Chapter 67
Kakashi didn't expect Naruto to be able to catch Fenghua Xiaoxue back, but it was just right, so they didn't have to worry about the target of their protection being harmed.
After seeing the Santaifu, Fenghua Xiaoxue's eyes were full of anger, and she once again bluntly stated that she would never go to the Snow Country to shoot a movie.
Everyone tried hard to persuade her, but Fenghua Xiaoxue always thought that going to the Snow Country this time was simply seeking death. She didn't want to die, she just wanted to live a lingering life.
So no matter what, she was throwing a tantrum and didn't agree with the crew going to the Snow Country.
Kakashi secretly winked at the Santaifu, and the Santaifu nodded secretly. So, Kakashi walked up and took off his forehead mask, and used the Sharingan illusion on Fenghua Xiaoxue. Fenghua Xiaoxue fell asleep immediately, and everyone immediately packed up their luggage, and sent someone to lift Fenghua Xiaoxue onto the carriage, and hurried to the dock to gather.
Kakashi also took the time to inform Naruto of the next mission schedule. Naruto squinted at Kakashi with his dead fish eyes and asked weakly:"Can I not go?"
Kakashi responded unhappily:"No, you must go. This is what Lady Tsunade personally told you to do, and she specifically mentioned you. Don't think of using shadow clones to perfunctorily."
Naruto gave Tsunade a middle finger in his heart, and then made an excuse to Kakashi to let them go first, and he went to pack some luggage.
Unexpectedly, Kakashi reminded again:"By the way, Lady Tsunade also told you to leave more shadow clones in the mission hall. There are not enough people for the recent D-level mission, and you need help."
Naruto:(눈‸눈)
Naruto looked at the rows of street lights on the street and felt that it was necessary to hang something.
Kakashi, Sakura and Sasuke followed the crew and left for the dock. Naruto walked to the gate of the crew's current residence and glanced around.
Then, he slowly came to the trash can more than ten meters to the right of the gate. At this time, a homeless man in ragged clothes and wearing a felt hat was sitting cross-legged next to the trash can.
The brim of the felt hat blocked his face, making it unclear whether he was taking a nap at this time.
Just as the entire crew's convoy was about to disappear on this street, the homeless man slowly stood up, but at this time, Naruto also slowly came to his side.
Without waiting for the homeless man to react, Naruto grabbed the homeless man's arm, and then the Flying Thunder God was activated instantly, and the figures of the two people disappeared in the bustling street.
The next moment, Naruto and the homeless man appeared by the river where Fenghua Xiaoxue had stopped when she escaped.
The homeless man caught by Naruto also fully reacted at this time, and the next moment he was about to make a seal to fight back, so Naruto would never give him a chance.
Naruto suddenly pressed several acupuncture points on his body, and the man's chakra veins were violently cut off by Naruto, and his limbs were also broken and dislocated by Naruto, causing him to scream and fall to the ground.
Fortunately, there was no one around, and the homeless man's screams did not attract the attention of others.
However, Naruto was noisy and stepped on his mouth, which reduced his screams a lot.
After a while, the homeless man woke up from the severe pain, and a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes, and then he hurriedly looked at Naruto innocently.
Naruto released his foot that was blocking the homeless man's mouth, looked at him playfully, and said contemptuously
"Don't look at me like that. I know you were sent by Fenghua Nutao, and you want to find a chance to take away Fenghua Xiaoxue's hexagonal crystal pendant."
Although he was directly exposed by Naruto, the homeless man still pretended to be stupid in order to survive.
"You got the wrong person, I don't know whether it's Fenghua Nutao or Fenghua Xiaoxue you're talking about!"
Even without the help of Karin's Kagura's Heart Eye, Naruto could tell that this person was lying.
But it didn't matter, they were all insignificant little bastards anyway, even if Fenghua Nutao came, he would just be a passing role.
Not wanting to pay too much attention, Naruto used an ice escape to completely freeze the man, and his life ended instantly, and then used earth escape to bury the man three feet under.
After doing all this, Naruto used Flying Thunder God to go back home and get two sets of clothes to change, and by the way, he created a dozen shadow clones and asked them to go to the mission hall.
Then he took a rest by himself After recovering his chakra, he performed Flying Thunder God again and left his home to join Kakashi and the others.
When Naruto arrived, the crew was on their way to the Fire Country Pier. The crew was very rich and rented many carriages. Kakashi and they were not in the same carriage.
Therefore, Naruto's Flying Thunder God did not attract Kakashi's attention.
When the entire crew arrived at the pier, the rented merchant ship had been waiting for a long time.
Kakashi and the others had also been arranged rooms early. Naruto and Sasuke stayed in the same room as usual, so that they could enter the illusion space for training.
……
In the Land of the Sky, after Karin got the Thunder God Sword that Naruto gave her, she happily came to the surface to test the power of the new Thunder God Sword and take a walk to relieve her boredom.
After all, she had been staying underground for a long time, and she felt a little depressed.
Takemoto, the captain of the patrol team of the Land of the Sky, also followed Karin in person to protect her.
However, Karin thought he was in the way and asked him to go back, but Takemoto dared not let Karin go out alone. He only agreed on the surface, and then quietly hid in the surrounding jungle, always paying attention to Karin's safety.
