Ye Liangchen traveled to the world of Naruto and became an ordinary Genin, so the style of Konoha changed completely.
“First of all, I would like to state that I did not change the style of Konoha. Genin should do the task of Genin. I just fulfilled my duty.”
“If you can’t beat me, don’t say I’m the one who changed your style.”
After saying this, Ye Liangchen walked out of the mission center with a step that showed no regard for his relatives…
Ninjas: Come on, stop being lazy, he has to go on another mission, is it so hard to be a nobody?
Kakashi and Might Guy: Ye Chen, you are such a jerk that you forced us to lead the team to complete the mission ourselves, otherwise our position as Jonin will be in jeopardy.
A few days later, Ye Liangchen returned after completing his mission. He escorted a man in black robe into the Hokage’s office and laughed: This guy was hindering Konoha’s investigation and I caught him.
Let’s start maintaining village rules from me!
“Orochimaru?” Seeing the man in black robe, the Third Hokage was stunned. Kakashi and Might Guy were also stunned: Who made him a low-level ninja?
People in Konoha: The style of painting is definitely not influenced by me!
001. Kitten, don’t run
At the mission announcement point in Konoha Village, the huge crowds of people were even more terrifying than the subway during rush hour.
The Genin were huddled together like a group of hungry chicks for a mere D-rank mission, afraid that if they were a step slow they would miss the chance to get rich.
Ye Liangchen plunged into the crowd and instantly felt that he was not here to complete a mission, but to experience being a can of human sardines.
“Ouch!” With a scream, Ye Liangchen felt like he was twisted into a dough stick, with his limbs bent at a weird angle. This posture was so funny that it was like performance art.
The surrounding Genin were stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, their laughter full of disdain and ridicule for the weak, as if to say: “Look at this rookie, is he really that desperate for a D-rank mission?”
Ye Liangchen got up from the ground and brushed off the dust on his body, as if he had just done a warm-up exercise.
He didn’t care about the ridicule of these people at all. All he had in his eyes was the crumpled task list on the task bar. That was his hope of becoming stronger!
“Laugh, laugh. When I work hard, you won’t even be able to see my back!” Ye Liangchen encouraged himself silently in his heart, and then squeezed into the crowd again at a faster speed.
Haruno Sakura stood outside the crowd, her arms folded across her chest, watching Ye Liangchen running around like a headless fly, a disdainful smile on her lips.
“Tsk, with his skills, he won’t be able to complete the mission even if he gets it.” Haruno Sakura said sourly, her tone full of contempt for Ye Liangchen, as if to say: “Do you think you are worthy enough to compete with me?”
When Ye Liangchen heard this, instead of being discouraged, he became even more excited. He turned his head and grinned at Haruno Sakura, revealing a row of white teeth, his eyes full of provocation and excitement.
“Really? Then let’s wait and see!” This sentence was like a spark that instantly ignited the war between the two people, and the air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder.
Ye Liangchen successfully grabbed a task list for “finding a lost pet cat”. He couldn’t wait to unfold it, his face filled with excitement, as if this was not an ordinary task list, but a ticket to the pinnacle of his life.
When other Genin saw his look, they all looked at him with contempt, as if to say, “What a fool! Are you so excited about a D-rank mission?” But Ye Liangchen couldn’t hear them at all at the moment. All he had in his eyes was the “Cat Alien” that he was about to conquer.
Just as Ye Liangchen was about to leave, a strange voice came: “Hey, isn’t this our Konoha’s Desperate Saburo? You are so anxious, are you afraid that your pet cat will be snatched away?”
Ye Liangchen raised his eyebrows. Haha? They are just jealous! A real man will not be defeated by ridicule!
He rolled his eyes and ran towards the back mountain!
The other Genin were stunned when they saw his actions, was this kid serious?
Shouldn’t we search every street and alley in the village when looking for a pet?
How to run to the back mountain?
Does he think that a pet cat can climb mountains by itself?
“Isn’t Ye Liangchen a fool? He ran to the back mountain to look for a cat. Is his brain broken?” Inuzuka Kiba said in disbelief while holding Akamaru.
“Haha, I think he’s gone crazy with anxiety. For a D-rank mission, he even forgot basic common sense.” Yamanaka Ino put her hands on her hips and said sarcastically, her tone full of disdain.
Although Haruno Sakura didn’t say anything, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, and she obviously found Ye Liangchen’s “mysterious operation” very ridiculous.
Even the usually lazy Nara Shikamaru couldn’t help but raise his head, glanced at Ye Liangchen’s back, then shook his head, as if to say: What a troublesome guy.
However, Ye Liangchen didn’t care about their opinions at all. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he smiled secretly in his heart: “How can a group of mortals understand my genius thinking? I’m taking the anti-routine route!”
The reason why he went to the back mountain was because he knew that cats generally like cool and humid places, while the pet cats in the village were mostly spoiled and would not like places exposed to direct sunlight.
Deep in the mountain, there is an abandoned ancient well. It is dark and damp there, making it a perfect place for cats to hide.
When Ye Liangchen climbed to the back mountain panting, he found that, as he expected, the abandoned ancient well emitted a faint cat’s meow.
He approached the ancient well cautiously and found a dirty kitten huddled pitifully in the corner, while a strange little creature covered with spikes was baring its teeth and growling at the kitten. This scene looked like some kind of Warcraft cub.
“Meow~” When the kitten saw Ye Liangchen, it made an even more miserable cry, as if asking for help.
“Hey, isn’t this the cat that got lost today? It looks like it has a bad temper!” Ye Liangchen said as he gave the little monster a provocative look.
The little monster was obviously angered by Ye Liangchen’s provocation. It let out a sharp cry, and the spikes on its body instantly stood up. Then it rushed towards Ye Liangchen at such a speed that it was astonishing.
“Damn, this little thing is quite ferocious!” Ye Liangchen cried out inwardly and hurriedly dodged to the side, but his arm was still scratched by the little monster’s spikes, leaving several red marks.
“Oh my god, this is a bit embarrassing!” Ye Liangchen grimaced and rubbed his painful arm.
“Hahaha, that’s right. He can’t even handle a small pet.” A burst of gloating laughter came from not far away. Other Genin had arrived.
They watched from afar as Ye Liangchen was chased by the strange little monster, and they all laughed so hard that they fell over, as if they were watching a wonderful farce.
But Ye Liangchen didn’t notice their ridicule at all, his attention was all focused on the little monster.
Ye Liangchen dodged the attack again. His eyes flashed and he said to himself: “It’s time to fight back!”
He struck a fighting stance, ready to give the little monster a “surprise”!
Ye Liangchen dodged the attack of the little monster and at the same time felt a strange energy surging in his body, which made him feel warm and indescribably comfortable.
He clenched his fists, feeling full of power.
“Is this the legendary halo of the protagonist?” He was secretly delighted and decided to strike first!
“Little guy, take my punch!” Ye Liangchen shouted and threw a punch, hitting the little monster right on the head.
The little monster let out a scream, was knocked away, and fell heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
“Oh, that’s good!” Ye Liangchen was pleasantly surprised to find that every time he attacked, the energy in his body would increase by one point.
He swung his fist again, faster and more powerfully, with the wind from his fist whistling as if carrying an invisible force.
The little monster was beaten back step by step by Ye Liangchen’s attack, and the spikes on its body fell off one by one, making a “ding-dang-dang” sound, which sounded like falling coins.
It let out a series of shrill cries, as if begging for mercy.
The other Genin were stunned when they saw this scene. What was going on with Ye Liangchen?
How come he suddenly became so powerful?
“Shit, is this kid on drugs?” Inuzuka Kiba widened his eyes with an expression of disbelief.
“This kid is really incomprehensible.” Yamanaka Ino muttered to himself.
Haruno Sakura was shocked. She could never have imagined that the last-place student whom she laughed at actually had such powerful strength.
Ye Liangchen ignored their surprise and continued to attack. Each punch was powerful. The little monster had no power to fight back in front of him and was hit around by him like a ball.
Finally, the little monster let out a final scream, then fell to the ground, motionless.
Ye Liangchen clapped his hands, looking very proud: “Little guy, you are still a little naive to fight with me!”
At this moment, the kitten that was being chased by the little monster suddenly jumped out from the corner. It did not walk towards Ye Liangchen, but ran deeper into the back mountain at a speed that was astonishing.
“Hey? Wait!” Ye Liangchen was stunned. Why didn’t this kitten play by the rules?
He hesitated for a moment, wondering whether he should chase after him.
There are dangers lurking everywhere deep in the mountains. What should we do if we encounter any danger?
Just as he was struggling internally, a mist suddenly rose up around him, and it was so white that he couldn’t see his hand in front of him.
Ye Liangchen was startled and shouted hurriedly: “Kitten? Where are you?”
However, the only answer he got was an empty echo.
The kitten just disappeared into the fog without a trace.
“I…” Ye Liangchen stood there in a daze, looking confused. What’s going on? Is this a time-travel drama within a drama? “

“What the hell, what the hell is this place?” Ye Liangchen groped in the thick fog. He couldn’t see his hand in front of him and could only move forward by feeling.
There was silence all around, only the sound of his own breathing and footsteps echoing, making him feel even more creepy.
“Kitten? Where are you?” Ye Liangchen shouted at the top of his voice, but his voice drifted away in the mist and received no response.
He was becoming more and more anxious. If the kitten was lost, the mission would be ruined.
He continued walking forward and suddenly felt something soft under his feet. He looked down and was immediately frightened out of his wits.
It was a huge spider, covered with black hair, with eight eyes glowing green, staring at him viciously.
“Damn it!” Ye Liangchen screamed, and quickly took a few steps back, pulled out his kunai, and assumed a fighting stance.
The spider did not attack him. Instead, it slowly turned around and crawled into the depths of the fog.
Ye Liangchen hesitated for a moment, should he chase after him?
The spider looks dangerous, but the kitten might be near it.
“Forget it, I’m not someone who can be scared!” Ye Liangchen gritted his teeth and decided to take a risk.
He followed the spider carefully through the fog and came to an open area.
However, there was no sign of the kitten here, only an ancient stone tablet with some strange words engraved on it.
Ye Liangchen studied it for a long time but couldn’t figure it out, so he had to give up.
He returned dejectedly, feeling depressed.
Returning to the task posting site, Ye Liangchen saw a new D-level task: escort the villagers to the neighboring village.
His eyes lit up and he decided to accept the task for a change of mood.
“I accept this mission!” Ye Liangchen announced loudly.
The surrounding Genin began to get restless again and cast jealous glances at him.
“Why are you here again? It was obviously me who took a fancy to this mission first!” Inuzuka Kiba stood up, looking unconvinced.
“Do you understand the rule of first come, first served? Whoever gets it first gets it!” Ye Liangchen responded without showing any weakness.
“You…” Inuzuka Kiba gritted his teeth in anger, wishing he could rush up and beat him up.
The surrounding Genin split into two groups, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
“Ahem…” a voice broke the deadlock.
Iruka, the Chunin instructor, walked over with a helpless smile on his face.
“What are you doing? You want to fight again?” “What are you doing? You want to fight again?” Iruka’s Chunin instructor walked over with a helpless smile on his face.
He was wearing his iconic ninja suit, looking majestic yet a little lazy.
Seeing this, the Genin around fell silent, their eyes filled with awe for Iruka.
Ye Liangchen and Inuzuka Kiba stood face to face, their breath almost colliding.
The atmosphere was so tense that you could hear a pin drop.
The Genin nearby were divided into two, one supporting Ye Liangchen and the other supporting Inuzuka Kiba.
“Since both of you are so motivated, let’s come to a fair solution.” Iruka began, with a hint of teasing in his tone.
He looked around and saw that everyone had a puzzled look on their faces, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
“Let’s guess the riddle. Whoever answers it fastest gets the task.”
As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding area suddenly exploded.
Some people chuckled, some were stunned, and some looked confused.
“Guess… guess the riddle?” Inuzuka Kiba widened his eyes, looking incredulous.
“Yes, it’s a riddle.” Iruka nodded in confirmation, a cunning gleam in his eyes.
“You two, are you ready?”
When Ye Liangchen heard this, he was secretly delighted.
He is not afraid of guessing riddles.
As someone who has loved watching various intelligence competitions since he was a child, he is naturally familiar with these brain-teasers.
He puffed out his chest with confidence and gave Inuzuka Kiba a provocative smile.
“Okay, it’s still uncertain who will win!” Ye Liangchen said loudly, his tone full of confidence.
“Hmph, just wait and see!” Inuzuka Kiba was not willing to be outdone and responded with gritted teeth.
Seeing that the two were ready, Iruka cleared his throat and said slowly: “Listen carefully, the first riddle is – wearing a red hat, wearing a green shirt, the best in summer. What is this?”
Ye Liangchen’s mind lit up. This riddle was too simple.
He was about to speak when he caught a glimpse of Hyuga Hinata’s actions out of the corner of his eye.
She approached quietly, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and a hint of shyness and admiration in her eyes.
She whispered, “It’s watermelon…”
Ye Liangchen’s heart was touched and his face turned slightly red.
He didn’t expect Hinata to give him a hint at this critical moment, and he was deeply touched, although he didn’t need any hints from others.
He looked at Hinata, their eyes met, and the air seemed to be filled with a sweet scent.
“Watermelon! Big watermelon!” Ye Liangchen answered loudly, with a barely perceptible tenderness in his voice.
“Correct!” Iruka nodded with satisfaction and handed the task scroll to Ye Liangchen.
The surrounding Genin suddenly exclaimed in amazement, some were eager to try, while others had complicated looks.
Ye Liangchen took the task scroll, his lips curled up, and he was secretly proud of himself.
Just then, a voice came from the crowd: “Wait a minute, I also want to complete this task with him!”
Everyone turned around and saw Inuzuka Kiba with a determined expression and an unyielding light in his eyes.
Ye Liangchen was slightly stunned, then he smiled, as if he had a new plan in mind.
“Okay, let’s do it together.” Ye Liangchen nodded, turned to Iruka and said, “But this time, we have to complete the task more perfectly!”
Iruka smiled and said nothing more.
The two turned to the starting point of the mission, each with their own thoughts, and gradually embarked on the journey of escorting the villagers.
However, they didn’t know that the real test of this mission had just begun…
On the way to escort the villagers, the sunlight shone through the leaves, casting mottled spots of light, and the breeze blew by, bringing a hint of coolness.
Ye Liangchen walked at the front of the team, followed closely by Inuzuka Kiba. Although the two walked one in front and one behind, the competitive spirit between them did not diminish.
Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps broke the silence in the forest.
“Oh no, Ryochen-kun, there’s an ambush!” Inuzuka Kiba growled and rushed out first.
A group of masked bandits armed with weapons jumped out of the woods and blocked their way ferociously.
“Hey! This mountain is mine, and these trees are planted by me. If you want to pass through here, you have to leave some money for passage!” The bandit leader shouted at the top of his voice, which was sharp and piercing, like a broken gong.
Seeing this, Inuzuka Kiba rushed forward without saying a word, and his ninja dog Akamaru followed suit and joined the battle.
However, two fists are no match for four hands, and Inuzuka Kiba was soon surrounded by the bandits.
“What a fool!” Ye Liangchen cursed inwardly, shook his head helplessly, and joined the battle.
Seeing this, the bandits immediately changed their strategy and began to concentrate their firepower on attacking Ye Liangchen.
“Boy, you are good at fighting, right? I’ll beat you into a pig’s head!” A robber waved a big knife and chopped at him viciously.
Ye Liangchen did not dare to be careless. He quickly dodged and launched a counterattack.
Holding a kunai, he moved among the bandits like a ghost, and each attack accurately hit the enemy’s vital points.
As the battle progressed, Ye Liangchen clearly felt that his chakra value was increasing rapidly, as if there was a perpetual motion machine in his body, continuously generating energy.
His attacks became stronger and stronger, and each blow carried immense power, beating the bandits to a pulp and leaving them wailing all over the place.
“Shit, is this guy a monster? Why is he getting more and more fierce?” a robber said in horror, the weapon in his hand shaking slightly.
“Yeah, it feels like he’s a god of war!” another bandit echoed.
The noise was so loud that it attracted a group of passing Genin to stop and watch.
The group of Genin were stunned. They had never seen such a powerful Genin.
For a moment, they all looked at Ye Liangchen with admiration.
However, just when they thought the battle was about to end, the villagers began to whisper to each other, with doubtful looks on their faces.
“Look, could it be that they are in cahoots with the bandits? Are they deliberately putting on a show for us?” a villager whispered.
“It’s possible. Look how fiercely they fought just now. Maybe it’s a self-torture tactic!” another villager echoed.
“What nonsense are you talking about?” Ye Liangchen was furious when he heard the villagers’ comments. “We risked our lives to protect you, and you actually suspect that we are in league with the bandits?”
“Who knows? People’s hearts are hidden!” said an old man sarcastically.
“That’s right. In today’s world, who knows who is a good person and who is a bad person!” a woman also said sarcastically.
The surrounding villagers began to talk and the atmosphere became depressing.
Ye Liangchen felt as if he had been betrayed by the whole world, his heart filled with helplessness and anger.
Inuzuka Kiba was about to say something but was stopped by Ye Liangchen.
“It’s useless to reason with them!” Ye Liangchen’s eyes turned cold, “It doesn’t matter how it goes, just send them there!”

003. I accept this mission! (Old version)
Your kindness is really taken for granted!
He took a deep breath and tried to suppress his anger.
Ye Liangchen originally wanted to argue with the villagers, but then he changed his mind and felt that it was not worth wasting time on these people.
Just get them to their destination, the process is not important.
The journey was uneventful and the mission was completed.
As soon as I returned to the task release point, I saw an urgent task: clear out the monsters in the abandoned warehouse?
“Cleaning up the abandoned warehouse?” Ye Liangchen repeated, with a gleam in his eyes.
Isn’t this another good opportunity to prove myself?
When the other Genin heard about this mission, they all looked timid.
That abandoned warehouse is a notoriously dangerous place. It is said that all kinds of strange monsters live in it, and most people who go in will never come back.
“Ye Liangchen, I think you should just give up. This mission is no joke.” Haruno Sakura crossed her arms, with a hint of sarcasm in her tone.
Inuzuka Kiba also echoed: “That’s right, why are you trying to show off? Don’t lose your life.”
Ye Liangchen sneered: “What? Are you scared? I’m not afraid!” He turned to look at the ninja who issued the task, and said firmly: “I accept this task!”
Everyone was stunned. They didn’t expect that Ye Liangchen would actually dare to take on this task.
Hyuga Hinata looked at him worriedly, wanting to persuade him to give up, but she didn’t dare to speak.
Iruka frowned, thinking to himself: Does this kid really have the ability, or is he just showing off?
On the way to the abandoned warehouse, Nara Shikamaru and Yamanaka Ino stopped Ye Liangchen.
“Hey, Ye Liangchen, are you really planning to go?” Nara Shikamaru asked lazily, “That place is not a good place to go. I advise you not to go.”
Yamanaka Ino also advised: “Exactly, who do you think you are? You still want to clear out the monsters alone? Don’t overestimate your abilities!”
Ye Liangchen stopped and looked at the two of them, with a crooked mouth, “Who are you two with? Why do you care about me?”
“Hmph, you don’t know how high the sky is or how deep the earth is!” Yamanaka Ino snorted coldly and turned away.
Nara Shikamaru shrugged and left as well.
Ye Liangchen looked at the backs of the two men, a sneer appearing on the corner of his mouth.
Just wait and see, I will show you what real strength is!
The door of the abandoned warehouse was rusty and made a creaking sound.
There was a musty smell in the warehouse that made people feel sick.
Ye Liangchen took a deep breath and pushed open the door of the warehouse…
“What’s that sound?”
The warehouse door made a teeth-grinding creaking sound, and a musty smell mixed with dust hit Ye Liangchen in the face. He almost died on the spot.
He covered his nose and stepped into the warehouse cautiously. Dust was raised under his feet. The light was dim and visibility was extremely low.
“What’s that sound?” A low roar came from deep in the warehouse, like the roar of a wild beast, or the roar of an old machine.
Ye Liangchen’s heart trembled and he clenched the kunai in his hand.
A huge black shadow slowly emerged from the darkness, and its outline became clearer and clearer – a monster as big as a car, covered with hard scales, with a pair of huge scarlet eyes emitting fierce light, and sticky liquid dripping from its mouth, making a “hissing” sound.
My goodness, is this really a monster that a Genin can deal with?
Ye Liangchen was complaining crazily in his heart, this was a hellish start!
The monster let out a deafening roar and pounced towards Ye Liangchen.
Ye Liangchen quickly dodged and barely avoided the monster’s sharp claws.
The wooden structure of the warehouse creaked under the monster’s attack, and dust and debris fell like raindrops.
Outside the warehouse, Haruno Sakura and others who came to watch the excitement changed their expressions when they heard the noise.
“What’s that sound inside… inside?” Haruno Sakura’s voice trembled a little.
Inuzuka Kiba swallowed his saliva, “It’s not some powerful monster, is it?”
Inside the warehouse, Ye Liangchen dodged the monster’s attacks while observing its weaknesses.
This monster is huge and attacks fiercely, but it doesn’t seem to be fast.
Ye Liangchen took advantage of the terrain and kept dodging and moving like a nimble monkey.
However, as time goes by, the monsters’ attacks become stronger and stronger, and the warehouse becomes shaky and may collapse at any time.
Ye Liangchen felt that breathing was becoming increasingly difficult, and the pressure was like a mountain pressing down on him, making it hard for him to breathe.
A tense and depressing atmosphere enveloped the entire warehouse, as if even the air had frozen.
“Damn it, I can’t go on like this!” Ye Liangchen wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to himself.
He felt his chakra being depleted rapidly, but the monster showed no signs of fatigue.
At this moment, the monster let out an earth-shaking roar and slammed into Ye Liangchen.
Ye Liangchen was unable to dodge and was knocked away by a powerful force. He fell heavily to the ground and felt that all his internal organs were displaced.
“Cough cough…” Ye Liangchen coughed up a mouthful of blood and struggled to stand up, but found that he was weak all over.
The monster approached step by step, staring at him with its huge scarlet eyes, as if looking at a lamb to be slaughtered.
“Am I going to die here?” A feeling of despair surged in Ye Liangchen’s heart.
“Wait…” He suddenly felt a warm current flowing in his body…
The warehouse was shaking and dust was flying everywhere. Ye Liangchen felt as if his internal organs were churning.
He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. Oh my god, this monster might be a cheater!
No, I have to cheat too!
In a flash, Ye Liangchen felt a warm current gushing out from his dantian and flowing through his body, feeling as refreshing as the electrotherapy given by an old Chinese doctor.
He clenched his fists, feeling unprecedented strength, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly: It’s decided that it’s you!
Super invincible Rasengan…
Pah, super invincible little fist!
Ye Liangchen jumped up and unleashed a series of punches at the monster.
Every punch was accompanied by a whistling sound, as if it contained a tremendous force.
The monster was beaten back repeatedly, and its scales fell off piece by piece, making a crisp “ding-dang-dang” sound, which sounded very much like the sound of Lao Wang next door knocking on a basin.
Outside the warehouse, Haruno Sakura and others were stunned.
“What’s going on? This noise… could it be that Ye Liangchen is fighting back?” Inuzuka Kiba widened his eyes in disbelief, “This is too outrageous!”
Inside the warehouse, Ye Liangchen became more and more excited as he punched, and his punches became faster and faster, almost as if he was punching at eight times the speed.
The monster let out a series of wails, and its huge body fell to the ground with a bang, stirring up a cloud of dust.
“Done!” Ye Liangchen clapped his hands, keeping his credit and fame to himself.
When he walked out of the warehouse, he was greeted by thunderous cheers from the villagers.
The other Genin returned dejected, their missions all failed, only Ye Liangchen completed all the missions.
The villagers praised Ye Liangchen as a hero and threw away their previous doubts about him.
Ye Liangchen counted the thick stack of banknotes in his hand, feeling very happy: This is a huge profit!
However, just as he was enjoying the joy of victory, he suddenly discovered something was wrong.
These tasks…
It seemed too much of a coincidence, like someone had arranged it on purpose.
He frowned and muttered to himself, “Who is behind this?”
Feilu novel, Fei will make you look good!
004. Chunin Test, such a big fireball?! (Old version)
Ye Liangchen stood at the task release point, holding the task reward tightly in his hand, but his thoughts drifted to the seemingly unrelated tasks before.
coincide?
conspiracy?
He smelled something unusual, as if someone was secretly plotting something, and he just happened to be a chess piece.
Who is it?
What is the purpose?
Countless questions swirled in his mind like an unsolvable knot.
“What are you thinking about, my King Ye Junjuan?” A familiar voice interrupted his thoughts.
Ye Liangchen looked up and saw Kakashi leaning against a telephone pole, holding a gun in his hand, looking as if it had nothing to do with him.
“Nothing, I just feel that the recent mission is a bit strange.” Ye Liangchen said casually.
“Strange? What’s strange about it?” Kakashi closed the book and asked with interest.
Ye Liangchen hesitated for a moment and decided not to mention the matter for the time being.
“Forget it, the Chunin selection exams are about to begin, so I should focus on improving myself first.”
Kakashi nodded: “Not bad, you have made progress. This exam is a good opportunity, make good use of it.”
Ye Liangchen said goodbye to Kakashi and went straight to the registration site for the Chunin Selection Exam.
As soon as I reached the door, I ran into Inuzuka Kiba and Akamaru.
“Hey, isn’t this our ‘Perfect Attendance King’ Ye Liangchen?” Inuzuka Kiba said sarcastically, “Why, you are also here to sign up for the Chunin Selection Exam? Don’t cry when you get rejected.”
Ye Liangchen glanced at him and said calmly: “Crying? You underestimate me too much. But you, be careful not to be burned to ashes by my ‘youthful blood’.”
“Hmph, you’re so arrogant! You’re just a reckless guy, I advise you to give up as soon as possible!” Inuzuka Kiba said angrily.
“Reckless? Are you jealous of my strength?” Ye Liangchen’s mouth curled up slightly, “Who will win or lose will be revealed in the exam!”
The two of them were at loggerheads, neither giving in, and the air around them seemed to freeze.
The Genin who were watching were whispering among themselves, speculating on the outcome of this conflict.
Suddenly, a voice broke the deadlock: “You two, if you want to fight, go outside and don’t block the way here.”
The one who spoke was Nara Shikamaru, who stood aside with an impatient look on his face, seemingly having no interest in the argument at all.
“Shikamaru, what do you mean?” Inuzuka Kiba said dissatisfiedly.
“Literally.” Nara Shikamaru yawned, “It’s troublesome to waste energy before the exam even starts.”
Ye Liangchen looked at Nara Shikamaru’s lazy appearance and laughed in his heart: This guy is really frugal with words.
Just then, the door of the registration office opened, and an examiner came out and announced that the exam was about to begin…
“Candidates, please enter the examination room.”
At the examiner’s command, the Chunin selection exam officially began.
The first test: Ninjutsu assessment!
The noisy examination room suddenly became quiet, and a tense atmosphere filled the air.
“Hmph, let me see your strength, Ye Liangchen!” Inuzuka Kiba was eager to try, and Akamaru growled beside him. The man and the dog were full of fighting spirit.
Ye Liangchen raised the corners of his mouth slightly and walked confidently to the center of the testing site.
He formed seals with his hands at such a speed that only an afterimage was left.
“Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu!” A huge fireball burst out from his mouth, illuminating the entire examination room.
“Fuck! So big? Such a big fireball?!” Inuzuka Kiba’s eyes widened and his jaw almost dropped.
The other Genin also exclaimed in amazement. How could such power be wielded by a Genin?
“This boy Liangchen is quite something…” Kakashi hid in the dark and observed, and couldn’t help but sigh at Ye Liangchen’s rapid progress.
After easily passing the first level, Ye Liangchen held his head high and accepted everyone’s envious gazes.
Next is the second test: actual combat confrontation!
“Your opponent is… Nara Shikamaru.” The examiner announced the result.
Shikamaru walked up to Ye Liangchen with a helpless look on his face: “Oh, what a hassle…”
The battle begins! Shikamaru quickly forms a seal, “Shadow Imitation Technique!”
Ye Liangchen felt his body stiffen and he couldn’t move. “Damn it, I’m being controlled!”
“Just give up, you can’t win this battle.” Shikamaru yawned, looking confident of victory.
“You wish!” Ye Liangchen roared in his heart, the chakra in his body surged wildly, and he actually broke free from the control of the shadow imitation technique!
“What?!” Shikamaru was shocked. How could this be possible? !
“Next, it’s my turn!” Ye Liangchen flashed and instantly came in front of Shikamaru and threw a punch!
“Bang!” Shikamaru was knocked out and fell heavily to the ground.
“This speed…this power…” Shikamaru struggled to stand up and looked at Ye Liangchen in disbelief.
Ye Liangchen did not give him a chance to breathe. His punches rained down like raindrops, and each blow contained great power.
“Stop… Stop…” Shikamaru uttered a few words with difficulty, “I… I give up…”
“Thank you.” Ye Liangchen put away his fist, turned around and left in a cool manner.
“This… this is too strong…” The surrounding Genin were silent, all shocked by Ye Liangchen’s amazing strength.
“Shikamaru actually lost…” Inuzuka Kiba clenched his fists, and a raging fire of war burned in his heart.
A figure stood quietly behind the crowd, with a pair of white eyes staring closely at Ye Liangchen’s back…
“He… is so awesome…”
Hinata’s small hands tightly grasped the corner of her clothes, and her eyes followed the figure in the field.
Every time Ye Liangchen attacked, her heart beat faster, and every time Ye Liangchen dodged, she worried for him.
Ye Liangchen would occasionally look in Hinata’s direction, and their eyes met in the air. Hinata’s cheeks instantly turned red, like a ripe apple, and she lowered her head shyly.
This little flame of ambiguity seems particularly warm in the tense and exciting Chunin selection exam.
The next assessment item tests the ninjas’ ability to resist illusions.
Ye Liangchen’s opponent is a guy with sinister eyes, who is said to be proficient in all kinds of strange illusions.
The battle began. The opponent quickly formed seals and muttered something, and an invisible wave spread out.
“Oh no, it’s an illusion!” The ninjas outside the field exclaimed.
Ye Liangchen only felt a flash before his eyes, and the surrounding scene changed instantly.
He seemed to be in endless darkness, unable to see his hand in front of him.
Fear surged into his heart like a tide, enveloping him tightly.
Then, all kinds of horrifying scenes began to appear, hideous monsters, and shrill wails, which made him shudder.
He wanted to struggle and escape, but found himself unable to move, as if he was trapped in the darkness.
“It’s over, Ye Liangchen is going to lose!”
“This illusion is too terrifying. Ordinary people can’t resist it at all!”
In the audience, everyone was talking about it and were all worried about Ye Liangchen.
Even Kakashi couldn’t help but frown.
At this moment, Ye Liangchen’s eyes in the darkness suddenly changed, and his originally confused eyes became firm.
He clenched his teeth and clenched his fists, as if he was gathering strength.
“Oh, you think you can trap me with just this little trick?” The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a confident smile.
The screen suddenly went black…
“What… is going on?”
“Disconnected?”
005.Team fight? (Old version)
The screen lit up again, and Ye Liangchen was still in the darkness, but a faint golden light was emanating from his body, like a golden silkworm cocoon, protecting him inside.
He closed his eyes, frowned, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, as if he was going through a fierce battle.
“What’s going on? This kid… is he resisting an illusion?” Seeing this, the ninjas outside the field all showed surprised expressions.
Kakashi’s brows relaxed, and a barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: “It seems that this kid is more interesting than I thought.”
In the darkness, Ye Liangchen suddenly opened his eyes, and two golden lights shot out from his eyes, illuminating the surrounding darkness.
The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a confident smile: “You think you can trap me with just this little trick?”
As he finished his words, the darkness around him began to recede like a tide, revealing the original scene.
Ye Liangchen was still standing there, unharmed, as if everything that had just happened was just an illusion.
“Fuck! This kid actually cracked the illusion!”
“This is too awesome! This is an illusion that even a jonin can hardly resist!”
In the audience, everyone was suddenly excited and looked at Ye Liangchen with admiration.
However, Ye Liangchen’s opponent looked incredulous at this moment, as if he had seen a ghost.
“Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! How could you possibly break my illusion?”
Ye Liangchen shrugged and said with a relaxed look: “Sorry, your illusion doesn’t work on me.”
He dusted himself off, turned and walked towards the examiner, leaving his opponent alone in the wind.
In the final comprehensive assessment, the examiner announced the rules: “This assessment will be conducted in a team-based free-for-all format. Now, please form your own teams.”
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was in an uproar.
“Team fight? This is too bad!”
“How can we form a team? What if our teammates are terrible?”
The candidates started talking among themselves and frantically looked for their teammates.
However, Ye Liangchen stood there, motionless, as if he did not hear what the examiner said.
“Ye Liangchen, why don’t you go find your teammates quickly?” Inuzuka Kiba urged anxiously.
Ye Liangchen glanced at him and said lightly: “No need, I am enough.”
When these words were spoken, everyone in the audience was shocked.
“Fuck! Is this kid crazy? He wants to challenge everyone by himself?”
“This is too arrogant! Who does he think he is?”
Everyone looked at Ye Liangchen with contempt, thinking that he was seeking his own death.
Even Kakashi couldn’t help but frown: “This kid is too reckless.”
However, Ye Liangchen ignored everyone’s gazes and continued to stand there with a calm look on his face.
“Hmph, since you want to die so badly, don’t blame me for being rude!” Inuzuka Kiba snorted coldly, turned around and teamed up with the other candidates.
The other candidates also found their teammates, leaving Ye Liangchen alone standing there.
“The melee begins!”
With the examiner’s order, the battle was about to begin.
The corners of Ye Liangchen’s mouth slightly raised, revealing a wicked smile: “Hehe, this is what I want, solo experience, hehehe…”
He slowly raised his right hand, and a powerful chakra wave emanated from his body…
[Super God-level Talent (Each normal attack permanently increases the chakra value by one point, and normal attacks cause true damage of 1% of the maximum chakra value of the self)]This golden finger is really good!
When the horn signaling the start of the melee was blown, it was like stirring up a hornet’s nest, and the candidates instantly became a mess.
Ye Liangchen, however, acted as if nothing had happened, with his hands in his pockets, looking relaxed and saying “please do whatever you want”.
“This guy is too pretentious!” Inuzuka Kiba spat and rushed towards another group with Akamaru.
Other candidates also started fighting one after another. For a while, the training ground was filled with flying dust and the shouts of killing were deafening.
Ye Liangchen was like a nimble loach, moving freely among the crowd.
He aimed at a team of three, dodged the shuriken with a sliding tackle, and stood up and knocked down one of them with a punch.
Then, he slapped another person on the chest with his backhand, and that person flew out with a “wow” and hit the third teammate perfectly.
“Beautiful!” The onlookers couldn’t help but cheer.
This isn’t a fight between Genin, it’s simply a duel between masters!
“This kid is quite something.” Kakashi touched his chin and watched Ye Liangchen’s performance with interest.
As the battle progressed, the chakra in Ye Liangchen’s body accumulated more and more, and each of his normal attacks was like a small cannon, extremely powerful.
Those Genin who originally looked down on him have now become his defeated opponents and are lying on the ground wailing.
“That’s it? That’s it?” Ye Liangchen rubbed his wrist and shook his head, just like an old cadre inspecting work.
However, the good times did not last long.
Several unwilling Genin secretly united together and prepared to give Ye Liangchen a “surprise”.
They lay in ambush in the dark, and when Ye Liangchen passed by, they suddenly attacked from all directions.
“Hmph, a mere trifle.” Ye Liangchen sneered and dodged most of the attacks.
But his sleeve was still cut by a shuriken.
“Oh, you’re pretty tenacious.” A Genin said sarcastically, “Looks like we have to show our real skills!”
Ye Liangchen’s eyes flashed, it seemed these guys were serious.
He took a deep breath and assumed a fighting stance: “Come on, let me see what you are really capable of!” He rushed towards one of them, as fast as a flash of lightning…
“You think you can beat me like this?”
Ye Liangchen did a roundhouse kick, kicking the guy in front of him far away, knocking him down like a bowling ball.
He clapped his hands, blew away the non-existent dust, and looked relaxed.
But at this moment, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye – Hyuga Hinata.
The little girl hid behind the crowd, her face flushed, her hands twisted nervously, and her eyes full of worry.
That conflicted little expression was very similar to himself when he wanted to copy answers during an exam but didn’t dare to. Ye Liangchen felt warmed by seeing it.
“This little girl really cares about me.” He thought happily in his heart, but his hands did not slow down at all. He threw a set of “turtle punches” with great vigor. His opponents cried for their parents and surrendered one after another.
Just when he was about to win a great victory, Ye Liangchen suddenly noticed something strange.
The examiners’ excited expressions suddenly turned serious, even with a hint of…
disturbed?
Ye Liangchen’s heart skipped a beat, and a bad premonition came to his mind.
Is there something fishy going on here?
He narrowed his eyes and carefully observed the examiners’ expressions. Sure enough, he found that their eyes were always avoiding him, as if they were hiding something from him.
A surge of anger suddenly rose up in Ye Liangchen’s stomach. He felt as if he had worked so hard to type out some words, only to find that the upload failed. How frustrating!
“What the hell is going on? Are you guys hiding something from me?” Ye Liangchen asked in a bad tone. The atmosphere at the scene instantly froze and the air was filled with gunpowder.
Just as he was about to have a good argument with the examiners, suddenly, there was a commotion in the village, breaking the tranquility of the training ground.
The sound came closer and closer, becoming clearer and clearer, like…
Screams?
The selection examiner’s face changed drastically and he shouted, “Oh no! Something’s happening!” The selection was forced to be interrupted, and the examiners drew their weapons one after another, as if facing a great enemy.
Ye Liangchen’s heart tightened, and an ominous premonition enveloped him.
He turned his head sharply and looked towards the village.
“What’s going on? What happened?” A ninja ran over in a panic and reported.
“The village…the village was attacked!”
006. You talk too much nonsense (old version)
[Please collect it! Guys, please point your finger at me. ]“The village…the village was attacked!” The ninja who reported the news was out of breath, his face was pale, and he couldn’t speak coherently.
