Naruto: Reshaping the Shinobi World with Sasori

Chapter 56 The Cruelty of the Battlefield and the Premature Deaths of Two Konoha Youths

Quiet.

The air suddenly seemed to freeze solid.

Yano's students had just landed under the tree and were about to set off to circle around into the thick fog outside the forest.

The three figures formed a triangle, surrounding them.

Although they were a little startled, as soon as Yano jumped down, several students gathered around him and assumed a defensive stance.

Yubi, Sasori, and Arai each stood on a tree, looking down at them from their elevated positions.

"The war between Sunagakure and Konoha is over... Do you want to reignite the conflict? Kumogakure has withdrawn its troops, and this war is completely over. If it's just Sunagakure, you have no chance of winning against Konoha. Given your current situation, Sunagakure probably doesn't have the resources to support a large-scale war..."

Yano's eyes flashed as he looked up at the three of them, his throat bobbing before he spoke.

"He... seems to know a lot about our Sunagakure. It seems... Konoha has also gathered a lot of information about us."

Yubi smiled, a slight curve appearing at the corner of his mouth.

The scorpion remained silent.

The fact that the Konoha ninjas in front of them are threatening war is simply laughable.

The Ninja World War has indeed ended, but the conflicts between the villages have never stopped.

The fact that the other party could say such a thing is not because they are brainless... but because they really had no other choice.

"He knows us."

Arai said calmly.

He could see a hint of determination and apprehension in the other person's face.

This expression indicates that one is fully aware of the disparity in strength between oneself and the enemy... and has already made an assessment in one's mind.

He was preparing to die.

Yubi's gaze swept over several Konoha boys who were about his age.

Ok?

Upon catching a glimpse of one of them, she suddenly raised an eyebrow slightly, feeling a strange sense of familiarity.

Who?

Yubi's heart skipped a beat.

Those that he found familiar... were mostly characters from the storyline.

It's just that they're still quite young, so... it's not very noticeable.

"I feel like I've seen you before."

Yubi smiled slightly and pointed to the familiar-looking boy.

The latter was tense all over and seemed somewhat uneasy.

The boy was taken aback when he heard what Yubi said.

I don't know you.

The boy replied, his lips dry.

Scorpion glanced at Yubi, wondering what was wrong with him.

As a member of Sunagakure, how could he possibly know someone from Konoha...? Yubi has never been to Konoha.

"What's your name?" Yubi asked.

"Mountain City Green Leaf".

The boy glanced at the teacher and actually answered.

Clearly, Yamashiro Aoba didn't want to appear spineless, so she gave a rather firm answer.

It's him.

Upon hearing this, Yubi suddenly understood.

I remember now, it's that character who, like Itachi Uchiha, loves crows, and is a future special Jonin for Konoha's intelligence department.

As I grew up, I liked to wear sunglasses.

He often appears with another minor character, Raito Nagashi, and the two seem to have a combo attack.

"Could he be that guy, Namikaze Raikkonen?"

Yubi looked at the boy standing next to Yamashiro Aoba, but he didn't recognize him.

Now that Yamashiro Aoba is mentioned, Yubi feels that this guy's appearance is somewhat similar to the rather vague image in his memory...

What impressed him about Namiya Raito was the scar on his face.

"Sorry, I mistook you for someone else."

Yubi laughed, touched his hair, and said casually.

Scorpion frowned. "What's with all the dawdling... kill them all..."

After saying that, he flicked his finger.

Several puppets instantly descended from the shade of the trees above the Konoha team.

"spread!"

Yano yelled, "Run!"

He knew very well that his team had no chance against the three men in front of them.

At this moment, the mist concealment technique used by Lin Waiwuyin actually provided a form of protection for Shancheng Qingye and the others.

There's another Jonin companion there, which is better than their team fighting the enemy alone.

boom!

Yano fired a smoke grenade from his gauntlet, which exploded at his feet, sending up a cloud of thick smoke that obscured his vision.

He was creating opportunities for the students to escape.

Like explosive tags, these ninja tools are very common on the battlefield.

Without any communication, the three of them set off immediately.

Arai went straight to the Jonin, while leaving the three Genin to Sasori and Yubi.

When you meet someone on the battlefield, as long as they are the enemy... since you've met them, there's no need to leave them alive.

Especially when the other party has already recognized them.

In the smoke, Yamashiro Aoba had just started moving and darted a few meters when a dark figure precisely intercepted him.

It was Yubi.

"So fast! It was clearly Yano-sensei who released the smoke bomb first. Given their distance and positioning, it would have been much more difficult for them to land and interfere with us."

Aoba's heart skipped a beat, but his hands didn't stop moving. He gripped the kunai tightly and attacked Yubi's vital point.

After several thrusts, he found that his opponent had easily dodged them. He then instantly pressed down and launched a series of physical attacks on Yubi, using both hands and feet, in an attempt to force him back.

