"I heard that hero from Sunagakure was also a great beauty. What a pity..."

A bargaining chip for Sunagakure? A stunning beauty? Is it Pakura?!

The expression beneath the Wuyue mask froze for a moment, and a scene from the original story suddenly came to mind.

The Sand Village is currently locked in a fierce battle with the Iwa Village, and to eliminate any potential threats from their rear, they dispatched Pakura to Kirigakure on a secret mission. However, this is clearly a conspiracy.

When Yekura stepped into Kirigakure's territory, she was ambushed by Kirigakure ninja and died a gruesome death at their hands. In reality, she was used as a sacrifice by the Fourth Kazekage in a deal with Kirigakure.

Even though I've changed a lot, is the plot still developing the same as always?

Wuyue didn't know what expression she should wear at this moment. Anger, sorrow, grief? Or perhaps, reluctance? No, none of these!

Yes, he simply didn't want her to die, that's all! He'd fought that woman several times, and he hadn't been able to kill her. How could he let her die at someone else's hands?!

Bang.

With a sudden acceleration in mid-air, Wuyue shot past the Hidden Mist Ninja like an arrow shot out of the sky.

still!

In an instant, the Hidden Mist ninjas seemed to be petrified, their bodies frozen in place. This continued until Mugetsu's figure completely disappeared.

Puff puff.

Spurts of blood shot from the waists of each of them. Thump, thump, their severed bodies lay scattered on the ground, and the dense forest returned to silence.

Taking down this squad of Hidden Mist ninja was just a minor incident. At this moment, Mugetsu's spiritual energy was circulating at full speed. If this were in the world of "Bleach," based solely on his Shunpo (Instant Step) skill, he would definitely be at the "Vice-Captain" level.

"This is...poisonous fog?"

Dozens of seconds later, Wuyue's figure appeared at the pass of a canyon. A layer of hazy gray mist permeated the valley, containing some kind of peculiar chakra component. "It should be some kind of mental toxin. It can cause dizziness and even disrupt the chakra within the body."

No wonder Pakura, a hero-level figure from Sunagakure in the original Naruto manga, with at least elite Jonin strength, was killed so easily. If he was poisoned, that makes sense. However, this kind of poison would be almost completely useless against his current constitution.

A thought flashed through his mind, and Wuyue raised her index and middle fingers again, activating her Byakugan and locking onto her target. "Is it there?"

"Damn it..."

In the secret passage on the south side of the valley, Ye Cang, draped in a black cloak, lay sprawled on the ground, her body riddled with kunai like a hedgehog. Her eyes held confusion, bewilderment, resentment, and anger; this outcome was completely different from the mission she had been given.

"Yakura, we meet again."

"It's ironic that we're meeting under these circumstances."

"Haha, the heroes of Sunagakure... how pathetic."

"You probably don't know why you ended up like this, Miss Hero. Let us reluctantly explain it to you."

"Well, it's not some complicated or bizarre story. In short, the peace between our two countries was achieved with your death as the foundation. In a way, you could say that's the end for a hero."

· ……

The ninjas of Kirigakure spoke of the final word "hero" with a deep sense of mockery.

So that's how it is. Were we betrayed by our own village?

Yekura's mind was gradually becoming hazy, but she still managed to reach out and pull a ninja sword from her bosom. The "moon" character on the hilt was clearly visible, and the blade gleamed with a chilling light, obviously because she polished it frequently.

"Ha, as expected... I'd rather die by your blade than by someone else's hand..." In the end, even Ye Cang's voice gradually faded away, and blood soaked into her chest from her back.

What is she saying?

"I can't hear clearly. But it's probably some kind of curse."

"Oh? Look, she's still holding a knife. Is she planning to continue resisting?"

"Interesting. Still not giving up at this point? You're clearly a pathetic guy abandoned by the village."

"Well, let me deliver the final blow. It's a bit of a shame that the news of her death in Kirigakure can't be spread."

The moment those words were spoken, another unfamiliar voice suddenly rang out. "You have no chance."

"Who goes there?!"

"Be careful, Yekura isn't the only enemy!"

"Being careful won't help." A white figure suddenly appeared in the arena, sword in hand, slashing through the air.

Swish.

A bright silver sword beam suddenly pierced the air, instantly sweeping across the bodies of the Hidden Mist ninjas amidst their terrified, bewildered, and astonished gazes.

Pfft, pfft.

Several heads flew into the air, blood spurting out.

"You are all dead." At this moment, Wuyue's words fell, and without even glancing at the severed limbs and remains scattered on the ground, she quickly walked towards Yecang.

217 The Legendary Electrotherapy

His vital signs are weak, and even his pulse is starting to disappear... This is a bit difficult.

Kneeling down, Wuyue placed his right hand on Yecang's neck veins, a slightly serious expression on his face. The wound wasn't a problem; with his current healing abilities, he could completely heal even internal organ damage.

The key issue is the excessive blood loss, which is somewhat troublesome. However, it's not without a solution. Simply channeling one's own Yang Release chakra into the opponent's heart, allowing it to generate new blood, will perfectly resolve the problem.

However, just as he was about to remove the other party's cloak and begin the rescue, a hateful notification sound rang in his ears like the whisper of a devil.

Make your choice, dear host.

First, press your hands against the other person's chest and use electric shock therapy to stimulate blood flow.

Second, use Yin-Yang Release: Kato's Fingers of the Hawk to revive the opponent with full health.

