"Let's go!" Eight black figures moved in response. Kushina was too lazy to manage and directly handed over the command of the team to Yu Ling. It just so happened that there were people here that she was not familiar with, so the push went smoothly.
"Yu Ling, I suggest you go to the western stronghold first." Kimimaro suggested in a low voice after jumping on the branch and following Yu Ling.
It just so happened that Yu Ling hadn't thought about the order in which to act, so he was just thinking about this issue now.
"Is there any reason?"
"Well. When we set off, Orochimaru was in the southern stronghold. The environment there was the most suitable for him and his snakes. So I speculate that the western stronghold will be easier to conquer. The information Jugo and I have may It's not comprehensive. If we can get other information, we should have an advantage." Ever since he saw Orochimaru's ugly face, Kimimaro has always been devoted to Yu Ling. Naturally, he would not let go of the opportunity to overthrow Orochimaru.
"That's it... what about the distance difference? A little more time will lead to more changes. Captain Yamato..." What troubled Yu Ling was nothing else but the few hundred miles between the southern stronghold and the western stronghold. land.
Even with the speed of a ninja, it would take a whole day and night. Then counting the various battles and rest time, it would take almost three days to reach Orochimaru.
"There is a gap...but if you face Orochimaru directly...it's actually possible. But I still recommend going to the western stronghold first. There are two people there, named Suigetsu and Uzumaki. Suigetsu is good at water escape ninjutsu and swordsmanship. , and Xianglan is good at medical treatment and perception. If they can join, our combat power can be improved a lot." Jugo caught up from the other side and helped Kimimaro added.
"Is that so... eh? The Water Escape Ninja... is that the one?" Yu Ling touched his bare chin and murmured in a low voice.
"Captain, what did you say?" Zhongwu heard a little bit of muttering to himself, then turned his head and stared at Yu Ling's side face seriously and asked.
"Huh? It's nothing."
"Yeah."
"Yu...Tian Ling, changed the route?" Kushina felt that she had deviated from the original route. She left the three jounin around her and wrapped chakra around her feet, bursting out twice. He rushed to Yu Ling's side.
"Yes, let's get rid of some of the little ones first." Yu Ling lost his mask and his smile became much more natural.
"That's it. Why don't you let us go? You go directly to save Yamato." Kushina didn't think too much. Hitting the target directly was the simplest and most positive strategy.
"We may not be able to defeat Orochimaru...after all, he is also the legendary Sannin." Yu Ling himself still has the consciousness of being a junior. Although he is hailed as a genius, he knows that he is currently unable to fight against the Kage level. The capital of the strong. Without relying on the strength of Kushina's team, it would never be possible to succeed.
"That's it, then let's change it?" Kushina pouted and thought about it for a while before coming up with a countermeasure. "Anyway, it's our mission to save Yamato."
"Well... ok. Then I'll trouble the captain." If you want to subdue the two strong men named Suigetsu and Karin, it's really not easy to do it with Kushina's team present. , very likely to be killed directly on the spot. Since Kushina himself requested to rescue Yamato personally, that just gave him a reason to send away that team.
"Okay, Kai! Call the two people next to you, let's go beat Orochimaru!" Relying on the combat power of the four elite jounin, Kushina couldn't help but become arrogant. In the ninja world, a team with all jounin members can indeed go anywhere.
"Huh? What will Xiao Yuling and the others do?
"Why do you care so much? I feel like I can catch up and save people! "Kushina didn't wait for them to catch up, turned around and waved to Yu Ling, then rushed out alone.
Far behind, Asuma waved the map in his hand and shouted hesitantly:
"That , Captain, do you know the way? "
"I do not know. "
Then do you want to come back and have a look..."
"Ah?" Wouldn't it be nice if you guys just caught up? "
Then please wait for us..."
"Okay." "The chakra under his feet exploded in reverse, and he stopped his forward movement and turned around to face the three people running over. "Hurry up, hurry up! "
Yes, yes..."
...
"Shuiyue, how is the western stronghold?"
"Da... Lord Orochimaru, everything is fine over there. " "
"Um. You go and have a look with the fragrant phosphorus. You've finished the work here. "
Oh, okay! " "Being able to leave Orochimaru's side has always been what Suigetsu looks forward to most. Now that the opportunity is right in front of you, how could you not seize it?
"Wait a minute, where are Kimimaro and Jugo now? "Kimimaro has always been his most loyal subordinate. Even if he regards Kimimaro as experimental material, he still cares about it.
"The two of them... I don't know very well. I haven't seen them for a long time. The perception of Xiang Phosphorus has never been captured. "Facing Orochimaru's coveting of his physical characteristics, Suigetsu has always been on tenterhooks. When he knew that this was not what he wanted to ask, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's it, you guys can look for it along the way when you go back. . It would be bad if Jugo went berserk.
"Don't worry, with Kimimaro here, Jugo won't go berserk. " " Shuiyue moved back and waved his hands and said quickly.
