"Sasuke, what kind of place is this!"
Living in a primeval forest, Karin looked at the surrounding tall trees that blocked the light, and asked doubtfully.
After hearing the question, Sasuke took out the map from his pocket, looked at it for a long time, and murmured, "It has been three days since we left Hidden Village, and we passed Land of Waterfalls, Land of Iron, and Land of Rice Fields on the way. If the map is correct, we should actually have arrived at Land of Hot Water..."
"Through Land of Hot Water, can we get to Land of Lightning?"
Karin asked lazily.
Hearing this, Sasuke hesitated, then smiled bitterly and said, "No, after passing through Land of Hot Water, you will reach Land of the Moon. Then behind Land of the Moon is Land of Lightning!"
The furthest distance between Land of Grass and Five Great Nations is Land of Lightning, so Sasuke and others can reach their destination much later than other teams.
"It's really far away. I don't know if Land of Lightning and Raikage will accept our invitation after we traveled thousands of miles to get there!"
Karin opened his mouth and murmured helplessly.
"Let's just do our best!"
Touching his nose, Sasuke smiled.
In fact, when Sasuke went to Land of Lightning this time, he was not sure about inviting Fourth Raikage A to Hidden Village to participate in the ceremony. After all, Ai is a muscular man with a bad temper. If he doesn't want to participate, no matter how hard anyone tries to persuade him, it will be useless.
"Boom!"
Just after Sasuke's laughter fell, the sound of Explosive Tag's explosion was heard not far ahead.
"It seems there is a situation, we should be more careful!"
The experienced Ryūzetsu knew that there might be ninjas fighting in front, so she warned.
"Yeah!"
Sasuke, Karin nodded, and then the three of them slowly approached the explosion site.
This is a flat land in the forest. As the breeze blows, the smoke caused by the explosion quickly dissipates.
When the smoke dissipated, two figures appeared in sight.
One of the figures was half-kneeling, his clothes were in tatters, and his body was covered in scars, especially on his right leg, where greasy blood was constantly flowing out, staining the ground red.
Another figure was holding a sword in his hand, and his body was shaking due to rapid breathing. On the Forehead Protector worn on his forehead, you can see the logo of Kumogakure.
"Bachi, stop resisting, I won't let you, a rebellious ninja, escape."
Looking at the half-kneeling figure, the figure holding the knife scolded.
"Pfft!"
After the words fell, the embarrassed Bachi spurted out a mouthful of blood. It was obvious that he had been seriously injured in the previous battle.
"Hope! You and I were teammates before, have you forgotten that I once saved you? Now you are the popular person next to Fourth Raikage, why do you need to make things difficult for me?"
The severe pain in his right leg made Bachi understand that the bones of this leg had probably been broken by the shock. At that moment, he couldn't help but gritted his teeth and raised his head, staring at hope not far away, and shouted loudly.
"From the moment you betrayed Kumogakure, we were no longer companions!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xi raised his sword and rushed towards Bachi. Finally, with the force of thunder, he slashed at Bachi's head.
"Don't kill me, I'm willing to go back to Kumogakure with you!"
Looking at the tip of the knife that emitted cold light, Bachi narrowed his eyes and shouted hurriedly.
"Tsk!"
When the sword was still half a foot away from Bachi's head, it stopped suddenly. The energy contained in it was transmitted through the air, directly shaking Bachi's clothes.
"If you had realized this earlier, you wouldn't have to suffer!"
Nozomi slowly withdrew the sword, glanced down at Bachi who was covered in blood and seemed to have no fighting ability, and then turned around and walked away.
Just as hope's body turned around, a look of ferocious resentment flashed across the eyes of Bachi who was lying on the ground. He pressed his palms on the ground and a Lightning Flash hidden arrow shot out from his sleeves and hit Xi's back vest.
"Ah!"
Without any suspense, the unprepared hope screamed and saw a hidden arrow piercing his back.
After hitting hope, Bachi quickly stood up, then clenched his fists and blasted out.
"Hope! You forced me to do this."
The venomous voice reached hope's ears, and a chill of fear spread from his heart. Before he could say anything, force was spit out from the back of his vest.
"Pfft!"
A mouthful of blood spurted out, and hope's body fell to the ground as if being hit by a bull.
"Ta... ta..."
Picking up a sword on the ground, Bachi walked step by step in front of Nozomi who was squirming on the ground.
"Bachi... I didn't expect you to be so mean..."
Raising his head slightly, hope stared at Bachi in front of him and gritted his teeth.
"Hope, don't blame me! As a ninja, you should know that this world is cruel. In order to survive, I can only kill you!"
"Farewell..."
As the last words came out, Bachi raised his sword and pointed it at Nozomi's head, about to stab him.
"Boohoo!"
At this critical moment, several Kunai appeared from the sky and flew towards Bachi.
"Asshole!"
This sudden change made Bachi curse secretly. If he continued to kill Xi, he himself would be injured by Kunai. He had no choice but to dodge to the left first.
"If you dare to ruin my business, I will never forgive you in the future!"
After Bachi stabilized his figure, his eyes twitched and he raised his head sharply, only to see three figures appearing next to Zai Xi. Looking at the Forehead Protector logo on their foreheads, which were three Tomoe and not the logo of Five Great Shinobi Villages, Bachi scolded them boldly.
Looking at the unhappy Bachi, Ryūzetsu smiled faintly and said, "You have no future."
"Hmph, what a crazy tone. Don't think that I can't kill you now that I'm injured. One minute is enough to deal with you ninjas from the Nameless Ninja Village!" Hearing this, even though the situation was a bit wrong, Bachi still couldn't help but sneered.
In the eyes of Bachi, except for the ninjas of Five Great Shinobi Villages, the other ninjas in the Ninja Village are trash.
Bachi had just finished saying these words when he caught a glimpse of Ryūzetsu disappearing in place. Immediately, a chill came over his heart. He stepped hard on the ground with his feet, and with that push, his body hurriedly retreated.
"Bang!"
However, just as Bachi made a move, Ryūzetsu, who was already close to him, kicked out like lightning, directly and hard on Bachi's shoulder.
The strong force caused Bachi to fly upside down like a kite with broken strings, and then hit a giant tree heavily, and there was a faint clicking sound of broken bones.
"Boohoo!"
Sliding down the giant tree slowly, cold sweat broke out on Bachi's forehead. When he saw a few Kunai attached to Explosive Tag on the ground under his feet, he immediately screamed, "No!"
"Bang!"
As soon as Bachi's panicked voice fell, Explosive Tag exploded, and the location where Bachi was was instantly engulfed in raging flames.
