Kind Uchiha

Chapter 21 21. Life and Death

The last sunset disappears in the mountains and forests, disappearing at the end of the treetops.

As night fell, the hustle and bustle faded away, but the insects chirped, and everything was never really silent.

On the valley, three figures stood quietly.

"This is the agreed place." Sai looked at the map in his hand and looked around.

"The other party probably hasn't arrived yet, just wait and see." Xin said.

Asaji leaned against the rock, twirling kunai on his fingers, as if bored.

"Feeling boring?" Xin walked over.

"No." Asahi shook his head.

"That's right, when I was at the base, it was much more boring than it is now," Xin said.

Asagi glanced at him, "Do you have something to say?"

Xin froze for a moment, shook his head and smiled wryly, "Your temper now is much different from when we first met."

Asahi was silent for a moment, then asked, "Is it getting better or worse?"

Xin obviously didn't expect him to ask such a question. After thinking about it for a while, he said, "It's not good or bad, but it might make people who don't know me feel a little difficult to get along with."

Asagi pursed his lips, he had never thought about this before.

Xin also leaned on the rock like him, "It may be that after you become quiet, you are no longer used to communicating with others, but you don't have to force it, someone will adapt to your changes, and it will still be yours. friend."

Asagi looked over, "For example, you?"

Shin smiled, and glanced at Sai who was still looking carefully at the map, "I hope you will always be friends."

"What about you?" Asahi asked.

"Don't you already know?" Xin looked at him, or rather, looked into his eyes, "In front of your eyes, what can you hide?"

Asahi's tone was low, "Is there no other way?"

Shin shook his head slightly.

Having received the acknowledgment personally, Asagi couldn't help but sigh.

Xin patted him on the shoulder instead, with a relaxed tone, "This is a process that everyone will go through, and I just said goodbye in advance, it's nothing."

"Then what will he do in the future?" Asagi looked at Sai.

"Isn't there still you?" Xin said seriously.

Asahi suddenly felt a heavy shoulder, but unusually, he didn't feel that it was entrustment or trouble.

"What are you talking about?" At this moment, Sai looked over suspiciously.

"Nothing." Xin said casually.

"Someone is coming!" Asahi interrupted the conversation between the two, his eyes were slightly concentrated, and he looked into the valley.

Sai Kazunobu didn't feel anything, but of course he trusted Asaji, he quickly left from the spot and found the best hiding place.

Soon, someone appeared in their field of vision.

"Are there any pursuers?" Sai held the tachi behind his back.

"I'll solve it," Xin said.

"Brother?" Sai frowned.

"Asaji is on a mission for the first time, and he is not familiar with ninjas." Shin said, "So Sai, you go with him to meet our people."

Saying that, he glanced at Asahi.

Do you want me to know how to kill someone?Asahi guessed Xin's good intentions.

Because it is the first time for him to perform a mission and encounter an enemy for the first time. This is different from a real battle among trained ninjas. If he is not careful, he will be injured or even killed.

Therefore, Xin is to let Asaji get used to it first, and have a psychological preparation for killing the enemy.

The next time, it will be Asaji's own solution.

"Okay." Asahi nodded.

Xin nodded, and then his eyes became firm, and he rushed towards the forest.

Asahi flew onto the tree.

Soon, there was the sound of weapons clashing in the forest.

From such a distance, Asahi could clearly see the battle scene.

Xin's opponents are several rock ninjas, wearing red combat protective gear, in a siege posture. These people are real ninjas.

This is completely different from the competition in the base. Whether it is Xin or Iwanin, there is no unnecessary movement when making a move. Every move is aimed directly at the vital point, and there will be no needless waste of chakra.

Asaji felt that even though these people were inferior to him in strength, he still benefited a lot from their confrontation.

Because this is a real battle, a life and death contest between ninjas.

He didn't feel his blood boiling, but had an unusual calmness.

Sangouyu's pupils moved from time to time following the movements of the people under the tree, completely seeing through their fight, dismantling it, deducing their next move, and immediately targeting their weaknesses.

Asaji only felt that his brain was running fast, but he didn't feel strange about all this, as if it should be like this.

On the other side, Sai had already rushed to meet the root spy, but unexpectedly, the other party hid immediately.

"Have been a spy for a long time, are you even wary of your own people?" Sai curled his lips and glanced at the movement in the forest.

There, Huo Dun has already appeared.

He was a little worried about Xin's safety, after thinking about it, he chose to support Xin.

As for the target, he didn't think much about it—the other party was already hiding anyway, so it would be a waste of time to blindly search for it in a short period of time. It would be better to deal with these chasing soldiers, and the other party would come out by then.

……

The ones chasing after him were not very strong rock ninjas. There were four or five ninjas in total, and Xin Xin had already dealt with one of them.

It was the trace of the blade cutting across the neck, splashing out warm blood, the dilated pupils gradually lost their focus, and they stretched their arms forward weakly and in vain.

This is the struggle before death, which makes people feel despair and a touch of sadness.

And this is the battle that belongs to the ninja, even in a peaceful day, it will be staged in an unknown place at a certain moment.

This is the line between life and death.

In the wind, there was a bloody smell that gradually became stronger, which made people sick.

Asagi frowned, even though he thought he could face it calmly, but when he saw a living person dying in front of him, he still felt a little uncomfortable.

In particular, I don't know if Xin did it on purpose. He wants to see the futile struggle of the person before death. Sometimes he can catch the flaw and kill him with one blow. He will also slash the opponent a few more times.

Blood splattered, and someone screamed before death.

Asagi was on the tree, couldn't hold back, tilted his head, and spat out acidic water.

After reading the letter, he wiped the blood on his cheek and smiled.

At this time, someone quietly appeared behind him, and the Kunai in his hand stabbed down suddenly.

"Secret ink shadow bondage!" Sai, who arrived in time, made seals with both hands, and from Shin's ninja bag, a ball of ink stretched out like a shadow, imprisoning the sneak attacking Iwanin in place.

"Why did you come here?" Xin asked, and killed that rock ninja with a single knife.

"I'm worried about brother." Sai lifted the ninjutsu and asked, "Where's Asaji? Didn't he help?"

"He's over there..." Xin said, pointing to the tree, but there was no sign of Asahi on the tree at this time.

"Where's the person?" Sai was taken aback.

Xin asked back: "What is the goal of the mission?"

Sai pouted, "That guy hid himself as soon as he saw me."

"Hiding?" Xin was stunned for a moment, then his face changed, "No, there are still enemies!"
