"Xuan Zang!"
Masano Moonlight shook off his opponent. In a one-on-one fight, the Sunin didn't gain any advantage.
Moonlight Masano landed beside Xuan Zang and pushed Fujiwara, who was on his shoulder, onto the sand. He stabbed his katana into his chest and shouted at Xuan Zang.
"Yes, Captain!"
Raising his head with difficulty, Xuan Zang revealed an ugly smile.
"It's okay, hold on!"
Masano's heart tightened when he saw Xuan Zang's miserable state.
Looking back at the last Jounin that he had just defeated, Masano's expression froze, and his gaze became even sharper.
Broken Flow looked at Moonlight Masayoshi, whose fighting spirit was soaring, and revealed a trace of fear. He was the only Jounin left on his side, and he was not a match for the Koba Ninja. He looked to the other side and saw that the two Jounins on his side had not been able to finish off the other Koba Ninja for a long time. Broken Flow knew that this battle was going to be difficult. There was basically no chance of winning unless reinforcements came.
"Muramasa, Murayuki, retreat first!"
After saying that, Broken Flow decided to retreat.
Under Masano's watchful eyes, Broken Flow quickly left. The other two ninjas also left Zuo Mu behind. Although they had left countless wounds on Zuo Mu's body, Zuo Mu's strong fighting spirit kept him from falling.
As soon as Sunin left, Moonlight Masano didn't chase after him. He had used up a lot of energy, and the mysterious treasure here still needed his protection.
Zuo Mu held his sword and fell to the ground the second the enemy disappeared before his eyes.
In the end, he still persevered and survived!
"Captain, help me pull out the thing on my shoulder!”
Xuan Zang's eyelids became heavier and heavier as he spoke weakly.
Looking down at the scythe, Masano held the back of the scythe with both hands and slowly pulled it out.
"Tsk!"
Blood instantly spurted out from the wound. Xuan Zang frowned and narrowed his eyes. Chakra turned into lightning and flashed across his shoulder. The wound was charred and stopped bleeding. Xuan Zang did not show any extra expression during the whole process, as if it was not his own body.
There was also the Kunai. Xuan Zang knew that he could not hold on any longer. He used the chakra many times, allowing the poison in his body to spread throughout his body more quickly. Now, it was even more difficult for him to move.
"Captain…"
Before he could finish his sentence, Xuan Zang fell unconscious. His body fell forward and was supported by Moonlight Masano.
"Zuo Mu, can you still move?"
Moonlight Masano laid Genzang face down on the sand and walked over to Zuo Mu.
"Teacher, it's alright."
Smiling bitterly, Zuo Mu didn't even move his fingers. He had almost lost his fighting strength in the battle just now. His body was covered in wounds, and his blood left a dark color on the sand below him.
Masano looked back at Genzo and thought of Sunin who had just left. He knew that it was time to make a choice.
Sunin would soon make a comeback. With his two heavily injured companions, he did not know if he could continue to leave Sunin's sphere of influence.
Perhaps he would be able to leave with one of his disciples. His gaze fell on the disciple beside his feet. This was his only disciple. Although his talent was not high, he had a persistent heart. Hard work was the only talent that Zuo Mu showed when he studied under him!
He had to make a decision quickly. This was still the territory of the sand, and it was very dangerous!
"Teacher, what's wrong?"
Zuo Mu was weak, his head resting on the sand.
"I'm fine."
Masano touched Sasaki's head. His expression was normal, but his gaze was a little deep.
He helped Zuo Mu up so that half of his body could be propped up, leaning against Moonlight Masano's thigh.
Night had truly fallen, and the twilight shrouded the desert, leaving them a cold place.
Xuan Zang was poisoned and unconscious. Currently, he had no fighting power. Although Zuo Mu was still conscious, he had also lost his ability to fight. Only Moonlight Masano wasn't seriously injured and maintained most of his strength. However, there was only one Moonlight Masano, but there were three of them.
"Can you still move? Zuo Mu."
Masano asked as he helped Zuo Mu up and let him take a few deep breaths.
"We should still be able to walk."
Zuo Mu said bitterly.
"Then get ready. We'll continue moving. There should be more pursuers. The faster we get out of here, the safer we'll be.”
Masano grabbed one of Sasaki's arms and pulled him up.
"Yes."
Zuo Mu naturally knew the urgency of the current situation. He gritted his teeth and stood up with Moonlight Masano's strength.
The two of them walked to Xuan Zang's side. Moonlight Masano lifted him up and looked at his closed eyes without saying anything.
"Let's go, time is of the essence!"
Masano was expressionless. He carried a person in each hand and headed towards the sand dune not far away.
In the direction where the sand ninja had left, a figure lay on the ground, revealing a pair of vigilant eyes. His sharp gaze was fixed on the slowly advancing Wood Leaf Ninja. When the wind blew past, a sand ninja's forehead guard was revealed.
Moonlight Masano naturally wouldn't be able to move too fast with these people in such a state.
After half an hour, the team was about to leave the area of influence of the sand.
Everything was going so smoothly. There were no pursuers, no obstructions. This made Moonlight Masano feel very strange. They were not far from the Sunin's camp. Logically speaking, the few Sunins who had escaped should have been able to call for reinforcements in such a short time.
"Zuo Mu, are you feeling better?"
Masano stopped in his tracks. He was carrying most of the weight of the two of them, and it was also exhausting for him. In order to maintain his fighting strength, he stopped to rest from time to time.
"Teacher, I feel much better."
Zuo Mu let go of Moonlight's hand that was under his armpit.
"I'll go by myself. Teacher, don't worry about Xuan Zang.”
Sasaki looked at Genzo, who was still in Moonlight Masano's armpit.
"Alright, follow me."
Moonlight Masano was not pretentious. Although he knew that Zuo Mu was injured, he had to persevere in this situation.
Concentrating on Xuan Zang's body, Moonlight Masano felt that Xuan Zang had just moved, as if he was about to wake up.
"Let's continue walking."
Moonlight Masano changed his hand to grab Xuan Zang, his expression unchanged.
"Tsk!"
"Tsk!"
Their figures moved quickly on the sand. The night was their best cover.
Xuan Zang felt his body move in the darkness. With a jolt and a cold wind, his mind began to wake up.
"Puff!"
He spat out a mouthful of blood, and Xuan Zang suddenly woke up as he was moving forward.
"Xuan Zang?"
Masano stopped when he saw Genzo's reaction. Zuo Mu started to pant behind him, his hands supporting his knees.
"Captain, where are we?"
The moment Xuan Zang woke up, he looked around and found that it was no longer the place where he had fought.
"We're still in the territory of the sand, ready to leave.”
Moonlight Masano placed Xuan Zang on the ground.
"Yes."
Xuan Zang touched the wound on his shoulder. It was charred black. He had sealed the wound with lightning. It was not bleeding now, but it still brought him a lot of pain.
The wound on his chest was even more fatal. Xuan Zang saw that it had been bandaged by Yue Guang Zhengye, but the bumpy journey had caused blood to flow from it, soaking his clothes.
"Get on, let's leave this place first."
Moonlight Masano glanced at Xuan Zang's wound and told him to get on his back. Since Xuan Zang was awake, it would be more convenient for him to move forward on his back.
"Zuo Mu, follow!"
As soon as Genzang got on his back, Masano started running forward, leaving Zuo Mu with a shadow.
