"It's not easy to control this big thing for seven hours... Even if my chakra has been injected into it, I still have to rely on myself if I want to control it for a long time. Let's talk about this later. I probably won't be able to use this ability in the short term..." Deidara let out a long breath, turned over and jumped off the bird's neck, landing unsteadily next to the two of them.
If Akatsuki hadn't reached out and fished it out, Deidara would have collapsed on the ground because his legs were weak.
"Let's go! There must be delicious food in the tower!" Kurotsuchi, who had had enough sleep, rushed up happily, leaving behind the two senior brothers who had not slept a wink all night.
In the darkness, the figure was completely invisible after twenty meters.
"Hey, Kurotsuchi! This girl... Deidara, are you okay? Let's go, let's follow him slowly." Kurotsuchi offered his shoulder and supported Deidara as he walked along. The two of them were silent along the way. They didn't know whether it was because they were too tired to speak, or because they simply didn't want to break the rare silence in the forest.
...
Unfortunately, where they are, the distance to the tower is exactly the same as Yu Ling.
In other words...it is very likely that a new round of team battle will break out between their two teams, but both sides don't know it yet.
Perception in the dark is the best eye, and Iwagakure is equivalent to a blind man at this time.
The first two members of Kumogakure's team are expected to be the third to arrive, mainly because their birth point is really remote, and they haven't seen many signs after looking for it for a long time. I finally managed to get to the middle before, but I was immediately blasted away.
As for the other Konoha team, they are currently in a completely dissociated state, wandering around the forest without knowing what to do.
The queue was quite long, and it was impossible to tell that it was a team on the icon of the sensing personnel.
If they hadn't always maintained the same direction.
...
"Why is Akane Kai suddenly so diligent? Did my understanding of this person before be too one-sided?" Kabuto Yakushi didn't understand Akane Kai's behavior at all, although he didn't like to see this former person in his heart. He is his captain's man, but he also sees such obedient behavior.
A change was taking place unconsciously, and of course Kabuto Yakushi knew it.
Deliberately restraining this change, he warned himself in his mind that he could not trust a person just because of one thing.
The old job is sick...
"He is still our captain now, and what he does requires us to follow him. Follow him, Yakushi Kabuto, I know you are not convinced, and I know that you have stronger strength than him. But for this mission, Orochimaru-sama still gave him the position of captain. Even if you have something he doesn't know, the center of the mission is still the captain, Akane Kai." Kenmizumi patted Yakushi Kabuto's shoulder and shook his head. He signaled, adding some strength to his feet, and got closer to Akane Kai.
"But...tsk, okay. For your sake, I will give him this last chance. After this mission...he will never have another chance to show off his power!" Kabuto Yakushi bit hard. I clicked my lips. I don't know what happened to my always peaceful mentality today. I just couldn't help but want to fight and grab.
As a double agent, the best thing about hiding his emotions was completely forgotten.
And one of the most taboo emotions, jealousy, appears repeatedly in my mind.
"No matter how you look at it, today is a bit rough..."
...
"Yu Ling." A seemingly calm but hiddenly excited voice stopped Yu Ling, who was still galloping.
I had never practiced before, but I just threw Yakumo off naturally and protected him behind me. His eyes flashed with black and red light in an instant, and he looked directly at the person coming.
"Don't be so nervous, I'm Minato." He slowly raised his hands and introduced himself, barely dispelling Yu Ling's vigilance.
At least the murderous intention is not so serious.
"The Fourth Hokage-sama? Why are you here..." It was really strange to meet Namikaze Minato in such a strange and remote place.
"You have entered the protection area of the central tower. Let me pick you up. Konoha's hope cannot be threatened within Konoha's protection area." Minato said seriously, and his body had naturally moved to Yu Ling.
"I'm not sure of your identity yet, please don't get too close." Yu Ling glanced at Yakumo, who had not yet fully woken up, and released a burst of illusion energy from his eyes, forcibly stopping Minato's movements.
"Ah, this is really a good kid... Such a sense of vigilance, and an almost terrifying sense of teamwork..." Minato looked at Yakumo, who was protected by Yu Ling, with a hint. He knew very well what happened not long ago. The two of them were still tit for tat, but now they care so much. It is obvious that Yu Ling has the ability to put the team before himself.
"Needless to say so much... Please prove your identity first." The Sharingan struck Minato sharply. The chakra in his body was huge and stable, and he really had the demeanor of a Kage-level master.
