Chapter 11 Four years later, the conflict revived (Ch 11)

Northeast of the Fire Country.
In the dense primeval forest, a hundred-meter-high ancient tree stands tall among the rocks.
The ridiculously developed root system binds the rocks below together, revealing a huge, dark cave inside.
Several ninjas wearing Kumogakure forehead protectors were rushing towards here at this moment.
“Bi, remember to leave a few people alive on this mission.”
“Ok, brother!” Kirabi raised his hand and adjusted the sunglasses on his nose.
The 12-year-old Killer Bee has now become the Eight-Tails’ Jinchūriki, and is even the first ninja in the history of the Hidden Cloud Village to have such strong control over the power of the tailed beasts.
According to speculation, as long as Killer Bee grows up step by step until he is 18 years old, or even faster at 16 years old, he will be able to achieve transformation into a tailed beast and become a perfect jinchūriki.
He is similar to the Fourth Hokage of Konoha, Uchiha Harumitsu.
The second perfect Jinchūriki in the ninja world.
Seeing Kirabi looking so relaxed, Ai felt proud of his brother from the bottom of his heart.
Over the past few years, he has witnessed Killer Bee’s growth. Now, even when facing a senior ninja, he can defeat the enemy with the help of the Eight-Tails’ chakra.
His talent is even better than his.
The purpose of this mission is to plunder the bloodline of a family called Ibri on the border of the Fire Nation. This family possesses an extremely special bloodline that can turn the body into atomization and make it immune to all attacks.
But unfortunately, they seemed unable to control this ability, and many of their tribesmen turned into smoke and disappeared.
If Yunyin can obtain such a bloodline and find a way to make up for this shortcoming, it will be a great help!
Behind the Hidden Cloud Ninja Team, Sackboy closed his eyes, formed seals with his hands and released perception ninjutsu.
Her healthy wheat-colored skin is smooth and delicate, her short gray hair is neat and tidy, her facial features give people a soft and delicate beauty, and her curvy figure is like a ripe peach wrapped in the red and white vest of the Hidden Cloud Village.
Suddenly, she opened her eyes sharply, a gleam of light flashed in her blue-green eyes, and the corners of her mouth rose.
“Ai, just below the huge ancient tree in front, there is a cave tunnel at the root of the tree, and the target is inside.”
Do you think the cave can be hidden by blocking other people’s vision with fog outside?
This underestimates her perception ability.
Ai showed a grim smile on his face: “Understood.”
“Sackcloth, Troy, the two of you go and cast a barrier around them to prevent these guys from escaping.”
Although he was confident, the matter was of great importance. This was an order given personally by his father, the Sandaime Raikage. Echo did not want to disappoint his father, nor did he want to embarrass himself in front of Killer Bee.
It has to be done to be absolutely sure.
“yes.”
Ma Buyi and Troy immediately scattered around.
On the other side, Ai and his group were heading in the opposite direction.
There was also a team of four heading towards the ancient tree in front.
The figure with long bright red hair suddenly raised her head. She sensed subtle changes in the surrounding environment and immediately activated perception ninjutsu.
“Minato, someone is setting up a barrier!” Kushina exclaimed.
Four years later, Kushina was already the first batch of students to graduate from the Ninja Academy.
Now he has become a top ninja who specializes in perception ninjutsu and sealing techniques.
Minato was already an all-round hexagonal ninja who knew everything except medical ninjutsu. One year after entering school, at the age of 13, he became the youngest jonin in the history of Konoha, even faster than Harumi back then.
“Have the ninjas from Kumogakure arrived?” Minato said calmly, not panicking at all: “Kushina, take Nono to find the ninja who released the barrier. Decide whether to take action based on the situation. I’ll leave the barrier to Nono.”
Claw is also a special jonin and one of Kushina’s roommates.
As for Nono, although he has never attended a ninja school, he passed the Genin exam on his own and enrolled in the Ninja Academy. Now he is 14 years old and is an eighth-grade student in the Ninja Academy. He is good at medical techniques and barrier techniques, and is a Chunin.
Due to their physical characteristics, the Ibri clan is not suitable for living in crowded places. Although they have not joined Konoha, they maintain friendly relations with Konoha.
A few days ago, a message for help was sent to Konoha, saying that there were traces of Kumogakure ninjas appearing around.
Haruki specially dispatched Minato’s luxuriously equipped elite team to handle the matter.
They even granted special permission, stating that if the Ibri clan were willing, they could be brought back to Konoha. The village would set aside a separate area for them to live in the surrounding suburbs, and would find a way to solve their bloodline disease problem.
