Chapter 76: Shocked (2/2)

As long as he doesn’t participate in battles, Naito will never be a burden.

This is was the idea.

A month, this is the period they planned to have in here, now they deliver information to Konoha so they can go back again.

Once they go back in here they will go deep into the battlefield and complete their missions.

“We didn’t have any casualties this month.”

Horitsu was still holding his sword: “Good job everyone, all of you did well, Yujin you’re also very good, you didn’t drag the team behind.”

He approached Naito slowly while he said that.

They’ve encountered a team of four Shinobis from the Rock, Horitsu and Yamanaka killed three of them in seconds.

But this sentence…. really pissed off Naito.

“Well let’s go, the camp shouldn’t be far away from here.”

Horitsu put his sword back then he starts moving.

The others looked at each other, then they followed him.

Since the month’s period they had here got considered successful, the atmosphere becomes less heavy.

After they moved for a while, the rain seemed to become heavier all of sudden.

Everyone felt that something was strange.

The Anbus were all elites so they’ve reacted immediately.

“Not good! this an ambush!”

Horitsu knew that the situation they’ve got put in wasn’t good, but it was too late to think about the reason or they have got ambushed near to their camp.

He wanted to retreat immediately, but he pulled his sword instead.

However, something starts to appear under his feet!

A whirlpool starts to form under him, and all of sudden he got directly swept by its power.

“Water Release: Typhoon Water Vortex Technique!”

“Shit!”

In that moment, where he got put in a life and death situation, Horitsu didn’t hesitate to wave his fire sword.

Pushi!!

However, his raging flames got extinguish by the water.

“Impossible!”

Suddenly, Horitsu had a shocked expression.

At that moment of life and death, Horitsu was a lot confident in his fire, even if it was an A-Class Ninjutsu he was sure that he will be able to create gab so he can retreat, but he couldn’t even do that!

There’s one explanation of this… this Ninjutsu wasn’t created by one person!

…..

The rain was falling from the sky.

Naito watched Horitsu getting pulled by that whirlpool storm.

Pushi! Pushi!

Suddenly, the water’s color changed to red!

“Team Leader!”

The shock on Yamanaka and Asano’s face was really clear.

Crash!

At the next moment, the storm disappeared with Horitsu having countless of holes in his body, he seemed struggling, then all of sudden, he fell on a pool of his own blood.

The rain was still falling, but it couldn’t wash the bloody ground.
