Konoha: This ninja is suspicious by nature

Chapter 99 The Battle Begins

The demonic scream made Sasuke terrified. He quickly took out his left hand but found that it was stuck in the hole of the sand mask. He had to gather chakra again and pulled it out.

A trace of blood flew into the blue sky as he pulled out his arm, and a huge sandy hand suddenly stretched out from the dark hole, growing longer and grabbing Sasuke.

He quickly retreated and narrowly escaped, and found that this hand was different from the previous sand hands, more like the hands of a living monster.

The monster's hand stretched back to the hole, and Sasuke looked curiously into the dark opening.

An eye slowly emerged from the entrance of the hole, with diamond-shaped dark yellow pupils, full of bloodthirsty and terrifying aura like a beast, Sasuke felt his heart was taken away by just one glance, and his body trembled uncontrollably.

Genjian on the side bit the Senbon Fudo beside his mouth and felt something strange, as if a mysterious and dangerous aura was spreading.

Hexin stood across the railing and looked up at the white feathers falling under the bright sunny sky. The spectators in the stands gradually fell into a peaceful and deep sleep. He murmured: "Illusion?"

"Woof woof woof!" Akamaru in the west stand was restless and barked at an ANBU member in the aisle behind his seat. Kiba became alert. Akamaru told him that the man was a player who had appeared in the qualifiers.

That ANBU member was Kabuto in disguise, and the illusion that made everyone fall asleep was the Nirvana Jingshe technique he performed.

At the same time, there was only a loud "bang" sound, and a cloud-piercing arrow streaked across the sky on the northern building, and a large smoke instantly enveloped the high platform of the north building.

"That's where Hokage-sama is!" Konoha and several members of Anbe immediately flew forward upon hearing the sound.

The third generation had already noticed that the illusion in the conference hall was just an ordinary illusion with a large range and low power. He calmly turned his head to look at Kazekage, and the smoke signal was emitted by the Kazekage guards next to him.

The situation was unclear due to the smoke, and Lei Ting stood in front of the third generation like a formidable enemy. Several kunai flew out and caught him off guard, and then his limbs were pinned to the wall by kunai.

Kazekage swooped forward and hugged Sandai, then pressed a kunai on his neck, "Come with me."

He held Sandai hostage and jumped to the roof of the building. The lurking sound ninja who got the signal slowly appeared. Their purpose was to kill the Konoha ninja present.

The incident that happened in front of them caught everyone who had not fallen into the genjutsu unprepared, but Hexin remained calm and composed. Upon seeing this, he immediately said to Temari: "Take Gaara and leave Konoha immediately, the further away the better!"

Temari jumped directly to the center of the arena without saying a word. Also leaving the arena at the same time as her was Kankuro, who also received Maki's instructions.

"Crack, click, click." The sand cover in the center of the field shattered like an egg shell. Gaara held his bleeding left shoulder, like a wounded beast licking his wounds.

Temari and Kankuro nodded to each other, picked up the injured Gaara and fled the venue, heading towards the virgin forest outside Konoha Village.

Paying attention to the direction in which Gaara disappeared, he turned to Shino and said: "Sunagakure is one of our own, follow Gaara and make sure to keep him away from Konoha."

Then he flew to the east stand to join Kakashi and Kai. On the way, a sound nin suddenly jumped out and attacked, but he cut him off with a knife.Then he jumped on the east side railing and shouted:

"Konoha ninja! Follow me and kill the sound ninja!"

The sound spread throughout the venue, and the ninjas who had not fallen into genjutsu, such as Yamashiro Aoba, Kozitetsu, Kamizuki Izumo, etc. who were hiding in the auditorium, also actively responded to the enemy and started killing the sound ninjas who came forward.

Maji in the northwest stand raised his arms and shouted in response, "The ninjas of Sunagakure listen to my orders and kill the sound ninja together with Konoha!" Kabuto, who was hiding at the top of the stairs, heard Maji's words, and his expression changed drastically, "This and The plan is different!”

Kakashi and Gai had already been alerted and discovered the hiding places of some lurking sound ninjas. Soon the two started taking action, traveling around the venue from east to west, north and south, killing sound ninjas one after another.

"Sasuke, the game is over, and the defense of Konoha begins now." Genma said calmly, "Based on the form, I can tell that Sunagakure is with us, but you must have noticed the terrifying aura on Gaara just now, right? Keep up with them and monitor them."

After Genma said that, he devoted himself to the action of killing the sound ninja. After hearing this, Sasuke, who looked confused, also followed Gaara and the others and chased after them.

On the east side of the stands, Sakura was one of the few genin who had not been hit by a genjutsu. She was stunned for a moment when she saw the sudden attack in front of her, and it was not until he came to comfort her that she recovered.

"Sakura, wake up Naruto and Shikamaru. You also saw that Sasuke is chasing Gaara and the others. If you follow them, you must protect both Gaara and Sasuke."

Hexin leaned over and said.

"What do you mean?" Sakura couldn't understand.

"Do as you are told." Kakashi stabbed a sound ninja to death with a kunai, then came closer, and then channeled a khaki pug with a ninja forehead protector.

"His name is Parker. He is good at tracking and can lead you to find Sasuke and Gaara."

Sakura nodded mechanically, came to Naruto and Shikamaru, and used chakra to help them dispel the illusion. However, she found that Shikamaru was not affected by the illusion at all, and black lines appeared on her forehead, "Pretend to be real. "

"What's going on here?" Naruto woke up dizzy, and there seemed to be a lot of people jumping around in the auditorium in front of him.

"Shikamaru, Naruto, Sakura, and Parker, the four of you, with Shikamaru as the captain, will perform an S-class mission. Follow Sasuke and Gaara, and protect them from the Sound Ninja."

Be careful to be concise and decisive.

He had never seen a trace of Kabuto, and he was afraid that Orochimaru would let Kabuto take Sasuke away when his plan failed, and then let Gaara go berserk. He could only let Shikamaru's team go up first, and Shino would secretly take care of him.

When Naruto heard that it was a high-level mission, he immediately enthusiastically pulled the reluctant Shikamaru and left the venue with Parker and Sakura.

The battle was still going on. The few sound ninjas suffered heavy losses under the attack of Konoha and Sunagakure. They changed their previous aggressive attitude and hid in the auditorium pretending to be dead, waiting for the other party to not pay attention before jumping out to harass them. attack.

Kiba and Hinata in the west stand were not affected by the genjutsu, but Hinata was still injured, so Kiba could only stand by, otherwise he would not want to fight those sound ninjas.

A shuriken was shot suddenly, and Akamaru noticed it early and bit it with a yell. An Otonin jumped out of the auditorium holding a kunai, and was about to kill Hinata.

A knife swiped across the neck of the sound ninja, and Kosuke, holding a long sword, appeared behind Kiba's seat, and then kicked the sound ninja's body away.

"Thank you." Hinata and Kiba quickly thanked them.

"Haha, you are all attentive friends, right? I am his grandfather, just stay well and leave it to me." Gu Jie smiled honestly.
