Someone in Konoha, Attributes Double Every Day! Section 19

Han Guang stroked his chin.

This number seemed like a lot, but there was one major problem. That was, after Kakashi dealt with the pursuers, how much stamina and chakra would he have left?

You have to know, the pursuers weren't stupid; they would definitely send a signal.

Once dozens of enemies arrived upon hearing the signal, Team 9 would surely be annihilated.

It seemed now that escaping into the forest was merely delaying the time until their annihilation.

"Sigh~~"

Sighing, Han Guang really didn't want to reach this point.

In such a predicament, he had to consider running away.

As for the others?

May they fend for themselves.

Returning to their temporary hiding spot, Han Guang explained their current situation.

"The current situation is, even if we keep running, we'll still be caught by the pursuers."

As his voice fell.

The air fell silent.

Dozens of Chunin hunting down a squad of Genin; it would be a miracle if they could escape. Even Kakashi wasn't confident he could retreat unscathed.

Seeing the atmosphere was right, Han Guang began to lay the groundwork for their escape.

"However, there's one last method!"

"Method?"

"What method?"

"You still have a way?"

Obito and Rin urgently inquired, and even Kakashi found it hard to believe.

In this situation, there was still a way?

Being stared at by the others, Han Guang felt a little embarrassed.

Clearing his throat, he spoke.

"The only way right now is for someone to lure the enemies away."

Lure the enemies away?

Wasn't that just going to their deaths?

In the clearing.

Obito clenched his fist, but lacked a bit of courage.

Rin opened her mouth, but no sound came out.

Kakashi glanced at Minako, and despite his hesitation, his feet didn't move.

Seeing their reactions, Han Guang breathed a sigh of relief.

"Kakashi, from now on, the squad is counting on you."

Glancing at Kakashi, Han Guang left these words, turned, and walked down the mountain, decisively and cleanly.

"Han Guang!"

Obito called out softly.

Then, he saw Han Guang, with his back to them, wave his hand, as if bidding a final farewell.

"Han Guang."

Rin's eyes turned slightly red as she stared at the receding figure.

That figure was tall.

"This, is your choice?"

Kakashi muttered to himself, a certain belief he had always held in his heart was quietly changing.

"Han Guang." Minako silently repeated the name, branding it into her mind.

Chapter Fifteen: The Only One Who Truly Completed the Mission Was Han Guang!

Some people can only be seen clearly in life-or-death crises.

Like now!

In Obito's eyes, Han Guang was lazy, sharp-tongued, and weak.

But in their moment of despair, it was he who stepped forward!

In Rin's eyes, she had always liked the genius Kakashi, but now she suddenly realized that her heart was filled with Han Guang's towering figure.

Compared to the two of them, Kakashi remained silent, his gaze fixed straight down the mountain.

BOOM!!!

Suddenly, the sound of an explosion came from below the mountain, accompanied by rising smoke.

Immediately after, figures darted through the forest, all heading towards the southeast.

"He really led the pursuers away."

Seeing this, Kakashi clenched his fists.

This was an excellent opportunity.

Han Guang was risking their life to create a chance for Team 9 to escape.

"Let's go!"

In the forest.

Team 9 moved forward in silence.

The complex terrain, dense branches, and jagged weeds greatly hindered the team's progress.

Especially since they were carrying Minako on a stretcher.

Rin's hands were cut in several places.

Obito tripped and fell several times.

Even Minako, on the stretcher, was covered in dirt.

"Can you keep going?"

Kakashi, who was clearing the path, looked back and asked.

Rin and Obito nodded.

"Once we get over the hill ahead, we can get onto the main road, and we won't be far from the Daimyo's residence," Kakashi said again.

After speaking, he noticed that Obito and Rin didn't react much.

The Daimyo's residence.

Kawashiro sat high in the central seat, a hint of impatience on his face.

This was his third day as the new Daimyo.

But the thick pile of documents in front of him was making him irritable.

"So being a Daimyo is this troublesome?"

As soon as the thought crossed his mind, his expression suddenly froze.

"What was that sound?"

Just now, he thought he heard screams?

BANG!

Suddenly, the main hall doors exploded open, and three figures slowly walked in.

All three wore masks, and one of them had long, fiery red hair.

SWISH! SWISH!

Two ninja flashed out from inside the hall, blocking their path.

"That speed? Lightning Release?"

The fiery red-haired ninja chuckled lightly, her feminine voice clearly revealed.

"Too bad, you're facing me."

As the words fell.
