Shadow of the Wood

Chapter 140 Estimate

Neiji Hyuga kept scanning the surrounding environment with his white eyes, and while avoiding Gaara's pursuit with Shikamaru, he paid more attention to whether there were any enemies appearing, and then bypassed each other safely.

Or Gaara's remaining sanity made him understand that using Shukaku's full power would not do him any good at all, and that Shikamaru would deliberately slow down from time to time, so that Gaara would be more sensitive to him and Neiji Hinata. The attack gave Gaara the illusion that he would be able to catch up with Shikamaru and Neiji Hinata immediately. Because of this, this pursuit has been going on for a while. Fortunately, the flames of war have been ignited in Konoha Village at this time. There were explosions and shouts during the fighting. Although Gaara passed along the way, although it would cause some damage, it did not attract too many people's attention.

Just as Shikamaru and Hinata Neji were running away under the pursuit of Gaara, a loud noise suddenly came from a distance, like an earthquake erupting, and the surrounding houses even groaned, and the windows kept trembling and vibrating. .

Shikamaru leaned on the wall, barely stabilized his body, and then his heart moved, and he quickly asked some Hinata Neji who were also in shock beside him: "What's going on!?"

Neiji Hyuga heard the same doubts in his heart, and quickly used his white eyes to look into the distance. After observing for a while, his pupils suddenly shrank rapidly, and he frowned and said to himself: "What a huge chakra!"

Hyuga Neiji took a closer look, and then said to Shikamaru with a look of shock on his face: "About 1000 meters in front of us, there seems to be an extremely huge three-headed snake fighting with a frog of the same size. .”

"The frog and the snake are really too big!" Neji Hinata added: "The vibration and noise just now seem to be made by these two monsters fighting."

Shikamaru was slightly startled when he heard Neiji Hinata's words, but he reacted immediately, secretly happy in his heart, and quickly said to Neiji Hinata: "The two of us go there quickly!"

Hinata Neiji saw Gaara attacking again behind him, flying across from a distance like a fired shell, and quickly dodged with Shikamaru, ran towards the direction where the giant frog and giant snake were, and at the same time asked Shikamaru aloud : "Why did we go there!?"

"That's a psychic beast." Shikamaru replied to Ningji Hinata without looking back: "These two giant beasts are fighting, which means that one side must be standing in Konoha Village, and can sign a contract with this giant beast." To write a psychic contract and to summon such a giant beast in battle must be a powerful ninja."

"He should be able to help us get rid of Gaara," Shikamaru continued.

Neiji Hyuga heard the words, and after thinking for a while, he nodded in agreement. If there is really a powerful Jōnin, he should be more capable of dealing with Gaara than the two Jōnin.

After a while, Shikamaru, who was paying attention to Gaara's attack and avoiding Sand Ninja and Otonin along the way, finally saw the huge figures of two fighting monsters, a huge frog that should have been summoned by Jiraiya With two knives on his back, he was confronting a gigantic snake with three heads.

And far away from the two giant beasts, there are still many ninjas fighting, and the sound of fighting can be heard endlessly.

Seeing this, Shikamaru and Hinata Ningji couldn't help speeding up their pace. Gaara behind them had already worn away their remaining patience during the long pursuit, and became more and more violent. If he suddenly It is not unusual for Shikamaru to transform Shukaku into a complete body.

Hibiki Morino, who was standing in a tall construction company, looked very eye-catching. His dark windbreaker was grinning in the wind, and his scarred face had an awe-inspiring expression. He was not with his companions at this time. The reason for going down to fight is very simple. His task is to assign tasks and command Konoha ninjas to fight. He is not known for his combat ability. On the contrary, interrogation and command are his strengths. His combat power alone has no effect on the overall situation. However, when he calmly observed the enemy's formation to find out the weak points, he instructed the Konoha Ninja to attack their weak points, but he achieved great results for Konoha.

At this moment, Konoha's ninjas have gained the upper hand, killing the sand ninja brigade, and being divided into several small teams to resist surrounded by Konoha's ninjas. The outcome of this battlefield is a foregone conclusion—from now on Looking at the momentum.

But when Nara Shikamaru and Hinata Neiji came to the field with Gaara, who was clearly abnormal at a glance behind him, Morino Ihiki's glacier-like expression finally collapsed, replaced by stunned.

Shikamaru also had a look of astonishment on his face, he had never seen Jiraiya with his own eyes, but judging from the image in the original work, it is not difficult to recognize, and with Jiraiya's strength, if he joins the Jiraiya at this time This battlefield must be invincible and extremely conspicuous, but when Shikamaru looked around and quickly took the battlefield situation into his eyes, he did not find the elder with long white hair and wearing red clogs.

"I am followed by the humanoid weapon of Hidden Sand Village, and I must lead him out of the village!" Shikamaru's thoughts turned, combined with the situation in the field, he kept thinking, and at the same time, he compared Morinoi who was looking at him and Neiji Hyuga Xi roared.

Although Jiraiya is here beyond Shikamaru's expectations, it doesn't make him helpless. After all, he has prepared many hole cards in order to deal with Gaara, and he hasn't revealed them all yet. He still has a chance to win other side.

Some people will tremble and feel helpless in the face of a dangerous situation, while some people will often arouse their deeper potential because of this. Shikamaru obviously belongs to the latter. After discovering the situation on the scene, he has already thought about the plan quickly.

Although Jiraiya is not around, there is always a giant frog that can be used as a helper. The three-headed giant snake is very fierce, but it is obviously not the opponent of the giant frog. In this short moment, accompanied by a loud noise, the two monsters* intersected , the giant snake has already had one head chopped off.

As for the other Konoha ninjas, it is obvious that they cannot help Shikamaru at this time. Konoha already has the upper hand in the field, but he does not have an absolute advantage, and cannot dispatch more manpower, otherwise the battle situation may be reversed by Sand Ninja. One or two people may not be enough, after all, they are different from Shikamaru, they are prepared and relied on for this situation.

"Inchuriki!?" Morino Ibiki heard Shikamaru's words. After seeing the image of Gaara, his eyes flashed, and his brows were deeply frowned. At this time, Gaara has not completely turned into a tailed beast. Become a complete body, not to mention that the battle situation on the scene will be reversed, and the surrounding Konoha buildings will also be destroyed, causing immeasurable losses.
