Assassination

"Are you a medical ninja?"

"Yea..."

"Come with me."

"Yea..."

When Shiraishi turned around, he could see that the person controlling the puppet was a beautiful woman with long brown hair. She didn't look more than 30 years old and recognized her as one of the two puppet masters of the sand troops.

It's just that she's broken an arm now, and the wound is bandaged, which affects her overall image.

But for a puppet master of her level, even if he loses an arm, his strength won't drop much.

After all, the puppet master's strength lies in his puppets.

The other party led the way unsuspecting, seemingly unprepared against Shiraishi if you ignore the doll that was holding the Kunai around Shiraishi's neck.

The other party has already fallen to this point, it is expected to be cautious.

It was a sturdy tree that needed over a dozen people to hug, and it wasn't necessarily able to wrap it around, but it was hollow at the bottom, exposing a dark hole, and a little light could shine through.

Shiraishi was forced inside, and with the light outside, he could see some of the conditions inside.

A red-haired man was lying on the floor very weak, with a shocking incision on his chest. Although he was hastily wrapped in a bandage, the bandage was also dyed red with blood. This hemostasis can only stop for a while.

After a while, I'll have to abandon him and run away on my own.

However, Shiraishi learned smartly that the two puppet masters are Chiyo's son and daughter-in-law, and they are a very loving ninja couple. Compared to allowing your husband to live here, they should keep in mind that being captured by the enemy is far worse than death. Suicide is your best choice in an unfavorable situation.

Ninjas are human too, no matter how much they suppress emotions, they just make them stronger.

If you only count the benefits and losses, every human being will be a wise man.

But in reality, there are often not so many wise men who have working brains.

Compared to gains and losses, human beings are perceptive creatures who are more easily influenced by emotions.

The best choice for such a woman is to kill her husband, dispose of the body, prevent information leakage, and leave as soon as possible in peace.

But she didn't.

"Save him, don't do tricks."

The woman's short words also made Baishi understand very well what she meant.

"Understood. If I save him, can you be merciful and spare my life?"

The woman did not speak.

The puppet pressed the kunai into Baishi's neck, almost cutting her throat.

Shiraishi shrugged helplessly.

A faint green light appeared on his right hand, his left hand slowly uncovered the puppet master's bandage, the other part was in a coma, unconsciously groaning in pain, and Shiraishi treated the puppet master with his medical ninjutsu. The wound location should heal as quickly as possible.

"This is the wound caused by the Wind Chakra attribute... I need ten minutes to heal the wound."

"As a student of his, don't you know the secret of the white-toothed saber technique?"

The female puppeteer frowned.

Shiraishi shook her head.

He only knew that Sakumo's sword skills were very powerful, but he didn't know much about the secrets in it.

Perhaps the enemy knew this, but the enemies who knew the secret of the White Fang Sword Technique may have died.

How many Konoha people know, maybe they are also under wraps.

After all, it's unwise to explore a ninja's secrets casually, and it's easy to cause disharmony among peers.

Especially for a powerful jōnin like Sakumo, his sword skills can only be known in detail by high-ranking officials such as the Hokage.

As time passed, the puppet master's appearance improved a lot, and his breathing slowly calmed down.

The puppet master looked at Shiraishi with a little surprise and said, "Your medical ninjutsu is very good, no wonder it will be organized by the Konoha side."

She knew how serious her husband's injury was. She didn't expect Shiraishi to handle this in ten minutes, or without surgery.

So she was relieved to think that Shiraishi's jōnin was Sakumo.

The medical ninja that follows White Fang may not be excellent in combat, but medical ninjutsu must be excellent.

Even most medical-nin in his Sand Village, including those with excellent medical skills, may not have Shiraishi's excellent level of medical ninjutsu.

Just like that, a mediocre Genin was qualified to follow Sakumo.

Konoha deserves to be the birthplace of geniuses.

"The wound has healed, but there are still serious wounds inside the body. If I want to heal it completely, I need an operating room and some herbs."

Shiraishi stepped aside and stood faithfully.

"No, that's it for now."

There was a gentle expression on the puppet master's face.

As a string in his heart slowly relaxed, the puppet master lying on the floor suddenly screamed, his lips turned red and he coughed violently, coughing strange dark red blood from his mouth.

Poisoned!

The puppet master's face suddenly changed in shock, and as this terrible thought passed through her mind, the five fingers of just one arm began to twitch, her eyes revealed terrifying killing intent, and she was ready to go. control the puppet to kill.

Her movements are not slow. To some extent, her fingers are more flexible than Shiraishi, but Shiraishi already planned.

With the puppet master's cry as a signal, the blue chakras were condensed in her hands, forming a blade-like shape.

Turn around and wave.

Just as the puppet was about to act, it was cut to pieces by Baishi's hand knife.

"you!"

That kind of reaction and speed is just not something Genin can do.

The puppet master finally realized the seriousness of the matter.

All her strength is concentrated in the puppet.

Her puppet had been cut to pieces by Sakumo's short white-toothed knife before, and now it was her husband's puppet that she controlled, which was also damaged at this point.

Even if you want to get a new spare puppet, it takes time.

However, Shiraishi's speed and responsiveness surprised her. Without thinking about it, when Shiraishi turned around and cut the doll, she ran out of the tree hole with her husband who was poisoned and vomiting blood.

All she can do at the moment is escape.

As soon as he ran outside and didn't run a few steps, a small figure suddenly landed in front of him.

In scarlet eyes, the Sharingan spun.

"We will..."

The puppet master stiffened, still, unable to move.

The husband rolled over on the floor, coughing painfully, his lips were completely black.

Handbag!

The blade pierced the puppeteer's back to her chest, and her heart was also stabbed.

The puppet master simply fell forward and died with a lack of will in her eyes.

With the bloodstained Shinobi Sword in her hand, Baishi stared indifferently at the puppet master's corpse, then walked to the side of the poisoned and unconscious puppet master, slashed him in the chest without hesitation, and ended up with life.

"It's a lot easier than planned."

A smile appeared on Ruri's face.

"Of course, the puppet master's most important combat power is in the puppet. When there's no way to hit the puppet master himself, it's also a way to find the enemy's breach to destroy the puppet."

If he had Sakumo's strength, he could only look for opportunities to attack the puppet master himself. There was no need to perform such a frustrating scene and waste time.

"Looks like we're luckier, and you get credit for those two."

Baishi generously pushed the credit to Ruri, and he just needed to keep hiding behind the scenes.

Ruri nodded and accepted the credit frankly.

"By the way, I forgot to mention that the Yamanaka people are good at getting information from dead bodies. The premise is to ensure the integrity of the brain, remember to clean it and leave no traces."

Ruri suddenly remembered something and said.

"I see. It's troublesome, and I'm wasting my medicine again, making it look like I'm doing something bad."

Shiraishi groaned casually, found two syringes filled with lavender liquid from the ninja bag and walked towards the two corpses on the floor.

"Don't complain, this time I caught such a big fish, the village has great rewards."

Ruri took a syringe from Baishi's hand and plunged it into the corpse's neck, pumping out the liquid.

Immediately afterwards, I saw the meridians on the surface of the corpse with violence, as if trying to break the surface of the skin.

This hideous phenomenon lasted less than three seconds, and the corpse returned to its previous normal appearance as if nothing had happened.

"I heard that the Hokage has a book of seals that specifically records all sorts of powerful secrets and forbidden arts..."

"Don't even think about that kind of thing, the village system won't be so generous to irrelevant people. This was only possible when the first Hokage was in power."

Ruri poured cold water on her plans.

After handling the tracks, Baishi and Ruri returned to the sentry post with two corpses.
