Night.
Hongdou and Ebisu were fleeing quickly in the dense forest at this moment, with countless pursuers behind them.
"Where's the brat?" Hongdou asked quickly.
"I don't know. He seems to have never been exposed. Maybe he has escaped." Ebisu also said.
"Damn it, he really left us alone and ran away?!" Hongdou cursed.
Swish!
whoosh!
Ninja tools kept coming from behind, and the two men were on edge, not daring to stop for a moment.
But they kept dodging the kunai and shurikens, which made the distance between them and the pursuers keep shortening.
Rumble!
The earth suddenly shook, and a deep gully appeared on the surface. This was a large-scale earth escape ninjutsu, causing countless trees in the dense forest to fall.
Hongdou and Ebisu were leaping over the branches in the forest when they lost their balance and fell off the branches.
The pursuers swarmed over in an instant, blocking all escape routes.
"Damn it!" Hongdou immediately stood firm and stood back to back with Ebisu.
"This is a close call." Ebisu pushed up his glasses, feeling his hands tremble slightly. "I told you we should replan."
There are too many enemies, and confronting them head-on with their strength is tantamount to seeking death.
"Stop talking nonsense and break out!" Hongdou snorted, took out a smoke bomb from her ninja tool bag, and smashed it to the ground.
Bang!
The thick smoke exploded and scattered in all directions in an instant, blocking the vision of everyone here. Seeing this, the Prajna crowd immediately began to throw ninja tools into it.
"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!" Ebisu quickly formed hand seals and spit out a stream of blazing and fierce flames from his mouth, breaking through the thick smoke and crushing into the enemy formation.
"Shadow Snake Hand!" Hongdou used a secret technique, and several ferocious snakes flew out from the sleeve of his right arm and bit an enemy with lightning speed.
But soon, the flames were blocked by the earth escape technique that came later. After Hongdou dealt with one enemy, several more rushed forward. The intensive attack made it difficult for her to resist.
"Bang!"
Under such a fierce siege, Ebisu was the first to be defeated and was knocked to the ground and captured. The enemy did not kill him, probably wanting to capture them alive.
Seeing her companions losing their strength, Hongdou's last bit of hope finally vanished.
It seemed like this was really the end. How could she possibly defeat so many enemies on her own?
He held the kunai in both hands to block the enemy's attack while retreating continuously, but was finally blocked by a big tree and his retreat was blocked. The enemy's attack was right in front of him.
whoosh!
A sharp sound of breaking through the air suddenly rang out, and immediately Hongdou saw something rushing out of the throat of the enemy in front of her. It was a bloody kunai, which was nailed to the tree trunk close to her cheek.
What...
Blood gushed out and splashed on Hongdou's face. The warmth made her lose consciousness. The enemy covered his throat with his hands, whimpered twice, and fell to the ground on his back, without a sound.
"There are still enemies!"
All the Prajna people were awakened instantly, as if they were facing a powerful enemy.
boom!
A water dragon appeared from nowhere and rushed out of the dense forest, roaring and rushing towards Ebisu.
Seeing the water dragon coming so fast, the enemies controlling Ebisu scattered in all directions, leaving Ebisu alone standing there with his eyes wide open, thinking that he was really going to die here.
But before Suiryu could reach him, a black shadow rushed over, picked up Ebisu and disappeared on the spot.
boom!
The water dragon exploded on the ground, stirring up water waves of dozens of meters. The wide range forced the enemy to retreat continuously.
While everyone's attention was focused on the water dragon, a ghostly figure appeared in front of Hongdou, so fast that it was difficult to catch sight of it.
The sudden noise made the enemies in front of Hongdou look around, but they only saw a black shadow flash by their side and their ears buzzed like the wind.
There were several dull explosions and the sound of sharp objects piercing the skin. The people who were besieging Hongdou were either knocked away or died tragically on the spot.
All this happened in just a moment.
When Hongdou came to her senses, she had already been lifted up by a brute force and was rushing towards one direction.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
"Don't let them get away!"
"Catch them!"
Some of the Prajna group were growling, some were screaming, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.
Her body seemed to be carried by someone and was flying through the forest. Grass and bushes flew past her eyes. Hongdou was still in shock. Looking at Guanyue who suddenly appeared, she felt indescribable relief and surprise in her heart.