Aoba's agile body spun in the air, her leg shadows sweeping across the scene.

But Yubi, standing in front of him, easily parried all his attacks with just a few raised hands and a few deflections... without even moving his feet much.

"Although he is very young, he has made a judgment on the battle situation in a short time and focuses on running away. Moreover... his physical skills are very smooth. Not bad." Yubi observed while blocking the attacks.

His physical strength and skill level are...not bad.

Swoosh...

Several kunai, pulled by steel wire, were hurled at us.

Yubi tilted her head to avoid it.

Unexpectedly, the kunai flew past his head and, with the pull of Aoba's hand, unexpectedly turned back to attack.

Yubi was delighted.

The way he manipulates these ninja tools is similar to his sword intent manipulation, only it's rougher and less refined.

In fact, there are many similar methods in the fighting styles of the ninja world. For example, the puppeteers of Sunagakure use chakra threads to control weapons and strike targets at specific points.

However, none of these techniques can achieve the same agility and stealth as his throwing knives, which allow him to kill from a distance... nor do they possess that level of agility.

Its speed and power... are also very poor.

Of course, the strength of a method depends on the skill of the user... Here, Yubi is referring only to the technicality of his self-created ninjutsu.

"He has a solid foundation in taijutsu, grappling, and ninja tools... He's a well-rounded character, though he might not be on par with the 'Golden Generation' of Konoha... but he still has a lot of potential to become a Special Jonin..."

Yubi Passage.

Seeing Yubi dodge away again as if he had eyes in the back of his head, Aoba, after spinning and landing, immediately formed hand seals.

Prepare to unleash ninjutsu.

However, his gesture was only halfway through.

His body arched up unexpectedly, his pupils dilated, and he spat out saliva.

A sharp pain shot through my abdomen.

Yubi analyzed his movements and fighting style, closed in, and with a simple knee strike, almost made Aoba lose consciousness.

In the instant he lost his balance, Aoba endured the pain and raised his arm to retaliate.

But Yubi's hand gripped his wrist, suppressing his counterattack with a grappling technique.

Then... another thread swept across.

With a thud.

Aoba's body fell to the ground.

There was no further movement.

A red line burst from between the skin and flesh on his neck, slowly oozing blood.

The whole thing took about a minute.

Yubi handled it with ease... If he wanted, Aoba would have died the moment he landed.

Because, from beginning to end, Aoba was completely unprepared for his "threads".

I didn't even notice.

[Ding! The host has killed a story character, resulting in a negative experience gain of +200!]

Yubi heard the warning in her mind.

"So little?"

He was somewhat surprised.

Aoba is, after all, a future special Jonin of Konoha... Although he doesn't have much influence in Konoha, he's not entirely a background character.

"It must be due to his skill level. To me right now, his level is not good enough... so his experience points have been reduced," Yubi guessed.

"Please note... Because the story character you killed was from a special era and background in Konoha, you have gained +8 Konoha Hatred Points, and will be targeted and hostile by some Konoha story characters."

Ok?

The system suddenly started beeping again.

Yubi's heart skipped a beat.

Does this refer to... Konoha's Golden Generation?

Or perhaps... an even more dangerous role...

Yubi thought for a moment and then shook his head.

Although it may cause some trouble... it won't have a big impact.

Not just Konoha, but everyone in the ninja world, except for him.

As long as everyone's stance and camp are different, they are opponents... regardless of who the enemy is.

For ninjas, this is a dangerous and cruel world, as it has always been.

Peaceful times are slightly better, but that's only a temporary facade.

The underlying logic remains the same.

Swish.

Yubi rose up in a puff of white smoke and darted away.

To pursue other goals.

When he arrived at the scene, he saw that another Konoha genin had been severely injured by Sasori's puppet and was on the verge of death.

The reason he wasn't killed was because Sasori wanted to extract information about Konoha's current situation from the other party.

Every bit of information we can gather is valuable.

Even if the other party is unlikely to know any important clues or secrets, it would be good to understand the current situation of Konoha.

"Why is it so slow?"

Scorpion looked at Yubi as he approached and spoke.

"hehe."

Yubi gave an awkward laugh and offered no explanation.

Even with the smoke bombs interfering, Sasori instantly used his puppet to kill a genin and then set his sights on this one.

He walked up to the boy who was slumped under a tree, leaning against the trunk... his consciousness was already somewhat blurred.

A small pool of blood had already formed on the ground…

Yubi crouched down. "Your name is Namishita Raido, right?"

The boy's unfocused pupils contracted slightly upon hearing these words.

Yubi understood.

"Did you get anything out of them?"

He turned to look at the scorpion.

The scorpion remained silent.

Clearly, even when faced with the threat of death, Raito had no intention of betraying the village.

"Take care."

Yubi was not surprised and slowly got up.

After uttering two words, he ended his life cleanly and decisively.
