Naruto: I Borrow from the Future

thump!

The headless corpse of the demon leech fell to the ground.

The cross-section of the neck, charred by Jian Yueyan's blade, still couldn't stop the restless blood from gushing out!

Nohara Rin was in a daze for a while, until Aoya gently placed her on the ground, at which point she came to her senses, feeling slightly shy:

"Thank you, Qingye."

That was incredibly fast!

That very powerful Iwagakure Jonin was killed before he could even react!

Is this Qingye's strength?

No wonder Minato-sensei said that Aoya held back in his match against Kakashi!

Qingye waved his hand dismissively, asking, "What's the situation on your end?"

Kakashi and the others were clearly from the southern route, so how did they all end up here?

"After we encountered this person, Kakashi was injured in the battle, and I was also captured by him."

Rin Nohara explained in a low voice.

Blame her!

She was too weak and couldn't be of any help in the battle.

They could have bandaged Kakashi's wounds, but instead, they were captured by this Iwagakure Jonin.

"I wonder how Kakashi and Obito are doing." Nohara Rin looked dejected.

"They should be on their way to rescue you."

Hyuga Himon stepped forward and shook his head: "It's hard to say. Will Kakashi really come?"

He had heard that after Kakashi's White Fang died, all he cared about was the mission, and he didn't care if he abandoned his teammates.

As for Obito...

Kurenai Yuhi was certain: "Obito is definitely on his way."

Aoya and Hinata Himon listened with expressions of agreement.

Those of them, who were Obito's classmates, knew all too well the extent of Obito's infatuation with Rin.

"However, I still didn't see Obito and the other guy."

Hinata Hido activated his Byakugan again, scanning the area before looking at Nohara Rin and shaking his head.

What should we do now?

Nohara Rin was saved, but then what?

"I can hide nearby and then meet up with Obito and the others!" Nohara Rin immediately said; she couldn't cause any more trouble for Aoya and his team.

"Not feasible."

Qingye rejected it outright.

If we leave Nohara Rin here, who knows if Obito or another Iwagakure ninja will arrive first?

If Nohara Rin were captured by other Iwagakure ninjas, wouldn't all his efforts to save her have been in vain?

After a moment of contemplation, Aoya quickly made a decision: "Rin, leave a message for Obito and the others, and then come with us towards Kannabi Bridge."

Having an extra medical ninja might come in handy.

As for whether this would deviate from the original plot, Qingye didn't consider it at all.

His butterfly wings have already completely distorted the Battle of Kannabi Bridge!

Besides, as a time traveler, what's wrong with changing the plot a little?!

The plot is the same whether you're in it or not, so what's the point of having you!

"good!"

Nohara Rin nodded vigorously.

……

More than ten minutes later.

Obito Uchiha arrived just then.

Upon seeing the gruesome sight of the leech's dismembered body, his expression suddenly changed.

"Lin!"

Where is Lin? Where is my Lin?!

Suddenly, a piece of cloth in a nearby corner caught Obito's eye.

"What... what is this?!"

Obito picked it up and turned pale. Wasn't this Rin's clothes?

It still smells like Lin!

Damn it!

What exactly happened?

That Iwagakure Jonin is dead, but Rin is nowhere to be found. Instead, fragments of Rin's clothes are left here!

"Aaaaaah!!!"

Obito's eyes turned red.

"You idiot, stop shouting behind enemy lines!"

Kakashi Hatake, with bandages wrapped around his shoulder, caught up with him, looking annoyed.

Obito was taken aback when he saw this: "Kakashi? What are you doing here?"

Didn't this guy say he was going on a mission and refused to rescue Lin?

"..."

Kakashi remained silent, recalling what Obito had said earlier.

"I think Konoha's White Fang is a hero."

In the ninja world, those who break the rules are called trash, but those who don't cherish their comrades are even worse than trash!

After much deliberation, Kakashi ultimately made the same choice as his father had made years before: he followed them.

"Let's not talk about this anymore, where's Rin?" Kakashi shook his head and asked.

"Lin, Lin, she..."

Obito's eyes reddened, and he almost cried as he held the tattered piece of cloth in his hand.

Lin, where are you?!

Kakashi glanced around, then looked at the gruesome death of the demon leech.

"Someone must have intervened to save Lin."

"After that person rescued Lin, Lin left this as a message for us."

But who could it be?

Is it Qingye's team?

impossible!

Kakashi looked at the unscathed torso of the demon leech and, considering the surrounding environment, it was clear that this person had probably been killed instantly without much fighting.

With the strength of this Iwagakure Jonin, could Aoya really do something like this?

Sniff sniff—

Kakashi's nose twitched slightly, and following the scent, he looked at a nearby rock.

"This is where the pieces of Lin's clothes were found, right?"

"Yeah, so what?"

Kakashi flipped the stone over and picked up a piece of paper.

After deciphering the encrypted message in a special way, Kakashi breathed a sigh of relief:

"Lin is alright, Qingye saved her."

"However, Qingye was worried about leaving Lin here alone, so he took Lin with him and left. Lin told us to meet him at the Kannabi Bridge."

As he spoke, Kakashi couldn't help but glance at the headless corpse of the demon leech, his brows furrowing.

This really was made by Qingye?

With this Iwagakure Jonin's swordsmanship level, he was killed by Aoya without much resistance!

How on earth did Aoya do that?!

"Uchiha Aoya... Tch, it's that guy!"

Obito pursed his lips.

But I was ultimately relieved, as long as Lin was alright.

"We've been delayed for too long, let's keep going."

Kakashi was also relieved.

My teammates are okay, and the mission can continue, which is perfect.

"It's all your fault!"

Obito glared at Kakashi with an annoyed look: "If you weren't injured, I wouldn't have wasted time bandaging you up."

If it weren't for that, he could have caught up and rescued Rin much faster on his own, and there would have been no need for that guy Uchiha Aoya!

Suddenly, a rustling sound came from behind.

As soon as the two turned around, they felt a gentle breeze on their faces.

Kakashi's expression changed, and he lunged forward, quickly pushing Obito away. Then, with a swift motion, he slashed Obito across his left eye, causing blood to splatter!

The figure of Daishi, a Jonin from Iwagakure, appeared.

Ninja Art: Camouflage Concealment Technique!

"Kakashi!"

Obito was startled.

Overwhelmed with self-reproach, a special chakra flowed from his mind, and his eyes gradually turned scarlet.

"Damn it, those bastards from Konoha!"

Hikari, a Jonin from Iwagakure, followed. Seeing the corpse of the Demon Leech on the ground nearby, he gritted his teeth and said, "The Demon Leech actually died at your hands!"

"Kill them! Avenge the leeches!"

Daishi said coldly, and activated the camouflage concealment technique again.