Ye Liangchen’s heart skipped a beat. Attack? What’s going on? Isn’t this selection too big?
“What the hell is this!” He cursed, not caring about the selection anymore, and rushed towards the village.
Are you kidding? If the village is gone, what’s the point of his selection?
He wants to be the man who protects the village!
Seeing this, others followed suit.
Hinata Hyuga looked at Ye Liangchen’s back with a worried look on her face, her little fists clenched tightly.
Haruno Sakura curled her lips and muttered quietly: “What kind of hero is this…”
Ye Liangchen was very fast, like a gust of wind, and arrived at the scene in the blink of an eye.
The sight before him made him gasp.
The once bustling streets were now in ruins, houses collapsed, flames shot into the sky, and the air was filled with a pungent burnt smell.
A man in black clothes and a hideous mask on his face was wantonly destroying everything around him.
He was wielding a sharp kunai in his hand, and every time he swung it, it brought up a gust of fierce wind, cutting the surrounding buildings into pieces.
“Traitor ninja?!” Ye Liangchen recognized the other party’s identity at a glance.
This guy is too cruel! He is simply insane!
Without thinking too much, Ye Liangchen rushed forward immediately.
“Stop!” he shouted and punched the rebel ninja.
The rebel ninja sneered, glanced at Ye Liangchen with contempt, and blocked it with his hand.
“You don’t know your own limitations!”
A powerful force came, Ye Liangchen only felt his arm go numb, and he was knocked back several steps.
“Fuck, this guy is something…” Ye Liangchen rubbed his numb arm and said to himself.
But he was not afraid at all, instead he became even more excited.
“That’s interesting!”
Ye Liangchen took a deep breath, mobilized the chakra in his body, and rushed forward again.
This time, his attack was even more fierce, and each punch was accompanied by a whistling sound, as if it was going to tear the air apart.
The rebel ninja obviously also felt Ye Liangchen’s seriousness. He did not dare to underestimate him anymore and began to deal with him seriously.
The two men fought back and forth, punching and kicking each other, and a fierce fight broke out in an instant.
Every collision made a deafening sound, and the surrounding buildings were shaken to the point of collapse.
Ye Liangchen’s attacks became more and more fierce, and each punch contained tremendous power, as if he wanted to crush the rebel ninja completely.
The rebel ninja gradually felt the pressure, and his movements began to become slow.
“Damn you little brat…” the rebel ninja gnashed his teeth and said, “Your strength is actually…”
Before he could finish his words, Ye Liangchen’s fist hit him hard in the face.
“Shut up!” Ye Liangchen snorted coldly, “You talk too much nonsense!”
He swung his fist again, hitting the rebel ninja in the abdomen.
“Ugh…” The rebel ninja groaned and his body suddenly arched.
“With this little strength, you dare to come out and embarrass yourself?” Ye Liangchen said disdainfully, “You still…”
He suddenly stopped, looked into the distance, and a strange smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
“It seems that someone is coming to get killed…”
Ye Liangchen’s fists fell like raindrops, and each punch was accompanied by a whistling sound, as if to tear the air apart.
The muffled sound of “bang bang bang” continued to be heard. The rebel ninja was beaten back again and again, with a swollen nose and face, and blood oozing from the corners of his mouth.
“Oh my god! This kid’s attack power is too abnormal!” The surrounding ninjas were stunned and their jaws almost dropped to the ground.
“Every normal attack increases chakra and can also cause real damage. This is simply a loophole!” someone exclaimed.
The rebel ninja was even more horrified. He could never have imagined that a Genin could possess such terrifying strength.
“This little brat…what kind of monster is this?!”
Ye Liangchen became more and more excited as the fight went on, and he felt full of strength.
“With your limited ability, you dare to come out and embarrass yourself?” He mocked, “You should just go home and take a shower!”
“Bang!” Ye Liangchen punched out, directly knocking the rebel ninja away. He fell heavily to the ground, creating a big hole.
At this moment, several high-ranking figures of Konoha appeared in front of everyone.
Their faces were gloomy and they stared at Ye Liangchen with unfriendly eyes.
“Ye Liangchen, stop it!” one of the senior executives shouted, “You’re only going to make things worse!”
“Making a big fuss?” Ye Liangchen sneered, “These traitorous ninjas have come to the village to kill us, do you expect me to just stand by and watch?”
“You…” The high-ranking official was so angry that his face turned blue. “You are just a Genin, what qualifications do you have to give orders here!”
“Qualification?” Ye Liangchen raised his lips in disdain. “My qualification is that I can beat him!”
“How dare you!” the top leader roared, “You are challenging Konoha’s authority!”
“Authority?” Ye Liangchen shrugged. “I only know that it is my responsibility to protect the village!”
He ignored the higher-ups and turned towards the dying rebel ninja.
“Now, it’s time to settle our accounts!”
Suddenly, a soft voice came from the crowd: “Ye Liangchen Jun…”
It was Hinata’s voice, slightly trembling and full of worry.
When Ye Liangchen heard the voice and turned around, he saw Hinata struggling to push through the crowd, with beads of sweat oozing from her forehead.
She also held a few scrolls in her hands that looked like some kind of medical ninjutsu.
Although her movements were a little clumsy, she stood out in the chaotic battlefield.
“Why are you here? It’s very dangerous here!” Ye Liangchen frowned slightly, with a hint of blame in his tone, but more of concern.
“I… I’m worried about you…” Hinata lowered her head, her voice as thin as a mosquito, and her cheeks flushed.
“Silly girl.” Ye Liangchen felt warm in his heart. This little girl was so adorable.
He grinned, revealing his white teeth, “Don’t worry, I’m going to be the Hokage, this little scene is nothing!”
Ye Liangchen did not say anything definite. He knew that there was still a big gap between his strength and that of a shadow level person, but he still had to be tough in words.
After saying that, he fixed his gaze on the rebel ninja again.
At this time, the rebel ninja was already at the end of his strength. He staggered to his feet.
“It’s over.” Ye Liangchen whispered, mobilizing the chakra in his body and punching the rebel ninja directly in the chest.
“Puff!” The rebel ninja spat out a mouthful of blood, and his body flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, completely losing his combat effectiveness.
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for defeating the rebel ninja and obtaining a chakra value of +100!” The system’s prompt sounded in Ye Liangchen’s mind.
Ye Liangchen had no time to pay attention to the system’s reward. Instead, he looked around and found that the Konoha ninjas were all looking at him in shock, as if he were a monster.
“Fuck, is this kid cheating?”
“One Punch Man? Am I seeing things?”
“Is this still a Genin? I feel like all these years of training have been in vain!”
There were discussions one after another, but Ye Liangchen turned a deaf ear to them. He swept his eyes over the Konoha’s high-level officials and a disdainful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
These guys were arrogantly accusing him just now, but now they have shut up obediently?
Just then, Shizune ran over with the medical ninjas and began treating the injured ninja.
Asma and Hong also came over. They looked at Ye Liangchen with complicated eyes, as if they could see through him.
“You kid, you really deserve attention.” Asma patted Ye Liangchen on the shoulder with a hint of appreciation in his tone.
Hong also nodded in approval: “You are excellent. You have made an indelible contribution to this incident.”
The attitude of the Konoha high-level officials also changed. They no longer pursued Ye Liangchen’s disobedience of orders. Instead, they highly praised his performance in defeating the rebel ninja.
Ye Liangchen was secretly happy in his heart. These people changed their expressions so quickly!
007. A bunch of rotten fish and shrimp, also want to make a comeback? (Old version)
Shizune ran over with the medical ninjas and began treating the injured ninjas, bandages flying and a strong smell of medicine filled the air.
Ye Liangchen sniffed and smelled the smell of disinfectant, which reminded him of his experience in the hospital. He thought to himself, “Fortunately, my buddy is in good health now and doesn’t have to lie there.”
Asma and Hong walked over, looking at Ye Liangchen with complicated eyes, as if they could see through him.
Ye Liangchen met their gaze with a confident smile on his face.
He turned around and went back to the selection venue, and found that everyone’s eyes were focused on him, with awe, envy, and jealousy.
Hyuga Hinata’s cheeks are red
The atmosphere became subtle. Ye Liangchen’s appearance was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.
There was a sense of tension in the air, like the calm before the storm.
When the remaining opponents saw how powerful Ye Liangchen was, they exchanged glances with each other and decided to unite to deal with him.
“Hmph, don’t get complacent too soon!” A burly ninja glared at Ye Liangchen fiercely and whispered, “Let’s go together. I don’t believe we can’t beat him!”
“That’s right!” another ninja agreed, “No matter how strong he is, he can’t take on all of us at the same time!”
Ye Liangchen looked at them, his mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a disdainful smile: “That’s it? A bunch of rabble, you want to make trouble? Come on, let me show you what real power is!”
He took a deep breath and clenched his fists, and golden chakra surged through his body like a burning flame, illuminating the entire venue.
“Come on!” Ye Liangchen roared and rushed into the enemy camp.
“Go!” The opponents also showed their weapons and rushed towards Ye Liangchen…
“That’s all? A bunch of scumbags, you want to turn the tables?” Ye Liangchen sneered, his figure moving through the crowd like a ghost. Every time he swung his fist, there was a whistling sound, and every punch hit the flesh, making his opponents cry for their parents.
“Bang!” A ninja was knocked away by Ye Liangchen’s punch and fell heavily to the ground, spitting blood, seeing stars, and feeling that all his internal organs were displaced.
“Ah!” Another ninja was kicked in the abdomen by Ye Liangchen. He fell to the ground in pain, holding his stomach. His face was pale and cold sweat was pouring down his face. He felt like he was hit by a running rhinoceros.
Ye Liangchen’s attacks poured down like a storm, and his opponents were unable to resist at all and could only passively take the beating.
They originally thought that they could defeat Ye Liangchen by joining forces, but they didn’t expect to be beaten by him alone. They were like a group of lambs to be slaughtered.
The ninjas watching around were all stunned. They had never seen such a powerful Genin. It was as if he was cheating.
“Fuck! This kid is too fierce!”
“Is he really a Genin? Why do I feel like he’s more powerful than a Jonin?”
“This is outrageous! He fought against a group of people alone, and he had the upper hand!”
Hinata Hyuga looked at Ye Liangchen’s heroic figure, her face flushed, her eyes full of admiration, and she thought to herself: “Ye Liangchen-kun, you are so awesome!”
Li Luoke clenched his fists, his eyes burning with fighting spirit, and thought to himself: “I want to be as strong as Ye Liangchen!”
Tiantian held his chin up and looked at Ye Liangchen with interest, thinking to himself, “This guy is getting more and more interesting.”
Just when Ye Liangchen had beaten his opponents so badly that they had no chance to fight back, a Genin suddenly formed a seal and chanted, “Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!”
A huge fireball shot out from his mouth and whizzed towards Ye Liangchen. The scorching temperature caused the surrounding air to distort.
Seeing this, Ye Liangchen’s face changed slightly and he quickly dodged backwards.
The fireball flew past his body and burned a large area of the ground.
“Phew…that was close!” Ye Liangchen breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself, “This kid’s ninjutsu is quite powerful. We have to be careful.”
He took a deep breath, his eyes became sharp, and the chakra in his body surged wildly.
“Want to defeat me with ninjutsu? Not that easy!” Ye Liangchen sneered, his figure flashed, and disappeared on the spot.
Upon seeing this, the opponents’ faces changed drastically and they looked around hurriedly, trying to find Ye Liangchen.
“Where is he?”
“Be careful! He might be…”
Before a ninja could finish his words, he suddenly felt a powerful force coming from behind.
“Bang!”
He was knocked away by a punch, fell heavily to the ground and lost consciousness.
Ye Liangchen’s figure appeared behind another ninja, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing an evil smile.
“Next!”
Before Ye Liangchen finished speaking, his figure had already disappeared from the spot.
Before the opponents could react, they saw Ye Liangchen appear behind them in a flash.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
A series of muffled sounds were heard, and the opponents flew out like kites with broken strings, falling heavily to the ground, with wailing sounds one after another.
“Fuck! This is too fast!”
“It’s like teleportation!”
“What kind of monster is this kid!”
The surrounding ninjas were all stunned, dumbfounded, unable to believe their eyes.
Ye Liangchen stood in the center of the field, brushed off the dust on his body, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile.
“That’s all? You still want to challenge me? You are simply overestimating yourself!”
He looked around and saw his opponents lying on the ground, either unconscious or groaning in pain. No one dared to challenge him anymore.
“Ye Liangchen! You are so awesome!”
“You are simply our idol!”
“You are the real strong one!”
The surrounding ninjas cheered and surrounded Ye Liangchen.
Ye Liangchen enjoyed the cheers of the crowd and felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart.
This feeling is sweeter than eating honey!
Just then, a petite figure squeezed out from the crowd and came in front of Ye Liangchen.
“Ye Liangchen, are you okay?”
Hinata Hyuga looked at Ye Liangchen with worry on her face, holding a white handkerchief in her hand.
“It’s okay, just a minor injury.” Ye Liangchen took the handkerchief with a smile and gently wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Their eyes met, and an ambiguous atmosphere filled the air.
“Wow!”
“Together! Together!”
The ninjas around who were eager to watch the fun started to make a noise, and the atmosphere became even more heated.
Hyuga Hinata’s little face turned red and she lowered her head shyly.
Ye Liangchen looked at her shy appearance and his heart couldn’t help but move.
At this moment, Ye Liangchen suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure in the distance.
How come he is here?
008. Stop talking nonsense and take the challenge! (Old version)
Is it Po?!
Ye Liangchen’s eyes, like a falcon locking onto its prey, were fixed on the direction where Dou disappeared.
That guy is sneaky and definitely not a good person!
He smelled a hint of conspiracy, and a feeling of impending storm came over him.
Konoha Village, the place he decided to protect, he would never allow any scum to cause trouble here!
“No, I have to go and take a look!” Ye Liangchen muttered to himself. He felt like he had the “protagonist halo” and always encountered some difficult things, but this also indirectly proved the meaning of his existence. He would not allow anyone to destroy this beauty.
He patted Hinata’s shoulder gently, gave her a look that said “I’m fine, don’t worry”, and then disappeared into the crowd like a gust of wind.
Hinata, blushing as an apple, was left standing there, along with a bunch of onlookers who were making a fuss.
Ye Liangchen rushed all the way to the secret base of the Anbu.
He knew that an old scoundrel like Dou would definitely not go there for no reason.
However, things did not go as smoothly as expected. When he approached the stronghold, several Anbu ninjas in black uniforms suddenly appeared like ghosts and blocked his way.
“Stop! This is a restricted area, no outsiders are allowed to approach!” An Anbu ninja wearing a cat-face mask spoke in a cold voice with unquestionable majesty in his tone.
“I’m Ye Liangchen, a Genin who just participated in the Chunin selection. I suspect someone is plotting something bad here!” Ye Liangchen’s eyes were sharp and his tone was firm, neither humble nor arrogant.
He is no longer the young man who just traveled through time and knew nothing about the world of Naruto. He knows that now is not the time to be cowardly!
“Hmph! Chunin selection? Genin? Ridiculous. We have received orders that no one is allowed to approach this place. Please leave immediately, otherwise, don’t blame us for being rude!” Another Anbu ninja wearing a dog-faced mask directly showed the kunai in his hand, which flashed with silver light and was chilling.
Ye Liangchen frowned. It was obvious that they didn’t want him to interfere.
There must be something fishy going on here!
He took a deep breath and felt the chakra surging in his body. It was the proof of his hard work and the source of his strength!
He decided that he must not retreat, in order to protect Konoha and for the responsibility in his heart!
“Are you sure you want to stop me?” Ye Liangchen’s voice was low and powerful, like a volcano about to erupt, containing amazing energy.
His eyes were like two sharp blades, piercing the other person’s heart.
“This is an order!” the cat-faced ninja responded coldly, his tone not wavering at all.
“Really?” Ye Liangchen’s mouth corners slightly raised, forming a dangerous arc.
“Then, are you ready to bear my wrath?” He took a step forward, his feet seemed to take root, carrying an irresistible pressure.
The air around them seemed to be frozen. The atmosphere was tense and a war was about to break out.
“Don’t force me to do it!” Ye Liangchen’s voice was not loud, but it carried an unquestionable majesty, sounding like thunder in everyone’s ears.
He crossed his arms across his chest, with an air of contempt, as if he were a king who ruled the world, looking down at the ants in front of him.
The Anbu ninjas looked at each other. They all felt the powerful aura emanating from Ye Liangchen, a kind of murderous aura that could only be possessed after experiencing a life-and-death battle.
They thought of Ye Liangchen’s amazing performance in the trials and his bold words “No one can beat me with my background music!” and their hearts couldn’t help but beat nervously.
“This kid is really not easy to deal with!” The cat-faced ninja muttered to himself, his hand holding the kunai trembling slightly.
“What? Are you scared?” Ye Liangchen raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing an evil smile.
“Hmph! We are just following orders!” the dog-faced ninja said stubbornly, but his tone was obviously weaker.
“Following orders? I think you are being used as a gun!” Ye Liangchen’s tone was cold, his eyes were as sharp as knives, “If you know what’s good for you, get out of the way quickly, otherwise, you will bear the consequences!”
The Anbu ninjas hesitated. They knew that Ye Liangchen’s strength should not be underestimated, and he had the support of the Hokage behind him.
If they really come to blows, they may not get any benefits.
“Okay! We’ll let you pass!” The cat-faced ninja finally compromised.
“That’s right!” Ye Liangchen nodded with satisfaction, then swaggered into the Anbu stronghold.
The ninjas around were all stunned. They didn’t expect that a Genin would dare to be so arrogant and actually succeed!
“This kid is such a ruthless character!” exclaimed a ninja.
“Yeah, we shouldn’t provoke him easily in the future!” another ninja echoed.
Ye Liangchen had a smooth journey and finally found Dou’s figure deep in the stronghold.
Kabuto no longer hid and launched an attack directly.
“Haha, it seems you have discovered my secret.” Dou laughed coldly.
“Stop talking nonsense and take it!” Ye Liangchen didn’t waste any words and went straight up to him.
Dou’s attack was insidious and cunning, as tricky as a poisonous snake, and Ye Liangchen found it difficult to resist at first.
But he quickly adjusted his state, using the golden finger to accumulate chakra, and at the same time dodged Kabuto’s attacks with his agile body.
The surrounding trees were knocked down by the attack, deep pits appeared on the ground, and the air was filled with tension.
Ye Liangchen dodged while accumulating chakra, his eyes became sharper and sharper, like a beast ready to pounce.
“Is that all you are capable of?” Ye Liangchen sneered, “It seems that you overestimate yourself!”
Dou’s face changed. He didn’t expect Ye Liangchen to be so difficult to deal with.
“Don’t be too proud!” Dou said gritting his teeth, “The real show has just begun!” Before Dou finished speaking, Ye Liangchen moved.
I saw his figure flash, and he rushed towards Dou as fast as lightning, so fast that it left a trail of afterimage.
The surrounding air seemed to be torn apart by this speed, making a hissing sound.
“Bang!” With a dull sound, Ye Liangchen’s fist hit Dou’s chest hard.
Dou only felt a huge force coming, and his internal organs seemed to shift. His throat felt sweet and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
“Haha, that’s all?” Ye Liangchen curled his lips in disdain, “I thought you were so powerful, but you’re nothing special!”
Dou was stunned by Ye Liangchen’s sudden attack. He covered his chest and looked at the seemingly thin Genin in front of him in disbelief.
He could never have imagined that this Genin’s power was so strong!
What’s even more terrifying is that the pain that penetrates deep into the bone marrow is not an ordinary physical attack at all!
Damn, what kind of monster is this kid!
Ye Liangchen would not give Dou a chance to breathe. He rushed forward again, punching and kicking him like raindrops. Each blow was accompanied by powerful chakra and that strange real injury effect.
Dou was beaten so badly that he had no power to fight back and could only dodge in a panic.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!” A series of attack sounds resounded throughout the stronghold. New scars continued to appear on Dou’s body, and blood stained his clothes red.
His face became paler and paler, his breathing became rapid, and his eyes were full of fear.
He realized that he was no match for this Genin!
Hinata, who was hiding in the dark, saw Ye Liangchen being so brave and her eyes were full of admiration.
She clenched her little hands tightly together, and silently cheered for Ye Liangchen in her heart.
Ye Liangchen’s heroic fighting image was deeply imprinted in her mind, and she could not forget it for a long time.
Ye Liangchen was fighting fiercely when he suddenly felt someone behind him. He turned around and saw it was Hinata!
He gave her a confident smile, and Hinata’s face instantly turned red to her ears, like a ripe apple.
There seemed to be an electric current passing between the two of them, and the air was filled with an ambiguous smell.
At this moment, a long “Woo–” sound pierced the night sky, and the alarm of Konoha Village suddenly sounded!
The sudden alarm made Ye Liangchen’s heart sink.
He realized that things were much more complicated than he had imagined!
“Damn it!” Ye Liangchen cursed, “Looks like we’re in trouble again!” He turned to look at Hinata, his eyes full of worry, “Find a safe place to hide first!”
“What about you?” Hinata asked with concern.
“I’ll go see what’s going on!” Ye Liangchen said, and rushed out without looking back.
“Wait for me!” Hinata was about to follow, but was stopped by Ye Liangchen, “Be obedient! It’s dangerous now!”
“But…” Hinata wanted to say something, but Ye Liangchen had already disappeared.
“Be sure to be careful!” Hinata looked in the direction where Ye Liangchen left, her heart full of worry.
“What is this? Konoha’s alarm… Could it be…”
Dou covered his chest and stood up with difficulty, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, “It seems that the game has begun…”
009. Why stop me? (Old version)
The alarm tore through the tranquility of the night, sharp and piercing, like the roar of a wild beast.
Ye Liangchen’s heart tightened, and a chill ran from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
Without any hesitation, he rushed towards the center of the village like an arrow, so fast that only a shadow could be seen.
When he arrived at the village’s central square, the sight before him made him furious.
A group of rebel ninjas dressed in black and wearing masks are wantonly destroying the Leaf Village.
Houses collapsed, flames shot up into the sky, and the villagers fled in panic. Cries and screams could be heard one after another, like hell on earth.
“These damn bastards!” Ye Liangchen gritted his teeth and his fists creaked.
Protecting the villagers is his duty as a Konoha ninja, and it is also his deepest belief.
He rushed into the enemy camp without hesitation, like a tiger descending from the mountain, and every punch and kick was carried with the force of thunder.
The rebel ninjas obviously underestimated this seemingly ordinary Genin and were caught off guard, wailing in disbelief.
“That’s it? That’s it?” Ye Liangchen taunted as he fought, “You bunch of noobs, you dare to come to Konoha and act wild? You are here to make fun of me!”
However, as the battle progressed, Ye Liangchen gradually realized something was wrong.
The Konoha high-ranking officials, those big guys who are usually high and mighty, are now standing by and watching, as if it has nothing to do with them.
Their eyes flickered, as if they were deliberately avoiding something.
“What kind of plane is this?” Ye Liangchen was puzzled. “Is there something fishy going on?”
This feeling of being isolated and helpless made him feel extremely depressed.
He was like a trapped beast in an invisible cage, surrounded by hostility and suspicion.
“Ye Liangchen, you did a good job.” A deep voice came from behind. Ye Liangchen turned around suddenly and saw a masked Anbu ninja appear in front of him.
“But…” The Anbu ninja paused, his tone becoming serious, “There are some things you’d better not know too much about…”
“There are some things you’d better not know too much about…” The words of the Anbu ninja were like a thorn, piercing Ye Liangchen’s heart.
What does it mean not to know too much?
Is there some conspiracy behind this?
cut!
Who cares about his conspiracy!
When enemies come, we will stop them; when water comes, we will block it with earth!
Ye Liangchen was not someone who could be frightened.
He snorted coldly, his eyes were like torches, he scanned the surrounding rebels, and the corners of his mouth curled up with a hint of disdain, “Just relying on you rotten fish and shrimp, you think you can show off your skills in front of me? You really overestimate your own abilities!”
He had nimble steps and moved among the enemies like a ghost. Each of his punches was accompanied by a whistling sound of the wind and each of his kicks contained powerful chakra.
The rebellious ninjas were beaten by him until they cried for their parents and ran away in panic. The scene was very funny for a while.
“Good job! Ye Liangchen!” Someone shouted, and the surrounding villagers also cheered for him.
“Come on, Ye Liangchen! Beat these bastards to death!”
The shouts of the villagers were like a warm current, flowing into Ye Liangchen’s heart.
He felt full of strength, as if he had endless energy.
He is like a tiger rushing down the mountain, unstoppable!
However, the rebel ninjas are not pushovers either.
Seeing Ye Liangchen so brave, they began to panic.
Several rebel ninja leaders exchanged glances and decided to work together to perform a large-scale ninjutsu to capture Ye Liangchen in one fell swoop.
“Earth Style: Earth Dragon Bullet!”
“Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet!”
“Wind Style: Rasenshuriken!”
The three different ninjutsu merged together to form a powerful energy vortex that swept towards Ye Liangchen.
The air around Ye Liangchen seemed to be compressed. He had difficulty breathing and felt as if a huge rock was pressing on his chest.
But he didn’t panic.
The more dangerous the moment, the calmer he becomes.
He stared closely at the energy vortex, his brain working rapidly, looking for a way to deal with it.
“You want to use this little trick to deal with me? You underestimate me too much!” Ye Liangchen showed a cold smile, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, “Next, I will let you see what real power is!”
He took a deep breath and slowly raised his right hand…
“It’s time to show some real skills!”
Ye Liangchen took a deep breath, the chakra in his dantian surged wildly, and his meridians roared like a rushing river.
He slowly raised his right hand, and a dazzling blue light suddenly bloomed in his palm, illuminating the entire night sky.
“Rasengan!”
no!
This thing costs too much mana!
Ye Liangchen quickly rejected this idea.
Now is not the time to show off, we have to resolve the battle in the most effective way.
A sly smile appeared on his lips.
I saw his figure flash, and he shuttled among the enemy groups like a ghost. Every time he swung a punch, there was a crisp “ding” sound, which was the sound of his golden finger being triggered.
Every attack will permanently increase his chakra value by one point, and at the same time cause true damage to the enemy based on 1% of his maximum chakra value.
“Ding! Ding! Ding!”
The crisp prompt sound continued to ring, and Ye Liangchen’s chakra value soared like a rocket.
“That’s it? That’s it? Are you just trying to tickle me?” Ye Liangchen mocked as he fought, “You bunch of noobs, you dare to come to Konoha and act wild? You are here to make fun of me!”
The rebellious ninjas were beaten by him until they cried for their parents and ran away in panic.
The large-scale ninjutsu performed by several rebel ninja leaders was also blocked by Ye Liangchen.
He is like an indestructible wall. No matter how fierce the wind and rain are, they cannot shake him at all.
“This… How is this possible?!” The rebel ninja leaders were horrified and looked at the seemingly ordinary Genin in front of them in disbelief.
With a loud bang, the energy vortex collapsed instantly, and the violent energy spread out, razing the surrounding houses to the ground.
Several rebel leaders were also blown away by this powerful force, spitting blood and dying.
“I’ve told you all, you bunch of noobs don’t know your own limitations!” Ye Liangchen dusted himself off and stood majestically among the ruins, like a descending god of war.
Just then, a petite figure rushed over and hugged Ye Liangchen.
“Ye Liangchen, are you okay?” Hyuga Hinata’s voice trembled slightly, and her eyes were full of concern.
Ye Liangchen was moved when he saw Hinata’s bravery.
He patted Hinata’s back gently and said softly, “I’m fine, Hinata, thank you.”
The relationship between the two further heated up in the midst of danger, and a hint of sweetness filled the air.
However, at this warm moment, a cold voice broke the silence.
“Ye Liangchen, the Hokage has ordered that the fighting stop immediately!” A masked Anbu ninja appeared in front of Ye Liangchen, his tone unquestionable.
Ye Liangchen looked at the person who came, his brows furrowed, his heart full of doubts.
“Why? Why are you stopping me?”
010. Obey orders? Why? (Old version)
Under the cold mask of the Anbu ninja, an emotionless voice came out: “Hokage-sama has his own arrangements, you just need to obey his orders.”
“Obey orders? Why? I fought desperately to defeat these rebellious ninjas, and you want me to stop with just one word ‘obey orders’? I want an explanation!” Ye Liangchen was furious. What was this?
Kill the donkey after it has done its job?
Demolish the bridge after crossing it?
He is not a soft persimmon that can be bullied by anyone.
The Anbu ninja remained unmoved: “Hokage’s orders cannot be questioned.”
“Fuck the order!” Ye Liangchen’s indignation erupted like a volcano. He was not the kind of obedient ninja who would obey orders submissively. “You want me to stop without any explanation. Who do you think I am? I’m going to make it clear today. I will never stop until you make it clear!”
The Anbu ninja didn’t seem to expect Ye Liangchen to be so tough, and his tone softened a little: “The situation is complicated, it is not convenient to disclose it now, please cooperate.”
“Cooperate? I won’t cooperate with you!” Ye Liangchen wouldn’t fall for it. It sounded so high-sounding, but who knew what was hidden behind it?
“I tell you, this matter is not over today!” He lifted the strands of hair in front of his forehead, his eyes revealing a determined light. He wanted to break this damn obstacle!
“You won’t let me fight, but I will!” Ye Liangchen shouted, his chakra surged again, and a dazzling light condensed in his hand, pointing directly at the rebel ninja who was still struggling to survive not far away, “You think you can stop me like this? Naive! Today, I will let you see what real power is!”
“Stop!” The Anbu ninja wanted to stop him, but Ye Liangchen had already rushed out, as fast as a flash of lightning, leaving only a domineering voice echoing in the air…
“Good times will win!”
Ye Liangchen is like a tiger coming down the mountain, unstoppable!
His figure flashed as fast as the wind, and every move he made was carried with the force of thunder.
The rebel ninjas were like paper tigers in front of him and could not withstand a single blow.
“Bang!” A rebel ninja was kicked away by Ye Liangchen and hit a big tree. He vomited blood, saw stars, and fainted.
“That’s all?” Ye Liangchen curled his lips in disdain. This fighting power was simply too weak!
“Swish, swish, swish!” Kunai shot towards Ye Liangchen like raindrops. He dodged them easily and caught a few of them, throwing them back with his backhand.
“You dare to show off your skills in front of an expert?” The kunai accurately hit several rebellious ninjas, making them lose their fighting power instantly.
“Ahhh! This kid is too strong!” The rebel ninjas cried for their parents and fled everywhere, wishing their parents had given them two more legs.
Ye Liangchen sneered: “Want to run? Too late!” He chased after them, using both fists and feet, and knocked the rebel ninjas to the ground one by one like autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves.
“You’re so awesome, my brother!” The surrounding Konoha villagers burst into thunderous applause and cheers. They had never seen such a powerful Genin. He was simply the light of Konoha!
“Ye Liangchen! Ye Liangchen!” The villagers shouted his name as if he was their hero.
The last rebel leader saw that the situation was not good and knew that he was no match for Ye Liangchen, so he made a desperate move and used a trick to kill both of them – “Forbidden Technique: Self-destruction!”
“Want to die with me? You are not worthy!” Ye Liangchen raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a scornful smile.
He disappeared from the spot in an instant and appeared behind the rebel ninja leader the next second.
“Super Rasengan!” Ye Liangchen condensed all the chakra in his body, forming a high-speed rotating chakra ball in his hand, and smashed it hard at the rebel leader.
“Boom!” With a loud bang, the rebel ninja leader was blown away, and everything around him was shaken, with dust flying everywhere, covering the sky and the sun.
When the dust settled, a huge hole appeared on the ground, and the rebel leader was nowhere to be seen.
Ye Liangchen stood on the ruins, brushed off the dust on his body, his eyes were sharp and domineering.
“Who else?” He looked around as if declaring his victory.
Suddenly, a voice came from the ruins: “Ahem…you…you are very strong…”
Ye Liangchen frowned and slowly walked towards the direction where the voice came from. “You are not dead yet?”
“I…I have one last question…” the voice said weakly.
“explain.”
“You…you…what kind of monster are you…”
“Come, let me tell you…” Ye Liangchen leaned close to his ear and yelled, “I! Am! Your! Father!”
When the dust settled, Ye Liangchen stood proudly, like a god descending from heaven.
The Konoha high-ranking officials almost dropped their jaws to the ground. How could this be called a Genin?
With this fighting power, it’s no exaggeration to say that he is at the Kage level!
The Third Hokage stroked his beard, with a glimmer of admiration in his eyes: “Ye Liangchen, your performance this time, ahem, was quite outstanding, yes, very outstanding! Konoha Village needs talents like you!”
Other senior executives also echoed the sentiment. Their previous doubts and obstructions towards Ye Liangchen now turned into flattery, which almost made Ye Liangchen feel proud.
“In view of your outstanding contribution this time, the Konoha high-level officials have unanimously decided to allow you to take part in the Chunin Special Examination!” The Third Hokage announced the final decision with a hint of excitement in his tone that was difficult to conceal.
“Yes! I can finally take part in the Chunin Special Exam!” Ye Liangchen clenched his fists, his heart filled with excitement. He was one step closer to his goal!
Just at this moment, a petite figure came running and dived into Ye Liangchen’s arms.
“Mr. Ye Liangchen, you are so awesome!” Hyuga Hinata hugged Ye Liangchen tightly, her little face flushed, and her voice as thin as a mosquito.
Ye Liangchen also hugged Hinata tightly, feeling the soft touch in his arms, and his heart was warm.
The surrounding ninjas started to make noises and whistle. This dog food was thrown out so suddenly that they were caught off guard.
Even Kakashi, who was always serious, couldn’t help but smile.
“Ahem, pay attention to the impact, pay attention to the impact.”
The Third Hokage coughed twice to remind everyone to pay attention to the occasion.
Ye Liangchen and Hinata finally reacted and separated awkwardly.
However, just as Ye Liangchen was immersed in joy, he suddenly felt something strange, as if a pair of eyes were watching everything in secret.
He looked around but saw nothing.
Is it an illusion?
Ye Liangchen frowned, and a trace of vigilance arose in his heart.
“Liangchen-kun, what’s wrong with you?” Hinata noticed something was wrong with Ye Liangchen and asked with concern.
Ye Liangchen shook his head and forced a smile: “Nothing, maybe I’m too tired.”
However, the uneasiness in his heart became more and more intense.
Special Chunin Exam…
Is it really just a simple exam?
Ye Liangchen’s eyes gradually became deeper, as if he saw the undercurrent hidden under the calm water…
011. This guy is too fierce (old version)
[A different world of Naruto, please collect it! ]The uneasiness in Ye Liangchen’s heart could not be shaken off, tightly wrapped around his tarsal bones like a maggot.
Is the Chunin Special Exam really just a simple selection?
He recalled all the clues from before and always felt that something was wrong.
The prying eyes and the vague murderous aura made him smell a hint of conspiracy.
“No, I have to check it out.” Ye Liangchen made up his mind secretly, with a determined look in his eyes.
He knew very well that this matter was of great importance and if not handled properly, it might bring a huge disaster to Konoha.
Rather than sit and wait for death, it is better to take the initiative.
As night fell, Konoha was shrouded in silence.
Ye Liangchen left the room quietly and moved around the village like a ghost.
Relying on the keen perception brought by his super god-level talent, he continued to search for clues.
However, the investigation was far more difficult than he had imagined.
Every time he seemed to be getting closer to the truth, he was blocked by an invisible force.
The clues were intermittent, as if someone was deliberately disrupting his vision.
This made him feel as if fate was deliberately playing tricks on him and setting up many obstacles for him.
“Could it be someone from inside Konoha?” Ye Liangchen couldn’t help but make this bold guess.
The thought shocked him, but upon closer thought, it wasn’t completely impossible.
After all, although Konoha appears to be united on the surface, there are various forces and conflicts in secret.
He continued to investigate further and found some clues pointing to a mysterious force within Konoha Village.
This force was extremely hidden and acted in a secretive manner, so even he found it difficult to track them down.
Every step he took was like walking on the edge of a knife, and if he was not careful he would be doomed.
A depressing atmosphere enveloped Ye Liangchen. He felt as if he was in a fog, unable to see the direction or find a way out.
But he did not give up. He knew he had to persevere, for the safety of Konoha and for his own beliefs.
“I want to see what the hell you are doing.” Ye Liangchen whispered to himself. He quickened the pace of his investigation and walked towards the unknown darkness step by step…
Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed by, Ye Liangchen turned back sharply, but saw only an empty street.
“who?”
The corners of Ye Liangchen’s mouth rose slightly, revealing a smug smile of “It’s worthy of me”.
He was like Sherlock Holmes possessed, unraveling the disorganized information and finding some key clues.
It turns out that this Chunin Exam is not as simple as it seems. There are hidden mysteries involved, and it seems to be related to a mysterious organization.
“Interesting,” Ye Liangchen touched his chin, his eyes gleaming with excitement. It felt like playing a puzzle game and finally solving it, and he felt a great sense of accomplishment.
As soon as it happened, suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and several black shadows fell from the sky and surrounded Ye Liangchen.
“Haha, they sent someone here so quickly. It seems my guess is almost right.” Ye Liangchen was not panicked at all, and was even a little excited. After all, this was a rare opportunity to practice.
These mysterious ninjas are agile and fierce in their moves, and it is obvious at first glance that they are not ordinary people.
Their shurikens flew together, kunai flashed coldly, and they cooperated well with each other. It was obvious that they were well-trained elites.
The surrounding trees were trembling due to the attack, and the leaves were falling one after another, as if in silence for Ye Liangchen.
Even the normally brave little animals were running around in fear. The atmosphere was so tense that it seemed to solidify into substance.
“That’s it? I thought you were so amazing.” Ye Liangchen said with ease, but he did not dare to slack off at all.
He dodged left and right, nimbly avoiding attack again and again, like a slippery loach, making it impossible for the enemy to catch him.
“You have good physical skills, young man.” While dodging, Ye Liangchen also made a few jokes, trying to disturb the enemy’s mind.