Karin's Kagura heart was completely aware of Takemoto's every move, but Karin was not in the mood to care about him.
After all, she has no prestige in the Land of the Sky now. When the time is ripe, she will build her own team to assist Naruto in completely controlling the people's hearts in the Land of the Sky.
Karin first tried the power of the Thunder God Sword, and then used several newly learned water jutsu. She was not very skilled, but the power was so-so.
After all, the water jutsu she learned were all the special ninjutsu of the second generation Hokage, Senju Tobirama.
If it weren't for Naruto helping her to personally guide her in the illusion space, with her original conditions, it would be a luxury to want to learn any of the ninjutsu.
However, there are too many ninjutsu of Senju Tobirama. At present, Karin can only practice the ninjutsu with a lower threshold. When her strength grows slowly, the rest of the ninjutsu are waiting for her. After practicing for a while, she felt a little bored, knowing that Takemoto was silently guarding not far away.
Karin looked around and walked towards the village closest to the base of the Kingdom of the Sky to see if there was anything fun.
Not long after, Karin came to the small river closest to Tsuchida Village. On both sides of the river, there were some crops cultivated by the villagers.
As the autumn harvest is approaching, the corn and rice nearby are almost yellow, so it is difficult to see the villagers working in the fields.
Karin jumped to the riverside and glanced casually. She found a bamboo fishing basket near the water plants on the river bank.
Several small fish were caught in it, including the knife-shaped anchovy and yellow catfish that Karin was more familiar with.
Looking at these fish made Karin think of the time in Kusagakure Village. Whenever her mother dragged her scarred body back home, she would often bring a few of these small fish and cook a pot of delicious fish soup for her.
When she thought of her mother, Karin unconsciously fell into the painful memories of her time in Kusagakure Village. The pain at that time stimulated Karin at this time.
Because Naruto promised that he would let her take revenge on Kusagakure Village with her own hands after she became strong, Karin also wanted to become strong as soon as possible. In addition to revenge, she also wanted to share Naruto's future career.
Looking at the flowing stream, Karin gathered her chakra at her feet and stepped lightly on the water.
Before that, or to be more precise, before the Chunin Exam, Karin knew almost no other ninjutsu except the basic three-body technique, not to mention controlling chakra, climbing trees on foot, and treading water.
It was not until she was rescued by Naruto's shadow clone in the second level of the Death Forest that she began to practice orthodox ninjutsu at Sasuke's house.
Then, in order to improve Karin's strength faster, Naruto also let Karin enter his own illusion space, where Karin quickly mastered climbing trees and treading water.
Since the simulated environment in the illusion space is almost absolutely real, even though Karin has never walked or rushed on the river in reality, it does not affect her proficiency at this moment.
While stepping on the water, Karin skillfully pinched her hand seals and fired two water bullets, which immediately caused a lot of waves on the calm river surface.
Tap, tap, tap - a series of hurried footsteps came from far away, and soon a thin figure came to the river bank.
When the person saw Xianglin on the river, he was shocked and asked hesitantly:"Who are you? How can you stand on the water?"
Xianglin heard this and turned around to look at the girl in front of him.
She was wearing a rough linen dress and carrying a simple bamboo basket on her back. Her skin was slightly dark and wheat-colored, her figure was thin, and her cheeks were slightly dry. It was obvious that she was malnourished. Looking more closely, the girl actually had red hair, but it was covered by a���The red headscarf was wrapped around her forehead, making her red hair look a little fluffy.
"Are you a villager here?
"Yes, who are you?" The girl came back to her senses from her panic, and suddenly cried out"Aiya", and quickly fell to the water grass on the shore,"I just put out the fish basket this morning, I don't know if the fish inside were scared away!"
After complaining, the girl skillfully grabbed a straw rope and pulled it up with force.
"Crash!"
"Wow, there are so many fish. I didn’t expect to be so lucky today. I haven’t caught so many fish at once in a long time. I can have several delicious meals!"
Karin looked at the girl in front of her who seemed to be the same age as her. Perhaps because of her red hair, Karin had an inexplicable liking for her.
Then, Karin walked slowly to the river bank and greeted the skinny red-haired girl:"Hello, my name is Karin. I am a ninja. I happened to pass by here. I didn’t expect to disturb the people here."
"Ninja?" The girl was a little surprised."I heard Uncle Nishimoto mention it. He said that ninjas have bad tempers and are very difficult to get along with. But you give me a different feeling."
Xianglin smiled shyly:"Is that so? Maybe the ninja that Uncle Nishimoto met in your words is not of good character. After all, ninjas are also human beings, and there are good and bad ones."
"That's right." The girl nodded in understanding,"By the way, my name is Yu Liu, and I'm a villager from Tsuchida Village here."
"Yu Liu?"Xiang Lin pondered for a moment, raised her head and smiled,"I have made a new friend today. I have something else to do, so I won't bother you anymore."
After that, Xiang Lin waved goodbye to Yu Liu, jumped to the other side of the river and disappeared into the woods.
Yu Liu looked at Xiang Lin who disappeared in a flash, and didn't understand why. However, she felt the weight of the fish basket in her hand, and her heart was suddenly filled with joy.
