Konoha, reported by the Fourth Hokage at the beginning

She knew that she was a burden to her mother.

She also knew that if she died, her mother would no longer have the desire to live.

But as long as she is still alive, her mother will continue to endure endless pain, becoming other people's food, and being gnawed at by others at will.

It's neither death nor life.

Endless pain and endless despair surrounded the red-haired mother and daughter.

the next day.

Before the sun came out, the small door of the wooden house was knocked on. After the red-haired woman told her daughter not to leave the house, she opened the door and walked out with a numb look on her face.

When the little girl Ye Zi saw her mother's numb face like a zombie when she finally closed the door, her heart felt as if it was tied by a thin rope, with the other end tied to her mother. She felt waves of heartache as her mother went away.

Unconsciously, a drop of dried tear fell from the corner of my eye.

Ye Zi clenched her hands and let go, clenched them and let go again, and finally let go completely. She crawled back to a corner of the wooden house where the sun couldn't reach her, and silently looked at the wooden door, waiting for her mother to come back.

……

The country of Taki.

On a mountain road in the central mountainous area.

Three black iron chains stretched out from behind Li Yao, tightly binding the three ninjas with Takigakure forehead protectors on their foreheads.

"Do you know where the Uzumaki clan is?"

A Takigakure ninja was tied up with black iron chains and pulled in front of Li Yao. He took back the illusion chakra in the man's head, and when the man woke up, he immediately asked.

"who are you?"

The awakened Takigakure ninja did not answer Li Yao's question. After all, if anyone is walking on the road and suddenly his eyes go dark, and when he regains consciousness and opens his eyes to find that he has been tied up with chains by a stranger, he will subconsciously ask who tied him up.

"Let me go, you bastard."

The Takigakure ninja didn't seem to understand his situation. While his body was struggling, he cursed Li Yao.

"Do you know anyone from the Uzumaki clan?" Li Yao continued to ask.

Squeak, squeak, squeak... As I asked, the black iron chain was compressing.

"Ugh..." Takigakure's face turned red instantly, and his body seemed to be crushed.

Now, the Takigakure ninja finally realized his situation, and the fear in his eyes when he looked at Li Yao could no longer be hidden.

"Who are you? Do we have a grudge? Why are you arresting me?"

The Takigakure ninja saw that there was no ninja village forehead protector on Li Yao's forehead and guessed that Li Yao was probably not from the Kusagakure Village, so the only option was to seek revenge.

But he didn't remember that he had an enemy like Li Yao.

"I'll ask you again, do you know anyone from the Uzumaki clan?"

Li Yao frowned slightly and lost his patience. If he asked again and asked more, there would be no need for this person to continue wasting his time.

The Takigakure ninja understood the murderous intent in Li Yao's eyes and knew that if he didn't give Li Yao an answer that would satisfy him, he would lose his life.

Thinking of this, he suddenly became anxious, and his mind frantically recalled information about the Uzumaki clan. At this time, the intelligence information about a medical ninja in the Kusagakure headquarters on the front battlefield came into his mind. Although the identity of the medical ninja has not been confirmed, he can no longer care about it at this time, and immediately said: "I heard that there is a red-haired medical ninja behind the Kusagakure front battlefield. The body of the medical ninja is very special. He can recover from injuries as long as he is bitten by someone."

"That red-haired medical ninja must be from the Uzumaki clan. Only the Uzumaki clan has red hair and a powerful inheritance of medical ninjutsu."

Red hair.

The ability to heal injuries with just one bite.

After listening to what the Takigakure ninja said, Li Yao thought for a moment, then his eyes lit up, knowing that he had found someone from the Uzumaki clan, and it seemed that he was a member of the Uzumaki clan with good talent.

The medical ninja from Kusagakure should have the same physique as Uzumaki Karin. Maybe she is Karin's mother... or father?

Regardless of his identity, that medical ninja must know a lot about the Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques, so it would be a good idea to learn from him.

"Come on, take me to find the medical ninja from the Uzumaki clan."

Li Yao pulled the Takigakure ninja onto the back of the black iron giant eagle. After the other two Takigakure lost their value and their chakra was devoured and stored in a huge sealing scroll, Li Yao gave the two of them a quick death.

When Takigakure, who survived, saw this scene, his body trembled for a moment, and then he calmed down.

late at night.

Kusataki and the border between the two countries.

At the Kusagakure base camp, a red-haired woman returned to her cabin after a day of "treatment", holding her daughter, and looking out the window with lifeless eyes.

She didn't know how long she could hold on.

I don’t know if this persistence can help her daughter survive?

She knew nothing. Despair had been hanging over them since the moment they escaped from the Land of Whirlpools.

The entire ninja world is hunting them down.

Along the way, the surviving tribesmen lost contact and died one by one.

Her husband also died while trying to cover her and her daughter's escape.

In the end, he and his daughter could not escape and were caught by Kusagakure.

She is alive now because she is still useful. Once she can no longer hold on and dies, her daughter will follow in her footsteps and be eaten like meat until the day she dies.

"Who's going to save us?"

“Who will come to rescue us?”

There was no hope in the numb eyes of the red-haired woman. On the way to escape, she saw with her own eyes that Konoha's Anbu were also hunting down the Uzumaki clan members.

Even Konoha, with whom they have been friends for generations, is hunting them down. Who else in this world can help them?

"Well...this is..."

Suddenly, a bright light flashed in the red-haired woman's numb eyes, and she quickly stood up.

"Mom..." Seeing this, Ye Zi, the little girl who was lying in her mother's arms, stood up and followed her mother with a puzzled look on her face.

