Shadow of the Wood

Chapter 150 Three Opportunities

At the critical moment, Kai Kai lowered his head and used the Konoha forehead guard tied to his forehead to resist Shikamaru's dark hand, spread Senbon, and quickly withdrew and retreated.

At this moment, Kai Kai already had the intention of retreating.

I already have a personal experience of Shikamaru's strength. The combat awareness and outstanding skills displayed by the other party at this time obviously prove that what Shimura Danzo said is true. Shikamaru's opponent.

The branches and leaves in the forest rustled, but it was a few tiger-like monsters that Shikamaru had transformed from 鶗鴃 that looked like a tiger but not a tiger, or a lion but not a lion.

Under the threat of Kai and the surrounding monsters, Shikamaru did not panic in the slightest. With a flash of his eyes, he had already put his right hand into the ninja bag. A projectile appeared in his hand and he threw it on the ground!

boom!

With a sound of explosion, thick dark purple smoke immediately filled the area around Shikamaru, covering the sight of both Shikamaru and Kaikai. It seems that the degree of trouble caused to the two is equal, but in fact it is greatly beneficial to Shikamaru!

Kai knew it was not good the first time Shikamaru took out the smoke bomb, so he quickly pulled back and tried to stay away from Shikamaru, but Shikamaru did not pursue it.

boom!boom!

After 鶗鴃 withdrew from the thick purple smoke, he heard several muffled noises in succession. With his ninjutsu induction, he already knew how many chakras were transformed by ink in the smoke at this time. The monster has been dealt with by Shikamaru.

Whoosh!

But then, before Kai Kai could make another move, a loud sound of piercing the air suddenly came from the smoke, and a huge shuriken broke through the heavy purple mist, and shot out from it with a kind of lightning. The astonishing momentum, which was about to cut Kai in half, swept across.

Kai was startled, Shikamaru's attack was so tight without giving anyone a chance to breathe, it was hard for him to imagine, under such circumstances, even if he wanted to retreat from the battle, it was just a wishful thinking.

"Exposing your back to an opponent who is no less powerful than yourself is tantamount to death!", on the first day of entering the "root", Kai's instructor once said this to him, not to mention Shikamaru before When throwing a thousand copies at the target of the eyes, it obviously shows that he has already won the essence of the war profession. Things to consider in the future—even if you think about a hundred years behind you, if you are killed by your opponent in battle, all this can only become an idiot’s ridiculous fantasy—and for the character Shikamaru has shown, how dare Kai Expose your back to him! ?

In just a short moment, thoughts kept passing through Kai's mind, but his body had reacted one step faster than his brain, and he had narrowly escaped from the blade of the giant shuriken by turning sideways.

Snapped!

After Kai dodged sideways, the giant shuriken remained undiminished, and it stabbed fiercely into a big tree behind Kai, but before Kai could breathe a sigh of relief, there was only a "bang!" There was a sound of explosions, and a puff of smoke spread from the giant shuriken. In the blink of an eye, it seemed to be made of metal, and even the giant shuriken, which reflected bursts of cold light on the blade, had changed into a hand-held " Shikamaru of "Kagehide", jumped towards Kai who was caught off guard just after dodging the shuriken.

laugh!

Kai reluctantly tilted his body to avoid the vital points in his chest, but the sharp blade of "Yingxiu" still broke through his skin without any hindrance, and penetrated into his left shoulder.

Kai Kai, who had undergone cruel elimination training, did not panic because of the injury. After discovering Shikamaru's "Kagehide" pierced his left shoulder, he seemed unaware of the pain, and his expression remained unchanged. The body leaned back, and the right hand grabbed Shikamaru's wrist holding "Yingxiu". The left hand, which seemed inflexible due to the injury to the left shoulder, rested on it weakly. Crossing his legs, he actually clamped Shikamaru's neck, and with the help of his own body and the sudden shift of the center of gravity of Shikamaru's body, he threw Shikamaru to the ground. When it comes to the ability to react in battle, he has become the best of the Chunin at a young age. It is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

At the moment when Shikamaru's neck was clamped between his legs, Shikamaru felt suffocated, and a strong force almost broke his fragile neck bone, but his reaction was extremely fast. He began to stretch out his free left hand to the ninja bag tied to his left leg, and took out a kunai from it, intending to stab Kai's legs with it.

When Kai saw Shikamaru's movement, his pupils shrank, and he pushed Shikamaru with both hands to hold "Yingxiu", and the right hand that he grabbed, regardless of this action caused "Kingxiu" to take a bloody arrow from him With a sharp shot, his legs parted quickly, and instead of pinching Shikamaru's neck, he kicked hard against Shikamaru's body, using the strength to roll backwards and widen the distance between Shikamaru and Shikamaru.

