Deep in the mountains and forests.
Ning Xue was walking quickly on the branches of a big tree, looking around.
The traces are becoming more and more obvious.
This shows that he is getting closer and closer to the opponent's home base.
When he was about to speed up.
Suddenly!
A feeling of being spied on suddenly surged into my heart.
Ning Xue's pupils shrank, and his figure stagnated for a moment.
This feeling is unmistakable.
Byakugan!
Someone is using Byakugan to spy on him.
Is it Hinata?
Is she targeting my location?
Ning Xue didn't hesitate at all, and immediately closed Byakugan, and at the same time converged his Chakra to the extreme, making it no longer so conspicuous.
Soon, the feeling of being watched disappeared.
Ning Xue was relieved when he saw this, but he didn't want to meet Naruto and the others now.
No matter in terms of identity or position, it is inappropriate and is troublesome.
He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then continued walking deeper into the forest.
Not far behind.
Hinata stopped and frowned slightly.
"What's wrong Hinata?"
Naruto noticed something strange about her and asked quickly.
Hinata did not answer immediately, but continued to scan the front with Byakugan, but after a moment, she shook her head.
"I just... saw someone's Chakra."
"Is it that ninja?"
Naruto's eyes lit up.
Hinata nodded, then shook his head.
"It should be him... but just when I was about to lock it in carefully, his Chakra suddenly stopped.
It becomes very light, so light that it is almost impossible to lock it in completely."
She paused and said with some annoyance.
"Then... I couldn't find him."
Naruto scratched his head.
"Then which direction is he now?"
Hinata points forward.
"It's probably in that direction, the distance... it's hard to judge, he's moving very fast."
Naruto clenched his fists and grinned.
"Okay! Then chase in that direction! It's better than having no target at all!"
Yu Liu looked in that direction and whispered.
"That direction... further ahead is a very deep mountainous area.
I heard before that there are many abandoned ruins there and they are very dangerous."
"Relics?"
Shinnō's voice came from behind, still gentle.
"What kind of ruins?"
Yu Liu shook his head.
"I don't know, I haven't heard anyone mention it."
Shinnō nodded thoughtfully and didn't ask any more questions.
Ten minutes later.
Ning Xue stood on a rock, looking at the remains of some man-made buildings not far away, collapsed stone pillars, walls half-covered in vines, and some totems that looked like wings.
Abandoned ruins.
And the scale is not small.
The captured villagers should be nearby.
He was about to turn on Byakugan and investigate carefully.
Suddenly there was a rush of footsteps and a familiar voice behind him.
"Hey--! That person in front--wait!"
Ning Xue The veins popping up in the corners of his eyes suddenly faded away.
He turned around and looked in the direction he came from.
Four figures were rushing out of the woods.
The blond boy ran at the front, waving as he ran.
Behind him are the panting Yu Liu, Hinata who always turns on Byakugan, and the old man who always has a kind smile on his face.
Ning Xue sighed.
Still got caught up.
He turned around and continued to look ahead, ignoring the shouts behind him.
"Hey!"
Naruto ran to him panting, putting his hands on his knees and gasping for air.
"You... you guy... you are running too fast... I am exhausted..."
Ning Xue didn't look at him and didn't want to speak.
Naruto took a good breath, straightened up, and stared at Ning Xue dissatisfied.
"Hey, why are you ignoring people? We've been shouting from behind for a long time, didn't you hear?"
Ning Xue remains silent.
He just looked at the ruins in front of him quietly, as if there was nothing standing behind him.
Naruto was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly remembered something.
"Hey, hey, are you ignoring us on purpose?"
Still no response.
Naruto's mouth twitched.
"You guy... how can you be the same as Sasuke! You all look like such a stinker!"
Ning Xue heard him comparing with Sasuke, but remained silent.
Yu Liu cautiously Earth Flow stepped forward, stood behind Ning Xue, and bowed deeply.
"Then... that... thank you for saving the village!"
Ning Xue's back was silent for a few seconds.
Then, he turned his head slightly and glanced at Yu Liu out of the corner of his eye.
"You're welcome."
The voice was very flat and no emotion could be heard.
Yu Liu raised his head and wanted to say something, but looking at the cold mask, he finally swallowed his words.
Hinata stood a little far away, turned on Byakugan, and silently observed this mysterious person.
The other party's Chakra is very light and restrained.
It can only be fully locked within fifty meters.
And the other party just stood there, giving her an inexplicable pressure for some reason.
This man... is very strong.
And it's not easy to get along with.
Hinata made a judgment silently in his heart.
Shinnō walked forward with a kind smile on his face and gently patted Yu Liu on the shoulder.
"Okay Yu Liu, this ninja may just not be good at expressing himself.
Let's just do our own thing."
Yu Liu nodded, but still couldn't hide the disappointment in his eyes.
Shinnō raised his head and looked at Ning Xue, his smile still gentle.
"Young man, you are also here to save the captured villagers, right?
In this case, we have the same goal, why not act together?"
Ning Xue finally turned around after hearing this and glanced at Shinnō.
He uttered a sentence lightly.
"No need."
Just two words.
But Shinnō's smile froze for a moment, but quickly returned to normal.
"Haha... It's okay for young people to have their own ideas.
Then we won't bother you."
He turned around and said to the Naruto people.
"Let's go and go down the other side and see if we can find any trace of those villagers."
Although Naruto was a little disappointed, looking at Ning Xue's helpless look, he finally sighed.
"Forget it, let's do our own thing."
He turned to leave, but stopped and looked back at Ning Xue.
"Hey, um... even though you ignored people, you saved that village, so you are still a good person.
And..."
He paused and showed a big smile.
"If you are in trouble, you can come to us for help! My name is Uzumaki Naruto! I am the ninja of Konoha, remember it!"
After saying that, he turned around and strode away.
Yu Liu and Hinata quickly followed.
Shinnō walked at the end, the smile on his face still kind.
But at the moment he turned around, an icy cold light flashed in the depths of his eyes.
Damn boy...
He cursed silently in his mind.
If it weren't for him, last night's plan would have been executed perfectly.
Those villagers should now be transported back to the base to become his nourishment.
Then he faked his death and let Yu Liu explode into Zero-Tails.
But this kid stepped in and not only ruined his plan, but also chased him all the way here.
Shinnō's eyes flashed with murderous intent.
But soon, the murderous intention disappeared.
It doesn't matter.
He has a lot of patience...
(I really didn't expect that the one I sent was wrong again, so it was released for me)
