Chapter 36 Shiina Koro's White Signal Flare

After the battle was over, Orochimaru did not order to clean up the battle traces, because this place is very close to the Iwanin stronghold, and in order to ensure safety, the general patrol team needs to go back to report once in a while.

And Dashewan didn't know the specific time of this report.

Now that the patrol team has been dealt with, it's better to go directly to the Iwanin stronghold. Any delay in time may be perceived by Iwanin as dangerous, and he has been vigilant in advance.

This was Shen Yun's idea, and obviously also Orochimaru's idea.

Silently, the whole team swept across the tragic scene and rushed towards the Yannin stronghold not far away.

Following Orochimaru's deployment, Shen Yun took two of his teammates to hide in a hidden high place next to the Iwanin stronghold, letting the wind out to prevent Iwanin who was not in the plan from coming to support.

Orochimaru and the five Jōnin teams dispersed according to the plan, hiding in the shadows, walking in the blind spot of Iwanin's sight, quietly blending into the Iwanin stronghold, and moving towards their respective killing targets.

Seeing the figure of the last Konoha ninja disappear from sight.

After waiting for a while, there was still no abnormal noise from the rock ninja in the stronghold ahead. Obviously, the hidden assassination plan of the Konoha ninjas was going smoothly.

Shen Yun turned his gaze back to his side, standing on the top of a tree to observe everything around the Iwanin stronghold, since Orochimaru has considered the thoughts of the three of them and arranged tasks for his team, then he must be worthy of this arrangement and stare at it. Looking around, I can't let go of an extra Iwanin.

Although there is a high probability that Shen Yun and the others will not be used...

"Koshina Shiina, go over there and stare over there."

"Yuichi..., just stay by my side, stare over there."

Shen Yun assigned his two teammates the observation areas they were responsible for, plus Shen Yun himself was responsible for the largest area, and the three of them included all directions around the Yannin stronghold for observation.

"Hi, Shen Yun."

"You said, the teacher brought us here, but didn't let us participate in the task. What is this trying to do?"

At this time, Yuichi was obviously still depressed about not being able to participate in the battle, and it happened that Shen Yun was by his side, so he immediately asked with a bitter face.

Without leaving his line of sight from the area he was in charge of observing, Shen Yun replied flatly to Yuichi.

"What are you in a hurry for? Didn't the teacher consider us and arrange the task?"

"Moreover, even if the teacher wants to arrange for us to engage in real battles, we need to show the corresponding strength first, otherwise, even if the teacher decides to send us to perform important tasks, other people will object."

As he said that, Shen Yun's words changed.

"You also have to be more considerate of the teacher's difficulties and ideas."

"In addition, be optimistic about the area you are in charge of. If there are rock ninjas here and we don't find them, then others will be even more worried about entrusting us with tasks."

"I can also understand, but..." Yuichi closed his mouth back and forth, finally heaved a long sigh, then turned his head to look at the area he was in charge of and followed him honestly.

Looking at Yuichi's movements from the corner of his eyes, Shen Yun sighed slightly in his heart, the position of team leader that Orochimaru handed over to him was really not a good thing.

In normal times, you have to supervise your teammates' cultivation, in battle, you have to supervise and command the team, and when the team members have problems, you have to act as a confidant big sister to resolve worries.

However, Shen Yun still has no way to shirk the position of the team leader.

One reason is that Orochimaru, as one of the leaders of the Rain Country Battlefield, is really busy, and often has no time to manage his own students, and needs someone to help manage the team.

In addition, Shen Yun can also see that Orochimaru has high hopes for him, and his attitude towards himself is different from Yuichi and Shiina Kong.

When talking to himself, Orochimaru can communicate, think, and discuss, which is exactly the style of communication between peers.

But it is very different for Yuichi and Shiina Kong. It is completely a dialogue between the teacher and the students. Orochimaru will not discuss and communicate with them, and directly express his accumulation, experience or skills.

"Oh~" Shen Yun shook his head helplessly.

