Chapter 24 - ch24

"Nanaya, why are you here?"

Seeing Nanaya hold her, Uzuki Yugao was surprised.

She didn't expect Nanaya to suddenly appear and save her.

"I came because I was worried about you."

Hearing this sentence, Uzuki Yugao's face flushed.

In just a moment, she regained her composed expression.

She knew how dangerous the current situation was.

"Nanaya-kun, run away! They are all Anbu of Mist Shinobi, with the strength of Jōnin. You are no match for them at all."

This task has nothing to do with Nanaya, and Uzuki Yugao doesn't want him to be involved at all.

As a Konoha Anbu, she is also the leader of this mission.

Even in death, she can't take a step back.

"It's okay, I'll take care of everything."

With a simple sentence, Uzuki Yugao lost her composure.

"Um!"

At this time, she completely obeyed Nanaya's arrangement.

"Uchiha Nanaya, why are you here?"

The three from Moonlight Hayate's team also spotted Nanaya.

It was Uchiha Nanaya who rescued Yugao before Hayate could.

"Hayate, why are you here?"

Uzuki Yugao looked at the figures of the people with Hayate and was puzzled.

"Yugao, you'll be fine. We are reinforcements sent by Lord Hokage."

Hayate, who said these words, gave Nanaya a vicious look at the same time.

"Uchiha Nanaya, this is not a place where you can stay as a Special Genin. Let's get out of here."

Moonlight Hayate deliberately emphasized the word "Special."

"Reinforcements? Why didn't you take action at first, but waited until Yugao's team lost two companions before intervening?"

Uchiha Nanaya said coldly.

Moonlight Hayate's face twisted into a grimace.

"Could it be that he knows I've been here all along? It's impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"Nanaya, I don't know what you mean. We just arrived here."

The reason Nanaya didn't take action at first was because he wanted to see what Moonlight Hayate and the others intended to do.

Earlier, the Anbu from Mist Shinobi had fought fiercely against Yugao's two companions.

However, there was restraint in the Root member whose code name is Ding Shui.

And Ding Shui didn't suffer any injuries.

The battle between them was like tai chi, pushing back and forth.

When Yugao was injured, Moonlight Hayate appeared.

This guy clearly wanted to stage a drama of a hero saving the damsel and then winning her heart.

Moonlight Hayate felt guilty and asked Kirito beside him softly.

"Kirito, as a perception ninja, didn't you sense that guy's Chakra?"

"No, Hayate, that guy's Chakra appeared suddenly."

Sarutobi Kirito, belonging to the Sarutobi family, can perceive ninjutsu and is a reconnaissance ninja.

Anbu from Mist Shinobi couldn't sit still.

"You Konoha ninjas are really interesting, Hayate-kun. Thank you for telling them where they are, and the hero saving the damsel act is also gone. How about it? Do you want to consider joining us in Mist Shinobi?"

"You..."

Moonlight Hayate's face was extremely ugly.

Uzuki Yugao stared at him with murderous eyes.

"Yugao, you have to trust me and not be swayed by the Mist Shinobi ninjas."

"Hahaha..."

The six Anbu of Mist Shinobi laughed.

"A Special Genin, such a name! Konoha ninjas are so foolish, none of you will leave today."

The six Mist Shinobi ninjas rushed toward Nanaya at the same time.

Kunai, which had never tasted blood, was already hungry and thirsty.

As they closed in on Nanaya, the icy chill became more piercing.

It was very difficult to even breathe, like being submerged in a deep pool of cold water.

But Uzuki Yugao, who was standing beside Nanaya, only felt a faint coolness over her body.

The slight chill made her feel relaxed.

Suddenly, the wound on her back no longer hurt.

The coolness was warm again, as the cool blue Chakra flowed through the wound on her back.

The wound that had been cut by kunai was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The feeling of Mist Shinobi ninjas and Uzuki Yugao was simply a world of difference.

The Mist Shinobi ninja at the head felt like they were rushing toward the Grim Reaper.

Instinctively, he stopped and shouted loudly: "Get back quickly!"

But it was too late. The five Mist Shinobi had already found themselves immobile.

Their whole bodies had been covered with ice, leaving only their heads outside.

The Mist Shinobi, led by them, was also deeply affected.

"Sigh—"

Nanaya let out a breath of cold air and walked up to a Mist Shinobi.

"Say, how did you find out about their tracks?"

The Mist Shinobi ninja shook his head defiantly, with a spirit of defiance.

Nanaya liked this kind of person the most.

With a simple kick, the Mist Shinobi's feet were directly smashed.

Ice cubes were scattered all over the place, without a trace of blood.

"Ah—"

He fell to the ground, followed by a scream from a distance.

"Too noisy!"

Even the last head was frozen.

Snap!

Nanaya stepped on it with one foot, and the entire body of that Mist Shinobi turned into ice cubes and scattered on the ground.

No bones left.

Click, click, click...

Second, third, fourth, fifth.

Uchiha Nanaya just stepped on them.

All one heard was the sound of ice breaking, and the cries of death never appeared.

The Mist Shinobi leader's pupils widened, as if he saw a Grim Reaper walking toward him.

At this time, his face was ashen, having survived in the blood mist, and he had never seen such a terrifying person.

In the final analysis, it is the difference in strength.

"Don't, don't kill me, I'll tell you."

There was a trembling in the face of death in his voice.

"It was him, the ninja in Konoha who told us where he was, the guy named Moonlight Hayate—cough."

Mist Shinobi Ninja pointed directly at Moonlight Hayate.

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned into a piece of shattered ice.

Those confused eyes seemed to be saying: "Brother, I told you, and you still did it, are you serious?"

However, Nanaya said, "Did I ever say that I wouldn't kill you if you confessed? No!"

Moonlight Hayate's three-member team and the Root member Ding Shui were completely stunned by this scene.

Their feet seemed to be filled with lead, and they couldn't move an inch.

"You, you, how can you have such strength?"

"Are you surprised?"

Nanaya's body was already approaching Moonlight Hayate.

Those black pupils instantly turned into scarlet Sharingan.

"Sharingan, it turns out that you have activated Sharingan."

I don't understand why they were so surprised; isn't it normal for the Uchiha family to activate Sharingan? To deal with Mist Shinobi's interrogation, Nanaya wanted to use a different method.

Storm Squad and Ding Shui were frozen like Mist Shinobi just now.

The only difference is that they are currently only bound by their feet.

"No way, Hayate, did you really think my strength was only Genin, or rather a Special Genin?"

Ding Shui and the others looked at Nanaya's playful expression and found that they had entered the abyss of hell.

"If you don't believe it, then let you see my power, Ice Age!"
