In the dense forest.
Seven or eight corpses lay scattered on the ground.
Some were dismembered, some had severed limbs strewn about, some had skin completely charred, and two corpses were sewn together with steel wire.
In front of a carriage not far from the bodies, three teenagers stood together, their faces pale.
The teenager on the far right, wearing sunglasses, swallowed nervously and asked, "Might Guy, what strategy should we adopt now?"
Hearing this, the teenager in the middle scratched the back of his head and said softly, "Ebisu, don't ask me such questions; let Shiranui Genma speak."
Might Guy had a bowl cut hairstyle, thick eyebrows, wore a green jumpsuit, and had a red scarf tied around his neck.
Combined with his head-scratching motion, he looked somewhat naturally clumsy.
Seeing both his teammates' gazes on him, Shiranui Genma, who had a senbon in his mouth, said with a trembling voice, "We can only run. Against these guys, any strategy is useless."
Opposite the three were seven Ninja wearing Hidden Mist Village headbands.
Each of them held a uniquely shaped Ninja sword, their eyes gleaming with bloodlust.
"Captain, leave these three brats to me. My kubikiribōchō is already thirsty for blood."
A tall man with red stripes painted on his mouth twirled the large sword in his hand. His eyebrow-less face looked extremely ferocious.
As he finished speaking, a masked Ninja beside him sneered, "Biwa Jūzō, I think it would be more interesting if I sewed these three brats together with my needle."
Seeing the two arguing, the one-eyed Ninja sitting in a tree, fiddling with explosive tags, said impatiently, "Biwa Jūzō, Kuriarare Kushimaru, both of you go. Quickly deal with these three brats, then we'll go hunt other squads."
Hearing this, the obese Ninja with long orange hair nodded and said, "Munashi Jinpachi is right, let's finish this quickly."
Seeing that Suikazan Fuguki, who was the captain, had already spoken, Biwa Jūzō and Kuriarare Kushimaru stopped arguing and simultaneously walked slowly towards Might Guy, Shiranui Genma, and Ebisu, weapons in hand.
"Ebisu, Shiranui Genma, I'll hold them off. You two run first."
Feeling the palpable killing intent, Might Guy forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart and fully activated his body's Chakra.
"Eight Inner Gates Formation: Gate of Injury: Open!"
With a loud shout from Might Guy, green energy began to emanate continuously from his body.
The next second, his figure vanished.
"Konoha Whirlwind!"
Might Guy appeared in mid-air, raising his leg and kicking heavily towards Biwa Jūzō.
However, Biwa Jūzō merely lightly parried with his kubikiribōchō, and Might Guy's body was sent flying heavily.
"You damned brat, to choose to attack me first? Are you looking down on me?"
Being chosen as the first target of attack, Biwa Jūzō felt insulted.
He hoisted his kubikiribōchō onto his shoulder and swung it fiercely at Might Guy.
"Konoha Gōriki Senpū!"
A green figure kicked in from a distance, forcing Biwa Jūzō to block with his kubikiribōchō in front of his chest.
Bang!
With a dull thud, Biwa Jūzō was kicked back several steps by the immense force.
"Father?!"
Seeing the newcomer, Might Guy shouted in surprise.
But the next second, his expression turned panicked.
"Father, these people are very strong, you must run quickly!"
Even they, as Chunin, had no power to resist in front of the enemy, let alone his father, a Genin.
If he didn't run quickly, he would only die in vain.
Hearing this, Might Duy turned back and smiled at Might Guy: "Might Guy, have you forgotten about that move of mine?"
"That move…" Might Guy was stunned for a moment, then two lines of hot tears flowed from his eyes, "But you said that using that move would lead to death, and that power should only be used when protecting the most important things!"
Might Duy smiled and nodded, giving Might Guy a thumbs-up: "That's right, your safety is the most important thing to me!"
"Might Guy, don't cry. Now is the moment for me to burn my youth!"
Might Guy sniffled hard and said loudly, "Father, I will definitely live well."
"Might Guy!"
"Father!"
After crying for a while, Might Duy placed a hand on Might Guy's shoulder and said in a deep voice, "Might Guy, the enemy is upon us. Remember to run quickly later."
Might Guy nodded: "I understand, Father!"
Hearing their conversation, the expressions of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist were all quite remarkable.
You guys actually know that the enemy is upon you now?
Kuriarare Kushimaru said coldly, "Since you two father and son have such a good relationship, I'll sew you together with my needle later."
Biwa Jūzō also said unhappily, "I dislike this kind of scene the most. I'll cut you into two with my kubikiribōchō!"
Might Duy straightened his body again, facing the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist directly, shielding Might Guy, Shiranui Genma, and Ebisu behind him.
A great battle was on the verge of breaking out.
Suddenly, Suikazan Fuguki's expression changed: "There are enemies, everyone be careful!"
Hearing his warning, everyone present was stunned for a moment.
Immediately after, a voice was heard coming from a tree not far away: "You all carry on, I'm just passing by."
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a black-eyed, black-haired man sitting cross-legged on a tree trunk, looking calmly in their direction.
"Hmph! Playing tricks."
Suikazan Fuguki's long hair hardened, shooting like countless senbon towards the bushes not far below the man.
"Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall!"
The next second, an earthen wall appeared out of thin air, blocking Suikazan Fuguki's attack.
Seeing that they had been exposed, Kakashi Hatake, Uchiha Obito, and Uchiha Shisui also walked out directly.
As soon as the three of them appeared, Might Guy excitedly said, "Kakashi! And that… what's-his-name…"
"What are you doing here?!"
Hearing Might Guy's words, Uchiha Obito's face darkened, and he couldn't help but point at himself and ask, "Hey! Bushy Brows, do you not know my name?!"
Might Guy frowned and thought for a long time, then slowly said, "No impression at all."
"Huh?!"
Uchiha Obito was so angry he stomped his feet.
After all, he was once a prominent figure in the Ninja Academy, and this Bushy Brows actually said he had no impression of him at all?
The most crucial thing was that he could instantly call out Kakashi Hatake's name!
Bastard!
Hearing their conversation, Biwa Jūzō sneered, "You bastards are as arrogant as ever. How dare you chat and reminisce as if no one else is here, right in front of me?!"
