"Make friends?"
Yahiko seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world. On that angular young face, anger instantly replaced vigilance.
"Stop talking nonsense here! Hanzō's lackey is also worthy of being friends?!"
He simply does not believe any overtures from unknown forces. You must know that in this land soaked with blood and betrayal, innocence is equal to death.
"Do it!"
An angry shout is the order to attack!
Yahiko's body was like an arrow leaving the string, taking the lead to attack again. The speed of his Hand Seals hands was faster than before, and the flow of Chakra was also more violent.
"Water Release·Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
This time, it was no longer Water Trumpet who was creating obstacles. The rain and moisture in the air that filled the factory were forcibly extracted and condensed by him, turning into a ferocious and roaring water dragon. It opened its bloody mouth and swallowed Senju Chen head-on!
At the same time, Konan's figure floated back and merged into the shadows. Her hands turned into phantoms, and countless pieces of paper emerged from her sleeves, corners, and even out of thin air, like a sudden snowstorm, dyeing the entire space white. But this time, it was no longer a simple Paper Shuriken.
"Paper Release·Paper Prison Technique!"
Those flying pieces of paper no longer shot in a straight line, but quickly circled and fit together in the air. They actually arrived first and tried to wrap Senju Chen into a huge white paper cocoon before the water dragon arrived!
Nagato was hiding in the dark, with purple ripple patterns looming in his eyes covered by red hair. He did not attack directly, but used a more bizarre way to support. Senju Chen could clearly feel that the ground under his feet, the flow of air, and even the refraction of light were all undergoing subtle distortions, and forces were pulling and restraining in the dark, trying to interfere with his every move.
This is a strangulation formation that is several times more exquisite than before!
Facing this murderous intention, the smile on Senju Chen's face became a little deeper.
It's a bit interesting. Yahiko's attacks are full of decisiveness as a leader. Konan's Ninjutsu is weird and changeable, capable of blocking and killing. And Nagato... as a support, all actions are fully coordinated with the other two.
In his mind, he made a calm assessment.
The roar of the water dragon, the whistling of the paper, and the invisible pull, all of this seemed to be in slow motion in Senju Chen's eyes.
He didn't have Hand Seals, nor did he use the elusive Space-Time Ninjutsu.
He just took a step back slightly, and the Ninja Blade on his waist made a "snap" sound and was half an inch out of its sheath.
The next moment, his figure moved.
There is no thunderous momentum, only a smoothness like flowing clouds and flowing water. He is like a fallen leaf swaying in the storm, and like an elf dancing gracefully on the tip of a knife.
His body turned sideways at an incredible angle, narrowly avoiding the water dragon's head. The violent water flow carried a huge impact, grazing his clothes and hitting the wall behind, making a loud noise.
Immediately afterwards, he flicked his wrist, and the half-unsheathed Ninja Blade drew a line of cold silver light in the air, accurately targeting the joints of several pieces of paper trying to stick to his body.
Ding ding ding--!
Amidst the crisp collision sound, the pieces of paper that were reinforced by Chakra and were as strong as steel were crushed by this point and fell powerlessly.
His footsteps continuously stepped on the ground, and each step happened to fall on the weak point of Nagato's invisible pulling force, making those disturbances that would make ordinary Jonin's steps difficult to walk become like a breeze blowing on his face.
In the dragnet set by Yahiko, Konan, and Nagato, Senju Chen's figure was erratic and at ease. He neither attacked nor stayed away, just like a highly skilled dancer, dancing a fatal and gorgeous solo dance between the three people's attacks.
"Damn it!"
Yahiko had sweat on his forehead.
The opponent's almost playful attitude made him feel humiliated like never before. Every attack he thought was sure to hit would be resolved by the opponent in an incredible way. The opponent was like an unfathomable quagmire. No matter how much power he put in, it would only cause a circle of ripples and then be swallowed up silently.
This feeling of powerlessness is more infuriating than being crushed head-on!
"Don't underestimate us! Bastards!!"
The anger completely overwhelmed Yahiko's reason. He gave up Ninjutsu, pulled out the short knife from his waist, and poured all the Chakra in his legs into his legs. His whole body turned into an orange lightning, and stabbed straight towards Senju Chen's chest in an almost suicidal manner!
Too fast! Too reckless!
Senju Chen's eyes flashed. He had been waiting for the other party to lose his composure.
Faced with Yahiko's decisive stab, he not only did not retreat, but faced the blade and took a step forward. His body was slightly to one side, and the Thunder God Sword in his hand was like a poisonous snake coming out of its hole, coming last, first, and the handle of the knife hit Yahiko's wrist holding the knife accurately.
This is an exquisite counterattack that can instantly remove the opponent's weapon and cause bone fractures!
Yahiko's pupils shrank violently! He saw the calm indifference in the other party's eyes, and also saw his own imminent defeat!
"Yahiko!!"
A suppressed scream of extreme panic exploded from the depths of the shadow of the factory!
It's Nagato!
Seeing that his best friend was about to fall into danger, Nagato could no longer remain calm. In his right eye, which was covered by red hair, circles of mysterious purple ripples suddenly lit up, as if stars in the universe were flowing in it!
An invisible, overbearing, and irresistible force of terror, centered on Nagato, exploded!
Buzz--!!!
There is no sound, but it is better than thunder!
Senju Chen felt an overwhelming repulsive force slamming into his chest. It felt like being hit head-on by a running giant elephant, and his whole body flew backwards involuntarily!
In mid-air, a trace of surprise flashed in Senju Chen's eyes!
This pure repulsion... There is no doubt that this is the power of Rinnegan! Shinra Tensei! Although the scope and power are still immature, the essence is unmistakable!
He forcibly twisted his body in the air, plowed two deep ravines on the ground with his feet, and stepped back for more than ten meters before he could stabilize his body.
But because of this momentary pause, Yahiko, who was affected by the repulsive force and was also unstable, used this thrust to fly out the short knife in his hand, and was very close at hand!
However, at that moment Kunai, which was flashing with cold light, was about to stab Senju Chen between the eyebrows.
The figure of Senju Chen, like an afterimage, disappeared without warning.
It's not moving at high speed, it's not Body Flicker Technique, it's just disappearing into thin air.
"?!"
Yahiko and Nagato, who had just stabilized their bodies, were stunned at the same time.
The next second, a chill that was as cold as bone marrow rose from behind Yahiko.
He turned around suddenly and saw a scene that made his blood freeze.
At some point, Senju Chen appeared behind Konan.
He gently held the girl's slender waist with one hand, and the tip of his nose could even smell the faint fragrance of rain and paper mixed with the tips of her hair. In the other hand, the long knife was gently pressed against her fair and slender neck.
It smells so good... the lady's skin is so white...
Senju Chen's mind flashed with a charming thought at an inappropriate time.
The pieces of paper flying all over the sky, preparing to launch another attack, all froze in the air at this moment, and then fell down as if they had lost their lives.
The entire factory was deathly silent.
"Stop it."
Senju Chen's voice broke the frozen silence. His voice was still calm, even a little gentle, but the coldness contained in it was like an ice pick, piercing the hearts of Yahiko and Nagato.
"I told you."
He turned his head slightly, looked over Konan's shoulders, and looked at the two teenagers who were frozen in place, with that harmless smile on his face again.
"I'm not here to fight."
