Escape From Konoha Chapter 625

Chapter 625 Reunion of classmates

The figures are moving around in the forest under the night, and countless ninjas gather in the forest, galloping across the snow quickly, concentrating towards a certain point.

Among them are not only the ninjas of the patrolling force, but also Anbu who finally rushed to the front line from Konoha Village.

Because Asami Masumi was imprisoned by Asami Masumi with the Four Purple Flame Formation in Konoha Village, the best time to pursue them was lost, so it was not until this time that Anbu and the others arrived late.

But for the next search and arrest operation, whether it is Anbu or the ninjas of the patrolling force, they are full of confidence.

From the situation of the previous pursuit, we know that the target is in a very bad situation at this time. Although the strength of the forbidden drug has been temporarily improved, the time of this drug strengthening will inevitably not last long, and after the drug strengthening time expires, it will usher in a period of weakness.

This kind of forbidden drug also has many similar existences in Konoha.

For example, the three-color pills commonly used by Qiu Taoists.

In short, the situation is moving in a direction favorable to Konoha.

Regarding this matter, both Hokage and the rest of Konoha's high-ranking elders expressed great importance.

So far, they have little understanding of the internal situation of the ghost country, and because of lack of understanding, this ill-prepared war will end in failure.

They urgently need a 'target' to break this dilemma.

In the target of Masumi Asami, there must be information that Konoha desperately wants to obtain, to create new powerful conditions for Konoha.

Because of this, Anbu, who was in charge of the pursuit, and the ninjas of the patrolling force pursued with all their strength, and clung to the target.

He kept spitting out white gas from his mouth, although because of taking the secret medicine, he forcibly recovered his physical strength and chakra, and even relieved his mental fatigue. However, due to the boost effect brought by the secret medicine, it is impossible to maintain this state for a long time.

Once being entangled, it will still make yourself very dangerous.

Asami Masumi couldn't help but feel irritable about the Konoha ninja who clung to him behind him.

Even if he knows that the place not far ahead is the destination he never forgets, he still can't have too much arrogance about completely throwing off Konoha Ninja.

After all, it was not one or two ninjas chasing him, but a chasing force composed of at least a hundred ninjas.

As far as the above Shinobi are concerned, this configuration is already quite a luxurious lineup.

As he galloped forward quickly, the trees on both sides began to decrease.

Like entering a new environment, the surrounding temperature seems to have dropped further.

The white gas exhaled from the mouth became more intense in color.

Subconsciously, Asami Masumi slowed down her pace.

Whizzing!

Two ninjas suddenly jumped out from the side, one on the left and the other on the right, and cooperated very tacitly to attack Masumi Asami, who slowed down the speed.

Asami Masumi had expected this, and waved the Chakra scalpel in her hand calmly, only heard the sound of steel colliding, the Chakra scalpel collided with Kunai, ejected sparks, and successfully repelled the two Konoha ninjas who attacked her.

The sneak attack failed, and the two Konoha ninjas were not surprised. Their figures merged with the night, and they quickly disappeared from Asami Masumi's sight, as if they had never existed.

If it wasn't for the perception ninjutsu, facing such an assassination combination, even if they could save their lives, it would be impossible for them to be unscathed by such a sudden attack.

After the first attack failed, he decisively hid himself and waited for the next sneak attack opportunity. These two assassin ninjas are very calm and not greedy for success.

It is probably not realistic to deliberately show flaws and lure them into being fooled.

What's more, the large group of Konoha ninjas behind them are getting closer and closer, and the two assassins are obviously here to delay time.

After repelling them, Asami Masumi continued to move forward at a low speed.

The breath in front of it was silent and terrifying, the trees were getting fewer and fewer, and a cliff lay across the land in front of it without warning.

Asami Masumi, who kept moving forward at a low speed, saw this, further slowed down, stopped running, changed to walking, took a few steps forward quickly, and walked to the edge of the cliff.

The surface of the cliff is filled with cold mist, and the bottom is dark and bottomless, like an ancient murderer tearing open the giant mouth of people, which makes people feel shuddering.

The distance between the two sides of the cliff is at least hundreds of meters. There is no connecting tool such as a bridge. Even if the ninja has amazing jumping ability, but... a distance of 100 meters is an almost impossible task for Jonin.

However, Asami Masumi's goal was not to pass this cliff. She deliberately chose this direction in order to come to the famous "Great Rift Valley" in the Kingdom of Fire.

There are too many Konoha ninjas chasing her, and it is impossible to escape the siege of Konoha's chasing troops with the normal escape method.

In the end, he will only be caught back to Konoha, and after the interrogation, Konoha will obtain information.

