Anbu Biography

The most eye-catching thing in the hall is the coffin board that the ancestor Qingming was lifted.

Qingyan cautiously cast Kunai first, and let out a "du" sound in the empty hall.A kunai was hit in the middle of the coffin board, but nothing happened.

Kiyohiko reached out to the ninja bag and took out the first short knife from it.

The sky is still filled with night, and the last quarter moon hangs in the sky, casting cold and bright moonlight.

The building couldn't block Hinata Neiji's line of sight, and the two kinsmen lay in ambush 200 meters away, without saying a word.

"Is it okay? If Captain Kiyohiko is alone... This is a dangerous area where Mr. Kakashi has been recruited."

Shino lowered his voice: "If you want to ask why, especially between Jonin and Jonin, there is still a gap in combat power..."

"Obey the arrangement and stay vigilant."

Neji said calmly: "Now we can only trust Captain Kiyohiko's instructions."

After confirming that there was no mechanism inside the ancestral hall, Qingyan cautiously walked to the coffin, and found out that there was another secret passage inside the coffin.

The steps go all the way down, with rough stone walls on both sides.There was no lamp on the stone wall, and there was no candlestick for putting candles in. Kiyohiko took out a cold light stick from his ninja bag, folded it up and threw it down, and could faintly hear a few echoes.

——There is a sense of sight that invites you into the urn.

Kiyohiko held the wakizashi around his waist with one hand, and pressed the other hand against the wall to continuously explore the mechanism, carefully considering his own weight all the way down, until the narrow stairs became wide again, Qingyan realized that he might Stumbled into the assembly workshop of a special weapon.

All kinds of molds and processing equipment that he couldn't understand were scattered on the ground, and some of them seemed familiar to him, probably the same model as Kankuro's puppet maintenance tools.

There are thin and transparent silk threads knotted everywhere in this space, which are not much easier to identify than spider silk. There must be various ambushes in the craftsman's place. The Anbu has done anti-trap training, and Qing Yan carefully avoided them. Troublesome, but not beyond expectations.

Just like this, cautiously exploring step by step, suddenly, a burst of light burst out from under Qingyan's feet, as if centering on him, a huge sealing technique spread out on the soles of his feet.

In an instant, it seemed to be enough for him to untie the Taidao from his waist and throw it out.In the next second, the surrounding space and scenery were distorted. Qingyan felt as if he was stuffed into a front-loading washing machine. After a while of spinning around, he fell into a strange space.

In a small space, about the size of an ordinary one-bedroom, sat alone.

A slightly curled up posture, and familiar silver-white hair.

"...Kakashi?!"

Qingyan exclaimed, the other party seemed to be in a very bad condition, but there was no obvious trauma on his body.Generally, long-term surveillance and intelligence spying missions will bring food pills for at least two weeks, and they will be replenished from surrounding areas from time to time, so there should not be any major problems with food supply and chakra supply, but The eyelid of Kakashi's only remaining eye was obviously blue and black, and he looked exhausted.

—Two days, or three days.Kiyohiko judged.

Kakashi's last information came from three days ago. They were delayed by one day on the road at full speed, so there was only a four-day time difference.

"What? It's Ah Qing."

The other party raised his head slowly, and after focusing his only eye, he rarely showed a look of surprise: "Although I have been waiting for reinforcements, I didn't expect Tsunade-sama to send you here."

"What the hell is going on... Anyway, let's drink some water first."

Kiyohiko took out a small water jug ​​from the bag he carried with him. Even if he took Bingliang Wan for the past few days, energy consumption and chakra supply would not be a problem. The lack of water for several consecutive days cannot be solved by Bingliang Wan .

Kakashi took it and took two sips, then handed the jug back again, his eyes were like a tired dead fish: "I want to drink miso soup."

Qing Yan: "..."

He sighed: "You are already a little dehydrated now, and drinking salty things will easily lead to electrolyte imbalance."

"I want to drink miso soup."

Kakashi emphasized, as if worried that the other party would not understand, he looked at the package behind Kiyohiko: "You must have brought it."

