"Captain Tianling, Lord Hokage has replied!" Half an hour later, Moon Rabbit jumped down from the tree, holding a scroll engraved with Hokage's exclusive coat of arms.
"Well, what did Hokage-sama say?" After hearing this, Yu Ling stood up and walked towards Moon Rabbit.
"I heard that he will send a team from the Roots to assist. It seems to be a special team that has been working together for a long time." Yuetu took a cursory look and briefly introduced the team.
"Gen? Show me." Gen and Yu Ling, in a sense, had a bit of a feud. He will naturally care a little about the assistance from the "root".
After getting the scroll, the four names on it came into view.
"Huh? Are they showing their true colors this time? Why did they abandon the code names..." Four real names, from four different families. This is obviously somewhat unacceptable to the "roots" and even the ANBU. Neither the "root" department nor the ANBU will let team members give up their masks and codenames easily.
Especially the two big families among these four names, Aburame and Yamanaka, were a bit difficult for him to understand.
"Then... Captain, you don't have a mask now, what should you do?" Yue Tu looked at Yu Ling and suddenly thought of his mask that he had destroyed during the battle, and asked casually.
"Me..." Yu Ling really forgot about his own situation. He was so used to wearing a mask that he even forgot that he didn't have a mask on his face now. "Let's leave it like this for now. Anyway, the enemy already knows everything they need to know, so there's no need to wear a mask."
After a little analysis, it felt like the collision and friction between the two people made each other understand each other, so it didn't matter. It is necessary to cover the ears and eyes, and the mask seems to be of no use.
"Okay." Yue Tu walked back to the tree, leaving Yu Ling alone to study the scroll while he went to take care of the six wounded.
"The Aburame takes the root and is good at poisoning and repelling insects. Huh? I remember that the bugs of the Aburame clan are called parasitic insects...Why is it called a phosphorus parasitic insect here? I have never heard of it. . Shuhiro Hanaoka, is good at earth escape ninjutsu and physical defense... He is a bit similar to the "root" member I met before. Yakushi Nonou, a medical ninja, good at intelligence gathering? He is really a comprehensive talent. Shanfeng is good at illusions, physical skills and...puppetry? Isn't this a special fighting method of the Kingdom of Wind? Shouldn't it be said that he is truly a "root"?" The
information of each member was placed in front of Yu Ling, and Of course he wouldn't let it go at all.
"Kimimaro...Yu Ling?" Chongwu woke up, and the first thing he saw was Yu Ling, with a crimson setting sun shining behind him.
"Zhongwu. How do you feel physically?" Yu Ling put down the scroll and started preparing Yang chakra with both hands. After all, when Jugo passed out, the chakra level in his body was very unstable, and he didn't know if his body would return to normal when he woke up now.
"It's okay, I didn't feel much Yin-type chakra." It should have been all released before, and the remaining chakra in the body is no longer enough to trigger a rampage.
Yu Ling's perception didn't detect any strong chakra, so he felt relieved and helped Zhong Wu sit up.
"Yu Ling, hasn't Kimimaro woke up yet?" Naturally, he couldn't let go of the person who was thinking about him in his heart. After he stabilized himself, the first thing he thought of was Kimimaro.
"I'm awake~" A dizzy voice came from under another tree. Kimimaro himself was not seriously injured, and he only received a few superficial wounds during the battle. It was only later that he was forcibly controlled by Yue Rabbit and affected by the mental shock of the Otsutsuki tribe, and he was unable to wake up.
"Kimimaro, don't talk yet..." Yuetu heard the sound and ran over, kneeling beside Kimimaro, stroking his wounds from a distance as if his hands had nowhere to rest.
"Tsukito... did you bandage it for me?" Kimimaro felt like he couldn't move. He turned his head with difficulty before he saw the bandages on his hands and feet, and asked casually with some helplessness.
"Um...yes, it's me...are you feeling uncomfortable..." Yuetu replied hesitantly, his palms unconsciously pressing on Kimimaro's body.
"Thank you." Without saying any more, Kimimaro closed his eyes again and needed to rest for a while.
"Tsukito, is Kimimaro okay?" Juugo listened as Kimimaro's voice became softer. After a while, his even breathing came out, and then he asked Tsukito next to Kimimaro.
"Kimimaro is just tired, and his body is fine. You should have a good rest." As long as he didn't talk to Kimimaro, his voice returned to his normal state, and he looked at Jugo unhurriedly.
"Okay." After saying that, Zhongwu also closed his eyes. The flow of chakra in his body gradually became smoother and regular, and the content of yin attribute also decreased, which was equal to the yang attribute input by Yu Ling.
"Both of them have not recovered, so we can only wait for the "root" people to catch up, and then treat Captain Kushina and the others first, and then make plans." The current situation is really not optimistic, and there is no way to move forward. Can't rest peacefully. Yu Ling and Yue Tu alone could not guarantee the safety of all the wounded.
