Chapter 138 After the End
"Sand-bound Coffin"
As soon as Gaara arrived at the battlefield, he found that the Oto-nin, who was supposed to be the enemy, was lying unconscious on the ground, and the friendly Konoha ninjas were fighting each other. So he controlled the sand and wrapped up Rock Lee, who looked the most abnormal.
“Don’t send (Sand Falls) to his grave!” Luo Yi jumped out quickly, fearing that he would use a smooth combo to kill him.
"Don't light a fire!" Kankuro and Temari immediately stood in front of Gaara, also afraid that he would do something crazy and hurt their brother, "We are here to support Konoha!"
Everyone: “…”
Deathly silence.
"Ahem... Anyway, thank you. The opponent has fallen. Could Gaara please restrict Xiao Li's movements so that I can use medical ninjutsu to help him sober up?" Fortunately, Luo Yi was thick-skinned enough and broke the deadlock with a dry cough.
"Got it." Gaara controlled the sand to make Xiao Li lie flat, and by the way, he was curious about why Temari and Kankuro reacted so strongly.
He only knew that he was attacked by Luo Yi's Fire Style Ninjutsu during the process of transforming into a tailed beast. He did not see how shocking the scene outside was, and could not understand the difference between fighting and cooking.
Luo Yi can indeed rely on Yang Dun to treat drunkenness by stimulating the liver to produce alcohol dehydrogenase and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase, thereby promoting alcohol metabolism.
He has a poor alcohol tolerance and poor drinking habits. He can cause damage after just two sips and even perform powerful drunken boxing. Is this considered acute alcohol poisoning? This is a question.
During the treatment, Luo Yi learned from Kankuro and Temari that the other members of Shikamaru's team had been picked up by the medical logistics who arrived, and the most seriously injured was Akamaru, who had injured the tendons in all four legs.
And it was Akamaru who had undergone Yangtun treatment.
"Well... from the difficulty point of view, it is undoubtedly A-rank, but judging from the battle we participated in, it is hard to say whether this mission can be rated as B-rank." Shikamaru felt that they were almost just rushing to get by, "Oh, by the way, the mission is not yet completed! Let's go catch up!"
...
Half an hour later.
Not sure if it was because of the unexpected Xiao Li that delayed them, but before they arrived at the final battlefield, it started to rain heavily.
The Nine-Tails' chakra, the chakra of "State 2", briefly appeared for a minute or two, and then everything returned to calm.
Naruto lay flat on the river bank, falling asleep in the rain.
"We didn't see Sasuke, we were late!" Luo Yi calmly explained the result.
"I made a wrong judgment. I should have trusted Luo Yi more and let Choji come to support Naruto first." Shikamaru twisted his fingers.
"Even if you said so, I wouldn't let you deal with that powerful guy who plays with bones." Shikamaru tried to take the blame awkwardly.
"It's still my fault. I came all the way here to make things worse." Xiao Li's tears flowed harder than the rain.
"Okay, don't be depressed. It's harmful to your recovery. Let's see the situation first." Luo Yi was actually quite grateful to him for delaying time.
If Shikamaru's team succeeds in their "mission to recover Sasuke", Sasuke's "mission to infiltrate the Hidden Sound Village" will be declared a failure.
Naruto didn't suffer any life-threatening injuries. Rather than being beaten by Sasuke, it was more likely that the Nine-Tails' Chakra was forced to cause more damage. Therefore, combined with the mental damage, this time he will probably need to recuperate for a month.
"Naruto, and you guys!" Kakashi and Puck also arrived, and the first thing they said was, "I'm late."
"Teacher Kakashi..." Everyone was in low spirits.
Parker noticed a Konoha forehead guard on the ground. The Konoha symbol had a crack from some unknown attack. He sniffed it and identified it. "This is Sasuke's."
"Naruto, he must have fought very hard." Kakashi picked up the forehead protector and put it in his pocket, "They... fought here."
"Valley of the End"
On both sides of the waterfall stand giant statues of Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha. At the feet of the statues are lakes and rivers that stretch all the way, as if they are quietly watching an endless war.
"It's raining too heavily. We can no longer track by smell. Besides, the border is ahead. Sasuke should have left the Land of Fire by now." Parker looked in the last direction before the smell dissipated and declared the mission a failure.
