligence community.

Slowly, Yamanaka Inichi frowned, and Liu Yu and the other three people beside him looked at Inichi's frown and felt a little bad.

"Trouble!" Finally, Inichi opened his eyes and exited the state of mind reading. But the first sentence after opening his eyes made Liu Yu and others feel a little bad. Trouble? What aspect does it refer to?

Ignoring the doubts of several people, Haiyi took out a blank scroll and a pen, and began to write on the scroll using secret words. After writing, he also sealed the scroll with a seal.

"Yuhi Kurenai, Kusa Chi Liuyu. Now I order you two to send this confidential document back to the camp as quickly as possible. Remember, you must hand it over to Lord Orochimaru in person." Yamanaka Haiyi said solemnly. This was the first time that Liuyu and Hong saw Haiyi so serious.

"Yes, I promise to complete the task." Liuyu took the scroll and replied at the same time with Hong. Liuyu did not ask about the content of the secret letter. She knew that these were not what she should care about in her current position. She only needed to complete her duties.

"Then what will you do next, Haiyi teacher and Asuma?" Hong asked curiously.

"Asuma and I will take the opportunity to attack and kill the patrol team of Kirigakure and harass the enemy. At the same time, verify some of my guesses." Haiyi replied, but when he talked about some of his guesses, a trace of seriousness flashed across his face again.

"Hong, don't worry! In this war, I will definitely make a name for myself, just like the three ninjas. In the future, when people from other villages are on a mission, they will be scared to give up the mission as soon as they see me." Asuma didn't care about Yamanaka Kaiichi's solemnity, but YY said on the side. Liu Yu overlapped Asuma and Uchiha Obito at this moment.

Under his feet, the trees kept passing by, and Liu Yu and Hong were rushing back to the Konoha camp at a high speed.

Kaiichi's serious expression kept lingering in front of Liu Yu, as if foreshadowing something bad would happen. Shaking his head, Liu Yu suppressed the irritability in his heart, stopped, and calmed down to expand the perception range of the hidden escape again.

The perception ability of the hidden escape can reach the maximum range when the user is still and focused. Although the surrounding situation can also be perceived while moving, the accuracy and range will be greatly reduced. Therefore, every time Liu Yu walks a certain distance, he will stop and carefully perceive the surrounding situation.

Liu Yu frowned. In her expanded perception, she could sense eight strange chakras behind her, heading in their direction.

"Hong, let's change direction." Liu Yu said to Hong. At present, we don't know whether the person behind us is a friend or foe, but the probability of being an enemy should be higher, so at this time, we should change the route and take insurance measures.

"Yeah!" Hong had no objection. At this time, we should trust Liu Yu's perception ability. The two began to change the route and prepare to take a long detour back to the camp.

"Stop!" Following the order of the person in the lead.

With a few swishes, seven Kirigakure ninjas stopped around the leader and subconsciously guarded the surroundings. They followed orders and it was obvious that this was an elite small force of Kirigakure.

The leader was wearing a Kirigakure Jounin vest uniform, with an indifferent face, and ornaments similar to talismans hanging on his ears. Only one left eye was exposed, and the right eye was covered by a black eye mask. If Liu Yu was here, he would definitely recognize who this person was. He is the elite jonin of Kirigakure who accompanied the Mizukage to the Five Kage Conference and served as the captain of the perception unit during the Fourth Ninja World War—'Ao'.

"Baiyan!" Ao made a seal with one hand, and the veins around his right eye bulged. His sight went beyond the present and extended to the distance. Ao stood on the tree, looking at the direction where Liu Yu and Hong were going, and murmured: "I was discovered."

"Huh!" Ao sneered twice.

"But can you run away?" Ao waved his hand to signal his subordinates to follow, and then changed direction to chase Liu Yu and the others.

"It's troublesome!" Liu Yu also said the words that Yamanaka Inoichi had said not long ago. After she and Hong changed direction and continued to walk for a while, Liu Yu stopped again to perceive. But she found that the group of people she had discovered before had followed her. It seems that they were targeting her. It's an enemy, not a friend. This is troublesome!

Liu Yu is now in a dilemma. Judging from the speed comparison between the two sides, it is estimated that she and Hong will be caught up by the opponent before they reach the Konoha camp, which means that running away blindly will not work.

Liu Yu's hard power at the moment should be above the Chunin, but not the Jonin. According to the strength of Konoha's ninjas, she can be classified as a special Jonin. With her own bloodline bonus, three or two ordinary Chunins are not Liu Yu's opponents, just like the two Iwagakure ninjas she defeated in Kusagakure Village last time. But facing ordinary Jonins is more troublesome, but with the bloodline bonus, Liu Yu is confident that she can kill the opponent at a small price in a one-on-one situation.