"...In short, you should exercise restraint, there are still a few tough battles to be fought."

After a few seconds of stalemate, Kiyohiko was the first to lose. He took out a small bamboo tube from his backpack, opened the lid, and handed it to Kakashi: "How did you know I would bring it?"

"I don't believe those guys in your house would let you go out empty-handed."

Kakashi bent his eyes and smiled softly: "It used to be like this. Even for long-distance transnational missions, your parents will prepare bento."

The miso soup was already a bit cold, and a little bit of flocculent precipitation could be seen, but Kakashi didn't pay attention to this detail. He shook the bamboo tube in his hand slightly, forced his neck to drink it after stirring it well , and even smacked the taste, and was satisfied to see that there were finely chopped eggplant pieces in it.

"In short, this is probably the interior of a certain sealing technique."

He explained while drinking: "The surrounding space will change every three hours, but all other passages except here will absorb Chakra, and ordinary ninjas basically can't last long."

His words paused, and he stared into Qingyan's eyes: "I tried to destroy this place, but all the chakras including Rachel will be absorbed by the surrounding environment."

"I tried to use Bingliang Pills to enhance my chakra once or twice before, and the limit I could detect was that there might also be the corpse of Seimei, the ancestor of the country of artisans - but why did he absorb such chakra? More chakra, what are these deeper places, for me now, it's a little..."

"The information is generally understood."

Kiyohiko nodded: "The mission information that Tsunade-sama gave me is that you found out that they intend to create ninja tools with autonomous consciousness...how did you find these?"

"Maybe you and I entered this space from the same place? They left a lot of documents on the scene. Although I can't understand some of them, I still copied them with Sharingan. Konoha..."

Having said that, Kakashi suddenly raised his head: "You didn't see anything, did you?"

Qing Yan: "..."

He said with a very sad expression: "Kakashi, sometimes your words really hurt your heart."

"Ahaha, I just didn't expect to send you here. Speaking of which, your mask is useless at all, and I recognized it at the first sight."

"...Actually, I also feel that it is not only useless but also blocks the line of sight."

Kiyohiko simply pushed Anbu's mask to the top of his head, revealing most of his face.

Since it is launched every three hours, it seems that all that can be done in the current time is to wait.Although it is a confined space, it seems that it is because of the exchange of new air every three hours. Although it is a bit stuffy, it is still not enough to make people lack oxygen. Some nostalgia.

"……why are you laughing?"

Kakashi asked muffled.

"I just suddenly remembered that you have saved me like this several times before, and finally you have the chance to do it the other way around."

Qing Yan said.

"...I haven't been rescued by you yet, it's just that the two of us are trapped together."

Kakashi rolled his eyes vigorously: "And I just think that you have some tactics that can be used occasionally in tactics. In other teams, you would have died a long time ago."

"Barely considered a teamwork, Tianzang later agreed."

Regarding Kakashi's inexplicable insistence that "as long as you can save your teammates, you must save your teammates", there are quite a few people in Anbu who are quite critical, but the success rate of their team's missions has always been high, so although there are opposing opinions, But most of them didn't make any waves.

"He's just greedy for your bento."

Kakashi did not hesitate to expose the more bleak truth: "If you have any other way to fight without creating chakra, you can probably find a way to break through here, but those guys from the country of craftsmen outside must definitely It’s not going to be indifferent either.”

Qing Yan looked at the wall, and the surrounding area seemed to be tightly fitted. It was impossible to imagine that a corridor would be formed every three hours: "Then leave it to me... eh?"

With a plop, Kakashi suddenly fell to the ground.The empty bamboo tube rolled on the floor, making Kiyohiko think for a moment that someone had poisoned his miso soup.

—but this is impossible.

As long as you don't create chakra, you won't be able to draw power, but this is the only thing that is almost impossible for Kakashi - the Sharingan in his right eye needs to absorb the body to provide it all the time. Chakra to maintain, not Uchiha's body transplant Sharingan Although it has brought a lot of benefits during the battle, it also has a considerable degree of trouble.

