Ten meters away from the center of the explosion, the lake surface had calmed down, the fire and smoke in the distance had gradually dissipated, and the sound of the wind had disappeared.

Little raindrops hit the lake, and ripples spread out in circles. It was as if nothing had happened.

"Wow..."

There was a slight sound of water, and a little head popped up on the lake far away from the battlefield.

Qianye took a greedy breath of air, then held her hands on the surface of the lake and slowly climbed up from the bottom of the water.

He glanced back, with a smile on his lips.

Fortunately, Lao Zi wanted to keep my three kunai just now. If it hadn't been for the explosion, I wouldn't have been able to hide it from others.

After smiling, Chiba couldn't help but sigh.

At that time, after Nagato rescued him from five lava balls, Chiba had already made plans. After healing the burns on his face, he took advantage of Yahiko and Lao Zi to focus on fighting each other.

Hidden shadow clone underwater.

It was originally meant to be an insurance policy. After all, Lao Zi's blood succession limit is melting release, and Yahiko and Nagato can use water release. Both melting release and water release have a wide range of ninjutsu. In order to prevent being caught by their ninjutsu when escaping,

When the spell affects the situation, a shadow clone is left underwater and moves with him. It can be replaced underwater at critical times.

When he discovered the detonating talisman behind the old purple kunai, Chiba decided to directly replace the shadow clone, escape from the water, and then use the shadow clone to confuse the enemy. In the process, there was the smoke cover of the detonating talisman explosion, which was amazing.

Unconsciously.

Chiba also resisted the explosion of three kunai. Although he healed himself while sneaking underwater, there were still many burnt black scars on his hands and feet at this moment, which were obviously caused by the explosion.

.

However, these are basically skin injuries. The serious injuries have been healed and do not affect Chiba's actions.

At this time, the life gate mode has been turned off. Although Chiba still has the physical strength to run away, he no longer has the minimum physical strength to activate the eight gate mode.

In terms of chakra, there is only one chakra left from the Substitute Technique. Moreover, it is impossible to refine chakra, and the physical strength can no longer support it.

"Just escape from here, and then find a relatively safe place to rest." Qianye looked at the gloomy sky and planned this.

But just when he took a cautious step and was about to run away, he was stunned for a moment, and his whole body froze. He stepped on one foot in the air but did not fall.

This is……

Chiba frowned. At this time, his mind was filled with the information from the shadow clone, and a very small amount of almost negligible chakra returned to his body.

But when all the information was returned, there was a look of surprise and astonishment on his face.

Xiaonan actually...

In Chiba's mind, the last scene he saw of the shadow clone trying his best to twist his silhouette remained.

In the direction where the pieces of paper were flying and gathering, the outline of Konan's body had been formed, standing between him and Lao Zi. Lao Zi raised his left hand to make a cracking motion, but a paper shuriken on his wrist penetrated the tailed beast's coat.

It penetrated deeply into the flesh and blood spattered.

Lao Zi's other hand turned into a lava hand and punched directly through Xiao Nan's half body. The paper outline of the half body had already begun to burn!

Without thinking too hard, Chiba could imagine the situation at that time.

Lao Zi teleported behind his shadow clone and struck down. Although his shadow clone warned Konan several times, Konan couldn't help but take action and knocked down Lao Zi's dagger with a paper shuriken.

However, Lao Zi should have been prepared for it. His other hand turned into a lava fist and punched his shadow clone.

Xiaonan seemed to be ready to deal with it, and immediately the paper turned into paper and flew away, standing between herself and Lao Zi, and even pushed her shadow clone.

In the end, he was punched through by Lao Zi.

No, it should be a paper shuriken thrown. Before the paper shuriken hit Lao Zi, she had already turned into paper and flew out. Otherwise...it would be unstoppable...

From the very beginning, I prepared a back-up plan if the paper shuriken failed, and that was to use my own body to block it!

At this moment, Qianye's mind couldn't help but think of the back figure with open hands and red hair flying.

Why?

Konan is not Kushina, there is no friendship between us, why?

Why save me?

To them, I am just a strange and unrelated Konoha ninja. There is no reason for them to save me?

Thinking of this, Qianye took a step forward and stepped on the water.

No, no matter what, I have escaped from the battle. I have also healed Xiao Nan, and even created a chance for them to kill Lao Zi.

It's just that they didn't grasp it.

It has nothing to do with me, and I didn't ask them to save me.

Thinking about it, Chiba turned around and unconsciously put his hand into the ninja bag.

Chiba...calm down!

calm!

Thinking about Kushina's fate, now is not the time to be willful! Now is not the time to interfere with other people's fates!

Moreover, the fate of Yahiko and Kushina had little to do with each other. When Obito did not join Akatsuki, the Nine-Tails Incident was triggered.

It has nothing to do with Akatsuki, Yahiko and the others!

Chiba's mind was racing, but he had already taken out his hand from his ninja tool bag and put a round object into his mouth.

This is unnecessary willfulness!

You only have one chance to change history, don't create unnecessary complications!

clam down!

Calm down!

If something happens here, the gains outweigh the losses! Yahiko and the others are just irrelevant people!

Chiba's eyes flashed sharply, and with a "click", he bit into pieces the round thing in his mouth.

hateful!

…

The white mist where the shadow clone exploded slowly dissipated.

"cough!"

A mouthful of blood coughed out from Xiao Nan's mouth, a half-length figure, and a wry smile escaped from the corner of his mouth.

So that's the case, no wonder you told me to leave him alone. This child has already replaced his shadow clone, and his true body must have escaped.

What an amazing kid.

"Crash!"

A wry smile overflowed, and when the thought turned around, Konan suddenly scattered and flew away, turning into two streams of paper, bypassing Lao Zi, whose arm turned into a lava arm in front of him, and gathered again beside the frightened and anxious Yahiko.

At this time, Lao Zi's eyes were slightly widened, and the scene of the flying paper was reflected in his eyes.

Shadow clone? When?

This kid...

However, astonished as he was, he quickly understood the current situation and began to form seals in his hands.

"laugh!"

Dozens of burning pieces of paper fell into the water in front of Lao Zi. After a puff of smoke rose, they turned into ashes and sank into the water.

At this moment, Lao Zi finished forming the seals, took a breath, puffed out his cheeks, held his breath, and suddenly turned around.

Molten escape, flowing rock!

Oops!

Almost the moment he turned around, Yahiko and Konan, who had already gathered into human form, both screamed in their hearts.

A picture flashed across their minds.

A large lava flow swept towards me like a huge wave, but I was too late to avoid it, and eventually turned into fly ash in the lava!

It’s over!

Eventually, this picture turned into despair.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"

And at this moment, a bunch of angry voices suddenly came to mind.

What!

Lao Zi, who puffed up his cheeks and was about to spit out the lava flow, looked to his right in disbelief.

A small fist had already hit his right cheek.

"Bang!"

The flesh squeaks.
Chapter completed!
