Konoha Thief

Chapter 35
"Damn!"

Masashi Sarutobi gritted his teeth and cursed, but he couldn't change the situation in front of him.

"Fire Escape Fire Bomb!"

He shot angrily, and the scorching flame blasted towards the enemy blocking him.

"Wind Escape·Chaos Blade Slash Dance!"

The enemy Chunin did not flinch, and released a blow of wind escape technique with fine wind blades to resist. Seeing the flames fluttering and scattered, but the power was still there, another Chunin made up a wind escape in time, blowing it out completely.

"Captain Sarutobi, what should we do!"

The Chunin leader of another team asked anxiously.

However, it is obvious that Masashi Sarutobi is also very irritable. It is not because of his wrong decision-making or lack of ability that caused the current situation. Jonin!
In any ninja village, the ninjas of the Jōnin level are the mainstay. Now that Konoha is preparing for the decisive battle with Sand Yin, the ninjas of the Jōnin level are rushing to that battlefield. So when he saw that there were five jonin in the enemy, he was extremely shocked, and many thoughts subconsciously emerged in his mind.

"Get ready to meet the enemy! Just hold on, our companions will be here soon!"

Masashi Sarutobi shouted loudly, boosting morale.

Other than that, he has no other choice, even when the enemy jounin arrives, it is unknown whether he can survive!

What makes him desperate is the will of fire. As the captain of the garrison, he shoulders heavier missions and responsibilities than others, and he will die for it!
"Yes!!"

The ninjas led by the subordinates responded in unison, and a heroic aura emanated from it. There were not many people, and the voice was not high-pitched, but it was particularly shocking!

Xia Shu was in it, and when he heard the voice of drinking, his heart trembled inexplicably, but this could not completely eliminate his pessimism about the current situation.

However, since he is already in this situation, there is no need to fantasize about getting out easily. He is not the kind of person who escapes from reality and fears dangers.

With the determination in his heart, Xia Shu's immature face turned indifferent, and he manipulated the black rope lightly with five fingers, and the remaining chakra was poured into it, making it have the sharp nature of the wind attribute, adding more puppet power. The power of eight legs.

At the same time, he has also explored some skills in manipulating the puppet, at least he has been able to rotate it, turning the puppet into an untouchable 'hedgehog' like the previous puppet master Chunin!
It's just that under the order of the thin high ninja, the enemies of more than ten teams did not intend to be aggressive. Instead, they formed a front to prevent Sarutobi Shinobi, the Jonin, from taking the lead in charging and breaking through.

When the puppet is controlled to attack, the enemy will immediately dodge. After the puppet attacked, they quickly regrouped, making Xia Shu feel like he was punching cotton hard.

"Follow my pace!"

Masashi Sarutobi's low voice came, and Natsuki was immediately surrounded by sprints diagonally, which was obviously a flanking surprise attack!
"Stop them!"

Thin high school ninja also saw through this and roared loudly.

It wasn't too late for him to discover this, but it took time to convey the command's order, and Masashi Sarutobi moved quickly, so the situation changed from offensive and defensive to racing!
Whoever is faster will be able to achieve the goal, whether to intercept or break through, suddenly a contest begins!
Before this, Xia Shu never thought that this kind of situation would appear in the battle of ninjas, which was completely different from the impression he had in his previous life. However, since he was in it, there is obviously no need to question it, maybe this is the real thing World, the real ninja world!
Under the leadership of Sarutobi Masashi, the crowd rushed like the wind, the grass was overwhelmed by the strong wind that passed by, and the screams of sharp weapons colliding and blocking continued.

That was the enemy's obstruction, but from this point of view, it seemed that it was already too late.

"Idiots! They're all idiots!"

Slender High School couldn't help tearing his eyes, seeing that the enemy was about to leave the line, he couldn't help thinking of Sano-sama's more frightening means than his cold face...

"Let's go! I'm coming to the Queen!"

At the same time, out of the range covered by the enemy's front line, the urgency in Sarutobi Masashi's heart eased slightly, and he shouted.

"Captain Sarutobi!..."

"No need to talk nonsense, if I'm the only one, maybe I can still escape, you wait to meet the companions who came to support, and then turn back and help me!"

Masashi Sarutobi's words were decisive, but not lacking in reason. Under such powerful persuasion or orders, the mediocre-looking Chunin and the other Chunin both hesitated for a moment and nodded in response.

"Yes!"

"Captain Sarutobi, we will be back soon!"

The two Chunin gritted their teeth and made a decision. After saying aloud, they led their subordinates to evacuate.

Natsuki and Kuno Kuroyu are also among them.

"Xia Shu, we..."

Kuno Heiyu looked back hesitantly, and looked sideways at the young man beside him, hesitating to speak.

The young man squinted and said lightly: "Don't become a burden anymore."

After the words fell, Kuno Heiyu's expression darkened, but he remembered the previous events.

After being silent for a while, Sarutobi Zhenshi shouted and released a strong fire wave that had already reached the time, Kuno Kuroyu suddenly said: "Sorry, Natsuki, I won't be stupid again!"

After saying this, Kuno Heiyu's eyes gleamed, and his immature face, which frowned slightly, was full of determination.

"Ah."

Xia Shu only responded softly to this, and besides that, he didn't know how to respond.

This understated response encouraged Kuno Kuroyu. Perhaps for him, even if it wasn't words of encouragement, it could make him more determined.

But, stop being stupid?Is this something that can be done just by talking about it?

"We must hurry!"

The mediocre Chunin suddenly looked back, frowning with hesitation and inquiry.

Xia Shu was stunned for a moment, then realized clearly, and nodded lightly.

In fact, the other party is not asking, and at the same time, it is not everyone who must hurry up.

The speed of Chunin is faster than that of Genin. This is a fact. At this moment, every second counts.

Xia Shu has no hesitation about this, after all even if he objected, it would be of no avail, on the contrary, it would provoke disgust.

The two Chunin immediately left the team and ran towards the distance. This did not affect Natsuki and the other junior ninjas much. Sarutobi Masashi is very strong, and he blocked it with the attacks of Earth Dun and Fire Dunn. The enemy, so at this moment they are considered out of danger, and then they only need to wait for the support to arrive.

Looking sideways at the back, Xia Shu couldn't help but feel exhausted. Maybe he should take a rest for a few days after this incident. A combination of work and rest is the right way.

At this moment, the enemy Jonin finally joined the other teams!