For three consecutive days, only relying on Bingliang Pills to maintain the supply of chakra and energy, and to keep my spirit tense all the time. Under such a high-intensity situation, it is probably already at the limit to be able to persist all the way until the arrival of reinforcements Alright.

"Kakashi?"

Kiyohiko quickly straightened the opponent's body and adjusted to a relatively comfortable position. Then Kakashi's fingers slightly bent, his index fingers turned horizontally and vertically, and the corners of his mouth curled up.

"Two hours."

He said, and then fell into a deep sleep.

The index finger of the left hand, two horizontal and one vertical, was originally one of Anbu Kakashiban's secret instructions, which meant "rest in place temporarily".

Qingyan pursed his lips, still being careful not to disturb others' sleep as much as possible, but his fingers touched the wall inch by inch, trying to detect the abnormality here.

In fact, he has seen "weapons with the ability to think independently". His own swords are the perfect embodiment of this kind of skill, but in today's world, it should be right that there is no such skill... If the artisan These craftsmen have no way to divide a large number of spirits on the basis of Fusangshen like the government of time. It is almost impossible to create souls out of nothing.

——But there are indeed several possibilities that can do similar things: for example, using some tissues of powerful monsters to make demon knives... In a certain world he experienced, this method of using fangs to make demon knives is very It's common, but the only "monsters" that can achieve similar effects in this world are tailed beasts, and it's hard to imagine these guys knocking off the fangs or leg bones of a tailed beast...

But the dental knife created by this method still needs a user-it is almost too late to say that it has independent will to carry out completely autonomous attacks.

And the worst possibility... Qing Yan shook his head, trying to clear these redundant thoughts from his mind.

There is no point in speculating too much in advance.

Kakashi slept for about an hour and a half - Kiyohiko's own biological clock was a bit inaccurate in estimating the time, but after the other party woke up, he found himself leaning on the other shoulder.

It must be because Kiyohiko has already explored the area, but still found nothing.

Although it is a short sleep, it is enough as a means of barely recovering energy.

Kakashi asked with some amusement: "If you don't use Chakra, do you have any other means of fighting? It's like what's written in the novel... spiritual power, or onmyoji or something, I guess it shouldn't be that way. absorbed."

"Spiritual power is indeed there... but unfortunately, although I have met onmyojis in other worlds, they all agreed that I do not have the talent to learn this aspect of magic."

Qingyan feigned a regretful expression, shrugged: "So it can only be used as a means of summoning the sword."

Kakashi's assessment of the time was very accurate, and without saying a few words, the space trembled rumblingly, and then, the originally tight wall suddenly cracked a passage that only allowed one person to pass through.

"I went in once before, but because the Sharingan couldn't be closed, I estimated that I would have to try to exit halfway through Chakra."

Kakashi said: "Basically, it can be judged from the seal formula engraved on the wall that this is a very large-scale chakra extraction technique. It is not yet clear what it is used to supply, but... this dangerous thing , can’t let it go.”

He forced himself to stand up, putting an arm on Qingyan's shoulder.

"I separated a shadow clone to do experiments before. If there is no accident, this space has a basic Chakra absorption rating. Two people should be able to last longer."

His words paused, and his attitude became subtle: "But I didn't expect you to come here..."

Chakra is a mixture of physical energy and spiritual energy, while spiritual power is the result of a mixture of spiritual energy and natural energy.He knew that summoning the sword seemed to consume a certain amount of spiritual power, but the specific value and degree of this consumption obviously couldn't be quantified—or even if he could, he had no reason to ask the other party to reveal his secrets.

But now everyone is a grasshopper on a rope...

"Don't worry, I haven't made any progress in the past seven years."

Kiyohiko shrugged his shoulders: "Especially when dealing with such heretical things—otherwise, Master Tsunade wouldn't have asked me to lead the team to carry out this task."

