Konoha: Uchiha, I get stronger by causing trouble.

Chapter 158 That's a real pity.

"Captain! What's going on? How did this kid get here?"

"I'm still shaken," Sand Ninja, who was controlling the puppet, asked.

The kid was clearly entangled with his captain when he suddenly appeared in front of his teammate, and was instantly controlled with illusion magic. It was terrifyingly powerful.

"He just disappeared suddenly, I don't know what happened!"

The Sand Ninja Captain said that although Chiga's sudden disappearance from his sight was strange, it was not enough to make the Sand Ninja Captain immediately associate it with the Flying Thunder God Technique.

"Be careful, this person is not simple!"

The Sand Ninja Captain had been entangled with Chiga for so long, yet he hadn't even touched the hem of Chiga's clothes. If it weren't for the fact that the other party hadn't touched his clothes either, he would have thought that the other party was going easy on him.

Even so, he had a vague feeling that something was wrong, and even considered whether to retreat.

However, he still had a teammate in the enemy's hands, so he couldn't just leave like that.

After seeing the Sand Ninja controlling the puppet jump away, Chiga glanced behind him.

Seeing that Sarutobi Asuma and the other two were alright for the time being, they stopped paying attention.

He then turned his head and looked directly at the two Sand Ninja in front of him, while the burly Sand Ninja he was controlling stood next to Chiga.

Seeing Chika looking over, the Sand Village captain said in a deep voice, "Kid, your strength is not bad, but your teammates are far inferior!"

Chiga didn't deny it, but glanced at the Sand Ninja and asked, "What are you trying to say?"

The Sand Ninja captain said, "If we continue fighting, no one knows what the outcome will be, but your teammate could die if he doesn't receive timely treatment."

"So, let's make a deal. You release my companion, and then we'll go our separate ways, how about it?"

Upon hearing this, Chiga looked at the Sand Ninja with the same eyes one would give an idiot.

Do you think I'm stupid? If I release the control, and you go back on your word, you'll be fighting three against one. Even if he's not afraid, he wouldn't make such a foolish deal.

The Sand Ninja on the other side seemed to know what Chiga was worried about, and continued, "Of course, before releasing the control, you can first incapacitate my comrades, so you don't have to worry about us going back on our word!"

Although he sensed something was off about the other party, he figured they were probably just hiding a trump card or something, not capable of killing the two of them instantly.

Furthermore, the other party also needs to consider their teammates, so they are confident that Chiga will agree to the deal.

Upon hearing this, Chiga chuckled softly, then glanced at the burly Sand Ninja beside him and said gently, "Since you're so reluctant to leave your comrade, why don't you go with him?"

As he spoke, right in front of the two Sand Ninja, the burly Sand Ninja suddenly picked up the kunai in his hand and slit it across his own neck.

In an instant, the burly Sand Ninja's blood splattered everywhere, and he soon collapsed to the ground, completely lifeless.

"You! You're asking for it!"

Upon seeing this, the Sand Ninja Captain roared in anger. He had watched helplessly as his teammate died in front of him, and his mind was already filled with rage. He no longer cared about what was wrong with Chika.

But before he could do anything, he suddenly saw that the boy in front of him had disappeared.

His face immediately showed shock, and before he could react, he suddenly felt a chill coming from behind him.

"You will all die here!"

Chiga's swift wind pierced through the Sand Ninja Captain's heart, and on the back of the Sand Ninja Captain's clothes was a special pattern, clearly the mark of Chiga's Flying Thunder God Technique.

Although he pretended to be evenly matched with the Sand Ninja Captain, Chiga had already taken the opportunity to leave a Flying Thunder God Technique mark on the Sand Ninja Captain, waiting for a fatal blow.

Before losing consciousness, the Sand Ninja Captain had only one thought in his mind.

If the other party clearly has such strength, why did they pretend to be so weak at the beginning?

With the death of the Sand Ninja Captain, the Sand Ninja who was controlling the puppet had no desire to fight and turned to run away.

Chiga didn't bother with any more words when he chased after a Sand Ninja who had lost the will to fight, and quickly dispatched him.

After eliminating all the Sand Ninja, Chiga finally approached Sarutobi Asuma and the other two.

He glanced at Kurenai Yuhi and saw that although she had many wounds, none of them were fatal and there were no signs of poisoning.

He then turned his gaze to Sarutobi Asuma and frowned.

Chiga asked Shizune, "So, did Asuma manage to die?"

Shizune replied, "It's not a big problem. I can suppress it, but to completely undo it, we need to find a safe place and give me some time."

"That's a real shame!"

Chiga sighed, looking very disappointed.

[Negative emotions from Sarutobi Asuma, emotion value +90!]

"Chiga, I can hear you!"

Upon hearing this, Sarutobi Asuma angrily spat out a mouthful of blood.

This is a genuine case of poisoning. The body's meridians were already eroded due to the poisoning, and the treatment with the silent device was forcibly suppressing the damage.

Hearing Chiga's words, he was instantly consumed by rage and almost died of anger.

"Asma, calm down. If you get any more agitated, the poison will spread to your heart even faster, and then it will be too late!"

Seeing this, Shizune quickly used her Palm Healing Technique to treat Sarutobi Asuma.

He then turned around and glared at Qianhe.

Chiga is good in every way, except that her mouth is even more poisonous than Chiyo's.

Chiga shrugged, not paying any attention to Shizune's glare.

With Chiga's help, Sarutobi Asuma managed to stand up.

Chiga and the other three then headed towards the nearest base.

An hour later, Chiga arrived at the base.

The ninjas at the base had already learned of Chiga's team's arrival through their sentries.

The leader was an old acquaintance, Hyuga Hizashi.

Upon seeing Chiga and the others approach, he asked in confusion, "Why are you here again? Didn't you just deliver the intelligence?"

"We encountered some problems on our way back. Asuma was poisoned and is not fit to travel, so we can only rest at your base for a while."

Chiga explained.

"What? Asuma's been poisoned?"

"Medical team, quick! All of you, get out here!"

Upon hearing this, Hyuga Hizashi looked at Sarutobi Asuma and, seeing Asuma's pale face, immediately roared towards the base.

Just kidding, he's not a heartless person like Chika.

The Third Hokage's son has been poisoned. If he dies in their base due to improper treatment, they will all be punished.

At Hyuga Hizashi's call, all the medical ninjas in the base came out and began to treat Sarutobi Asuma.

This instantly improved Sarutobi Asuma's expression considerably; as expected, not everyone is as infuriating as Chiga.
