Upstream.
Ohashi has taken Ueki, Ichiro Miyamoto, Tanaka Nakano to the top, and soon arrived at the 'source' of the flood.
"This is…"
Ohashi's complexion sank.
What appeared in front of them was a "dam" made of Earth Release Ninjutsu. It was very rough and didn't have the slightest aesthetic feeling. A large hole was formed under the dam. and the water that had accumulated for an unknown amount of time was continuously flowing from the hole of the dam, pouring downwards, and forming into a flood.
"Sure enough, it was man-made."
Ohashi said for a long time, "Be careful!"
After that, Ohashi took the members of Team 1 to search around the dam, and soon found the traces left by the Shinobi, but the other party seems to have noticed something in advance and left first!
...
At the same time.
Downstream, the fifty-meter-square insect cloud has dissipated, leaving only a one-meter-high insect's corpses, enclosing the half-kneeling Yuki Kōri in the middle like an altar.
"Shikuro-sensei, did you already arrive long ago?" Kanpū stood beside the 'altar' and said expressionlessly.
"Cough, no, I just arrived."
Shikuro walked out of the dense forest, with a high-collar windbreaker, big sunglasses and a forehead protector, and Kanpū couldn't tell what his expression was at the moment.
'He must have seen my Transparent Release.'
Kanpū was a little flustered, but after another thought, he recalled that Hayate has also awakened anyway, so it doesn't matter if he also awakened at this moment, but in the future, he can't just use other Kekkei Genkai in front of "people".
Shikuro came to the 'altar', looked at the corpse of insects more than one meter high, and sighed indistinctly.
At the moment when he sighed, Yuki Kōri…grabbed an ice edge that had not melted on the ground with his backhand and stabbed it into his own heart… he committed suicide.
Shikuro's eyes under the big black sunglasses were slightly narrowed, as if she did not expect Yuki Kōri to have such resoluteness!
Yuki Kōri lay in the middle of the corpse, his blood slowly overflowed from his wound, and his consciousness gradually became blank, but his eyes were full of complex emotions, including anger, unwillingness, hatred, and some regret.
He was betrayed by his companions!
But who can be blamed?
Yuki Kōri actually knew for a long time that even his two companions were respectful to him on the surface, they were secretly envious, jealous, and hated his Kekkei Genkai!
This is not an exception. As in Kirigakure, the vast majority of civilian Shinobi all have this kind of hatred from the poor to the rich towards Kekkei Genkai's Shinobi!
'I was so naive to believe those two bastards so much!'
However, compared to his own hatred and regret, the most important thing he has to do is to never let his clan's Kekkei Genkai fall into Konoha's hands!
'I don't want to die as Konoha's seed!'
The complex emotions in Yuki Kōri's eyes slowly disappeared, leaving only a relaxed expression of relief in the end.
At the last moment when his consciousness dissipated, Kanpū flicked across his top of the head lightly…
Bang!
"Uh, gomenasai!" (T/N: It is written in raw, which means sorry.)
Yuki Kōri, died!
"You did it on purpose, right?" Shikuro didn't know whether to cry or laugh when he saw this.
Kanpū walked out carrying Yuki Kōri's body, and said calmly: "I didn't learn it from Shikuro-sensei yet."
Shikuro was not angry, and asked: "The one you used just now was not Invisibility Technique, otherwise it's impossible to hide from this guy, could it be the Kekkei Genkai your little brother awakened?"
"Who knows, maybe I am very talented in stealth?" Kanpū saw that Shikuro was not sure if it was Transparent Release, and immediately replied ambiguously, and then changed the subject, "Shikuro-sensei, what about this guy?"
"Although he is already dead, he is still the Yuki Clan's Shinobi after all. We should take him back to Anbu, and maybe we can get some information from him."
After saying that, Shikuro took out a sealing scroll and prepared to seal Yuki Kōri's body in it.
When Kanpū saw this, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him: "Wait! Shikuro-sensei, death is a big deal, let me sort out his remains first!"
After saying that, Kanpū put Yuki Kōri down and tidy up his messy clothes while the green light in his mind flickered.
'Collect!'
The green light cluster surged quickly, and soon a light blue dot spewed out.
Kanpū was a little disappointed, but still wrapped it with his consciousness.
'Suiton: Kirigakure no Jutsu…' (Water Release: Hiding in Mist Technique)
Poor review, this thing feels a bit useless.
Kanpū breathes deeply.
Because he has already used a Collection Technique once in the mission center, plus the one just now, Kanpū only has one last chance for today!
'Coll…'
"Wait, I'm going to wash my hands first!"
Kanpū said solemnly, and then rushed to the flood with Body Flicker Technique.
'This water… is too dirty!'
But he couldn't care about it. Kanpū frowned, picked up a handful of muddy feces and washed his hands, then ran back to continue his great collection business.
Wiping the yellow water stains on his hands on Yuki Kōri's clothes, Kanpū looked solemn, and silently murmured, "I am Luck Emperor" three times.
'Collection Technique!'
Kanpū's eyes glared in anger, and the green light cluster in his mind quickly surged, and soon, a pale red stardust spewed out from the green light cluster.
In an instant, Kanpū's heartbeat was beating like a drum, his breathing was erratic, and his shoulders were trembling faintly.
'Success!!'
"Kanpū, are you alright?"
Shikuro thought that Kanpū was crying!
Kanpū stood up, suppressed the restlessness in his heart, sniffed, and said: "Shikuro-sensei, I am fine, I'll leave it to you."
Shikuro looked down at Yuki Kōri, and the corners of his mouth twitched: 'What do you mean sort out his remain?! Isn't he still the same as before? No, his clothes seem to be dirtier!'
Shikuro shook her head, and then directly sealed Yuki Kōri's into the scroll.
At the same time, Shisui and Yui who went upstream for help also saw Shikuro's insects and ran over here.
"Kanpū, are you okay?" Shisui rushed over and looked at Kanpū nervously.
"I'm fine, I'm fine."
After Kanpū responded to Shisui with a smile, he wrapped his consciousness around the light red stardust that had just been born.
Ice Release 1/3 (Kekkei Genkai, incomplete)
Kanpū is satisfied when he saw this.
'Although it's a bit regrettable that it is incomplete, but when I collected Transparent Release back then, it was also incomplete. At worst, I can just try to find other Yuki Clan's members in the future.'
It didn't take long for Ohashi to lead Team 1 to join Kanpū and the others.
After that, Ohashi took Shikuro to the small forest to exchange information. Kanpū, Yui, Ueki and Tanaka Nakano's group of four were responsible for bringing the villagers together in one place. As for Shisui and Miyamoto Ichiro, they took out the Shinobi's mission log and began to write the diary seriously.
Shisui wrote about the three-person team's battle against Yuki Clan's Shinobi. The beginning was fine, but in the middle, he and Yui strategically retreated to ask for help, and didn't know what happened afterwards, so Shisui ran over with the Shinobi's mission log and asked Kanpū about the details of his battle with Yuki Kōri.
Kanpū felt that he needed a hundred lies to make up for a panic, so he kept it up fiercely and praised his bravery and determination.
Shisui didn't know if he should write it or not, because according to what Kanpū said, it would take at least half an hour of fighting to have so many details.
But Shisui and Yui only left for four or five minutes!
Shisui looked at Kanpū resentfully: "Kanpū, why don't you write it yourself?"
Kanpū has no choice but to tell the truth: "Well, after you left, I used a shadow clone, and dragged him back and forth, and it didn't take long for Shikuro-sensei to show up and take care of him."
Shisui nodded in satisfaction when he heard this.