The word "lead the team" was deliberately accentuated, and this guy's voice has hardly changed in seven years, Kakashi thought, and the characteristic of penny-pinching in some strange places is also the same.It was clearly a matter of life and death, and Kakashi had endured for several days in a hopeless situation, but Kakashi suddenly felt that his mood had not been relaxed for a long time.

——The ninja is indeed an unreasonable creature, he thought so, and said casually: "Ah Qing, you'd better have a stronger desire to survive. In this situation, you might die in the next second."

Their chakra is being absorbed, even if two people are sharing, it can be said that the shoulder-width passage is too depressing.There are dense engravings on the walls on both sides of the surrounding area. Kiyohiko didn't bother to study it carefully. I think Kakashi tried his best to study it once, and he just waited to read this person's mission report after everything was over and returned to Konoha.

Considering the difference in physical strength and mental state between the two of them, Qing Yan walked ahead this time.The other party's black hair was tied loosely at the back of his head, and the only hair tie that was different from the standard Anbu equipment was obviously carefully selected, basically the same every day.

——Many people are waiting for him to go back, and this guy still has unfulfilled dreams.

The speed of the two people was really fast, and after Kakashi swallowed the last ration pill, they finally reached the end of the passage.

Here is an almost pure white, empty space - of course it cannot be that the field of vision is boundless, Qing Yan is more inclined to think that this is the effect of some kind of illusion or visual interference.Floating in the mid-air in front of them was a white-haired young man in hunting clothes. He had light-colored pupils and an indifferent expression. Even when he stared at the two "intruders" from outside, his expression did not change a bit.

"...Presumably, you are the ancestor of the country of craftsmen, Qingming."

Kakashi said cautiously: "I didn't expect these guys to really try to resurrect you."

The other party glanced at Kiyohiko and Kakashi's cheeks with inorganic eyes, without saying a word.Kiyohiko noticed that his own chakra was being continuously absorbed by the surrounding environment, and then supplied to this guy named Seimei, who obviously couldn't fly by himself, but was forced to float in mid-air by the agitation of power , this obviously cannot be something that can be done by the combined power provided by myself and Kakashi, so the source of this power is...

"damn it."

Kakashi's rare emotion obviously burst into a foul language: "This is the power of Mio Isofu."

Continuing to think along this line of thought, the reason why the three-tailed chakra has not been found at sea recently is also obvious—even if Seimei is only provided with a small part of the tailed beast’s chakra, this loss is enough Let the instinct of the three tails tuck their tails and flee in embarrassment.

Kiyohiko pulled out Wakizawa from his waist, and this slightly hostile gesture only made Seimei frown slightly.

"Boring resistance."

He said: "Now I am infinitely close to the god of immortality, just a mere ninja. How can your weak blade pose any threat to me?"

"..."

The dark-haired youth took a deep breath.

"Although I don't know what means and what price these guys used to wake you up."

Qingyan stared into Seimei's eyes: "But the very unpleasant aura emanating from your body can't be done if you don't get rid of it."

As soon as the words were finished, the young man spread his palm, and there was a rather inconspicuous little black spot in the palm - it was Shino's parasite.

The palms were clenched into fists again, and the index finger and middle finger were stretched out, and a "Seal of Reconciliation" was received with one hand.

"untie!"

With a bang, a shadow clone far away turned into white smoke and dissipated under the car.The two subordinates on the ground moved quickly, and the countless detonating symbols arranged in the cracks of the rock suddenly burst into light.

Immediately afterwards, the earth trembled and the mountains shook continuously.

"The overall material of this kind of building can absorb chakra, and in the same way, it can also block the vision of the white eyes, but the induction between Shino and the parasite is indeed beyond this kind of shackles-so from the beginning, they Know roughly where we are. Three hours, enough time for these two kids to figure out how to blow up the area to the ground."

Qing Yan curled his lips, and finally showed the smile he hadn't seen for a long time today: "You don't think I really plan to fight head-to-head with you one-on-one, do you?"

With a click, a gap was slightly cracked in this pure white space.

The author has something to say:

As long as the ninja is not facing a basically invincible character like Madara, Gou is still very useful.