"Didn't you abandon us?"
"Did I say you were hopeless?" Guanyue said.
The joy of surviving the disaster made Hongdou feel relieved. She had just sentenced herself to death.
Hongdou caught a glimpse of another "Kangetsu" fleeing with Ebisu not far away.
Two shadow clones, one feints to create chaos, and the other two take the opportunity to rescue... How daring!
Hongdou thought to herself and realized what had just happened.
"The pursuers are coming again. Can you run away by yourself?" Guanyue's voice sounded in her ears, bringing Hongdou back to her senses.
She was about to respond when she suddenly realized something and her face turned red and white.
"Where are you touching?!"
Guanyue let go and let Hongdou fall to the ground by herself.
"You did this on purpose, didn't you?!" Hongdou quickly caught up and said viciously.
Guanyue just glanced at her chest lightly. Although the lining of the fishing net was very tempting, the slightly raised hill was really not interesting.
The feel is indeed not very good.
"flat."
"This is the standard size!" Hongdou was furious and threw a kunai, but Guanyue dodged it with the side of his face.
While she was still thinking of taking revenge on Guanyue, the noise of pursuers coming from behind made her hold back.
I'll settle the score with you later!
The three of them reunited, and Guanyue also released his shadow clone.
"Can you go any faster? We will be caught up like this." Guanyue said at this time.
Ebisu shook his head awkwardly. He had just been injured, so was this his fastest speed?
Hearing the noise coming from behind getting closer, he knew that if he continued like this, he would probably repeat the same mistake.
whoosh!
A kunai suddenly rushed over and landed on a tree trunk behind them.
"You guys go first!" Ebisu gritted his teeth, "I'll be a burden to you."
Guanyue glanced at Ebisu beside him. This guy looked ordinary, but he didn't expect that he had such awareness.
"Hey, kid, if you dare to do this, I won't forgive you!" Hongdou said angrily when she saw Guanyue didn't respond.
Stupid woman!
Guanyue frowned slightly.
Flying all the way, we came to a river.
Upon seeing this, Guanyue immediately crossed the river and stopped on the other side.
"What are you going to do?" Seeing this, Hongdou and Ebisu stopped.
"Ambush." Guanyue said, "You can run first."
Hongdou was stunned when she heard this, and her face turned red instantly.
"How is that possible! Konoha will never abandon its ninjas!" Hongdou said righteously.
"So what ninjutsu do you know?"
Anko: "Fire escape and some secret techniques."
Ebisu: "Some Fire Style."
Guanyue looked at the river in front of him, not knowing what to say.
Swish, swish, swish!
The enemies finally rushed out of the dense forest, and Guanyue had already formed seals and was waiting for them.
"Water Style: Water Fang Bullet!"
The river suddenly spun violently, forming several tornadoes that rushed towards the enemy.
The enemy seemed to have not expected that Guanyue and his men would dare to ambush them here. They were unable to react in time and many people were hit by the water, screaming everywhere.
The Prajna disciples who had escaped stopped on the other side of the river and cast spells to fight back.
"Earth Release: Rock Cannon Technique!"
"Earth Escape: Earth and Stone Dragon!"
The earth-style ninjutsu performed by so many people was dense and swift, and they rushed forward together.
"Water Escape·Water Formation Wall!"
Guan Yue changed his seal, and a huge water wall suddenly rose in the river. The earth dragon crashed into the turbulent water wall, and the water and soil mixed together, turning into a mudslide. The river became turbid, but it failed to break the water wall.
"Aren't you good at physical skills?" Hongdou was surprised to see Guanyue blocking the attacks of so many people alone.
"My physical skills are indeed better." Guanyue said.
"…"
Seeing that Kanzuki was using the terrain to defeat the enemy, she and Ebisu did not dare to randomly use Fire Style to interfere, so they could only throw kunai and shuriken to help.
Guanyue took a deep breath and felt the chakra in his body being rapidly consumed. He changed the last seal with his hands.
"Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet!"
The rising wall of water suddenly spun and turned into a ferocious dragon, roaring and rushing towards the Prajna group.
"withdraw!"
After Guanyue finished the spell, he fled without looking back.
Anko and Ebisu hurried to catch up.