"Well, you can set off now. "
Yes, Lord Orochimaru." "
Bang!
" "Tsk, you incompetent coward." Are you so afraid of Lord Orochimaru? "Outside the door, Xiang Lun punched Shui Yue unceremoniously in the face. Shui Yue didn't react for a moment, and before he had time to rehydrate, he was hit and fell to the ground.
"You... idiot. "Suigetsu is not happy to be entangled with Xianglan. After all, Orochimaru is behind a door. Leaving here first is the most important thing.
"Oh, it's rare. He actually didn't quarrel with me. Have you decided to obey me?
"Okay, okay, let's set off now and go to the western stronghold. " "
Tsk, okay, okay. " Orochimaru-sama let you go? "
"Um. the same as you.
" Tch, coward. " "
...
"Let's go, there is one eastern stronghold left. I didn't expect it to be resolved so quickly here. " Shanfeng and Tori looked at each other, patted Nonoyu's shoulder, and took back the puppet that he had put aside earlier.
"Ah..."
"Xiuhong, you go first. I feel with my roots in the middle. Nonoyu, please protect yourself later. "
"okay. "Nonoyu has not yet recovered from the shock. In any case, the performance of the two people is somewhat unexpected. It is unbelievable
how lucky they are.
...
"Kabuto, how is the northern stronghold?
"Lord Orochimaru, as you expected, that side was the first stronghold that Konoha's people broke. " They didn't find the cursed ninja underground, they just destroyed the surface disguise and left directly. "
"Hahaha... Are all the people in Konoha trash? It's been so long, you haven't even seen my people. Well, let the people in the northern stronghold rebuild directly, stay where you are and don't move. Then, you go to the East Welcome them at the stronghold."
"Lord Orochimaru is wise. Curse Seal·Dead Soul Technique! Go and pass on Lord Orochimaru's order." The boy with round glasses unfolded the sealing scroll, revealing some spells and spells. After performing two seals, he summoned two real clones who looked exactly like himself.
"Kabuto, you are more reliable."
"Thank you, Lord Orochimaru. It is my honor to serve you."
Orochimaru chuckled softly, stood up, and walked towards the deepest part of the stronghold ...
"
Hey, the direction is set, speed up, speed up! Our ANBU captain is still captured!"
"Captain Kushina...that's what I said, but you are using the Kyuubi's chakra, of course we can't catch up. Huh." Kai muttered a little aggrievedly. Now that his life force has not recovered, it is too reluctant to use the Eight Gate Dunjia Formation. He can only release chakra reluctantly and attach it to the soles of his feet, slightly increasing his speed.
But even so, the speed gap between the three of them and Kushina is still huge. As a result, Kushina had to look back every few steps to see who might have to stop and wait.
"Kai! How dare you talk back! You don't listen to the captain's words well, you're dragging your feet, and you still talk about me?" Kushina's whole body was shocked, and she removed the nine-tailed chakra possession. "Watch it! I don't need the Nine-Tails chakra, you all should follow closely!" After saying that, he threw up his hair and rushed forward with his feet on the branches.
"Hey, Kai...you're not helping." Asma wiped the sweat from his forehead and followed Metkai.
"Huh? I... Hahaha, let's spend your youth to the fullest!" Kai put one arm on his waist and exposed his charming teeth... he laughed heartily, threw his arm behind his back, his posture suddenly lowered, and he stared for a long time. Shinai's back shot out.
"Hey, Asma, let's follow."
"Can you keep up?"
"It's okay, let's go."
"Okay."
...
"Ah, I didn't expect that the young master's tactics are not bad. I just don’t understand what he wants to do now. Obviously, if twelve people go directly to surround Orochimaru, the mission can basically be completed. Why does he have to go around in a big circle, take out all other strongholds, and then come back to rescue some ANBU? Captain?"
Yu Yefei was floating, sitting in mid-air, controlling the air around him to push himself forward. In order to prevent his shadow from being discovered by Yu Ling, Yu Yefei spent a lot of effort.
"Head of the Reconnaissance Department, Yu Yefei, listened to the order, immediately shared his perspective, and filled out the regular report within half an hour."
"Huh? What, didn't you just submit one before? Tsk... these old guys, even I can't believe it. ? After all, he is considered a high-level person. Let’s share it, Samsara Eye!” Yu Yefei was speechless, holding a scroll that appeared in front of him, and opened the Samsara Eye at the same time.
The scene he was watching was all transmitted to the minds of five old men who also had the Samsara Eye somewhere in the world.
What he saw was the Tianlong team advancing in the forest.
"You still have fifty-nine minutes and twenty-eight seconds."
"Ugh...trouble." Yu Yefei was able to complain without restraint, naturally because of the shielding barrier he set up around him. A "vacuum world" that is completely isolated from the world and cannot be penetrated by any medium.
"There seems to be something approaching from the front."
