Sure enough, the two groups started fighting the moment they met. Enemies really did see red at the sight of each other.
The ferocious fight left Meihui and the others a little dumbfounded. These people in raincoats carrying umbrellas were not to be trifled with. Before long, the two male ninja on the Grass Ninja team were soundly defeated.
When one of them tried to pull Karin over and bite her to recover his strength, the other stopped him, signaling with his eyes that it was not safe here. They hurriedly pulled out a smoke bomb, threw it to the ground, and fled.
As luck would have it, the smoke bomb landed right where Meihui and his two companions were hiding, leaving all three choking on the fumes.
"Cough, cough, cough! Was that guy out of his mind? Doesn't he know he shouldn't litter? What if he hit someone?"
Meihui emerged, cursing up a storm. They heard him before they saw him.
"Who's there?" The Amegakure ninja grew nervous when they heard someone else nearby, especially since none of them had noticed anyone before.
Once the smoke cleared, Meihui and his two companions came into view.
Two blonds... huh? And one guy acting like he was hot shit.
Seeing that the three were Genin from Konoha who looked weak, the three Rain Ninja charged without a second thought.
Before long, however, they paid dearly for underestimating their opponents.
As the saying went, when Konoha's Jonin fought, it was pots and pans; when Konoha's Genin fought, heaven and earth were destroyed. Konoha's strongest ninja were its Genin.
Sure enough, after a flurry of punches and kicks, the three Rain Ninja were the ones lying on the ground.
The three Rain Ninja lay there with bruised faces and swollen eyes. These three brats had no sense of fair play! Who opened a fight by summoning hundreds of Shadow Clones to gang up on people?
And one of those blonds even robbed us! Taking our scroll was one thing, but why did he make us hand over our most valuable belongings too? He even hit us when we refused!
Boo-hoo... Konoha is too dangerous. I want to go home.
Meihui and his companions chased after Karin in the direction she had fled, only to stumble upon this scene.
Karin and her two teammates had just escaped danger when they ran into an enormous bear.
Roaring and pounding its chest, the bear charged toward the three of them. Both men tried to stand in front of Karin, but as the bear drew closer, one lost his nerve and ran.
Although the other stayed, his legs shook uncontrollably with fear.
Karin looked at the teammate in front of her. Not long ago, he had done nothing but hurl abuse at her. Had the sun risen in the west today? He was actually trying to protect her.
"Hey, can you handle this, you scrawny little runt?"
Hearing Karin's insult, the guy really wanted to run too. But before they came here, a man named Orochimaru had told him to keep an eye on Karin, saying something about staying wherever she was.
That man was so terrifying. I really don't dare run.
Meihui, who had been watching from the sidelines, could not take it anymore and kicked Sasuke.
"Hey, Uchiha Sasuke, go save her."
"Why do I have to go?" Sasuke was thoroughly confused after being kicked. Now he was being ordered to rescue someone too. Even a work donkey could not be bossed around like this.
"Just go when I tell you to. Quit dawdling."
Under Meihui's tyranny, Sasuke could only swallow his pride and go rescue her.
Seeing the bear roaring its head off, Sasuke could not help getting a little angry. He rushed up and unleashed a combination of blows.
"Lion Combo!"
His movements flowed seamlessly, knocking the enormous bear flat on the ground.
Karin watched in a daze. Who is this handsome guy? He even looks cool beating up a bear...
Karin gazed at Sasuke with a lovestruck expression. She had already picked out names for their future children.
