The air around the flames was distorted by the intense heat of the fire.

The two flames moved incredibly fast, reaching Liutu's side in the blink of an eye.

He knew Zhang Ye was skilled with a sword, but he didn't expect that the other party could actually use flames from the blade.

"Earth Escape·Earth Formation Wall!"

A several-foot-long earthen wall rises directly from the ground, with a huge tiger head carved on its surface, looking majestic and imposing.

Click!

Two flames struck the earthen wall, scattering sparks and fire. After the flames disappeared, two translucent crescent-shaped beams of light were revealed inside!

In an instant, the power of Crescent Moon Sky Slash erupted, directly cleaving the earthen wall in two and hurtling towards the flowing earth with undiminished force.

not good!

Liu Tu sensed something was wrong and quickly pushed off to the side.

"Eight Trigrams - Empty Palm!!"

A cold voice suddenly came from behind him, followed by two whooshing sounds, forcing him to dodge to the sides.

"Secret Technique: Entangling Vines!"

Click!

Several vines as thick as an arm sprouted from beneath Liu Tu's feet, and the sound rang out simultaneously the instant the empty palm struck.

The vines tightly bound the soil, rendering him unable to move.

Sizzle!

The Crescent Moon Sky Slash arrived in an instant, slashing fiercely at Liu Tu's chest. With a "plop," two deep, intertwined wounds appeared on Liu Tu's chest.

The stark white bones were exposed, and the beating, bloody heart inside was clearly visible.

Blood trickled from the corner of Liu Tu's mouth as he stared blankly at the three people in front of and behind him.

"I can't believe I... made that mistake too."

After saying that, his head tilted to the side and he stopped breathing; even his heart stopped beating.

My whole body felt ice-cold.

"Captain, what brings you here?" Zhang Ye looked at Nakata Heikaku and Kusama Masato with a puzzled expression.

After a while, Kato Yuna and Yunma Keiko also came out from behind the trees.

"If I hadn't come to help you, you little rascal, you would have died at the hands of these Iwa ninja!" Nakata Heizuku laughed exaggeratedly, patting Zhang Ye's shoulder as she laughed.

Then, in a deep voice, he said, "In the future, if anything dangerous happens, don't stand out by yourself. Remember, we're a team. I'm your captain. I'll take the blame if anything goes wrong!"

Masato Kusama stood to the side, chuckling.

boom!

"Laugh, all you do is laugh!" Nakata Heizuku punched Kusama Masato on the head with a gloomy expression.

"I already told you to protect Keiko and the others, but instead, you came up here with me!"

"I was just worried that the captain wouldn't be able to handle it alone. Besides, aren't my abilities quite suitable for keeping the enemy occupied?"

Zhang Ye looked at the two noisy people beside him and couldn't help but laugh.

The two of them stared at Zhang Ye in a daze.

"thank you all!"

Chapter 82 Schemes

"Stop talking nonsense! We're a whole squad. If we don't help you, who will we help?"

“Yes, Captain is right!” Masato Kusama said with a smile, then his face darkened. “Although we managed to take down their captain with a sneak attack, we can’t let our guard down. The enemy still has five Jonin-level guys. The real battle is yet to come!”

Kato Yuna and Yunma Keiko also arrived at their side.

"Although we are evenly matched with the enemy in numbers, our overall strength is far inferior!" Nakata Heiyuku glanced at Kusama Masato and casually continued, "There are only three people in our squad who can be called combatants: me, Zhang Ye, and Kato Yuna. As for Kusama Masato and Keiko... they can only be considered as support personnel!"

After hearing Nakata Heizo's words, Kusama Masato's face fell, and he said unwillingly, "Captain, I am a Jonin, what do you mean I can only be considered a support staff!"

Nakata Heizuku stared coldly at Masato.

"You don't want me to tell them how you became a Jonin, do you?"

"No! Captain, I know I was wrong!"

Masato quickly shook his head, which looked quite like a shaking lion, making Keiko and Yuna smile slightly.

"Alright, Masato, you're quick-witted here. Tell me what we should do next!" Nakata Heikaku said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing the order, Masato Kusama abandoned his nonchalant expression and said solemnly, "We'll do it like this... and then like this... Although the chances of success aren't very high, it's better than nothing!"

After explaining his tactics, Masato Kusama sighed as he looked at the four people staring intently at him.

"I'll be the bait, okay?"

"can."

"I agree."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Yaren!"

“Yuna is fine too.”

……

The group quickly hid themselves, and a moment later, five Iwa ninjas with angry expressions leaped swiftly from among the trees.