“Stop talking nonsense and surrender!” one of the ninjas roared, obviously angered by Ye Liangchen’s frivolous attitude.
However, Ye Liangchen ignored it and continued to dodge while observing the enemy’s weaknesses.
He is like a cheetah waiting for the best moment to strike.
Suddenly, Ye Liangchen’s eyes became stern, and a sly smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. “Now!”
Ye Liangchen moved, as fast as lightning!
He was like Zhao Zilong, who had unleashed his unparalleled martial arts skills, moving in and out of the enemy group seven times, punching and kicking with great force, and every move was deadly.
There was tremendous power in every punch, and every kick was precise.
“Bang, bang, bang!” With a series of muffled sounds, those mysterious ninjas were beaten black and blue, crying for their parents.
They could never have imagined that this seemingly ordinary Genin actually possessed such terrifying strength.
“That’s it? That’s it? Who else?” Ye Liangchen stood there, brushed off the dust on his body, looking relaxed.
His domineering aura made the remaining ninjas tremble in fear.
They looked at each other.
“Oh my god, this kid is so awesome!” Rock Lee, who was hiding in the dark and observing, couldn’t help but exclaimed.
“Yeah, he’s simply a monster!” Tiantian also echoed.
“I didn’t expect Ye Liangchen to be so powerful,” Hyuga Hinata watched from the side in amazement, her heart pounding.
She looked at Ye Liangchen’s heroic figure, her eyes full of concern and admiration, as if she wanted to imprint his figure deeply in her mind.
After the battle, Hinata could no longer suppress her excitement. She mustered up her courage, ran to Ye Liangchen, and asked with concern: “Ye Liangchen, are you okay?”
“It’s okay, no big deal.” Ye Liangchen looked at Hinata with a gentle smile on his face.
Their eyes met, and the air around them seemed to become sweet.
At this moment, Ye Liangchen’s eyes suddenly fell on one of the ninjas who fell to the ground.
He noticed that this ninja had the symbol of Konoha Anbu on his body!
“Wait…” Ye Liangchen stretched out his hand to stop Hinata who wanted to approach.
He slowly squatted down and tore off the ninja’s mask.
“Is it him?!” Ye Liangchen’s pupils suddenly shrank, as if he had seen something incredible.
012. I know what’s going on (old version)
“Is it him?!” Ye Liangchen’s pupils suddenly shrank, as if struck by a bolt from the blue, and his whole body was petrified.
This Anbu ninja is actually…
The long-lost elite jonin, Gekkou Gale!
How come Senior Jifeng is here?
And still mixed up with these ninjas of unknown origin?
Ye Liangchen’s brain was working at a rapid speed, buzzing like an overclocked CPU.
A chill ran from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and his intuition told him that this matter was far from as simple as it seemed!
“This…what’s going on?” Hinata’s voice trembled slightly, and she was obviously shocked by this sudden change.
She subconsciously grabbed Ye Liangchen’s sleeve, as if seeking a sense of security.
“Don’t panic.” Ye Liangchen took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
“This matter is of great importance and must be reported to the Hokage immediately!”
However, a bolder idea emerged in his mind.
“Wait! If I report it directly, will it alert the enemy? What if there is a bigger conspiracy behind this…”
Ye Liangchen’s eyes gradually became firm. “No! I have to go to the Anbu to find out for myself!”
“What?! This is too dangerous!” Hinata exclaimed, “The Anbu are heavily guarded, you go alone…”
“Don’t worry, I know what’s going on.” Ye Liangchen gave Hinata a reassuring look, “Wait for me here, I’ll be back soon.”
Before Hinata could dissuade him again, Ye Liangchen’s figure had disappeared into the night, leaving Hinata alone waiting anxiously.
The Anbu stronghold, located deep underground in Konoha Village, is like a huge maze, eerie and mysterious.
There is no sunshine here all year round, and the air is filled with a cold atmosphere that makes people shudder.
Ye Liangchen approached the entrance of the stronghold cautiously, only to find that it was heavily guarded. Anbu ninjas were moving around like ghosts. Their eyes were cold and alert, as if they were ready to attack at any time.
“It seems like there is indeed a problem here…” Ye Liangchen said to himself.
He felt as if he was in a huge spider web, being watched by countless pairs of eyes, and a sense of isolation and oppression arose spontaneously.
“Stop! Who are you?!” A low shout broke the silence of the night.
Two Anbu ninjas flashed out from the shadows and blocked Ye Liangchen’s way.
“I am……”
“Stop talking nonsense! This is not the place for you!” one of the ninjas shouted sternly, the kunai in his hand flashing with a cold light.
Ye Liangchen felt a strong hostility
“It seems like we have no choice but to force our way in…” Ye Liangchen sneered, “Let me see what you, the ANBU elites, are capable of!”
He took a deep breath and slowly formed seals with his hands…
Ye Liangchen raised the corner of his mouth and revealed a confident smile, as if saying, “Little guy, is that all?” His figure flashed and blended into the night like a ghost.
He is not the kind of reckless man who only knows how to fight head-on. As the king of the new era, he is well aware of the true meaning of “develop slowly and don’t waste time”.
His figure shuttled through the shadows of the Anbu stronghold, as silent and as ghostly as a ghost.
He nimbly avoided the patrolling ninjas one after another, as if he was playing a real-life version of “Ninja Parkour”.
The mechanisms and traps carefully set up by the Anbu were useless in his eyes. After all, who hasn’t watched a few episodes of “Detective Conan”?
“Hehe, that’s it? I thought the Anbu was so awesome, ha~” Ye Liangchen thought proudly in his heart, his steps becoming more brisk.
He was like a slippery loach, moving freely in the impenetrable net and soon penetrated into the core area of the Anbu.
He even had the leisure to complain: “The defense of this Anbu is just so-so, not as good as the security guard in my neighborhood.”
Just when Ye Liangchen was about to give a thumbs up to his own wit, a strong sense of oppression instantly enveloped him.
“Who?!” A cold voice echoed in the small space, as if it came from the judgment deep in hell.
Ye Liangchen’s pupils shrank, and he felt a murderous intent that was as real as an invisible sharp blade against his throat.
Before he could react, a shadow came at him like lightning, bringing with it the sound of a sharp wind and explosions in the air.
“Fuck!” Ye Liangchen couldn’t help but curse, but his body’s reaction was faster than his brain.
He did a backflip and barely avoided the fatal blow.
The attack hit the wall, instantly leaving a crack deep enough to see the bone, and debris flew everywhere like a bomb explosion.
“What a fast speed!” Ye Liangchen was shocked and did not dare to be careless at all.
He was like a nimble cheetah, constantly dodging in the narrow space. Each time was extremely dangerous, and each time he narrowly escaped death.
He could feel that every time he dodged, a gust of wind would be brought up, making his hair messy.
The opponent’s attack came like a storm, each move more fierce and deadly than the last.
Ye Liangchen could only keep dodging. He could feel his nerves were extremely tense. Every dodge was like dancing on a tightrope. If he was not careful he would be crushed to pieces.
He could hear the walls cracking from the attacks, and could feel small scrapes on his body. There was a faint smell of blood in the air.
He could feel his chakra starting to speed up and his body began to heat up.
“Tsk, what a tough guy.” Ye Liangchen cursed in his heart. He could feel that the other party’s strength was unfathomable and it was totally beyond the ability of a small Genin like him to contend with.
Just as he was trying desperately to dodge, his opponent suddenly stopped attacking.
“Who… are you?” The low voice sounded again, with a hint of doubt.
Ye Liangchen also stopped and gasped for breath.
“Who am I?” He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a meaningful smile on his face, “Why don’t you guess first?”
Ye Liangchen’s mouth curled up, revealing a provocative smile, as if saying: “Little guy, buddy is a professional!” He was not idle while dodging. His super god-level talent was activated. Every breath was like charging, and his chakra value kept rising, as if he was riding on a rocket.
“Guess your sister!” Ye Liangchen suddenly jumped up, his feet seemed to be on Hot Wheels, his speed instantly increased by several levels, and his afterimage was divided into several lines.
He punched out with a force as powerful as thunder, and even a sharp sonic boom sounded in the air.
The mysterious master obviously did not expect Ye Liangchen to suddenly counterattack with such amazing speed and strength. He was caught off guard and was blown away. He hit the wall with a dull sound and gravel splashed everywhere, as if he had been plowed by an excavator.
“Oh my god, this kid is something!” Ye Liangchen was secretly happy. As expected, slow and steady development is the right way to go. With a counterattack, he directly reversed the situation.
He took advantage of the victory and smashed his opponent with fists and feet like a rainstorm. Each blow was carried with terrifying power and speed, and his opponent was beaten back step by step.
“No way? I was actually suppressed by a Genin?” The mysterious master was extremely shocked. He was an elite of the Anbu, but he was so embarrassed in front of a Genin. This was simply a great shame.
“That’s all?” Ye Liangchen became more and more courageous as the battle went on, and his aura became stronger and stronger, as if he had turned into a god of war.
His fists fell like raindrops, and each blow carried a crushing force, leaving his opponent with no power to fight back.
He could feel his body getting hot, his blood boiling, his muscles roaring, and every cell in his body cheering.
He could hear his opponent’s groans of pain and smell the blood in the air.
At the same time, outside the Anbu stronghold, Hinata was extremely anxious, her hands tightly grasping the corners of her clothes, and beads of sweat oozing from her forehead.
From time to time, she looked deep into the stronghold, and she could feel that her heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible big hand, making it difficult for her to breathe.
She could hear her own heartbeat, like the beating of a drum, which made her eardrums hurt.
She could feel her blood rushing faster, making her cheeks hot.
She was really scared, afraid that something would happen to Ye Liangchen, and afraid that she would never see that sunny and cheerful boy again.
Just when Ye Liangchen was preparing to press on with his victory and completely defeat his opponent, the ground suddenly began to shake violently, and the entire Anbu stronghold seemed to be about to collapse.
A huge sealing technique was suddenly activated, and countless complex runes lit up on the ground, forming a huge cage that trapped Ye Liangchen inside.
Ye Liangchen only felt a flash before his eyes, and a powerful force bound him, as if he had fallen into an endless abyss.
He could feel his body being restrained by a powerful force, unable to move. He could hear a buzzing sound all around him, as if it were whispers from ancient times. He could feel his chakra being sucked away madly.
“This is…” Ye Liangchen was shocked and wanted to break free, but found that he was powerless. He could only watch the sealing technique completely devour him. The smile on his face disappeared, replaced by a hint of doubt.
The light of the sealing technique grew brighter and brighter, eventually engulfing everything.
“Haha, as expected, things are not that simple.”
013. High-end game? (Old version)
The light of the sealing technique engulfed Ye Liangchen, and the world fell into a dead white light.
But the expected pain did not come. Ye Liangchen only felt his body light, as if floating in the clouds.
The white light dissipated, and he found himself in a strange space, surrounded by constantly flowing runes emitting a faint light.
“Oh my god, what’s going on? A high-end game?” Ye Liangchen touched his nose without a trace of panic.
As expected, he is a man who has seen many storms and even experienced such a small thing as time travel. What else can make him panic?
He began to carefully observe the runes around him, as if he was studying an elementary school student’s homework.
“This sealing technique is quite interesting. Its structure is quite complicated. It is even more difficult to understand than the recipe of the old jar pickled cabbage handed down from my family.”
He walked around the rune, reaching out and touching it from time to time, feeling the energy flowing through it.
The rune exuded a faint coolness, like a spring flowing through the fingertips, but it also brought with it an indescribable sense of oppression, just like being stared at by the head teacher.
“This feels a little off…” He frowned, his expression gradually becoming serious.
Ye Liangchen sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes, and tried to feel the flow of energy from the sealing technique.
He could feel a powerful force restraining him, wrapping him tightly like a spider web.
He tried to mobilize his own chakra, but found it was like a drop in the ocean, with no response at all.
“Am I really going to be trapped here?” A trace of self-doubt came to my mind.
He suddenly opened his eyes, “No, I am Ye Liangchen, the King of Konoha! How can I be trapped by such a childish sealing technique?” He took a deep breath and closed his eyes again. This time, he no longer tried to break through by brute force, but focused his attention on the flow of the runes.
As time passed, beads of sweat appeared on Ye Liangchen’s forehead.
He felt that his mental strength was being consumed and his consciousness was beginning to become blurred.
“No, this is not a solution…” He clenched his teeth and forced himself to stay awake.
Suddenly, he felt a slight pause in the flow of runes, just like a computer freeze.
“Now!” He suddenly opened his eyes, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes…
“etc……”
“So that’s how it is. The flaw in this sealing technique is right here!” Ye Liangchen’s mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a confident smile.
He was like a top player who had found a loophole in the game. He rubbed his hands excitedly and mobilized the chakra in his body like a rushing river, gathering it at his fingertips.
“Break it for me!” He growled, and poked out his fingertips suddenly. A golden light instantly burst out from his fingertips, piercing towards the place where the rune flow stagnated like a sharp sword.
There was a crisp “crack” sound, as if glass was breaking, and the runes that bound him instantly disintegrated and turned into starlight that dissipated in the air.
Ye Liangchen only felt a flash of light before his eyes, and his body instantly regained freedom.
He stretched and moved his muscles, making crackling sounds.
“This feeling is so fucking awesome! It’s like I just got a pentakill in a ranked game!” He jumped up and down excitedly, feeling the power surging through his body and feeling like he was able to do it again.
“Next, it’s time to meet the guy who caused the trouble.” Ye Liangchen’s eyes flashed, and like a cheetah, he rushed towards the depths of the dark side.
After passing through many corridors, Ye Liangchen finally stopped in front of a closed room.
He could feel a cold aura emanating from inside, which made people feel uncomfortable like a poisonous snake.
Without hesitation, he kicked the door open.
“Bang!” The door broke open and wood chips flew everywhere.
In the room, a ninja wearing an Anbu uniform was standing there with his back to Ye Liangchen.
Hearing the loud noise, he slowly turned around, revealing a sinister face.
“Who are you? How can you break through my sealing technique?” The man’s voice was low and full of unwillingness.
Ye Liangchen looked at the ninja in front of him and found that his eyes were full of madness and there was a strange smile on the corner of his mouth.
“Tsk, tsk, buddy, your acting is terrible. You look like a controlled villain non-player character.”
“Hmph, now that you’ve been discovered, then go to hell!” The man roared and quickly formed seals with his hands.
Suddenly, countless ninjutsu attacked Ye Liangchen like a storm.
Fire escape, water escape, wind escape…
Ninjutsu of various attributes intertwined together, illuminating the entire room with colorful lights, as if it were a grand light show.
Ye Liangchen took a deep breath and looked at the doomsday-like scene in front of him. There was not a trace of fear in his eyes, but instead there was an infinite desire to fight.
“Come on! Let me see how strong you are!”
At this moment, he suddenly heard a voice sounding in his ear, “Boy, your chakra is very special…”, and the voice stopped abruptly.
Facing this colorful ninjutsu attack, Ye Liangchen’s lips curled up in disdain.
“That’s it? I thought it was something earth-shattering, but it’s just this? That’s it?” He flashed as fast as lightning, like an ADC (physical output core, gaming terminology, here translated as “physical output type character”) who started sprinting. He moved freely among the dense ninjutsu attacks and dodged all attacks with ease, as if he was playing the game “If you’re a man, go down to the hundredth floor” with ease.
While dodging, he did not forget to complain: “Hey, buddy, your attack density is not good enough. It’s not even as dense as the square dance formation of the aunties downstairs from my house!” He even had the leisure to pick his ears, looking bored.
After dodging all the attacks, Ye Liangchen instantly came in front of the controlled Anbu ninja and gave him an evil smile, “Next, it’s my turn!” He clenched his fists, mobilized the chakra in his body, and punched out, hitting the Anbu ninja’s abdomen like a cannonball.
“Bang!” With a dull sound, the Anbu ninja flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, fell heavily to the ground, spitting blood from his mouth, unable to move.
“Ahem…” The Anbu ninja raised his head with difficulty, his eyes full of disbelief, “You… who are you?”
“I’m just a Kamen Rider passing by, remember this!” Ye Liangchen shook his hands, looking like a hermit.
As the Anbu ninja fell, a hidden scroll fell out with the words “Action Plan for the Exam” written on it.
Ye Liangchen picked up the scroll, opened it, and immediately understood the truth of the whole incident.
It turns out that this Chunin Exam is a conspiracy carefully planned by some mysterious forces, the purpose of which is to…
Ye Liangchen suddenly raised his head and looked around.
At this moment, a figure came running and threw itself into Ye Liangchen’s arms like a young swallow flying into the forest.
It’s Hyuga Hinata!
She hugged Ye Liangchen tightly, her eyes full of love and worry, “Ye Liangchen, are you okay? I was really scared!”
Ye Liangchen also hugged Hinata tightly, stroked her hair gently, and whispered: “I’m fine, don’t worry.” When the Anbu members around saw this scene, they all smiled like aunties. The air was filled with pink bubbles, full of warmth and sweetness.
However, this warm atmosphere did not last long.
An Anbu ninja hurried over and said to Ye Liangchen with a serious look: “Master Ye Liangchen, urgent information!”
Ye Liangchen frowned, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.
“What’s going on?”
014. Fight between dragons and tigers! (Old version)
“The Sand Village and the Sound Village… actually sent out such a strong Genin?!” Ye Liangchen looked at the intelligence scroll in his hand, his eyes fixed, a fighting spirit burning in his chest.
Gaara, Temari, and Kankuro, the three monsters of the Sand Village, each of them is extremely powerful; and Toss, Sack, and Kin of the Sound Village are like poisonous snakes hiding in the dark, making them hard to guard against.
It seems that this Chunin Special Exam is destined to be a battle between dragons and tigers!
“Interesting.” Ye Liangchen’s mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a confident smile.
He knew very well that if he wanted to stand out in such an exam full of top candidates, he had to work harder and improve his abilities to the extreme.
“Come on, let me see how strong you are!”
While formulating the special training plan, Ye Liangchen fell into deep thought.
He frowned and tapped the table rhythmically with his fingers, making a “thump, thump, thump” sound.
“Improve overall? Or focus on weaknesses?” Ye Liangchen whispered to himself, his mind full of thoughts.
On the one hand, he longed to improve his abilities in all aspects, whether it was physical skills, ninjutsu or genjutsu, he wanted to reach a whole new level.
Only in this way can you be at ease in the exam and deal with various emergencies.
With a “ding” sound, the system prompt sounded again in my mind: “Congratulations to the host, the number of normal attacks has reached 10,000 times, and the reward is: the total amount of chakra increases by 1,000 points!”
“Good!” Ye Liangchen clenched his fists excitedly, feeling the chakra filling his body, and an unprecedented sense of power arose spontaneously.
“Now, I have more confidence!”
However, on the other hand, he was worried that overtraining would lead to injuries, which would affect his performance in the exam.
After all, the Chunin Exams were just around the corner, and he had to be in top shape to be able to unleash his full strength.
“What if I get hurt? Wouldn’t all my efforts be wasted?” Ye Liangchen frowned even more tightly, his heart filled with contradictions and entanglements.
“Time is running out, I must make a choice!” Ye Liangchen took a deep breath, and his eyes gradually became firm.
“Instead of looking back and forth, it’s better to give it a try!”
He stood up suddenly, walked to the window, looked at the undulating Hokage Rocks in the distance, and had already made a decision in his heart.
“I have made up my mind…” Ye Liangchen turned around, his eyes flashing with determination, “Instead of being timid, we might as well…” “…why not just roll up quickly!” Ye Liangchen’s eyes flashed, as if the dormant primitive power in his body was about to awaken!
He immediately started the devilish training.
Others would rest after training to their limit, but he would train to his limit and then do another set!
Others punch a thousand times, he punches ten thousand times!
Others ran around Konoha ten times, but he ran a hundred times!
Sweating profusely and having sore muscles, these are just trivial matters to Ye Liangchen!
Every time he broke through his limits, he could feel the chakra surge in his body, as unstoppable as a volcanic eruption!
“Great! I’ve become stronger again!” He clenched his fists excitedly, feeling the surging power in his body. He felt so good!
The friends who were training together were all stunned.
Hinata Hyuga blushed and secretly glanced at Ye Liangchen, her heart beating like a deer: “Ye Liangchen, you really work so hard…” Rock Lee, on the other hand, was full of admiration: “Is this the power of youth? I also want to burn my calories like Ye Liangchen!” Tiantian looked at Ye Liangchen with curiosity, exclaiming “Wow” and “So awesome” from time to time.
In a simulated battle training, Rock Lee volunteered to challenge Ye Liangchen.
As soon as the battle began, Rock Lee went all out and used his signature physical technique – Konoha Whirlwind!
He turned into a green whirlwind, so fast that it was almost impossible to capture with the naked eye!
“The speed is good, but not enough!” Ye Liangchen’s mouth curled up slightly, and he flashed and barely avoided Rock Lee’s attack. There was an exclamation of surprise all around.
“Oh my god, this reaction speed is too amazing!”
Rock Lee was not discouraged and continued to launch fierce attacks, each move was fatal and each punch hit the flesh!
“See Lianhua!” With a roar, Rock Lee once again transformed into a whirlwind, even more powerful than before!
“Interesting!” Ye Liangchen’s eyes were burning with fighting spirit. He nimbly dodged Rock Lee’s attacks and counterattacked from time to time.
The two figures flashed across the training ground, colliding violently like two lightning bolts!
The audience around was so excited that their blood was boiling. Cheers rang out one after another and a tense atmosphere filled the air.
“Next, it’s my turn!” Ye Liangchen’s eyes fixed, and his body suddenly paused…
I saw him forming seals with his hands and the chakra in his body was surging wildly!
“Bagua—one strike!” Ye Liangchen shouted softly and slapped the ground with his palm. A powerful shock wave instantly erupted, knocking Rock Lee away!
With a loud “bang”, Rock Lee fell heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
He struggled to stand up, but found that his whole body was sore and weak, and he had obviously lost his fighting ability.
“Thank you.” Ye Liangchen smiled faintly, walked in front of Li Luoke, stretched out his hand and pulled him up.
“You are very strong, but my journey has just begun!”
Li Luoke looked at Ye Liangchen’s determined eyes, his heart full of admiration.
“Ye Liangchen, you are such a monster!” he exclaimed sincerely.
The audience around also applauded and cheered, cheering for this wonderful match.
“Ye Liangchen, you are so awesome!” “You are worthy of being the King of Konoha!” “Ye Liangchen, I want to give birth to a baby for you!” Various words of praise came one after another. Ye Liangchen stood in the center of the training ground, enjoying the admiring gazes of everyone, his heart filled with a sense of accomplishment.
At this time, Hyuga Hinata shyly walked up to Ye Liangchen, handed him a glass of water, her cheeks as red as a ripe apple.
“Ye Liangchen, you’ve worked hard…” She said softly, her voice so low that it was almost inaudible.
Ye Liangchen took the water, their fingers touched lightly, and a subtle electric current instantly spread throughout his body.
When the people around saw this, they immediately started to cheer: “Be together! Be together!” An ambiguous atmosphere filled the air.
However, at this moment, a strange wind suddenly blew in the training ground, and the surrounding trees shook violently, making a rustling sound.
The ground began to shake, and some tiny cracks appeared on the ground, spreading like a spider web.
“What’s going on?” Everyone stopped playing and looked at each other.
Ye Liangchen frowned and looked around vigilantly.
He felt a strong chakra fluctuation, but couldn’t pinpoint its source.
“This power…” Ye Liangchen muttered to himself, with an ominous premonition in his heart, “It seems to be coming towards me…”
He raised his head suddenly and looked towards the woods at the edge of the training ground.
“Who is it? Come out!”
There was silence in the woods, no response.
Only the rustling of leaves in the wind seemed particularly eerie.
Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed through the woods, as fast as lightning!
“Who is it?!” Ye Liangchen was shocked and immediately assumed a fighting stance.
The black shadow disappeared without a trace, leaving only one sentence echoing in the air: “Hehehe… Ye Liangchen, we will meet again soon…”
Ye Liangchen clenched his fists, his eyes cold.
“Humph, playing tricks!”
015. Do you really think you are Sherlock Holmes? (Old version)
Ye Liangchen narrowed his eyes and scanned the training ground like a hawk.
The sudden vibration and strange chakra fluctuations made him smell something unusual.
“What the hell? They didn’t even tell me in advance about this earthquake simulation training?” He complained, but he was extremely alert in his heart.
Although this chakra fluctuation was powerful, it gave him a vague feeling, very much like a trick used by some ghostly guys.
He began to walk around the edge of the training ground, observing everything around him as keenly as a cheetah.
The cracks on the ground, the chakra fluctuations remaining in the air, and even the direction in which the leaves swayed, could not escape his sharp eyes.
Suddenly, he stopped and his eyes fixed on a slightly raised piece of land.
“Interesting…” He squatted down and gently brushed away the dust on the surface with his hand, revealing a stone slab engraved with strange runes.
“What is this?” Ye Liangchen frowned. He had never seen this rune before, but he vaguely felt a familiar aura.
He stretched out his hand and wanted to touch the stone slab, but suddenly felt a strong repulsive force pushing him away.
“Shit, this is a scam!” He staggered and almost fell flat on his face.
At this moment, the ground began to shake again, and the runes on the stone slab began to flash with strange light.
Ye Liangchen was shocked and immediately realized that this stone slab might be the source of the interference.
He tried to get closer to the stone slab again, but found that the repulsive force was even stronger, making it difficult for him to breathe.
“This thing is a bit weird…”
He took a deep breath, mobilized the chakra in his body, and prepared to forcibly break through the repulsive force.
However, just as he was about to touch the stone slab, a black shadow suddenly jumped out from the ground and shattered the stone slab instantly!
“Who is it?!” Ye Liangchen turned around suddenly, but only saw a blurry figure disappearing into the woods.
He cursed in his heart and immediately chased after him.
However, when he chased to the edge of the woods, he found that the black shadow had disappeared without a trace, leaving only rubble on the ground and a faint wisp of chakra.
Ye Liangchen picked up a piece of gravel and carefully observed the rune fragments on it.
The runes on these fragments seemed to have been deliberately destroyed by some force, making it impossible for him to recognize the complete pattern.
He felt as if he was being controlled by an invisible hand, walking step by step towards an unknown trap.
“Interesting, playing hide-and-seek with me, huh?” He sneered, “I want to see who is behind this!”
He crushed the gravel into powder. “Just wait and see. I will definitely find you out!”
Ye Liangchen narrowed his eyes, and a playful arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Do these guys hiding in the dark and making trouble really think they are Sherlock Holmes?
He followed the chakra fluctuations remaining in the air, tracking all the way, using his keen five senses to the fullest extent, like a high-precision radar, scanning every movement around him.
“Hmph, you’re quite good at hiding.” He muttered to himself, his eyes penetrating through the layers of tree shadows like X-rays, and finally locked onto an inconspicuous place deep in the dense forest.
There, the chakra fluctuations in the air were the strongest, like a twisted flame, burning arrogantly.
“Found it!” Ye Liangchen rubbed his hands excitedly, as if he had discovered a treasure. The doubts in his heart were gradually replaced by excitement. This was much more interesting than simply completing tasks.
He crept over quietly, his figure as light and silent as a civet cat.
However, just as he was about to approach the depths of the jungle, several dark shadows suddenly rushed out from all directions and surrounded him.
These dark shadows were all wearing the same black uniforms, with ferocious masks on their faces and all kinds of strange weapons in their hands. It was obvious that they were not good people.
“Oh, you’re still setting an ambush? It seems like your true intention has been exposed.” Ye Liangchen whistled, but there was no fear on his face. Instead, there was a hint of excitement that he was eager to try.
Although these guys’ chakra is not weak, in his eyes, they are just a group of moving targets that give away experience.
“Go!” The leading man in black shouted coldly, and in an instant, all kinds of attacks came towards Ye Liangchen like a storm.
Shurikens, kunai, and even some strange ninjutsu were thrown at them as if they were free. For a moment, the surrounding trees were blown to pieces, and branches and leaves flew everywhere.
Ye Liangchen’s figure was as fast as lightning, shuttling through the dense waves of attacks, like an elf dancing in the hail of bullets.
Relying on his sharp reflexes and agile body movements, he dodged all the attacks one by one. Each dodge was just right and dangerous, which made people terrified.
“This kid is quite something!” The leader of the men in black was secretly shocked. They attacked in perfect coordination, but they couldn’t hurt Ye Liangchen at all. This kid is too good at dodging!
However, he was not discouraged by this, but became even more excited.
“Hmph, let’s see how long you can hide!” The leader of the men in black sneered and formed seals with his hands. In an instant, countless traps and snares appeared on the ground, like a huge cage, trapping Ye Liangchen inside.
Ye Liangchen looked around and felt a little pressure in his heart at the traps that were constantly flashing dangerous light.
“It’s quite interesting. It seems that if I don’t show some real skills, it will be difficult to deal with it.” He licked his lips.
“Next, I’ll show you what a real king of rolls is!” He whispered to himself, clenching his fists, making a crackling sound.
At this moment, the chakra in his body was surging like a flood that had been opened. It was a powerful force that could not be described in words.
“It’s time to show your real skills!” Ye Liangchen grinned, his eyes becoming as sharp as a cheetah.
Ye Liangchen took a deep breath, and chakra flowed continuously in his body.
He roared suddenly and rushed towards the members of the mysterious organization like an angry bull.
Each of his moves was extremely swift. Visually, one could only see afterimages flashing by, and one could hear the whistling sound of the wind caused by his attacks.
His fists and feet seemed to have eyes and landed accurately on the enemies.
The members of the mysterious organization felt that the Genin in front of them had suddenly turned into an invincible monster. They widened their eyes in horror and retreated step by step.
Ye Liangchen stood where he was, with his arms folded across his chest, looking confidently at the guys who were being beaten to the ground.
Just then, Hyuga Hinata ran over panting.
She ran all the way here, the only sound in her ears was her own violent heartbeat, her eyes fixed in Ye Liangchen’s direction, fearing that something had happened to him.
When she saw Ye Liangchen’s victorious look, her eyes were full of admiration.
Ye Liangchen turned around and saw Hinata, and his heart warmed. The two of them just looked at each other quietly, and it seemed as if little pink bubbles were popping up around them.
However, before Ye Liangchen had time to enjoy this moment of tranquility, he suddenly discovered some clues.
A certain mark on the members of these mysterious organization is subtly related to a judge of the Chunin Special Exam.
His eyes widened instantly, as if he had seen something incredible.
Ye Liangchen clenched his fists and said coldly to the air: “Humph, it seems that the water behind this is deeper than I thought.”
016. Come on, times have changed! (Old version)
Ye Liangchen frowned, his eyes as sharp as a knife.
The marks on the bodies of these mysterious organization’s members were like thorns in his heart, making him extremely angry.
The Chunin Special Exam is the promotion opportunity that every Genin dreams of. Now someone is trying to manipulate it. It’s simply outrageous!
A surge of blood rushed to his heart, he clenched his fists and swore secretly: “I, Ye Liangchen, will never allow this to happen!”
He decided to launch an investigation immediately and eradicate this dark force.
Ye Liangchen first found Kakashi and told him all his discoveries and suspicions.
After hearing this, Kakashi’s expression turned serious.
“This matter is of great importance. I will report it to the Hokage immediately.”
However, things did not go as smoothly as Ye Liangchen had imagined.
When he tried to investigate further, he found himself hitting a wall at every turn.
Some high-ranking officials of Konoha seemed to intentionally or unintentionally obstruct his investigation and even put pressure on him.
“Ye Liangchen, you are just a Genin. Don’t get involved in things that are not your business.” An elder warned him in a cold tone.
“For some things, knowing too much is not good for you.” Another senior executive said meaningfully.
Ye Liangchen keenly realized that he seemed to be caught in a huge vortex.
This is not just a matter of cheating in the Chunin Exam, there seems to be a deeper conspiracy behind it.
He felt like a lone wolf, fighting against the corrupt forces of the entire Konoha Village.
A depressing atmosphere permeated the air, like the calm before the storm.
Ye Liangchen took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with determination.
He knew that he had no way out.
“It seems that I have to use some unconventional means…” Ye Liangchen showed a sneer on his face.
Who is Ye Liangchen?
In Konoha Village, almost everyone knows about it.
This name represents efficiency, represents the most hardworking in the village, and also represents…
roll!
Who dares to stop him?
I’m afraid he’s tired of living.
Faced with pressure from Konoha’s top leaders, Ye Liangchen felt nothing at all and even wanted to laugh.
A warning from the elders?
Haha, it’s just a passing breeze.
A hint from the top?
Come on, times have changed!
He directly launched the mass line and brought the matter to the villagers’ meeting.
What is prestige?
That’s it!
The villagers expressed their support. After all, who doesn’t want their children to take part in the Chunin Exam in a fair and just environment?
Some ninjas were too embarrassed to express their support openly, but they also secretly gave Ye Liangchen a thumbs up.
Now, the top executives were dumbfounded. This guy doesn’t play by the rules!
“Konoha is my home, and the King of Volume depends on everyone!” Ye Liangchen stood on the podium, passionate, as if he had his own holy light.
“We can’t let the dark forces tarnish the sanctity of the Chunin Exam!” He waved his fists as if to crush all evil forces.
There was thunderous applause from the audience, and some even shouted: “Ye Liangchen! The light of Konoha!” Wow, he was directly deified!
Under pressure, the top leaders had no choice but to give up obstruction.
Ye Liangchen took advantage of the victory and went straight to the judges’ lair.
Faced with the aggressive Ye Liangchen, the judges felt guilty, but they still launched the attack.
“A mere Genin dares to challenge us?” A judge sneered and unleashed a powerful fireball technique.
The flames burned fiercely, as if to devour everything.
The space around Ye Liangchen was distorted, heat waves hit him in the face, and the air was filled with a burnt smell.
But he was not in a hurry and even had the leisure to complain: “That’s it? I thought it was some kind of powerful ninjutsu!” His figure flashed and he dodged the attack like a ghost. By the way, he picked up a stone on the ground and weighed it.
“Well, it feels good.” He sneered, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.
“Next, it’s my turn…”
A scornful arc appeared on Ye Liangchen’s lips. The chakra in his body surged like a rushing river, and every breath seemed to cause the surrounding air to vibrate.
He threw it casually, and the stone he was weighing seemed to have the power to destroy the world.
“Watch out, this move is called ‘Physical Salvation’!” He shouted in a low voice, and with endless chakra, the stone cut through the sky like a meteor, making a sharp whistling sound.
The judges only felt a flash before their eyes, and before they could react, the seemingly ordinary stone had already hit them hard.
“Bang!” There was a loud noise, as if the sky was falling and the earth was splitting apart, and the ground shook a few times.
When the smoke and dust cleared, the judges who had been so aggressive before now collapsed to the ground like mud, their clothes ragged, foaming at the mouth, looking in a miserable state. There was no trace of the majesty they had just now.
“That’s all? You dare to pretend in front of me?” Ye Liangchen clapped his hands, looking calm and composed, as if he had just done something insignificant.
His eyes swept across the people present. Those who had originally doubted Ye Liangchen’s ability now all opened their mouths wide with disbelief on their faces, as if they had seen something unbelievable.
There was a faint smell of burning in the air, which was the aftertaste of the chakra collision, reminding everyone that what had just happened was not an illusion.
“There is only one truth!” Ye Liangchen pointed at the judges who collapsed on the ground with a sneer on his lips, “They are the masterminds who want to manipulate the Chunin Exam!” His voice was not loud, but it exploded in everyone’s ears like thunder.
“Ye Liangchen! The light of Konoha!” The crowd cheered again, and they looked at Ye Liangchen with eyes full of admiration and worship.
At this moment, a figure suddenly pounced towards Ye Liangchen.
“Liangchen-kun! You are awesome!” Hinata Hyuga hugged Ye Liangchen excitedly, her petite body trembling slightly with excitement.
Her cheeks were rosy like ripe apples. Ye Liangchen was stunned for a moment, then a gentle smile appeared on his face.
He hugged Hinata gently, feeling the warmth coming from her.
??The surrounding ninjas all smiled kindly, and some even whistled. The atmosphere on the scene was filled with warmth and sweetness.
Just as Ye Liangchen was looking forward to the upcoming Chunin Exam, a ninja in charge of intelligence ran over in a hurry, his face solemn and his tone hastily said: “Oh no! Ye Liangchen, the village has accepted a new mission to escort a caravan, and the time may conflict with the Chunin Special Exam.” Hearing this, Ye Liangchen frowned tightly, “This… is a bit interesting.”
017. Escort a caravan? (Old version)
The news brought by the intelligence ninja was like a bolt from the blue, directly hitting Ye Liangchen’s beautiful vision of the Chunin Exam.
What?
Escorting a caravan?
What does this have to do with my ninja path?
The Chunin Exam is my home court!
He was complaining in his heart, it was even more uncomfortable than eating expired ramen.
However, Ye Liangchen is not a lazy ninja who only knows how to complain.
After a brief struggle, his eyes narrowed and a sense of responsibility rose in his heart.
Konoha Village entrusted him with such an important task. What a trust it showed!
Besides, wouldn’t it be wonderful to hone yourself and improve your abilities during the mission?
Thinking of this, Ye Liangchen curled the corners of his mouth and revealed a confident smile.
“Challenge? Come on! I, Ye Liangchen, am fearless!”
He strode towards the caravan, ready to take on new challenges.
The sunlight shone on his face, giving him a golden glow, as if he was a warrior about to go to battle.
The caravan gathered and set off in a mighty procession.
The camel bells sounded clear and melodious, the wheels made a “creaking” sound as they rolled over the sand, mixed with the merchants’ chatting and laughter, creating a lively scene.
However, this harmonious atmosphere was soon broken.
A female businessman dressed elegantly pointed at Ye Liangchen with her nail-painted fingers, and said in a sarcastic voice like sandpaper rubbing against glass: “Just him? A Genin who hasn’t even grown all his hair yet, can he protect us? I don’t think he can even kill a chicken!”
The merchants around cast strange looks at him and whispered to each other.
Ye Liangchen felt his cheeks getting slightly hot. This was even more embarrassing than being killed by Kakashi’s Thousand Years of Death.
