"Okay...com Let's go." Shikamaru said. Then he jumped out and Shikamaru followed immediately. I nodded to Sakura, followed behind Shikamaru, and Dingji and Hinata followed.

"The smell came from here." As I said that, I turned my teeth and headed towards the other side, following a large group of us. I looked carefully at the left to prevent any possible attack at any time.

Time passed slowly and we had already penetrated into the forest. "Woooo." Akamaru in Ya's arms suddenly opened his mouth and whispered, Ya said, "Akamaru said there was a bloody smell in the other direction."

"The smell of blood." Shikamaru frowned slightly, "If there is a smell of blood, it proves that there has been a battle. At this time, the party in the battle is likely to be those who took Sasuke away. Let's take a look and we should be able to get a lot of information. However, since there has been a battle, the other party must be very alert, and there is also the possibility of setting traps and ambushings, so everyone will be cheered up and don't fall into the traps and ambushings of the other party." "Yes." Everyone responded, then turned their teeth and turned toward that direction.

When we arrived at our destination carefully, we saw three Konoha's Uenin fell to the ground. One of them was our old acquaintance, the examiner of the last Zhongnin exam, Wuzhihuo Qianma. They all got a few kunai or shurikens on their bodies. The trees around them were also destroyed very strongly. We quickly helped the three of them up, but fortunately they were still alive, but they were seriously injured and unconscious.

After pulling out the Kumami and Shuriken for them, they bandaged the wound and fed them a little water. Soon the three of them woke up.

"It's you. Uzumaki Naruto, and Nara Shikamaru." Kurokura woke up and said, "Why are you here?"

Shikamaru shrugged, "Of course it's because of the mission. Let's not talk about these things for now. You will become like this. There shouldn't be many people who can defeat you three sunini, right? How could they appear here?"

Buruhuo Genma covered a wound on his body and said, "We have completed a task and are resting here. We have met four people. You should know these four people. They are four people who set up the four purple flame formation barriers in Kikyo City when Orochimaru attacked Konoha."

"It's them!" Shikamaru was shocked and thought for a moment, "Then are there only four of them? Have you seen Sasuke? It's Uchiha Sasuke?"

"Uchiha Sasuke!" Muzhikua Genma: "No, there are only four of them, and there is no Uchiha figure. But they also brought a strange wooden barrel and sealed it with sealing technique." Muzhikua Genma paused slightly, "What? Your mission this time is related to Uchiha Sasuke."

Shikamaru thought for a moment and nodded: "Uchiha Sasuke defected. His target seemed to be Orochimaru's Yin Hidden Village. We were ordered to bring Uchiha Sasuke back to Konoha and were tracking it. Now it seems that Sasuke may be inside that strange wooden barrel. Since you have fought with them, you should know something!"

"What? Uchiha Sasuke defected? Ah... it hurts so much." Another Uenin beside Kurokuma, spoke, and pulled the wound that had just been bandaged on his body, which was now cracked.

Wuzhihuo Xuanma spoke with a serious expression: "Since you want to face them, then be careful, the other party is not using ninjutsu at all. Each of the four of them will change their bodies, their faces will become extremely terrifying, and their combat power will be greatly enhanced after the change. The three of us were beaten to this shape by them in a short while."

Shikamaru nodded: "So much is enough. So what are the injuries on your body?"

Buzhihuo Qianma smiled and said, "We can deal with these minor injuries. The three of us can just return to Konoha by themselves. And this time we have to thank you a few of you. When we lost just now, we could give us the last blow, but they suddenly left. Now it seems that it is your relationship!"

"If you say so, they are not very far away from us. And if you just fought with the three Shangnin, their physical strength and chakra have been consumed a lot. But since they can defeat the three Shangnin in a short time, it seems that their strength cannot be underestimated." Shikamaru pondered: "Mr. Bushihuo, after you return to Konoha, please help me ask for support from the medical class. It seems that the enemy's strength is very strong and it is inevitable to be injured. Okay, let's go."

"Oh." Ya shouted, "It's just right for them to see the new ninjutsu of Akamaru and me." As he said that, he turned forward and with a 'swoosh', the five of us set off again.

"Are you new ninjutsu?" I interjected: "But be careful, I hope I guessed wrong."

"Huh?" Shikamaru was stunned: "Naruto, do you know what?"