“Yes, Captain.”
“Kuromaru.” Inuzuka Tsumegang shouted.
Hei Wan jumped up from the ground below.
“Ah!” Nono screamed, and his whole body was lifted up and almost flew.
In panic, she hugged Heiwan’s neck tightly with both hands: “Zhua, next time please tell me in advance.” Nono’s snow-white and clean little hands patted her slightly raised chest.
Even though it has happened many times, I still get scared every time.
She is a medical ninja, and her physical fitness is far less strong than that of ninjas who specialize in physical techniques such as claws.
Unless she learns super strength, but super strength is not so easy to cultivate, and she is still working hard.
“I can’t help it. It’s because you run so slowly. I have to let Hei Wan help you.”
“Don’t be disgusted. Heimaru never lets anyone else ride him except me.” Inuzuka Tsumugi said.
“That’s right.” Heimaru agreed.
Heimaru is the offspring of two large ninja dogs, Kurofu and Shiraishi. The hair on his back is shiny black, and the hair on his limbs and abdomen is snow-white. Like Kurofu, he can speak some human language.
It’s just that he can’t say many words now, but he has no problem communicating with humans in simple language.
Kushina pointed her finger in the direction she sensed.
Inuzuka Tsumugi, Nono, and Kuromaru, the two men and the dog, immediately set off forward.
“Kushina, give me your hand.” Minato turned his head and looked at Kushina. In his other hand, he had already grasped a specially made three-pronged kunai with words made up of curse numbers on the handle.
The sword of love.
“Yeah.” Kushina tapped Minato’s palm with her fingertips.
Minato held it with his backhand.
Chakra condensed in the body, and he threw the Flying Thunder God Kunai diagonally upward into the sky with force.
whoosh!
The kunai cut through the air and passed through the branches of the dense forest.
“Flying Thunder God Technique!”
The two figures disappeared in an instant, and the next second, they appeared above the dense forest. The Flying Hunting Kunai in the air was also held by Minato.
Throw forward again, and repeat, using the tree crown as a landing point.
At this moment, Minato could cross a hundred meters in one second, covering a distance of several kilometers, and during this time he did not forget to leave the Flying Thunder God Mark around.
Kushina, on the other hand, kept her eyes closed, not worrying about any danger at all.
At first, she was not used to Flying Thunder God’s teleportation and felt dizzy, but two years later, she had already adapted to it, and she and Minato had a perfect understanding of each other.
“At one o’clock, around 1,200 meters, there are two extremely large chakra reactions, no less powerful than you and me.”
“careful.”
Minato looked at the old tree in front of him, which happened to be located at one o’clock. His eyes became sharp and his whole aura changed instantly.
Transformed into a sharp blade.
Combining all the information, it must be a ninja from the Hidden Cloud Village.
Since the establishment of the Ninja Academy and Chakra Academy four years ago, the Hidden Cloud Village has begun to plunder bloodline ninjas and secret techniques from all over the Ninja world on a large scale.
The Iwagakure Village and the Sand Village also began an arms race with Konoha, causing a lot of trouble.
I’m afraid the war will start again soon.
Anger welled up inside Minato, but his expression remained calm.
He held Kushina’s hand, and inadvertently used a little more force.
…
The moment someone broke into the fog, Wu Tai, the chief of the Ibri tribe, instantly sensed the fact that someone had invaded.
The fog around the cave entrance is made up of the tribesmen who lost control of their bloodline limit and turned into smoke and died. Any tribesman who has relatively strong control over his own atomization ability can sense it.
“Chief!” Several tribesmen immediately came to Wu Tai with anxious looks.
Wu Tai’s expression was stern: “You guys, take the children, women, and the elderly and retreat from the secret passage at the back first. I and the others will stay behind to buy time.”
He had already sensed that the other party had directly broken through the obstruction of the fog, which showed that his strength was extraordinary and he must be prepared to fight to the death.
At this point, there is no point in being sentimental and it will only waste time. Although these tribesmen know what Wu Tai is thinking, they are powerless to change it.
“Yes, Patriarch!”
Witnessing their departure, Wu Tai clenched his kunai and looked up at the caves above: “Everyone, please.”
Wisps of smoke of various colors floated out of the cave entrance and condensed into a human shape behind him.
Together they rushed into the tunnel ahead.
“Bi, they are coming.” The Eight-Tails conveyed a message to Killer Bee through consciousness.
“Here, Ani.” Kirabi reminded.
Dazzling blue arcs immediately burst out from Ai’s body: “One cough, compare!”
