Chapter 138: Encountering a Rebel Ninja on the Road
"Well, goodbye then!"
Taking the parting gift from Bang Rijian, Liu Yu bowed slightly to express his gratitude and replied softly.
"Goodbye!"
Bang Rijian also replied softly.
"Swoosh-----"
As soon as Bang Rijian finished speaking, Liu Yu's figure disappeared quickly.
"Boss, do you really think it's necessary to make friends with this little girl?"
As soon as Liu Yu left, an assistant behind Bang Rijian couldn't help but ask. He has been in charge of the headquarters of the Red Country, so he doesn't know much about Liu Yu's deeds along the way. He thinks Liu Yu is just a little girl and is not worthy of this heavy gift.
"She is the youngest jonin in Konoha. I believe her future achievements will not be lower than the so-called 'legendary three ninjas'."
In response to the assistant's doubts, Bang Rijian explained with a faint smile. He has a hunch that Liu Yu will definitely become a great figure in the ninja world. This is his intuition as a businessman.
"Swoosh-----"
A faint sound of breaking through the air was heard, and a black shadow quickly passed through the forest. The gusts of wind caused by the rapid movement startled the birds of all sizes in the forest to flutter.
"Huahuahua-----"
The figure stopped on a tree, looked at the sun, and whispered to himself: "Let's rest here for a while!"
This was Liu Yu who rushed back to Konoha from the Red Country. Since he didn't need to worry about the speed of ordinary people like Bang Rijian, Liu Yu returned very quickly. In a few days, he crossed the River Country, and now Liu Yu is staying in a forest on the eastern border of the Fire Country.
Liu Yu leaned against the tree trunk and began to eat the dry food he prepared. While eating, he reached out to the purple gem pendant hanging on his chest.
"This is really an unexpected gain!"
Holding the purple gem in his palm, Liu Yu sighed softly. Bang Rijian was right. This gem does have the function of helping the user to quickly restore chakra.
Holding it in her hand, Liu Yu could clearly feel a warm current flowing out of the originally cold purple gem, which made Liu Yu feel comfortable all over.
"Huh? Someone is approaching?"
Liu Yu, who was originally leaning against the tree to rest, frowned. She could feel a figure in the distance, approaching her direction quickly.
"More than one!"
After Liu Yu increased her perception, she could clearly feel that there were several figures behind the figure she had just discovered. They should be chasing the person in front. However, seeing the distance between the two sides getting bigger and bigger, it is estimated that the group behind cannot catch up with the person in front.
In the forest, a figure was running at high speed. A closer look showed that the person was wearing a standard vest of Konoha, but there was a horizontal bar on the Konoha forehead guard on his forehead.
This horizontal bar has well indicated the identity of the person coming, who is a Konoha rebel ninja who is on the run.
"Hoo-hoo----"
While running, the Konoha rebel ninja was panting heavily and looking back, as if something extremely scary was chasing him.
"Almost there!"
The Konoha rebel ninja kept saying in his heart that as long as he passed through this forest, he would escape from the Land of Fire.
Seeing himself getting closer and closer to the border, the Konoha rebel ninja couldn't help but show a hint of joy on his face. As long as he escaped to the Land of Rivers, the intensity of Konoha's pursuit would be much smaller.
"Bang----"
Just as the Konoha rebel ninja crossed a tree, Liu Yu suddenly appeared from the tree and hit the rebel ninja's abdomen with a side kick. The force was so great that he kicked the man away.
"Um-----"
The potential energy of the forward charge was already very large, and after being hit hard, the rebel ninja couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood in pain. The whole body half-bent and flew backwards.
"Grass Style, Thousand Leaf Binding"
As soon as the rebel's body landed on the ground, countless grass leaves protruded from the ground and entangled the rebel tightly.
"Ugh------"
The rebel from Konoha subconsciously wanted to break free, but the grass leaves that entangled him became more and more solid. And he was horrified to find that these grass leaves seemed to have the function of inhibiting the flow of his chakra.
"Don't waste your energy, you can't break free."
Liu Yu jumped down from the tree and came to his captive and said coldly.
After discovering the identity of this man's rebel ninja before, as a member of Konoha, Liu Yu decided to stop him here without hesitation. Judging from his appearance, he should be planning to escape from the Land of Fire and go to the Land of Rivers.
"Hehe----"
Looking at the Konoha forehead protector on Liu Yu's right arm, the bound Konoha rebel smiled bitterly in despair and helplessness. After all, he still couldn't escape! But he didn't expect that he would encounter the village's ambush here.
After waiting for a while, the Konoha Anbu responsible for chasing the rebel ninja caught up. Looking at the target who was tied up like a dumpling and Liu Yu next to him, they were obviously stunned for a moment. But after taking a look at the Konoha forehead protector on Liu Yu's right arm, they knew that Liu Yu was a friend, not an enemy, so they didn't seem to be very nervous.
"It was just a coincidence!"
Liu Yu looked at the Konoha Anbu who caught up with him, pointed at the captured rebel ninja, and explained lightly that she just happened to run into him this time.
The rebel ninja who was wrapped like a dumpling heard Liu Yu say that she was not an ambush this time, but just happened to run into him, and a mouthful of blood suddenly accumulated in his heart. Why was he so unlucky to choose this path, and fortunately he ran into Liu Yu.
"Excuse me, who are you?"
Coming to Liu Yu, the leading Konoha Anbu asked with a little doubt. It's not that he suspected Liu Yu had a problem, but it was his duty, and he needed to understand the situation clearly.
"Jounin Kusasen Liu Yu."
Liu Yu didn't care about the other party's question, but replied in a calm voice.
Hearing Liu Yu say that she was a jonin, the leading Konoha Anbu was obviously stunned. But he quickly reacted. The Kusasen clan did have the youngest jonin in Konoha, but he didn't expect to meet him here.
The other two Anbu behind him also looked at Liu Yu with a little surprise. Regarding this youngest jonin in Konoha, there has been a lot of noise in the village these days, but they didn't expect to meet him here today.
"Thank you!"
But they didn't pay too much attention to this issue, after all, they still had their own tasks. After the leading Konoha Anbu expressed his gratitude, he walked up and grabbed the rebel ninja. With a wave of his hand, he and his companions began to return with the rebel ninja.
Seeing the Anbu left, Liu Yu did not ask more questions. She knew that the Anbu were all carrying out confidential missions, and it was better to stay out of some things.
She didn't want to know why that person chose to defect. She only knew that as a member of Konoha now, she had to think about the problem from the perspective of Konoha.
No matter what the reason for defection is, as long as you defect, you are an enemy.