Third, let's have a go while it's hot.

puff.

Wuyue froze instantly, her body trembling. What the hell is this electroconvulsive therapy?! And what the hell is "Yin Yang Release: Kato Hawk's Finger"? Is it some kind of weird action from those Japanese adult films? And this "while it's hot" thing... Forget it, I don't even want to talk about it anymore.

Taking a deep breath, Wuyue reached out and began to act according to the first option. In fact, the moment his hands touched the other person's body, a faint electric current immediately spread.

Zzzzz, zzzzz.

This electric current wasn't generated by Wuyue himself. Rather, the system converted it into a specific skill through his neural pathways. This conversion process was recorded by Wuyue's body, and from then on, it became another means for him.

cough cough.

The system's capabilities are naturally extraordinary. The electrotherapy employed based on it is far more reliable than that of Professor Yang. In no time, Ye Cang's pale face regained its color, and he showed signs of gradually waking up.

"Congratulations, host, for completing the selection. You will be rewarded with fifty days of cultivation and five years of dragon growth cycle."

Hearing the system notification, Wuyue's lips twitched slightly. So, in the end, your goal was just to get me to press my chest against hers? You've completely lost your morals, you bastard! ︴ 灬 She thought to herself, but her hand showed no sign of letting go. This feeling… cough cough, men understand.

"As time passed, the mist in the valley gradually dissipated. Wuyue, having finished her electrotherapy, began the routine resuscitation treatment. She turned Yekura over, tore off her cloak, and a ball of firelight emerged from her hands, covering her wounds."

Clang.

A crisp sound.

Only then did Wuyue notice the ninja sword that had fallen from her hand. A hint of astonishment flashed in his eyes. "This is my sword? Why did she always carry it on her? Could it be... no way!" In an instant, he was filled with turmoil.

Just then, Ye Cang, who had been lying on the ground, slowly woke up. He looked around blankly, and then, as if sensing something, suddenly turned his gaze to Wu Yue.

Their eyes met, and the atmosphere became extremely subtle at that moment.

"asshole!"

With gritted teeth, Ye Cang pushed herself up with both hands and suddenly stood up. Even though she was confused by the situation, her long-cultivated fighting habits allowed her to quickly form hand seals. "Scum of Kirigakure, die!" Balls of blazing fire quickly appeared around her.

Scorching Escape: Over-Steam Kill!

The fireball quickly circled in mid-air. Then, at Yekura's command, it hurtled towards Mugetsu on the opposite side.

"What a nostalgic skill," Wuyue exclaimed sincerely, her hands moving swiftly. She stretched out her hands and formed a peculiar seal in mid-air.

Swish swish.

Several fireballs, ten times larger than Yekura's fireball, formed around Mugetsu... and, following his command, swiftly attacked, engulfing Yekura's Scorching Release. Then, they grazed past Yekura's body and flew behind her.

Rumble.

A loud explosion.

Like rockets hitting their target, several fireballs exploded in the dense forest behind Yekura. A semi-circular light shield appeared, and a huge mushroom cloud rose into the air.

"This, this is..." Ye Cang was completely stunned, his face showing disbelief.

“You guessed right, that’s also a Scorching Release.” Mugetsu, wearing a Mist-Hiding Mask, tilted her head and toyed with the ninja sword in her hand. “I call it Scorching Release: Sunburst. Isn’t that fitting?”

No, impossible! How could this guy from Kirigakure know Scorch Release? Moreover, his Scorch Release is far more powerful and terrifying than mine!

Ye Cang's brows furrowed deeply. Then, her gaze suddenly fell upon the blade in the other person's hand. "You, give it back to me!" Without the slightest hesitation, she immediately reached out and grabbed at Wu Yue.

Seeing her anxious expression, Wuyue's mischievous side was aroused, and her wicked pleasure resurfaced. "Want it? Catch me first." With a flash, she vanished. 1.8

what?

Ye Cang was startled. Before she could react, the other person patted her on the shoulder.

This speed is simply illogical!

Seeing the masked man suddenly appear beside her, Ye Cang's heart sank to the bottom. If he had wanted to kill her just now, she wouldn't even have had a chance to react.

But what's the point of him doing this? Just toying with himself? And why does that voice sound so familiar, like...

As if remembering something, Ye Cang suddenly calmed down and stared intently at the other person.

218 On the methods of winning over a tsundere (initially arrogant/tsundere)

"Who are you?" Ye Cang frowned and asked coldly, "Who exactly are you?"

This girl seems to have discovered something... This is so boring.

Wuyue, somewhat disheartened, brandished the blade in her hand and looked up. "Who I am, does it matter? Your goal isn't to get this knife back?"

"Now that it has been returned to its rightful owner," Ye Cang said coldly in a deep voice. "Whether I come back or not is no longer relevant."

She guessed it after all. If women were this smart, it wouldn't be very interesting.

Wu Yue thought helplessly to herself, but pretended not to know. "What does 'returning something to its rightful owner' mean?"

"The literal meaning." Ye Cang's attitude grew even colder, her eyes now filled with a hint of indignation. "You can continue playing your role-playing game; I'm not playing along." She turned and left.

"Hey, wait a minute." Wuyue called out to her from behind, grabbing her arm. "Where are you going? It's going to get really dangerous here soon, okay?"

"My affairs are none of your business." Ye Cang abruptly pulled his hand away and said coldly, "You're nobody to me."
