Naruto: First Love

Chapter 217 Escape
Under the Shinra Tensei, everyone around was bounced away.

Xiao Jing had experienced the Shinra Tensei once before, so he was not surprised. When he saw Huo Wu's eyes turned into a vortex, he took two steps back and stabbed his dagger into a root member.

However, Huo Wu failed to launch the attack successfully.

Without chakra, nothing can be done.

A good cook cannot cook without rice. Without chakra, Huo Wu can only run again!

Huo Wu was stunned for a second and almost cried out of embarrassment. If she didn't run away now, when would she run?
Xiao Jing also discovered that Huo Wu had no chakra left and couldn't even use any ninjutsu. He ran over and watched helplessly as Huo Wu ran on her own two legs. How could she run away when she had no chakra at all?
He ran over and picked up Huo Wu.

Huo Wu raised her right hand and was about to open Xiao Jing's hand.

Xiao Jing quickly reminded: "It's me, you're running too slow!"

He naturally noticed Huo Wu's rejection of him. He couldn't even hug her?

Huo Wu was naturally not used to his touch, but Xiao Jing was right.

She has no chakra, but she just runs like this, how is it possible that the people behind her can't catch up?

Frowning slightly, Huo Wu did not resist anymore.

The gate of Konoha was very close. Before the people guarding the door had time to react, they saw a figure rushing out. The two looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes.

However, what happened next was the most shocking. Four or five young men, all carrying short swords, chased after them. They looked murderous and moved very fast, more like Anbu.

They are all Konoha's ninjas, right? What's going on? Konoha has just experienced a huge change, and someone is already restless again?
Another figure came from a distance, just as fast.

With his white hair like a broomstick and a mask on, he can be recognized in an instant as Konoha's number one technician, Kakashi Hatake.

"Kakashi!" The two guarding the gate wanted to call him.

However, when Kakashi looked at Huo Wu being carried away in Xiaojing's arms, his breathing stagnated. Without thinking about anything, a surge of blood rushed to his head and he rushed over faster.

Unconsciously, he had Raikiri on his hand and opened his Sharingan, watching Xiaojing running with Huo Wu in his arms.

"Hmm?" Huo Wu sensed the movement behind her, turned around, and saw Kakashi, her face lit up with joy.

Kakashi, why is he here?

When he was forced to leave Konoha, Kakashi came?
However, Kakashi rushed towards her with Raikiri? Why? To kill her? Did Kakashi not want her to leave Konoha and would rather let her die in Konoha or in the Anbu? Why did he save her before?

No, Kakashi shouldn't be that kind of person.

Huo Wu thought she knew Kakashi quite well. Kakashi had done so many things, but he had never forced anyone, nor had he taken the initiative to make decisions for others.

"Kakashi?" Huo Wu spoke and called Kakashi.

Kakashi felt relieved when he saw the joy in Huo Wu's eyes when she saw him.

It seems that she is looking forward to her own arrival. She is still the previous Huo Wu, the Huo Wu before she encountered Itachi.

Huo Wu's love for him should not have changed, so why did she leave? Did Xiao Jing take her away by force?
He always knew that Xiao Jing from the Intelligence Department liked Huo Wu. When he went to the Anbu, Xiao Jing's expression said it all.

During the Chunin Exam, Orochimaru launched the Konoha destruction plan, and Huo Wu and Kakashi were injured. It seems that the operation was also arranged by this Xiaojing, right?

This Xiaojing is too concerned about Huo Wu.

It would be fine if he was simply from the Intelligence Department, but looking at Xiaojing's actions, he was skillfully using some of the Anbu's tricks, so he might be from the Anbu, right?

Is he an undercover agent placed by the Anbu in the Intelligence Department, or is he someone who has already left the Anbu?
Kakashi believed that he had never met this person named Koi when he was in the Anbu.

If Xiaojing is an undercover agent of the Anbu and wants to take action against Huo Wu, then he must be an undercover agent of Danzo, or - an undercover agent of some other country.

No one except Kumogakure knows Huo Wu's identity. Of course there is Orochimaru. However, Orochimaru's undercover agent was Kabuto before. Now that Kabuto left, could it be that he has trained Koi again?

Kakashi met Koi during the Chunin Exams, and he became more convinced that Koi was a ninja who had quit the Anbu.

"Kakashi, be careful!" Huo Wu jumped out of Xiaojing's arms and was about to greet Kakashi.

The Raikiri in Kakashi's hand also disappeared when Huo Wu jumped down.

He reflexively went to pick up Huo Wu, and an ANBU member appeared behind him.

Kakashi held Huo Wu in his left hand, and slashed with the kunai in his right hand, cutting the waist and abdomen of the Root member behind him, and left before the blood flowed out.

Huo Wu's eyes lit up.

Kakashi's strength has increased!

He no longer relied solely on the Sharingan and the ninjutsu copied with the Sharingan, nor did his chakra amount being less than hers.

During this month, I saw Kakashi very rarely.

Huo Wu thought that Kakashi was deliberately distancing himself from her. After all, Kakashi had said before that protecting her was just a responsibility.

Unexpectedly, Kakashi went to train his chakra.

Although Kakashi's chakra is still not as much as it was in her heyday, it is much more than before.

The Rinnegan and Sharingan faded, and Huo Wu's eyes returned to their dark color, but once again they were not as bright as before and became blurry.

The blood in the corner of the eye was still reminding Kakashi that Huo Wu had used the ability of the Mangekyō Sharingan before.

Huo Wu, who had not yet recovered to her peak level and whose chakra amount was still low, was simply making the situation worse by fighting at this time.

Xiaojing found that his arms were empty, and Huo Wu had quickly jumped off his body and jumped towards Kakashi.

When Kakashi came, Xiaojing clearly saw that Huo Wu couldn't hide her joy. She really liked Kakashi!
Because of Kakashi, I can't even tell what the current situation is.

Some disappointment is certain, but then he smiled bitterly. Didn't he know long ago that Kakashi was the only one in Huo Wu's heart? He had already chosen to protect her, so there was no need to escape.

Kakashi held Huo Wu, gathered Raikiri in his hand, opened his Sharingan, and with a hissing sound, Kakashi rushed towards the remaining four Anbu members.

That look of strong murderous intent in his heart brought back the feeling he had when he saw ninjas from other countries after Lin's death.

Kakashi didn't need to think about their purpose and origins. He knew that there was only one person in Konoha who dared to attack Huo Wu openly, and that was Danzo, who was high above Konoha and managed the Root.

When Kakashi stopped, there were only a few corpses left on the ground. After Kakashi performed a fire ninjutsu, even the corpses disappeared.

The two Chunins guarding the gate of Konoha heard the fighting noises coming from outside and were curious. Were those people fighting? Why?
Just as he was about to leave for the Hokage building to report, he saw another figure approaching from the distance in Konoha Village.

This time, it was a familiar child - Uchiha Sasuke.
