Shinji looked around and felt a little depressed when he saw the dead and injured convoy.
In just such a short time, more than half of the team members were killed.
The two chunin in Asuma's team were all killed in the battle. At least a dozen of the Demon Country guards who were protecting Shion were killed in the battle, and almost everyone else was injured.
In comparison, Sasuke is pretty good.
Only Neji's arm suffered a small injury, which was considered a disaster. Sasuke was hit hard on the chest, leaving a large bruise.
Whoa.
At this moment, accompanied by a roar, Asuma hurried back to the team.
He looked very embarrassed when he saw the corpses all over the place and the wailing wounded.
After realizing that the other party might have deliberately lured him away, he understood that the convoy must have also been attacked. However, the black-robed ninja who was entangled with him was very powerful. Even he could not kill him for a while. , so I came back late.
Suppressing his anger, he found the bodies of two teammates.
"Damn it!"
Looking at his teammates who died tragically, he clenched his fists, and the anger in his eyes could no longer be suppressed.
At this time, a guard from the Kingdom of Ghosts came to Asma and asked, "Mr. Asma, do you know who attacked us?"
Asma opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say, so he had to He shook his head again: "I'm sorry!"
"Hey!"
The guard from the Kingdom of Ghosts sighed.
Asuma felt guilty and turned his face to the side.
Following his line of sight, he glanced at the four Shinjis and saw that they were all safe and sound. He was secretly relieved, and then looked at the carriage where Shion was sitting: "Is your highness the miko okay?" "Your highness, everything is fine!" After a moment of hesitation
, The guard from the Kingdom of Ghosts said: "It's strange, the other party doesn't seem to be coming for Your Highness." The
attacker clearly had many opportunities to attack Shion's carriage, but never did so.
People with a little experience can easily determine that the opponent's target is not Shion!
Therefore, the guards of the Ghost Kingdom were very confused.
They really couldn't figure it out. If the attacker wasn't coming for Ziyuan, then who was he coming for? This attack is so weird!
Asuma was a little embarrassed and could only say perfunctorily: "Don't worry, we Konoha will definitely give you an explanation!"
Although he failed to keep the black-robed ninja who was pestering him, he had already guessed the identity of the other party. We are almost inseparable.
After guessing the other party's identity, it is naturally not difficult to guess what the other party's purpose is.
So Asuma knew very well in his heart that this attack was probably caused by Shinji Uchiha or Sasuke Uchiha who were traveling with him.
But in the final analysis, this is an internal strife within Konoha.
Facing the guards of the Kingdom of Ghosts and the dirty things in the village, it was really hard for him to talk about it, so he could only live with it.
the other side.
Sasuke and others came to the place where the black-robed ninja was buried.
Among the four attackers, the one who entangled Asuma escaped, and the one who was chasing Shinji was killed by Shinji in the woods.
The remaining two who attacked the convoy died under the detonating talisman, and all of them had no bones left.
After using his Sharingan to observe for a long time but not finding any useful clues, Sasuke asked Neji beside him: "Did you find anything?" Neji shook his head: "The detonating talisman blew up their bodies
. Broken, leaving no clues."
Ninjas are also made of flesh and blood.
Even a Jonin cannot withstand the close-range explosion of the detonating talisman, so it is difficult to leave any clues under such an explosion.
Sasuke asked Shinji again: "Shinji, do you have any clues about the guy you killed in the woods?"
Shinji shook his head: "I was in a hurry to get back, so I didn't search his body."
The identity of the other party, Shinji Already known.
But he was not prepared to reveal it, because not only would it not help, but it would also intensify conflicts and make Danzo desperate to take risks.
And by observing Asma's expression, he vaguely felt that Asma had already guessed something, so leaving this matter to Asma to expose was much safer than just a few of them.
Sasuke was a little confused: "That's strange, why didn't you check the other party's body?"
Neji looked helpless: "If Shinji had come back a little later, you might have been taken hostage by now!" "
I"
Sasuke suddenly said Speechless.
Shinji explained casually: "Since the other party is so sneaky, he must have made preparations. Even if he searches the body, I'm afraid he won't get any useful clues for a while." "That's right." After hearing this, Sasuke and the others were all
excited
. It makes sense.
