Naruto Paradise

Qing, who was pinching Naruto's neck, felt a burning pain in his hand.

Bang!

The body of this shadow clone suddenly turned into a puff of white smoke and disappeared on the spot.

Naruto, who lost his restraint, also fell from the tree.

But with the tailed beast's chakra coat, he quickly turned his body in space with the help of branches, and rushed towards the enemy's body on another big tree like a beast.

"Let Sasuke go!"

"Could this little brat be..."

Konoha's Jinchūriki!?

Feeling the heart-pounding chakra from the young man rushing towards him, Qing quickly knocked out Sasuke who was caught by him, and then started to run away while carrying him.

"Kakashi-sensei, he's captured Sasuke!"

The noise outside naturally woke up Kakashi and Uzuki Yugao in the house.

Sakura looked at the two people coming out and quickly pointed towards the strange ninja who was fleeing with Sasuke on the treetop as if asking for help.

"It's a ninja from the Hidden Mist Village..."

Kakashi walked out of the house still leaning on crutches.

"Does Zabuza have other companions?"

"I'm going to save people!"

Uzuki Yugao chased after him without saying a word, and at the same time, she looked at Naruto, who was also chasing the ninja from the Hidden Mist Village, with a slightly strange look.

Will the Jinchūriki be okay if he goes berserk like this?

"Sakura, just stay here and be careful."

Although Kakashi was still very weak, he couldn't care less at this point.

In addition to the kidnapped Sasuke, Naruto's current condition is also worrying.

He had to keep up.

After hearing the noise outside, Terumi Mei, who had already sneaked into the house, knew that her companion Ao had led away most of the Konoha ninjas.

"are you asleep?"

However, when she broke into the target room, she found that the other person was lying on the bed wrapped in a quilt and sleeping soundly.

"You're so unprepared? That's good, I'll suffer less..."

Taking out a kunai from her sleeve, Mei Terumi restrained her breath, lowered her steps, walked to the bed, and then stabbed the boy in the neck.

puff!

The body pierced by the kunai did not bleed, but instead it felt like it had pierced wood.

Bang!

After the white smoke cleared, Mei Terumi discovered that what was lying on the bed was just a tree stump.

"Fake body?"

Realizing that something was wrong, Mei Terumi was about to turn around when she saw a cold light on her neck.

"Ninjas from the Hidden Mist Village? What's their purpose?"

The Uchiha Kage, who had known that someone was coming in, held a kunai against the back of the person's neck.

The female ninja's long reddish-brown hair had an unusually pleasant scent.

Moreover, although there was only faint moonlight in the room, just by looking at the outline, Uchiha Kage knew that the female ninja who came to assassinate her was quite well-equipped.

"Little brother, you're asking even though you already know the answer?"

Although someone held her vitals against a kunai, there was no sign of panic on Terumi Mei's face.

"Give me Zabuza's body, or we in the Hidden Mist Village will never let you go."

"So you're really here for the corpse?"

The Uchiha Kage had long noticed that someone was secretly following them.

This is also the reason why he deliberately asked Uzuki Yugao to hand over Zabuza's body to him tonight.

However, he never expected that the ninja who would come to deal with them would be the famous female ninja from the Hidden Mist Village, the future Fifth Mizukage Mei Terumi.

"If you know, hand it over quickly, otherwise——"

Mei Terumi, who was held down by the Uchiha Kage's kunai, suddenly turned into a puddle of water.

When she appeared again, she was already behind Uchiha Kage, and the kunai in her hand was pressed against Uchiha Kage's lower back.

"kill you."

Although her tone was gentle, the murderous aura emanating from Mei Terumi was hard to ignore.

"Water body?"

Uchiha Ying was slightly surprised when he was held back by the female ninja again.

"Hurry up and give me the corpse scroll!"

Pressing hard against the boy's body, Terumi Mei urged him in a cold tone this time.

"You can't get the scroll unless you kill me."

"A guy who's not afraid of death... huh?"

Mei Terumi was just about to use a kunai to attack the boy in front of her, but she discovered that the boy's body had also turned into a pool of water.

Water clone!?

Will he?

Before she could be surprised, she felt a strong wind coming from behind her.

boom!

