Chapter 9 Support, Cover the Rear
"I can still hold on!" Tanaka panted. "I have already used the reverse psychic technique to notify the rear. Someone will come to support us. Let's hold on for a while longer."
One of the four, a Root Jonin, looked on coldly and said, "Leave the information to me."
"As the Anbu of Konoha, you should be prepared to sacrifice your life. If you can't do it, just block the Iwagakure who are trying to stop you."
"You!" The ninja who was supporting Akita glared at the Root Jonin in front of him.
The jonin named Akita interrupted him and said in a deep voice: "He is right. If things cannot be disobeyed, I will stop the pursuers for you. Mission first!"
.........
"Tap Tap!"
The three-person team traveled in a V-shaped formation, with Daisuke Aoki at the front, and Hinata Ling and Luo Hao on his left and right.
While on the way, Luo Hao secretly observed his two temporary teammates.
"One is full of passion, but lacks the aura of a protagonist. It's clear that he's destined to die young. The other one, from the Hyuga branch, is um... tolerant and magnanimous, comparable to Hinata."
Luo Hao keenly sensed something was wrong: "Ling!"
"Bai Yan!" Hinata Aya heard Luo Hao's call and immediately opened her Byakugan and began to observe. The veins around her eyes were bulging, making her look less hazy and more hideous than in the comics.
"A large amount of chakra is detected ahead."
"How many?!" Luo Hao asked calmly.
"Fourteen, ten are chasing, and four are running." Hinata Aya mouthed to Luo Hao and the others.
The first four should be the targets this time, and the ten next year should be the pursuers.
Ten, then there should be at least three teams. In war, due to various reasons, it is very normal that the number of people in a team does not reach the full strength.
Or maybe it was the Anbu people, a full-strength team.
If it is the former, it is not bad. There are always weak people who can find opportunities to exploit.
But if it is the latter, that would be bad. None of those who can enter the dark side are weak. They are all the elites among the elites.
The only uncertainty now is how many jonin the other side has.
Uchiha Luo Hao, Hinata Aya and Aoki Daisuke are not Kakashi, who can become a jonin at the age of twelve.
Of course, they are not the "most powerful Genin in Konoha", but just three Chunins.
But they had no choice but to do something as they were here to carry out a mission.
Thinking of this, Uchiha Luo Hao made a gesture to the two people beside him, and the three of them hid.
Taking a deep breath, Luo Hao had almost observed the current situation.
The other party didn't know how many jonin there were.
This is not good news.
Even if there is only one jonin, the rest are chunins and cannot be ignored.
The world of Naruto is very strange. Even someone as strong as Uchiha Madara can still be killed.
Look at Black Zetsu who spoke heart-to-heart with Uchiha Madara, and Naruto who used seduction to make Kaguya-hime infatuated.
Seeing the enemy getting closer and closer.
"Fire Release: Fire Phoenix Immortal Technique!"
Uchiha Luo Hao was not polite either. He jumped out immediately, formed hand seals, and released a ninjutsu at the ten Rock Ninjas.
After doing all this, Uchiha Luo Hao immediately cast a shadow clone, and then his real body used a substitution technique, standing firmly on the top of the tree, watching everything below, preparing for a sneak attack.
The shadow clone used force from his feet to perform the technique of instant body movement, while at the same time he drew his sword, swung it, and then turned to dodge, all in one smooth movement.
He directly killed a Genin of the Rock Ninja who was a little slow to react.
"Three little brats?" The Rock Ninja's jonin sneered after seeing this scene: "How courageous! Kill them!"
In fact, there was no need for the Rock Ninja Jonin to give any orders, as the other Rock Ninja Chunin and Genin had already drawn their weapons and attacked the two men.
And at this moment, he suddenly felt a very bad sense of danger in his heart, and the cold feeling made his hair stand on end!
A black flash burst out from the woods. Luo Hao descended from the sky, holding a short sword, and tried to chop the rock ninja jonin.
Fast, unbelievably fast!
The touch told him that his clothes were torn and even his back was cut by the kunai!
In a flash, this Iwagakure jonin immediately formed hand seals and activated the substitution technique instantly.
In the most dangerous moments, the simplest ninjutsu is often the most effective. As a jonin, he has practiced every ninjutsu to perfection.
At the most dangerous moment, the jonin had already retreated, so the rest became much easier.
"What a pity!" Luo Hao sighed. He is indeed a Jonin and has a strong sense of combat.
Aoki Daisuke, who had been waiting for a long time, suddenly jumped out and killed an Iwagakure with one sword.
Hinata Ling's killing power was not that strong, he only repelled one pursuer.
The three threw a smoke bomb.
A jump appeared in front of the four-member team.
"How are you?" Luo Hao asked seriously.
"Not too good, we have wounded!" A ninja quickly replied:
"We need to get back to the camp and get treated as soon as possible."
The leader of the Root Corps interrupted coldly, "I told you to just abandon him and let him stop the pursuers for us. Now he can't even lift a kunai."
The air suddenly froze.
"You...how can you do this!" the ninja who was supporting Akita said gritting his teeth.
It was obvious that they were a team that had just been put together temporarily.
"We in the Root are not like you Anbu who procrastinate." The Root ninja said disdainfully.
If there were factional fights in Konoha, the Hokage faction would unite with the elders faction to be wary of the Root faction, and then work together to suppress the Uchiha clan.
No, this seems to be the reality!
The fence-sitters followed the Hokage's footsteps, holding the thorny roots in one hand to suppress the Uchiha clan.
Looking at it this way, the Uchiha clan is such a miserable clan!
Oh, I'm an Uchiha too.
I am so miserable!
"Whoosh whoosh!"
Kunai and shurikens shot through the smoke and towards everyone.
Everyone dodged in a hurry. The only Anbu who was still able to move came in front of everyone with a flash body technique and formed seals with both hands: "Ninja technique, Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique!"
Throw out two shurikens directly.
One is two, two is four, four is eight, eight is sixteen, sixteen is thirty-two.
The kunai shurikens in the sky collided with each other, making a ping-pong sound.
"Take advantage of now!" Luo Hao shouted, and formed seals with his hands:
"Art fire escape ho fireball!"
"Wind Escape, big breakthrough!" Daisuke Aoki performed Wind Escape.
Wind and fire intertwined, and the fireball, which was originally about five meters in size, instantly expanded to ten meters, like a curtain of fire, blocking the view.
After breaking off the enemy's pursuit, several people gathered together and discussed while running:
"No, if we continue like this, we will be wiped out."
"We need someone to stay behind to cover our retreat!" said the captain of the root unit coldly.
The so-called roots have no past and no name.
For the mission, he can give everything, including his life.
