Chapter 18 Disguise
When the refugee, full of sorrow, appeared, Natsuki discovered that after all, refugees were either ninjas or even basic disguise.
Seeing this scene, Xia Shu did not show up, but instead retreated to the deserted forest. At the speed of the refugees, he arrived here for a while, but his cautious personality prevented him from relaxing his due vigilance.
The body hides into the lush leaves, and the summer tree leans against the trunk, forming seals to separate shadow clones, allowing it to search for Kuye Black Rain.
As for Aoki Gennosuke and Maruseki Kosuke, although they were in other sections, they must have noticed the uncovered scene of refugees coming. Even though they did not come to meet him at this moment, they were already ready.
Within a few minutes, the sound of footsteps came into Natsuki's ears, and the Shadow clone arrived with Kuroo Black Rain.
The shadow clone was automatically released and the memory returned to the original body. This feeling was quite wonderful, which made him unable to help but have the shadow clone practice in his mind. This is undoubtedly a good way to shorten the speed of practice often increases the speed of practice. Unfortunately, he had not had time to apply it, and this incident happened in front of him.
That's right, Natsuki didn't think that the appearance of these refugees was simple, it was not an intuition. He had never trusted that illusory thing. It was just that the solemnity that Aoki Gennosuke inadvertently revealed in recent days, and the fact that Shirai Ryohiko, who possessed special perception secret techniques, was transferred from the Hirano team, which gave rise to a hint of suspicion.
In addition, the emergence of these refugees in groups is also a skeptical.
Although the war between Konoha and Saiyin first broke out in the territory of Sichuan Province and was pushed all the way into the Kingdom of Wind, in fact, most of the places where the Kingdom of Sichuan Province were affected were close to the west. However, this place was the extreme eastern border of the Kingdom of Sichuan Province. Therefore, it may be quite ordinary for sporadic refugees to appear, but it seems quite unreal to be so vast at such a moment.
"Suma Tree? What happened?"
Kuno Black Rain climbed up the tree, his eyes lit up on his tender face. I don’t know if it was nervous or excited, but when he asked, he had already grabbed a kunai from his ninja bag, as if he was in the battle at any time.
"Don't worry, look over there."
Natsuki raised his eyebrows and glanced at the Kuwai in Kuye Heiyu's hand, and then attracted the latter's gaze to the distance.
"Hmm? That's it?"
Kuino Heiyu was stunned for a moment, then his face collapsed and he shouted, "What! It's just a group of refugees!"
He looked disappointed, exhaled and curled his lips, his face full of meaning.
"Is it just a refugee?"
Xia Shu glanced at him with a slightly raised corner of her mouth.
"Hmm? Isn't it a refugee?"
Kuno Heiyu frowned and showed a look of surprise on his face.
"hehe!"
Xia Shu pulled the corner of her mouth and smiled and said nothing more. No matter how much she talked to someone who rarely had an IQ online, she would be nonsense.
"Hmph! If you don't say it, don't say it!"
Kuroyuki curled her lips and said nothing more. She frowned and looked at the slowly approaching refugees, muttering something in her mouth, "What's wrong with it?"
The atmosphere calmed down for a moment.
The refugees were getting closer and closer. At this moment, they had reached the gentle slope. Xia Shu's eyes swept quickly, and the aura of sorrow filled the dirty faces of most refugees, and a hint of despair could be seen vaguely.
This discovery made his eyebrows frown slightly.
According to common sense, if a refugee flees, even if he is in a difficult situation, he will definitely have a glimmer of hope when he travels with his family. However, among these refugees, Xia Shu can't help but see hope like dawn, but instead sees extremeness and madness.
Only hopeless despair can make willfulness grow into such a look, terrifying and hideous!
Seeing the refugee bent over and climbing up the slope, Natsuki grabbed the handle of the ninja knife on her back, lowered her eyes and thought for a while, and planned to hide for a while, waiting for the appearance of Gennosuke Aoki.
Soon, at the front, the refugees climbed up the gentle slope and approached the deserted forest.
If the enemy comes, this distance is enough to pose a threat.
It seemed that I realized this, and suddenly the sharp weapon broke through the air, and a sharp sound of sneering, a kunai was inserted on the road ahead of the refugees.
The silent threat caused the refugees to stagnate, and a panic arose for only a moment and then frozen strangely.
"Ahem! Is it a Ninja?"
At this time, a hunched figure walked out of the refugee group, and under his gray hair was a sad face with deep groves.
The cool breeze blowing from the gentle slope is blocked by the walls, making the place particularly quiet. Even the rustling of leaves is very light and weak, but the more this happens, the more dull the atmosphere here is.
The reason why it is so overcrowded and dull is that the person who throws out the kunnilessness ignores the words of the hunchbacked farmer. A gentle gust of wind passes by, rolling up fallen leaves and flying in the sky, but it is not revealed.
However, this attitude also filled a murderous aura like a knife.
"What's going on? What about Teacher Aoki? Isn't it good to keep these refugees here?"
Kuno Heiyu frowned when she saw it, her face full of melancholy expression.
"Don't talk, watch more!"
Natsuki glanced at him and said in a serious tone.
His eyes were slightly shifting to the hunchbacked middle-aged man with white hair that represented the refugee standing up. He held the handle of the ninja knife, his body was tight, and he was ready to take action.
No matter how good the disguise is, some people are unable to hide their essence, such as police, fugitives, and judges. In this world of ninjas, perhaps all ninjas can change their appearance through transformation techniques, but only a few who can cover up their temperament are dedicated to infiltration and intelligence. After all, ninjas in this world are more like warriors than assassins.
So it is obvious that the hunchbacked middle-aged man who was treated with cold treatment and ignored and showed evil spirits was not within that category.
But at the same time, Xia Shuye couldn't help but wonder what the intention was to invade the enemy who could not even pretend to be a good person.
Just as he lowered his eyes and thought, Kuoye Heiyu next to him suddenly rushed out, and the sound of his feet stepping on the branches made Xia Shu suddenly wake up. When he looked up again, Kuoye Heiyu had already rushed to the stopped refugees.
"Are you... Lord Ninja?"
The hunchbacked middle-aged man looked at the short boy in front of him with hesitation, as if he was unfamiliar with ninjas, so that when the ninja of Kuroyuki appeared, he still showed confusion and astonishment on his face at the right time.
"Old man, I'm just a sir, hehe!"
Pulling out the Kuwai from the ground, he was called the Lord, and Kuye Heiyu was a little shy and scratched his head and said.
"Oh, just a silence."