The ninja dog Huang Yan, perched on the leader's shoulder, bared its teeth and occasionally let out a low, angry growl from its throat.

"Damn Konoha ninjas, you actually used shadow clones to lure us! If I, Huang Yan, catch you, I'll tear your bones to pieces!"

"Huang Yan, don't worry, with the captain's strength, dealing with those five stupid thieves is a piece of cake!"

Huang Yan's subordinate, a Yan ninja, couldn't help but laugh, as he had great faith in his captain's strength.

"Leprosy Deputy Captain!"

A rock ninja suddenly stopped between the treetops, staring in horror at a bloody corpse below.

"What's wrong, Cangma..." Leprosy stared wide-eyed ahead, as if he had seen something unbelievable.

"Captain Liutu!!"

He exclaimed in surprise, and Huang Yan, the ninja dog on his shoulder, also stared wide-eyed.

Leprosy instinctively tried to rush over to check Liutu's body, but was bitten on the ear by the ninja dog Huangyan on his shoulder.

"Leprosy, don't act rashly!"

Although the ninja dog Huang Yan's eyes were bloodshot, a trace of calm and composure could be seen in its crazed pupils.

"How am I supposed to calm down?!"

The leper roared, as if he had forgotten his own identity.

"I know, I know!" Ninja Dog Huang Yan trembled, its eyes never leaving Liu Tu's body. It said in a deep voice, "I feel the same way! But have you thought about it? This might be a trap set by the enemy. If you rush in rashly and something happens, what will happen to our team? Tell me!"

"I……"

Ma Feng stared at Liu Tu lying in a pool of blood on the ground with a ferocious expression, his body trembling slightly. The four Iwa ninja behind him looked at each other.

“But… he’s my teacher!” the leper murmured.

"I know that Ryuto is an elite ninja from our Iwagakure village, proficient in both fire and earth jutsu, and he has also mastered lava jutsu. How could he have been killed by a Chunin from Konoha? There must be others involved. We must be careful!"

Seeing the sorrow on the leper's face, Ninja Dog Huang Yan's heart softened, but he thought that if they rushed forward, they would be the ones to die.

"I understand!" Leper clenched his fists and said in a low voice, "If I run into those guys, I will grind them to dust!"

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Leprosy threw several shurikens, which landed around the corpse.

"No movement?"

The leper's face showed a look of surprise; it was completely different from what they had expected.

"Tsk tsk tsk!" A smacking sound came from behind the tall tree.

Leprosy's face darkened, and he immediately shouted, "Who is it?!"

Masato Kusama emerged from behind the tall tree and slowly approached the corpse of Ryuto. He picked up a few shuriken from the ground, played with them in his hands, and looked at the leper on the treetop with amusement.

"You guys are being too cautious. We're not idiots, why would we put those random traps in such obvious places? That would be a waste of effort!" Feng Jianyouren chuckled softly, as if mocking their foolishness.

"Who are you?" Ma Feng asked coldly, looking at Kusama Masato.

Meanwhile, the ninja dog Huang Yan on his shoulder whispered something in his ear.

"He's a leper, and he has no scent at all, which is dangerous to my sense of smell!"

"No smell?" Leper frowned, looking down at Masato Kusama, and couldn't help but ask, "Could it be a clone technique?"

"No, that's impossible. He just picked up the shuriken himself, which means he can't use a clone technique!"

"What about the shadow clone?"

Ninja Dog Huang Yan shook his head and said, "That's impossible too. Shadow clones also have the body odor of humans."

"Stop whispering there, I'm the real person, definitely not a clone!" Masato Kusama teased, a smile in his eyes.

Then Masato Kusama squatted down and used his shuriken to make cuts on the corpse, instantly creating smooth cuts on Ryuto's body.

"I've heard that Konoha has many strange research fanatics. If we take this corpse back, we should get a lot of credit!" Kusama Masato said with a sly smile.

"you dare!!"

Masato Kusama's voice wasn't loud, but it was loud enough for all the Iwa ninjas on the treetops to hear, which immediately enraged Mapo.

"By the way, that scientist seems to really like eating dog meat. Hey, you, give me that dead dog on your shoulder, and I'll give the body back to you, how about it!"

The previous sentence was spoken in a low voice by Masato Kusama, but even a seasoned ninja could hear it.

"You're asking for death, kid!!" Ninja Dog Huang Yan was furious. Dogs hate seeing humans eat dog meat, and he couldn't stand anyone discussing eating dog meat in front of him.