Therefore, in this case, it is necessary to use a sufficiently complex environment to get rid of Konoha Ninja's pursuit.

The complex terrain of the Great Rift Valley of the Land of Fire can just be used to take advantage of it.

Most importantly, there is an abandoned stronghold here.

Or the experimental base.

It was left here when Shiraishi was still in Konoha.

In view of the fact that some experiments will be more dynamic and inconvenient to study in Muye Village, it is necessary to choose a place outside and build a research base.

She has been here several times in the past under the leadership of Shiraishi.

It's just that I didn't expect that I would use this long-abandoned stronghold at such a time.

Close to the edge of the cliff, the sound of footsteps approaching from behind became clearer.

Without hesitation, Asami Masumi jumped forward, her figure was wrapped in a thick cold mist, and she lost her trace in the blink of an eye.

A few seconds after she jumped off the cliff, several figures flashed to the front of the cliff and stopped.

The leader is Tsunade, the Hokage, followed by Anbu and ninjas from the patrolling force.

"Master Hokage, the opponent has jumped off the cliff, do you want to continue chasing him?"

Although this Great Rift Valley is the territory of the Kingdom of Fire, no one usually deliberately passes through such a dangerous place.

Therefore, even Konoha ninjas are mostly unfamiliar with the terrain of this place.

It is risky to pursue in such a complicated environment.

"Of course, I have already chased to such a place, how can I give up lightly? Come with me."

"yes!"

Following Tsunade's order, all the Konoha ninjas following Tsunade followed Tsunade's trail and jumped towards the Great Rift Valley ahead.

—Asami Masumi was panting, her body feeling weaker and weaker, and her intuition told her that things couldn't be delayed any longer.

You must get rid of Konoha's pursuers as soon as possible.

She groped for the road very smoothly in the dark. This road was dug out artificially. Although she had only been here a few times, Asami Masumi was very familiar with the terrain here, so she moved forward very fast.

In this familiar and complicated terrain, her movement speed is obviously higher than Konoha Ninja.

I don't know how long it has passed, but it's almost the end of the road.

The winding terrain, looking around, can only see the extremely blurry dark cliffs around.

At the end of the road, I came to an ordinary and flat huge rock, which seemed to be a dead end. Asami Masumi didn't care about this, but started to seal.

"untie!"

After speaking, there was a rumbling sound of stones moving in the darkness, and the flat stones moved sideways, opening a faint and shiny cave mouth.

Bright yellow lights shone from the cave, and even a section of the road outside was illuminated.

But this bright yellow light seemed extremely dim.

Still using a device similar to a sensor lamp, the deeper part of the cave is still pitch black.

Looking at the junction of bright yellow light and darkness, light and shadow blend together, if you are not familiar with this place, you may think it is a haunted house.

Asami Masumi stepped in.

The rumbling sound of the moving stone behind it sounded again, blocking the entrance behind it. It looked like an ordinary stone, used to deceive people.

As it went deeper, the induction lights lit up one by one, but the lights were still dim, as if the power was insufficient.

Asami Masumi didn't care about this, she was very familiar with walking quickly in this labyrinth-like experimental base. In front of a secret room, she kicked open the stone door and walked into the secret room.

is a storage room.

She took some medical bandages from it, but nothing else was touched.

After she walked out of the storage room, she wrapped a medical bandage around the seriously injured part of her body for pain relief.

While wrapping up the medical bandage, continue to move forward.

On the other side, Tsunade and the others came to the end of the winding road, frowning and looking at the surrounding environment.

The portable flashlight illuminates the surroundings as bright as day, and all the terrains can be seen without any reservation.

"Master Hokage, the opponent's Chakra disappeared from here."

An Anbu ninja in charge of perception said.

Tsunade rubbed his chin with his hand, and began to meditate.

"Master Naruto, do you need to find the mechanism here?"

Anbe Ninja continued to ask questions.

"No need, you stand back, I will do it myself."

Tsunade told the rest of the Konoha ninjas to back off.

After retreating to a certain distance, Tsunade blew into his fist, then pointed at the wall next to him without hesitation, and hit it hard.

The seemingly random knocking caused the surrounding cliffs to be shocked like an earthquake.

Under the violent destruction of Tsunade, visible cracks appeared on the originally solid cliff, and even exaggerated cracks appeared on the road dug out by the population at the foot.

The movement of the earthquake disappeared, and the surrounding cliffs collapsed. Only a huge rock in front survived without a trace of cracks.

"Is it here?"

Tsunade walked in front of the rock, raised his arm, and hit the rock hard.

Boom!

