Witty Naruto Life

Chapter 42 The time traveler strikes again (Happy New Year~)

Sakura felt a chill running from her heels to her forehead.

She put down the detonating tag almost instinctively, and quickly formed seals with both hands, "Ninja Technique: Mist Hidden!"

It was almost dawn, and Sakura's technique echoed with the morning dew around them, suddenly making the surrounding fog thicker and visibility extremely low.

Sakura bit her lip hard with her teeth, and soon a trickle of blood oozed from the corner of her mouth. The pain made her rationality return, her fear subsided, and her ability to move gradually recovered.

Should I run now? This was the thought that subconsciously occurred to Sakura.

No, that's not right.

Most enemies will not "kindly" remind them when they find their prey, but will directly look for a suitable opportunity to kill them with one blow.

Could it be that taking direct action would make him hesitate, while inducing him to escape would make it easier for him to take action?

Sakura immediately thought of the trap she had set.

Compared to the original novel, the traps set by the time traveler Sakura are even more lethal and sophisticated. For example, they are highly concealed and almost impossible to detect; the props used are all more lethal weapons, etc.

No, that's not right either.

Traps only serve a supporting purpose at best and are unlikely to pose an effective threat to powerful enemies, but...

Sakura's eyes widened slightly, and she suddenly realized that it was Naruto!
After escaping, Naruto needs to find them again, and the enemy has clearly handed Naruto a small note, indicating that he has discovered his "secret".

As a Jinchūriki, the threat posed by the time traveler Naruto is obviously far greater than that of the trap, so what the enemy really fears is Naruto.

Thinking of this, Sakura retreated to Sasuke's side again. She wanted to fight a defensive battle before Naruto returned, which would not take too long.

She stared at Sasuke, whose body was now covered in faint black smoke.

"He'll be waking up soon," Sakura whispered to herself, her eyes beginning to roam around.

In a hidden bush near the tree hole.

"We've found them...According to Lord Orochimaru's instructions, we'll take action at dawn. Our target is Uchiha Sasuke."

Toss stood in the middle, with his sleeves hanging down on both sides. Jin and Sack beside him looked at Sakura with amusement on their faces.

"Can the other one be killed? I think her Mist Hidden Technique is quite troublesome." Sack stared at Sakura, with a smile on his face.

Toss sneered: "Is that even a question?"

Time soon came to early morning.

In order to maintain a healthy chakra level, Sakura allowed the mist to dissipate slowly, with fatigue hard to conceal in her eyes.

"He hasn't come back yet... Could it be that he really found Orochimaru?" Sakura murmured in her heart, sorting her ninja tools with her hands, her eyes looking straight ahead: "If nothing unexpected happens, the encirclement and suppression of Sasuke should be about to begin."

Suddenly, a small furry figure flashed by. Sakura looked up and calmly threw a kunai to block its way. It was a squirrel, but it was frightened and ran in the opposite direction in an instant.

Xiaoying stood up, took two steps forward, and said coldly, "Let's stop testing here."

The Otoninus in the bushes all blinked their eyes when they heard this.

"She found out?" Sack's eyes showed surprise, but then he saw the pink-haired girl in front of him suddenly pull the thin rope in her hand.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" Instantly, kunai with explosive tags burning on them shot forward like a volley of arrows. The three people were startled and scattered to both sides. The moment the kunai approached the bushes, the explosion swept around them. "Bang!!!"

Thick smoke billowed everywhere, accompanied by a tooth-aching sonic boom. A large open space suddenly opened up, and the three of them stood there. Toss put his hand back into his sleeve and looked at the beautiful girl in front of him with a strange smile.

"Wake up Uchiha Sasuke, we want to fight him."

"Sasuke?" There was no fear on Sakura's face, only a hint of sarcasm in her smile, as if she had surrounded the three people in front of her.

Immediately, she shouted sternly, "You'd better think about how to defeat me first. How dare the three dogs around Orochimaru bark in front of me!"

"Boom!" A violent energy instantly surged around her, accompanied by her flying pink hair, and the whole person instantly gave people the feeling of a female general returning victoriously.

Sakura's breath made Toss realize that the tired look on her face while she was guarding Sasuke just now was completely pretended, and her purpose was to lure people into taking the bait. Thinking of this, his expression revealed a hint of seriousness.

"In that case..." Toss murmured quietly, and suddenly his body jumped up, and pounced towards Sakura like a nimble beast, with his right hand tucked behind his back and his left hand slightly pulled up the right sleeve.

It must be said that Sakura's evaluation of them as "Orochimaru's dogs" deeply hurt Toth.

Sakura's silhouette continued to grow larger in his eyes, but strangely, the girl in front of him didn't seem to respond at all, just staring at him with a sneer on her face.

Is it a trap? Toss looked around subconsciously, and just as he was distracted, a pale green figure flashed beside him!
"Konoha Whirlwind!"

With a powerful whip kick, Toss was thrown to the side. His only exposed eye slowly opened wide, and he looked at Xiao Li in disbelief as he prepared to attack.

"You, who are you?" Toss reacted, his eyes slightly gloomy.

"The beautiful blue beast of Konoha, Lee Rock." Little Lee had one hand behind his back and the other hand facing forward, his eyes sparkling, and his watermelon-shaped head swaying in the wind made him look even cleaner and more dashing.

"Thank you, Li." Sakura walked up to him and patted his shoulder, which made Li blush immediately. He stammered, "Xiao, Xiaoying, this is what I should do. I said I would protect you..."

"Well, be careful not to get ambushed."

Sakura hadn't forgotten that the time traveler had discovered their hiding place. She had been observing her surroundings until just now, but unfortunately, nothing had changed.

She looked past Toss, whose eyes already revealed murderous intent, and cast her gaze on Sack behind her.

"If I remember correctly, Xiao Li was ruined by Sack after releasing the Lotus Flower, so I only need to entangle Sack during this period to send Tos away, forming a two-on-two situation." Sakura muttered to herself, hiding her body behind Xiao Li and began to make seals with her hands.

At the same time, Toss watched Xiao Li untying the bandages on his hands, and a sense of foreboding suddenly rose in his heart. He rushed towards Xiao Li with lightning speed.

And Xiao Li moved his position in the blink of an eye, lowered his center of gravity, and with a kick, he took Toss directly into the sky!

Sakura seized the opportunity and charged towards the two as Toss flew into the sky, sending her chakra-wrapped fists to the ground.

She wants to create a crack in the ground and divide the battlefield!

But at this moment, a kunai with a white paper attached flew towards Sakura from an unknown direction. She dodged it and the kunai pierced the ground, revealing the white paper in front of her. There were two small words written on the paper:

【whee】

Sakura was stunned for a moment, then turned sharply in that direction, but didn't see anyone.

She was horrified and had a bad idea.
