Subduing Karin

"Really?"

It was clear that Karin still didn't fully trust Yun Xi. One could easily see deep doubt and a hint of wariness in her eyes.

"Really, I promise I'm not lying to you."

Seeing Karin like this, Yun Xi took out the several thousand yen he had previously obtained from a rogue ninja.

He then said softly, "Look, I have money, I can buy you something delicious."

"But how do I know you aren't tricking me?"

Seeing the yen Yun Xi produced, Karin felt a bit tempted, but out of caution, she still didn't agree to the handsome young man before her.

Although Yun Xi was exceptionally good-looking, and her senses told her that this young man wouldn't harm her, she still felt a sense of vigilance in her heart.

What the hell? Whoever told me that Karin is the easiest female character to trick in the entire Naruto World, come out! I promise I won't kill you!

Yun Xi hadn't expected Karin to be this cautious.

He recalled his past life, when he saw some experts on a forum discussing who the easiest female character to trick in the Naruto World was.

The answer with the most likes was Karin.

But in reality, the caution of the little girl before him made Yun Xi feel somewhat helpless.

He figured that if he had used the same tactics on the likes of Hinata or Sakura, he would have succeeded long ago!

"Leader, we've found the kid!"

Just as Yun Xi and Karin were at a standoff, another group finally appeared.

Just as Yun Xi had guessed, this group was indeed composed of ninjas from the Land of Grass.

"Kusaun, take the target."

A Grass ninja, who appeared to be a Jonin, glanced at the portrait in his hand and gave the order directly!

Another Grass ninja looked at Yun Xi and asked, "What about this brat?"

"Kill him!"

The Grass Jonin cast a cold glance at Yun Xi without the slightest hesitation.

In his mind, as long as the mission was completed, the lives of other civilians were not worth mentioning.

"Run! Their target is me!"

Karin realized what was happening and moved directly to Yun Xi's side.

She gripped the shuriken she had previously used to defend against Yun Xi, and with a look of determination, she continued, "You're a good person, so I'm going to protect you so you can escape!"

Hearing Karin's words, Yun Xi almost died laughing.

He hadn't expected that the first "nice guy" card he received in the Naruto World would come from Karin.

"Hurry and run!"

Seeing Yun Xi still standing in place while the opposing ninjas prepared to strike, a look of anxiety appeared on Karin's face.

"Being protected by a girl isn't the situation I want to see."

As if not wanting to let Karin worry, Yun Xi walked directly in front of her.

He snatched the shuriken from Karin's hand and said slowly, "I told you, if you follow me, you'll have food, drink, and be perfectly safe!"

After finishing his sentence, Yun Xi didn't hesitate for a second and moved instantly!

"Heaven Curse Mark: Stage One, activate!"

"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!"

Yun Xi didn't have the habit of playing the pig to eat the tiger; since he had decided to act, he would go all out!

"What? Who is this brat?"

"Quick, dodge the Fire Style!"

Yun Xi's sudden attack instantly disrupted the Grass ninjas' plans.

Facing the powerful Fire Style, several Genin standing in the back died instantly!

"Water Style: Water Dragon Jutsu!"

On the other side, the Grass Jonin hurriedly took defensive measures against Yun Xi's Great Fireball Technique.

The collision between the Water Dragon Jutsu and the Great Fireball Technique instantly filled the forest with a thick layer of mist.

"Are you really this strong?"

Karin hadn't expected Yun Xi's strength to be so immense, especially considering the opposition was led by a Jonin, with several Chunin and Genin behind him.

Yet, after the first exchange, Yun Xi still appeared to be handling it with ease.

On the other side, the ninjas from the Land of Grass were already suffering casualties.

Furthermore!

Through her innate sensory abilities, Karin discovered that Yun Xi's chakra reserves were greater than the combined total of everyone facing him!

"Watch out, this kid is not to be trifled with..."

Having witnessed Yun Xi's strength, the opposing jonin no longer dared to underestimate him.

His face was filled with extreme caution!

"Heh, it's a piece of cake. Once I kill these nuisances, you're coming with me."

In contrast, Yun Xi felt no pressure at all, even finding the time to chat with Karin.

"Okay... watch out!"

Hearing Yun Xi's invitation once again, Karin agreed.

However, with her powerful sensory abilities, Karin suddenly detected an enemy appearing behind Yun Xi.

She hurriedly called out a warning!

"Go to hell, you brat!"

The very next second after Karin warned him, another jonin from the Land of Grass emerged from the thick fog!

"Fire Style: Ghost Fire Technique!"

Instantly, several pale blue ghost fires appeared beside the other Land of Grass jonin.

They then flew rapidly toward Yun Xi.

Seeing that their companion's sneak attack seemed to be a success, the other Grass ninjas also launched their own attacks!

"Water Style: Water Clone Technique!"

"Fire Style: Fire Dragon Technique!"

"Fire Style: Fireball Technique!"

Although the Land of Grass was a small nation and lacked its own exclusive ninjutsu, they were adept at learning and could master a vast array of basic techniques. While the damage of a single attack wasn't high, the power displayed when many people combined their efforts was still formidable.

"Don't hurt him!"

Subconsciously believing that Yun Xi couldn't dodge these attacks, Karin lunged toward him, intending to use her own body to protect him.

In any case, with her powerful healing abilities, she didn't care about such injuries. As long as she didn't die, she could recover quickly...

"I've already said I don't like being protected by girls..."

"Fire Style: Majestic Destroyer Flame!"

The moment they were struck by the ninjutsu, Yun Xi's cold words echoed across the battlefield once more...

"This brat... how is this possible?"

Watching a wall of fire several meters high swallow his and his companions' ninjutsu, the Land of Grass jonin standing behind them looked on in horror. He knew that his strength was considered quite formidable within the Land of Grass. Even though it was a small country, he was a genuine jonin. Yet Yun Xi looked like nothing more than a young child...

"Guess what I hate the most?"

Along with the ninjutsu, the Land of Grass ninjas who had been standing in front of Yun Xi were also swallowed by the massive flames. The only one left on the field was the jonin who had previously attempted to sneak attack him...

"What?"

For a moment, the Land of Grass jonin hadn't yet regained his senses, answering Yun Xi's question subconsciously.

"I hate it when people sneak attack me the most!"

"Amaterasu!"

Before the Land of Grass jonin could react, a purple flame engulfed him entirely...

"Heh, done."

Seeing that there were no more enemies nearby, Yun Xi deactivated his Curse Mark state and Sharingan. He looked at the stunned Karin with a smile.

"Here... take a bite..."

Suddenly, Karin extended her fair arm and placed it in front of Yun Xi's mouth. Her face was slightly nervous, as if she were prepared to be bitten.