The stronger impact shook the surrounding cliffs, causing the cracks in the cliffs to further widen, and several boulders even fell from above.

Looking at the rocks that only had cracks but were not immediately destroyed, Tsunade smiled with great interest, and was a little delighted for a while.

Therefore, the fist gathered physical chakras visible to the naked eye, like clouds and fog, entwined around her fist.

Boom!

The ferocious impact made the rock finally unable to bear the pressure, and a hole burst open directly, revealing a road shrouded in bright yellow lights.

The rest of the Konoha ninjas surrounded them, poured into this passage one after another, and began to explore the way ahead with Tsunade.

Asami Masumi Chakra, who had lost her senses, reappeared within the perception range of Anbu Ninja.

"Where is Asami?"

After turning a few turns, Tsunade knew that the terrain here was complicated, so he asked the accompanying perception ninja.

"In this direction."

Anbe pointed to a wall and answered.

"Step aside."

The Konoha ninjas who followed this time became obedient, and immediately scattered around, leaving Tsunade alone.

Tsunade swung his fist mercilessly, smashing the wall pointed by Anbu with one punch, exposing the passage on the opposite side of the wall.

Boom!

Sounds like this kept reverberating in various places in this stronghold, causing the ground and walls to tremble non-stop, and the lights seemed to have a poor contact reaction under such impact, flickering and going out, which was very scary.

"This Hokage-sama is really messing around. However, it is too late to catch up now."

Asami Masumi, who came to the deep area of the stronghold, also felt an extremely huge chakra, which was violently agitating. Being able to use such a huge chakra and caused such a huge shock, there is no second suspect except Tsunade.

The place where she is at this time is the rest area of this stronghold.

Most of the items in the test area and warehouse area were removed, and the ones left behind were basically sundries of low value.

The lounge area too.

However, when Shiraishi built this stronghold, just in case, he also considered this stronghold. What should he do if someone finds out?

Therefore, when this stronghold was built, Baishi reserved an emergency escape channel for himself, so that he could use it to escape when his life was in danger.

"found it."

At the door of the bedroom in the deepest part of the rest area, next to the door, there was a door plate with the words 'Shiraishi' posted. Asami Masumi pushed open the door and entered the bedroom.

Except for a double bed sitting alone in the corner, the rest of the items were swept away.

Asami Masumi went straight to the corner where the double bed was, raised her leg lightly and kicked the double bed forcefully. With the sound and vibration, the double bed stood upright from the ground, shook for a while, and then stabilized, sticking to the wall without falling down.

In the original position of the double bed, a black iron door was fixed on the floor, which looked extremely heavy.

Asami Masumi squatted down, pressed the palm of her hand on the handle of the iron door, and dragged it upwards forcefully, the heavy door made a grinding sound, and hit the floor with a bang, kicking up dust.

A diagonally downward staircase appeared in front of him, and the bright yellow sensor light automatically turned on, illuminating the staircase below.

Asami Masumi took a breath, then quickly stepped on the slanting stairs, and left along the slope.

When her body was completely engulfed by the parallel lines of the floor, the iron door closed forcefully with a bang sound without warning, sealing the secret passage.

buzz—

It was obviously not the huge shock of fists smashing through the wall.

After smashing a wall with strange force, Tsunade and the accompanying Konoha ninja stopped their movements at the same time, listening to all directions.

A slight shaking came up from the ground, making the Konoha ninjas standing in the passage feel their bodies shaking slightly.

"Be careful, expand the enchantment!"

Tsunade seemed to suddenly understand something, and shouted orders to a group of Anbu.

"yes!"

The group of four Anbu immediately put out the scrolls and began to seal. The transparent wall like a white glass cover quickly expanded, enveloping Tsunade and the surrounding Konoha ninjas.

And the enchantment they generated immediately came into play—

Boom!

The slight vibration disappeared, followed by a shock that was a hundred times more terrifying than before.

A roaring noise erupted from the ground, and the surrounding walls and ceiling shattered piece by piece, making disturbing cracking sounds.

The bright yellow light column hanging from the ceiling was also shaken and cracked.

In a short while, the ceiling began to collapse, and countless large pieces of gravel fell from above, and began to smash against the white glass-like barrier, trying to bury these dozens of Konoha ninjas alive underground.

Boom!

The sound of the earthquake continued, and the sound of the building cracking also continued to echo in the space. It seemed that it would not stop until all the living people here were buried.

Finally, after a minute, the shock of the earthquake stopped.

Under the protection of the barrier, although the Konoha ninja inside the barrier looked panicked, they did not suffer any losses.

But... Tsunade felt a headache when he saw that he was surrounded by countless rocks.