Shikamaru also rolled backwards with the help of Kai's foot, then quickly got up and half-kneeled on the ground, forming mudras with both hands, and quickly completed the chakra's channeling and nature change.

"Shadow Seam!"

Under the sparse sunlight in the forest, the invisible shadow of Shikamaru squirmed quickly under the influence of Chakra. The black shadow was close to the ground and spread for less than half a foot in the direction of Kai, and suddenly rose from the ground like a poisonous snake with its head raised. As if materialized, a few strands in the air rushed towards the figure of Kai Kai.

The front ends of these black shadows were slender and sharp, like the tip of a gun. Kai Kai was not interested in letting this trick test its power on himself, and was full of vigilance.

"Fortunately, the insertion was not deep and did not cause too much damage to the soft tissue, but the blood loss is so fast that the bleeding needs to be stopped immediately!" In just a short moment, a large amount of blood gushed out from the wound that was stabbed by Shikamaru. Blood, the thin black short jacket has been mostly wet with blood, and the experienced Kai has also obtained a lot of information from the previous movement of the left shoulder. At this time, he quickly backed away and kept thinking in his mind.

Fortunately, Shikamaru did not hurt Kaikai's right hand. At this time, he finally distanced himself from Shikamaru and could use his own ninjutsu.

鶗鴃 quickly took out a blank scroll from the ninja tool bag, and at the same time took out the matching brush, spread the scroll canvas on his left hand, after soaking the brush with ink, in just a few strokes, He quickly sketched a falcon with both form and spirit on it, which seemed to break free from the canvas and fly into the sky.

"Ninja. Super beast fake painting!"

Kai stepped back two steps, suddenly jumped up the tree trunk, came to a branch in a few jumps, avoided Shikamaru's "Shadow Gap" attack, then formed a seal with one hand, shook the canvas on the scroll in his hand, With a bang, a huge falcon covered in black and white appeared in front of Kaikai. He jumped onto the back of the falcon without hesitation, and took a serious look at Shikamaru who was still on the ground. , then controlled the falcon to quickly fly high into the sky.

Kai also had the idea of ​​killing Shikamaru by taking advantage of the air and distance in his mind, but the "Kagexiu" designed by Shikamaru himself is very vicious, even if it's just an attack that doesn't go deep into the flesh, it can kill Shikamaru. Scale to bleed the opponent, even a ninja, if he stays in this state for too long, he will die. With the state of Kai at this time, it is not certain that Shikamaru will die if it is delayed, but he will definitely die.

More importantly, the task assigned to Kai Kai by Shimura Danzo requires Shikamaru to live temporarily, at least not to die at the moment. Kai Kai's original purpose was just to test Shikamaru's strength. In fact, the original goal was achieved. In contrast, Kai Kai didn't pay much attention to his injuries.

…………

"Brother Shikamaru!"

Konoha Maru looked at Nara Shikamaru who was frowning and thinking, and after hesitating, he still let out a cry.

Kaikai who was riding a big bird had already flown away, and Shikamaru didn't give in to chase, but just watched the opponent go away, but at this moment, he was thinking about the previous battle and what the purpose of Kaikai's coming was.

After a short fight, Shikamaru was able to confirm a lot of information about Kai. His physical skills should be slightly weaker than Rock Lee, and on par with Neiji Hyuga—of course, this refers to Neiji Hyuga who has no white eyes. In addition to the white eyes, it also has a very high combat power bonus-but in terms of reaction ability, it is definitely stronger than the two people including Hinata Ningji. Undoubtedly revealed in the First World War.

Rational and ruthless, he doesn't care about the pain. He only finds time to lick the wound after a fight. This can only be cultivated by wandering between life and death many times.

Shikamaru was able to repel Kaikai without injury, and even wounded him, but it was not as easy as it seemed, at least the consumption of Chakra was not small, and the continuous series of attacks certainly made the opponent lose the opportunity to breathe. Yes, Shikamaru himself didn't have time to relax, and consumed a lot of energy.

If 鶗鴃 does not have the ability to fly, Shikamaru is very sure that he can kill the opponent, but in reality there are not so many "ifs". Before finding a way to restrain or block the ability of 鶗鴃, the opponent always has a way The ability to throw off Shikamaru's pursuit and run away during the battle makes Shikamaru, who is probably the enemy with Kaikai, very upset.

Kai suddenly came to Shikamaru’s side, it’s definitely not for no reason, and all of this is most likely related to Shimura Danzo behind Kai, the careerist in the original book, and Shikamaru himself is not the same person, It can't be said that he wants to get rid of it quickly, but he won't let go of the idea of ​​assassinating Shikamaru easily.

Shikamaru never expects to rely on the benevolence of the enemy to avoid crises, nor does he like to rely on unwarranted luck to avoid disasters. In his opinion, all opportunities should be firmly grasped in his hands, and opportunities are created by himself of!