Because the black-robed ninja whose heart was pierced by Kimimaro just now resolutely detonated all the detonating talismans on his body before his death, destroying his body and eliminating traces of himself.
Shinji did not continue this topic.
In fact, the several root ninjas who carried out this operation did not completely hide their identities. Under the black robes, they were wearing their root clothing.
From this point, we can also see the contempt of these people.
However, if you look closely, you can't blame these elites. After all, Kimimaro, the oldest among them, is only ten years old, Shinji and Neji are only eight years old, and Sasuke is only seven years old.
Several people stood in front of adults, barely tall enough to reach their chests.
Under such circumstances, no matter who you replace, you will inevitably underestimate the enemy.
After a brief chat, everyone began to clean up the battlefield and treat the wounded.
Because he had learned medical ninjutsu, Shinji temporarily acted as a medical ninja, treating the injuries of the wounded in the team.
Watching the wounds of an injured person heal quickly under Shinji's medical ninjutsu.
Not to mention Sasuke and the others, even Asuma, who was a Jonin, was surprised and praised Shinji's medical ninjutsu.
You must know that even in a great ninja village like Konoha, medical ninjas are very rare. Only a very small number of teams can be equipped with professional medical ninjas.
after a little while.
Shinji treated the wounds of all the wounded and professionally bandaged them.
While Shinji was treating everyone, the survivors in the team sorted out the bodies of their teammates and lined them up neatly.
So many familiar people are gone, and their bodies are still close to our eyes.
The impact it gives people is not ordinary!
The surviving guards of the Kingdom of Ghosts sighed softly one by one.
Asuma also sighed, and then he glanced at Shinji and the others, and a hint of surprise suddenly flashed in his eyes.
He originally thought that after experiencing such a brutal fight and seeing the corpses in front of him, Shinji and several students from the ninja school would be frightened.
But they didn't realize that they were just silent and not frightened.
Obviously.
Asuma underestimated Shinji and the others.
Needless to say, Shinji, Sasuke, and Kimimaro were all remnants of the genocide. Neji was also a person who witnessed his father's tragic death at a young age.
Although she is young, she is no longer a flower in the greenhouse.
Just when everyone was silent, Sasuke suddenly said: "Although the casualties are not small, at least we have changed our destiny!"
Sasuke's words suddenly broke everyone's silence.
"Yes, we survived!"
"Did His Highness's prophecy go wrong?"
"Perhaps His Highness didn't see it clearly? It's an indisputable fact that we are still alive!"
In an instant, the guards of the Kingdom of Ghosts started talking. stand up.
Before that, they all thought they were dead this time.
As a result, when the catastrophe passed, although there were heavy casualties, the entire team was not wiped out as Shion predicted.
So if compared with the prediction, the current result does not seem unacceptable.
Neji had some doubts: "Did we really break the prophecy?"
"Isn't it obvious?" Sasuke smiled and then said, "We broke Shion's prophecy with our own hands!" "
But..."
Neji frowned slightly. Still in disbelief.
Sasuke said: "There is nothing wrong with it. Don't forget that the guys who attacked us are all Jonin. It will not be easy for us to win this time."
Neji seemed to be convinced and nodded lightly.
Because in his opinion, the attack by the four jonin was indeed in line with Shion's prediction.
Before this, he himself didn't think that he could survive the joint attack of the four jounin, but it happened and they survived!
Kimimaro began to think after hearing this.
He instinctively felt that something was wrong. Although the attacker was strong, in his opinion, it was far from the level predicted by Shion.
Because only he knows it.
If he was desperate, he alone would be able to deal with at least two attackers, plus Asuma, the leader, and Shinji, Sasuke, and Neji.
With a lineup of four Jonin, it would be difficult to completely destroy their team.
"It's too early for you to be happy! The real trouble is probably still to come!"
Shinji secretly cursed.
Compared to Kimimaro's intuitive feeling that something was wrong, he was much more certain.
Even if he is currently in the fusion stage of the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan and cannot use the Eye Technique, it is impossible for the lineup of four jounin to completely destroy his team.