Although she can dig out these boulders with strange force, by the time she digs a passage, Asami Masumi, who is the target, may have gone far.

She didn't think that Asami Masumi would destroy this secret stronghold without retreating, and she was also trapped in the trap.

"The communication team keeps in touch with the people outside, let them continue to hunt, and the other party will probably run outside. The rest of the team dug the passage with me, and continued to pursue from the hidden passage."

Tsunade simply assigned the order, let some of them communicate with the patrolling forces outside, and ordered them to continue the task of chasing Asami Masumi, and the other part dug a passage with themselves to find a hidden passage buried under the rubble.

As long as Asami Masumi has not left the Land of Fire, there is still a chance to capture her.

Tsunade waited for Konoha Ninja's Chakra to stop moving.

Perceiving this, Asami Masumi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the time of being hunted down lasted only a few hours, Asami Masumi felt as long as centuries.

She sat on the ground panting heavily, and the side effects of the secret medicine began to occur, making her brain become drowsy, and she was not very awake.

However, it is not time to breathe, and the danger is only temporarily out of the way.

Continue to stay here, danger will still come.

Holding on to the wall, he walked slowly forward.

Although the artificially excavated secret passage is neat and stable, the air is also extremely humid, and because it has not been cleaned for a long time, the air is not only humid and cold, but also has a pungent odor.

Trying to slow down her breathing, not to smell the peculiar smell in the air, Asami Masumi kept a slow pace, walking forward step by step.

Ten minutes, half an hour, an hour, I don't know how long I walked, Asami Masumi slowly raised her head, and there was an upward sloping stairway in front of her.

This upward passage leads directly to the northern forest in the Great Rift Valley of the Land of Fire.

For a short time, her life is safe.

But as long as you don't leave the Fire Nation, the crisis will come sooner or later.

While thinking in distress, Asami Masumi walked up the slope.

Knowing this earlier, she used Haruno Zhao and his group as bait and gave up.

Really did a thankless thing.

Being able to see the top platform of the stairs, Asami Masumi's panting sound became even more difficult.

Consciousness seems to be falling into a deep sleep, and every step I take, I have to use the strength of breastfeeding.

Suddenly, footsteps sounded.

Made her stiffen.

She looked up.

The exit gate of the top platform was opened.

White moonlight shone in, and a figure stood there, staring at it with eyes with a faint smile.

"It's really embarrassing, Asami-san, it seems that Konoha's pursuit has made you suffer a lot, and even used the stronghold I abandoned at the beginning."

"Who do you think made it look like this?"

A voice of resentment came out of Asami Masumi's mouth.

She stared fiercely at Shiraishi who was on the platform.

Baishi just smiled and said: "You should be glad that this stronghold is not a face project. After more than ten years, the self-destruct mechanism here can still be activated. Otherwise, I will go to Konoha's prison and fish you out."

"Sounds good..." Asami Masumi walked on the platform, her body seemed to be at the limit, her breathing became smaller and smaller, her eyes were sour and she opened her eyes forcefully, and asked with a sneer at Shiraishi, "So, are you here to complete the deal as agreed...or did you come here on purpose to kill people? After all, I am useless to you after leaving Konoha, and I will never work for you again. I have no interest in your ambitions."

She looked straight at Baishi without fear.

"Konoha...has not been destroyed yet, are you sure you want to quit?"

Shiraishi asked.

Asami Masumi smiled self-deprecatingly.

"I have been trapped in the psychology of hatred and revenge these years. However, no matter what I do, what I lose is what I lose. It is meaningless to destroy Konoha a hundred times...Kakashi is right. After revenge, all you get are boring things."

"Really? I didn't expect you to have such a feeling, obviously the hatred for Konoha and the third generation in the past..."

"Returning to the topic just now, are you here to complete the deal, or to kill people to silence it? It has been agreed in advance that even if the opponent is you, I will not sit still."

Asami Masumi held the chakra scalpel in one hand, quickly took out an emerald green pill from the ninja bag with the other hand, put it in her mouth, and stared at Shiraishi with vigilant eyes.

Obviously, she and Baishi are no longer collaborators at this time.

The so-called agreement is meant to be torn up, without any binding force.

Especially for someone in power like this.

Chiba Shiraishi during the Konoha period and Chiba Shiraishi who now controls the military and political power of a country are not the same person at all, and the two cannot be confused.

Now he is not only a ninja, but also the politician he hates the most, just like the dead Third Hokage!

Hypocrisy and deceit are words tailor-made for people like them.

Shiraishi didn't speak, but continued to look at Asami Masumi with smiling eyes.

Wordless silence surrounded the two of them.
