Deception

The situation on the field is unclear.

Although it was a two-on-two situation, Ayane had lost the ability to fight now, and the chakra that was left in her body was probably not enough to activate the Byakugan.

The enemy side has two ninjas, one of whom was the captain, undoubtedly a jōnin-level ninja.

The other person will not be simple either.

It is very difficult to use the element of surprise to kill them.

After the scene just now, the vigilance in their hearts has reached the extreme.

The two people on the opposite side, after the anger in their eyes, calmed down and also regained their composure. Although their eyes were colder, they wanted to kill Shiraishi right away, but considering Shiraishi's strength, which was completely unknown to the two of them, they couldn't act rashly.

The root team leader suddenly extended his palm, and a large number of black insects flew in and surrounded Shiraishi from all directions.

Clan Aburame? Baishi secretly thought in his heart.

Seeing the opponent using bugs, Shiraishi knew which clan he was from.

In Konoha, only the Aburame clan possesses this insect technique.

This family is located in a forest in Konoha, which is specially used to grow insects suitable for combat. These insects have different characteristics and are good at reconnaissance, defense and attack.

It is said that there are special poisonous insects that are troublesome.

Seeing that the black cloud formed by the insects was surrounding all directions, Shiraishi didn't panic, his body disappeared from the spot.

These worms surrounded the place where Shiraishi disappeared, stagnated in the air for a moment, and then started attacking in the direction where Shiraishi was moving.

In Shiraishi's eyes, the insect's speed can only be considered relatively fast, but compared to its speed, its movements are clumsy.

Therefore, escaping the onslaught of bugs is not difficult.

However, his opponent wasn't just the ninja Aburame.

The root team captain was watching Shiraishi's movements calmly, he pulled out the ninja sword and held it in one hand, and formed seals in the other.

Shiraishi's eyes narrowed slightly.

A wisp of breeze swept around.

Shiraishi turned sideways to avoid the blade and swung towards him with the blade in her hand.

The cold light in the root ninja's eyes shot up, and he drew back his sword and confronted Shiraishi's ninja sword.

There was a crack in Shiraishi's sword, and when the opponent's ninja sword cut through the air.

The sound was as sharp and piercing as a stone scraped against glass.

"Konoha-style swordsmanship!"

Baishi frowned and turned his head unconsciously, but there was still a cut on his face.

Not only his face but also his calves and arms were also cut by invisible blades.

Wind? Shiraishi couldn't manage a single blow, so he immediately backed off, thinking about his heart.

Looking at the ninja sword in his hand, he realized that it would break at any moment.

Seeing Shiraishi retreating, the ninja captain gripped his sword tightly and pursued bravely.

Shiraishi had to keep dodging, only to hear that strange sound again, the rough sound of sharp stones passing through the glass.

"Avoid?"

The ninja captain saw that Shiraishi dodged opportunely this time, and dodged all the invisible air blades just right, so there was a surprise in his voice.

I was even more surprised.

Looking at Shiraishi with a dull face, he couldn't see what kind of monster he was, but in just one attack he saw through his swordplay.

Such a guy is still friends with the Uchiha Clan.

He must obey Danzo-Osama's wishes and get rid of the threat as soon as possible.

"You're the first person to see through my swordplay so quickly."

Even though he was an enemy, Captain Ninja did not hesitate to praise Shiraishi's talents.

But Shiraishi said very modestly, "It's nothing, I just have some understanding of wind attribute swordplay, and were those airflow blades triggered by sound? I happen to have seen almost similar attacks."

"yea?"

If you ignore the coldness in their tone, you might think it's just chatting between friends.

"While it's a shame that the second attack is invalid, it might be a good thing for you, because then your death will be less painful."

Shiraishi was a little startled, and immediately the wound opened by the airflow blade began to spurt a large amount of blood and his body fell weakly.

"It's a shame that a young ninja like you doesn't know how to choose."

The ninja captain placed the ninja sword back on his back and sighed in regret.

"Your biggest mistake is that you shouldn't compete with me in swordplay. Among Konoha, the only one who can beat me in swordplay is White Fang."

Shiraishi had so much

strength at such a young age, it was a shame.

Not only that, but he is also a rare medical ninja. If he can join the root, the root goals may be completed ahead of schedule.

Let Konoha enter a new era.

The Konoha era was ruled by its roots.

"Shiraishi-kun!?"

Seeing Shiraishi's body falling weakly, Ayane's face changed and she ran towards Shiraishi.

Because of such injuries, no one can be alive.

Once scratched by your airflow blade, your chakra will settle into the enemy's body for some time, and finally, he will be guided by the technique and attack inside the enemy and destroy them.

However, this move consumes a lot of chakras, so it's a unique move that will only be used when encountering a strong enemy.

In his opinion, Shiraishi is qualified to appreciate this technique.

"You don't need to mourn your friend's passing, after all, you will soon join him. Besides, you will be remembered as heroes, at least in the mission log, you will be heroes. Of course, in the form of a heroic battle against the ninjas. give sand

This is perhaps the greatest mercy.

It is also the greatest darkness that your roots carry.

Captain Ninja walked towards Ayane, the murderous intent in his eyes sublimated to the extreme.

This time he will not be careless.

All you need to do is retrieve the Sharingan and then secretly dispose of the bodies of the three, and this mission is complete.

"Captain! Be careful!?"

The ninja Aburame seemed to sense something and anxiously shouted at the ninja captain.

"Hmm?"

The ninja captain tilted his head slightly and looked suspiciously at his subordinate.

Then he felt a chill under his neck.

A dark shadow approached him and then flew past.

to tear apart.

Blood splattered from him.

The ninja captain couldn't scream, but grabbed his deep wound, and writhed and struggled on the ground.

