"You didn't go back the whole night. Are you planning to stay here until the end of the mission?”
Naruto was still mad at the fact that Bai was a boy. Hatake Kazuo hugged his sword and said with a smile.
"Nan Xiongjun! You're here?"
When Naruto saw that Hatake Kazuo had personally come to find him, he immediately became excited. He came up to him and said excitedly,
"I've already learned how to climb trees! Come and take a look!"
After saying that.
Naruto looked at the big tree and concentrated his chakra on his feet.
Stomp! Stomp!
Dense footsteps sounded.
Step by step, Naruto climbed up the tree briskly and quickly and stood at the top.
He waved his hand excitedly.
"Look, look! Nan Xiongjun, I succeeded, isn't it especially amazing!？”
Seeing the satisfied smile on Naruto's face, Hatake Kazuo shook his head.
With a flip of his hand.
He placed the sword in his arms on his waist.
"If you don't come down now, Teacher Asma will be angry.”
After saying that.
Hatake Kazuo turned around and left.
Hearing this, Naruto was dumbfounded.
" Eh???"
After that.
In no time, Naruto climbed down.
In the process, she fell because she was too anxious.
"Aiyo! Nan Xiongjun, why didn't you say so earlier? Let's go! Otherwise, Teacher Asma would really be angry!”
Soon after.
Naruto ran back.
Watching Naruto leave anxiously, the smile on Hatake Kazuo's face slowly disappeared.
He thought of Bai, whom he had just met.
"The next time we meet, I won't show mercy."
At the pier.
Asma and Hatata were already waiting at the ferry.
Hatake Kazuo was responsible for calling Naruto back, and then everyone set off together.
Inari didn't come to see him off, so only Dazner and his daughter Jinbo were there.
At this moment, there was still some reluctance on their faces, whether it was because they had saved their lives or because they wanted them to stay.
But they also knew that it was impossible.
The other party was the great ninja of the Woodleaf Village. How could he stop because of such a small matter?
"Teacher Asma! I'm coming!"
From afar, Naruto ran over while waving his arms.
Behind him was Kazuo Hatake, who did not seem to be running, but his speed was not slow either.
"You bastard! He left a letter last night and didn't come back all night. What if he encountered danger?”
Asma punched Naruto's head. She felt a little sorry for him when she saw the soil and weeds all over his body.
"Hehe."
Naruto scratched his head in embarrassment and smiled foolishly.
"Huo Huo, it seems that all of you have arrived. I don't need to spend any effort to find you.”
Suddenly.
A thick fog filled the air, and the white fog around them moved without any wind.
A sinister voice entered everyone's ears.
Dazner was shocked.
If he didn't slash it!
Although he had only heard this voice once, he could not forget it as he had relied on Naruto to save his life!
"Oh no! Jinbo, go back quickly. It's dangerous here!”
Before he could react, Dazner subconsciously wanted to send his daughter home.
But…
"Too late!"
Whoosh!
An afterimage flashed.
If he didn't slash, he would have already cut into their gaps with his beheading saber!
Bang!
He was decisive and ruthless. He didn't waste any time and just slashed.
The sharp and heavy beheading saber swung with all its might.
Just from the sound of the wind coming from the blade, one could understand how terrifying the power was.
"Ah!"
Jinbo was scared silly by the Jounin's aura and the power of this slash. He screamed on the spot.
Clang!
Gold and iron clashed.
There was another crisp sound.
"I spared your life before, so why are you here to die now?”
As he spoke, a face as calm as water was reflected in his eyes.
"It's you, you little brat!"
The moment he saw Hatake Kazuo, his expression turned furious.
After using the katana in his hand to block the attack, he immediately said to Asma,
"Teacher Asma, send them to the back first. I'll hold them off here first.”
His words were filled with unquestionable certainty. After hesitating for a moment, Asma chose to believe Hatake Kazuo.
He patted Hatake Kazuo's shoulder.
"Then I'll leave this place to you. I'll send them to a safe place and come back immediately.”
He then said to Naruto in a deep voice,
"Naruto, you cooperate with Nan Xiong and stall until the teacher returns!”
"Yes!"
Naruto nodded vigorously and clenched his fists, full of energy.
"Tsk."
If he didn't do it, he would be blocked by Hatake Kazuo's saber. The saber landed heavily on the ground, creating a deep crack.
"Brat, I was careless last time and fell under your blade. You won't be so lucky this time.”
"Is that so?"
Hatsuki Kazuo's expression did not change.
This damned expression again. What right did this brat have to be so arrogant!？
Still Not Beheading was furious. His killing intent was aroused by the calmness on Hatake Kazuo's face.
"White! Do it!"
Finally, he shouted into the air.
"Magic Mirror Ice Crystal! Thousand Kill Soaring Water!"
The sky was filled with snow, causing the air to become colder.
The world had changed.
Kaka!
A few sounds of ice forming suddenly surrounded the surroundings. Naruto had already caught up, but he suddenly realized that he was actually trapped by more than ten strange ice crystals or ice realms.
Swoosh!
Countless ice needles suddenly appeared.
It was like a storm, like thunder!
"Ah! It hurts!"
In an instant, Naruto was pierced by countless ice needles like a porcupine.
Even though Bai did not kill him and only pierced his skin, the pain from the sharp object piercing his skin and muscles still made Naruto scream in pain.
Hatsuki Kazuo casually swung his blade and shattered all the ice needles that were shooting at him. He sighed in his heart.
This was something that he had a premonition would happen.
As expected.
Bai still made his move.