He took a deep breath and tried to control his emotions. Just as he was about to explain, the business woman became even more aggressive: “I think he’s just here to eat and drink for free! Who knows, he might sell us out one day!”
“Sister, you can eat whatever you want, but… ” Ye Liangchen narrowed his eyes slightly, with a hint of danger in his tone.
“Don’t talk nonsense, big sister.” Ye Liangchen raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a confident smile, just like a fox who stole Naruto’s ramen.
“Although I, Ye Liangchen, am only a Genin, my strength is not to be underestimated. Apart from anything else, with my unique skill of ‘Chakra·Infinite Refill’, I can easily fight against ten… uh… female warriors like you!” He paused deliberately, his eyes full of teasing.
The merchants around were originally a little worried, but when they heard Ye Liangchen’s words, they couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
The female businessman was so angry that his face turned blue, his lips trembled, but he couldn’t utter a word for a long time.
Seeing her frustrated look, Ye Liangchen felt secretly happy and continued, “As for protecting the caravan, I have already made a foolproof plan. First of all, I will set traps along the way to make sure those blind thieves have no chance of returning. Secondly, I will use my ‘Bai Yan’ – ahem, although I don’t have Bai Yan, my eyesight is very good – to scout the surrounding situation at all times and ensure the safety of the caravan. Finally, if we really encounter danger, I will use my ‘Rasengan’ – well, actually I don’t know how to use Rasengan, but my fists are strong enough – to beat the enemy to a pulp!”
Ye Liangchen described his “tactics” in vivid detail, leaving the businessmen stunned.
Some people began to look at him with admiration, thinking that although this guy was not very good, he seemed to be quite capable.
The female businessman was completely shocked by Ye Liangchen’s nonsense. She was speechless for a moment and didn’t know how to refute.
Ye Liangchen was secretly proud of himself. It seemed that his ability of talking had improved a lot!
The caravan continued to move forward and gradually reached the edge of the desert.
The sun was shining brightly, yellow sand was everywhere, and the air was filled with a hot smell.
At this moment, a group of black spots appeared on the distant horizon, accompanied by rolling sand and dust, and quickly approached the caravan.
“It’s thieves!” Someone shouted, and the caravan suddenly fell into chaos.
The thieves rode on tall horses, wielding scimitars, and swarmed in like locusts.
Their arrogant laughter echoed in the air, as if the god of death was announcing their arrival.
The atmosphere in the caravan suddenly became tense, and the air was filled with fear.
Ye Liangchen narrowed his eyes, looked at the thief who was getting closer and closer, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
“It’s finally here…” he whispered, “The game has begun.”
The bandit leader pulled the reins and stopped not far from the caravan, shouting: “I opened this mountain and planted this tree. If you want to pass through here, you have to leave money for passage!”
Ye Liangchen took a step forward and responded loudly: “The King of Heaven and the Tiger of Earth!”
Ye Liangchen saw the thieves coming aggressively, but he remained calm. A confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, like a general who was confident of his plans.
“Everyone, don’t panic! Follow my command!” He shouted loudly, like a bolt of thunder out of the blue, instantly stabilizing the somewhat panicked caravan.
“Uncle, pile all your goods in front to form a barrier!” Ye Liangchen pointed at a few burly businessmen and shouted, then turned to the others, “Everyone else, take your stuff, hide behind the goods, and be ready to fight back at any time!” He spoke very quickly but clearly, allowing the businessmen to quickly find their respective positions.
In an instant, the originally scattered caravan formed a simple but effective defensive formation under the command of Ye Liangchen.
The goods were piled up like a mountain, blocking the front. The merchants hid behind, holding weapons, ready for battle. The tense atmosphere was filled with a belief that they would win.
The bandits rushed closer and were surprised to see the formation of the caravan.
They originally thought that these were just a group of fat sheep that could be slaughtered at will, but they didn’t expect them to be so difficult to deal with.
The thief leader frowned, wielded the scimitar in his hand, and roared loudly: “Charge! Kill them all!”
The thieves roared, rode on tall horses, and rushed towards the caravan waving their weapons.
However, they found that this barrier made of goods was stronger than they had imagined. The cavalry could not break through it directly. It was like they had hit a wall and their speed dropped sharply.
Ye Liangchen stood at the forefront of the defense formation, his upright figure, like a magic needle that stabilizes the sea, firmly nailed to the spot.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, the chakra in his body surged like a tide, and his hands clenched into fists, ready to attack at any time.
He did not take the initiative to attack, but calmly observed the enemy’s movements, waiting for the best time to counterattack.
“This kid is quite capable.” The female businessman stood in the crowd and looked at Ye Liangchen’s calm appearance. However, she soon returned to her sarcastic look and curled her lips. In her heart, she still didn’t believe that this little Genin could protect them.
Ye Liangchen noticed the change in the businesswoman’s eyes and smiled secretly in his heart. It seemed that this elder sister was not a completely unreasonable person. He would have to “educate” her later and let her know what the law of true fragrance was.
Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, the bandit group suddenly sounded the call to withdraw their troops. They retreated like a tide and disappeared at the end of the desert in the blink of an eye, leaving only rolling dust.
Ye Liangchen looked at the direction where the thieves’ group was retreating. His tightly furrowed brows did not relax at all, but instead became even deeper. He always felt that the retreat of this group of thieves was a bit too hasty. It was definitely not a simple test, but a bigger conspiracy was brewing.
“Things may not be that simple.” Ye Liangchen muttered to himself, with a dangerous light flashing in his eyes.
018. Something must be wrong when things are abnormal (old version)
Ye Liangchen looked at the direction where the thieves’ group was retreating, and he always felt that something was wrong.
These guys retreated too easily, didn’t they?
It was as if it had been rehearsed in advance. They withdrew as soon as they were told to, without any delay.
There must be something wrong when things are abnormal. He doesn’t believe that these thieves will give up the fat meat they have got so easily.
“Everyone be careful, these thieves will definitely come again.” Ye Liangchen shouted to the caravan, with a hint of unquestionable majesty in his tone.
As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the caravan became more tense.
The people who had been somewhat relaxed tensed up again. Even the businesswoman who had been sarcastic towards Ye Liangchen put away her sarcastic expression and became cautious.
After all, no one wants to become a victim of a thief’s knife.
As the caravan went deeper into the desert, the dangers of the desert gradually became apparent.
The first problem was the water source. The water they carried was actually polluted, and a pungent strange smell came out of the bucket.
“What the hell, what’s going on?” Ye Liangchen frowned, looking at the polluted water source, and couldn’t help but swear, “This must be the work of those thieves!”
He felt like he had fallen into a script-killing scenario, and fate seemed to be deliberately creating trouble for him. This wave, this wave, was God messing with his mentality!
“It’s over, it’s over now. We’re going to die of thirst here without any water!” Someone in the caravan began to wail in despair.
The heat in the desert, coupled with the lack of water, put the entire caravan in a desperate situation.
Everyone’s lips were as cracked as turtle shells, and their throats felt like they were on fire, as if they would be roasted into a mummy in the desert in the next second.
A depressing atmosphere enveloped the entire caravan, like a dark cloud pressing down on one’s head, making it hard to breathe.
Ye Liangchen felt like his head was about to explode. This was not a game where you could be resurrected after death. This was the real world!
“No, we must find a way to solve the water problem.” Ye Liangchen gritted his teeth. He couldn’t just sit there and wait to die.
While observing the surrounding environment, he was thinking quickly about countermeasures. His mind was working rapidly, like a high-performance computer. Various plans kept emerging in his mind and being rejected.
Just then, he seemed to have discovered something.
He stopped and stared straight ahead, with a hint of excitement and hope in his eyes.
“Do you think the color of this sand seems a little different?” Ye Liangchen whispered to Ebisu beside him.
After being asked this, Ebisu also looked at the ground carefully.
“It seems… a little different,” Ebisu said hesitantly.
“Hmm…” Ye Liangchen ignored Ebisu and squatted down, gently digging away the sand on the surface with his hands.
He dug the sand faster and faster, as if he had discovered some treasure.
“There seems to be something down here!”
His voice broke off, his eyes widening.
Ye Liangchen carefully dug up the sand, his movements as gentle as if he was treating a rare treasure.
Finally, he felt his fingertips touching a hard object, which was cold and slightly damp.
He was delighted and quickened his movements.
With a “click”, he lifted up a stone slab covered with sand, and a cool vapor instantly emerged from the ground, carrying the fragrance of soil.
“Fuck! There is really water!” Ye Liangchen exclaimed. He widened his eyes and looked at the secret hidden in the desert.
I saw a small underground spring bubbling with water, the water was so clear that I could see the bottom, and there were stars on the surface of the water.
“There’s really water!” Ebisu also exclaimed. He got closer and took a look. The clear water made him feel as if he was in an oasis.
“Great!” The people in the caravan burst into cheers. They rushed over and surrounded the spring like a group of hungry birds.
“Hurry, fill the buckets!” The captain of the caravan was so excited that he was incoherent, and a long-lost smile appeared on his greedy face.
The business woman also changed her previous sarcastic look, and said to Ye Liangchen with a smile on her face: “Thanks to you, brother, you are so awesome!”
Ye Liangchen looked at everyone’s excitement and felt relieved.
He wiped the sweat from his head and thought: “Sure enough, knowledge is power!”
Just as the caravan members were happily replenishing their water supplies, a chaotic sound of footsteps suddenly came from a distance.
“Oh no, it’s them!” Ebisu’s face changed and he looked in horror at the direction where the sound came from.
They saw a group of thieves appear in their sight again. The difference from before was that this time they were followed by several ninjas wearing strange costumes. They looked gloomy.
“Hahaha, you idiots are really lucky. But you won’t be so lucky this time!” The thief leader laughed wildly and waved the scimitar in his hand.
“Brothers, kill them all! Don’t leave any alive!” The thieves’ leader gave an order, and the thieves pounced on the caravan like hungry wolves.
At the same time, the ninjas also moved. Instead of rushing directly towards the caravan, they went around to the back of the caravan, preparing to attack from behind.
The caravan members instantly fell into panic. They hurriedly picked up their weapons and prepared to resist.
There was a tense atmosphere in the air, as if a storm was about to come.
Ye Liangchen looked at the chaotic scene in front of him with a frown. He did not speak, but narrowed his eyes and observed the ninjas carefully.
“Something’s wrong…” Ye Liangchen muttered to himself, his eyes fixed on one of the ninjas.
“Their chakra flow…” Ye Liangchen was about to say his discovery, but stopped abruptly, his eyes became sharper.
There was a gleam in Ye Liangchen’s eyes, and a playful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Do these ninjas really think he is blind?
That clumsy chakra disguise was like the words “I am a spy” were written on his face.
“Teacher Ebisu, take everyone back first!” Ye Liangchen said as he moved his wrists, making a “crackling” sound, his eyes full of confidence, “Leave these scum to me!”
After saying that, Ye Liangchen flashed and rushed into the group of thieves like a ghost.
Every time he swung his fist, there was a sound of breaking through the air, and every punch hit the flesh, making the thieves scream and fall down in a large number in an instant.
Seeing this, the group of ninja spies could no longer hold back and took action.
Although their attacks were insidious and vicious, Ye Liangchen dodged them flexibly.
Ye Liangchen moved quickly as he shuttled between the thieves and ninjas. He made full use of the desert terrain, hiding behind sand dunes and coming out from underground, catching them off guard so that they couldn’t even touch the corner of his clothes.
Each of his attacks was extremely precise, just like opening a padlock, and he targeted the vital points.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
After a few muffled thuds, a few more unlucky guys were knocked out by Ye Liangchen, rolling on the ground like a rolling gourd, completely losing their combat effectiveness.
The female businessman was shocked as she watched Ye Liangchen slaughtering everyone in the crowd, like a god of war.
I thought this guy was just a Genin who could only complete missions, but I didn’t expect him to be so strong.
At this moment, a hidden weapon suddenly attacked, aiming directly at the back of the businesswoman.
The female businessman screamed and was about to close her eyes and wait for death, but she felt a tightening around her waist and the whole person was pulled over by a great force.
“Be careful!” Ye Liangchen’s voice sounded in her ears with a hint of concern.
The businesswoman looked at Ye Liangchen who was so close to her. The sweat on his forehead was clearly visible and she could smell a faint smell of sweat at the tip of her nose. His eyes were clear and firm, which made her heart skip a beat.
“Thank you…” the businesswoman whispered, with a barely perceptible tenderness in her tone.
Ye Liangchen just smiled faintly and then joined the battle again. He found that the thief leader had been standing in the distance watching the battle with a sinister smile on his face, as if he was planning some conspiracy.
“This guy must be up to something bad!” Ye Liangchen thought to himself, his eyes becoming more vigilant.
Suddenly, the thief leader took out a strange scroll, tore it open, and muttered something.
“Oh no, there’s something fishy!” Ye Liangchen’s heart tightened and he was about to stop it, but it was too late.
The thief leader smiled a look of success, and that smile made Ye Liangchen feel inexplicably uneasy.
019. It’s OK to admit your mistakes and correct them (old version)
The scroll was torn open, and a strange chakra wave spread out, and the air around it seemed to solidify.
The thief leader smiled sinisterly, and that smile made Ye Liangchen feel sick, as if he had eaten a fly.
This old guy must be holding back some big trick!
Ye Liangchen calmly opened his “Sharingan” – of course, he didn’t open his eyes, he just squinted them to make himself look sharper.
He noticed that whenever the caravan approached certain sand dunes, the thieves’ attacks would become extremely fierce, as if they were desperate for life, but at other times they would just slack off and not put in any effort.
“Something’s wrong!” Ye Liangchen muttered to himself, “There must be something wrong with these sand dunes!” He remembered what he had learned in the Ninja School before, some special ninjutsu that can change the terrain and create traps.
Could it be that…
A bold guess emerged in Ye Liangchen’s mind: the bandit leader wanted to use some kind of ninjutsu to change the terrain of these sand dunes and lead the caravan into a desperate situation!
Oh boy, you’re waiting here!
With such scheming, it would be a shame if he didn’t become a screenwriter in a palace fighting drama.
Thinking of this, Ye Liangchen quickly found the captain of the caravan and told him all his discoveries and guesses.
“Captain, I think there’s something wrong with those sand dunes! The thieves must be up to something, we have to take a detour!”
When the captain of the caravan heard this, his fat face was full of disdain. “Young man, you think too much, don’t you? It’s just a few sand dunes. We have been traveling all over the country for so many years, and we have seen everything. You are a Genin, what do you know?”
Ye Liangchen almost vomited blood.
Brother, you are the typical person who won’t cry until you see the coffin!
The situation is critical, why are you still taking advantage of your seniority?
“Captain, I guarantee on my personal integrity that there is definitely something wrong with those sand dunes! Believe me this once!” Ye Liangchen stamped his feet in anxiety.
“Character? Do you have any personality? You are a roll king, you only know how to snatch missions every day, and now you come to interfere with my command?” The captain of the caravan looked contemptuous, “Don’t make alarmist remarks here and ruin my plan!”
The business woman also chimed in, “That’s right! What does a little brat know? Captain, don’t listen to him, let’s keep moving forward!”
Ye Liangchen took a deep breath and tried hard to suppress the urge to hit someone.
“Okay, if you don’t listen to me, don’t regret it later!”
He turned to look at Ebisu, hoping that this special jonin could say something fair.
However, Ebisu just shrank his neck, looking as if it had nothing to do with him.
Well, I can’t count on you!
“Since you insist on doing this…” Ye Liangchen sneered, “Then let’s wait and see!”
Ye Liangchen was too lazy to talk nonsense with them. He ran directly to the back of the caravan and found a few guys who were willing to believe him.
“Brothers, follow me if you want to live!” He pointed to a path away from those suspicious sand dunes, “Let’s take a detour, and we’ll be fine!”
The guys looked at each other, and finally chose to believe Ye Liangchen.
After all, compared to the stubborn caravan captain, Ye Liangchen, the “King of Konoha”, seems to have more credibility.
Ye Liangchen took these guys and quietly dug a big hole near the sand dunes far away from the main body of the caravan. They then covered it with some branches and camouflage nets to make a simple trap.
After doing all this, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he thought to himself: “Little guys, you are too young to fight with me!”
Sure enough, when the caravan approached those suspicious sand dunes, the thieves attacked frantically as if they were injected with chicken blood.
The caravan was caught off guard and was thrown into chaos.
The thieves who were ambushing near the sand dunes took advantage of the chaos to lure the caravan towards the trap set by Ye Liangchen.
“Now!” Ye Liangchen gave an order, and he and several of his men pulled the pre-set mechanism together.
There was a loud “boom” and the sand dunes collapsed. The thieves who were in the front fell into the trap and were knocked unconscious.
Ye Liangchen stood at the edge of the trap, looking at the struggling thief below, with a confident smile of “everything is under control” on his face.
“That’s it? You still want to trick me? You are so naive!”
When the thief leader saw that his plan was discovered, he was so angry that his face turned green.
He jumped down from the sand dune and glared at Ye Liangchen fiercely, “Boy, you dare to ruin my good deeds!”
“Ruin your business? Don’t you see that you are doing human things?” Ye Liangchen stared back fearlessly, “With your little tricks, you still want to fight me?”
The thief leader roared and attacked Ye Liangchen, waving his weapon.
His attack speed was extremely fast and his strength was amazing. Ye Liangchen found it difficult to resist for a while.
Dust was flying everywhere, covering the sky and the sun. The figures of the two men kept interweaving in the dust, and the sound of weapons colliding was sonorous and deafening.
Ye Liangchen was dodging the attacks of the thief leader while accumulating chakra.
He knew that he would definitely not be able to defeat his opponent in a head-on confrontation, and he had to find the right opportunity to fight back.
“Is that all you can do? I thought you were so powerful!” Ye Liangchen deliberately provoked the thieves leader, trying to anger him and make him reveal his weakness.
The thief leader was indeed enraged, and his attacks became more fierce and deadly, with complete disregard for his own defense.
“Oh, I’ve been waiting for you!” Ye Liangchen showed a hint of sneer at the corner of his mouth, with a gleam of light in his eyes, “Take it!”
He suddenly jumped back, put his hands together, and said, “Let me show you what is called… Konoha Taijutsu Secret Technique·Thousand Years of Killing·Enhanced Version!”
Of course, he didn’t really use the Thousand Years Kill, he just feinted.
While the thief leader was stunned, Ye Liangchen instantly launched a real attack – a normal attack!
Ye Liangchen’s figure flashed and he instantly appeared in front of the thief leader and punched him hard in the stomach.
With a dull “bang”, the thief leader flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, fell heavily to the ground, and spit out blood.
“Fuck, this guy is too ruthless!” Ebisu, who was hiding in the distance, was stunned.
“Too strong! He is worthy of being the King of Konoha!” The guys in the caravan cheered and looked at Ye Liangchen with admiration in their eyes.
The businesswoman was so excited that her face turned red and her eyes were full of stars.
She didn’t expect that this seemingly inconspicuous King of Rolls was so powerful!
“Ye Liangchen…you are so awesome…” She walked up to Ye Liangchen and lowered her head shyly, “I’m sorry for what happened before…”
Ye Liangchen waved his hand and said, “It’s okay. It’s good enough as long as you know your mistakes and can correct them.”
“To express my apology…” The business woman mustered up her courage, stood on tiptoe, and kissed Ye Liangchen gently on the face, “Thank you for saving us!”
Ye Liangchen touched the cheek that was kissed, smiled and said, “It’s my duty, it’s my duty.” There was a hint of ambiguity in the air around them.
At this moment, a group of people wearing Sand Village ninja uniforms appeared in front of everyone, led by a tall man with short red hair – Maki.
“We are ninjas from the Sand Village, and we are here for a routine inspection.” Maki said coldly, but his eyes stayed on Ye Liangchen. “You are the King of Konoha, Ye Liangchen?”
Ye Liangchen’s heart trembled, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.
He looked at Maki warily, “It’s me, what’s going on?”
Maki’s mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a meaningful smile…
020. Obey the law? (Old version)
Ye Liangchen narrowed his eyes and looked at the ninja from the Sand Village in front of him.
With red hair and sharp eyes, it’s obvious that he’s not a good person.
There was a hint of gunpowder in the air, and the atmosphere was somewhat subtle.
Although his heart was filled with alarm bells, complaining that “this isn’t going to be another plot of catching a mole”, his face remained expressionless. He even took a step forward with a faint smile on his face.
“Hey, big brother, routine inspection? I wonder what you’re checking? We are good citizens, law-abiding small vendors. It’s not easy to run a business in the wind and sun.”
Maki snorted coldly, his eyes as sharp as an eagle’s, scanning Ye Liangchen as if he wanted to see through him.
“Abiding by the law? Haha, who knows if you are secretly smuggling goods or engaging in illegal activities.” He paused and raised his voice a few degrees, “For the safety of the Sand Village, we must conduct a thorough inspection!”
When the caravan captain heard this, he became anxious.
His weather-beaten face was full of anxiety, and the wrinkles on his face were squeezed into a ball.
“Mr. Ninja, we are legitimate businessmen. Our goods are legally bought and sold. There are no contraband items! How can I do business if you rummage around like this?” He rubbed his hands, his tone almost pleading.
The female businessman also looked at Ye Liangchen worriedly. Although she had a good impression of the King of Curls of Konoha, she was powerless facing the ninjas of the Sand Village.
Machi remained unmoved and instead became even more tough.
“Stop talking nonsense! This is a routine inspection, you must cooperate! Otherwise, don’t blame us for being rude!” He waved his hand, and the Sand Village ninjas behind him immediately dispersed, looking ready to take action.
The captain of the caravan was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, but he dared not resist. He could only watch as the Sand Village ninjas began to check the goods.
The goods were roughly turned over and over, and the neatly arranged boxes were thrown everywhere, which made the captain of the caravan feel heartbroken.
He glared at Maki angrily but dared not say anything.
The atmosphere around was becoming increasingly tense, like a taut string that could break at any time.
Ye Liangchen took it all in, thinking to himself, “It’s not that simple.” He took a step forward, patted the captain of the caravan on the shoulder, and signaled him to stay calm.
Then, he turned to look at Maki with a firm gaze, and slowly said: “My friend from the Sand Village, I think…”
Ye Liangchen stepped forward, crossed his arms, looked calm and said in a clear voice: “My friend from the Sand Village, I think you may have some misunderstandings. Our caravan is setting out from the Fire Country to trade with the Wind Country. All goods have formal procedures, and the procedures are complete, and there is no deception to anyone. If you don’t believe me, take a look.” After that, he took out a thick stack of documents from his arms and handed them to Maki.
Maki took the document, flipped through it roughly, and frowned slightly.
These documents do seem to be fine and the stamps are genuine.
He cursed “bad luck” in his heart, but remained calm on the surface.
“Humph, even if the document is real, who knows if you have any smuggled goods?”
Ye Liangchen smiled slightly and said confidently: “My friend, what you said is wrong. We are doing a legitimate business, and what matters is integrity. If we smuggle private goods, wouldn’t that damage our reputation? Our caravan is a well-known conscientious merchant with a great reputation!” He paused and added, “If you don’t believe me, you can ask people around you to see how reputable our caravan is.”
Maki looked around and found that the passers-by around him were looking at Ye Liangchen with approval.
He felt even more upset, but couldn’t find any excuse to continue making things difficult.
His arrogance had diminished somewhat, and his tone had softened a bit.
“Okay, since the paperwork is fine, then we will…”
Before Maki could finish his words, a ninja from the Sand Village leaned over behind him and whispered something in his ear.
Maki’s face suddenly turned gloomy.
“Wait!” he shouted, “I changed my mind! We must search! You, go search!”
Seeing this, Ye Liangchen said to himself, “As expected.”
He immediately organized the caravan members to resist, and calmly commanded: “Don’t panic! We have done nothing wrong, don’t be afraid of them! If they dare to mess around, we will fight them!”
Under Ye Liangchen’s command, the caravan members quickly formed a defensive formation and surrounded the goods in the middle.
The Sand Village ninjas rushed forward and the two sides immediately started fighting.
Dust was flying all around, shouting and fighting sounds mixed together, and the scene was in chaos.
Ye Liangchen’s eyes were sharp as he scanned the battle situation around him, with a barely perceptible smile on the corner of his mouth.
He took a deep breath and lowered his body slightly, like a cheetah ready to pounce.
“It’s time…” he whispered to himself.
Ye Liangchen moved!
He rushed into the crowd of Sand Village ninjas like a cannonball.
His figure was ghostly, his movements were as fast as lightning, his punches and kicks were swift and every move was deadly.
“Bang, bang, bang!” After a few muffled sounds, several Sand Ninjas fell to the ground, holding their stomachs and wailing on the ground.
“That’s it? That’s it?” Ye Liangchen did not forget to make a few sarcastic remarks while fighting. His arrogance made him a role model for those who deserve a beating.
Maki was stunned watching from the side, his jaw almost dropped to the ground.
He could never have imagined that a seemingly ordinary Genin could have such powerful strength.
He cursed “Damn it” in his heart and quickly commanded the remaining Sand Ninjas to besiege Ye Liangchen together.
“Liangchen, come on! Liangchen, you’re great!” The female businessman waved her fists and cheered for Ye Liangchen. She looked so excited that people who didn’t know her would think she was the president of Ye Liangchen’s fan club.
When Ye Liangchen heard the female businessman’s voice, his heart warmed and he fought even harder.
While dodging the attacks of the Sand Village ninjas, he did not forget to wink at the female businessman. There was an indescribable ambiguous atmosphere between the two of them.
“Oh, not bad! Little sister, you have good vision!” Ye Liangchen did not forget to tease the female businessman while fighting.
The businesswoman’s face turned red because of his teasing. She glared at him coquettishly, but the corners of her mouth could not help but rise.
Just when the two sides were fighting hard, there was a burst of hurried horse hoof sounds suddenly heard in the distance.
“Da da da…” The sound was getting closer and closer, as if thousands of troops were galloping towards us.
Ye Liangchen frowned and thought to himself: “What’s going on? Are there reinforcements?” He stopped what he was doing, listened attentively, trying to determine the identity of the person coming.
The sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer, the ground began to shake slightly, and a murderous atmosphere filled the air.
“Who is it?” Ye Liangchen whispered to himself, his eyes full of vigilance…
021. Anti-routine (old version)
“Da da da…” The sound of horse hooves was like the death warrant of the god of death, striking in everyone’s heart.
Ye Liangchen frowned. What the hell, what kind of monster is this?
Is it buy one get one free, or a set meal?
While signaling the caravan members to huddle together and pick up their weapons to prepare for defense, he stared at the direction where the sound of horse hooves came from like a radar.
Dust was flying, the earth was shaking, and a group of guys riding tall horses appeared in everyone’s sight like a swarm of locusts.
Each of them looked ferocious, waving shiny scimitars in their hands, and it was obvious that they were not good people.
Ye Liangchen’s heart skipped a beat. Oh my god, is he here to “pick up a bargain”?
We haven’t dealt with the guys from the Sand Village yet, and now another one is coming?
Is this old guy, Fate, dissatisfied that his life is too easy and is making things difficult for him?
This group of newly appeared thieves obviously saw the tense situation here, and each of them showed a greedy smile on their face.
They did not join the battle immediately, but watched from afar, like a group of hyenas waiting for an opportunity, ready to strike while the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, when both sides were exhausted.
The smell of gunpowder in the air suddenly became several times stronger. The already tense atmosphere was now like a taut string that could break at any time.
Ebisu was so frightened that he hid behind the carriage. He only dared to poke his head out secretly, and his legs were shaking like sieves.
The captain of the caravan had a pale face, as if he had seen himself being robbed, and he was heartbroken.
Although the business woman was a little scared, her eyes never left Ye Liangchen, her eyes were full of worry and…
A subtle adoration.
Ye Liangchen took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
He looked around at the three forces, and it felt like a thousand horses were galloping through his heart.
Did I get the wrong script?
This isn’t a Genin mission, it’s clearly hell difficulty!
He frowned and his brain worked quickly, like an overclocked computer, analyzing the situation in front of him.
He thought to himself, damn it, I can’t play by the rules anymore, I have to do something different.
Just when everyone thought he would do something surprising, he suddenly grinned, a sly light flashed in his eyes, and then he took a step and walked towards the newly appeared thieves group…
Ye Liangchen walked up to the new group of thieves, put on a harmless smile and revealed a mouthful of white teeth.
“My dear brothers, why don’t we work together?” As soon as he said this, the whole place fell into silence, and you could hear a pin drop.
Ebisu’s jaw almost dropped to the ground. Is this kid crazy?
Go negotiate cooperation with the thieves?
The captain of the caravan covered his chest, feeling like he would pass out at any moment. This was the family business accumulated by several generations!
The female businessman looked at Ye Liangchen with a complicated expression. This guy really doesn’t play by the rules.
Maki from the Sand Village narrowed his eyes and stared at Ye Liangchen. What is this kid up to?
The leader of the new bandit gang was a burly man with a face full of flesh. He looked Ye Liangchen up and down as if he were a fool.
“Boy, are you sane? Want to cooperate with us? What qualifications do you have?”
Ye Liangchen chuckled and rubbed his hands. “Of course we have the qualifications! Look, these guys from the Sand Village are so arrogant that they definitely don’t take you seriously. Let’s join forces and kill them first, and then we can divide the supplies of this caravan equally, how about that?”
The sturdy man was stunned. He didn’t expect Ye Liangchen to make such a bold suggestion.
He looked at his men behind him, then looked at the Sand Village ninjas in the distance, and fell into deep thought.
At this moment, Maki from the Sand Village moved.
He roared angrily: “Little brat, how dare you betray Konoha!” Before he finished speaking, the kunai in his hand turned into a ray of cold light and rushed straight towards Ye Liangchen.
Ye Liangchen was prepared and dodged the kunai by leaning sideways, while silently muttering in his heart: Working people are working people, and working people will never stand up!
Start with normal attack!
He seemed to be waving his fists in panic, but in fact each punch landed accurately on the Sand Village ninja, accumulating chakra.
When the new group of thieves saw the Sand Village ninja attacking Ye Liangchen, they thought they had an opportunity, so they drew their weapons and rushed forward, yelling.
For a moment, the sound of shouting and killing was deafening, the dust was flying, and the situation was completely chaotic.
Ye Liangchen dodged left and right in the melee, as slippery as a loach.
He looked at the chaotic scene in front of him, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and whispered: “The good show has just begun…”
“Fuck, this guy is some good stuff!” The burly man from the new thieves’ group couldn’t help but swear when he saw Ye Liangchen moving freely among the crowd.
I originally thought that this guy was just a young and ignorant boy, but I didn’t expect that he was actually a pig in disguise!
Ye Liangchen was like a player with cheats, attacking crazily between the two sides.
The ninjas from the Sand Village flew their kunai, but he always dodged them skillfully. Occasionally, he would punch them back, leaving them with a black eye and a swollen face.
The new band of thieves’ scimitars chopped with great force, but they could not do anything to his nimble body. Instead, he seized their flaws and hit them right in the anus with a “Thousand Years Kill”, causing them to scream in pain.
“This… is this kid really a Genin?” Ebisu hid behind the carriage, looking at Ye Liangchen who seemed possessed by the god of war, his jaw almost dropped.
He felt that his worldview had been severely impacted. When did the Genin become so powerful?
Our businesswoman’s eyes were almost full of stars at this moment.
She looked at Ye Liangchen moving swiftly in the crowd, her heart beating fast, he was so handsome!
He is simply her dream lover!
Ye Liangchen would occasionally look at her with a hint of tenderness in his eyes. Their eyes met in the air, as if an electric current was passing through, and a sweet smell filled the air.
Just when Ye Liangchen was having a great time, the sky suddenly darkened.
The wind was howling, yellow sand was filling the sky, and a strong smell of a sandstorm was blowing in the face.
“Oh no, a sandstorm is coming!” Ye Liangchen’s heart sank. This was no joke. Encountering a sandstorm in the desert would be a life-threatening situation!
He took a deep breath and his eyes became sharp.
This battle is not over yet, a bigger crisis is about to come!
Ye Liangchen looked up at the sky and thought to himself: Oh God, you are going to kill me!
“Everyone…” Ye Liangchen’s voice was drowned by the wind and sand, but he still opened his mouth firmly, ready to issue new instructions.
022. It’s a bit difficult (old version)
“Everyone! Assemble!” Although Ye Liangchen’s voice was torn into pieces by the strong wind, it still carried unquestionable majesty.
He was like a flag standing tall in the wind, bringing hope to everyone.
The caravan members were in panic and ran around like headless flies, but under Ye Liangchen’s command, they gradually gathered together.
While organizing the defense, Ye Liangchen vigilantly observed the surrounding situation.
Flying sand and rocks covered the sky and the sun, and visibility was extremely low.
The wind and sand hit my face, as sharp as a knife, making it difficult to breathe.
He squinted his eyes, trying to find any traces of the Sand Village ninjas and the thieves’ group in the dim world.
“Damn, this sandstorm comes at a really bad time!” Ye Liangchen cursed in his heart. This was a hellish start.
He felt like he was caught in a sandwich, attacked from two sides.
On one side there are natural disasters, and on the other side there are man-made disasters, which has plunged him into deep entanglement.
“Should we deal with the sandstorm first? No, what if the people from the Hidden Sand Village and the bandit gang launch a sneak attack during the chaos? The caravan will be doomed. Should we deal with them first? No, either. This sandstorm looks so fierce. If we can’t avoid it in time, we’ll all die here.” Ye Liangchen’s brain was working rapidly, weighing the pros and cons.
He clenched his teeth and frowned, as if there were two little people debating fiercely in his heart.
One said, “Saving your life is more important. Let’s avoid the sandstorm first!” The other retorted, “A real man has his share of things to do and his share of things not to do! How can you abandon the caravan?”
These two thoughts kept colliding in his mind, making him feel extremely anxious and irritated.
Beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down his forehead, mixing with the wind and sand, leaving muddy marks on his face.
“What should I do? What should I do?” Ye Liangchen’s inner struggle became more and more intense, and his expression became more and more solemn.
Suddenly, he said, “In that case, then…” He took a deep breath and said to Ebisu beside him, “Teacher Ebisu, you take the caravan members…”
“Teacher Ebisu, take the caravan members to take shelter over there! I will deal with them!” Ye Liangchen pointed to the back of a huge rock in the distance, his tone firm.
Ebisu wanted to say something, but when he saw Ye Liangchen’s eyes, he knew that persuasion was futile, so he could only do as he was told helplessly.
Ye Liangchen took a deep breath, concentrated his chakra in his feet, and shot towards the enemy camp like an arrow.
The sandstorm became his best cover, and his figure was looming in the wind and sand, like a ghost.
“Who is it?!” Maki, a ninja from the Sand Village, was the first to notice the movement. He looked around vigilantly, but could only see a blurry yellow.
Suddenly, a black shadow flashed before his eyes, and before he could react, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen.
“Shit! A sneak attack?” Maki covered his stomach and bent over in pain.
He never thought that someone would take the initiative to attack under such circumstances.
The leader of the bandit gang also noticed something was wrong. He shouted, “Brothers, be careful! Someone is attacking us!”
Ye Liangchen’s attacks were as fast as lightning and every move was deadly.
The ninjas of the Sand Village and members of the thieves’ group were all hit, and screams were heard one after another in the wind and sand.
“Who is this guy? So fierce?” Maki was horrified. He felt like a mouse being teased by a cat, unable to fight back.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the leader of the bandit group immediately ordered: “Retreat! Retreat first!”
However, would Ye Liangchen let them escape so easily?
He sneered: “Want to run? Not that easy!”
After Maki and the thief leader reacted and realized how powerful their opponent was, they decided to join forces to fight Ye Liangchen.
Maki’s wind-style ninjutsu combined with the thief leader’s earth-style ninjutsu formed a series of powerful attack waves that attacked Ye Liangchen in an overwhelming manner.
Ye Liangchen dodged and moved in the violent waves of attack. His figure floated in the sand and dust, like a ghost, making him elusive.
Every dodge was extremely thrilling, but every time it was successfully avoided.
The surrounding dust was stirred up by the attack, forming a huge vortex that seemed to swallow up everything.
Ye Liangchen felt like he was in the center of a storm and could be swept into it and torn to pieces at any time.
“This guy is a bit difficult to deal with…” Ye Liangchen wiped the sand off his face. He felt the chakra in his body surging and a powerful force was accumulating…
“Let me see what other tricks you have!” Ye Liangchen raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a confident smile.
He slowly raised his right hand, and in his palm, a visible energy was gathering…
Ye Liangchen slowly raised his right hand, and it was not a bluff.
In the gaps that were difficult for others to notice, he had already accumulated enough chakra.
The wind was howling and sand and rocks were flying, but they could not conceal the powerful aura rising from him.
He clenched his fists suddenly, lightning flashed on his palms, and a surge of power rushed through his body, as if it was about to break out of his body.
“Take it! Lightning Release: Thousand Years of Killing: Enhanced Edition!” Ye Liangchen shouted loudly, and his fist wrapped in powerful chakra, with the force of thunder, smashed towards Maki and the thief leader fiercely.
“Boom!” With a loud bang, violent energy swept out, like the shock wave of an explosion, shaking away the surrounding sand and dust.
Maki and the thief leader were caught off guard and were blown away by the powerful blow. They fell heavily to the ground, spitting blood, and were unable to get up for a long time.
“Fuck! What the hell is this?” Maki struggled to get up. He felt like his internal organs were displaced and his whole body was sore and weak.
The thief leader was even more horrified. This kid looked so young, but he possessed such terrifying power!
When the dust settled, Ye Liangchen stood proudly in the sandstorm, like a descending god of war, majestic and awe-inspiring.
His figure seemed exceptionally tall in the dim light, like an insurmountable mountain.
At this moment, a figure, regardless of danger, broke through the obstacles of wind and sand and rushed over.
It’s that businesswoman!
She threw herself into Ye Liangchen’s arms regardless of everything, hugged him tightly, her eyes full of love and dependence.
“Mr. Liangchen, I’m so glad that you’re okay!” the female businessman choked with sobs, her voice trembling slightly.
Ye Liangchen also hugged her tightly, feeling her soft body, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.
Upon seeing this, the surrounding caravan members burst into warm cheers.
