Naruto: Konoha’s Kanpu - Chapter 220

Chapter 220: Who To Start With

Into the night.

Outside a huge dense forest in the south of the Land of Fire, the two Kirigakure’s Jōnin who were chasing down Shikuro stood outside with gloomy expressions, hesitating and not daring to enter the forest.

Chasing from the ocean to the land, from the coast to the inland, the two Kirigakure’s Jōnin are sticking to Shikuro’s ass like mad dogs!

After two days and two nights of hunting, whether it is Shikuro or the Kirigakure’s Jōnin, they are all very tired. It all depends on who can hold on to the end!

But at this moment, the hunt seems to have come to an end.

If the sea is the main battlefield of Kirigakure’s Shinobi, then the main battlefield of the Aburame Clan is the jungle!

Aburame Clan is a clan that controls insects. The Kikaichū they control are black, small, ugly, concealed and able to suck Chakra. If they are in the sea or other open places, they can be found at a glance, which is nothing to be afraid of. But in the middle of the night, in this huge jungle, it is extremely difficult to find the Kikaichū hiding behind a leaf. The two Kirigakure’s Jōnin is sure that Shikuro must have laid many traps in the jungle!

And what about them?

After leaving the sea, their Water Release’s power has dropped, and then they enter the opponent’s home court. With this addition and subtraction, it is almost impossible for them to catch up with Shikuro!

Moreover, this is the territory of the Land of Fire, and Konoha’s reinforcement Shinobi may appear at any time. Perhaps, a large number of Konoha’s Shinobi is already lurking in the jungle!

“What should we do?”

“As of now… we can only end it here!”

“But if the information leaks…”

“It doesn’t matter, we…maybe we can put the charge of kidnapping and extortion on the head of this Aburame’s Shinobi!”

Their initial plan was to kill all everyone who knows about this matter, including Michiru, after the kidnapping and extortion was completed. If this happens then, the Land of the Moon’s King wouldn’t be able to find the culprit, so naturally he won’t be able to do anything!

And now, as long as they put the accusation of kidnapping and extortion on Shikuro’s head, everything will be even more perfect!

When the time comes, the evil deeds of Konoha’s Aburame Jōnin committing crime will circulate throughout the entire Shinobi World. He kidnapped the mission’s client to extort huge wealth, and finally murdered the client after obtaining the money. Not only can the hatred of the Land of the Moon’s King be transferred to Konoha, it can also affect the reputation of the entire Konoha Villages!

If even the client of their own mission can be kidnapped and killed for ransom, who else in the Shinobi World would dare to entrust Konoha’s Shinobi?

It would be killing two birds with one stone!

They are really proud of their wisdom!

The two Kirigakure’s Jōnin discussed softly, and then left with a sneer.

After they left, a few Kikaichū flew a few times outside the jungle and flew towards the depths of the jungle after confirming safety.

“We’re safe now.”

Upon receiving the news from the Kikaichū, Shikuro breathed a sigh of relief. Although he is a Jōnin, he ran for two days and nights with Yui, and he was attacked by the two Kirigakure’s Jōnin in the air countless times. Whether it is Chakra or stamina, Shikuro can’t bear anymore, but a man can only hold on!

“Uncle, what about Kanpū and Prince Michiru?” Although Yui has only been holding on Shikuro’s thigh for the past two days, the tense atmosphere and pressure also kept her from resting for two days and two nights. Without rest, two clear dark circles appeared on her white face at this moment.

Shikuro showed a brooding look. Michiru is just a client. If he can save him, he will save him. If he can’t save him, he can only say sorry.

But Kanpū is different. He is not only Shikuro’s student, but also the son of Gekkō Clan’s Clan Head.

Gekkō Clan is a staunch supporter of the Hokage, and the Clan Head, Gekkō Hoshino even suffered a serious injury on battlefield and could no longer be a Shinobi. He is only half a step away from being a martyr. His brave and fierce behavior has gained a huge reputation among the civilians, so he definitely can’t give up on Kanpū! (A/N: The civilians don’t know that it was caused by revenge)

But if he went deeper into the sea to rescue Kanpū based on his current state, he would undoubtedly be giving away his head to the enemy.

