The end of the ninja world

In the dim light, Sugimoto and Nokobei began to follow the footsteps.

It was not easy to identify the footprints on the branches, but neither of them dared to light a lamp. Now the enemy is in the light and we are in the dark. The two did not want to reveal their location.

Ye Xiaobei didn't think there was anything extraordinary about the two people who escaped. Being able to leave footprints is itself a manifestation of lack of strength. As a spy, if you can leave such obvious traces when evacuating, then you are disqualified as a spy. Both he and Sugimoto have been able to leave no traces, and the enemy's control over chakra is probably not as good as his own.

Sugimoto remained cautious. Since the other party has the courage to enter the Kingdom of Fire, he should still be superior.

After a period of running, Ye Xiaobei felt a little breathless, but Sugimoto's expression remained normal.

"Be careful!" Sugimoto suddenly jumped in front of Noxiaobei and waved his kunai. The sound of fighting was heard in the air.

"Since you're here, please show up." Sugimoto shouted, and several kunai shot into the darkness with detonating talismans.

"Boom..." The silence of the forest was instantly broken, and a figure was seen carrying the smoke and dust of the explosion and attacking Sugimoto and the two. The figure in the smoke and dust fluttered his hands, seemingly forming seals.

Ye Xiaobei took out his scientific ninja tool and was about to shoot when Sugimoto suddenly pushed him and said in a low voice: "Keep chasing."

Ye Xiaobei understood that there was only one attacking enemy, so there must be another golden cicada who escaped from his shell. After the man left behind was discovered in an ambush, he advanced instead of retreating. With such a sealing technique, he must be quite strong.

"Don't fight. If you find out, send a signal and run away immediately." Sugimoto explained again.

"Understood." Ye Xiaobei replied. Taking advantage of the chaotic moment of the fight between the two, continue tracking.

As expected, the footprints ahead turned into a single person. Ye Xiaobei did not dare to advance forward. If he was ambushed like before, he did not have the battle experience like Sugimoto.

The sounds of the two men's ninjutsu battles could be heard behind the scenes. If these ninjutsu are not based on scientific ninjutsu, but are produced by the enemy himself, then this spy does have two brushes, which are not something Ye Xiaobei can deal with.

As they chased after each other, a sense of uneasiness crept into Ye Xiaobei's heart. Since the enemy is not weak and can use ninjutsu proficiently, why does he leave such obvious traces when he runs away.

The only answer is that the footprints were left on purpose! Whether it was to hide the real escape route or the real number of people, Ye Xiaobei and the others must have been fooled.

...

There was a pair of eyes staring at Ye Xiaobei in the darkness. There was a trace of murderous intent in those eyes.

These eyes knew Sugimoto. The genius who was promoted once a year was quite famous among the young ninjas in Satsuma. His information was not difficult to investigate.

According to the information obtained by these eyes, Sugimoto is a genin of the third rank, but according to the previous practice of participating in a competition once a year, he should now have the strength of a chunin.

Catching up with Sugimoto, there was also a child with blank information. He was probably the apprentice of Sugimoto. Although scientific ninja was a bit troublesome, the child himself was probably just a junior of Sunokuchi and not worth mentioning.

These eyes deliberately left the ninjas of the Makoshita rank to ambush them. They originally planned to drag the two of them down in one fell swoop, but they never expected that Ye Xiaobei actually chased them alone.

There was a sneer in these eyes, what a pity, Satsuma's genius ninja. It would have had a more glorious future, but it turned out to be so overwhelming in the face of the makushita rank. Not only resisting alone, but also letting a fledgling child continue to chase.

"Hahaha." The eyes did not hide the disdain in his heart, "Sugimoto, Sugimoto, not only will you die here today, but your lovely subordinates will also die here because of your wrong judgment!"

"Water Escape·Water Sword"

A sharp sword made of water shot out from his mouth and stabbed Ye Xiaobei directly in the heart. But Ye Xiaobei didn't seem to notice it, and was still identifying the footprints on the branches.

"Humph, Konoha ninja, that's all." Those eyes were about to leave.

At this time, a red flash of light rose from the ground accompanied by a scream, and exploded above the eyes with a bang.

It's a flare. Exposed! How can it be! He had clearly dealt with the Konoha ninja who had recklessly pursued him, and he had clearly made sure that there were no other pursuers!

Those eyes looked at Ye Xiaobei, who was supposed to be "stabbed to death" by the water sword. There was no body anywhere, only a broken shadow.

He was tricked by a little clone technique. Those eyes couldn't believe that such a child could avoid his water escape.

"You are so young and so terrifying! This child must not be kept."

Those eyes had confirmed that there were no other pursuers nearby. Although the signal flare just now exposed his position, he was confident that killing Ye Xiaobei was just a matter of breathing, and he could escape even if he ran after the killing.

The plan was decided, and the man quickly rushed towards the location where the signal flare was launched.

However, at this time, another yellow flash whizzed by, and this time the direction of the signal bomb shocked those eyes. It turned out to be the direction in which the last spy escaped!

Tonight, one of the three of them sneaked into the city hall, intending to steal the defense map of the southern part of the Fire Country, but was discovered by patrol, and the three of them fled all the way.

Their number was not revealed, and in order to confuse the pursuers, they deliberately left two footprints. On the way, two people were arranged to turn around and respond to the enemy. This was Jin Chan's plan to escape from his shell. The purpose was to let the third person take the information out. Unexpectedly, the young man in front of me could easily see through their plan!

Two flowers bloom, one on each side. Only when Ye Xiaobei saw the suspicious footprints did he know that he had been tricked. Pretending to stop and check, he actually secretly used the clone technique, leaving only one clone standing in place.

Sure enough, shortly after Ye Xiaobei hid, a water sword pierced his clone.

Ye Xiaobei was a little lucky that this person was far stronger than him. Fortunately, he noticed the danger in time. If the water sword had hit him, he might have gone to the underworld to meet the first Hokage Senju Hashirama by now.

Ye Xiaobei did not forget his mission and quickly fired a red signal bomb into the sky where the water sword came from, indicating that the enemy was found here.

The reaction from the other party surprised Ye Xiaobei. After a spy exposed his whereabouts, the next action was not to move, but to attack. This was very interesting. Considering that the two men were very powerful but deliberately left footprints, Ye Xiaobei quickly judged that there must be a third spy.

All their actions are to provide cover for the third spy! Without hesitation, Ye Xiaobei released a yellow flare in the direction they originally escaped.

"Hmph, you are indeed very smart. In time, you will become my biggest enemy." Those eyes quickly approached Ye Xiaobei, "I will give you a chance to claim your name. This is my respect for you."

"My name is Sayanara." Noxiaobei ran in the direction of Sugimoto without looking back.

"???"