They witnessed Ye Liangchen’s heroic performance with their own eyes, and their hearts were filled with admiration and gratitude.
The sandstorm gradually subsided and the sky turned blue again.
Ye Liangchen successfully led the caravan to repel various forces, and the caravan personnel and supplies arrived at the destination unscathed.
He became a hero in the eyes of everyone and was respected and loved by everyone.
Ye Liangchen looked into the distance, his heart full of expectations for the future, and at the same time, he opened up new possibilities for the next chapter of the story.
The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a mysterious smile: “The way back seems to be not peaceful…”
023. Prepare for a rainy day (old version)
The afterglow of the setting sun fell on the town, giving the buildings a golden hue.
Ye Liangchen stood on a high place, looking at the desert in the distance, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.
The journey back is not easy, and you need to plan ahead, such as preparing sufficient supplies, arranging a suitable route, and even anticipating possible emergencies…
He has already made many plans in his mind and is even more worried than his mother.
However, plans cannot keep up with changes, and the captain of the caravan actually wants to add some extra drama at the last minute!
“Hey, little brother Ye Liangchen, look how lively this town is. Why don’t we stay for a few more days and do some more business before going back?” The captain rubbed his hands, his eyes shining with the light of money, as if he saw countless banknotes waving to him.
Ye Liangchen rolled his eyes inwardly. This old guy is really obsessed with money!
“Captain, our mission is to escort the goods to their safe arrival, not to do business. Go back sooner and be safe sooner.” He explained patiently, but complained in his heart: This captain is probably a reincarnation of a money-grubber?
“Oh, just a few days, just a few days! It won’t take too long!” The captain still insisted, looking as if he had made up his mind.
Ye Liangchen sighed. This old stubborn man would not cry until he saw the coffin!
There was a tense atmosphere in the air, like the calm before the storm.
At this time, the female businessman stood up and supported Ye Liangchen: “Captain, Mr. Liangchen is right, safety first! Let’s set off as soon as possible.” As soon as she finished speaking, several members of the caravan who wanted to stay and make money became unhappy.
“What do you know? You just meddle in other people’s business!” “That’s right, we also want to make more money, how does it bother you?”
The female businessman showed no sign of weakness and argued, “You have to live to spend the money you earn! If something happens along the way, it will be too late to regret!” The two sides argued back and forth, and the scene was very chaotic for a while.
Ye Liangchen watched coldly, with a barely perceptible curve at the corner of his mouth.
Everything is under his control…
He gently knocked on the wooden box beside him, making two muffled “dong” sounds, and then slowly opened his mouth: “Everyone…” “Everyone, please be patient.” Ye Liangchen’s voice was not loud, but it seemed to have magic, instantly drowning out the noisy quarrels.
He cleared his throat and continued, “I know everyone wants to make more money, but our first priority is to return to Konoha Village safely. The reward for this escort mission is already considerable. There is no need to risk your life here for a small profit. Besides, do you really think this town is that safe?”
He paused, looking at those who still wanted to stay, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone: “Don’t forget, we encountered a lot of trouble along the way. Those desert bandits are not easy to deal with. Do you really think they will let us go easily? Moreover, the security of this town… Hehe, do you think it can guarantee our safety?”
Ye Liangchen’s words were like sharp knives, piercing the most vulnerable parts of people’s hearts.
Those who originally wanted to stay were suddenly speechless, with hesitation written all over their faces.
Yes, no one wants to risk their life for that little bit of money.
Besides, this journey is indeed quite dangerous, and Ye Liangchen is indeed reliable, so it’s always right to follow him!
“Mr. Liangchen is right!” A caravan member who had been hesitant took the lead and stood up to express his attitude.
Immediately afterwards, others also expressed their agreement. It seems that Ye Liangchen’s prestige is really well-deserved.
The captain of the caravan looked very ugly when he saw this scene.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but couldn’t find a suitable reason to refute.
After all, everything Ye Liangchen said made sense, and he really didn’t want to make things difficult for himself. It was a bit embarrassing for him!
Ye Liangchen looked around at the crowd, a barely perceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he thought: Hehe, a bunch of fence-sitters, aren’t they all under my control?
He waved his hand and said confidently: “Since everyone has no objection, let’s go according to the original plan and set off early tomorrow morning! Everyone go back and have a good rest and recharge your energy!”
However, at this moment, a sudden noise broke the tranquility of the town.
“Ahhh! Guys, charge!”
Accompanied by a deafening roar, a group of ragged thieves, waving swords, rushed over from all directions.
They have hideous and ferocious faces, and it’s obvious at first glance that they are not good people.
The leader was the desert bandit leader who was beaten away by Ye Liangchen last time. His face still had bruises from the previous beating, making him look even more ferocious.
He waved the scimitar in his hand, pointed it at the caravan, and shouted frantically: “Today, I will repay you a hundredfold for the last time! No one can escape!!”
The caravan members were thrown into chaos in an instant. They were terrified and ran away in panic. Screams and cries were heard everywhere, and the scene was in chaos.
The business woman tightly grasped Ye Liangchen’s sleeve, her face pale and her whole body trembling: “Mr. Liangchen, what should we do?”
Ye Liangchen seemed exceptionally calm. He then patted the businesswoman on the shoulder, motioning her to rest assured, and then whispered to the air around him, “Friends from the Anbu, come out.”
Ye Liangchen curled the corners of his mouth, revealing a smile that indicated “everything is under control”.
He quickly arranged the caravan members to stand in a pre-planned formation and whispered to them to cooperate with the Konoha Anbu ninjas hiding in the dark.
“Brothers, it’s time to show the true strength of our Konoha Genin! Let them see what professionalism is!”
The thieves rushed into the town aggressively, but they had no idea that danger was approaching.
“Hehe, these stupid fishes think we are soft persimmons!” said a member of the caravan in a low voice.
As soon as he finished speaking, the pre-buried trap was triggered, and the ground suddenly collapsed, swallowing up the thieves who were in the front.
“Oh my God! What the hell?!” “Help!” Screams rang out one after another, accompanied by clouds of flying dust, and the scene was once very chaotic.
Then, all kinds of hidden weapons and shurikens flew out like raindrops from the roofs and streets, accurately hitting the thieves.
“Ouch! My butt!” “My eyes!” The thieves ran away in panic, looking very embarrassed.
Ye Liangchen stood on a high place, giving orders with confidence, like a general planning a strategy.
“Brothers, step up your efforts! Let them know why the flowers are so red!”
Under Ye Liangchen’s command, the caravan members and Konoha’s Anbu ninjas worked closely together to defeat the thieves without any chance of fighting back.
“The wind is strong, run!” Seeing that the situation was not good, the thief leader left his brothers behind and ran away first.
The other thieves also fled in all directions, abandoning their weapons and armor, wishing their parents had given them two more legs.
When the dust settled, Ye Liangchen stood there, looking majestic, like a god descending from heaven.
The businesswoman’s eyes were full of admiration. She walked up to Ye Liangchen and shyly handed him a handkerchief embroidered with delicate patterns.
“Mr. Liangchen, thank you for your hard work.” Ye Liangchen took the handkerchief, and the two looked at each other. There was a hint of ambiguity in the air.
When the caravan members around saw this scene, they all smiled and said “I understand”.
Just when everyone thought the crisis was over and they could breathe a sigh of relief, Ebisu walked up to Ye Liangchen with a serious expression.
“Ye Liangchen, I just received news from the Anbu…” He paused, his tone became a little nervous, “The Sand Village may have set up checkpoints on our way back…” Ye Liangchen frowned and stared into the distance, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
The caravan members also began to whisper, with worry written all over their faces.
“It seems that this game has just begun…”
024. Sand Hidden Stage (Old Version)
When Ye Liangchen heard the news that the Sand Village had set up a checkpoint, his eyebrows raised and a gleam of light flashed in his deep eyes.
“Set up a checkpoint? It’s a small scene!” The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a confident smile.
The caravan members gathered around like ants in a panic, buzzing around and talking in a flurry.
“The levels in Sand Village are notoriously difficult!”
“I heard they will ask for a huge toll!”
“We’re done for now, our goods will definitely be seized!”
The captain of the caravan was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. His fat face was covered with sweat. He said with a sad face: “What should I do? My hard-earned money is gone!”
Ye Liangchen looked at the panicked look of the crowd and thought to himself, “Calm down, calm down, it’s just a basic operation, why are you panicking!” He clapped his hands and signaled everyone to be quiet, “Everyone, don’t worry, there will always be a way out, I will find a way to solve it.”
Although he appeared calm on the surface, Ye Liangchen was secretly complaining: “What is the Sand Village up to? Are they kidding me? This fate is too against me!”
A few days later, the caravan encountered the checkpoint of the Sand Village in a desolate Gobi desert.
Several ninjas wearing Sand Village uniforms blocked the caravan’s way.
The leading Sand Village ninja said in a serious tone, “It’s a routine inspection. All goods must be inspected. In addition, the toll is 100,000 taels per person!”
“One hundred thousand taels?! Why don’t you just go and rob them!” The captain of the caravan was furious when he heard this. His fat face turned red like a ripe persimmon. “This is simply blackmail!”
The Sand Village ninja sneered: “Love you or not, if you don’t, then go back!”
The air was filled with the smell of gunpowder and the tense atmosphere was suffocating.
Ye Liangchen took a deep breath, walked between the two sides, with a warm smile on his face.
“Big brother, let’s talk nicely. Harmony brings wealth…” He laughed while secretly observing these Sand Village ninjas and thinking of a countermeasure in his mind.
Suddenly, Ye Liangchen’s eyes fixed, and he saw a familiar figure standing behind the checkpoint, looking at him with a half-smile…
“Maji!” Ye Liangchen was shocked.
Ye Liangchen curled the corners of his mouth, revealing a smile that said “everything is under control”.
“Brother Maki, long time no see. How are you?” He deliberately raised his voice to ensure that all the Sand Ninjas at the checkpoint could hear him.
When the ninjas heard the name “Maki”, they were obviously stunned and their expressions became a little flustered.
Ye Liangchen laughed secretly in his heart: “It seems that Maki is quite intimidating among this group of people!”
He cleared his throat, pointed at the sign at the checkpoint and said, “Big brother, your sign says ‘Toll, 50,000 taels per person’, how come it has become 100,000 taels here? Did your physical education teacher teach you math?” The Sand Village ninja’s face froze and he stammered, unable to speak.
Ye Liangchen continued, “Could it be that the Sand Village is short of money recently and has to rely on small vendors like us to generate income? This is not good. It will affect the international image of the Sand Village!”
The Sand Village ninja was so embarrassed that he was speechless. In the end, he had to change his words dejectedly: “Ahem, that… it’s fifty thousand taels, fifty thousand taels, we made a mistake.” The caravan members immediately cheered and gave Ye Liangchen a thumbs up.
“Little brother Ye Liangchen, you are so amazing! You dealt with them in just a few words!”
“Yes, thanks to you, otherwise we would have lost a lot of money!”
“Ye Liangchen, you are simply our savior!”
Ye Liangchen waved his hands modestly: “No big deal, no big deal, basic operation, don’t be stupid.” But he was secretly happy in his heart: “Hehe, you are still too young to fight with me!”
However, the story does not end there.
Several Sand Ninjas hid in the dark, staring at Ye Liangchen with vicious eyes.
One of the ninjas whispered, “This kid is too arrogant. We must teach him a lesson!” Another ninja nodded and said, “When they let down their guard, we will take action!”
Just as the caravan was about to pass the checkpoint, those Sand Ninjas suddenly jumped up and shot shurikens at the caravan members like raindrops.
Ye Liangchen’s eyes flashed and he shouted, “Be careful!” He rushed forward and stood in front of the caravan members.
The kunai and shuriken collided, making a harsh metallic collision sound.
There are so many Sand Village ninjas that Ye Liangchen gradually feels overwhelmed.
“Ye Liangchen, be careful!” the captain of the caravan shouted in horror.
A Sand Ninja grinned and said, “Boy, you’re dead!” He raised his kunai and fiercely stabbed Ye Liangchen…
Ye Liangchen smiled slightly: “This has just begun…”
The corners of Ye Liangchen’s mouth rose slightly, revealing a scornful smile.
“That’s it?” He moved his wrist, and the bones made a crackling sound, as if containing huge power.
The Sand Village ninjas were stunned. They didn’t expect that this seemingly thin Genin could have such a powerful aura.
“Next, it’s my turn!” Ye Liangchen shouted in a low voice, and his figure instantly disappeared from the spot.
The Sand Village ninjas only felt a flash before their eyes, and before they could react what was happening, they felt a huge force coming at them.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!” A series of dull impact sounds rang out, and the Sand Ninjas flew out like kites with broken strings, fell heavily to the ground, groaning in pain.
Each of Ye Liangchen’s attacks was precise and powerful, and so fast that it was difficult to capture with the naked eye.
“This…how is this possible?!” The remaining Sand Village ninjas looked at Ye Liangchen in horror. They could never have imagined that a Genin could possess such terrifying strength.
Ye Liangchen dusted off his body and said with a relaxed look: “I told you, you are too young to fight with me!” He stood there, his figure as straight as a pine tree, exuding strong self-confidence.
The female businessman watched Ye Liangchen fight nervously from the side, her heart in her throat.
After seeing his victory, she breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes full of admiration.
She ran to Ye Liangchen and asked with concern: “Ye Liangchen, are you okay?”
Ye Liangchen looked at the concerned look in the businesswoman’s eyes, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.
He smiled gently and said, “I’m fine, just a minor injury.” The ambiguous atmosphere between the two of them permeated the air, and the caravan members around them all smiled knowingly.
Just as the caravan was preparing to move on, a strange wind suddenly blew up in the desert, sending sand and rocks flying and covering the sky and the sun.
The caravan’s compass began to spin wildly and lost its direction.
Ye Liangchen frowned, and an ominous premonition arose in his heart.
He looked around vigilantly and said in a deep voice: “It seems that things are not that simple…” The caravan members also began to get scared. They huddled together tightly and trembled.
“What is this…” a caravan member said tremblingly.
Ye Liangchen narrowed his eyes, staring at the rolling dust in the distance with a sharp gaze, and whispered: “Here it comes…”
025. Ultimate Counterattack (Old Version)
The wind and sand raged, covering the sky and the sun, like thousands of troops galloping in, making bursts of roars.
The compass spun wildly, like a drunken dancer, losing its way.
Ye Liangchen narrowed his eyes, feeling the strange smell in the air, and thought to himself: “This familiar formula, familiar taste… Could it be the legendary… system loophole?”
The caravan members huddled together, trembling like a group of frightened quails.
The business woman tightly grasped the corner of Ye Liangchen’s clothes, her eyes full of worry: “Ye Liangchen, this…what is going on?”
Ye Liangchen patted her hands and comforted her, “Remain calm, follow the basics, don’t panic.” After that, he plunged into the wind and sand, like a lonely knight, embarking on a journey to find the truth.
The sun was shining brightly in the sky and the desert was like a huge furnace, scorching the earth.
Ye Liangchen’s sweat flowed down his forehead and soaked his clothes, but he did not stop at all.
He was like a tireless machine, searching carefully in the vast sea of sand without missing any clues.
“This damn weather is even worse than the last time I drew ten cards and got all R cards…” Ye Liangchen complained as he searched, “System, if you dare to cheat me, do you believe I will send you a razor blade?”
The caravan members were waiting anxiously on the spot, their faces full of anxiety.
Ebisu was even more anxious, like an ant on a hot pot, and was running around in circles: “Why did Ye Liangchen take so long? Did something happen to him?”
The captain of the caravan had a painful look on his face: “This has delayed the trip. Who will compensate me for my losses? I should have hired a few more ninjas earlier. This money is really wasted!”
The female businessman kept looking in the direction where Ye Liangchen disappeared, silently praying for his safe return.
During the search, Ye Liangchen’s heart began to struggle.
He was worried about the safety of the caravan members, but his desire to solve the mystery made him unable to give up.
He frowned, feeling a conflict between his conscience and his conscience.
“Go back? Or keep looking?” Ye Liangchen’s heart was full of contradictions. “If I go back, the safety of the caravan members can be guaranteed, but the mystery cannot be solved. If I continue to look, I may find the key to solve the problem, but the safety of the caravan cannot be guaranteed…”
Just as he was hesitating, his eyes suddenly fell on a sand dune not far away.
“Wait…” Ye Liangchen narrowed his eyes, his gaze was like a torch, “What is that?” He walked quickly towards the sand dune, with an inexplicable premonition in his heart…
Ye Liangchen climbed up the sand dune as quickly as a cheetah. When he looked closely, he saw a miniature magic circle composed of strange runes suddenly appearing, looming in the sand.
Isn’t this a typical case of the legendary “buyer’s show and seller’s show”?
Looking at this crude illusion formation, Ye Liangchen’s mouth twitched and he complained in his heart, “That’s it? You have the nerve to embarrass yourself? I can do this!”
He quickly recalled the basic sealing techniques he learned in ninja school, and formed seals with both hands, with chakra jumping at his fingertips like a naughty elf.
“Look at my ‘Programmer’s Gaze’ to break your broken formation!” He growled and slapped the ground with both hands. His chakra was like an invisible giant net that instantly enveloped the entire formation.
“Crack——” A slight shattering sound was heard, like glass breaking.
The wind and sand around suddenly stopped, as if the pause button was pressed, and the compass returned to normal, quietly pointing to the north.
The strange smell in the air disappeared in an instant, and the sunlight became soft again, shining warmly on everyone.
“Wuhu! Done!” Ye Liangchen clapped his hands and a confident smile appeared on his face, like a scientist who had successfully solved the world’s problem.
He turned and walked towards the caravan members, the sunlight casting a golden glow behind him, like a savior with a halo.
“Ye Liangchen! You’re awesome!” The female businessman rushed up first and hugged Ye Liangchen’s arm. Her chest surged, making Ye Liangchen feel a little embarrassed.
“As expected of Lord Ye Liangchen, he is so awesome!” The members of the caravan also cheered, with joy of surviving the disaster on their faces.
Even the captain of the caravan, who had been complaining before, couldn’t stop smiling, as if he had picked up a gold ingot.
However, just as everyone was immersed in joy, a sinister burst of laughter exploded like thunder.
“Hehehe, want to escape? Not that easy!” A familiar voice echoed in the air, breaking the brief peace.
The leader of the desert bandits reappeared like a devil from hell, with a hideous smile on his face and a scimitar flashing with cold light in his hand.
Behind him, a group of thieves armed with various weapons came like a tide, their eyes were red, like a group of wild beasts that had lost their minds.
“Brothers, charge! Take away all their goods!” The thief leader roared loudly, his voice like the roar of a wild beast.
The thieves roared, brandished swords, and rushed towards the caravan like mad dogs. The air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
They rushed towards the caravan recklessly, like a pack of hungry wolves, ready to tear their prey into pieces.
The caravan members panicked and quickly picked up their weapons to defend themselves, but faced with the large number of thieves, they seemed powerless.
The captain of the caravan looked pale, and he kept muttering, “It’s over, it’s over, it’s completely over now…”
At this moment, a dark figure slowly walked out from behind the sand dunes. He said in a slightly magnetic voice: “It seems that it is time to stretch your muscles.”
The Anbu ninjas of Konoha shuttled among the thieves like ghosts, and their shurikens were like deadly darts, taking a life with every flash.
Ye Liangchen was not to be outdone. He was like an unparalleled god of war. Every normal attack was accompanied by an increase of chakra, and his attack power soared as well.
“That’s it? That’s it?” Ye Liangchen dodged the thieves’ attacks with ease, and at the same time, he taunted, “The level of your Sand Village ninjas is this? They’re even weaker than my Wangcai!”
The thief leader was angered by Ye Liangchen’s ridicule. He roared and swung his scimitar at Ye Liangchen.
“You dare to show off your skills in front of an expert?” Ye Liangchen sneered, dodged the attack easily, and punched the thief leader in the stomach with his backhand.
“Puff–” The thief leader spat out a mouthful of blood, flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, fell heavily to the ground, and couldn’t get up for a long time.
“Boss!” Upon seeing this, the remaining thieves suddenly became chaotic and fled everywhere like headless flies.
“Want to run? Have you asked me?” Ye Liangchen flashed and appeared in front of the fleeing thieves like a ghost, and sent them to death with a “Thousand Years Kill”.
The battle was over, and the thieves were lying on the ground in a mess, wailing one after another.
Ye Liangchen stood on the field of victory, as majestic as a god of war, exuding a powerful aura.
“Ye Liangchen! You are so awesome!” The female businessman ran to Ye Liangchen excitedly, her eyes full of admiration. She hugged Ye Liangchen’s arm, and the softness of her chest pressed tightly against Ye Liangchen’s arm.
Ye Liangchen also hugged the female businessman, feeling her tenderness and body fragrance, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.
The caravan members around them applauded and congratulated them, and the air was filled with a sweet atmosphere.
After returning to Konoha Village, Ye Liangchen’s name spread quickly like a virus and he became a hero in everyone’s eyes.
“Have you heard? That Genin Ye Liangchen wiped out an entire gang of thieves by himself!”
“Is this true? So powerful? Stronger than Kakashi-sensei?”
“Of course! Even Kakashi-sensei has to call him Big Brother!”
Ye Liangchen enjoyed the joy of victory and his heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment.
Just then, a mysterious man appeared in front of him and handed him a note.
“Ancient forest ruins…powerful ninjutsu secrets…” Ye Liangchen looked at the words on the note, his eyes full of curiosity and anticipation, “Interesting…”
026. Wind Style: Big Breakthrough! (Old Version)
Ye Liangchen, who received the invitation to explore the ruins, was now standing at the entrance of the ancient forest ruins, feeling as excited as if he had won a five million lottery ticket.
This is an exploration of ruins!
Maybe there is some lost S-level ninjutsu hidden in it. Once you learn it, you can take off on the spot and reach the peak of your life!
The entrance to the ruins in front of me is a bit eerie, indeed. The mottled stone walls are covered with unknown vines, and a smell of decay is overwhelming. Combined with the shadows cast by the surrounding towering ancient trees, if you don’t know, you might think you have entered a haunted house.
But who is Ye Liangchen?
The man who will be the future Hokage!
This little scene couldn’t scare him at all.
He rubbed his hands, eager to try, and wanted to rush in to find out what was going on.
The teammates around also arrived one after another.
Konoha’s Kurenai Yuhi, the senior ninja, Temari and Kankuro who came from the Sand Village to exchange and learn, and a few archaeological ninjas from Konoha.
There was a solemn look on everyone’s face, and the atmosphere was like that of a tomb raider.
Normally, such a dangerous exploration mission should be led by an experienced jonin.
But Xirihong directly asked Ye Liangchen to go in first.
“Ye Liangchen, you have a keen sense of observation, so you should go in first to explore the way.”
Everyone looked confused.
This is about exploring ruins, not going to the market to buy vegetables!
Letting a Genin take the lead is really incomprehensible.
Ye Liangchen was also stunned for a moment, but then the corners of his mouth rose, and he said to himself: It’s worthy of me, excellent people shine wherever they go!
He took a deep breath and stepped into the ruins without hesitation.
“I believe in Ye Liangchen’s judgment.” Xi Rihong explained lightly.
As soon as these words were spoken, Temari and Kanjiurou’s eyes changed when they looked at Ye Liangchen.
Who is this kid?
How could a jonin trust him so much?
Ye Liangchen felt several burning gazes behind him and felt under tremendous pressure.
He moved forward cautiously. The ruins were completely dark, and he couldn’t see his hand in front of him.
Suddenly, there was a “click” sound under my feet…
After a “crack” sound under my feet, the ground collapsed!
Seeing that things were not going well, Ye Liangchen rolled over to avoid the trap.
Dozens of poisonous arrows shot out from the walls on both sides of the passage ahead in an instant!
If you get shot, you will be disabled if not killed.
Ye Liangchen reacted quickly, took out his kunai, and blocked all the poisonous arrows with “ding ding dang dang”.
That was a close call!
As expected of me, my reaction speed is awesome!
“Oh my god, this is too insidious!” Ye Liangchen complained.
The archaeological ninja behind him wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said tremblingly: “This is just an appetizer, there are more complicated mechanisms ahead…” He pointed to a huge disc at the end of the passage. The disc was engraved with strange symbols and there were several grooves of various shapes around it.
“This is an ancient Bagua lock. It can only be unlocked by placing the corresponding runes into the grooves in a specific order. If you are not careful, it will trigger a more powerful trap.”
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. This mechanism made their scalps tingle.
Temari and Kanjiro also looked solemn, as they had never seen this thing before.
Just when everyone was at a loss, Ye Liangchen began to circle around the Bagua Lock with great interest, looking at it, touching it, nodding from time to time, looking confident.
“Let me get well, let me get well…” He muttered to himself, just like an old Chinese doctor treating a patient.
“Ye Liangchen, do you understand?” Xirihong asked.
Ye Liangchen smiled confidently, “No problem!” He stretched out his hand and gently moved the disc, then put several runes into the grooves in a specific order. With a “click”, the Bagua lock was unlocked!
Everyone was stunned. Isn’t this too easy?
“This…is it solved already?” The archaeological ninja looked incredulous. This was a problem that had troubled them for years!
Ye Liangchen shrugged, “Sprinkle it, sprinkle it.” He took out a scroll from the Bagua lock, opened it, and saw some clues about the interior of the ruins.
Sure enough, the protagonist’s halo is useful!
“Awesome, Ye Liangchen!” Xi Ri Hong exclaimed.
“This kid has something special…” Kan Jiulang couldn’t help but say.
Although Temari didn’t say anything, there was a hint of admiration in her eyes.
Ye Liangchen was secretly happy. It was a great feeling to be admired by everyone!
At this moment, several dark shadows fell from the sky, holding shining weapons in their hands.
“Hand over the scroll!” The person who came was none other than Orochimaru’s men.
They have been lurking in the ruins for a long time, waiting for someone to crack the mechanism so that they can reap the benefits.
“Want to steal my things? Dream on!” Ye Liangchen put away the scroll and assumed a fighting stance.
“Hmph, you ignorant little brat!” Orochimaru’s men sneered and threw a smoke bomb.
In an instant, everything around was white and you couldn’t see your hand in front of you.
Immediately afterwards, several fierce attacks came from the smoke!
“Be careful!” Xihihong warned.
Ye Liangchen and his teammates stood back to back, observing their surroundings vigilantly.
From time to time in the smoke, there was the sound of weapons colliding and a few muffled groans.
“Damn, these guys…” Ye Liangchen wiped the sweat from his face, feeling that the situation was not good.
The opponent’s attacks became more and more fierce, and they seemed to be testing their defenses.
“Ye Liangchen, are you okay?” Xirihong’s voice came from the side.
“It’s OK, but a little…” Ye Liangchen hadn’t finished speaking when he suddenly felt a murderous aura coming from behind…
“not good!”
Ye Liangchen felt a fierce murderous aura coming from behind him. At the critical moment, he suddenly lunged forward and barely avoided the fatal blow.
“A sneak attack? How despicable!” He stood up with a somersault and quickly formed a seal.
The continuous normal attacks made the chakra in his body surge like a rushing river.
At this moment, he felt that he was the incarnation of chakra!
“Wind Style: Great Breakthrough!”
The powerful wind escape was like a roaring beast, instantly blowing away the smoke and exposing the enemies hidden in it.
Orochimaru’s men were caught off guard by the sudden attack, and they fell to the ground like fallen leaves.
Ye Liangchen seized the opportunity and used his fists and feet together. Each blow contained powerful chakra, and he beat them until they cried for their parents.
“That’s all? You dare to steal my things?” While attacking, he did not forget to make a few sarcastic remarks. He was simply a talk show master on the battlefield.
“How come this guy suddenly became so strong?” one of Orochimaru’s men shouted in horror.
The corners of Ye Liangchen’s mouth slightly raised, and he thought to himself: You little brat, if you don’t show some real skills, do you really think I’m a vegetarian?
While fighting, he observed the surrounding terrain and found a huge deep pit not far away. He immediately had an idea in his mind.
He deliberately exposed a flaw to lure the enemy into chasing him, and then dodged and hid beside a deep pit.
“Chase me, why don’t you chase me?” Ye Liangchen asked provocatively.
Several of Orochimaru’s men were fooled and rushed over with roars.
“Goodbye!” Ye Liangchen stepped hard on the soft soil at the edge of the pit. Several enemies lost their balance in an instant and fell into the deep pit.
“Hey, be careful when you go down, don’t get hurt.” He did not forget to give a “kind” reminder.
Seeing this scene, Xihihong and others were stunned.
This is so amazing!
This operation is simply textbook level!
Temari looked at Ye Liangchen’s heroic figure, and a ripple appeared in her heart.
She walked to Ye Liangchen and said with disdain: “Humph, not bad performance, Genin.” Ye Liangchen smiled and said: “Just so-so, third in the world.”
Temari’s face turned slightly red. This guy is quite good at talking.
The teammates around them all noticed the subtle atmosphere between them and showed “watching” expressions.
When Xihi Kurenai saw this scene, she also smiled knowingly.
Just as everyone was preparing to continue exploring deeper, a low roar suddenly came from the depths of the ruins, like a giant beast from ancient times, which made people shudder.
“What’s that sound?” asked the archaeological ninja with a pale face.
Ye Liangchen clenched the kunai in his hand and his eyes became sharp.
“It looks like there’s going to be something interesting to watch…”
027. This atmosphere is a bit scary (old version)
The roar coming from the depths of the ruins was like a sleeping beast being awakened, echoing in the deep maze.
Ye Liangchen and others held their breath, gripped their weapons tightly, and moved cautiously towards the source of the sound.
The underground maze was dark and damp, and the air was filled with a decayed smell that made people feel suffocated.
The walls were wet, as if oozing with sticky liquid, which made people shudder.
Their footsteps echoed in the silence, and each step seemed particularly heavy, as if they were stepping on their own heartbeats.
“This atmosphere is a bit scary…” Temari shrank her neck and muttered softly.
“Shh!” Kan Jiulang nervously made a gesture for silence and looked around vigilantly.
Ye Liangchen walked at the front of the team, his sharp eyes scanning everything around him, trying to capture any unusual movements.
This maze is more complicated than I imagined, and it’s full of weirdness.
He felt that fate always seemed to like to arrange some “surprises” for him.
Suddenly, a “whoosh” sound broke the silence, and several sharp arrows shot out from the secret compartments on the wall and headed straight for the crowd!
“Be careful!” Ye Liangchen shouted, and the kunai in his hand spun rapidly, shooting down the arrows shot at him one by one.
The others also dodged, and Kanjiro’s puppet even stood in front of Temari and blocked several hidden arrows for her.
“Oh my god, this mechanism is too insidious!” Ye Liangchen complained.
After dodging the hidden arrow, before anyone could breathe a sigh of relief, the ground suddenly cracked open and several pillars of fire gushed out, forcing them to retreat again and again.
“This is too deceptive! Are you kidding me?” Ye Liangchen felt like he was about to collapse. This maze was simply a death trap!
The teammates were also a little panicked. Temari and Kanjiro stood back to back, vigilantly observing the movements around them, while Yuhi Kurenai tried hard to maintain order in the team and directed everyone to find a place to hide.
Ye Liangchen took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
He realized that panicking would only put them in more danger.
He must find a way to crack these mechanisms, otherwise they will all die here.
He narrowed his eyes and carefully observed the surrounding walls and ground, trying to find some patterns…
etc!
“Teacher Hong, look at that!” Ye Liangchen pointed at an inconspicuous symbol on the wall and said in a hurried tone.
Xi Rihong looked in the direction of Ye Liangchen’s finger and found a symbol similar to some ancient writing engraved on the wall.
“This is……”
“This is the clue to activate the mechanism.” Ye Liangchen said confidently, “I noticed before that every time the mechanism is triggered, a different symbol will appear on the wall. This symbol represents fire, and the symbol corresponding to the hidden arrow just now is an arrow.”
“You mean, these symbols are the key to the control mechanism?” Xirihong instantly understood what Ye Liangchen meant.
“That’s right! As long as we decipher the meaning of these symbols, we can predict the triggering of the mechanism in advance and avoid danger.” Ye Liangchen explained, “I would like to call this operation ‘Mechanism Decryption Master’.”
“Ye Liangchen, you are so awesome!” Temari looked at him with admiration, little stars twinkling in her eyes.
Under Ye Liangchen’s command, everyone began to carefully observe the symbols on the wall and record them down.
Relying on his amazing memory and analytical skills, Ye Liangchen quickly deciphered the meaning of these symbols and successfully predicted the next few traps.
“Left! Get out of the way!”
“Right! Watch out for falling rocks!”
“Up there! There’s poisonous gas!”
Ye Liangchen’s instructions were clear and accurate. Under his command, everyone acted like well-trained soldiers and perfectly avoided all the traps.
Even Kan Jiulang, who was usually aloof, couldn’t help but look at Ye Liangchen with admiration.
Finally, they successfully passed this dangerous area.
Ye Liangchen let out a long sigh, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and complained: “Fortunately, I was smart, otherwise today would really be over.”
However, before they could relax, a deafening roar came from deep in the passage, and the ground began to tremble slightly.
A huge monster appeared in front of them.
It has a lizard-like body covered in thick, shimmering scales, and a skull-like head.
Its eyes glowed threateningly red, and its sharp claws were dripping with a sticky green liquid.
The monster roared, waved its huge claws, and pounced towards everyone.
The howling wind blew in the face, bringing with it a strong fishy smell.
“Oh my god! What the hell is this?!” Ye Liangchen exclaimed and quickly dodged.
The monster’s attack speed was astonishingly fast. Every time it swung its claws, it created a sharp gust of wind, making it difficult to defend against.
Ye Liangchen and his teammates fought hard, but facing this powerful monster, they were obviously powerless.
Temari’s fan was slapped away by the monster’s claw, Kanjiro’s puppet was torn apart, and Yuhi Kurenai was hit by the monster’s tail, flying backwards and hitting the wall, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of her mouth.
“Teacher Hong!” Ye Liangchen’s heart tightened when he saw this.
The monster roared again and approached the crowd.
Its sharp claws flashed with cold light, as if it was about to tear them into pieces in the next second…
“It seems that we have no choice but to fight!” Ye Liangchen’s eyes focused, he took a deep breath, concentrated the chakra on his legs, and his figure flashed like a ghost, avoiding the monster’s violent attack.
Every dodge was extremely thrilling, but Ye Liangchen became more and more courageous, as if he was tireless.
“Fire Style: Phoenix Fire Technique!” Xihi Hong shouted delicately, quickly forming seals with her hands, and balls of flame spewed out of her mouth, like flying phoenix flowers, attacking the monster.
Ye Liangchen seized the moment when the monster was attracted by the flames, accumulated chakra again, and his fists fell on the monster like raindrops.
Each attack was accompanied by a dull sound, and scars appeared on the monster’s body.
“Roar!” The monster felt pain and let out a deafening roar, attacking even more frantically.
But Ye Liangchen was not afraid at all. He keenly captured the monster’s weakness – the scales on the neck were relatively weak.
“Now!” Ye Liangchen seized the opportunity, concentrated all his chakra into his right fist, and smashed the monster’s neck with a heavy punch.
“Bang!” With a loud bang, the monster’s huge body fell to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.
“We won!” Temari shouted excitedly with a bright smile on her face.
“Ye Liangchen, you are so awesome!” Xirihong also praised sincerely.
“Hey, it’s no big deal.” Ye Liangchen scratched his head and said modestly, but he was secretly delighted in his heart: “I would like to call this operation ‘Extreme One-for-One’!”
Just as everyone was cheering, Temari quietly walked to Ye Liangchen, took out a delicate little medicine bottle from her arms, and handed it to him: “Here, for your wounds.”
“Thank you.” Ye Liangchen took the medicine bottle, and their fingers touched lightly. Temari’s face instantly turned red like a ripe apple.
Kan Jiulang saw this scene and shook his head helplessly: “Alas, my sister has grown up…”
However, before everyone could recover from the joy of victory, they discovered that the road leading to the depths of the ruins was blocked by a mysterious blue light curtain.
Strange runes flowed on the light curtain, emitting a powerful energy fluctuation.
Ye Liangchen looked at the seal with a frown. He reached out and touched the light curtain. A cold energy instantly spread throughout his body.
He withdrew his hand, his eyes became serious…
“this……”
028. Academic Master Mode (Old Version)
“There’s something special about this seal.” Ye Liangchen withdrew his hand that was touching the light curtain. There was still a hint of cold numbness on his fingertips. He narrowed his eyes, as if he was studying a difficult advanced mathematical problem.
He turned on his “nerd mode” and simply ignored the noise around him.
The tadpole-like runes on the light screen seemed to have turned into disassembled circuit diagrams in his eyes.
He squatted down and drew something on the ground with his fingers, muttering something, as if talking to himself or explaining to his teammates: “The arrangement of these runes is a bit like what I saw in the archaeological log before… Hmm, it’s interesting.”
Xirihong looked at Ye Liangchen’s focused expression and secretly admired him in her heart. This boy is really a “workaholic”!
However, at this critical moment, we really have to rely on him.
Temari was a little impatient. She crossed her arms, pouted her lips proudly, and muttered, “Stop dilly-dallying. Why don’t you just go straight in?” Kanjiro pulled her aside and reminded her in a low voice, “Don’t be impatient. Teacher Hong trusts him. He must have his reasons.”
Time passed by minute by minute, and the air was filled with tension.
Ye Liangchen seemed to be in another world. Everything around him had nothing to do with him. Only the light curtain in front of him was his only challenge at the moment.
He touched his chin, then scratched his head, his expression sometimes serious, sometimes confused, as if he was struggling with himself.
The little drama in his mind has already begun: ‘Unlock it, and the secret book will be in hand, and my strength will be improved again!’
But another voice jumped out: “What if it’s a trap? It’s over? No, no, I want to be the Hokage! I can’t be so careless!”
The two little guys were arguing in his mind, and he felt like he was playing a death game of “If you’re a man, go down 100 floors”, and every step was like walking on thin ice.
This tangled emotion spread throughout the team like a plague.
Yuhi Kurenai’s eyes were full of worry, Temari also restrained her pride and became a little anxious, while Kanjiro observed the surrounding environment more vigilantly.