The last time I killed an unknown number of Kusagakure and Iwagakure ninjas in Kusagakure Village, it was a miracle that I relied on my desperate overdrawn body fighting style and the enemy's lack of understanding of Bamboo Release. But it is very difficult to replicate this miracle again in a head-on confrontation.

Analyzing the composition of the enemy's pursuit personnel, there must be at least 2 jonin among the 8 people. In other words, the chances of winning by staying and fighting head-on are very small, and Hong is simply a burden to Liu Yu at the moment.

Liu Yu is in a dilemma at the moment. If she is alone, Liu Yu is confident that she can escape the opponent's perception by hiding in the surrounding woods. As long as the opponent is not a ninja with a Byakugan, Liu Yu has a nearly ten-fold confidence in escaping successfully. Even if the opponent has Qing with a Byakugan installed, Liu Yu is not too worried. In the state of hiding, her Byakugan must be used by a powerful person and can only be detected within a certain range. And now Qing of Kirigakure has only obtained the Byakugan not long ago, so there is no need to worry too much. I can use the invisibility technique to hide in the woods. Although the speed of movement will be greatly reduced, as long as I can escape successfully, it will be fine.

But now Hong is also with me. Liu Yu has the means to escape, but it does not mean that Hong can also escape. If the two escape separately, the Mist Ninjas who find that they have lost their target will definitely put the target of pursuit on Hong. When Hong dies, it is possible that the blackened Asuma will appear.

What should I do? Myself? Or Hong?

Liu Yu does not know how to choose. After experiencing the departure of her father and others, Liu Yu cherishes the ties around her even more. Although she has always put revenge first in her heart, she is also unwilling to become a person dominated by hatred. Whether in the past life or this life, Liu Yu is a person who values ​​feelings.

At this time, Liu Yu thought of what she once said when she talked about her dream with her father: "Become a powerful ninja, I can protect the people I care about and the people who care about me." But is Hong the person she cares about? Liu Yu does not know.

People will encounter many choices in their lives, some are willing, some are involuntarily, some are helpless, and some are unwilling to recall. This time, Liu Yu's choice will affect her life.

After thinking about it, Liu Yu finally made a decision.

"Hong, we" Before Liu Yu finished speaking,

"They are a group of kind children like you!" This sentence suddenly echoed in Liu Yu's heart, and followed by Kushina's gentle face.

"Kind?"

"What's wrong? Liu Yu, what happened?" Hong on the side felt that Liu Yu was a little abnormal at the moment.

Taking a deep breath and stabilizing his mind, Liu Yu spoke again: "Hong, we are being targeted. It is estimated that there are also perceptive ninjas on the other side. It seems that we can't escape safely. Now I will give you the scroll. You take the scroll and run away quickly. I will stay to stop the other side to buy time for you to escape." After speaking, Liu Yu took out the scroll and threw it to Hong.

Hong was obviously a little confused. After she took the scroll thrown by Liu Yu, she realized what was going on. "But Liu Yu, you..." Hong didn't know what to say.

"It's okay. There are not many people on the other side. I can handle it. Even if I can't beat them, I can still escape by hiding, so don't worry about me. If you are really worried about me, go back to the camp and find reinforcements to pick me up!" Liu Yu didn't know why she changed her mind. She had only known Hong for a few months, but now she actually offered to help Hong block the pursuers.

"But" Hong wanted to say something.

"No buts, this is the best way at the moment. Only in this way can both of them survive." Liu Yu's voice rose by two points and became serious.

"If you are worried about me, just like I said just now, go back to the camp and find reinforcements." Liu Yu's words became two points softer.

"Well! I know, I will definitely come back." Looking at Liu Yu's firm face, Hong assured her. Hong knew that it was impossible to convince Liu Yu now, and this was indeed the best way for both of them to survive.

Looking at Hong's receding back, Liu Yu smiled bitterly: "Okay, it's time to get busy now."

Since he had decided to buy time for Hong, he couldn't keep hiding through the invisibility technique, and he had to fight the chasing Kirigakure ninjas.

Liu Yu used the invisibility technique to shuttle between the trees, moved closer to the Kirigakure ninjas, and began to set traps. The place where he had just separated from Hong by using the invisibility technique would definitely be noticed by the sensing ninjas on the opposite side, and the Kirigakure ninjas would definitely be more vigilant when approaching that area. Therefore, the traps had to be arranged a little earlier to prevent them from being ineffective.

Liu Yu expected that the traps could kill the Kirigakure sensing ninjas on the opposite side in one wave, so that he wouldn't have to worry about them tracking him again, and he could use the invisibility technique to leave directly. However, as the Kirigakure ninjas got closer and closer, Liu Yu began to feel uneasy. This feeling