The red-haired woman quickly walked to the door of the wooden house, opened it and walked out. Ye Zi hugged her mother's waist and looked outside carefully.

gold!

The golden chains were like intertwined vines, densely covering the entire camp, as if dyeing the entire camp golden.

Ye Zi looked at the golden chains curiously.

For some reason, she always felt that these golden chains were very familiar and kind.

“The tribe…the tribe…the tribe members are here to rescue us!”

Chapter 142 Misunderstandings seem good

Chapter 142 Misunderstanding...seems not bad

The red-haired woman was already in tears. She picked up her daughter and ran towards where the golden chains gathered.

Who is the only ninja in the entire ninja world who can use the golden chakra chain?

There is no doubt that he must be a member of the Uzumaki clan.

Anyone who can use such a large-scale Diamond Blockade must be a strong one in the Uzumaki clan.

She didn't know who this strong man was, but there was no doubt that he came to save her and her daughter.

The Kusagakure base camp is not very big, with a diameter of about two kilometers.

The maximum distance that Li Yao can release his illusion is 500 meters, which means that the entire circular area with a radius of 500 meters centered on him is within the coverage of his illusion.

To kill all the ninjas within a two-kilometer diameter in seconds, Li Yao only needs to create five clones.

In the middle of the base camp, Li Yao placed his hands on the opened huge scroll.

Countless golden chakra chains shot out from the scroll and pierced into the bodies of the Kusagakure ninjas in the camp who had been deprived of all their senses by the sensory deprivation technique, absorbing their chakra.

"Mom... this is..."

At this time, the little girl Ye Zi finally realized something from the golden chakra chains, but she was afraid that it was just a dream. She tried her best to suppress the joy of surviving the disaster and looked at her mother with eyes full of expectation and anxiety.

The red-haired woman nodded vigorously and said, "Ye Zi, it was our tribe members who came to save us. It was really our tribe members who came to save us."

Along the way, the Kusagakure ninjas in the camp remained motionless, allowing the golden chakra chains to devour and plunder their chakra.

The golden chakra chain showed no reaction to the mother and daughter passing by.

Obviously, the tribesmen knew them and came to rescue them.

"That's great, Mom."

"Woo woo...Mom, you don't have to be bitten by those bad guys anymore, woo woo..."

The little girl Ye Zi couldn't hold back the joy and excitement in her heart at last. She cried loudly and her tears never dried up again.

"Well, no need."

While running, the red-haired woman held her daughter's skinny hand tightly and said, "Ye Zi will no longer have to be hungry."

Bang, bang, bang... Just as the mother and daughter ran to the center of the camp, the sound of huge watermelons exploding suddenly rang out around them.

In an instant, blood-red mist filled the air.

Under the moonlight, the entire camp was silent, and blood-red mist shrouded the surroundings, as if to resist.

"Who?"

At this moment, Li Yao suddenly raised his head and looked a hundred meters above his left side. There was... nothing.

"Illusion?"

Li Yao frowned. He had clearly sensed a nearly transparent chakra flame figure flashing by a hundred meters in the air, but how could it disappear in an instant?

Is it really an illusion?

Do not!

It can't be an illusion.

Li Yao recalled the moment when the Diamond Blockade devoured all the ninja chakra in the entire Kusagakure camp, and he controlled the Diamond Blockade chain to smash the heads of all the Kusagakure ninjas in the camp. The moment was almost the same as the moment when he sensed the vague chakra flame figure in the air.

Obviously, there was indeed a human-shaped chakra there just now, or someone was observing him from a very long distance using some secret technique that he didn't know about.

This person must have seen the bloody scene of him killing so many Kusagakure in an instant, and for a moment he could not control his inner emotions, which caused violent fluctuations and caused the instability of the secret technique, which made him sense the abnormality.

Absolutely.

There was no way his chakra sensing abilities could be wrong.

"But... there is actually a ninjutsu that can evade my chakra perception ability!!!"

Li Yao's heart was shocked. This was not someone hiding a hundred meters underground, but in the air. There was actually someone who could use ninjutsu to observe him at such a close distance, and he couldn't even detect it.

If it weren't for this accidental collision that caused the other party's emotions to fluctuate violently, he might never have discovered that he was being monitored.

"who is it?"

"From Konoha or... should be someone from Konoha."

Li Yao has seen the people from Iwagakure and Kumogakure, so it can only be the people from Konoha. They are the only ones who would reveal their whereabouts, and he will not take any action.

Konoha should still have the same idea as the Sarutobi Tenzhu couple before, preparing to let Iwagakure and Kumogakure consume him, and wait until he explodes again like he did in the last battle with the Third Raikage, and when he is weak, Konoha's people will attack him again.

If Sarutobi Tenju and his wife hadn't failed to resist his illusion last time, Li Yao would have been defeated.

This time, Konoha must be aware of his powerful illusion, and if they attack again, they must have a way to resist his illusion.

But...haha!

Li Yao sneered, controlled all the King Kong seals to return to the huge sealing scroll, and then put the scroll back into the black water space.

He is different now than he was a year ago.

In this era of the ninja world where Nagato has not grown up and Madara is unable to survive, his strength is no longer feared by anyone.

Even if the weakness is insufficient chakra, with the giant scroll, it is no longer a fatal weakness.

"Come on, I'll kill as many as you can!"

Li Yao was determined to fight back fiercely against the Third Raikage like he did before.

Even if you meet the Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki who can use Dust Release... uh... you still have to escape.
