Chapter 27 It doesn’t look like acting

Fifteen minutes later, Che put the scarecrow into his coat pocket and stood up and said, "Fifteen minutes are up. The client has recovered his strength. Let's go now."

Hong stood up immediately in cooperation, and Che glanced at Asma. Asma and Che looked at each other for a while, and finally put their hands on their legs and stood up from the ground.

Che nodded with satisfaction and said, "Very good, you can set off."

Several people took steps and walked into the forest.

As soon as they stepped into the forest, Che immediately signaled the two of them to slow down and said, "I sensed danger in the forest and immediately formed a formation to protect the client."

In an escort mission, the client's life is the most important.

Several people gathered together, Che, as the head of the character, was at the front, and the scarecrow, the client Ichiro Sakamoto, was behind Che.

Next to Ichiro Sakamoto were two other ninjas, Kurenai Yuhi and Asuma. The three of them surrounded Ichiro Sakamoto.

Ichiro Sakamoto followed the formation of three people in the middle and moved forward without revealing any flaws. This way, he could move forward quickly while ensuring safety.

At this moment, a kunai suddenly flew from the tree canopy in front, and its target happened to be the open space surrounded by three people.

Theoretically, that was where the client was standing. If the kunai actually stabbed the three of them in the middle, it meant that the client had been hit.

Since we don't know whether kunai is poisonous, if it is attacked, it may be fatal.

Shikaku could have jumped out and said that the escort failed this time because Kunai was highly poisonous, so the three of them did not dare to neglect it at all.

Asuma took out two strange weapons that looked like finger tigers. These were gifts Asuma received when he officially became a ninja. They were short knives made by the Third Hokage using chakra metal and hard alloy.

Chakra metal is very expensive, and the Third Hokage's financial resources can only mix a small amount of chakra metal into it, but this is enough. This weapon can absorb the chakra of the wielder and show the characteristics of the chakra attribute. Very useful in ninja combat.

Asuma rushed forward, punched out, and deflected the kunai's clang, then quickly rushed into the forest, heading towards the place where the kunai was fired.

Asuma is strong enough to be ranked among the top three in her class.

He was very fast and had outstanding strength. He jumped up and instantly arrived at the tree crown where the kunai had just been fired.

He poured chakra into the short knife and punched out. The wind of the fist, accompanied by the cold light of the chakra knife, lifted up the covered tree crown in one fell swoop.

In an instant, the leaves were dancing wildly and falling all over the ground, but Nara Shikaku was not seen, only a simple launching device was exposed.

Asma was a little surprised, but still punched the launching device, and finally jumped out and said to Che, "The teacher is not up there."

Che already knew the result and said: "It doesn't matter, continue to be on guard and restore the formation."

Asuma nodded and returned to his original position.

This forest is only a little over 200 meters away. It is easy to cross these 200 meters, even with a tow bottle.

But the problem is that we already know that a trap like this was laid out by Nara Shikaku in this forest.

Moreover, Nara Shikaku himself didn't know when he would appear, so the three of them walked more steadily, almost at the pace of an ordinary person's walk.

The three of them walked forward step by step, very vigilant.

Sure enough, they encountered several more traps like this on the road, and the three of them resolved them one by one.

The little tricks along the way made Asma relax her vigilance.

The three of them have already walked halfway through the journey and will probably leave soon.

But just as Asuma was thinking this, Shikaku caught him off guard.

This time, he only saw a kunai flying towards him. Asuma rushed forward without thinking, preparing to fight it away with his chakra knife.

But he didn't expect that this time the kunai had a detonating talisman behind it, and it had already ignited.

Asuma was halfway through the rush before he saw the detonating talisman behind him, but it was too difficult to change his movements now.

As Asuma rushed towards the kunai, the kunai also quickly came towards Asuma.

When two people are running in both directions, they come into contact in an instant.

This kind of time is simply not enough time to change actions.

Asuma could only prepare to knock the kunai away with one punch, and hit the kunai as far away as possible before exploding.

But the risk is very high, because the detonating charm may have exploded upon contact.

But there is nothing that can be done about it.

At this moment, a kunai shot past Asuma and hit the detonating talisman kunai in front of him.

The two kunai collided, changing their trajectory, causing the detonating talisman kunai to fly sideways and get stuck in a tree next to Asuma.

With a bang, the big tree was blown apart by the detonating talisman. The wood chips and dust released by the explosion along with the shock wave knocked Asuma next to him to the ground, making him very embarrassed.

It was Che who threw this kunai and saved Asuma's life.

He had long noticed the detonating talisman kunai with his six eyes, and sighed in his heart: "Nara Shikaku is so courageous, isn't he afraid of blowing up the Hokage's son to death? But he may have observed what I just used The action of kunai knocking away the hidden weapon mechanism, thinking that I can save Asuma, but this is enough to show his courage."

Nara Shikaku walked out of the shadows of the jungle and said to everyone: "Hand over the client and you will be spared."

Che replied: "Absolutely impossible. Not betraying the client is the bottom line for us Konoha ninjas."

Nara Shikaku showed a ferocious expression in a very amused manner, even the scars on his face twitched twice, and said viciously: "Then don't blame me for being rude."

Shikaku raised his hand and threw many shurikens, which unexpectedly covered Asuma, Che, Kurenai and the client in four directions at the same time.

Asuma rolled on the ground, barely dodging the blow.

Che alone blocked the shurikens flying towards Hong and the client in front of him, and at the same time said to Hong: "Hong, take care of yourself and the client."

Che then took out two shurikens from his ninja tool bag and threw them at Nara Shikaku.

Shikaku dodged aside, but Che tied a translucent steel wire-like thread to the shuriken, and controlled the shuriken to chase Shikaku.

Seeing that it was difficult to dodge, Shikaku could only take out his kunai and knock down the two shurikens.

"Do shuriken! Are you from Uchiha?" Shikaku exclaimed.

Che responded: "Knowing that I am an Uchiha, do you still dare to take action?"

Shikaku laughed and said, "Uchiha brats are worth a lot of money at the money exchange!"

Regarding this, Che's comment was, "It doesn't look like the acting. I suggest a strict investigation."