"Aren't you suppressing them?"
"There are too many people and not enough chakra."
The chase and escape continued. Although Guanyue could use some ninjutsu from time to time to stop the enemy, he could not withstand the large number of Prajna people, and his chakra could not support it at all.
During this time, Hongdou and Ebisu also used several fire escape techniques to set the forest on fire. Unfortunately, the fire spread very slowly and was ineffective after being blocked by the enemy's earth escape technique.
"These guys are really haunting us!" Hongdou couldn't help but curse when she heard the noise from behind and the kunai and shurikens coming at her from the side.
"This isn't a solution." Ebisu gritted his teeth. He knew it was his fault, but there was no other way at the moment.
The words he had just said about asking his companions to leave him behind had almost exhausted all his courage.
Guanyue counted the number of pursuers from behind, there were more than a dozen of them, and he didn't know how strong they were, so the risk of a head-on confrontation was extremely high.
His eyes darkened. "Don't stop. I'll stay behind to cover your retreat."
"Huh?" Hongdou was shocked when she heard that and subconsciously refused.
"No, how can I leave you alone!"
"I'm sure that you will only be a burden if you stay." Guan Yue didn't want to act out any affectionate scenes with them, so he said in a flat tone.
Ebisu's face turned pale and blue. Thinking of his initial opinion of Guanyue, he felt extremely ashamed.
After he finished speaking, Guanyue suddenly stopped on a tree branch and turned to face the back.
Hongdou and Ebisu looked at Guanyue's figure, their hearts filled with annoyance and emotion. At the same time, in order not to disappoint Guanyue's "trust", they rushed away without looking back.
Guanyue was too lazy to care about what his two teammates were thinking at the moment. He looked at the enemy approaching rapidly not far away and slowly closed his eyes.
This is my first time using it in combat, please don't give me any trouble...
When the Prajna group in pursuit saw Guanyue stop, they were overjoyed and immediately swarmed up to surround him.
However, when one person rushed forward impatiently, everyone saw a pair of blood-red and cold eyes at the same time.
Everyone's consciousness was dazed for a moment, and then they saw that everyone around them had the appearance of "Guan Yue".
Is it a clone?
The Prajna disciples took out their kunai and fought the "enemy" without mercy.
When he opened his eyes again, the scene before him was in chaos. There were countless corpses on the ground, and the Prajna group was still killing each other.
When his eyes returned to normal, Guanyue discovered that there was very little chakra left in his body.
Ordinary pupil techniques only consume chakra, right? It seems like the eyes won't have any side effects...
Guanyue thought to himself.
He immediately ignored these confused people and turned around to chase after Hongdou and Ebisu.
The forest was so huge that they ran for a long time without seeing an exit. Fortunately, Guanyue caught up with them not long after.
"hazy!"
Seeing that it was Guanyue who had caught up, Hongdou was immediately surprised.
Weren't we just little kids before? How come we suddenly became so close?
Guanyue was secretly dissatisfied.
"Are you okay?" Hongdou asked with some concern.
"It's okay, the enemy has been dealt with."
"Solved?" Hongdou was stunned, and then she and Ebisu both looked shocked.
"There are so many enemies, and you..."
"I cast an illusion, and all the enemies fell for it. I took the opportunity to kill them."
"Illusion...illusion?"
"Yeah, but my taijutsu is indeed stronger."
"You..." Hongdou looked at Guanyue blankly. She didn't know what the actual situation was like in these casual words.
But the enemy who had previously forced them to live and die was solved just like that?
She found it difficult to accept for a moment.
This guy is obviously her junior, so many years younger than her.
"What's wrong?" Guanyue asked, unable to bear Hongdou's gaze.
"Nothing, it's just... you're so awesome," Anko muttered.
"If it was Shisui who was here, you wouldn't even need to run away," Guan Yue simply said.
Instantly stop the water...
Are you from the same period as this guy?
Now, Hongdou is more willing to believe that there is something else behind the previous rumors about him.
This little ghost is really a mystery, it makes people curious...
You must understand it in depth.
Hongdou made up her mind.

Guanyue glanced at Hongdou beside him and the flatness of her chest, thinking to himself.
Hongdou noticed his gaze, and the look in his eyes instantly became dangerous.