Therefore, the disaster predicted by Ziyuan is definitely not this attack on the roots!
However, looking at the people who were relieved, he did not express his judgment.
First of all, saying it won't change anything, so it's better to wait and see what happens. Secondly, he failed to explain his basis.
At this time, Asuma found Shinji and asked Shinji to lead him to the woods to check the body of the attacker who was killed by Shinji.
But when the two of them rushed to the woods, they only found a pool of blood on the ground.
Shinji said: "I got rid of him here, but for some reason, the body was gone!"
Asuma squatted on the ground to check, and then said with a gloomy face: "It should have been taken away by his companions. !"
Shinji asked casually: "Who are they?"
Asuma looked at Shinji: "What do you think?"
Shinji shook his head: "I don't know."
Asuma withdrew his gaze: "Leave this matter to me Let me handle it!"
After returning to the convoy, Asuma discussed with a team leader from the Kingdom of Ghosts: "I have sent a request for help to the village, and someone came to pick us up soon, so I suggest that the team temporarily stop moving forward. , stationed on the spot, waiting for reinforcements to arrive."
The leader of the Demon Country gently nodded: "I'll leave everything to Mr. Asuma!"
"Don't worry, I will send Your Highness the Miko back to the Demon Country safely."
After that, Asuma came to Shinji and the others.
He looked at a few people and said, "You are indeed a genius from the Ninja School. It's all thanks to you this time!"
Sasuke raised the corner of his mouth.
Neji asked: "Asuma-sama, what are your plans next?"
"You guys should just call me sensei. Maybe I will become your leading jounin in the future." After raising his hand, , Asuma first lit a cigarette for himself and took a puff: "The situation is not good now. I have already discussed it with the Kingdom of Ghosts. The team is temporarily stationed on the spot, waiting for reinforcements."
Shinji Upon hearing this, I felt relieved.
What he lacks most now is time, so he very much agrees with Asma's arrangement.
Sasuke was a little confused: "Does the other party still dare to mess with us?"
Looking at the young and energetic Sasuke, Asuma smiled and shook his head: "You guys are still young, and I don't want you geniuses to die young. On the way to growth."
Neji said quickly: "Asuma-sensei, don't worry, we will assist you well before the reinforcements arrive!"
Asuma nodded, then pondered for a moment, and whispered : "Would any of you ask the witch in the Kingdom of Ghosts to confirm whether her prediction is really wrong?"
Shinji was speechless.
Unexpectedly, Asuma, who seemed not to care at all about Shion's prophecy, actually cared so much.
After the explanation, Asma began to be busy with the garrison of the team.
In fact, his letter asking for help was not sent after the attack.
But after learning about Ziyuan's prophecy, he immediately sent a request for help to the village, so if nothing unexpected happened, the reinforcements would arrive soon.
But he never would have thought that it was because of his letter asking for help that the root ninja who had been following them misjudged and launched a hasty operation before the team left the Land of Fire.
And this time, there were not one, but two root teams following them.
When they were attacked, another Root team attacked Kakashi's team, which was also secretly following the Demon Country team, preventing Kakashi's team from being able to come up with reinforcements in time.
It's just that the root ninjas didn't expect that this should be an easy operation, but there would be such a big mistake!
Early the next morning.
A four-person team composed of Yuhi Kurenai, Yamashiro Aoba, and two other Konoha chuunin joined the team from the Kingdom of Demons.
The arrival of reinforcements restored the morale of the team.
The convoy set off again, heading towards the Kingdom of Ghosts.
In the next few days, the team did not encounter any attacks and successfully left the Kingdom of Fire. Just when everyone thought that Shion's prophecy was indeed wrong and everyone was safe, the messenger from the Kingdom of Ghosts found the team. And came a message.
"What, the sealed land was attacked?!"
After hearing the news, the guards of the Kingdom of Ghosts were in chaos.
Asuma, the leader of the team, quickly asked: "What's going on?"
Liu Shen Wu Zhu, the leader of the Ghost Country, said: "Oh no, disaster is coming! We must send His Highness back to the Ghost Country as soon as possible, otherwise, the world will fall into chaos. In the endless flames of war!"
