"Don't be afraid! It's just a little kid, come on! Let's take him down together!" The one-eyed bandit who seemed to be the leader roared hysterically. They had already suffered such heavy losses today, they would probably not be able to be the boss in this circle anymore, so he lost his mind in anger.
"Humph." The Wind Clone snorted softly, scaring the bandits who were raising their weapons to smash down.
"Don't be a bunch of wimps, are you all eating soft rice? Get him!" The leader, seeing his underlings stop for no reason, was furious, he raised his ax high, and ran towards the Wind Clone.
"Deactivate." Haryu, behind them, saw that most of the bandits had surrounded the clone, so he took the initiative to deactivate the clone, releasing the jutsu contained within.
"Wind Release: Gale Eye! Ashita, Tsuki, kill them quickly!"
Bang! The boy surrounded by the bandits suddenly disappeared, before the bandits could react, a whirlwind suddenly rose, right in the middle of them, sweeping everyone in.
"Tenryū is so strong. Let's go, Ashita. Ashita?" Tsuki heard the order, and called out to Ashita to launch their combination jutsu with him, for a quick kill. But Ashita, on the other side of the road, was staring intently at the whirlwind, his mouth wide open.
"This… he has this kind of skill." Ashita thought, if he had used this jutsu during the sparring match, he and his brother would have been defeated without a doubt.
"Ashita, let's go!" Seeing Ashita's lack of reaction, Tsuki shouted. This time, Ashita finally heard, he closed his mouth, rubbed his eyes, and ran towards the whirlwind with his brother, Tsuki.
"Fire Release: Blazing Burn!"
Pshh!
A line of fire accurately cut into the storm, slowly cutting through the bandits' bodies, burning them.
"Ah, what is this! Help!"
But one lucky guy was inexplicably pulled out, he flew for a while and landed on the ground. As soon as he wanted to escape, he found a hand on his shoulder.
"You… who are you?" He didn't dare to turn around, afraid to see a more terrifying sight.
"Who I am is unimportant, you just need to tell me who was chasing you, and I'll let you go." Haryu said coldly. He had no sympathy for this kind of bandit who was greedy for life but didn't care about the lives of others. Let him go? It was naturally impossible.
"I, I, I'll tell you, I'll tell you. Thank you, kind sir, for saving my life. Just now, a group of strange people in white coats fell from the sky, and suddenly killed a few of our brothers. We wanted to avenge them, but everyone who charged in was killed. I remember they were all strange, that white coat was like something from hundreds of years ago, and their eyes were different. I can't remember clearly. Thank…"
"Alright, go to your death peacefully." Haryu's hand on his shoulder moved his thumb, the sleeve dagger came out for the first time, he gently slashed, ending the bandit's life.
"That's a wrap." Haryu muttered softly. He was still a little reluctant to kill. If it wasn't for this bandit who had committed countless crimes, he really wouldn't have been able to do it.
The whirlwind gradually subsided, and the mutilated bodies inside were revealed.
"Mission complete. Let's go back to the village." Haryu stepped forward to check, but he felt a little disgusted, so he turned around and left the bodies, giving the order.
"Yes." This time, there was no discordant voice.
…
The stronghold, above.
"Are you sure that brat was there?" A middle-aged man with Sharingan in both eyes, wearing a white robe, asked the person next to him.
"Hmm, that's right. It's that guy's stench." Beside him, a young man with Sharingan in both eyes replied.
"Indeed. They just left." Behind them, a man with Byakugan in both eyes stared at the ground for a while, then turned back and told the older one.
"Tch, bad luck. Let's go, we're going back."
…
Leaping through the dense forest, Haryu suddenly looked up at the sky, only glanced at it, then continued to rush forward.
"Tenryū, how strong are you? That Wind Release just now was A-rank, right? You have a lot of chakra." Ashita no longer looked down on Haryu, the strength he had just displayed was something they couldn't match at all. However, he didn't see how the jutsu was released.
"That jutsu wasn't released by me, it was just the deactivation effect of my clone." Haryu replied calmly.
"Don't bullshit me. A clone deactivating at most just reverts to its original substance. Water Clone turns into water, Earth Clone turns into earth, Wind Clone turns into…" Ashita couldn't continue, he realized it was possible.
"I'm a kekkei genkai, I developed five elemental clones on my own, and each one has an ultra A-rank jutsu. The one fighting you was the Fire Clone, the one just now was the Wind Clone, and the one that was lurking before was the Water Clone."
Ashita stumbled, almost falling off the tree branch. "You're a kekkei genkai? Why didn't you tell us?"
"You didn't ask."
"Then, did you two know?" Ashita, having been outsmarted, turned back to ask his brother and Yomi.
"Hmm. Are you convinced now?" Yomi looked at him with a smile, although he couldn't see the expression, Ashita could feel her emotions. She was clearly mocking his ignorance… but he could only accept it. Kekkei genkai, a truly rare bloodline.