Being valued by others, especially people like Orochimaru, is of course something to be happy about, but at the same time, I feel tired because I have to think about many things that have nothing to do with me.

Shen Yun can only perform his duties as the team leader with both joy and pain.

Of course, if Yuichi knew about this idea, he would definitely scold Shen Yun for being a hypocrite, for being good-looking when he got a cheap one.

Thinking of this, Shen Yun smiled and glanced at Yuichi beside him.

Time passed quickly between Shen Yun's stalking and wild thinking.

"boom!"

A few minutes later, Shen Yun heard an explosion sound from behind, and subconsciously, Shen Yun turned his head to look at the Yannin stronghold.

The sound of the explosion just now came from the detonating talisman, and it was obvious that the rock ninja who had been attacked had used the explosion to remind his companions of the attack.

It can be clearly heard that as the explosion sounded, the Konoha ninja who originally assassinated and attacked no longer restricted his means.

The sound of weapons clashing, ninjutsu clashing, whimpering and screaming,... the whole rock ninja stronghold immediately boiled.

Shen Yun narrowed his eyes slightly.

From now on, if there is Iwanin support, it is likely to come in the next period of time.

Yuichi next to Shen Yun obviously also understood this truth, he restrained his small movements a lot, and focused on the area he was in charge of.

A few minutes passed, and the noisy fighting in the Iwanin stronghold behind him continued without any signs of weakening. Obviously, the battle in the stronghold would continue for some time.

"Huh? Is it windy?"

Shen Yun was keenly aware of a breeze blowing across his face.

Looking up at the sky, judging from the dark clouds covering the sky, it might rain heavily.

"It's going to rain again?" Yuichi complained in his ear.

Hearing Yuichi's complaint, Shen Yun turned his head to look.

Yuichi is mainly proficient in fire escape ninjutsu, and when it rains, the raindrops will weaken the power of fire escape.

Naturally, Yuichi hated rainy days very much.

Looking at Yuichi who looked depressed, Shen Yun spoke.

"It can't be helped, because this country is called rain..."

A piercing voice sounded, traveling several kilometers around, and incidentally interrupted Shen Yun's words.

Looking back, the source of the sound was a white signal flare in the sky.

And under the flare is Shiina Kong's location.

Obviously, Iwanin would not fire the signal bomb in this way, telling the enemy that he was coming in a high-profile way. This could only be the signal bomb that Aoshi Shiina found the enemy to warn the other Konoha ninjas.

Looking at the white signal flare blooming in the sky, Yuichi immediately abandoned his previous emotions and fell into excitement.

"Shen Yun, there are enemies! Let's go! Let's save Shiina Kong."

As he said that, Yuichi took out a kunai and waved it back and forth, obviously impatient to kill people.

Seeing Yuichi's appearance, Shen Yun thought for a while, and created a shadow clone, and handed over the security task to the clone Shen Yun.

Afterwards, with Yuichi who had started to grind his teeth, Shen Yun quickly ran in the direction of Shiina Kong.

"Accompanied by the screeching white flare, is the enemy a complete team consisting of a special Jōnin and two Chunin?"

Thinking back to the chapter in the ninja manual about the release of flares, Shen Yun judged the quantity and quality of the enemies.

"Isn't this another Iwain patrol team that couldn't be found?"

Discovering this, Shen Yun accelerated his running speed.

"Hold on, Shiina-san!"

Chapter 37 Pale bone spurs and eye sockets

Following Shen Yun's instructions, Shiina Kong came to a high ground convenient for observing the surrounding area.

"That's it."

Shiina Kong glanced left and right, and saw a tree crown that was relatively hidden but could see a large field of vision.

Leaping up, Shiina adjusted his posture in the canopy of the tree, and slowly lay down on the branch, looking at the view in front of him that was enough to observe a large dense forest, Shiina smiled with satisfaction.

The only fly in the ointment.

There is a layer of rough and dry bark on the surface of the branches under the body. Even people with thick calluses on their hands will feel uncomfortable if they touch this bark for a long time.