Therefore, he can only call for reinforcements!

“Yui, I want you to immediately rush back to Konoha, report this matter, and ask for reinforcements!” Shikuro said solemnly.

Yui nodded, but soon showed a look of unease: “But will Hokage-sama meet me?”

In case she didn’t meet him, it will be bad!

“You don’t have to meet Hokage-sama, it’s fine to go find your uncle, Shibi!” Shikuro said.

Yui nodded solemnly: “I understand, I will go back to the village immediately!”

After saying that, Yui turned and rushed towards Konoha.

Shikuro, on the other hand, rested on the spot. He intends to take a nap for a while before setting off. The goal is not to save people, but to stop the two Kirigakure’s Jōnin!

‘As for whether Kanpū can survive in the hands of the seven Kirigakure’s Shinobi… Haah!’

…

The Crescent Moon Island under the night.

Two Kirigakure’s Shinobi are watching the night.

Aoi was resting in the tent, breathing softly, and anyone who listened to it would think that he had fallen asleep.

But he is actually awake right now, and his mind was quickly thinking about the current situation

Although he succeeded in infiltrating Kirigakure’s Shinobi as Aoi, he feels like a husky mixed in with wolves, and he can’t hold it anymore.

So, his first thought was to run away!

Now that his stamina, energy, and Chakra have recovered, he just needs to find a chance to sneak away… ‘No, there is Sensor Shinobi on the other side. If I don’t kill that Sensor Shinobi, how can I run away?’

But Kanpū doesn’t even know the names of these Kirigakure’s Shinobi, so how would he know who is the Sensor Shinobi?

‘Since it is not clear, then…’

A crazy idea in Kanpū’s mind is beginning to stir!

Among the eight people who went to the island today, excluding him and Michiru, and minus the two Kirigakure’s Shinobis who went to the Land of the Moon to send the kidnapping token, there are four Kirigakure’s Shinobi here. Two are sleeping in the tent next to him, and two are outside, watching the night!

In the past two days, the Kirigakure’s Shinobi hasn’t rested much, so Kanpū has the reason to believe that the two Kirigakure’s Shinobi sleeping in the tent next to him are sleeping very soundly. If he attacked them…

‘Going for a gamble, turning a bicycle into a motorcycle?’

Kanpū’s mouth was dry, and after a while passed, he suppressed this terrifying idea.

The other side is Chunin after all. In case he makes a mistake, his sneak attack on this side will fail, and he will be murdered by these four Kirigakure’s Shinobi.

Furthermore, even if he successfully assassinated the two Kirigakure’s Shinobi, what about the two Kirigakure’s Shinobi who were watching the night outside?

‘One-against-two fight?’

Although Kanpū is not a weakling anymore, it is still impossible for him to kill two Kirigakure’s Chunin who are prepared!

And once they escape… wouldn’t he die?

‘Calm down! I need to calm down!’

‘It must be the plot that is interfering with me, it is degrading my intelligence. I can’t be fooled, I have to keep calm!’

Kanpū took a deep breath, and soon, he had an idea again: ‘Since I can’t finish them all in one go, I can just bring these Kirigakure’s Shinobi one by one to a remote place and kill them as Aoi!’

‘Then, who to start with?’

window.yaContextCb.push(()=>{Ya.adfoxCode.createAdaptive({ownerId:260971,containerId:’adfox_163284795066391493′,params:{p1:’cquve’,p2:’gxmp’}},[‘desktop’],{tabletWidth:830,phoneWidth:480,isAutoReloads:false})})

Kanpū pondered for a while, and a smile slowly emerged from the corner of his mouth.

The night is getting deeper and deeper.

At twelve o’clock in the middle of the night, the Kirigakure’s Shinobi, who were watching the night outside, have changed shift, and the two Kirigakure’s Shinobi who slept before began to watch the night.

At this time, Kanpū opened his eyes and walked out calmly.