"Ah. I do know a little. If I don't know what Huo Genma said the same thing as I thought." I replied: "When I and the lustful immortal went to find Tsunade's mother-in-law, I met Orochimaru. There was a boy next to Orochimaru. I fought with him, and my battle with him was in a stalemate, but later his whole body suddenly turned into a monster, and his strength suddenly doubled. I was completely at a disadvantage all of a sudden." Shikamaru slowly fell into deep thought.

"Huh?" The rushing teeth suddenly became stunned, then turned to Shikamaru behind him and said, "Shikamaru, there were a lot of enemies smells found in front of him. The enemy may have been there for a while."

"Stop." Shikamaru spoke, and Ya immediately stopped on the trunk in front of her. The five of us all stopped on the trunk. Under Ya's guidance, we soon found an explosion talisman. "Hyuta. Look with your eyes."

Hinata nodded and made a seal, "Blank eyes." All of a sudden, the scenes from a very far place entered Hinata's eyes: "There were explosion talismans found in front, there were five pieces, which seemed to be barrier magic circles. And there were enemies in front, one, two, and four enemies in total. They looked like they were them, the four people in Kikyo Castle. Didn't find Sasuke, Um? They stopped, and it seemed that they were ready to rest. The enemy put down a large wooden barrel, and there was a seal talisman on it, so they could not see through it."

"It turned out to be a barrier magic circle." Shikamaru said, "That is a trap ninjutsu, a trap that the enemy activates when it enters the range surrounding the spell talisman. It is an advanced ninjutsu. I have seen it on my dad's tree." Then Shikamaru paused slightly and said, "Let's take a detour, anyway, the enemy is resting, we have enough time."

The five of us immediately jumped down and began to move towards the target from the other direction. We quickly approached them. When we were still a distance away from them, we stopped again. Shikamaru said, "Then wait until I plan to prepare for the battle, we will contact the target." Shikamaru was indeed a natural military advisor, and he didn't take much time to draw up a plan.

Yin Nin and the other four leaned against a tree, gasping for breath, and it seemed that they had consumed a lot of physical strength. Suddenly, a kunai was pulled out and shot into the grass. With a "ding" sound, Kunai nailed the trunk behind the grass, and then the Kunai's explosion talisman began to burn.

"Oh no. Go quickly." Shikamaru's voice came from the grass, and then a "bang" explosion, Shikamaru and Hinata were pushed to the front of the four Yinnin by the aftermath of the explosion.

"Hmph. I didn't expect that a random kunai would force two little mice out." Zuo Jin said disdainfully: "What are you two rats doing sneakily?"

"Don't get me wrong." Shikamaru said quickly: "We are not here to fight, we are here to negotiate."

"Is that?" The six-handed Ghost Maru said, "Then how could this be!" The six-handed pulls hard, and the three of us who were quietly approaching them in the tree were pulled down and fell to the ground. I quickly pulled out a kuna and a shuriken. After using kuna and shuriken, I threw it out at the same time with kuna and shuriken. The thrown Kuna cuts the spider silk on Tee and Ding Ji's feet. After throwing it out, the Shuriken immediately turned into hundreds but shot at Kuna and the others. The four of them easily avoided Shuriken, but we were already standing on the ground, forming a confrontation.

When Kidonmaru saw me, he was shocked and said, "It's you, the blonde guy."

I shrugged, "Isn't it me?" I looked at the wooden barrel behind them and said, "The one in there should be Sasuke! How is his situation?" None of the four people answered me, but just looked at me with caution.

Shikamaru looked at the four of them and said, "Hmph, I didn't expect you to have such special abilities. Spider silk, which is extremely difficult to detect with the naked eye. It is useless for early warning and attack, but even if you discover us, the winner has not been decided yet."

"Hmph, what big talk are you, the onion-headed guy..." Tayuya said harsh words immediately, but at this moment, she discovered something wrong: "The body cannot move."

"Did you find it?" Shikamaru's mouth began to rise and said, "The shadow imitation technique was successful." I saw that the shadow under Shikamaru was already connected with their appearance.

"The blonde ghost is here to distract us!" Guitongmaru said.

Shikamaru said without any energy: "In Kikyo Castle, Naruto's attack may have left a deep impression on you. Now it's just right to use it."
