Tu Sheng [Hokage]

Early the next morning, Itachi and I walked out of the village gate together. He still had the same stern look and always kept a certain distance from me.

I consider myself not the kind of person who is hot-faced and cold-hearted, so I didn't take the initiative to talk to Uchiha Itachi, and spent the entire journey in silence.

The huge mountains towering into the clouds on both sides squeezed the blue sky until there was only a narrow gap. The thunder from the sky echoed between the canyons from time to time, and the rumbling sounds were endless.

After three days of long journey, Itachi and I finally entered the south of the Kingdom of Thunder, and should be able to reach Kumogakure Village soon.

"Wait." I called to Uchiha Itachi who was running in front. He jumped to my side and frowned when he saw the scene in front of him that was like a hell on earth.

It was a huge canyon. Such canyons were not uncommon in the land of thunder surrounded by mountains. However, the entrance to the canyon in front of me was filled with smoke. The corpses were almost piled up into mountains. The smell of blood penetrated my olfactory barrier. Hit the brain.

I looked at each other and walked in with my muscles tensed up. This place is very close to the point where the rebellion occurred in the mission. If my idea is correct, the depths of the canyon may be the stronghold where the Kirigakure rebels are hiding. That is Our mission objectives.

What is horrifying is that there are countless headless corpses hanging on the rock walls around here, and there are large areas of dark red blood everywhere.

In the hell on earth, everything was incredibly quiet, and the thunder that would sound from time to time also became silent at this moment.

I heard Itachi say

"Go and see."

My instinct told me that something was wrong, but his voice was like a spell at the moment, bewitching me to act according to his instructions, and I had no room for resistance, and even my mind became dizzy.

The cold breath hit the back of my neck. I wanted to react, but my body seemed to be under someone else's control, and I couldn't even lift my fingers.

The needle pierced the fragile skin, and the cold liquid spread throughout my body along with my blood circulation. The indescribable pain immediately woke me up. I turned around sharply, and what I saw was not Uchiha Itachi.

"who are you?"

The figure hidden in the mist swayed on the spot and disappeared.

I blinked my eyes in confusion, Uchiha Itachi disappeared, and my dull perception could not detect his location. And the person who just gave me an inexplicable injection also disappeared, and suddenly I was the only one left in the big canyon. one person.

The medicinal liquid spread in the body, causing a slight sting when it slid through the blood vessels. This feeling was very strange. Just when I wanted to mobilize my strength to break it down, I found that the dragon blood in my body suddenly fell silent. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't. Extend your power.

This is not quite right.

As if to confirm the uneasiness in my heart, an extremely strong chakra gushes out from the deeper part of the canyon. Even a person like me who basically doesn't use chakra can feel the huge chakra fluctuations, but the numbness on my body is only Unabated, I could only watch helplessly as a huge figure emerged from the thick mist.

This is a giant beast covered with blue chakra flames, its eyes are like two shining lanterns, and the extremely malicious chakra heat waves push away the fog.

so big…

What a big cat.

I don’t know if the paralysis effect caused by the drug has spread to the brain. I didn’t even feel the murderous aura on it. The big cat with a slightly round face looked down at me for a while and opened its mouth.

"Is he actually a child..."

Oh, no worries, the big cat said.

I didn't even have a chance to respond to it, and the huge cat's claws called towards me. Most of the medicine was evaporated by the dragon's blood. Compared to its size, I easily blocked the claws, and the ground under my feet was crushed by the huge force. I jumped out of the shallow pit that I had stepped on.

The power of the dragon is not something that this big cat can compete with.

The big cat missed it for a moment, and I actually read a trace of surprise on its inhuman face.

The mist steamed, and the numb body basically returned to normal at this time. The hot breath of the big cat came out, and the heat wave set off wave-like ripples in it. Fragmented light fell in the canyon in the gradually shallowing mist.

Kitty, little kitten, go back and catch mice.

With a violent explosion, the boiling dragon blood in my body finally broke through the fragile human skin. I opened my huge wings, but due to the narrow terrain, I couldn't flap them. When my claws landed, a dragon roar resounded throughout the whole place. canyon.

Narrowing my eyes, the situation now turned into a mountain wall stretched twice my size, and the big cat turned into a kitten.

I raised my sharp claws and pressed down on its head. The hot chakra couldn't hurt me at all. When I pushed him down to the ground, I said in a deep voice unique to dragons.

"Do you still want to fight? Little cat."