But these are not enough to prove identity. What Yu Ling needs is some more intuitive evidence.
"My identity...how do you want me to prove it?" Minato scratched his head and smiled awkwardly, looking at Yu Ling and feeling suddenly at a loss.
"For example... cast a few ninjutsu that only the Fourth Hokage can use, right? These should be impossible for others to imitate." Yu Ling stared at Minato's Dantian intently, carefully locking the direction of his chakra, I plan to use the flow of chakra to distinguish the authenticity of this ninja during Minato's operation.
"My exclusive ninjutsu? Then let me show you my Rasengan." The Fourth Hokage's completely original ninjutsu, the Rasengan. By controlling the rotation of chakra to affect the air in a small area, it can finally explode with extremely powerful lethality in an extremely small space.
At this moment, the blue chakra ball was held firmly in Minato's hand, and traces of chakra flow slowly passed from the arm to the palm, and then merged into the chakra ball.
"Rasengan..." Yu Ling has heard of this ninjutsu, and even listened to the Third Hokage explain it carefully. His only regret is that he has never seen anyone else use it.
This also led to Yu Ling's understanding of this ninjutsu remaining at the theoretical level and never practicing it.
This time, the opportunity finally came.
"As long as we can learn his chakra movement and successfully use the Rasengan, it will prove that this man is Namikaze Minato-sama." Yu Ling thought to himself, and the mark in his mind was copied directly to his arm. The chakra was transmitted naturally, and the chakra balls condensed without much effort, and a low hum in the air slowly came out.
"Why did you use it directly? Did you learn it secretly..." Being able to use this ninjutsu means that Minato is real. And now some unexpected questions have confirmed Minato's identity.
"I'm sorry, the Fourth Hokage." His attitude changed instantly, he bowed slightly and pushed Yakumo forward. After all, the ninja in front of him is the Fourth Hokage himself, and it would be rude to hide Yakumo.
"Eh? What, this is the Fourth Hokage? Ah...Hello, Hokage!" Yakumo suddenly woke up and bowed at a standard ninety degrees, almost unable to get up.
"Hello, Kurama Yakumo." Minato smiled softly, lighting up the surroundings like sunlight in the dark forest. It's more useful than Yu Ling's Yang chakra.
"This is..."
This must be the aura of a strong man. Just by breathing, he can release unparalleled momentum, infecting people around him and affecting their emotions.
"Lord Hokage...you...why..."
"Yu Ling has already asked this question, let's go, I will take you to the tower." Minato began to appreciate these two children more and more, not only Yu Ling Ling has such a vigilance, and Yakumo, who has no frontal fighting ability, also has it.
It can be said that no matter where these two children are thrown into, they will not be easily deceived.
"Is that so... Let's go then..." Yakumo's voice became smaller and smaller until he couldn't hear it. His little hand held Yu Ling's hand unnaturally, and he followed with small steps. Within a few steps, he was already breathing heavily from exhaustion.
"I'll carry you on my back. Come up here. Lie down and don't move." Yu Ling took a step back, lifted her directly onto his back, and carried her away.
"Hey, Hokage-sama is still here. Can you walk well? I don't have legs!" Yakumo looked at the Fourth Hokage, a little embarrassed to be entangled on Yu Ling's body like this.
Although he is still a child, it is a bit unsightly anyway.
Men and women are not intimate with each other.
"It's okay. The Fourth Hokage-sama will know your physical condition. Just lie down and he won't care." Yu Ling changed his position again, making Yakumo more comfortable lying down, and then turned on He entered sprint mode, chakra was swimming around his body, and he could barely keep up with Minato's speed. Two phantoms, one yellow and one black, shuttled through the forest.
"You can actually carry a person on your back and still be able to catch up with my speed..." Minato secretly acquiesced, the potential of this boy was really completely invisible.
Every time he feels like he needs to be finalized, he always puts on an even more amazing performance.
I don't know where his bottom line is at all, and I don't know where he got such a strange talent.
"Is this the Otsutsuki clan? Bloodline...is it really that important?" This kind of thing has never been taken seriously by Minato, who comes from the Pingmei family, but in Yu Ling's case, he really feels that it is because of the bloodline , which led to him having such endless wisdom and potential.
"Fourth Hokage-sama? The next assessment is just one-on-one, right?" Yu Ling asked suddenly, with a serious look on his face.
"That's... indeed. However, among these candidates, are there any opponents worth worrying about?"
"No, if it's just a one-on-one challenge, I can take some time to rest..."
