Chapter 129 The Chase

As Misa Uzumaki disappeared, the expression of a grass ninja who was searching for Chiga suddenly changed drastically.

He rushed to Eagle Minister and said urgently, "It's terrible, Lord Eagle Minister! Misa Uzumaki has been taken away by them!"

"What?!"

At this moment, Ying Chen's previously composed expression finally changed.

The supplies were destroyed within the area that Eagle Minister accepted.

After all, these supplies were aid from the Land of Earth, so even if they were lost, we could just ask the Land of Earth for them back.

Anyway, the Land of Earth is very wealthy and doesn't lack these resources.

The Iwa ninja of the Land of Earth treated them like watchdogs, but they also treated the Iwa ninja like suckers.

But Misa Uzumaki is different. She is their private property, belonging to the Grass Ninja. Even the Iwa Ninja don't know about her existence.

Moreover, Misa's healing ability is like having several extra lives.

Their ability to consistently suppress the ninjas of the Grass Flower Fruit, while aided by the Land of Earth's support, also relies heavily on Misa Uzumaki's healing abilities.

Now that the mobile blood packs in their village have been lost, how could they not be furious?

The Grass Ninja concealed the sensory ninjutsu on Misa Uzumaki very well, and Misa herself was unaware of it.

Such an important item, allowing her to move freely within the village is already a great favor. Naturally, the Grass Ninja would also leave a mark on Uzumaki Misa to prevent her from escaping.

However, over the years, Misa Uzumaki seems to have resigned herself to her fate and has shown no intention of escaping.

Grass Ninja then lowered his guard.

Unexpectedly, tonight, the supplies were destroyed, and Misa, the mobile blood pack, was taken away.

"Which way did they run off to?"

Eagle Minister glared angrily, grabbed the grass ninja and pulled him in front of him, asking the question.

After sensing the surroundings for a moment with her eyes closed, the Grass Ninja pointed in the direction Chiga had gone and said, "Over there, the enemy is moving very fast; they're already ten kilometers away from us!"

"Impossible! Even a shadow couldn't move that far in such a short time!"

"Yihe, are you mistaken?"

The grass ninjas around who heard this commented on it.

"There's no mistake, the other party isn't moving, they're teleporting, covering a distance of one kilometer each time!"

Yihe shook his head and said.

"Space-time ninjutsu, there's no mistake, it's the Flying Thunder God Technique!"

"Damn it, they're Konoha ninjas!"

Upon hearing this, Yingchen's expression changed drastically. After a moment's thought, he knew what kind of ninjutsu it was.

According to the records of Konoha ninjas, only two ninjas can use the Flying Thunder God Technique, one of whom is Minato Namikaze.

However, Minato Namikaze has been active in the Land of Lightning, and the latest information confirms this.

The other one is...

After eliminating Minato Namikaze, a hint of excitement began to flash in Takaomi's eyes.

If it were Minato Namikaze, Takasato really wouldn't dare to pursue him.

Since Chiga left Minato's team, Minato and Kakashi have made a name for themselves in the ninja world.

Although it's not yet at the point where we should abandon the mission upon encountering the Yellow Flash, Hawk-Shin's strength is not enough to deal with Minato.

"Pursue them! We must retrieve Misa Uzumaki, and we absolutely must capture the Konoha ninjas."

"Uchiha Chika, he's someone the Land of Earth specifically wants!"

"With that brat's head, we can not only get a 20 million bounty, but also exchange it for a lot of supplies from the Iwa ninja!"

With a wave of his hand, Yingchen led three or four hundred Grass Ninjas out.

An hour later, in a cave in the Land of Grass, thirty kilometers away from the Hidden Grass Village.

"Let me rest here for a while and catch my breath!"

Chiga plopped down on the ground, her forehead covered in sweat.

He took out a soldier's ration pill from his ninja tool pouch, put it in his mouth and swallowed it, then gasped for breath to recover his strength.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Chiga and Minato can use the Flying Thunder God Technique to kill enemies multiple times on the battlefield.

That's because when facing an enemy, the distance of each teleportation is only a dozen meters, or even a few meters.

At such a short distance, the chakra consumption is not high.

However, if you use the Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport thousands of meters, the energy consumption will be much greater.

In addition, Chika also brought Sarutobi Asuma and two others, as well as Uzumaki Misa.

So many people increased Chiga's burden, and even Chiga's chakra reserves couldn't withstand such consumption.

Upon hearing this, Sarutobi Asuma and the other two immediately checked their surroundings to see if there was anything wrong.

Seeing Chika's weak appearance, Misa hesitated for a moment before extending her arm, covered in bite marks, to Chika's mouth.

Under Chiga's gaze, she whispered, "One bite will restore you to normal."

"Don't worry, I told you, the ninjas of Konoha wouldn't treat you like that!"

"Besides, we're already tens of kilometers away from Kusagakure, giving us ample time to recover. They won't be able to catch up anytime soon."

Chiga resolutely rejected Misa Uzumaki's offer.

Although taking a bite out of Misa the Whirlpool is the best option right now.

But if Chiga really did that, it would easily make Misa Uzumaki feel like she had just escaped one wolf's den only to fall into another.

Moreover, if Chiga were to use her recovery methods, she could quickly gain points using her emotional intelligence, although that could easily cause a surge in her chakra, making it difficult to control.

Of course, if it really comes to that crucial point, Chiga won't hesitate.

"Yes, Misa-nee, don't worry, the Grass Ninja's methods will never happen in Konoha!"

Shizune, who was standing nearby, also offered her advice.

Seeing that Chiga wouldn't take a bite, and that the other Konoha ninjas were saying the same thing, Misa Uzumaki smiled slightly, and her resentment towards Konoha lessened considerably.

Looking at the surroundings outside the cave entrance, she felt a sense of freedom for the first time. A hint of excitement flashed in her eyes as she thanked Chiga and the other three, saying, "Thank you for bringing me out of Kusagakure!"

"Don't say that. We, the Leaf Village and the Uzumaki clan, are allies. Saving you is the best we can do!"

Upon hearing this, Sarutobi Asuma waved his hand and said.

While his words weren't entirely wrong, it depends on who he was saying them to.

Misa Uzumaki's initially cheerful expression turned somber.

If Konoha truly considered the Uzumaki clan as allies, why did they remain indifferent as the Uzumaki clan was wiped out?

"If you can't have a conversation, just shut up!"

Chika rolled her eyes at Sarutobi Asuma.

"What did I say wrong?"

Sarutobi Asuma scratched his head, not understanding why his words had hurt Uzumaki Misa so much.

Chiga ignored Sarutobi Asuma, and after thinking for a moment, said to Uzumaki Misa:

"I apologize for why Konoha failed to aid the Uzumaki clan ten years ago, but there must be some secret behind it. I don't know the specifics, but my teacher should know. If you have any further questions about this matter, you can ask my teacher."