Everyone knew that the seal before them determined their future fate.
Suddenly, Ye Liangchen stood up, his lips slightly raised, revealing a confident smile, just like a top student who was confident when handing in his paper at the end of the exam.
I saw him forming seals with his hands quickly, and his fingertips left afterimages in the air, like a skilled pianist dancing on the black and white keys.
As he completed his last seal, the originally indestructible blue light curtain began to show spider-web-like cracks, making crisp “crackling” sounds.
“Fuck, it’s really open!” Temari couldn’t help but burst out with a swear word. Her green eyes, which were originally filled with impatience, were now filled with shock.
Kanjiurang also let down his guard, with disbelief in his eyes.
Xiurihong smiled even more gratified, she knew that this boy would never let her down.
The light curtain was completely shattered, turning into specks of blue starlight that dissipated into the air, revealing a path leading to the altar.
On both sides of the road, there were dark green flames burning, illuminating the surroundings like a ghost cave, adding a sense of mystery.
Ye Liangchen clapped his hands, brushing off the non-existent dust on his hands, and a sense of accomplishment arose in his heart.
He turned around and said to his stunned teammates in a tone that seemed to say, “Isn’t this easy?” “Come on, I’ll take you treasure hunting!”
Everyone looked at each other, and a thought arose in their minds at the same time: This guy is really a “King of Rolls” that people both love and hate!
However, just as they were about to set foot on the road to the altar, the air around them suddenly turned chilly.
Several dark shadows, like ghosts, emerged from the surrounding darkness. They were Orochimaru’s men, and each of them had a sinister smile on their face.
“Hey, hey, aren’t these the cute little ones from Konoha?” A pale-faced man let out a weird laugh. He licked the corner of his mouth like a venomous snake catching its prey, “We want the secret book!”
As soon as he finished speaking, countless ninjutsu attacked from all directions, wind jutsu, fire jutsu, water jutsu, like gorgeous fireworks, exploded in the small space and instantly enveloped everyone.
Temari’s face changed, and the iron fan in her hand unfolded, forming a solid barrier to block the violent attack.
Kan Jiulang also quickly summoned puppets to form a line of defense.
With her rich experience, Kurenai Yuhi led everyone to dodge the attacks of ninjutsu.
However, Orochimaru’s men were obviously well prepared. They were numerous and worked well together. Their various ninjutsu were like a storm, making Ye Liangchen and others exhausted to deal with.
For a moment, they were caught in an unprecedented crisis, and the tense atmosphere was like a fully drawn bowstring that could break at any time.
Ye Liangchen looked at the enemies approaching him, feeling the increasingly strong murderous intent in the air, and his eyes became sharp.
He licked his lips, a weird smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said: “It seems that we have to get serious!”
Ye Liangchen curled his lips, his eyes as sharp as a cheetah locking onto its prey. He clapped his hands, dispersing the smoke and dust in the air, and shouted to his teammates: “Brothers and sisters, don’t just stand there! These guys are here to give you experience, go for it!”
He rushed forward first, his figure like a ghost, moving freely among the enemy’s ninjutsu attacks. Every dodge was just right, as if he had activated the “absolute dodge” cheat.
While dodging the attacks, he quickly formed seals with his hands and shouted, “Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu!” A huge fireball burst out of his mouth and instantly swallowed up Orochimaru’s men in front of him. The air was filled with a burnt smell and at the same time he felt the rapid surge of chakra in his body, as if it was endless.
“Shit, this kid is cheating!” Temari couldn’t help but exclaim, her green eyes were full of shock, she felt like she was watching the protagonist show off his skills in a passionate anime.
Kanjiro was also confused. He had never seen such a fierce Genin. It completely overturned his cognition.
Xihihong nodded with satisfaction. She knew that this boy was no ordinary person.
Ye Liangchen did not give the enemy a chance to breathe. He flashed and appeared behind the enemy as if teleporting. His hands turned into afterimages and he attacked repeatedly. Each attack was like a sledgehammer, knocking the enemy away.
Not only is he powerful in attack, he also always pays attention to protecting his teammates, like a responsible “nanny”, kicking away all the enemies who want to sneak attack his teammates.
“This is the real output! Kill them in seconds!” Ye Liangchen became more and more courageous as the battle went on. He felt the surging power in his body, as if he had turned into a human tank, charging through the enemy camp, knocking people and horses to the ground wherever he passed.
After just a few rounds, Orochimaru’s men were defeated by Ye Liangchen. They looked at Ye Liangchen who was like a god of war.
The battle is over and the smoke has cleared.
Ye Liangchen stood proudly, like a victorious king.
His teammates looked at him. Xi Rihong walked over to Ye Liangchen, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: “Well done, you are worthy of being my good partner.”
Temari also looked at Ye Liangchen with complicated eyes. She walked up to Ye Liangchen, her eyes full of admiration, and said in a gentle tone: “You…you are so awesome.” Her cheeks flushed slightly, like a ripe apple.
Ye Liangchen felt Temari’s love and the corners of his mouth rose slightly. The two looked into each other’s eyes. The air around them was filled with an ambiguous atmosphere, as if the air had become sweet.
Kan Jiulang saw his sister’s appearance and shook his head helplessly, thinking to himself: “Girls can’t be kept at home when they grow up.”
Ye Liangchen turned and walked towards the altar. In the center of the altar, an ancient scroll lay there quietly, emitting a faint light.
Ye Liangchen walked forward, picked up the scroll and read it carefully. He finally found the legendary ninjutsu secret book and became the biggest winner of this ruins exploration.
He held the secret book high in his hand and roared to the sky, as if announcing his victory to the world.
The teammates around him looked at him and were happy for him.
Everyone had a satisfied smile on their face. They had completed this dangerous and challenging ruins exploration journey and gained a lot.
Ye Liangchen stood on the altar, feeling the joy of victory, his heart full of longing for the future. He knew that this was just a small beginning of his legendary life!
His name will surely become widely known in Konoha Village and Sand Village, and he will continue to write his own legend!
029. Breakthrough (old version)
Ye Liangchen jumped down from the altar and landed steadily. He carefully put the scroll in his hand into the ninja tool bag.
Looking up, the scene in front of him made his heart tighten: at the entrance of the maze, countless passages spread out like the blood vessels of the maze, deep and dark, as if a giant beast that wanted to devour everything had opened its bloody mouth.
“This…how long will it take to get here?” Ye Liangchen secretly complained in his heart, isn’t this a complete “maze of death”?
He doesn’t want to waste time here.
He was extremely alert, keeping his eyes and ears open, trying to find a breakthrough from the clues around him.
This is a big matter that determines whether you can go home and lie down early!
Kurenai Yuhi and the Sunagakure siblings followed closely behind, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little solemn.
Although Temari still had a proud look on her face, she did not dare to be careless. Who knew what kind of trouble would pop up underground?
Kanjiurang even hid the puppet in his sleeves, ready to fight at any time.
“Everyone, be careful. The archaeological ninja said that there are many traps here.” Yuhi Kurenai reminded with a hint of caution in her tone.
Just as he finished speaking, a sharp whistling sound suddenly came from the maze passage!
Ye Liangchen was quick-witted and quick-handed. He pulled Xi Rihong next to him and dodged sideways, barely avoiding the spinning blade that was coming at him.
“Oh my god! What the hell is this thing!” Ye Liangchen was shocked. The speed of this thing is like a rocket. Who can withstand it?
I saw countless blades popping out from the wall, cutting the air madly like sickles reaping lives.
Temari and Kanjiro also took action. Temari waved a huge fan, creating a strong wind, trying to blow the blade away; while Kanjiro controlled the puppet and used his body to block the blade.
While Ye Liangchen was dodging, his brain was working rapidly. What was the principle behind this mechanism?
How can I crack it the fastest?
He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. This was no joke. If he was not careful, he would lose his life.
“We can’t go on like this, we must think of a way!” Ye Liangchen shouted loudly while dodging, with a hint of anxiety in his voice, and beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.
Now he just wants to complain: This crappy maze has too many traps!
Are they afraid that someone might get out alive?
Just as everyone was trying their best to resist, Ye Liangchen suddenly felt a strange feeling surging in his body. Was that… chakra?
He was slightly startled, feeling his chakra growing at an incredible speed. He suddenly had a bold idea. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and his eyes flashed with excitement.
While Ye Liangchen was dodging the numerous blades, he was also feeling the increasingly strong chakra fluctuations in his body.
With a thought, he quickly formed seals with his hands and shouted, “Earth Escape: Rock Stance!”
The ground in front of him suddenly bulged up and turned into several hard stone walls, blocking part of the blade’s attack.
The blades that were blocked by the stone wall seemed to be paused, frozen in mid-air, making a vibrating “buzzing” sound.
“Fuck! Is this possible?!” Temari widened her eyes and even forgot about her tsundereness as she looked at the magical scene in front of her.
Kanjiro was also shocked. He controlled the puppet and carefully hid behind the stone wall, fearing that he would be cut into pieces by the blades.
“Don’t just stand there, quickly find where the mechanism is!” Ye Liangchen shouted loudly. He didn’t have time to just sit there and watch.
He carefully observed the surrounding environment and found that the blades seemed to be ejected in a regular pattern. There were some tiny holes on the wall. Could the mechanism be there?
“I saw it! The hole on the wall, the blade popped out from there!” Xihihong said, pointing at the hole on the wall.
“Quick, attack those holes!” Ye Liangchen shouted.
Everyone used ninjutsu and attacked the hole.
Temari’s strong wind combined with Kanjiro’s puppet hidden weapon destroyed the holes in the wall into pieces.
As the last hole was destroyed, the blades that were suspended in the air fell to the ground with a “snap” sound, making a crisp impact sound.
“Huh, it finally stopped.” Kan Jiulang wiped the sweat from his forehead and let out a long sigh.
Before everyone had time to relax their vigilance, they heard a “whoosh” sound coming from the air.
Countless hidden weapons shot out from the darkness and headed straight towards them.
“Be careful!” Ye Liangchen pulled Xiurihong behind him and stood in front.
Those hidden weapons poured down like raindrops, hitting the ground around them, making a “ding-dang-dang” sound.
“It’s the enemy!” Xi Ri Hong frowned and looked around for traces of the enemy.
In the darkness, several figures walked out slowly. They were wearing black robes and strange masks on their faces. They were Orochimaru’s men.
Their eyes were grim and there was a hint of a hideous smile on their lips, as if they were admiring the miserable appearance of their trapped prey.
“Hmph, it seems that you are nothing more than this.” One of them said with a sneer, holding a kunai that was shining with cold light in his hand.
They did not launch an attack immediately, but slowly approached like a cat playing with mouse, testing their strength.
Ye Liangchen looked at the enemy getting closer and closer, and an inexplicable anger surged in his heart.
He felt that Yuhi Kurenai on his back was a little nervous, and he had to protect her.
This feeling of being passively beaten is really unpleasant!
Xiurihong looked at Ye Liangchen worriedly and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Ye Liangchen’s eyes.
He smiled slightly, with a hint of confidence and a hint of cunning in that smile.
He took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes. When he opened them again, he murmured to himself, “Next…”
“Next, it’s time to witness a miracle!” Ye Liangchen raised the corner of his mouth and revealed a confident smile.
In the blink of an eye, Ye Liangchen flashed and rushed towards the enemy like an arrow.
He used both his fists and feet, and each strike was powerful, lightning fast, and incredibly accurate.
Before the enemy could react, Ye Liangchen punched him and he fell heavily to the ground, letting out a scream.
“Damn, this kid is cheating!” exclaimed one of Orochimaru’s men, his eyes full of disbelief.
Ye Liangchen’s speed and strength far exceed the level of a Genin, he is like a human-shaped Tyrannosaurus Rex!
Ye Liangchen ignored the enemy’s shock. He continued to launch a fierce attack with heavy fists and whistling kicks, sweeping the enemy like a violent storm.
Each of his attacks was accompanied by a surge of chakra in his body, making him more and more courageous.
“Earth Escape·Earth Flow Wall!” Ye Liangchen quickly formed seals with his hands, and the ground instantly rose up, forming a solid earth wall that separated the enemies.
“Wind Style: Great Breakthrough!” Temari seized the opportunity and waved her huge fan, creating a gust of wind that blew the enemies who were blocked by the earth wall to the ground.
“Puppetry·Crow!” Kan Jiulang also controlled the puppet and launched an attack from the air. The black crows shot towards the enemy like sharp arrows.
With the tacit cooperation of Ye Liangchen and others, Orochimaru’s men were beaten without any ability to fight back. They fell to the ground one after another, groaning in pain.
After the battle, Ye Liangchen was breathing slightly, with beads of sweat oozing out of his forehead.
Xiurihong walked up to him and gently wiped the sweat off his face, her eyes full of appreciation and concern.
Ye Liangchen looked at Xi Rihong’s gentle eyes, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.
Their eyes met, and the air around them seemed to become ambiguous.
Temari saw this scene and felt a little sad, but she didn’t know what to say.
Just when everyone relaxed their vigilance, a deafening roar suddenly came from the front, and the ground began to shake violently.
“Oh no! A big guy is coming!” Ye Liangchen’s face changed, he clenched his fists, and a strong sense of crisis rose in his heart.
030. Leave this big guy to me! (Old version)
The earth is shaking, sand and rocks are flying!
A deafening roar echoed throughout the ruins, like the awakening of an ancient giant beast, which was heart-pounding.
When the dust settled, a huge monster suddenly appeared in front of everyone, as majestic as a small mountain.
It was covered in thick rock armor that gleamed with a metallic luster, and its scarlet eyes were like two will-o’-the-wisp lanterns, emitting a terrifying light.
A huge feeling of oppression came over me, as if the air had frozen.
“My goodness, this thing might be a prehistoric giant lizard that has become a spirit!” Ye Liangchen swallowed his saliva and complained in his heart.
Although he said it with ease, cold sweat broke out on his palms unconsciously.
This guardian of the ruins was more powerful than any enemy he had encountered before, and his aura alone was enough to suffocate him.
“Everyone be careful!” Xihi Kurenai’s face was solemn. She pulled out a kunai and assumed a fighting stance.
Temari and Kanjiro were also on high alert, as if they were facing a powerful enemy.
The archaeologists were so frightened that they trembled and hid behind everyone.
The guardian of the ruins roared to the sky and swung his giant claws violently. The wind whistled, sand and rocks flew, and it swept over like a tornado.
Ye Liangchen and others were unable to dodge and were blown to the ground by the strong wind, looking miserable.
“Cough cough cough…” Ye Liangchen got up from the ground, spat out a mouthful of mud and sand, and couldn’t help feeling a little depressed.
My fate is so bad. I finally defeated a wave of enemies, but then a stronger one came!
“It seems like I’ll have to die here today…” A trace of despair flashed through Ye Liangchen’s heart.
“No, we haven’t lost yet!” Xi Rihong’s voice was firm and powerful. She helped Ye Liangchen up, her eyes full of encouragement, “Everyone cheer up, we will definitely beat it!”
Temari and Kanjiro also supported each other and stood up, with fighting spirit rekindled in their eyes.
Seeing this, the archaeologists also plucked up their courage, gripped their tools tightly, and prepared to fight the enemy to the death.
“Teacher Hong is right. We have only just started. How can we give up so easily?” Ye Liangchen clenched his fists and his eyes became determined.
He took a deep breath, feeling the power surging through his body.
The guardian of the ruins roared again and approached the crowd with heavy steps.
With every step it took, the ground shook, as if the entire ruins were about to collapse.
“Here it comes!” Ye Liangchen shouted, his eyes fixed on the approaching beast.
He silently calculated the distance and time in his mind, waiting for the best time to attack…
“Wait a minute!” Ye Liangchen suddenly shouted.
Everyone was stunned, not understanding what he was doing.
At this critical moment, call for a timeout?
I’m afraid it’s Shi Lezhi!
Even Xi Rihong frowned slightly and looked at Ye Liangchen in confusion.
Ye Liangchen took a deep breath, his eyes gleaming with a gleam.
“This thing has thick skin and tough flesh. We can’t fight it head-on. We have to outsmart it!” He pointed at the guardian’s lantern-like eyes and said, “Its eyes are its weakness!”
Everyone looked in the direction of Ye Liangchen’s finger, and noticed that although the guardian’s eyes were huge, they were unusually protruding, and it seemed that their defense was not strong.
While the guardian was still roaring, Ye Liangchen secretly mobilized the huge amount of chakra accumulated in his body and condensed it in his palm.
“Rasengan!” He shouted softly, and a high-density chakra ball spun at high speed in his hand, making a sharp buzzing sound.
Before everyone could react, Ye Liangchen had already shot out like an arrow, heading straight for the guardian’s eyes!
“Bang!” With a loud bang, the Rasengan hit the guardian’s left eye!
The guardian let out a sharp scream, and his huge body trembled violently, and a crack appeared on the huge rock armor.
Ye Liangchen was blown away and fell heavily to the ground, feeling that all his internal organs were displaced.
But he ignored the pain and shouted, “Now, attack its eyes!”
Everyone then reacted and used all their strength to attack the guardian’s eyes.
Yuhi Kurenai’s illusion, magic, tree binding was activated, trapping the guardian for a short time. Temari’s wind style, Kamaitachi technique was like a sharp blade, leaving deep scars on the guardian’s eyes.
Kanjiro’s puppetry, Crow, also joined the battle, and its sharp poisonous needles pierced the guardian’s eye sockets.
Even the archaeologists mustered up the courage to hit the guardian’s legs with the tools in their hands, trying to distract it.
The Ruins Guardian felt pain and struggled frantically, but the injury to its eyes caused it to lose its sense of direction, and its attacks became disorganized.
Everyone seized the opportunity and continued their fierce attack, leaving the guardian covered in wounds and blood.
Just when everyone thought victory was in sight, something strange happened.
Several dark shadows rushed out from the corner, with cold light flashing in their hands, and rushed straight towards the crowd!
“Be careful! They’re Orochimaru’s men!” Temari had sharp eyes and recognized the identity of the person at a glance, and warned loudly.
Ye Liangchen cursed in his heart, “Fuck it!” It was really like adding insult to injury!
He endured the pain in his body, stood up, glanced at everyone, and said in a deep voice: “Teacher Hong, Temari, go deal with those guys!”
Ye Liangchen asked Yuhi Kurenai and Temari to deal with Orochimaru’s men, while he faced the guardian of the ruins alone.
He used super-powerful ninjutsu to confront the guardian head-on; his strength made the guardian a little afraid. Ye Liangchen became more and more courageous as the battle went on, and he beat the guardian back again and again, while his teammates cheered him on.
“You guys stand back, leave this big guy to me!” Ye Liangchen shouted, he took a deep breath, the chakra in his body gushed out like a spring, and a faint blue light appeared all over his body.
Although the guardian was huge, there was a hint of hesitation in its eyes.
Ye Liangchen seized this opportunity and quickly rushed to the guardian, forming seals with his hands and whispering, “Chidori!”
A blinding bolt of lightning burst out from his hand and pierced the guardian’s heart.
The guardian roared in pain, and his huge body stepped back, waving his claws in the air in an attempt to fight back.
But Ye Liangchen was too fast, and his series of attacks came like a tide, leaving the guardian helpless.
“Come on, Ye Liangchen!” Yuhi Kurenai’s voice sounded not far away. She and Temari were fighting against Orochimaru’s men, but she was still worried about Ye Liangchen in her heart.
Temari gritted her teeth and used her Wind Style: Sand Falls Funeral to hit two enemies in succession, but it still seemed a bit strenuous.
“Temari, stand back! I’ll help you!” Kanjiro’s voice rang out, and he controlled the puppet crow and quickly joined the battle.
The brother and sister cooperated well. Kanjiro’s puppet followed them like a shadow and blocked a fatal blow for Temari. Temari took the opportunity to counterattack. The two of them worked together to instantly repel Orochimaru’s men.
“Thank you, brother!”
At the same time, the guardian of the ruins was angered by Ye Liangchen and it burst out with even more powerful power.
Its entire body was emitting light, and its rock armor seemed to become stronger in an instant, and the red light in its eyes became more dazzling.
The guardian roared to the sky, the sound was deafening, and the entire ruins were shaking, as if they were about to collapse.
“Everyone be careful, this thing is going to fight to the death!” Ye Liangchen thought to himself that it was not good, but he did not retreat, instead he became more determined.
He looked back at his teammates behind him, and seeing their determined eyes, a warm feeling surged in his heart.
“Brothers, hold on, we will definitely win!” Ye Liangchen’s voice echoed in the ruins, every word was full of power.
He took a deep breath and prepared himself for the Guardian’s final fatal blow.
031. What if it fails? (Old version)
Inside the ruins, the atmosphere was like solidified amber, and every breath of air carried a heavy sense of oppression.
Ye Liangchen took a deep breath, his lungs pumping like a bellows, and then exhaled slowly, as if to dispel all the tension.
His chakra was like boiling magma, surging and roaring in his body, and finally gathering on his fists.
His eyes were like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath, sharp, resolute and firm.
There seemed to be a raging fire burning in those eyes, ready to burn away all obstacles.
The air around him seemed to become heavy because of his powerful aura, and there was a faint crackling sound, as if warming up for the upcoming battle.
Yuhi Kurenai’s heart was in her throat. She clenched the kunai in her hand tightly, and her knuckles turned white from the force.
Temari opened her mouth slightly with an expression of disbelief. She had never seen a Genin burst out with such terrifying momentum.
Kan Jiulang also put away his previous frivolity and his expression became extremely serious. He stared at Ye Liangchen closely and couldn’t help but break into a cold sweat for him.
Ye Liangchen’s heart is not as calm as he appears to be.
He was a little hesitant, as if he was standing on the edge of a cliff, caught in a dilemma.
This attack concerns their life and death, the success or failure of the mission, and the safety of their teammates.
What if it fails?
He didn’t dare to imagine, nor did he want to imagine.
He was afraid of failing, afraid of letting his teammates down, afraid of not being good enough.
This contradictory mentality was like two wild beasts tearing at each other madly in his heart, causing him great pain.
His brows were furrowed, the muscles on his face twitched slightly, and beads of sweat the size of beans slid down his forehead.
Xirihong looked at Ye Liangchen’s painful expression and her heart tightened. She wanted to say something to encourage him, but found that she could not make any sound. She could only pray for him silently.
Temari also felt his struggle. She bit her lower lip tightly. For some reason, she was secretly worried about this guy who was usually laughing.
Kan Jiulang silently raised the puppet in his hand, ready to provide support at any time.
At this moment, Ye Liangchen suddenly laughed, his laugh was somewhat bitter and with a hint of madness.
He raised his head and whispered to himself, “Just do it, Ole Ge!”
He slowly raised his fists, and chakra continued to gather on his fists like a surging tide.
His fists emitted dazzling light, like two suns about to explode.
“This time, I’m going to completely blow up this broken stone!”
He roared, his body trembling slightly, that was the power that was about to explode.
At this moment, Ye Liangchen suddenly turned his head and looked at Xirihong, with a barely perceptible weirdness in his tone, “Sister Hong, tell me, when I punch it, will it…?”
His words suddenly stopped before he finished speaking, and a strange smile appeared on his face.
“Sister Hong, do you think that when I punch it…will it…explode?” Ye Liangchen grinned, with a hint of crazy confidence in his smile.
Before he finished speaking, Ye Liangchen’s figure turned into a residual shadow, wrapped in violent chakra, and shot towards the guardian of the ruins like a cannonball.
Above the fists, the dazzling light was like two small suns, illuminating the entire space of the ruins.
“boom!”
There was a deafening roar that shook the earth.
The violent energy raged like a flood that broke through a dam, with sand and rocks flying everywhere and dust filling the air.
The shock wave shattered the surrounding rocks into powder, and the air was filled with a pungent burnt smell.
When the smoke cleared, everyone was horrified to find that the once invincible guardian of the ruins had now turned into a pile of rubble, scattered all over the ground.
Ye Liangchen, on the other hand, stood proudly among the ruins, like a god of war, exuding an aura that looked down upon the world.
“Fuck! Awesome!” Kan Jiulang couldn’t help but swear, his eyes full of disbelief.
Temari was also shocked. She had never seen such a powerful Genin, and her impression of Ye Liangchen changed completely.
Xi Ri Hong was also very excited when she saw the scene in front of her.
She knew Ye Liangchen was very strong, but she didn’t expect him to be this strong.
The look in her eyes when she looked at Ye Liangchen was full of admiration and satisfaction.
Ye Liangchen brushed the dust off his body and a faint smile appeared on his face.
He won this battle thoroughly, and it also made him more determined to pursue his ninja path.
He walked into the depths of the ruins, where there was a mysterious atmosphere.
He had a hunch that was where the secret book was.
After passing through a long and narrow passage, Ye Liangchen came to an empty cave.
In the center of the cave, there is an ancient stone platform, on which is placed an ancient scroll.
Ye Liangchen carefully picked up the scroll, opened it, and saw four big words written on it – “The Secret of Rasengan”.
“Wuhu! Take off!” Ye Liangchen shouted excitedly
He took the secret book and returned to his teammates happily.
When Yuhi Kurenai, Temari and Kanjiurou saw the secret book in his hand, they were all happy for him.
Ye Liangchen’s name is destined to be passed down in Konoha Village and Sand Village.
He became the biggest winner of this exploration of the ruins.
“Sister Hong…” Ye Liangchen scratched his head, holding the secret book tightly in his hand, like a primary school student who got full marks in the exam but did not dare to take credit for it.
Xihihong walked over to him, hugged him gently, and whispered softly in his ear: “You did a good job, Liangchen.”
A faint fragrance penetrated into Ye Liangchen’s nostrils, and he felt his cheeks getting a little hot.
The air around seemed to become sweet and filled with an ambiguous atmosphere.
Temari stood aside, watching the intimate actions of the two, while Kanjiro watched silently, secretly sighing in his heart: He is worthy of being the King of Konoha, he can even win the heart of the Jonin.
The group began to evacuate the ruins.
With previous experience, this evacuation went particularly smoothly.
The traps along the way were no longer useful to them, and the monsters that once terrified them disappeared without a trace.
They had a smooth journey, as if the ruins were seeing them off.
Ye Liangchen was even in the mood to hum a little tune, feeling as happy as if he had won the lottery.
Walking out of the ruins, the warm sunshine sprinkled on his body. Ye Liangchen took a deep breath, feeling the fresh air, feeling like he was reborn.
This exploration of the ruins not only allowed him to obtain the coveted secret book, but also increased his strength and gained valuable experience.
He felt like he was on a roll, and his whole body was full of strength.
“Wuhu! Let’s go home and have dinner!” Ye Liangchen shouted excitedly, and walked towards the direction of Konoha Village without recognizing any relatives.
Yuhi Kurenai, Temari and Kankuro followed behind him, their faces filled with joy of victory.
After returning to Konoha Village, Ye Liangchen found that the atmosphere was a little strange.
When the villagers saw him, they all looked at him strangely, whispered and pointed.
He even heard someone whisper: “That’s him, that’s him…”
Ye Liangchen’s heart was full of doubts, and an ominous premonition arose spontaneously.
He stopped, looked at Xi Ri Hong beside him, and asked: “Sister Hong, this is…”
Before Xi Rihong could answer, a slightly hoarse voice came from the crowd: “Ye Liangchen, you are finally back…”
032. Solving Doubts (Old Version)
Ye Liangchen asked around in the village with full of doubts.
He walked up to a group of villagers, stared at them and asked, “Why are you all looking at me like that?” The villagers avoided his gaze and muttered something vague, like “I don’t know” and “I don’t know”.
Ye Liangchen keenly felt from their evasive words that things were not simple.
He frowned and thought, and the villagers around him pointed at him.
Those strange looks were like thorns, making him feel uncomfortable all over.
He could hear the whispers, “It’s him, he must have used some unfair means,” “Why does he always get all the good things?” These voices were like flies buzzing in his ears.
The depressing atmosphere was like a heavy stone pressing on his heart.
It turned out that some ninjas in the village were jealous of Ye Liangchen for obtaining the ninjutsu secrets, so they secretly spread rumors, saying that he obtained it through improper means.
After hearing this, Ye Liangchen was so angry that his face turned red and his eyes seemed to be spitting fire.
His fists were clenched so tightly that his nails were almost digging into his flesh, and his heart was filled with a sense of grievance at being wronged.
He gnashed his teeth and said, “Why do these people slander me like this?”
His eyes became firm, as if he was determined to do something big.
He murmured in a low voice, “I must find out the source of these rumors.” After that, he turned and walked towards the darkness of the village, his back revealing a sense of determination.
Ye Liangchen is not a pushover. He is not an “honest man” who only knows how to practice hard.
He had a very sharp mind, as if he had activated a cheat, and he quickly locked onto those sneaky guys.
These guys always like to be critical of him, and now they can’t stand seeing him do well.
“Hmph, you want to mess with me? Don’t you see who your grandpa is!” Ye Liangchen sneered and turned on the “Sherlock Holmes Liangchen” mode.
He first observed secretly and found that these guys often gathered together to whisper, with wandering eyes, and it was obvious that they were not holding back their farts.
He also noticed that these people had been sneaking out of the village recently, and he didn’t know what they were doing.
“Little guy, don’t think I don’t know what you are doing.” Ye Liangchen’s mouth curled up slightly, and he already had a plan in mind.
When these ninjas saw Ye Liangchen coming to them, they all panicked.
They originally thought that Ye Liangchen was a silly boy who only knew how to practice, but they didn’t expect that he would discover their secret so quickly.
“What…what do you want to do?” one of the ninjas asked in a timid tone.
“I’m not doing anything, I just want to chat with you guys.” Ye Liangchen said with a smile, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.
When these ninjas knew that their plan was exposed, they decided to turn against each other and join forces to teach Ye Liangchen a lesson.
They just couldn’t believe it. So many people couldn’t beat a single Genin?
“Kid, don’t refuse a toast and then drink a forfeit!” A ninja shouted and launched the first attack.
Various ninjutsu attacked Ye Liangchen like raindrops, and the scene was very chaotic for a while.
Dust was flying, leaves were falling, and the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder.
Ye Liangchen did not dare to be careless. He dodged the attacks flexibly like a clever monkey.
While dodging, he observed the enemy’s weaknesses and looked for opportunities to counterattack.
“That’s it? That’s it?” Ye Liangchen dodged and mocked, “Your ninjutsu is too weak, it’s like tickling an itch.”
These ninjas were enraged by Ye Liangchen’s provocation. They attacked more frantically, wishing to tear Ye Liangchen into pieces.
Ye Liangchen sneered, and his eyes suddenly became sharp.
“It’s time to show you how powerful I am!” He whispered, and began to make hand seals…
“Wait, this feels like…”
Ye Liangchen curled the corners of his mouth, quickly formed seals with his hands, and whispered: “Mirror Return!” A dazzling white light burst out from his body, forming a huge circular barrier.
Those ninjutsu that flew towards him were like hitting an invisible wall and bounced back one after another.
“What the hell! What the hell?!” Before the ninjas could react, they were covered in the face by their own ninjutsu.
The fire escape technique singed his hair, the water escape technique drenched him like a drowned rat, and the earth escape technique covered him in mud. The scene was both funny and embarrassing.
“That’s it? That’s it?” Ye Liangchen crossed his arms over his chest, with an expression that said “that’s it” and asked for a beating. “I told you not to practice properly, now you know how powerful it is, right? My new secret book is no joke!”
When the dust settled, Ye Liangchen stood proudly, like a god of war, exuding a domineering aura.
He gently dusted himself off and said to himself: Sure enough, rebound is the strongest defense!
Xi Rihong, who had been silently paying attention to Ye Liangchen, had little stars in her eyes.
She walked to Ye Liangchen, her eyes full of admiration: “Liangchen, you are so awesome! That ninjutsu just now was so cool!”
As she spoke, she gently pulled Ye Liangchen’s hand. The soft, boneless little hand made Ye Liangchen feel numb inside.
The air around seemed to become sweet and filled with pink bubbles.
Ye Liangchen scratched his head a little embarrassedly: “Hehe, basic operation, don’t want 666, basic operation, don’t want 666.” Although he said this, he was very happy in his heart.
Just as Ye Liangchen was enjoying the joy of victory and the ambiguous atmosphere, a mysterious man in a black cloak suddenly appeared.
His deep voice broke the silence: “Young man, you are very good. But do you think this is the end? What you know is just the tip of the iceberg…”
The mysterious man paused, his tone becoming even more sinister: “I know a bigger secret, a secret that can subvert the entire Konoha…”
033. The Secret of Konoha (Old Version)
Ye Liangchen looked at the mysterious man who suddenly appeared in front of him. This mysterious man was wrapped in a black cloak, leaving only a pair of deep eyes that seemed to be able to see through people’s hearts.
Feeling the sudden change in the atmosphere, Xihi Hong immediately let go of Ye Liangchen’s hand, stood beside him vigilantly, with her hand lightly placed on the ninja tool bag, ready to fight at any time.
The mysterious man spoke slowly, his deep voice echoing in the air: “Young man, you are very good. But do you think this is the end? What you know is just the tip of the iceberg…” He paused, his tone even more sinister: “I know a bigger secret, a secret that can subvert the entire Konoha…”
Ye Liangchen’s heart was suddenly filled with shock. The air around him seemed to solidify, and even time seemed to have stopped.
He clenched his fists, his fingertips trembling slightly. He stared at the mysterious man, feeling extremely conflicted.
What exactly is this secret?
Is it a real existence or an elaborate trap?
“I can sense your doubts and uneasiness.” The mysterious man continued, with a hint of teasing in his tone, “But have you ever thought that if you miss this opportunity, you may never be able to solve the mystery in your heart.”
Ye Liangchen felt that the scene before his eyes seemed to become blurred, only the mysterious man’s deep eyes were still clearly visible.
It seemed as if two voices sounded in his ears, one telling him to be careful, and the other urging him to seize the opportunity.
Seeing this, Xi Rihong gently held Ye Liangchen’s shoulders and whispered, “Liangchen, you have to be careful, this person is very dangerous.”
Ye Liangchen took a deep breath, he looked at the mysterious man, his voice low and powerful: “Okay, tell me, what do you want to tell me? But you have to understand, if you dare to lie to me, don’t blame me for being rude.”
The mysterious man smiled, and that smile was a bit mysterious and provocative: “Very good, young man, you have enough courage. This secret is related to an ancient ninjutsu secret book, which contains the power to change the ninja world. But to get it, you need to accept a challenge…”
Ye Liangchen’s heartbeat quickened, and the mysterious man’s words echoed in his ears.
He felt a surge of blood. The mysterious man’s words were like a key that opened a door in his heart.
He clenched his fists, his chest filled with fighting spirit and determination.
At this moment, the mysterious man suddenly took a step forward and whispered: “Your journey has just begun…”
A smile appeared on Ye Liangchen’s lips and a determined light flashed in his eyes. He decided to accept the challenge.
Ye Liangchen’s eyes flashed, and the corners of his mouth curled up in an unruly arc, as if saying: “Making trouble? I, Ye Liangchen, have never been afraid of anyone!” He took a step forward and stood in front of Xi Rihong, and a momentum of “I will go even if there are thousands of people against me” instantly burst out.
Xiurihong looked at his tall and straight back, and her heart began to beat wildly. This man was really handsome!
“Challenge? You?” Ye Liangchen smiled contemptuously, his tone full of provocation, as if saying “You guy, why are you pretending to be so great in front of me?”
This tone and expression, he is simply a walking emoticon package. If it could be accompanied by barrage, the screen would definitely be full of “666”.
Seeing this, the mysterious man didn’t waste any time and took action directly.
He quickly formed seals with his hands, and a strange chakra burst out instantly, turning into countless black tentacles, like octopus tentacles, and attacked Ye Liangchen frantically.
Ye Liangchen had never heard of or seen this ninjutsu before, and was stunned for three seconds: “Oh my god, what the hell is this?!”
The tentacles came with great force, bringing with them a fishy smell, and were about to swallow Ye Liangchen.
Xi Ri Hong stamped her feet anxiously
Ye Liangchen was not someone to be trifled with. Although he was caught off guard, his reaction speed was extremely fast.
He did a backflip to avoid the first wave of attacks. After landing, he kicked his legs and rushed towards the mysterious man like an arrow.
“It’s my turn!” Ye Liangchen roared, clenching his fists, and the chakra in his body surged wildly.
He swung his fist, and his fist broke through the air and collided with the black tentacles, making a dull “bang” sound.
Although the tentacles were strange, they were actually showing signs of collapse under Ye Liangchen’s fierce attack.
The mysterious man changed his hand seals, and the tentacles attacked more violently, pouring down towards Ye Liangchen like a violent storm.
Ye Liangchen’s body was as fast as lightning, moving flexibly among the tentacles. Every dodge was just right, as if he was dancing on the edge of a knife, which made people terrified.
The surrounding trees were swept by the tentacles, breaking and falling one after another, and the fallen leaves fell like rain, and the whole scene was in a mess.
He dodged the attack again, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a wicked smile: “Warm-up is over, next, it’s my turn to perform!”
At this moment, the mysterious man suddenly stopped attacking. He slowly raised his head and revealed a strange smile. His deep voice echoed in the air: “Boy, you will regret this…”
Ye Liangchen used the experience he had accumulated in the exploration of the ruins and his newly acquired abilities to gradually adapt to the attacks of the mysterious man.
There was a determination gleam in his eyes, and every movement he made was full of power.
Although the mysterious man’s black tentacles attacked fiercely, Ye Liangchen, with his super god-level talent, could permanently increase his chakra value by one point with each normal attack. His normal attacks also caused true damage of 1% of his maximum chakra value, making him like an immortal war machine in battle.
“Ola Ola!” Ye Liangchen roared, and his fists smashed towards the black tentacles like meteors, and each hit made a crisp “bang bang” sound.
The tentacles gradually became sparse and could no longer pose a threat to Ye Liangchen.
His body was as fast as the wind, shuttling between the tentacles. Every dodge he made was just right, as if he was dancing on the edge of a knife. The surrounding trees were swept by the tentacles, breaking and falling one after another, and the fallen leaves fell like rain, and the whole scene was in a mess.
