I just returned to Konoha and found that all my clan members were gone.

Tekuno opened his eyes wide, he had never seen someone like this, who was chatting with you about life one second and stabbing you with a knife the next.

He was not too shocked when he heard about Asuma's death, but he was still a jonin after all. Tekuno endured the pain and pulled out the sword. Looking at the familiar chakra sword, he knew it was Asuma's weapon for sure.

He jumped up and put some distance between himself and Shikamaru. Fortunately, the injury was not fatal. Tekuno threw away the chakra knife in his hand and explained to Shikamaru in a negotiating tone.

"Shikamaru, you are a smart man. Let's just forget about this matter. I didn't expect Asuma's death. I will talk to the consultant about the factory. I will definitely not let you bear this responsibility."

Such a big thing happened in the factory, and the Sandaime's son was sacrificed. This is a huge incident in Konoha. As the manager of the factory, Shikamaru must be held responsible for it.

But Shikamaru didn't care about these things at this time. He really didn't expect that Tekuno was still thinking about these things at this time.

The disgust in my heart is even stronger because of this kind of decadent thinking.

"Tekuno, do you know why I didn't hit you where you are?"

Seeing Shikamaru's disgusted expression slowly fade away and turn into indifference, Tekuno felt something was wrong.

"Because I don't want you to die so easily. Compared with those who died because of you, dying like this would be too easy for you."

As he finished speaking, Shikamaru had already completed the hand seal, and a shadow extended directly from under his feet.

"I've given you enough face, kid. If you weren't born in the Nara clan, you wouldn't even be a Chunin now!"

Seeing that he could not negotiate, Tekuno started to curse and ran quickly, ignoring the pain of his wounds. He pulled lightly with his hidden fingers, and an invisible thin rope was moved.

Shikamaru noticed that the corpse next to him was moving, so he gave up the idea of ​​continuing to perform ninjutsu and left quickly.

Suddenly, the body of Akuan's mother exploded, and countless Senbon swords emerged from a small mechanism and stabbed towards Shikamaru.

The power of this mechanical ninjutsu is greater than that of an ordinary person's throwing. Its only drawback is that it is too rigid and cannot be adjusted. The directions of throwing are all set.

Shikamaru rolled over to avoid the attack. Although there was no danger, when he looked again, Tekunos figure was only a small black dot.

Looking at the blown-to pieces body, Shikamaru's heart couldn't calm down for a long time. He picked up the chakra knife and chased after the other party.

Although they are both jonin, Tekuno, who was born as a commoner, is better at setting traps and using ninja tools. Physical skills are not really his strong point. In addition, he was already injured and could not increase his speed at all.

I’m almost there. As long as I get back to the village, that guy won’t be able to do anything to me.

Tekuno's hair was already damp with sweat, he had no intention of fighting Shikamaru as it would have been meaningless for him.

There was a sound of breaking through the air, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw that it was the chakra knife again.

From his perspective, the knife couldn't hit him at all and was completely useless. He didn't even need to dodge.

As he expected, the chakra knife didn't hit him at all, but instead nailed the tree trunk next to him.

The smug look had not yet appeared on his face. When he wanted to move forward, he found that his body could not move at all.

Looking back again, the chakra knife was now nailed on his shadow.

Tekuno couldn't believe that he had been tricked like this.

"When did the Nara clan have such a ninjutsu?"

Shikamaru finally arrived in front of the other party, and first connected his shadow to the other party's shadow before speaking.

"This is a technique that I created on my own. No one else in the Nara clan has ever used it. So do you have any last words?"

The controlled shadow turned into a pitch-black arm and slowly stretched out towards Tekuno's neck. This was the Nara clan's shadow strangulation technique.

I noticed that my breathing was becoming increasingly difficult. I wanted to struggle but was completely unable to move. I watched myself walk towards death step by step.

"Wait, wait, I know I was wrong, I still have something to say, yes, it's about the consultant..."

Tekuno's tears were already flowing. A dignified Jonin of Konoha actually looked so miserable in the face of death.

Shikamaru didn't believe the other party's attitude of admitting his mistake at all, but when he heard about the consultant, the strength of the arm that was controlling the shadow loosened a little.

The surviving Shou Kuno was breathing heavily, and Shikamaru asked as he looked at his appearance.

"What is the consultant's business?"

How could Tekuno know the secret about the consultant? This was just a means of delaying. They were less than 500 meters away from the main gate of Konoha. Maybe if they held on a little longer, other ninjas would appear.

"That's right, that's right..."

Tekuno stammered, not knowing what to say, and Shikamaru's last bit of patience was exhausted.

At this time, Tekuno saw a group of ninjas advancing quickly out of the corner of his eye and couldn't help but shout.

"Help! We're going to kill someone!"

The team of ninjas obviously heard the shouts and quickly ran towards the two people. The leader of the team was Shirogane's former partner, Baiyun Yeshan.

Shikamaru glared at the two-faced Tekuno. At this time, he realized that he was tricked by Tekuno, and he did not hold back and activated the Hand Shadow Strangulation Technique again.

Tekuno saw Yeshan's anxious look and wanted to shout again, but found that he could not make any sound.

The oxygen-deprived brain's eyes went dark and it could no longer see this bright and beautiful world.

"Tekuno!"

Baiyun Yeshan couldn't believe that someone dared to kill Konoha's senior ninja at Konoha's doorstep. No matter who the person was, there was no need to hold back at this moment.

He drew out the ninja sword from behind and used the deadly move of the vacuum sword.

Shikamaru used the dead Tekuno to block in front of himself, and her plump body served as a shield. Countless wind blades fell on Tekuno's body, making him look even more embarrassed.

Seeing his companion's body being used by the other party in this way, Yeshan became even more furious and directly used the instant body technique to get behind Shikamaru.

He swung the ninja sword to attack again, but the ninja sword was obviously slowed down by the Konoha vest on the opponent's body.

As expected, there is a difference between Konoha's elite jonin and weaklings like Tekuno. Shikamaru obviously did not react when the opponent came behind him. Thanks to Hayama's delay, Shikamaru seized the opportunity to use Asuma's chakra knife to block the attack.

With a clang, the two weapons collided and sparks flew. When Ye Shan saw Asuma's exclusive weapon, his pupils shrank again.

The two of them distanced themselves again, and Yeshan was able to see the other person's face clearly. What he could never have imagined was that the one who killed Tekuno was Nara Shikamaru.

But Ye Shan quickly reacted. He understood that although his companion had many shortcomings, it was impossible for him to betray Konoha.

"Nara Shikamaru killed your fellow villagers. Do you want to be a traitor?"

The other ninjas also looked at Shikamaru in shock. They didn't expect that the murderer was a big family in their own village. No one would dare to believe it if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes.

Following Ye Shan's question, the others did not dare to ask any more questions and just surrounded Shikamaru.

Rebellious?

Hearing the other party directly put a big hat on him, Shikamaru couldn't help laughing. Looking around, there were seven or eight people coming, all of whom were at least at the level of Chunin or above. With an elite like Yeshan, it was almost impossible to break through by force.

Thinking of this, Shikamaru put down his arms and said lightly.

"Shirogane-jonin, it's not good to jump to conclusions like that."

Shikamaru pointed at Tekuno's body, "This guy is the one who caused the fire!"