Mei Terumi's body was kicked hard and flew away. The wooden wall of the house was smashed into a big hole by her body like paper-pasted tofu, and then she fell onto the open grass outside.

"Did you block it with your arms?"

Looking at Mei Terumi, who was kicked away but still managed to keep her balance, the Uchiha Kage muttered secretly.

"Shadow? And this guy... is he an enemy too!?"

Sakura, who was guarding outside the house and looking worriedly towards the forest, didn't expect that a strange female ninja would suddenly fly out of the house.

Seeing the Uchiha Movie Queen coming out afterwards, Sakura quickly understood the situation and quickly took out a kunai to protect herself.

This just happened to give Mei Terumi a chance to exploit her weakness.

"What a sentimentless brat! He actually got violent towards such a beautiful elder sister like me just because of a disagreement. But..."

We can't waste any more time. Qing won't be able to hold out for long. We must succeed as soon as possible before the Konoha ninjas come back to support us!

With just a flash, Mei Terumi appeared behind Sakura, clamped Sakura's hand holding the kunai with one hand, and pressed the kunai against her neck with the other hand.

"If you don't want this little girl to die, hand over the scroll!"

"Shadow...yes, I'm sorry..."

Sakura wanted to resist, but she couldn't.

The enemy's strength is far greater than hers.

"A ninja's priority is the mission. The lives of their companions are not worth mentioning. Don't you even know this?"

The Uchiha Kage looked at Mei Terumi coldly.

"You think you can threaten me with your companions? What a naive ninja."

"Tsk, I didn't expect that someone with such a pretty face could be so cold-blooded."

Indeed, compared to the importance of the mission, the life of a fellow Genin meant nothing.

Mei Terumi just didn't expect that the young man in front of her didn't even hesitate at all.

Not at all like a young ninja.

"Thanks for the compliment."

The Uchiha Kage said no more, and started to make hand seals as if he really didn't care whether Sakura lived or died.

"This seal is... Water Dragon Bullet Technique?"

Mei Terumi was a little surprised when she saw the boy forming hand seals so quickly.

Is he capable of performing high-level ninjutsu at such a young age?

But why does this water dragon bullet leave so many marks?

Uchiha Kage understood the surprise in Mei Terumi's eyes, but who made Zabuza need to perform so many hand seals to cast the Water Dragon Bullet?

He didn't want to either.

"Little girl, remember, don't get too close to such a cold-blooded man in the future."

Seeing that the Uchiha Kage really seemed to have no intention of saving the little girl in his arms, Terumi Mei had no choice but to put her aside.

Prepare to deal with the upcoming Water Dragon Bullet Technique with all your strength.

"You are such a kind person."

With a bang, a puff of white smoke drifted by, and Sakura, who had just been caught by Terumi Mei, instantly turned into the appearance of Uchiha Kage.

"What!?"

It's actually a transformation technique? When did this guy set this up?

Realizing that something was wrong, Mei Terumi quickly tried to distance herself from the boy in front of her, but it was too late.

"Sakura, trap!"

The Uchiha Kage, who had transformed back into his true form, used his body to wrap around the female ninja who was trying to escape.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, Sakura, who had been hiding in the bushes, immediately pulled up the iron wire buried in the grass.

zizi...

The rapidly shrinking thin wire instantly wrapped around Terumi Mei, who was trapped by the Uchiha Kage.

With a bang, the Uchiha Kage who was controlling Terumi Mei with his body also turned into a puff of white smoke.

The wire trap has been completely encircled, leaving no room for escape.

"You are so despicable!"

Looking at the detonating talismans hanging on the wire wrapped around her, Terumi Mei struggled and cursed angrily.

It turned out that Uchiha Kage had already used his shadow clone to notify Haruno Sakura outside when Mei Terumi sneaked into the house, and then they discussed together to set a trap for Mei Terumi.

"A ninja is someone who sees things first. You lose."

Looking at the female ninja whose body was made even more plump by the thin ropes, Uchiha Kage declared his victory.

"That's impossible to say!"

Mei Terumi snorted coldly. As the proud daughter of the Hidden Mist Village, she actually fell into someone else's trap one day.

And he was a boy who was much younger than her.

What a shame!