And Kong Shiina, who participated in the mission for the first time, even though he often maintained high-intensity practice in the past, his skin, which has never left home and experienced torture, is still very delicate.

In a short time, Shiina Kong felt a slight pain from his chest, lifted his collar and looked inward, and the originally fair skin on his chest had red marks.

For the slight pain coming from his chest, Shiina Kong could completely ignore it, but after turning his gaze back to the dense forest in the distance, another question suddenly came to his mind.

"There were no waves in the first place, so suppressed..., it will not grow up in the future."

Suddenly, Kong Shiina recalled in his mind those female ninjas in the village who were ordinary in stature and extremely tough in character, who looked like fake men.

Imagining that he would become the same image as those female ninjas in the future, Shiina Kong shuddered all over, as if the pain in his chest was more intense.

Shiina Kong shook his head quickly to stop his wild thoughts.

After all, this is the best observation position around, and I can't change places, so it's better to observe the dense forest ahead and be vigilant.

…………

"boom!"

About 10 minutes later, there was a deafening explosion roar from the rock ninja stronghold.

Kong Shiina, who was staring at everything around him with extreme concentration, subconsciously turned his head and looked back, guessing in his heart that the teacher who had sneaked into the Iwanin stronghold should have been discovered.

Sure enough, after the sound of the explosion passed, the sounds of battle coming from the Iwanin stronghold gradually became more and more intense.

Ignoring the movements in the direction of Iwanin's stronghold, Shiina believed that his teacher and those uncles with rich actual combat experience could complete their tasks.

On the contrary, the explosion just now was deafening. Even if the surrounding area is full of dense forests, it is enough to spread several kilometers away. If there are rock ninjas around, they will probably come here for support after hearing the explosion.

Therefore, instead of worrying about the teacher in Iwanin's stronghold, it is better to do your own things well first.

With this thought in mind, Ao Shiina turned his gaze back to the surrounding dense forest.

"Huh? Is it windy?"

A slight breeze brushed Shiina Kong's face, and she noticed it keenly.

Looking up at the sky, it can be seen from the drowsy black sky that a heavy rain is about to come.

"Wow~Wow~"

The intensity of the wind began to increase, blowing the sea of ​​trees in front of Kong Shiina's eyes.

"That is?"

The abnormal swing of the bushes in the distance attracted Shiina's attention.

Looking at the bushes that swayed in a direction inconsistent with the rest of the bushes, Kong Shiina gave a thump in his heart, having a bad premonition.

"Luck can't be so good."

Driven by his inner intuition, Shiina raised his head and began to focus on the abnormal bush.

Immediately afterwards, after Kong Shiina raised his head to observe, the bush suddenly stopped.

Two seconds later, the swing suddenly intensified, spread along a path, and moved towards the crown of the tree where Shiina Kong was hiding.

"It was found! How did you find it?"

Shiina Kong has confirmed at this time that the abnormal swing is caused by human factors, and there is a high probability that it is caused by the enemy.

At this important moment, Shiina Kong tried his best to calm down, and the figure lying on the branch remained motionless, trying to capture the specific figure of the enemy.

"found it!"

Between a big tree that was not covered by vigorous leaves, Shiina Kong successfully captured a few figures flashing past.

Although it passed by in a flash, Shiina Kong has successfully captured the key information he needs.

"It's Rock Shinobi! It's that other patrol team!"

Regardless of hiding himself, Shiina raised the leaves on his body to disguise himself, jumped to the highest point of the treetop, and directly exposed himself to the eyes of the Iwanin team.

Taking out a pack of signal flares from the ninja bag behind him, Shiina took out one of them, lifted it above his head, and pulled out the lead wire.

"squeak!"

Seeing the white signal flares flying into the sky with the screeching sound, Shiina Ao slowly let out a breath, no matter what the result of facing Iwa Ninja next time, she has always fulfilled her duty.

Turning his head, Shiina Kong looked in the direction of the Iwanin team,

Seeing the signal bomb fired by Shiina Kong, the approaching speed of Iwanin accelerated again. The distance between the two parties was no more than [-] meters.