Whoosh whoosh!
The oncoming waves of shurikens were intercepted by Kirabi with two medium-long blades. The whole person took strange steps like dancing and spun at high speed.
In the dim light, Kirabi felt several special chakras circling around his body and surrounding him.
“……?”
The smoke condensed and turned into a solid entity in an instant, and four ninjas from the Ibri clan stabbed at him with kunai!
In mid-air, Kirabi found it difficult to change his movements, but he did not feel panicked at all.
A thick octopus tentacle stretched out from his lower back and slammed into the ground. The powerful force made him fly high into the air, with his feet sticking to the rock wall above the tunnel.
“brother!”
The next second, a blue flash rushed forward violently in the darkness.
Ai opened his arms and hugged the four people tightly at the moment when they attacked Kirabi’s materialization!
The lightning-attribute chakra paralyzed the bodies of the four people, making them unable to continue to atomize and smashing hard to the ground!
“Thunder Duck Neck!”
boom!!!
The bodies of the four people were thrown to the ground, leaving a deep pit, which then dissipated as smoke.
“After death, just disappear like smoke?” Ai felt it was a pity and said with regret.
In this case, the dead body is not even worth studying.
It seems that we have to leave as many people alive as possible.
We cannot just leave children and women alive, we also have to capture a few strong men for human experiments and collect data.
“Asshole!” Wu Tai shouted angrily.
As the patriarch, he felt heartbroken watching his tribesmen die.
“Die!” Ai punched forward heavily.
But suddenly he felt his fist miss and the figure in front of him disappeared instantly.
Wu Tai regrouped behind him and stabbed Ai in the back of his heart with his kunai.
At this moment, Kirabi above aimed at Wutai, kicked his feet, and chopped down with two swords in his hands.
Wu Tai was forced to mist again and had to give up this attack opportunity.
“Ani, be careful of this guy.” Kirabi perked up for once and stopped looking so cheerful.
The guy in front of me is very skilled in using the atomization ability. It is not easy to hurt him.
Ai just grinned and said, “Bi, stop him.”
“I just don’t believe that other people can use the atomization ability so skillfully.”
“Thunderbolt hot knife!”
Rushing forward, with knife strikes, elbow strikes, and stomps, Ai slaughtered the Ibri ninjas that stood in his way one after another.
Every time Wu Tai tried to go around and attack Ai, he would be interrupted by Kirabi at the moment of materialization.
“Sorry, big brother said he can’t let you go.”
Until only a few ninjas were left standing in front of Ai, and Ai was about to break through the last line of defense.
“Thunder and hot knife!” The fierce impact created a strong wind, and Ai planned to catch the last few people in one fell swoop.
Wu Tai’s figure suddenly appeared in front of the last few tribesmen.
“You guys go!”
He couldn’t bear to watch his brothers and sisters die one by one in front of him, leaving him alone.
The sacrifice of these compatriots is meaningless. If he comes, we can delay some more time.
Wu Tai rushed forward with two kunai in hand to meet him head on.
Click!
The two kunai were actually smashed directly by Ai’s arms, making a sound like steel colliding.
Is this guy’s body harder than steel?!
The next second, his arms were paralyzed by the fierce electric light and could not be atomized.
“Naive fool.” Ai said sarcastically.
You don’t really think he would be stupid enough to use his flesh and blood to resist the kunai, do you?
He is not his father, who can train his body to that level. Under his sleeves, there is a layer of special active chakra metal arm guard as protection. It is close to the skin and difficult to detect after he puts on the clothes.
Wu Tai’s right hand was cut off and scattered on the ground. The blood and limbs turned into smoke and dissipated in the air the next second.
The blood under his broken arm continued to dissipate like smoke.
Ai couldn’t help but brighten his eyes: “Not bad, it seems that your body has a lot of research value.”
Compared to the guy before who disappeared without even a trace of blood, the Gota in front of him has a stronger ability to control his bloodline limit, and should be able to be used for human experiments and data collection.
“Bi, leave it to you.” Ai stepped aside.
“Ok, brother!”
Kirabi’s cheeks puffed up: “Sealing Technique, the Hundred Thousand Nurmagomedons!”
A ball of black ink spurted out of his mouth. This was the sealing technique he learned from the Eight-Tails.
The ink was about to hit Wu Tai’s body.
In an instant.
With a whoosh!
A kunai stabbed in front of Wu Tai, causing him to be stunned for a moment.
The next second, two figures appeared in front of him.
Chains emitting golden light emerged from Kushina’s lower back and danced in the air.