At this time, Luo Yi discovered a not-so-good thing, which was...
If he activated the Yang Release Chakra to strengthen his sense of smell, his nose would be even better than Puck's (the Ninja Dog) and he would be able to smell the scent of that cat.
You know, cats, unlike dogs, have almost no body odor.
Should I be happy?
In fact, they are not far away from Sasuke now, and they can catch up with him in a few minutes, which seems to be destined to miss each other.
"Forget it, let's go back. If we rashly step out of the border and a few more Sound Ninja show up, it will not just be a simple mission failure." Kakashi carried Naruto on his back and walked back.
Tsunade had an urgent S-rank mission waiting for him, and he had disobeyed the Hokage's instructions and ran out, which was strictly speaking a violation of discipline.
Compared to Luo Yi, for whom everything was according to the script, Shikamaru and the others did not feel any better.
Although there were no major casualties, the feeling of not contributing much throughout the entire process and the mission failing was simply a mental torture.
"Just like I said at the beginning, practice with me again when you go back, and try harder to complete the task next time. Can you do it?" Luo Yi said in a very straight-forward way, half teaching and half encouraging.
"…Um."
...
Although it is a bit biased, "The Quest for Sasuke" has come to an end, but the questions left behind are endless.
For example, one day in class...
"Teacher Luo! Please take us to practice!" Xiao Li dragged Ningci and Tenten to the Ninja School and tried to grab the teacher in front of the younger students who were several years younger than them.
"Uh... you can, but the problem is what about Teacher Kai?" Luo Yi felt that it would be detrimental to the ethics of a teacher to interfere in other people's affairs.
"Teacher Kai, he's exhausted, and he said something discouraging like 'My youth can't afford to be squandered.'" Tiantian, who spoke in a lolita voice, answered the question.
“Is that so…” Luo Yi couldn’t imagine that the enthusiastic teacher who would knock on the door with Grandma Li three years later would become weak now.
"Indeed, I also long to practice with you." Neji was frank and natural.
It’s just that the second young lady in the class’s gaze is a little eye-catching.
For example, one day after school...
"Ahaha, Luo Yi, Akamaru is always clamoring to come and see you, so while we're out, we'll stop by to see you." Akamaru stepped into the Hyuga family with a swagger, and boldly ran straight to the main courtyard and pounced on Luo Yi who was practicing.
"Uh...haha...it looks like you've recovered pretty well, good boy." Luo Yi squatted down and patted the dog's head, "Why is Shino here too? Sister Hinata hasn't gone home yet."
"No, we're not here to look for Hinata. I'm just explaining to Kiba what team spirit is." Shino seemed to be upset about not being included in the mission.
The little princess of the Hyuga family also looked sideways at the two men and one dog.
and also…
"No more!" Hua Huo's long black hair seemed to be turning into a living thing and tumbling, "Why are there always so many people looking for Luo Yi, whether at school or at home?
"Luo Yi, you're mine!" The little girl's voice broke through the sky. She put her arms around the boy's waist and hugged him tightly. Her little face was flushed, and she was so stubborn that she held back half a tear.
"Uh...yes, yes, so should I come back another day?" Naruto at the door was frightened by her.
Hinata, who was hiding behind the doorpost and peeking at her crush, was also quite frightened.
"Okay, Hanabi, Naruto's injury hasn't healed yet, don't scare him." Luo Yi stroked the little girl's head gently, "You came out to find me like this, it must be something important, right?"
Naruto is still in the hospital. He is wrapped up like a mummy, and his whole body exudes a bitter and cool smell of plaster.
"Yes! The lecherous sage went to Grandma Tsunade's place to do preparatory work, and asked me to come and tell you that "that matter" has made important progress, and you should go to the Hokage's office immediately." He couldn't explain the content clearly, and was not confident enough to let other people make the announcement.
"Got it, thank you, I'll go out now." Luo Yi responded, then looked down and met a pair of resentful big eyes.
He gave a helpless smile and then leaned close to the little girl's ear and said, "After we finish this work, we will go out and play for a few days during the autumn break."
After saying that, he gently bit the tip of her ear.
"Sealing Technique: Fireworks' Silent Half-Day Bite"
He was in a hurry to go out because the Impure World Reincarnation of the first and second generations had begun to take shape.
