Konoha: From meeting Kaguya Otsutsuki

It is obviously me who has paid the most!

I am the one who has been busy all the time, experienced life and death, and endured humiliation and hardship!

Could it be that a thousand years of hard work is not as good as his few years of companionship?

Black Zetsu felt sour in his heart and made a decision secretly.

We must untie these two people as soon as possible.

Black Zetsu felt deeply jealous. He finally understood that if he was too far away from his mother, she would not be able to feel his devotion. He had to hang around her from time to time.

He couldn't tolerate Hinata Yangxi monopolizing his mother's love!

...

Huh...huh...huh...

Xianglin breathed heavily, and the woman next to her made a "hush" gesture. She immediately understood and tried to lower the frequency and sound of her breathing.

Beside her, a female kunoichi wearing a Kusanagi forehead protector was looking around.

They have been on the run for almost a whole day since last night.

Not only am I exhausted, but I am also mentally and physically drained from having to concentrate for such a long time.

A slight sound was heard next to her ear, and the female ninja immediately held down Karin's head, and the two of them immediately lay on the ground.

Boom boom boom.

An explosion sounded, bringing with it not only burning sparks, but also flying earth and thick smoke.

Xianglin and the other person looked at each other and immediately took the opportunity to quickly move forward.

After the two left, the three male Kusanagi continued to curse.

Although they were not killed, their clothes had become tattered due to repeated encounters with explosive traps.

"Another trap. How many traps did that woman set?"

"She must have planned this day a long time ago."

The leading ninja Jujo squatted down and checked the traces on the ground.

"She can't run far with such a burden."

"Walk."

The three of them took a bite of the dry food they brought with them, determined the direction, and started chasing again.

...

"Why did they start running for their lives?"

After being sent to a nearby location by White Zetsu, Yang Xi watched the chase scene with his eyes rolled back.

White Zetsu explained, "The Kusagakure Village is too cruel. That woman wanted to take Karin to the Great Ninja Village in exchange for a better future."

"With the Uzumaki bloodline in Karin, whether she is used as a backup candidate for Jinchūriki or for further training, there will be ninja villages willing to accept her."

"She had been deliberately trying to gain Karin's trust."

"Oh, I met someone in the same industry." Yang Xi smiled.

...

"Well, how long do we have to go?"

In the jungle, Xianglin asked weakly with a pale face.

She was so tired and even felt a little regretful. Could she really escape from those people?

Is it really the right choice to leave this person?

The female kunoichi replied, "Once we cross this jungle, we can..."

Before she finished speaking, a cold voice reached their ears.

"Unfortunately, you don't have that chance!"

Along with this sound, a feeling of being paralyzed all over the body came along as the electric current was concentrated on me.

Jujo was using his Lightning Release - Thunder Ring again.

hum…

Xianglin was the first one who lost control. Her body felt numb and her legs became uncontrollable. She fell to her knees with a plop.

The physical fitness of the female ninja who is a Chunin is much better than hers.

The footsteps gradually approached. The female kunoichi moved her somewhat stiff body and pulled Karin in front of her as quickly as possible. She took out a kunai, put it against her neck, and said sternly: "If you come any closer, I will kill her."

The three Kusanagi ninjas' faces grew colder and colder, and they stopped.

"If Karin dies, even Jujo-sama will be severely punished." The female ninja sneered.

Ten eyes flashed, and he was weighing in his mind how to snatch the person.

The two Grass Ninjas following behind him took out their weapons and were ready to take action as long as he gave the order.

An icy chill spread from her neck to her entire body, and Xianglin felt gloomy in her heart.

I never thought that I trusted the wrong person after all.

She originally thought that the woman would lead her to a new life, but unexpectedly, at the critical moment of life and death, she was only regarded as a bargaining chip.

Just as the two groups were confronting each other, Yang Xi walked over and appeared in the sight of several people.

"Karin, what have you been doing lately? You haven't shown up, so I thought you were busy with something else."

Xianglin was startled.

Could it be that this person has been waiting for her at that lake?

After that encounter, she never went there again.

Chapter 143 Black Zetsu's Careful Plan

"Hinata? Are you a ninja from Konoha?" Seeing the appearance of a stranger, Jujo and others immediately became alert.

"Xiang Lin is my friend, can you let her go?" Yang Xi asked.