Shiraishi came to Captain Ninja's side, dragged his blood-covered body, and stared at him with fearful eyes.

When these strange currents of air entered his body, Shiraishi could feel them intensely with natural energy, so he used the natural energy to protect important parts of his body in advance. When the airstream blade was detonated, the injury was much more superficial than expected.

Shiraishi crouched down, took the kunai out of the ninja bag, and stabbed the ninja captain in the chest mercilessly, ending his life.

"I don't like being the hero, so I will humbly give you this title."

Then, Shiraishi looked at the last ninja at the root with icy eyes.

The other part was completely startled by the impulse in Baishi's body.

Seeing that Shiraishi was fine, Ayane was relieved.

Because Shiraishi suddenly pretended to be dead and didn't disclose it in advance, Ayane thought that Shiraishi had died.

Shiraishi-Kun is still so good at tricking people. Ayane moaned in her heart.

The main reason is that the blood gushing out now was too frightening.

Generally speaking, based on those injuries, not one person could survive.

In the end, Shiraishi was still alive and kicking.

Then he is left with only one enemy.

Ayane also glared at the last ninja.

"You go."

Shiraishi said suddenly.

As soon as those words came out, not only Ayane but also the root ninja looked at Shiraishi in surprise.

"Let me go?"

The other part looked stunned, not expecting that answer.

"I'm injured now, and I'm not sure I'll take you down. And you don't want to die here, so how about we both stop? After all, you still need to report the situation to your superiors, don't you?"

Shiraishi persevered.

Ayane was stunned, she seemed to understand something, and agreed with Shiraishi's idea.

And the root ninja was surprised. At this time, if he is really weak, Shiraishi should use a tougher stance.

As a result, Shiraishi calmly said that he was seriously injured, and the root ninja hesitated in his heart.

To be honest, even though he wanted to avenge his dead comrade, Shiraishi pushed him too much.

It is very beneficial for both parties to close hands now.

He wanted to confirm again, "Are you willing to let me go?"

"Oh, as I said, I'm seriously injured right now. At most, we'll both die. I still have decades to enjoy, and I don't want to die so young. So it's the best outcome for both sides to make amends."

The root ninja calmed down and took a deep breath.

He started to back away, seeing that Shiraishi didn't respond, and Ayane also stood there obediently, without any action.

After retreating more than ten meters, Shiraishi and Ayane still didn't respond, and the other party believed Shiraishi's words and left here with the Body Flicker Technique.

About three or five seconds after

As he left the scene, Baishi suddenly fell to the ground, panting, his brows contorted in pain, his skin pale.

The ninja captain's swordplay has just caused him very serious injuries.

If he didn't have natural energy, it is estimated that he would already be a corpse.

"Are you okay?"

Ayane ran to support Shiraishi and asked with a worried look on her face.

"It's okay, it will take some time for Chakra to recover. I can't use medical ninjutsu during this time."

Ayane nodded and was about to back Shiraishi back, but footsteps came from behind.

It was the root ninja that returned.

Seeing Shiraishi's incomparably weak state, everything was immediately clear.

"So that's the case. Was it also a trick now? You're insidious, I was almost tricked by you. If I don't come back, maybe you guys can survive."

Ayane froze.

Cold sweat also appeared on Shiraishi's pale face.

"Haha, aren't you afraid of me? I killed your captain."

What is Shiraishi trying to use to save this situation?

"You probably never told the truth. I'm sorry, because of your character, I don't trust your words."

The root ninja looked at Shiraishi with eyes that saw through everything.

"Hey, that's very ironic, I-"

Shiraishi is still trying to use his words to guide the root ninja, lead his thinking to a dead end, and resolve the current crisis.

However, the other party is very confident in his hunches, and he is filled with suspicion in every word of Baishi's words.

"Secret Technique: Insect Sphere!"

The black cloud of insects flew at high speed.

Shiraishi pushed Ayane aside, but when his turn came, he barely managed to dodge and roll on the ground.

He ignored the bugs and ran towards the enemy ninja.

The ninja couldn't let Shiraishi get his wish, and so he released a large number of black insects from his sleeves again, erecting a thick barrier in front of him.

The ninja expected Shiraishi to be surrounded by insects that brutally devoured him.

He was filled with dark feelings for revenge.

The sound of footsteps came from behind.

After the root ninja turned his head, the ninja knife quickly cleared his neck.

With blood flying, the ninja sword, which was on the verge of breaking, was finally crushed and broke in half.

The broken, bloodstained blade fell and plunged straight into the ground.

The sound of the broken blade falling to the ground sounded, and the root ninja's body fell to the ground at the same time.

He stared at Shiraishi with reluctant and resentful eyes, opened his mouth, and seemed to want to say something.

While panting, Shiraishi crouched down, closed the eyes of the root ninja who couldn't reconcile and sighed softly.

"Sorry, I'm such a despicable person. You're right, the word I say to you is full of deceit. But isn't the reason for falling into the trap because you think you've made the right judgment?"

Ayane watched this scene from the side, she didn't know what to say.

Should I describe Shiraishi's character as despicable or terrifying?

His wounds were real, but not so serious that he couldn't fight back.

He wasn't sure he could kill the opponent, so I set up a deception trap, let the enemy judge and verify for himself, and then come to the conclusion that he thinks it was correct.

If you don't believe the enemy's words, then you must believe his judgment.

It was only at the last moment that he realized that it was still a trap carefully designed by Shiraishi.

It was the first time Ayane had seen this type of battle between ninjas.

If Ruri's battle was a simple, crude crush, then Shiraishi's battle was deceptive.

Shiraishi was lying on the floor with no strength, and he reached his limit.

"What a bad day. Roots, I'll remember..."

After muttering these words, Shiraishi closed his eyes tiredly and wanted to get some rest.
