Konoha Thief

Chapter 23 From Sand Hidden
Hidden weapon, darkness is the key.

Swiftness is important, but hitting the target is the goal.

In the world of ninjas, Kunai also exists as a flying prop, but in fact it is more like a ninja's hand-lined weapon.

Chakra makes ninjas far more intelligent than ordinary people, and even the slightest sound of the wind can hardly hide from their keen perception. Unlike the joke that the fire escape ninjutsu can't kill people, under normal circumstances, except for inexperienced ninjas, it is true that they can't be killed human.

The arc-shaped trajectory Kunai at this moment is to amplify the subtle sound of the wind, so it seems to make it more difficult for it to be effective.

But among the five human senses, vision comes first.

People say that what they see may not be true, but it is enough to confuse many people. This is the case with the Genin who followed the sound and turned his head. The wind still came, but there was only a big tree in sight.

One leaf blinds the eyes, and the confusion of perception creates cruel consequences.

puff!

Suddenly appeared behind the tree of nowhere, the sharp cold light made Xia Ren's eyes constrict, and then he was pierced.

"Uh……"

The cry stopped abruptly, the black rope danced silently, wrapped it tightly with swish, swish, and then pulled it into the grass.

This is what the shadow clone is doing.

Xia Shu looked away, then secretly poked and groped to approach the next one.

It was still the same routine as before, but the sequence was reversed a bit, the black rope passed through the bushes without a sound, suddenly burst up and entangled the prey, and then a kunai was thrown, tearing its throat, raising its head and shooting blood, He was dragged by the shadow clone and thrown into the grass.

In the same way, Natsuki became more cautious when he dealt with the third ninja on the outermost side without arousing any attention.

Observing along the way, there are eleven enemies in total. Except for the three Chunin and Jonin who besieged Maruxing Kosuke, he has already eliminated three of the remaining eight, and now there are five remaining.

Hiding in the grass, Xia Shu silently analyzed, frowning slightly.

At this moment, the remaining five enemies were three on the left and two on the right. What made him frown was the three on the front left, not only because of the large number of them, but also because these three were gathered together, vaguely belonging to a small team.

"So, isn't it a rebel or a wandering ninja?"

While hesitating in trouble, Xia Shu secretly speculated about the attack.

Regardless of past life or present life, it was not in his character to be hesitant, so he made a decision right away.

However, in fact, this is not an easy choice to make.

Compared with the three gathered together, the two on the right are relatively scattered. If the previous strategy is followed, there is a half probability that they can be resolved without causing too much commotion.

Conversely, if you attack the three gathered first, even if you have the advantage of a sneak attack, you may not be able to solve them all in a short time, and even the movement caused will definitely attract the attention of the two ninjas on the right. will fall into a greater crisis.

However, Xia Shu still decided to abandon the relatively easy to solve and scattered two on the right, and instead deal with the other three gathered!

The battle just now made Xia Shu have a precise understanding of his own strength. He inserted the ninja knife back into its sheath, and then made seals with both hands.

"Magic · Art in the heart of the fox!"

The only mastered illusion is launched, and the spiritual force guides it to be placed in the middle of the two waves of enemies on the left and right. This illusion, which is similar to ghost hitting the wall, only has the effect of dragging the enemy, so it is quite appropriate to use it at this moment.

After setting up the illusion, Natsuki immediately approached the three ninjas, with the black rope in his hand, and the ninja knife upside down.

At the same time, the shadow clone is also moving, detouring far and wide, forming horns with the main body.

The fierce battle between Kosuke Maruhoshi and the three enemies also attracted everyone's attention, which made Natsuki's concealment successful.

The shadow clone leaned sideways beside the tree, revealing a small half of his body. He waved his hand and released the black rope. With five fingers flicking vigorously, Shi controlled the black rope to shuttle through the shallow grass.

Because the attention was attracted by the fierce battle, the shadow clone's behavior was extremely smooth, and then without hesitation, it suddenly grabbed the wrist with its backhand and trembled rapidly.

Then the almost invisible black rope suddenly grabbed one of the trio, the shadow clone looked as usual, unmoved, when the other party noticed it just now, it suddenly pulled and dragged it over.

"Yibu!"

The other two of the trio exclaimed, and when they realized it, they wanted to catch up.

At this moment, Xia Shu controlled the black rope and suddenly grabbed the one who was behind. This time, it was no longer to distract the other party's attention, so he didn't hold back.

The wind attribute chakra that enhances the sharpness of the steel wire black rope is poured into it. At this moment, the protrusion is not for winding, but for strangling!

Swish swish!
The scattered black ropes curled quickly, entangled the lagging enemy in the blink of an eye, the corners of Xia Shu's mouth curled slightly, a look of coldness flashed in his eyes, and his index finger suddenly raised.

Boom! ~

A faint trembling sound swayed from the black rope, if it triggers the lead wire of the trap, it immediately makes the black rope go into a fit.

Chi Chi Chi! ~

Every inch of the black rope seemed to be turned into a steel knife, cutting off the flesh and blood cruelly.

Before the screams could be heard, their lives had already been harvested.

The three of them were reduced to two, and the only one left was suddenly disorganized, his feet became weak and he looked around, only to feel that enemies might appear no matter where they were.

At the same time, the howling of the so-called Yibukixia Ninja attracted attention. First, Kosuke Maruhoshi was in a fierce battle situation.

In the battle group, a Chunin heard the sound and was distracted. The attack that should have been supplemented by him was slow. At this moment, Maruhoshi Kosuke seized the opportunity and suddenly turned sideways to block the attack with the iron pot on his back. , and took advantage of the situation to break through the interception of the Junin who seemed to be hiding something, and swung a knife to take the distracted Junin.

"careful!"

The other Chunin stared and shouted.

The jounin frowned and hesitated for a moment, but his body didn't move, and suddenly raised his hand in a grimace with a sullen face, which was similar to Natsuki controlling the black rope.

It's just that compared with Natsuki's black rope, this Jōnin's method is obviously more agile, but this also exposes his identity.

The cold light came suddenly, fast and fast, Kosuke Maruyoshi sensed the danger intuitively, frowned and hesitated for a moment, then slashed out with the knife sideways.

when!
The clash of sharp weapons created a clear and clear voice.

Kosuke Maruyoshi's pupils constricted, and he quickly withdrew his sword, only to see that Kunai, who was supposed to be knocked into the air, turned back like a poisonous snake, drawing a strange arc in the air!

With another bang, Maruyoshi Kosuke kicked away the Chunin who came back to attack him, and quickly retreated.

Standing still, his squinted eyes opened slightly, looking at the ugly Jonin with a solemn look.

"Do shuriken? No, that's the chakra line, puppeteer? Are you from Sand Hidden?"

Concerned about his speculation, that Jōnin turned pale and shouted coldly: "Kill!!"

In addition, the other two ninjas who were attracted by Yi Chuu's shouting, they only hesitated for a moment, then rushed towards the sound, and naturally, they ran into the illusion range of the fox's heart art.
