Traveling through Naruto with Heroes of Might and Magic.

"I estimate that after this battle, he will become famous throughout the ninja world."

Qingwu, who had escaped, thought to himself, finding a bittersweet humor in his actions.

They escaped from day to night.

Qingwu could no longer determine where he was.

Anyway, the terrain didn't look like the Land of Earth, which put his mind at ease.

Wenya was pursuing them very closely.

This guy's relentless, suicidal attitude was giving Qingwu a huge headache.

The great elves lost more than a dozen more in the pursuit.

Of course, it's estimated that they killed close to a hundred Iwa ninja.

This casualty ratio is undoubtedly extremely abnormal.

Unfortunately, Qingwu was unable to replenish its troops in areas far from its territory, while the number of Iwa ninjas led by Wenya seemed to be quite large.

Unbeknownst to Qingwu, Wenya had used a message to requisition ninjas from the strongholds along the way.

As far as Yu Wenya was concerned, things had come to this point, and no matter the cost, he had to keep those despicable guys from leaving.

……

Baiyun led his men to follow behind the centaur in the morning.

He believed that he could find their owners through the "spirit beasts".

Centaurs and dwarves have become separated.

The dwarves move too slowly.

However, centaurs cannot reach full speed in the forest.

Along the way, Baiyun dealt with several waves of Iwa ninjas roaming nearby in the morning.

A whole day had passed, and they still hadn't found anyone, which made Baiyun increasingly anxious in the morning.

"Report our current location," Bai Yun instructed those behind him in the morning.

The subordinate checked the map and replied after a moment, "We're almost at Taki no Kuni."

"..." Bai Yun frowned in the morning.

Although the Land of Waterfall is an ally of Konoha, it would be troublesome to deal with the consequences if someone crossed the border without diplomatic notification.

After all, ninjas are an armed force.

Meanwhile, the Iwa ninja ahead were also caught in the same dilemma.

"Captain, we've reached the border."

Faced with his subordinates' hesitation, Wenya waved his hand and said fiercely, "Mere Takigakure ninjas, I'd like to see if they dare to lay a hand on my Iwagakure ninjas."

Under the leadership of Onoki, Iwagakure is ambitious.

Towards the end of the Third Shinobi World War, in addition to bringing the Land of Grass under its control, Iwagakure had already launched several probing attacks against Takigakure.

If it weren't for the fact that no one in the entire ninja world could find Takigakure, and that Iwagakure was worried about being attacked without being able to fight back and having its supplies cut off, Onoki would probably have already deployed troops to the border of Takigakure, posing a multi-faceted threat to the Land of Fire.

"You should take a detour to the side and ambush them. If you encounter any patrols of the Takigakure ninja, do not attack them. Just say that we are capturing rogue ninja."

Wenya believed that as long as Iwagakure did not provoke trouble, Ryūtakigakure would not dare to attack them who were just passing through.

"Yes!"

Wenya led nearly three hundred Iwa ninja.

This is also the main reason why he was confident in crossing the border.

A small ninja village like Takigakure only has a combat force of a few hundred people.

……

Qingwu narrows the scope of natural perception.

In order to conserve natural energy, he had to make trade-offs.

"Splash splash splash—"

The sound of water could be heard ahead.

Qingwu, who always chose to escape through dense forests, saw a huge waterfall.

His mouth was parched, so he ran to the pond and drank the river water in big gulps.

"Who goes there!"

Two middle-aged ninjas wearing headbands with "waterfall" markings landed opposite him, staring at him warily.

Qingwu paused for a moment, then realized that she wasn't wearing a headband.

Taking out the Konoha headband from his ninja tool pouch, Qingwu said in a low voice, "Konoha Anbu, just passing by."

He knew that Takigakure was an ally of Konoha and would not attack him casually.

He took out a soldier's ration pill and swallowed it, then took the opportunity to rest for a while.

"Konoha?"

The two ninja from Taki exchanged a glance, then one of them asked suspiciously, "Do you have any evidence?"

Qingwu's masked appearance, concealing his true face, was truly suspicious.

Qingwu sat down with his back against the stream stone and waved his hand, saying, "There are Iwa ninja chasing us. If you don't want to cause trouble, you should leave."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a voice came from not far away: "There's a trail over there!"

Qingwu stood up slightly unsteadily, "Damn it, why are you chasing me so fast?"

He glanced at the two ninja from the pool, then charged towards the dense forest on the other side.

The two ninja from Takigakure exchanged glances again. One of them said, "I'll go back and report to the leader. You be careful."

“I know,” the remaining person said through gritted teeth, “none of these major powers are easy to deal with.”

Takigakure is not a large village, and its leader does not arrogantly call himself "Kage" like Kusagakure; he simply refers to himself as the leader.

Whoosh, whoosh!

Three Iwa ninja landed and surrounded the remaining Taki ninja.

"Did you see a kid wearing a mask?" the Iwa ninja squad leader asked bluntly.

Taki Shinobu calmly shook his head: "I'm just here to fetch water, you..."

He looked at the headbands of the Iwa ninja and said, "Aren't you Iwa ninjas afraid of causing a diplomatic dispute by crossing the border without permission?"

"Tch~!" The Iwa ninja squad leader scoffed, "We're capturing an S-rank rogue ninja, we'll be leaving soon."

Having said that, they ignored Takishinobu and quickly dispersed.

“…” Taki Shinobu felt aggrieved, but he could only clench his fists and lower his head.

Weak nations have no diplomacy; when facing the ninjas of the Great Ninja Village, they have always been "inferior."

Once outside the waterfall's vicinity, Qingwu faced another encounter.

There were too many Rock Ninjas; they always managed to bypass the Great Spirit's defensive perimeter and appear from the side.

Fortunately, as long as it doesn't encounter Wenya, Qingwu can usually defeat it with the help of the Great Elf.

However, his progress was inevitably delayed.

Moreover, natural energy is becoming increasingly scarce...

Chapter 86 Counterattack Against Elite Jonin

In a desolate forest outside a mountain pass.

Qingwu staggered and fled among the shadows of the trees, pursued relentlessly by the whooshing sound of air being cut behind him.

This is the second time I've encountered Wenya.

Wenya tried to flank the enemy multiple times, sometimes failing, but always managing to get it right once or twice.

"Run? Let's see where you can run to today!"

Wenya's angry roar came from behind, and "Earth Escape: Rock Iron Spear" killed two more great elves who bravely tried to stop him.

Earth Release: Rock Iron Cannon!

Wenya leaped onto the treetop and spat bullet-like rocks at Qingwu's back.

A strong gust of wind came crashing down, and Qingwu managed to spin around to avoid it.

Actually, Wen Ya's current condition isn't much better, otherwise he wouldn't be using only minor ninjutsu.

Qingwu was also aware of this.

After a full day of pursuit, it all comes down to who has the tougher nerves.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh—

The arrow shot towards them like lightning. Wen Ya formed a hand seal: "Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall!"

However, in order to conserve chakra, the strength of the earthen wall was insufficient, and he underestimated the ranged attack power of the Great Spirit.

"Oh!"

The trail of the arrow blasted through the earthen wall.

"What!!"

Wen Ya tried to dodge, but was still wounded in the cheek by an arrow.

Salty blood trickled into the corner of his mouth, and Wenya's eyes grew even more crazed.

He seized the opportunity, "Earth Release: Weighted Rock Technique!"

The gravitational field suddenly enveloped Qingwu, causing her already unsteady legs to buckle instantly.

At the same time, Wenya used Earth Escape Hardening Technique to withstand several arrows shot from another direction.