"You little brat, who do you think you are? Stop meddling in other people's business!" Jujo shouted angrily.

Although his attitude was not very friendly, he had no intention of taking action.

The most important thing is that the strength of this Konoha ninja is unclear.

What's more, once a fight breaks out, Karin and the others might take the opportunity to escape, thus attracting fire for others in vain.

When Xianglin realized that Yang Xi stopped talking, she suddenly became a little panicked.

After looking at everyone's faces and hesitating for a while, Xianglin whispered, "Save me!"

Yang Xi didn't respond, as if she didn't hear anything. Xiang Lin's voice became even louder, "Please, please save me!"

The female ninja covered Karin's mouth tightly, not caring whether she was hurt or in pain, and looked at Yang Xi and several other Kusa ninjas vigilantly.

Tears welled up in Karin's eyes.

"Actually, I'm in a hurry and have to go back to cook." After a moment of silence, Yang Xi said slowly.

When the Kusashi and the others were confused, he rushed towards the Jujo trio.

Jujo cursed inwardly but had to face his attack.

The female kunoichi who was holding Karin hostage curled up her lips into a smile and turned away with Karin.

In order to prevent Karin from struggling, the female ninja knocked her unconscious.

In despair, Karin fell into a coma.

Although Yang Xi always thought that he could only deal with jonin, what kind of people did he usually come into contact with? They were old-school jonin like Hiashi, and Kage-level masters like Tsunade.

A weak jonin like the ones from Kusa Village could not possibly pose any threat to him, and could not even keep up with his speed.

The blue Rasengan was pressed on Jujo's heart, and the other two ninjas' hearts also had to withstand Yang Xi's empty palm.

Three people died.

...

Her body seemed to be pushed by something. Karin regained consciousness, opened her eyes, and sat up.

"It's okay now." Yang Xi stood in front of her and said with a smile.

Hearing this, Karin looked around nervously.

The female ninja was lying not far away, motionless.

"She's dead." Yang Xi looked in the direction she was looking and said calmly.

Xianglin was a little dazed and didn't know what expression to make for a moment.

"Well, I'm leaving too. See you next time, Karin. Although I don't know what happened between you and those Kusanagi ninjas, it's best not to run to their territory. There might be a conflict."

After glancing at Xianglin, Yang Xi turned around and was about to leave.

Go? Then what should I do? Xianglin was a little confused at the moment.

Xianglin walked up quickly, took his arm, and said softly: "That..."

"What?" Yang Xi asked.

"...I don't know where to go. Can I follow you for a while? When my body recovers, I will definitely not bother you anymore. I can take care of myself." Xianglin whispered.

"Karin, you should have listened to them just now. I am a ninja from Konoha."

Konoha?

Yes, a big ninja village like that would definitely not take in outsiders so easily, right?

Xianglin let go of her hand with a sad look on her face, "...Is it not possible?"

Yang Xi sighed, "What I mean is that if you follow me, you may have to join Konoha as well."

"Okay." Xianglin pursed her lips and responded.

...

Konoha, Yang Xi's home.

Kaguya hesitated for a while, but finally decided to throw away the dishes she had made.

It's black and doesn't look like food at all.

This kind of thing really requires practice.

Black Zetsu stopped her, "Mother, please leave it, maybe it tastes good."

A moment later, Yang Xi and Xiang Lin appeared in front of them at the same time.

After staring at Jue for a long time, Xianglin felt strange.

Is this guy with a yin-yang face also considered a human being? Why is there grass growing on his body?

Brother Yang Xi’s family members are really strange.

After bringing Karin back, Yang Xi left again.

There is also Kimimaro, so we might as well bring him back together.

Her gaze lingered on Kaguya and Zetsu for a while before Karin came back to her senses and walked forward hesitantly with a cautious look on her face.

"Excuse me, are you the hostess here?"

She was asking Kaguya.

Hearing this, Kaguya was stunned.

Before she could answer, Black Zetsu spoke for her, "No."

After thinking for a while, Black Zetsu continued: "Karin, right? Welcome to join this big family. We have prepared a room specially for you."

Xianglin's face showed surprise and astonishment.

Black Zetsu smiled strangely and took Karin into the empty room that Yang Xi had cleared out earlier.