"You're a real genius, huh. Captain Tenryū." Ashita, realizing the situation, called out to the captain, vaguely expressing his acceptance, then said no more.
As expected, the Anbu was still about strength. Haryu didn't need to say anything, after showing his strength, people would naturally be convinced.
It wouldn't be long before the four of them reached Konoha.
"Disband, I'll notify you when there's a mission, I'm going to submit a report." After saying this, he jumped onto the roof alone and ran towards the Hokage's office. After all, the mysterious people who appeared halfway through this time made him a little concerned, so he decided to report directly to the Hokage.
"Hey, captain, why are you leaving so fast? You finished the job, aren't you going to treat us to a meal?" Ashita muttered to himself, following Tsuki into the gate, and casually took off his mask. "Whew, the captain is so strong. I got it wrong this time." He said as if mocking himself.
"Have you learned your lesson?" Tsuki asked coldly without turning around.
"Tch, I don't care, I won't admit it if I can't beat you…"
On the other side, Haryu found the Fourth Hokage.
"Yo, Tenryū. How was your first mission?" Haryu didn't take off his mask, so Minato could only call him by his codename. Although this mission was very simple for a ninja, Minato still greeted him.
"Hmm, it was completed successfully. But there were some unexpected incidents." Haryu calmly summarized. "Before we intercepted the bandits, a group of people, they say they were wearing white robes from hundreds of years ago, and they had strange eyes, they attacked them first."
"White robes…" As soon as he heard this, Minato thought of the Otsutsuki clan that appeared eight years ago. "But, many kinds of strange eyes?"
This characteristic didn't appear in the records of the Otsutsuki clan that appeared at that time. Minato remembered that the Otsutsuki named Yomi only had the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, where did the many kinds come from?
"Tenryū, are you sure they saw many kinds?" This wasn't something to joke about, Minato had to confirm again.
"Hmm, that's right. This intel is credible. And, we sensed their presence at that time, they must have sensed us too. They completely disappeared before we made a move. There was no trace. They haven't appeared again since then."
"Suddenly disappearing… could it be that someone is really planning something in the dark… besides the Otsutsuki, the only ones who can suddenly disappear are… the people in black who caused the Nine-Tails to rampage. But, we don't have any information about either the people in black or the Otsutsuki." Minato turned around, his right hand stretched out to support the glass, his left hand supported his forehead, gently rubbing it, his eyes closed.
Dong! Dong, dong!
"Come in." Minato said weakly. The current Shinobi World, there were too many powerful people in the dark, Minato was a little panicked. Although the Otsutsuki had saved them once, it was just a coincidence, they were still uncertain whether they were friend or foe. It could only be said that Haryu was a very useful ninja in this village.
"Fourth Hokage-sama. Oh, Haryu… Tenryū, you're here too."
"Hmm, Captain Yamato."
The visitor was Yamato. He was still wearing a mask, and he was holding a scroll in his hand.
"Hmm? Yamato, do you have any news?" Minato had previously assigned Yamato a covert mission, it seemed to be complete.
"Hmm. A ninja village has been established in a corner of the Shinobi World, called Otogakure. The founder and members are not clear, but it can be understood that there are very few ninjas. The location is in the heart of the Land of Rice Fields, easy to defend and difficult to attack." Yamato said, placing the scroll on Minato's desk.
"Yamato, you've worked hard." Minato reached out to take the scroll, preparing to learn about the intel.
Slap!
Haryu suddenly leaped forward, pressing down on Minato's hand, then turned around, kicked off the corner of the desk, leaped back, and slammed his fist into Yamato's mask.
Bang!
The mask shattered.
Minato and Yamato were both caught off guard.
Haryu didn't stop his attack, he landed, got up and jumped without stopping, his thumb flicked and the sleeve dagger came out, and Yamato hadn't had time to get up.
Tenryū Flow: First Style: Needle Through a Hole!
Haryu's left arm stabbed straight towards Yamato, who was still lying on the ground, but he dodged by rolling on the ground. Haryu continued to pursue, his right arm rotated and expanded with the momentum.
Finishing Move: Horizontal Whip!
This time, the range was wider, and Yamato, lying on the ground, saw the sleeve dagger whistling down from above, he suddenly showed a horrified smile, and said hysterically: "What a good kid." Then he gave up resisting, the sleeve dagger accurately slashed across Yamato's neck.
There was no blood.
Bang!
Yamato disappeared directly.
Or rather, it was the clone of a ninja who had used Transformation Technique that disappeared.
"Haryu…" Minato still hadn't reacted, his long-term work with Yamato had made him unconditionally trust Yamato, so he naturally wouldn't suspect him. Of course, Yamato wouldn't betray Minato. So, was this a warning from Otogakure? The reliability of the information was greatly reduced. Yamato must have been captured.