The only solution is to rely on the team sent by "Root".
It was already getting late, and darkness was gradually covering the place.
"Yue Rabbit, you can rest. I'm here to watch the night, and there's still a handover." Yu Ling jumped up to the tree crown, hid in the dense leaves, and whispered to Yue Rabbit under the tree, his eyes roughly crossing All members of the entire team. Then he opened his Sharingan again, and his vision penetrated the scattered leaves and dust high up.
"Yes, Captain. Please excuse me." Tsukisagi, who had just finished setting up the trap, raised his head and responded, then sat next to Kimimaro and fell into a deep sleep.
"Tonight...I always have a bad feeling."
...
In the forest, four black figures sprang out from the Konoha Forest and rushed straight to the border between the forest and the plain where Yu Ling was.
"Captain, I don't like wearing a mask." A fat man scratched his bald head and complained.
"Fat man, don't talk. Be careful at night. The whole team's safety is focused on you." The man with long orange hair, carrying two short knives and a small puppet on his back whispered to the fat man in front of him. The fat man turned around and smiled.
"Oh, I'm just talking. Okay, okay, I'll shut up." The fat man shut his mouth knowingly. After all, the man who just spoke is the gentlest in the team. Whoever speaks next may beat the fat man to death.
The one at the back is a woman wearing glasses and a white hood. He didn't say a word from beginning to end, and there was a deliberate chill all over his body.
"Nonoyu, there are only a few of us, and you haven't stopped feeling that way." Shanfeng turned around again, looked over the puppet on his back, and smiled at the female ninja behind him who seemed to have a cold look on his face.
"It's not that Danzo-sama said... Okay, okay." Nonoyu also smiled and calmed down his breath a little.
"Quiet." A plain baritone voice spread from the front of the team to the back. The man wore a black eye patch, a black cloak, his hands hidden in a pair of black gloves, and black boots.
The clothes that seem to be completely "rooted" cover up the murderous intent all over his body.
This person seems to be the captain of this team.
The four people rushed at an abnormal speed, leaving behind a series of afterimages in the darkness. Apart from the sound of touching leaves, there was no other sound.
"I've memorized the mission. Now I need to arrive within an hour." Without saying a word, he pulled down his collar and said one sentence, then pulled the collar back directly, hiding his head deeply inside, lowering his head. On the way.
The three people behind did not respond. Following the captain's actions, the frequency of their steps gradually became faster.
...
"There is still no movement around. The people from "Root" should be arriving soon. It feels like the surrounding area has been emptied. Nothing is left..." Yu Ling stood in the canopy of the tree, looking down with his double Magatama Sharingan. Touch the ground and slowly sweep it piece by piece.
There are no living things as far as the eye can see, only irregular dust, accompanied by fallen leaves, dancing in the wind.
After moving his feet, he remained extremely still and crouched down to hide in the darkness.
However, he didn't know that in the eyes of some people, he was the one on the surface.
...
"Tsk, the young master's skill is still not deep, hahaha, you can't see me! That's good, but it seems that what I just did was a bit too much... I drove them all away. I don't know if the young master will notice it. . Pay attention next time, I heard them say that there should be a team from the underground organization coming to support later, please take good care of it!"
On another tree, there was also a person hidden in the canopy. It's just that his concealment methods are even more superb, not a trace of breath is leaked, as if he is integrated with the crown of the tree, breathing together with thousands of leaves.
Naturally, this person was Fei Ye Fei, lying comfortably on his side on a branch, with his legs casually intertwined. He did not forget to pick up a piece of grass from somewhere in his mouth and chewed it.
After Otsutsuki's men were defeated, there was no tension in his eyes anymore, and he returned to the original state of monitoring Yu Ling at the ninja school.
...
"Stop!"
"What's wrong?"
"Shh!"
...
There was silence. After the order was given, no one made a sound.
The good cooperation of the four people was reflected when the first word was spoken. "Fat Man" jumped to the front of the team immediately, formed seals with both hands at high speed, and patted the ground steadily.
However, as if he was simply overreacting, there was no movement around him.
"Captain?" The fat man, Shuhiro Hanaoka, looked back with some doubts at the captain standing upright behind him with his arms spread out, releasing chakra to control the phosphorus bugs.
"Hmm."
"Hmm, what? I want to ask why you stopped." Xiu Hong's brain circuit has always been so straightforward, so he yelled out.
"It's too quiet here."
"Isn't quiet a good thing? Stop, stop..." Before he could finish his words, Xiuhong was pulled behind by Shanfeng and forcibly blocked his mouth.
"Be quiet. Being too quiet is abnormal. The one with the best perception here is the captain. Let's wait until he finishes the detection." "
Feng, help me sense together."
"Huh? Yes."
