The King of Shadows

Chapter 38
Deep in the woods, there is silence.

The beheading knife was inserted obliquely at the side, and the masked young man knelt down, first took out the ninja tool bag that he carried with him, then slowly spread it out, and took out the ninja tool scissors inside.

"Cut the mask first... let him spit out the blood..."

Holding the ninja scissors in his left hand, he approached Zabuzhe's face, carefully touching his cheek, intending to cut off the piece of cloth covering the entire mouth.

"No need..."

At this moment, Zai Buzhan opened his eyes suddenly, grabbed the opponent's hand with his right hand, and pulled away the mask with his left hand: "It's better... I will do it myself!"

"Really, you've come back to life..."

Although the mask covered the entire face, the faint smile could still be felt.

puff.

While pulling out the flying needle on his neck, he complained: "What are you doing, you hit so hard..."

"what!"

The young man was taken aback by Zabucho's rough action, and couldn't help frowning: "Mr. Zabucho, you will really die if you do this!"

Zai Buchou turned over and sat up, pointed at his mask and said, "How long are you going to wear that deceptive thing! Take it off quickly!"

"I used to wear this..." The young man slowly extended his white right hand towards the mask: "It just happened to work, so..."

The mask was completely removed, revealing a face comparable to that of a beautiful girl!
He lowered his head slightly and whispered: "If I don't make a move, you will die!"

"But you don't have to pierce the acupuncture points on the neck... Wouldn't pricking the body also allow me to fake death, and it's safer..."

Zabu Zhan put on the mask again: "You... are still so... annoying!"

"No way!" The beautiful young man smiled like a flower: "Who told me not to leave any scars on Mr. Zabuzhan's perfect body... Besides, there are no muscles in the neck, so it is easy to hit."

Zai Buzhan stood up slowly: "I'm afraid I won't be able to move for a week, right?"

The boy squinted his eyes and smiled: "For Mr. Zai Bu Zhan, he will definitely be able to move soon."

"I really can't do anything about you... You are always so pure, kind, and spotless..." Faced with this young man, Zai Bu Zhan actually showed a smile: "That's what I like about you."

"Hehe..." The boy showed a beautiful smile again: "Because I haven't grown up yet!"

He turned his head and looked around, and said: "As we talk, the fog will clear up, next time... surely it will work?"

The boy waited expectantly for him to be killed again.

"Next time..." Zabuzhan raised his eyes gloomyly: "I've already seen through Sharingan!"

...

Dazna's house.

Kakashi, who was lying on the couch, suddenly opened his right eye.

"Ah ah!"

A crowd turned on their backs, Naruto and Sakura fell to the ground in fright, Sasuke who was standing on one side curled his lips, but Yukigami on the other side didn't seem to notice what was going on here, and stood alone in front of the window in a daze...

"Idiot! Can't you be quicker?" Sakura crossed her waist and yelled at Naruto, "I almost took off his mask!"

Unexpectedly, Kakashi ignored them at all, but sat up with a heavy face.

Several people were at a loss, but Naruto said first: "Mr. Kakashi, what's wrong with you?"

"Do you also feel very uneasy, always feel that something is missing?" Xue Shenyue, who turned around at some time, said solemnly.

Everyone was stunned.

Kakashi covered his face with his hands, only showing one eye and said, "That's right! But if you don't cut it, you're already dead..."

Xue Shenyue spread her hands and said, "According to common sense, the corpse disposal troops usually dispose of corpses on the spot..."

Kakashi's expression was shocked: "You mean..."

Xue Shenyue nodded in affirmation.

Sakura on the side was puzzled and asked in confusion, "What's the matter?"

"Don't you understand?" Xue Shenyue turned her head and frowned and said, "How will that masked boy deal with the corpses that will not be beheaded any more?"

Naruto looked confused: "What?"

Xiao Ying spread her hands and said, "Then who knows! Didn't the corpse be taken away by him?"

"That's right... If he needs evidence of his death, he just needs to cut off the head and bring it back after processing, right? Why did he take the whole body?" Xue Shenyue said.

Kakashi frowned and added: "Besides, there is also a problem with the weapon used by the ninja chasing and killing the young man..."

Sasuke suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "Isn't that an ordinary flying needle? What do you mean..."

His expression was shaken, and sweat was evident on his face: "No way..."

"That's right! That's it!" Kakashi nodded.

Dazna wrinkled his old face and said, "What are you talking about?"

"What we want to say is..." Xue Shenyue looked serious, and waved his right hand: "If you don't cut it, you may still be alive!"

Everyone was shocked, especially Grandpa Dazna was sweating profusely, he didn't even know that his glasses fell off...

Naruto said angrily, "This—how is this possible!"

"Mr. Kakashi, didn't you personally confirm that he is dead?" Sakura's pretty face turned pale, and it was also difficult to accept the news. After all, they spent such a high price to seriously injure that guy. If he didn't die, before Isn't it a waste of time?
Kakashi nodded, and said helplessly: "I did confirm it, but... that is probably just a suspended animation!"

Xue Shenyue added lightly from the side: "The flying needle used by the boy, unless it hits a vital point, the lethality is extremely low... For ninja hunting troops, they are often very familiar with the structure of the human body, which makes people fall into a state of suspended animation. It's not difficult."

He squeezed his chin and recalled: "Speaking of which, firstly, he took away a corpse that was much heavier than himself, and secondly, he used a non-lethal flying needle... From this point of view, the young man probably came to help him. beheaded, not to kill him."

Dazna wiped his sweat and said, "Boy, are you worrying too much? Isn't it the mission of the ninja to kill the troops?"

Xue Shenyue curled her lips: "Then I'll go to sleep now, I won't protect you anymore, the strong enemy is dead anyway."

Dazna twitched his face.

Kakashi said seriously: "Once you find something suspicious, you must be prepared before things become irreversible... This is also one of the iron laws of ninjas."

Several people nodded.

"Speaking of which, thanks to Shenyue's reminder this time, otherwise it would be a big trouble!" Kakashi said with emotion.

Everyone focused their eyes on Xue Shenyue, who knew when he was lying on the floor with his legs crossed, with a contented expression on his face, as if the serious boy just now was not him...

"What are you doing?" Kakashi asked with black lines.

Xue Shenyue held her head with her hands, closed her eyes, and swayed her legs casually: "Too many brain cells were wasted just now, I need to recover."

Everyone: "..."

"It doesn't make any sense at all..."

At this moment, a child with a hat appeared in the room with an indifferent face.

"Inari, be obedient and say hello!" Grandpa Dazna said kindly: "They are ninjas who protect us!"

Inari glanced at them slowly and said calmly, "Grandpa, they will die..."

It seems that this time we are going to fight against that boy, the current strength is not enough, we must find a way to improve it. ——Snow God Moon——