The mysterious man changed his handprints and his tentacle attack became more violent, but Ye Liangchen’s counterattack was also more sharp.
His eyes were as sharp as torches, and every move he made accurately hit the mysterious man’s defense. The mysterious man finally showed an expression of surprise on his face.
Ye Liangchen raised his lips slightly, revealing a wicked smile: “The warm-up is over, and now it’s my turn to perform!”
Ye Liangchen’s fist, carrying violent chakra, smashed hard on the mysterious man’s chest.
The mysterious man took a few steps back, staggering, a look of pain on his face.
He suddenly fell to the ground, breathing rapidly.
Ye Liangchen stood in front of him like a god of war, exuding an awe-inspiring aura.
Xi Rihong was worried about Ye Liangchen. She bit her lips nervously and clenched her fists.
When she saw Ye Liangchen gradually gaining the upper hand, her eyes were filled with relief and love.
She secretly admired in her heart: This man is so hopelessly handsome!
Ye Liangchen felt her gaze, his heart was filled with warmth, and his eyes became more determined.
Before the mysterious man fell, he muttered: “Boy, you will regret it…” There was a hint of threat in his words, but Ye Liangchen was unmoved. He just smiled coldly: “Regret? What I will regret is that I didn’t meet an opponent like you earlier.”
The mysterious man raised his head with difficulty, with a strange smile in his tone: “No, you will regret coming too late…” His words stopped abruptly, his body slowly fell to the ground and fell into a coma.
Ye Liangchen walked forward, bent down to pick up the black cloak dropped by the mysterious man, and found a yellowed parchment hidden inside.
He unfolded the parchment, which was covered with densely written ancient words.
A hint of curiosity flashed in Ye Liangchen’s eyes: “What is this?”
Xi Rihong walked forward and looked at the parchment with a trace of worry in her eyes: “Liangchen, I seem to have seen the words on it in ancient books. It seems to refer to an ancient place…”
Ye Liangchen’s face darkened and he whispered, “No matter where it is, I’m going to find out.” He put the parchment in his arms, his eyes firm, as if he had made up his mind.
The two looked at each other, with determination burning in their eyes.
Ye Liangchen turned and walked forward. At that moment, he seemed to have foreseen the challenges and dangers of the future.
As the sun sets, the afterglow shines on the backs of the two people, and the air is filled with a sense of unknown expectation.
“We must go to that place.” Ye Liangchen’s voice echoed in the wind, full of firmness and determination.
034. Peak Battle (Old Version)
Ye Liangchen and Xiurihong followed the instructions on the parchment and came to this dangerous place.
As soon as they stepped into this area, a thick dark aura rushed towards them, as if it was going to swallow them up.
The surrounding trees were twisted and dry, the ground was cracked, and the air was filled with a disgusting stench.
“Oh my god, this place is too horrible!” Ye Liangchen couldn’t help but complain and rubbed the goose bumps on his arms.
Xihihong also frowned, looked around, and said vigilantly: “Liangchen, be careful, something doesn’t feel right here.”
Ye Liangchen took a deep breath. He could feel a strong sense of oppression, as if a mountain was pressing on his chest, making it difficult for him to breathe.
There was deathly silence all around him, with only the rustling of wind through dry branches adding an eerie atmosphere.
The two moved forward cautiously, taking every step with extreme caution.
Suddenly, Ye Liangchen stopped and his eyes fell on a stone tablet not far ahead.
The stone tablet is engraved with ancient characters and emits a faint fluorescence.
“Hong, look!” Ye Liangchen said, pointing at the stone tablet.
Xi Rihong walked forward and carefully identified the words on the stone tablet, her expression gradually becoming solemn.
“This… this is…”
“What is it?” Ye Liangchen asked.
“This is… a record about the secret book of ninjutsu!” Yuhi Kurenai’s voice trembled a little, “It records the true origin of this secret book, and… the huge conspiracy hidden behind it!”
Ye Liangchen was shocked and asked quickly, “What conspiracy?”
Xihi Kurenai took a deep breath and said slowly: “This secret book is actually a trap! It will absorb the user’s chakra, and eventually cause the user to… explode and die!”
Ye Liangchen took a breath of cold air. He didn’t expect that this secret book was so dangerous!
“Then…then what is the purpose of this conspiracy?”
“It is to… weaken the strength of Konoha Village!” Yuhi Kurenai’s voice was low and solemn, “This secret book was deliberately placed here by someone, with the purpose of letting the ninjas of Konoha get it, and then… destroy themselves!”
Ye Liangchen’s face turned pale, and he realized that he had to make a decision.
Should I give up the secret book and save Konoha Village?
Or, for the sake of your own strength, do you keep the secret book and risk exploding to death?
He was struggling inside, and the darkness around him seemed to swallow him up.
“Liangchen…” Xihihong looked at him worriedly.
Ye Liangchen clenched his fists tightly, with a complicated look in his eyes.
He knew that this decision would affect the future of Konoha Village and his own destiny…
“I…” Ye Liangchen’s lips moved, “I…” He suddenly stopped, his eyes fell on an inconspicuous corner next to the stone tablet, where something seemed to be flashing a faint light.
“What is that?” Ye Liangchen said, pointing to the corner.
Xihi Hong followed his gaze and her expression changed slightly. “Let’s go and take a look…”
“Hong, I’ve thought it over. I can’t ignore the safety of the village for my own selfish interests! The power of this secret book should belong to the entire Konoha!”
Xiurihong was stunned. She didn’t expect Ye Liangchen to make such a decision.
She originally thought that he would choose to keep the secret book for his own strength, but she was wrong. Ye Liangchen’s righteousness made her feel extremely surprised and moved.
The darkness around him seemed to be illuminated by his light, and even the air became a lot fresher.
“Liangchen…” Xihihong’s voice was a little choked, “Have you… have you really decided?”
“Yes!” Ye Liangchen nodded firmly, “I have decided! The power of this secret book should be used to protect Konoha, not to satisfy my personal desires!”
At this moment, a cold voice came from the darkness: “Hehe, what a touching scene! Unfortunately, you don’t have a chance!”
A figure slowly walked out of the darkness. He had a strange mask on his face, so his expression could not be seen clearly.
“You… who are you?” Ye Liangchen asked vigilantly.
“Who am I? Haha, I am the man behind the scenes as you call me!” The masked man sneered, “Do you think you can stop me? You are so naive!”
“Hmph! Want to stop us? Ask my fist first if it agrees!” Ye Liangchen snorted coldly and walked forward fearlessly.
“Liangchen, be careful!” Xirihong followed closely and fought side by side with Ye Liangchen.
Ye Liangchen and Xi Rihong joined forces to fight the enemy. Their attacks poured out like a storm, forcing the masked man to retreat again and again.
Ye Liangchen’s fists carried great power, and each punch seemed to tear the air apart. His figure shuttled across the battlefield like a ghost, and his bravery and fearlessness were displayed to the fullest.
“Damn it! You ants!” The masked man roared, and a powerful chakra suddenly burst out from his body, pushing Ye Liangchen and Xiri Hong back a few steps.
“Humph! Is that all you can do?” Ye Liangchen sneered. “Next, it’s my turn…” Ye Liangchen’s mouth curled up slightly, revealing a sly smile, “True physical technique secrets!”
“The secret of the true physical technique: unlimited normal attacks!” Hundreds of Ye Liangchen shouted at the same time, like a tsunami, the sound waves made the surrounding trees tremble.
The next second, countless fists fell on the masked man like raindrops. Each punch carried a true damage of 1% of Ye Liangchen’s maximum chakra value, and the power was enormous!
“Bang, bang, bang!” The intensive sound of blows resounded throughout the battlefield. The masked man was beaten without any ability to fight back. His body was tossed around like a rag doll, and his screams continued.
“Ah! This is impossible! You…what kind of evil magic is this!”
“Witchcraft? No, this is my youth!” Ye Liangchen roared, and the strength of his fist increased a little more.
The masked man’s body had been beaten beyond recognition, his chakra had been exhausted, and he was about to collapse.
“Stop… stop…” the masked man begged weakly, “I… I was wrong…”
“Do you know you’re wrong now? It’s too late!” Ye Liangchen continued to attack mercilessly until the masked man completely lost consciousness.
After the battle, Xi Ri Hong looked at Ye Liangchen affectionately, “Liangchen, you…you are so awesome!”
Ye Liangchen scratched his head and chuckled: “It’s okay, just average.” He looked at Xi Ri Hong with tenderness in his eyes. The two of them couldn’t help but hug each other, and the surrounding was full of sweetness.
After this incident, Ye Liangchen became the hero of Konoha Village. His name was praised by everyone, and his reputation as the “King of Konoha” became even more famous.
He is not only powerful, but also possesses noble character. For the safety of the village, he gave up the powerful secret book. This righteous spirit moved everyone.
He and Yuhi Kurenai also started a new life. Their relationship became more stable and every day was sweet and fulfilling.
Amid the cheers of the crowd, Ye Liangchen and Xi Rihong stood at the entrance of the ruins, looking into the deep darkness inside. Xi Rihong gently pulled the corner of Ye Liangchen’s clothes, “Liangchen, you say…”
035. Fearless Depth (Old Version)
At the entrance to the ruins, the darkness was like the mouth of a giant beast, quietly waiting for the arrival of its prey.
Ye Liangchen and Xi Rihong stood side by side, looking into the bottomless depths that seemed to be able to swallow up all light.
They had suffered a lot in their last exploration and knew that the danger level of this ruins was definitely S+ level.
If it were someone else, they would have backed out long ago.
He is the King of Konoha!
Coupled with his curiosity about unknown things, danger?
Doesn’t exist!
“Teacher Hong, are you ready?” Ye Liangchen’s mouth corners slightly raised. He rubbed his hands, making a “hissing” friction sound, as if warming up for the upcoming adventure.
Xihihong looked at the energetic young man beside her and felt a warm feeling in her heart.
She knew that with Ye Liangchen around, any difficulty seemed to be easily solved.
She nodded, her eyes full of trust, as if to say: Go ahead, I’m behind you!
The two men stepped into the ruins cautiously, and their footsteps echoed in the empty passage, like the knell of death.
The surroundings were eerily quiet, even the air seemed frozen, making people feel creepy.
The mottled marks on the surrounding stone walls seemed to be telling ancient secrets, reminding them all the time that this was by no means a good place.
However, when they walked to the place where they fought last time, they found that everything had changed!
The once familiar road now became strange and weird, as if it had been rearranged by some mysterious force.
Ye Liangchen frowned, feeling as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.
It’s like playing a game and finally memorizing the map, but then the map is suddenly updated!
“What the hell is this?” He couldn’t help but complain, “Is fate playing tricks on me? Can’t it just let me explore the adventure in peace?”
After a brief moment of frustration, Ye Liangchen quickly adjusted his mentality.
He is the man who wants to be Hokage!
How could I be defeated by such a small setback?
He took a deep breath, as if to cheer himself up, “Humph, you think you can stump me with this little trick? No way!” He patted his chest, and his eyes were filled with fighting spirit again.
Xihihong looked at him with a gentle smile on her face.
She believed that no matter what difficulties she encountered, Ye Liangchen would be able to find a solution.
She gently held his hand, as if to say: Don’t be afraid, I’m here with you.
Ye Liangchen turned his head and saw Xirihong’s trusting eyes, and his heart was suddenly filled with strength.
The corners of his mouth curled up, revealing his signature sunny smile.
The two people smiled at each other, as if all the difficulties were not worth mentioning.
Ye Liangchen brought Xi Rihong with him and began to explore the maze-like ruins.
They moved forward cautiously, sometimes observing the patterns on the wall, sometimes feeling the flow in the air.
Just when they thought they were at a dead end, they found a new passage around a corner.
Just as Ye Liangchen was about to step in, he suddenly discovered a complicated mechanism at the entrance of the passage.
He stopped and his eyes became serious…
Ye Liangchen squatted down, squinted his eyes, and carefully observed the structure of the mechanism as if scanning a QR code.
This mechanism is extremely complicated, with various gears, buckles, and runes intertwined together, like a ball of wool that has been played with by a cat, so messy that it makes people’s scalp numb.
“Tsk tsk, this thing is quite interesting.” Ye Liangchen touched his chin, his mind working rapidly, and his previous experience with mechanisms flashed through his mind like a kaleidoscope.
It feels like playing an escape room, so exciting!
He reached out and fiddled with the parts on the mechanism a few times. The clicking sound echoed in the silent passage, like the ticking of an ancient clock.
The operating rules of the mechanism gradually became clear in his mind, just like playing Tetris, he found the best elimination strategy.
“Bingo!” Ye Liangchen raised the corner of his mouth and confidently pressed a hidden button.
With a loud “boom”, the wall of the passage slowly opened, revealing a hidden small secret room.
“Wow, awesome, Liangchen!” Xi Ri Hong was stunned watching from the side, her eyes full of stars. This look of admiration was even more fanatical than that of a fan seeing her idol.
Ye Liangchen raised his eyebrows proudly. This move must be shown off!
He walked into the secret room first, and an ancient atmosphere filled his face. There were some glittering treasures placed inside, which were obviously worth a lot of money.
“I’m rich, I’m rich!” Ye Liangchen rubbed his hands, feeling that his life had reached its peak.
However, just as the two were immersed in joy, the vibration of the secret room broke the tranquility.
The sound of “dong dong dong” footsteps came closer and closer, getting louder and louder, as if some huge monster was approaching.
A huge figure appeared at the door of the secret room, emitting a terrifying aura. It was more powerful than the guardian of the ruins they had encountered before.
Without saying a word, it launched an attack, sending a powerful energy wave towards the two of them.
“Oh my god, what the hell is this!” Ye Liangchen hurriedly pulled Xirihong to avoid it, but they were still shocked by the residual power of the energy wave and retreated again and again.
The surrounding stones fell down with a “clatter”, dust flew everywhere, and the scene was very chaotic for a while.
Ye Liangchen gritted his teeth and said, “Teacher Hong, be careful!”
“Liangchen…” Xirihong’s face was solemn and she held Ye Liangchen’s hand tightly.
“Humph, you want to bully us? That’s not that easy!” Ye Liangchen’s eyes shone,…
“Hmph, you want to bully us? Not that easy!” Ye Liangchen’s eyes flashed, chakra surged wildly, and his hands quickly formed seals.
“The technique of multiple shadow clones!” In an instant, more than a dozen Ye Liangchen appeared in the secret room, filling the already small space.
“Oh my god, so many people?!” Xi Ri Hong was stunned. With this number, they could form a boy band and debut!
The guardian was also confused. What was going on?
Wasn’t it just a one-on-one duel?
Why did it suddenly turn into a group fight?
“Brothers, charge!” Ye Liangchen gave an order, and the shadow clones rushed towards the guardian like wild horses, and their fists and kicks fell like raindrops.
The sound of “bang bang bang” was endless, as lively as setting off firecrackers during the New Year.
Although the guardian is huge in size, it is unable to withstand such intensive attacks.
It roared and waved its huge claws, trying to swat away the annoying “flies”.
However, Ye Liangchen’s shadow clone is not a vegetarian.
They nimbly dodged the guardian’s attacks, and occasionally made a feint to the east and attacked in the west, harassing the guardian to the point of being upset.
Ye Liangchen’s real body seized the opportunity, condensed chakra, and smashed the guardian with a powerful “Rasengan”.
With a loud “bang”, the guardian was blown back repeatedly, with bursts of black smoke coming out of his body.
“Beautiful!” Xi Ri Hong was so excited watching from the side that she wished she could go up and throw a few punches herself.
After a fierce battle, the guardian finally fell to the ground and turned into ashes.
Ye Liangchen stood there, majestic, with Xiurihong’s eyes full of love.
After the battle, Xiurihong walked gently to Ye Liangchen and leaned lightly on his shoulder.
“Liangchen, you are so awesome.” Her voice was as warm as the spring breeze, with a hint of shyness.
Ye Liangchen felt her tenderness and hugged her gently.
Just as they were immersed in this warm moment, the ruins suddenly shook violently, as if a greater danger was about to come.
They became alert and turned their eyes to the source of the vibration.
“What’s going on?” Ye Liangchen’s face changed and he said in a deep voice.
Xihihong shook her head, her expression solemn, “I don’t know, but it doesn’t feel good…”
Ye Liangchen held Xi Rihong’s hand tightly and said, “Let’s go and take a look.”
036. Breaking the game with wisdom (old version)
Deep in the ruins, the ground was shaking, as if some prehistoric behemoth was about to break out of the ground.
Ye Liangchen and Xi Rihong looked at each other, and a shadow was cast over their hearts.
The two of them quickly took a few steps back, only then could they see the source of the vibration – a huge puzzle device suddenly appeared before their eyes.
This thing is like a huge stone plate, densely engraved with all kinds of strange symbols and patterns, which is dazzling to look at.
These symbols are neither the hand seals of ninjutsu nor any known characters. They are simply like the “heavenly book” left by aliens.
Ye Liangchen’s eyes almost popped out of his head. This was ten times more difficult than any test he had ever taken!
He rubbed his temple, walked forward, and began to observe the symbols carefully.
He sometimes frowned and sometimes touched his chin, looking like a crazy college student who was going crazy trying to meet the deadline (DDL).
Xihihong stood aside, looking at his focused expression, and felt nervous in her heart, because this was the key to the secret deep in the ruins.
“What the hell is this thing?” Ye Liangchen muttered, sliding his fingers across the stone plate, trying to find some clues from it.
However, this stone plate was like a “black hole”, and no matter how he looked at it, he felt he had no idea where to start.
As time passed, the air around seemed to freeze.
Sweat beads began to appear on Ye Liangchen’s forehead. He began to doubt whether his IQ was low. The difficulty of this puzzle was simply hell mode!
He began to feel shaken. Was he really going to be trapped by this little puzzle?
If this gets out, how can I survive in Konoha Village?
“Liangchen, don’t be anxious, take your time.” Xirihong came over and gently patted his shoulder, her voice gentle but firm, “I believe in you, you can definitely solve it.”
Hearing Xirihong’s encouragement, Ye Liangchen felt warm in his heart. He looked up at her, feeling the trust and support in her eyes, and a feeling of unwillingness rose in his heart again.
Damn it, this is a great opportunity that determines whether I can make further progress. How can I give up so easily?
“I’ll try again!” Ye Liangchen took a deep breath and fixed his eyes on the stone plate again.
He concentrated his attention again and started to read it from beginning to end, not missing any symbol or pattern, his brain working at a rapid speed.
Just as he was concentrating, Xi Rihong keenly caught the slight change on Ye Liangchen’s face. He frowned and pursed his lips slightly. It seemed that some clues were gradually becoming clear in his mind…
“I seem…” Ye Liangchen murmured to himself.
It was as if a flash of lightning flashed through Ye Liangchen’s mind, instantly connecting all those complicated symbols together.
He slapped his thigh suddenly, “I understand! This is not a divine book at all, it’s a math problem!”
He chuckled and felt like Columbus who discovered the New World. His self-confidence instantly surged.
It turns out that these seemingly random symbols actually represent different numbers and operation symbols.
The owner of this relic might be the reincarnation of a mathematician, right?
I saw his fingers moving rapidly on the stone plate, like a keyboard warrior typing madly.
Xiuri Hong was watching in amazement, thinking that this boy might have used some kind of cheat. The speed at which he solved the problem was even faster than when she was practicing hand seals.
“Click–” With a crisp sound, a crack suddenly appeared in the center of the stone plate, and a dazzling light gushed out, making it impossible for people to open their eyes.
When the light faded, a fist-sized scroll emitting a faint golden light lay quietly inside.
“Fuck, it’s really a treasure!” Ye Liangchen grinned from ear to ear and rubbed his hands excitedly, as if he saw countless experience points and chakra waving to him.
This time, it’s a huge profit!
“Liangchen, you’re awesome!” Xiurihong was also happy for him, her eyes full of appreciation and satisfaction, her cheeks slightly flushed, and her tone with a hint of tenderness, as if she was praising her boyfriend.
However, just as the two were immersed in joy, the air around them suddenly became sticky, and an uncomfortable and cold breath quietly spread.
“Hehehe…” A creepy and strange laugh came from all directions.
Immediately afterwards, a group of people wearing black cloaks and strange masks on their faces walked out of the darkness like ghosts.
They were holding all kinds of ninja tools in their hands, their eyes were filled with greed and murderous intent, they were Orochimaru’s men!
“Hmph! It’s really a case of searching for something everywhere but finally finding it without any effort. The treasure is ours.” A leading man said with a sinister smile, his voice hoarse and harsh.
Before Ye Liangchen could react, the men in black attacked them like hungry wolves pouncing on their prey.
The lights of various ninjutsu intertwined together, and a piercing roar erupted deep in the ruins.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!” The explosions came one after another, dust flew, and gravel splashed, and the entire ruins seemed to be about to be overturned.
Ye Liangchen and Xirihong were caught off guard and were somewhat embarrassed by the sudden attack.
“Damn it!” Ye Liangchen cursed. He didn’t expect that the puzzle he solved with so much effort would turn out to be a favor to others. This was simply too unbelievable.
“Be careful!” Yuhi Kurenai shouted and quickly released ninjutsu to block the incoming attack.
While fighting, she signaled Ye Liangchen with her eyes, as if she had some plan.
Ye Liangchen raised his eyebrows and looked at Xi Rihong, with gleams in their eyes.
“I say…” Ye Liangchen stared at the man in black and spoke slowly.
“I say, did you come to the wrong set?” Ye Liangchen dodged the shuriken attack while complaining, “We are doing a serious archaeological expedition here, why are you guys in black coming here to mess up?”
His steps were nimble and slippery like a loach, and he was always able to avoid attacks just in time.
At the same time, he kept swinging the kunai in his hand, each move directly targeting the enemy’s vital points. Although the force seemed not great, it could always cause considerable damage to the enemy.
With every normal attack, Ye Liangchen could feel the increase of chakra in his body, which made him more and more courageous and excited as if he had been injected with chicken blood.
Xihi Kurenai fully demonstrated the qualities of a master of illusion, Magic Tree Binding Kill!
She quickly formed seals with her hands, and the surrounding trees seemed to come alive. The vines wrapped around the men in black like spirit snakes, making them unable to move.
“Hmph, you little minions think you can steal our treasures? What a pipe dream!” Ye Liangchen sneered and started the “movement + output” mode. His figure shuttled among the men in black like a ghost, and the kunai in his hand was like the scythe of the god of death, accurately harvesting the enemy’s health.
“Ah! Ah! Ah!” Screams rang out one after another, and the men in black fell down like wheat being cut.
They originally thought that this was just a simple task, but they hit a wall unexpectedly. The fighting power of these two Genin was off the charts!
Seeing that the situation was not good, the leading man in black cursed “bad luck” in his heart and quickly ordered a retreat.
“Retreat! Retreat quickly!”
The remaining men in black threw away their weapons and fled in a panic as if they had been pardoned.
“Tsk, a bunch of rookies!” Ye Liangchen curled his lips in disdain as he looked at their fleeing backs.
“Liangchen, are you okay?” Xiurihong asked with concern, her eyes full of tenderness.
Ye Liangchen smiled and hugged Xi Rihong, “It’s okay, it’s just a small scene, nothing to worry about~”
Yuhi Kurenai also hugged him tightly, feeling each other’s warmth, and the air around them was filled with pink bubbles.
“Good morning…” Xi Ri Hong whispered softly, her cheeks flushed.
“Hong…” Ye Liangchen also looked at her affectionately.
At this sweet moment, the ruins suddenly shook violently, the sound of “boom” was deafening, stones above the head kept falling, and the entire ruins seemed to be about to collapse.
“Oh no! The ruins are going to collapse!” Ye Liangchen’s face changed.
“We have to get out quickly!” Xi Ri Hong also realized the danger.
The two quickly let go of each other and ran towards the exit.
“Wait…” Ye Liangchen suddenly stopped and his eyes were fixed on a corner not far away.
“What’s wrong?” Xi Ri Hong asked in confusion.
Ye Liangchen did not answer, but walked straight to the corner, stretched out his hand to push aside a pile of rubble, revealing a…
037. Return of Glory (Old Version)
“Boom boom—”
The deafening sound of collapse exploded in my ears, and the entire ruins were like a dying beast, uttering its final wail.
Gravel fell like raindrops, the air was filled with a choking smell of dust, and visibility dropped sharply.
“Fuck! This relic is for real!” Ye Liangchen spat out the ashes in his mouth, took Xi Rihong’s hand, and ran towards the exit without looking back.
“Sister Hong, hold on to me and don’t fall behind!” he shouted loudly, with a hint of nervousness in his voice, but more of an inexplicable excitement. This sense of stimulation was simply too great!
The two men dodged left and right in the shaking passage, avoiding the falling boulders.
There was the loud sound of falling rocks in my ears and the uneven ground under my feet, and every step I took was terrifying.
In addition to the smell of dust, there is also a faint smell of burning in the air, which is the heat generated by the friction of stones.
They felt like they were playing a real-life parkour, except that the track this time was a bit hardcore, and if they weren’t careful they would be buried under the rubble.
“Huh…Huh…” Xirihong was also a little out of breath. She followed Ye Liangchen closely, feeling the warmth from his hands.
After finally running to the exit, they were dumbfounded.
The original exit has now been completely blocked by a huge rock, leaving no gap at all.
“What? Are you kidding me?” Ye Liangchen widened his eyes with an expression of disbelief.
Is this plot direction too outrageous?
“Is it going to be a failure?” He muttered to himself, and glanced at Xi Rihong from the corner of his eye, but found that she was still calm, with a hint of determination in her eyes, as if saying: Don’t give up, we can definitely get out!
An inexplicable power suddenly surged in Ye Liangchen’s chest, as well as a stubbornness that refused to admit defeat.
He shook his head, dispelling the decadence in his heart. Yes, this was him, Ye Liangchen, how could he fall down here?
“Sister Hong, it seems that God wants to play hide-and-seek with us!” He grinned, revealing his white teeth. “In that case, let’s play with him!”
He held Xi Rihong’s hand tightly and looked around with a determined look, “I don’t believe that this broken relic can still trap us!”
They began to search the ruins carefully, not leaving out any suspicious corner.
The flashlight swept back and forth in the darkness, illuminating the determined expressions on their faces.
“Crack—”
Suddenly, there was a crisp cracking sound under Ye Liangchen’s feet.
He looked down and found that he had stepped on a loose floor tile…
“Sister Hong, look…” His voice stopped abruptly and a look of disbelief appeared on his face.
“Sister Hong, look quickly…” Ye Liangchen’s voice trembled slightly as he pointed at the broken floor tile under his feet.
Xiurihong also came over, and with the help of the flashlight, they both saw a dark hole under the floor tiles.
“Oh my god, this ruins is so fun, right? It feels like an escape room!” Ye Liangchen couldn’t help but complain, but his eyes were full of excitement.
Is this the legendary hopeless situation?
The two looked at each other, nodded, and then jumped down without hesitation.
The hole was not deep and there was only a slight vibration when I landed.
They found that this was a long and narrow passage with some ancient runes carved on the walls, emitting a faint light.
The air was filled with a damp smell, mixed with a hint of ancient atmosphere.
“This passage feels like there is something here!” Ye Liangchen walked while stroking the runes on the wall, feeling like he was exploring for treasure.
Suddenly, he kicked something under his feet. Looking down, he found some scroll fragments scattered on the ground, on which some ninjutsu secrets were recorded in ancient characters.
“Oh shit! What is this? Could it be the legendary hidden treasure?” Ye Liangchen’s eyes lit up instantly, as if he had discovered a new continent.
He quickly picked up the fragments and put them carefully into his backpack. He was so happy that he made a lot of money!
Xirihong couldn’t help but smile when she saw Ye Liangchen’s money-obsessed look, but in her heart she admired his attentiveness and sharpness even more.
She found that every time she carried out a mission with Ye Liangchen, there would always be unexpected surprises. This man really made people more and more curious.
The two continued walking along the passage. The temperature around them was getting lower and lower, and the air was becoming a little chilly.
After walking for about ten minutes, a ray of light appeared at the end of the passage.
“Exit? Are we finally getting out?” Ye Liangchen quickened his pace excitedly. However, when they rushed out of the passage, the scene before them stunned them for a moment.
In front of me, there was a group of humanoid monsters standing densely.
They had ferocious faces and let out low roars. They stared at them like hungry wolves, as if they wanted to tear them to pieces.
“Oh my god, are these guys here to get killed?” Ye Liangchen licked his lips, feeling the surging chakra in his body, and was eager to give it a try.
Xihi Hong’s expression also became solemn. She took a deep breath, held the kunai in her hand, and looked at the monster in front of her with a firm gaze.
“Sister Hong, are you ready to go big?” Ye Liangchen grinned, revealing his signature sunny smile.
He knew it was time to show his true skills.
He clenched his fists tightly, and a powerful force was awakening in his body
“This time, we’re going to do something big!”
“Come on, little darlings!” Ye Liangchen smiled evilly and his figure disappeared instantly.
When he appeared again, he was already standing in front of a monster. The kunai in his hand flashed a cold light, and with a “puff”, the monster fell to the ground.
“What a fast speed!” Xi Ri Hong sighed in her heart, and her hands moved quickly as well. The illusion, magic, and tree binding were activated, and several monsters were instantly entangled by the huge trees and could not move.
Ye Liangchen moved among the group of monsters like a ghost, and every move he made was clean and neat, without any delay.
The new ninjutsu he had learned, combined with his super strong physical skills, was like a bug.
The monsters were like paper in front of him and were vulnerable to any blow.
“Rasengan!” Ye Liangchen shouted softly, and the chakra in his hand spun wildly, forming a high-speed rotating blue energy ball, which smashed hard into a monster.
“Boom!” With a loud bang, the monster was blown away, knocking down a large number of its companions.
“Handsome!” Xi Ri Hong couldn’t help but applaud.
The battle lasted for half an hour, and the number of monsters became fewer and fewer.
Although Ye Liangchen’s chakra consumption was huge, the golden finger in his body continuously replenished his chakra, allowing him to always maintain his peak condition.
“The final blow!” Ye Liangchen jumped high, and the kunai in his hand condensed powerful chakra and struck down like a lightning.
The last monster fell, and peace returned to the ruins.
“Huh…” Ye Liangchen let out a long sigh and looked at the monster corpses all over the ground, his heart filled with a sense of accomplishment.
Xihihong walked up to him and looked at him lovingly, “Are you okay?”
Ye Liangchen smiled and said, “Of course it’s okay, it’s just a small scene, nothing to worry about!”
The two hugged each other tightly, feeling each other’s warmth.
The surrounding sunlight shone on them, as if blessing their victory and love.
After returning to Konoha, Ye Liangchen instantly became the focus.
The gains from the ruins and his heroic deeds made him a hero of Konoha Village.
“Ye Liangchen, you are so amazing!”
“Ye Liangchen, you are our pride!”
The praises were endless. Ye Liangchen had a faint smile on his face, but his mind was extremely clear.
He knew that this was just the beginning and there was still a long way to go.
Suddenly, he felt several unusual gazes, staring at him like poisonous snakes.
“It seems that someone has set their sights on me…” Ye Liangchen thought to himself, with a sneer on his face, “Then come on, I, Ye Liangchen, will take the challenge!”
An Anbu ninja quietly walked to the Hokage’s office, leaned over and whispered: “Hokage, over at the Sound Village…”
038. First Battle (Old Version)
The Anbu ninja knelt on one knee, and his deep voice echoed in the Hokage’s office: “Reporting to the Hokage, the Sound Village sent people to Konoha with the intention of…” He paused and emphasized his tone, “Provocation!”
Tsunade slammed the table so hard that the teacup jumped up. “Provocation? How dare they do that!” She frowned and swept her sharp eyes over the elders present. “Is the Sound Village trying to test the bottom line of our Konoha?”
At the same time, Ye Liangchen had just returned to Konoha when he smelled a hint of something unusual.
The air was filled with tension. Pedestrians on the street were hurrying along, and their whispers kept reaching his ears.
“Have you heard? The ninjas from Sound Village are here to provoke us!”
“That’s right! I heard that they were very arrogant and were shouting directly under the Hokage Rock!”
“What should we do? Where will our Konoha’s reputation be saved?”
Ye Liangchen raised his eyebrows, and a fighting spirit surged in his heart.
“Provocation? Interesting!” He raised a confident smile, “It seems that the time has come for me to make an appearance!”
He quickened his pace and ran towards the Hokage Rock.
Along the way, the villagers were talking one after another, some were worried, some were expectant, but more importantly, they were afraid of the unknown.
Ye Liangchen felt this atmosphere and his fighting spirit became even stronger.
He took a deep breath and swore to himself: “I, Ye Liangchen, will definitely protect the glory of Konoha!”
Under the Hokage Rock, two ninjas from the Sound Village were shouting arrogantly.
One of them was tall, with long purple hair fluttering in the wind. It was Tayuya who was good at sonic ninjutsu.
The other man was huge and muscular, and he was the powerful Jirobo.
In front of them stood several Konoha ninjas, but they seemed helpless.
At this moment, Ye Liangchen appeared in front of everyone like a gust of wind.
He stared at Tayuya and Jirobo with a sharp gaze and said in a deep voice: “I am the one you want to challenge!”
A white-haired old man from the elders stood up, pointed at Ye Liangchen’s nose, and said sternly: “Nonsense! How can you, a Genin, fight for Konoha? Isn’t this nonsense?!”
Ye Liangchen met the elder’s gaze without fear, and said in a loud voice: “Elder, I know you are worried that I will bring shame to Konoha, but please believe me, I have the strength!” His tone was firm and unquestionable.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became awkward, and the surrounding ninjas looked at Ye Liangchen.
Ye Liangchen turned to look at Tsunade, waiting for her final decision.
Tsunade looked at him deeply and said in a deep voice: “Ye Liangchen, you…”
Tsunade looked at Ye Liangchen deeply and said in a deep voice: “Ye Liangchen, you will fight on behalf of Konoha!”
The elders all expressed their opposition, but Tsunade was firm and made the final decision: “I believe in Ye Liangchen’s ability! He will be responsible for this battle!”
Tayuya smiled contemptuously and thought to herself, is there no one left in Konoha?
They actually sent a Genin to fight?
She held the cat and said nonchalantly, “Little brother, sister advises you to go back and drink milk obediently, otherwise you will cry later.”
Ye Liangchen curled the corners of his mouth and revealed a confident smile: “Miss, you should worry about yourself, otherwise you won’t be able to cry later.” He moved his wrist, making a “click” sound, and his eyes instantly became sharp.
“Start!” With Tsunade’s order, the duel officially began.
Tayuya originally thought that Ye Liangchen would conduct some tests first like other Konoha ninjas.
But she never expected that Ye Liangchen would start with a set of “Lightning Five Whips” at a speed that was dazzling.
“Oh my god! This kid uses his ultimate move right away!” The onlookers exclaimed.
Duoyou was caught off guard and was almost hit in the face by Ye Liangchen’s normal attack.
She quickly stepped back, looking at Ye Liangchen in surprise and suspicion. This kid doesn’t play by the rules!
Ye Liangchen would not give her a chance to breathe, he took advantage of the victory and pursued her, punching and kicking her like raindrops.
“Fuck! This guy must be cheating! The speed is too fast!” Someone in the audience couldn’t help but swear.
Tayuya finally reacted and quickly played the flute, launching a sonic attack.
The sharp and piercing sound waves turned into an invisible blade and attacked Ye Liangchen.
Ye Liangchen dodged left and right, narrowly avoiding the sonic attack.
At this moment, Jirobo seized the opportunity and launched an attack from the side. His huge fist smashed towards Ye Liangchen with a whistling sound.
“Danger!” Xi Ri Hong exclaimed, her heart in her throat.
Ye Liangchen was attacked from all sides and the situation was extremely critical.
He dodged Jirobo’s attack by turning sideways, but the sound wave followed closely and brushed past his cheek, leaving a tiny trace of blood.
“This kid is doomed!” The elders looked grim and thought to themselves that something was wrong.
Gaara watched this scene with great interest.
Ye Liangchen took a deep breath and his eyes became more determined.
He did not panic, but instead showed a strange smile.
“This is just the beginning…” he whispered.
Ye Liangchen took a deep breath and quickly formed seals with his hands.
The chakra accumulated in the body surged out like a surging river.
“Wind Style: Rasengan!” A small but fast-spinning wind ball formed in his hand, making a sharp whistling sound.
This is the small Rasengan that he created by using his golden finger and accumulating chakra through countless normal attacks, and compressing and refining it!
“A mere trifle!” Duoyou sneered, and the sound of the flute became more rapid. The sound waves turned into invisible sharp blades, attacking Ye Liangchen like an overwhelming force.
“Boom!” The Rasengan collided with the sound wave, causing a deafening roar.
A huge energy wave swept across the entire place, and smoke and dust filled the air, obscuring everyone’s vision.
The onlookers stepped back and covered their ears, fearing that they would be affected by this powerful energy.
The smoke and dust cleared, and Ye Liangchen’s figure appeared in front of everyone again.
He was unharmed, but Duo Youya was knocked back several steps, his face slightly pale.
She looked at Ye Liangchen in disbelief, her heart filled with shock: How could this kid’s chakra be so huge?
!
Xirihong watched the fight nervously from the side. When she saw Ye Liangchen resolve the crisis, she couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. Ye Liangchen felt her gaze and a warm feeling surged in his heart.
He smiled at her, and there was a hint of ambiguity in the air.
“Hmph, you’ve got some tricks!” Duoyouya snorted coldly, coming back to his senses from the shock.
She played the flute again, and the sonic attack became even more powerful.
At the same time, Jirobo also launched an attack from the side, and his huge fist smashed towards Ye Liangchen like a cannonball.
Ye Liangchen dodged Jirobou’s attack with a flash, and at the same time, he also figured out Jirobou’s attack rhythm.
A sly smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he thought to himself: “I’m just waiting for you to reveal your flaws!”
He took advantage of the gap in Jirobo’s attack and instantly launched a set of “Konoha Taijutsu Secret Technique·Thousand Years of Killing·Modified” and hit Jirobo’s vital point.
“Ouch–” Jirobo let out a scream, and his huge body fell to the ground with a bang, rolling on the ground while holding his butt.
