Ninja at the top of the food chain

Chapter 198 Watergate
Under the faint moonlight, in the dense forest, the atmosphere suddenly froze for a few seconds.

Seeing that the person behind the tree refused to show up for a long time, Lei Luo couldn't help but sharpen his eyes, and immediately raised one hand, the imprint was about to be formed.

He's just a guy with enough chakras to reach Chunin, and he's looking for death if he dares to show off in front of him, Lei Luo.

Since that person didn't plan to come out, Lei Luo felt that the other party should never come out.

The tree was only one meter wide, and if his Lei Ying was thrown out, it would be enough to blow up the tree and the person.

Perhaps he also felt the strong murderous aura emanating from Lei Luo's body. The man behind the tree didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and showed his figure in front of Lei Luo and Wu Chou while moving his steps.

After seeing the man's appearance clearly, Lei Luo paused slightly for a moment, and unconsciously revealed a look of surprise.

This person is about twelve or thirteen years old, and he is just a teenager. His height is about 1.6 meters [-], he is wearing a set of white casual clothes, and he wears a Konoha forehead protector on his head.

He has blond hair, his face looks softer, and he is quite handsome, but the light blue eyes that look at Lei Luo contain a strong look of vigilance, which slightly destroys the whole harmony.

He held a handle of bitterness in front of his chest, and put on a posture ready to fight at any time. While looking at Lei Luo and Wu Chou calmly, he asked actively:
"Who are you?"

Namikaze Minato... This name that resounded through the generations flashed through Lei Luo's mind in an instant, and in an instant, he completely came back to his senses, and quickly remembered the plot in the previous life animation.

Nine-Tails Jinchuriki alternate, Kumo Shinobi, Namikaze Minato... Isn't it Kushina Uzumaki who was kidnapped by Kumo Shinobi as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki alternate?

Glancing at Namikaze Minato thoughtfully, Lei Luo put down his right hand, which was about to form a seal, and sat cross-legged on the ground without getting up, saying:

"We are Konoha ninjas just like you..."

As he said that, Lei Luo waved his hand to the side, signaling Wuchou to relax, and then said to Namakaze Minato: "I seem to have seen you somewhere, if I remember correctly, your name should be Namikaze Minato?"

When he said this, Lei Luo showed a hint of hesitation on his face at the right time, as if he was quite uncertain about his own judgment.

Hearing Lei Luo directly calling out his name, Namikaze Minato couldn't hide the surprise on his face, but the other two didn't have any signs of forehead protection, so he still didn't completely relax his vigilance, but continued to ask:

"My name is Namikaze Minato, but I have never met you, what do you use to prove your identity?"

Seeing that Namikaze Minato's vigilant expression was not dismissed because he revealed his identity outright, Lei Luo praised the other party's calmness in his heart, but on the surface he asked in a neutral manner:

"How do you want us to prove it?"

Sensing that the atmosphere was becoming stiff, Minato Namikaze took a step back, quickly observed the surrounding terrain, and then replied:
"Headguard, as ninjas in the village, you should wear the village's forehead protector."

Hearing this, Lei Luo was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly felt rather speechless:

Although he usually doesn't bother to wear forehead protection, he always carries it with him in order to prevent any accidents.

After all, the ninja's forehead, just like some documents he had applied for in his previous life, was a necessary item to prove his identity.

Unexpectedly, because he had just finished changing into new clothes today, he accidentally dropped the forehead guard. As a result, there were two occasions where the forehead guard was needed.

Glancing at Wu Chou beside him, Lei Luo gave him a questioning look, the meaning of which was instantly understood by the former.

Wu Chou gave Lei Luo a weird look, while pulling out his forehead protector from the ninja bag, shaking it in the direction of Namakaze Minato, he thought puzzledly:

The boy on the opposite side is obviously just a ninja, why do you feel that Master Jue Ying is unexpectedly...very patient with that guy?

Now that Wu Chou had shown his forehead protector, Minakame Minato's eyes widened, and with the help of the brightness of the moonlight, he carefully observed the leaf pattern on it.

Realizing that Lei Luo and Wu Chou were really companions, Namikaze Minato breathed a sigh of relief, and without hesitation, he jumped to Lei Luo and Wu Chou's side several times in a row.

"I'm sorry, I was rude just now." First he bowed his head to Lei Luo and Wu Chou and apologized, Namikaze Minato took advantage of the situation to put away Kunai, and then said solemnly:

"You two, although I don't know what your mission is, but I have encountered a very urgent matter, if possible..."

"I hope you can listen to my explanation of the situation first, and then ask the two of you to decide whether to lend a helping hand to me and my companions."

After a pause, Namikaze Minato saw that Lei Luo and Wu Chou were both staring at him intently, obviously putting on an attitude of listening, and didn't mean to interrupt him.

At that moment, Namikaze Minato couldn't help but feel a little fond of these two strange companions he met by chance.

'Perhaps they could really help. '

Thinking of this, Namakaze Minato continued: "My companion must have been kidnapped and brought all the way from the village to this neighborhood."

"I followed the clues she left..."

As he spoke, Minato Namikaze took out a few strands of bright red hair from his jacket pocket, handed them to Lei Luo and Wu Chou, and explained:

"These hairs should be the signposts she left on purpose, and I was able to track them all the way here by relying on them."

After finishing speaking, Namikaze Minato stopped talking, and looked at Lei Luo and Wu Chou with a slightly expectant look.

First, he and Namakaze Minato looked at each other for a while, and then Lei Luo glanced at Wuchou, who immediately understood, quickly took the hair from Namakaze Minato, and smelled it through the mask.

Seeing Wu Chou nodded slightly, Lei Luo had no hesitation in his heart, and said directly to Namikaze Minato: "It seems that our goals are the same."

"Your companion is also our goal. Bringing her back to the village is our task this time."

After all, Lei Luo ignored Namikaze Minato's astonishment, stood up straight up, and asked Wu Chou, "How long do you need to rest?"

Wu Chou looked down at his dog, saw that it was still listless, and replied helplessly: "At least two hours, my ninja dog has never felt that kind of speed before, so... "

Raising his hand to stop Wu Chou's words, Lei Luo stared at the lazy dog ​​expressionlessly, then turned his head and said to Namikaze Minato:

"Helping is not a problem, but you should have seen the predicament we are facing, so... I guess I will trouble you to lead the way."

Namikaze Minato nodded and replied decisively: "No problem."
