In an unnamed forest in the Land of Fire

"Jiang Liu, if we keep going at this speed, we might have to sleep in the woods by dark."

Xi Ri Hong glanced at Jiang Liu, who was walking slowly, with a helpless look on her face.

She didn't mind spending the night in the forest, but she felt that it would take too much time.

""Wait a minute, there's someone ahead." Jiang Liu made a hushing gesture.

He didn't walk so slowly on purpose, but he had heard a strange sound not long ago. He was also a little puzzled, thinking it was the sound of some small animals, but as the distance got closer, he found that it seemed more like the sound of a shovel digging the soil!

How could someone come here to dig the soil? Could it be a treasure???

……

"Hmm?? Where is the person???"

Xihihong rubbed her head. She didn't hear any sound.

"Believe me, there must be someone ahead."Jiang Liu whispered again. Anyone who appeared in this place at this time must not be an ordinary person.

Because ordinary people would definitely not choose to cross this forest, after all, there are still many wild animals here.

……

Xirihong was stunned for a moment.

But seeing Jiang Liu's serious expression, she didn't ask any more questions.

The two walked for a while.

Gradually, Xirihong also heard the sound.

"Russ~

What is this?"

Xirihong looked at Jiang Liu in surprise.

Could it be that someone was...??

……

Just when the two were about to cross a bush.

Yuhi Kurenai suddenly stopped Jiang Liu and said,"Wait here for a while. What if there are ninjas from the enemy country ahead? I'll go check out the situation first."

She was worried that if she met a stronger ninja, she might not be able to distract herself to protect Jiang Liu, so she decided to go and get some information herself.

When Jiang Liu subconsciously prepared to refuse,

Yuhi Kurenai said again,"Don't worry, I will protect you."

After that, she left Jiang Liu, who was confused, to carefully cross the bushes alone.

Jiang Liu felt a little funny in his heart. He didn't know much about Yuhi Kurenai's combat power.

But seeing that the other party cared so much about him, he decided to go over later.

After all, as a senior ninja, the other party would not be killed in one blow.

Logically speaking, there are no particularly powerful people who will appear here at this time!

……

As Yuhi Kurenai walked through the bushes, the scene in front of her instantly put her on alert.

She saw a man in a kimono placing a freshly dug corpse in the middle of a carved pattern.

It seemed like he was performing some kind of ritual.

""Who are you and what are you doing here?" Xi Ri Hong asked sternly.

The back of this person gave her a very familiar feeling, but she couldn't remember who it was for a moment!

……

The figure in front of him was stunned for a moment, then slowly turned around.

"Haha, isn’t this Sunset Red?"

"Long time no see."

Orochimaru looked at the woman in front of him, with a cold smile on his face.

He was practicing a ninjutsu called Impure World Reincarnation.

This ninjutsu can summon the souls of long-dead ninjas back to the world and revive them in the form of entities.

……

Orochimaru??

Kurenai Yuhi recognized the man in front of her at a glance!

That was the rebel ninja of Konoha, Orochimaru, and the man who almost became Hokage! One can imagine how strong the other party is!

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but get a little nervous.

She didn't expect to meet Orochimaru in such a place.

But at this time, she was not worried about her own safety, but thought of Jiang Liu.

If it was an ordinary ninja, maybe she could still deal with it.

But facing Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas, it was obviously not enough.

"Haha, where are you going?" Orochimaru's cold smile remained, and his tone was chilling.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he had already started to kill.

""Orochimaru, where I go is none of your business. This is the Land of Fire. I advise you to leave here quickly, or else someone will come and you won't be able to escape!" said Kurenai with a serious expression. It would be great if Orochimaru could leave at this time.

However, Orochimaru obviously did not act according to Kurenai's script.

He spat out his tongue and then said:

""If I just kill you, no one will know I'm here, right?"

His tone at this moment was filled with endless murderous intent.

As he finished this sentence, the atmosphere on the scene began to become a little solemn.

A battle seemed to be about to begin.

Swish!

At this moment.

There was a rustling sound from the bushes next to him.

Orochimaru stopped raising his hand halfway.

He looked over with some confusion!

Eh??

Is there someone else?

But it's better this way, it won't be too troublesome to deal with them together!

He couldn't help but think to himself

……

Yuhi Kurenai looked at the bushes beside her, her heart full of regret. She knew without thinking that it was Jiang Liu who came!

At this moment, she regretted letting Jiang Liu follow her out.

If she hadn't asked Jiang Liu to follow, he wouldn't have been in such danger.

For someone who has just been promoted to Chunin, facing an opponent like Orochimaru, he would definitely be killed in one move.

Thinking of this, her eyes revealed a hint of determination.

Yes!

She was ready to use her life in exchange for Jiang Liu's chance to escape. Although she might not be able to escape, as long as there was a glimmer of hope, she was willing to give it a try!
