Konoha Thief

Chapter 114 Appearance
A B-level mission means that among the enemies encountered, there will be ninjas.

This is one of the common sense that ninja must have.

It's just that Saito Kyoko and Kurama Nozomi obviously didn't expect that this escort mission had just begun, and they encountered ninja enemies.

"What is the general strength of the enemy?" Kurama Nozomi asked calmly after being surprised.

This team has been tempered by the flames of war, and they are not in a panic when dealing with the current situation.

"The most powerful one probably has Chunin strength. The total number is twelve, which should be three teams." Keita Hyuga patrolled around, gave a brief answer, and immediately said: "Just to be on the safe side, Kyoko, you return to the team immediately, and this Tell Xingbo teacher and Aoki team about it."

"What about you and Xi?" Saito Kyoko frowned slightly, and said nervously, "Aren't you going to take risks?"

"Of course not." Hyuga Keita shook his head, and said solemnly: "Matsuzaki asked me the whereabouts of those people who were ambushing in the forest at the beginning, and now I think about it, I can't help but feel a little worried, so I plan to keep rolling my eyes and go follow it with Xi."

"It's been so long, isn't it too late?" Kurama Nozomi said hesitantly.

"It's indeed a bit late, but it's hard to feel at ease if you don't check it out." Hinata Keita had a serious expression and insisted.

"Then, okay." Saito Kyoko nodded helplessly with her mouth pursed.

The three of them dispersed immediately and ran quickly in two directions.

At the same time, the escort team finally embarked on the path that Musashi had said.

The road is not very smooth, but compared with the unpredictable depth of the edge of Xiazhi Forest, it is also comfortable to walk.

At least the samurai breathed a sigh of relief.

"Haven't you come back yet?" Moonlight Xingbo murmured, with a worried look on his face.

"Maybe we didn't find anything wrong, but we were overthinking." Aoki Gennosuke guessed.

"I hope so." Yueguang Xingbo's expression relaxed slightly.

"He's back." At this moment, Xia Shu caught sight of a figure rushing out of the forest beside him, and to his surprise, there was only one person.

His heart shuddered, his left fingertips buckled inward, and the black rope was ready to go.

"Don't be nervous, Matsuzaki." Saito Kyoko rushed over, greeted and walked quickly towards Yueguang Yukihiro.

Xia Shu was startled for a moment, and immediately followed.

"Where's Kaita and Xi?" Seeing Kyoko Saito return alone, Yueguang Yukihiro asked.

He took a quick glance and saw that Kyoko Saito was dressed as before, but her expression was a little tense, as if she had been through a battle, and she let go of the heart she had just mentioned.

"Kita found the enemy." Saito Kyoko lowered his voice, glanced around guardedly, and then continued: "At this moment, he is lurking on the north side. Taihe Xi...he said that he was worried about the whereabouts of the enemy who set up an ambush before, so he took Xi to track it down."

"In this way..." Yueguang Xingbo heard the words, lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, "Then get ready."

As he spoke, he glanced at Gennosuke Aoki, who nodded slightly, and then went to Gusuke's side to whisper a few words.

Seeing that Yueguang Xingbo didn't stop the team, Xia Shu also prepared secretly. In fact, he was always cautious and could enter the fighting state at any time, so the so-called "preparation" was to give Kuno Kuroyu a warning.

"Hei Yu, be on guard...it's on guard! It's not for you to stare and frown!" Xia Shu rolled his eyes before he finished speaking.

"Then what about this?" Kuno Heiyu rubbed his face to adjust, and then asked belatedly: "By the way, what are you guarding against?"

"I don't even know what to be on guard and still have a serious face." Xia Shu stroked his forehead speechlessly, and said concisely: "Just follow me later."

"It's fine to say no earlier." Kuno Heiyu spread his hands, but instead buried his grievances.

At this moment, only two crisp clicks were heard, before and after the long escort team, two thick old trees suddenly fell down from the side of the road with a difficult sound.

The ancient tree fell heavily to the ground, stirring up dust all over the sky, blocking the road, followed by the sound of piercing through the air, and the ninja lurking by the road suddenly attacked, Kunai and Shuriken suddenly came like a sudden rain!

"Enemy attack! Gentlemen! Dodge quickly!!" A cry came from among the warriors.

Amidst this exclamation, several figures rushed out from the side of the road, and their targets seemed to be targeting the luxurious red silk carriage where the princess was staying!
"Hurry up and protect the princess!" Musashi pushed away the young samurai Shikishima who was blocking the way, quickly drew out the samurai sword with the water-swallowing moiré pattern, swept away the hidden weapon that was coming, and swung the sword at a figure running towards the carriage.

Tsukihiro Yukihiro and Aoki Gennosuke immediately met the enemy, but while responding to the enemy, they were also guarding against the situation in the escort team.

After all, there is another hidden danger that may exist, and the situation is still unknown at this time, so we must pay attention to it.

Even if manpower is also arranged to deal with unexpected situations, in this kind of matter, even multiple insurances are not too much.

However, unlike Yukihiro Tsukihiro, Gennosuke Aoki has full confidence in Kosuke Maruhoshi.

The situation at this moment, as Saito Kyoko said, the twelve ninjas who were in ambush appeared on the first day of the first day, and launched a fierce and aggressive attack on the escort team.

After a wave of hidden weapon lasing, the samurai lost three people, and the other two unlucky guys were not killed on the spot, but they could only linger on. It seemed that they couldn't even wait for the end-of-life care.

The rest of the warriors were also slightly injured, but they still had combat strength. On the contrary, the coachman and servants were not within the scope of the target, so they evaded hastily, and none of them were injured.

The enemies who came with the hidden weapons launched attacks in two consecutive waves. The first wave was naturally intercepted by Yukihiro Tsukihiro and Gennosuke Aoki, but in this way, the two of them were also temporarily held back.

Seeing this, the second wave of enemies immediately dispersed again, turning into two teams.

The one rushing towards the carriage was one of them, and it was Musashi who met him.

The other team resisted Xiang Xiashu, Saito Kyoko and Kuno Kuroyu.

The life-and-death fight was suddenly triggered at this moment!
"Saito, go support Kosuke-senpai!" Xia Shu threw three kunai with one hand, and released an illusion with his hand.

The Art of Xia Follower!
In the vision of the attacking ninja, the enemies in front of him appeared one after another, strange and even abrupt.

This is undoubtedly an illusion.

A short and thin ninja immediately threw a large hidden weapon as a cover, and the other three tacitly deciphered the illusion, and then quickly changed positions to cover the short and thin ninja.

However, Xia Shu's goal had been achieved at this time, and Kyoko Saito bypassed the enemy and was running towards the carriage at this moment.

The short and skinny ninja cracked the illusion, and was about to stop it immediately, but at this moment, a samurai rushed to him with his sword drawn, roared angrily, and slashed at him.