“Jirobo!” Tayouya’s face changed drastically when he saw this.
She glared at Ye Liangchen angrily, the sound of the flute became more rapid, and the power of the sonic attack increased.
Ye Liangchen was not afraid at all, and fighting spirit burned in his eyes.
“Come on! Let me see what else you can do!”
He took a deep breath and began to form seals with his hands again, and an even more powerful chakra wave emanated from his body.
“This kid…” Gaara looked at Ye Liangchen with interest, a gleam in his eyes, “Interesting…”
Ye Liangchen looked at the furious Duoyouya, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he slowly said: “The real battle has just begun…”
039. Keen Insight (Old Version)
“Damn little brat!” Tayouya saw Jirobo being knocked down by the Chienen Sha, and was filled with shame and anger. The sound of the flute suddenly became sharp and piercing, and the sound waves were like sharp blades, carrying a fierce murderous aura, attacking Ye Liangchen like an overwhelming force.
Ye Liangchen dodged left and right, his body as agile as a loach, barely avoiding the sonic attack.
However, he was keenly aware that the trajectory of these sound waves seemed a little strange, not coming entirely towards him, and the landing points of some of the sound waves seemed…
Is it conveying some kind of message?
Alarm bells rang in his heart and his brows were furrowed. Could there be another mystery behind this?
The air around them seemed to freeze, and the atmosphere of the battle became increasingly tense.
Gaara, who was watching the fight, crossed his arms with interest, an inexplicable light flashing in his eyes. This farce seemed to be much more interesting than he had imagined.
While Ye Liangchen was dodging Duoyouya’s sonic attack, he was rapidly calculating in his mind.
He knew very well that the current situation was not optimistic. If he continued to be distracted by thinking about the abnormality of the sound waves, it was very likely that Tayuya would seize the opportunity and deal a fatal blow.
However, he was unwilling to give up the exploration just like that.
What if this really is a huge conspiracy, then wouldn’t I have missed the opportunity to save Konoha and reach the peak of my life?
“Should I take a gamble?” Ye Liangchen was extremely conflicted and his expression became hesitant.
At this moment, he suddenly felt a strong chakra fluctuation coming from a distance. It was…
Lady Tsunade!
“Liangchen, be careful!” Tsunade’s voice sounded in Ye Liangchen’s ears like a thunder.
Ye Liangchen looked up suddenly and saw Tsunade’s eyes fixed on the flute in Tayuya’s hand with a serious expression, as if she had discovered something terrible.
“That flute…” Tsunade said in a deep voice, “There’s something wrong with it!”
Ye Liangchen’s heart trembled. Lady Tsunade’s words further confirmed his guess. There was indeed a bigger secret hidden behind this sonic ninjutsu!
He took a deep breath, his eyes gradually became firm, and he thought to himself: “No matter what, let’s fight!”
He suddenly stopped dodging and looked directly into Tayuya’s eyes, a confident smile on his face.
“Do you think you’re the only one who can play with sound waves?”
Ye Liangchen slowly raised his right hand, put his index finger and middle finger together, placed them to his mouth, and whistled softly.
“Shh—”
The sharp flute sounded again, and the sound waves hit Ye Liangchen like dense raindrops.
Tayuya seized the moment when Ye Liangchen whistled and increased the output of chakra, making the attack more rapid and fierce.
“I let you show off! Now you know how powerful I am!” She was secretly proud of herself.
Ye Liangchen was not paying attention for a moment and his left arm was hit by a sound wave. A burning pain instantly spread throughout his body.
“Hiss—this girl is so cruel!” He took a breath and a long blood mark appeared on his arm.
A faint smell of blood permeated the air, irritating his nerves.
The audience around also exclaimed and were worried about Ye Liangchen.
“This kid is out of his mind!” someone whispered.
The pain did not make Ye Liangchen retreat, but instead aroused his fighting spirit.
His eyes became more determined and a wicked smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
“You little brat, do you really think I’m afraid of you?” he thought to himself.
Ye Liangchen suddenly accelerated, his figure flashed like a ghost, and he instantly closed the distance with Duoyouya.
Sonic attacks require a certain range to exert their maximum power, and close combat makes Tayuya’s flute useless.
“Let me show you what a melee mage is!”
Ye Liangchen’s fists fell on Duoyouya like raindrops.
Each attack was accompanied by a surge of chakra, becoming more and more powerful.
The chakra bonus brought by the golden finger makes him more and more courageous in battle, like a tireless perpetual motion machine.
Tayuya’s confident smile gradually disappeared, replaced by horror and disbelief.
“How is this possible! His power…” She couldn’t understand how a Genin could possess such powerful strength and endless chakra.
Ye Liangchen’s attacks became more and more fierce, and Duoyou could only defend passively and was defeated step by step.
The sound of her flute also became intermittent and she could no longer form an effective attack.
“It’s over!” Ye Liangchen shouted, and his fist went straight to Tayuya’s face with a whistling sound.
Gaara looked at the scene in front of him. Gaara looked at the wound on Ye Liangchen’s left arm and thought to himself, “This kid is interesting.” He originally thought that this was just a farce, but he didn’t expect Ye Liangchen to be so tenacious and not back down even when he was injured.
This tenacity reminded him of his own past experiences, and he couldn’t help but feel a sense of resonance in his heart.
“In that case, I’ll help you.” Gaara calmly made a seal, and an invisible chakra wave spread out silently, enveloping the ninjas of Sound Village, silently monitoring their movements.
Ye Liangchen’s fists rained down on Tayuya, and each punch contained the powerful chakra brought by the golden finger.
As he attacked, he carefully observed Tayuya’s reaction.
Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a strange mark showing under Tayuya’s collar.
“What is this?” Ye Liangchen’s heart moved, and a bold idea came to his mind.
He pretended to accidentally pull open Tayuya’s collar, completely exposing the mark.
“Look!” he shouted, “What is this?”
All the Konoha ninjas present saw the mark and showed puzzled expressions.
“What is this? I’ve never seen it before.” “Is it some special code?” There was a lot of discussion for a while.
Tsunade’s face darkened, and she stared at the mark sharply, feeling vaguely uneasy.
“This mark… I seem to have seen it somewhere…” She tried hard to recall, but couldn’t remember it.
Tayuya’s face changed drastically when she saw the mark was discovered.
“Oh no, I’ve been discovered!” she cried in her heart and wanted to escape.
However, Ye Liangchen was well prepared. He used a body-flash technique to stand in front of Tayuya with a playful smile on his face.
“Want to run? Not that easy!”
“Damn little devil!” Duoyouya was furious and blew the flute again. The sharp sound waves attacked Ye Liangchen like a sharp blade.
Ye Liangchen was not in a hurry. He formed seals with his hands and used his special skills.
“Thousand Years of Killing!”
“Ah——” Tayouya screamed, fell to the ground holding his butt, and couldn’t get up for a long time.
“I let you show off! Now you know how powerful I am!” Ye Liangchen said with a proud smile.
When the ninjas of Konoha Village saw this scene, they came to their senses and began to observe the movements around them vigilantly.
“It seems that the people from Sound Village have bad intentions this time…” Tsunade said in a deep voice, “Send someone to investigate the origin of this mark immediately!”
Ye Liangchen watched all this and felt secretly proud.
“Hehe, it looks like my plan worked!” He thought to himself, “Now, the conspiracy of the Sound Village will be exposed!”
“Wait…” Gaara suddenly said, “I’m afraid things are not that simple…”
040. Come on, let’s hurt each other (old version)
Tayouya covered his butt that was destroyed by the Thousand Years of Killing, and was so angry that he no longer cared about his image and blew the flute in his hand frantically.
The sharp and piercing sound waves were like countless invisible blades, attacking Ye Liangchen in an overwhelming manner.
The air seemed to be distorted by the sound waves, making a teeth-grinding buzzing sound.
Ye Liangchen only felt a sharp pain in his eardrum and on the surface of his skin, as if he was being pricked by countless needles. He cried out in his heart, “Oh my god, this woman is cheating!”
Faced with such a fierce attack, Ye Liangchen took a deep breath, but his eyes became more determined.
He knew that he could not retreat at this moment and had to withstand the pressure and find an opportunity to fight back.
“Come on, let’s hurt each other!” Ye Liangchen encouraged himself in his heart while nimbly dodging the sonic attack.
At this moment, a powerful breath came from behind. Ye Liangchen’s heart trembled, “A sneak attack from behind, so damn insidious.” Without thinking, he lowered his body and did a beautiful backflip to avoid the heavy blow.
Looking back, he saw that it was Jirobo who he had knocked down before. He was now as energized as if he had been injected with chicken blood. His eyes were red, his muscles were swollen, and he was waving his huge fist at him again.
“Wow, he’s even wearing a resurrection armor?” Ye Liangchen complained in his heart.
He did not panic because he had long expected that the guys from Sound Village would never give up so easily. After all, it was a classic plot for the villain to die because of talking too much.
“I dodge! I evade! I jump again!” Ye Liangchen was like a loach, flexibly moving through Jirobou’s attacks, making Jirobou’s fists miss again and again.
Jirobo’s attack made the ground full of potholes and flying stone chips, which frightened the surrounding ninjas.
“What a fast movement!”
“How could Ye Liangchen dodge such a powerful attack?”
“As expected of the King of Scrolls, this is too strong!”
The ninjas of Konoha exclaimed in amazement. They had not expected that a Genin could be so powerful.
After dodging several attacks, Ye Liangchen focused his eyes, seized the gap in Jirobo’s attack, accelerated his body suddenly, and rushed in front of Jirobo like an arrow.
He gathered chakra in both hands and punched Jirobo hard on the chin.
With a dull thud, Jirobo’s huge body fell to the ground again, splashing a cloud of dust. He, who was so aggressive just now, was now like a deflated ball, unable to move.
Seeing this scene, the surrounding ninjas exclaimed again, and the atmosphere on the scene reached its climax, tense and exciting.
Gaara, however, frowned and looked at the situation on the field thoughtfully.
“Things seem to be far more complicated than I imagined…” he muttered to himself.
Ye Liangchen stood up slowly, looking at Tayuya and Jirobo with cold eyes.
He slowly raised his hands, and the air around him seemed to freeze…
“Rasengan Shuriken!” Ye Liangchen shouted, and the golden chakra in his hands spun at high speed, forming a dazzling ball of light. The surrounding air made a sharp whistling sound, as if it was about to be torn apart.
This move is not an ordinary Rasengan, but an ultimate Rasengan Shuriken infused with all of Ye Liangchen’s chakra!
Tayuya’s face changed drastically. She felt the threat of death from this powerful chakra.
She played the flute desperately, trying to use sound waves to resist this horrific attack, but it was all in vain.
With a deafening bang, the golden ball of light instantly swallowed up Tayuya’s sound waves and knocked her away like a whirlwind.
Tayouya fell heavily to the ground, dust flying everywhere. She struggled to get up, but found that she was powerless all over. There was a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth, and she looked in a miserable state.
The duel arena was completely silent, and everyone was shocked by this astonishing scene.
A moment later, thunderous cheers broke out, like a tsunami.
“Ye Liangchen! Ye Liangchen! Ye Liangchen!”
The audience was cheering Ye Liangchen’s name crazily. They had never seen such an exciting battle and such a powerful Genin.
Ye Liangchen stood majestically in the center of the duel arena, with golden chakra surrounding him, like a god descending from heaven.
He enjoyed the joy of victory, felt the admiration of the crowd, and his heart was filled with lofty ambitions.
At this moment, a red figure rushed over quickly and threw himself into his arms.
“Liangchen, you are awesome!”
It’s sunset red!
She hugged Ye Liangchen tightly, her eyes full of love and admiration.
She ignored everyone’s gaze and expressed her love for Ye Liangchen to her heart’s content.
Ye Liangchen’s face flushed slightly. He gently patted Xirihong’s shoulder, feeling the soft touch in his arms.
The air around is filled with a sweet and ambiguous atmosphere, which makes people feel envious.
Suddenly, a cold voice broke the warm atmosphere.
“Congratulations, Ye Liangchen. However, the real battle has just begun…”
Ye Liangchen shook his bangs in a casual manner, with a confident smile on the corner of his mouth.
“Brothers, this move by Otogakure is actually a huge conspiracy!” He announced loudly, his voice so loud that it spread throughout the entire duel arena.
“Conspiracy? What conspiracy?”
“What is King Juan doing now?”
There was a lot of discussion below, and curiosity was completely aroused.
Ye Liangchen cleared his throat and continued, “They are deliberately provoking us, in fact, they want to find out the strength of our Konoha, so that Orochimaru, the old snake, can come up with a bigger conspiracy!”
“Fuck, this is terrifying when you think about it!”
“I see. I was wondering why they were so arrogant!”
“Luckily we have the King of Rolls, otherwise we would have been kept in the dark!”
The ninjas of Konoha suddenly realized and looked at Ye Liangchen with admiration.
Even the elder of Konoha Village, who had been questioning Ye Liangchen before, blushed at this moment and had to admit that this kid was indeed quite capable.
He walked up to Ye Liangchen and patted him on the shoulder: “Young man, that’s right. I wronged you before.”
Tsunade nodded with satisfaction: “Ye Liangchen, you did a great job, Konoha is proud of you!”
Ye Liangchen stood in the center of the duel arena, bathing in the praise and admiration of the crowd, feeling secretly happy: “Hehe, it feels really good to show off.”
However, just as he was enjoying the glory of victory, a sharp pain suddenly came from his body.
He covered his chest and his face turned pale in an instant.
“Liangchen, what’s wrong with you?” Xirihong noticed that something was wrong with him and asked anxiously.
“It’s okay, just a minor injury…” Ye Liangchen endured the pain and forced a smile.
But the next second, his eyes went dark and he fell straight down.
“Liangchen!” Xi Rihong exclaimed and hurriedly supported him.
“Quick, send to the medical room!” Tsunade gave the order immediately upon seeing the situation.
On the way to the medical room, Ye Liangchen felt his consciousness becoming increasingly blurred. He heard Xi Rihong’s anxious call in his ears, but he was unable to respond.
“Doctor, how is he?” Xi Rihong tightly grasped the doctor’s hand.
The doctor shook his head solemnly: “His internal organs were injured by the sound wave ninjutsu, the situation is not optimistic…”
Xihihong’s heart sank suddenly, as if it was tightly grasped by an invisible big hand, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
She held Ye Liangchen’s hand tightly and prayed silently in her heart: “Liangchen, you must be okay…”
“His injuries, I’m afraid…” The doctor hesitated and his eyes fell on Ye Liangchen’s tightly closed eyes.
“Will it affect his future ninja career?” A deep voice sounded behind Kurenai Yuhi.
Kurenai Yuhi turned around suddenly and saw Tsunade standing there with a serious face.
The doctor didn’t answer, but just slowly lowered his head.
The room was terribly quiet…
041. Buy two, get two free? (Old version)
The smell of disinfectant was extremely pungent. Ye Liangchen wrinkled his nose and felt like he was soaked in formalin.
My whole body ached, especially my chest, which felt like it had been run over by a truck, and every breath was filled with burning pain.
He tried to move his fingers, hiss—it felt so sour and pleasant!
Staring at the pale ceiling, Ye Liangchen’s mind was full of the fierce battle with the Sound Ninja.
Tayuya’s magical flute sound that pierces your brain, Jirobo’s mountain-like figure…
Something is wrong!
Where are the four Sound Ninjas?
Why are there only two of them?
Could it be that the group purchase discount and buy two get two free promotion hasn’t started yet?
Also, these two guys were too ruthless, every move they made was aimed at taking his life.
Even if he is gifted and his normal attacks increase his chakra, he still can’t withstand this free attack.
Ye Liangchen’s intuition told him that the actions of the Sound Village this time were definitely not as simple as they seemed.
Just sending two cannon fodders to get killed?
When did Orochimaru become so kind?
I wonder if he is planning some big move?
We have to get up and investigate!
If Orochimaru were to do something weird, wouldn’t Konoha be in big trouble?
By that time, he has finally traveled through time and space, but before he has the chance to experience the joy of being a Hokage, he will be reborn again?
Thinking of this, Ye Liangchen clenched his teeth and tried to prop himself up.
As a result, as soon as he moved, he felt a sharp pain in his chest, and he fell back onto the bed with a scream.
Damn it! This body is so disappointing!
Ye Liangchen pounded the bed hard and scratched his hair in annoyance.
He felt like a wild animal trapped in a cage, unable to use any strength and could only watch the danger approach.
No! I can’t just lie there like this!
Ye Liangchen took a deep breath and tried to get up again.
This time, he moved his body carefully, little by little, and finally, he succeeded in sitting up.
“Someone! Where’s my kunai?!”
Ye Liangchen, this kid is really a loach, so slippery!
Xiurihong looked at the empty bed, feeling both angry and amused.
He’s obviously injured so badly, yet he’s still restless!
The doctor repeatedly told him to rest, but he agreed better than anyone else and then disappeared without a trace.
If Lady Tsunade knew about this, she would definitely skin him alive, right?
But she was worried about him.
Those two Sound Ninjas were very ruthless in their attacks. The injuries on Ye Liangchen’s body were no joke.
No, we have to find him quickly!
At this time, Ye Liangchen had already changed into a rustic villager’s outfit and was blending in with the bustling crowd, like a cat ready to steal some fish.
He looked around furtively, his eyes as sharp as X-rays, as if he wanted to dig out the ancestors of every passerby.
“Hey, have you heard? There seems to be some unrest in the village lately!”
“That’s right! A few days ago, a Sound Ninja sneaked in! It was really scary!”
“Shh! Keep your voice down! Walls may have ears!”
Not a single word of the whispering around escaped Ye Liangchen’s ears.
He keenly caught the word “Sound Ninja” and alarm bells rang in his heart.
It seems that his intuition was correct, and the Sound Village did have a backup plan!
Suddenly, a sneaky figure caught Ye Liangchen’s attention.
The man was wearing a black cloak and wrapped himself tightly. It was obvious that he was not a good person.
Moreover, his eyes were wandering and he looked around from time to time, and it seemed like he was passing on information.
“Great! I found you!” Ye Liangchen curled his lips and followed quietly.
The spy seemed to sense the danger and suddenly quickened his pace and turned into a remote alley.
Ye Liangchen chased after him relentlessly, thinking to himself: You little brat, are you trying to stalk me?
You are still young!
The spy turned around suddenly, and a kunai appeared in his hand, flashing with cold light, pointing directly at Ye Liangchen’s throat.
“Who are you? Why are you following me?”
Ye Liangchen sneered: “Where did you come from, you little gangster? You’re sneaking around, and you don’t look like a good guy at first glance!” Before he finished speaking, he dodged the attack, covering his chest and hissing.
Damn it!
The wound was torn!
The spy’s ninjutsu is tricky and bizarre, and every move is deadly.
Ye Liangchen endured the pain, dodging while looking for opportunities to counterattack.
The surrounding stalls were overturned, the goods were scattered all over the ground, and the crowd screamed and fled in all directions.
“Oh, is that all you can do?” Ye Liangchen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
“You…” Before the spy could finish his words, he felt a strong chakra rushing towards him…
The chakra in Ye Liangchen’s body surged wildly, and a powerful force gushed out from his palm, blocking the spy’s fatal blow.
“That’s it? You underestimate me too much!” Ye Liangchen raised the corner of his mouth and revealed an arrogant smile.
The spy was horrified. This guy was obviously seriously injured, so how could he still have such strong chakra?
He watched Ye Liangchen rushing towards him like a tiger descending from a mountain, unstoppable.
“Shit! This guy is cheating!” The spy cursed in his heart and hurriedly defended himself.
However, Ye Liangchen’s attacks were fast and fierce, and each move hit the vital points directly, leaving him no chance to breathe.
A series of attacks poured down like a rainstorm, and the spy was beaten back step by step. His face was bruised and swollen, stars were in his eyes, and his heart was filled with fear.
He could never have imagined that a seriously injured Genin could be so powerful. He was simply a monster!
Ye Liangchen became more and more courageous as the fight went on. Each of his punches carried the force of thunder and lightning. The spy was beaten so badly that he had no power to fight back. He could only run away in fear, struggling to hold on.
His eyes were full of fear, as if he saw a Shura from hell.
“With just this little ability, you dare to come and act wild in Konoha?” Ye Liangchen sneered and punched the spy hard in the chest, knocking him away. He fell heavily to the ground and couldn’t get up for a long time.
“Ye Liangchen!”
An anxious cry was heard from a distance. Ye Liangchen turned around and saw Xirihong running towards him with worry in her eyes.
“Why did you run out? Your injury hasn’t healed yet!” Xirihong ran to Ye Liangchen and looked him up and down. There was blame in her tone, but she couldn’t hide her concern.
Seeing that Ye Liangchen was fine, her eyes were filled with admiration again. This boy is so strong!
Ye Liangchen scratched his head a little embarrassedly: “Hey, I’m just worried…”
He searched the unconscious spy and found a crumpled piece of paper with some strange symbols written on it.
Ye Liangchen looked carefully and found that this was actually a map of the temporary base of the Sound Village!
“It seems that the conspiracy of Sound Village is not over yet…” Ye Liangchen clenched his fists, with a flash of determination in his eyes, “I must go to this place!”
Xihihong looked at him worriedly: “But your injury…”
“It’s okay, I can handle it!” Ye Liangchen patted his chest.
He looked up into the distance, which was the direction of the temporary base of Sound Village.
“Wait for me, I’m coming!”
042. Solitary Exploration (Old Version)
Ye Liangchen followed the instructions on the map and came to the outskirts of the temporary base in Sound Village.
This place is so desolate that there is not even a ghost to be seen. There are only a few crooked trees shivering in the night wind, just like a scene from a horror movie.
The moonlight sprinkled on Ye Liangchen, giving him a layer of silver light, making him look particularly…
The short one.
Well, although his height is a disadvantage, it does not prevent him from exuding the spirit of a lone hero.
He took a deep breath, and the air was filled with a faint smell of blood mixed with an unknown herbal scent, which made him feel a little nauseous.
“Ugh… What the hell is this place? It smells even worse than Kakashi’s doghouse!” He complained in a low voice, then crouched down and scurried into the woods outside the stronghold like a nimble monkey.
The stronghold was heavily guarded, and the high walls were filled with patrolling Sound Ninjas, each of them looking ferocious and fierce, like door gods.
Ye Liangchen hid behind a tree, thinking secretly in his heart: “With so many people, it will not work to force our way in. We have to use our wits!” His eyes rolled and a plan came to his mind.
“Hehe, luckily I carry the ancestral smoke with me!” Ye Liangchen took out an inconspicuous little ball from the ninja tool bag, squeezed it hard, and a light purple smoke instantly spread out.
Taking advantage of the cover of smoke, Ye Liangchen was as light as a swallow. With a few leaps, he climbed over the wall and successfully sneaked into the stronghold.
As soon as he landed, Ye Liangchen felt his feet go empty. “Oh my god, what’s going on!” Before he could react, countless hidden weapons whizzed at him from all directions, as dense as rain.
“Oh my god! This is too insidious!” Ye Liangchen complained while dodging frantically.
Despite his agility, his arms were still grazed by several hidden weapons.
“Hiss… It hurts, it hurts!” Ye Liangchen took a breath and felt his arm burning.
He touched the wound and fortunately, it was just a skin injury and not a serious problem.
“This is fate, it always likes to play jokes on me!” He shook his head with a wry smile, but his eyes became more determined.
“You think you can stop me with this little trick? No way!”
He wiped the cold sweat from his face and continued to grope his way deeper into the stronghold.
Suddenly, he heard a faint sound of footsteps coming from the front…
“Who is it?!”
Ye Liangchen held his breath and listened attentively.
The footsteps were getting closer, accompanied by the crisp sound of metal colliding.
“From the sound, it seems like… a patrol?” He thought to himself, “This is going to be difficult!”
Before he could finish his words, two ninjas from the Sound Village appeared at the corner, holding shiny kunai in their hands, and it was obvious that they were not good people.
They obviously also noticed Ye Liangchen and immediately stopped in vigilance.
“Who is it?!” one of the Otonin shouted, “What are you doing sneaking around?!”
“Uh… I was just passing by and took a look.” Ye Liangchen laughed and tried to get away with it.
“Passing by? This is the secret base of the Sound Village. No outsiders are allowed to enter!” Another Sound Ninja said in a cold tone, “I think you are a spy from Konoha!”
“Don’t talk nonsense, I’m an honest citizen!” Ye Liangchen waved his hands quickly, “I was really just passing by…”
“Stop talking nonsense!” The two Sound Ninjas didn’t even listen to his explanation and rushed up waving kunai.
“Oh, it seems like we have no choice but to take action!” Ye Liangchen sighed helplessly, and dodged their attack.
“You have good skills!” One of the Sound Ninjas sneered, “Unfortunately, you can’t escape today!”
As he finished his words, more Sound Ninjas rushed out from all directions and surrounded Ye Liangchen.
They held various weapons in their hands and had fierce looks in their eyes, as if they wanted to eat Ye Liangchen alive.
“Oh my goodness, this is going to be a group fight!” Ye Liangchen couldn’t help but complain, “It’s really hard for me!”
The Sound Ninjas launched their attacks without any hesitation.
Various ninjutsu, kunai, and shurikens attacked Ye Liangchen like a rainstorm.
“Oh my god! This is too cruel!” Ye Liangchen dodged left and right, jumped up and down, like a nimble monkey, struggling to avoid the attacks in the encirclement.
Although he was agile, he was outnumbered and was scratched on the arms and thighs by several kunai.
“Hiss… It hurts, it hurts!” Ye Liangchen took a breath and felt a burning sensation in the wound.
He gritted his teeth and endured the pain. “If the tiger doesn’t show its might, you really think I’m a sick cat!”
He suddenly put his hands together, mobilized the large amount of chakra accumulated in his body, and performed a new combination of ninjutsu.
I saw him quickly forming seals with his hands, muttering something, and a powerful energy wave emanated from him.
“What is this?!” The Sound Ninjas surrounding him were stunned. They had never seen such a strange ninjutsu.
The next second, Ye Liangchen suddenly opened his eyes and shouted: “Rasengan Shuriken·Chidori Style!”
A dazzling light flashed, and a powerful energy shock wave swept out, blowing the surrounding Sound Ninjas away.
“Ah…” Screams rang out one after another, and the Sound Ninjas fell to the ground one after another.
Ye Liangchen took advantage of the situation to break through, and disappeared into the night with a few leaps.
“This kid…” Gaara, who was hiding in the dark and observing, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, “Interesting…”
Gaara hid in the dark, like a hunting eagle, his sharp eyes always locked on Ye Liangchen’s figure.
This kid is quite interesting…
He pondered in his heart and tapped the tree trunk with his fingers. A message was transmitted silently.
In Konoha Village, it’s time for someone to take action.
At the same time, Ye Liangchen was moving around in the stronghold like a mole.
The base of the Sound Village was like a maze, with twists and turns, and he almost got dizzy.
“Are these guys born in the Year of the Rat?” He complained while searching carefully for clues.
His hard work paid off, and he finally found the key evidence in a hidden room – a scroll filled with words.
“Bingo! Looks like I’m going to make a fortune this time!” He delighted, carefully hid the scroll, and prepared to run away.
However, things don’t always go as planned.
As soon as he turned around, he heard hurried footsteps.
“Oh no! Someone’s coming again!” He cursed inwardly and quickly hid in the shadows.
A group of Otogakure ninjas rushed in aggressively, each of them looked ferocious and as if they wanted to eat people.
“Search! Search thoroughly! Don’t let go of even a fly!” the leading ninja shouted loudly.
Ye Liangchen cursed in his heart: “Damn, these guys have dog noses, right? They found it so quickly?” There’s no way to hide, so let’s do it!
He took a deep breath and emerged from the shadows.
“Brothers, long time no see!” He greeted them with a smile, but secretly condensed chakra in his hands.
“Ye Liangchen?!” The Sound Ninjas obviously recognized him. They gritted their teeth and wished they could eat him alive.
“Boy, you actually dare to come here! Today I will make sure you never come back!”
“Hey, hey, don’t be so excited,” Ye Liangchen said as he dodged their attacks, “We all come here to make a living, why do we have to fight and kill each other?”
“Stop talking nonsense!” The Sound Ninjas didn’t listen to his explanation at all. They used all kinds of ninjutsu, kunai, and shurikens at him as if they were free.
Ye Liangchen was caught in a dilemma and soon got injured.
“Hiss… It hurts! These guys are so cruel!” He gritted his teeth, endured the pain, and began to feel exhausted.
Just when he thought he was going to be in trouble, he suddenly discovered that the leading ninja had revealed a flaw.
The opportunity has come!
His eyes lit up, and he launched an attack suddenly, blasting forward with a move “Rasengan Shuriken: Chidori Style”.
The leading ninja was unable to dodge and was knocked flying, falling heavily to the ground, his life or death unknown.
The other Sound Ninjas became a little timid when they saw this.
They looked at each other, then took a few steps back silently.
Seeing this, Ye Liangchen did not pursue the victory, because he knew that he was almost reaching his limit.
He breathed heavily and glanced coldly at the remaining Sound-nin.
“I’ll let you go today. If you dare to mess with me next time, you won’t be so lucky!”
After saying that, he turned and left, his figure disappearing into the night.
However, he knew that greater danger was still to come…
“It seems that I can only use that one trick…” Ye Liangchen whispered to himself, with a strange chakra jumping at his fingertips.
043. The conspiracy is shattered (old version)
Ye Liangchen dragged his tired body through the dim temporary base of Sound Village.
The air was filled with the smell of blood, and the mottled bloodstains on the walls looked particularly hideous under the dim firelight.
The fierce battle just now left him with several wounds on his body, but he didn’t care about the pain. He knew he had to bring the evidence back to Konoha as soon as possible.
This thing is ironclad evidence that the Sound Village is colluding with the Sand Village and intends to overthrow Konoha!
If it falls into the hands of the enemy, the consequences will be disastrous.
He carefully put the scroll into his arms and glanced around vigilantly.
This damn place is so eerie and I always feel like there is something hiding in the dark staring at me.
“Tram, tramp, tramp…” A heavy sound of footsteps came from afar, breaking the silence of the cave.
Ye Liangchen’s heart trembled, and he quickly held his breath and hid behind a huge stone pillar.
A tall figure appeared in his sight, it was the leader of Sound Village.
This guy had a gloomy face and his hawk-like eyes scanned the surroundings, as if he could see through everything.
“Ye Liangchen, I know you are here!” The leader’s voice was low and full of majesty, “Hand over what you stole obediently, and I can give you a quick death!”
Ye Liangchen cursed in his heart, “old fox”, he knew he was exposed.
He took a deep breath and walked out from behind the stone pillar with a cynical smile on his face.
“Hey, isn’t this the famous leader of the Sound Village? Why, you came to greet me in person?”
The leader snorted coldly, “Stop talking nonsense! Do you think you can escape from me?”
Before he finished his words, the leader flashed in front of Ye Liangchen and threw a heavy punch straight to his face.
Ye Liangchen was prepared. He dodged the attack by leaning sideways and punched the leader in the abdomen with his backhand.
“That’s all?” Ye Liangchen challenged, “I thought you were so powerful!”
The leader roared, his chakra surged, and his momentum was astonishing.
“Boy, you have succeeded in irritating me!” He made seals with his hands and muttered something.
Ye Liangchen didn’t dare to be careless, he knew that this guy was going to use his ultimate move.
He quickly mobilized his chakra, preparing for the next attack.
“Boy, prepare to die!” The leader’s ninjutsu was about to be completed, and a powerful energy wave spread around.
“Want me to die? You’re still young!” Ye Liangchen raised the corner of his mouth slightly, “Look at me, Super God·Rasengan Shuriken·Chidori Style·Enhanced Version!”
The leader’s ninjutsu came like a storm, with wind blades, water bullets, earth spikes, and all kinds of elements intertwined, as if to tear Ye Liangchen into pieces.
Ye Liangchen dodged left and right, as agile as a loach, but he was still scratched from time to time, with several bloody marks on his body, which was burning with pain.
He gritted his teeth and endured it, thinking to himself: “This old guy has many skills. It seems that I have to show my real ability.”
He dodged while observing his surroundings.
Stone pillars collapsed, rubble flew everywhere, the ground cracked, and the entire stronghold was in a mess due to the fight between the two of them.
“Hmph, this is a good opportunity to make use of it!” He was secretly delighted.
He suddenly slid to avoid a wind blade, picked up a huge piece of gravel and threw it at the leader.
“Take my ‘Flying Fairy’!”
The leader sneered disdainfully and smashed the rubble into pieces with a wave of his hand.
“A trifle!”
But Ye Liangchen’s attack was not over yet. He had already taken advantage of the moment when the gravel was flying around to get behind the leader and kicked him in the back of the head with a swift whip kick.
“I’ll give you a sneak attack from behind!”
The leader reacted very quickly, turned around and blocked the attack with his arm, but the powerful impact still made his body shake.
He was shocked. How could this kid be so powerful?
Of course Ye Liangchen would not miss this opportunity. He immediately jumped away and quickly formed seals with his hands.
“Next, I’ll show you my ‘ultimate move’!”
The chakra in his body surged wildly, and it felt like a floodgate was opened.
He gathered all his strength in his hands. A ball of dazzling light condensed in his palms. The powerful energy fluctuations caused the surrounding air to distort.
“Super God·Rasengan Shuriken·Chidori Style·Enhanced Version! Explode for me!”
A huge shuriken made up of countless energy threads, with thunderous power, smashed towards the leader fiercely.
The leader felt the energy that was enough to destroy everything, and his face finally changed. He quickly mobilized the chakra in his body, trying to resist the attack.
The huge explosion was deafening, and the entire stronghold shook violently.
The shock wave spread out, shattering all the surrounding rocks into powder.
When the dust cleared, the leader was seen lying on the ground in a mess, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. “You…you actually…”
Ye Liangchen clapped his hands, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a confident smile.
“How’s it going? My ultimate move is pretty good, right? Now, it’s my turn to fight back!”
He slowly walked towards the leader, his eyes full of amusement. At this moment, a voice suddenly came from a distance: “Ye Liangchen, are you okay?”
“Hongdou, you’re here just in time!” Ye Liangchen grinned, revealing his white teeth, which looked particularly dazzling on the dusty battlefield.
Xiurihong ran over quickly, her beautiful eyes full of worry and love, and grabbed Ye Liangchen’s arm, “Are you hurt? I was scared to death!” Her soft little hand trembled slightly, and Ye Liangchen could feel the warmth of her palm, and a warm current surged into his heart.
He held Xi Rihong’s hand with his backhand and gave her a reassuring look, “Don’t worry, I’m fine. These few minions are not enough to fill my teeth!” His tone was relaxed, as if what he had just experienced was not a life-and-death fight, but a game.
Xihihong looked at his confident appearance, her eyes full of admiring little stars.
This damn sense of security!
Feeling Hongdou’s burning gaze, Ye Liangchen felt full of strength, as if a great force was about to burst out from his body!
He turned his head to look at the dying leader of the Sound Village, with an evil smile on his lips.
“We were having a great time fighting just now, but I didn’t expect you to lose control. What a bummer!” He moved his wrists, making a “clicking” sound that made the leader’s scalp tingle.
“You… don’t be so complacent! I… I will come back!” the leader said with gritted teeth.
“Come back? Remember to bring some powerful guys next time, otherwise I won’t be interested!” Ye Liangchen smiled contemptuously, stepped on the leader’s chest and crushed it hard.
“With your limited strength, you still want to fight me? Go home and raise pigs!”
The conspiracy of Sound Village was completely exposed, and Ye Liangchen returned to Konoha Village with hard evidence and victory.
When the news spread, the whole village was in an uproar!
The villagers lined the streets to welcome him, the cheers were deafening, and flowers and applause came like a tide.
Ye Liangchen felt like he was walking on the Avenue of Stars, radiating the aura of a superstar!
The elders also changed their previous doubts and gave him a thumbs up, with their old faces smiling like chrysanthemums.
“Ye Liangchen, you are truly the pride of Konoha!”
Tsunade praised him highly, and with a wave of her hand, she promoted him two levels and rewarded him with a large bonus.
“Ye Liangchen, you did a great job! The future of Konoha depends on you!”
Ye Liangchen stood in the center of the crowd, enjoying everyone’s cheers and praises, his heart filled with pride and a sense of accomplishment.
He turned to look at Xi Ri Hong, their eyes met, and everything was said without words.
“Next, it’s time to celebrate!” Ye Liangchen thought to himself.
Suddenly, an Anbu ninja appeared in front of him, knelt on one knee, and said in a hurried tone, “Master Ye Liangchen, Master Hokage has an urgent mission…”
044. Sound Ninja Challenge (Old Version)
Ye Liangchen had just finished enjoying the treatment like a hero and hadn’t even sat down when he heard a commotion coming from the direction of the village entrance.
His eyes, which were originally smiling, suddenly became as sharp as a knife and looked straight towards the village entrance.
An aura mixed with vigilance and excitement permeated around him, as if he was a beast ready to pounce on its prey at any time.
“Again?” Ye Liangchen raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a bloodthirsty smile, “It seems that they didn’t take the lesson from last time to heart at all.”
The surrounding villagers also became nervous in an instant. The Konoha Village, which was filled with a joyful atmosphere just now, seemed to be shrouded in a shadow. The air was filled with a depressing atmosphere that made people feel breathless.
“These guys are really haunting!”
“Do they want to do it again?”
“Didn’t you get beaten to a pulp last time? How dare you come here again?”
The villagers were talking about it, with worry written all over their faces.
Ye Liangchen didn’t care. He was no longer the rookie who had just traveled through time and knew nothing.
“This time, I’ll let them know why the flowers are so red!” Ye Liangchen moved his wrists, and the joints made crackling sounds, as if announcing the boiling fighting spirit in his body.
I saw a figure slowly walking into the village. He was wearing the uniform of Sound Village, with a cold smile on his lips and his eyes full of provocation.
As soon as this person appeared, he immediately attracted everyone’s attention.
“Humph, the loser from last time, you dare to come and die?” The Sound Ninja said arrogantly, his voice was a little hoarse, and it sounded very uncomfortable, “This time, I will let you Konoha know who is the real strong one!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly formed seals with his hands, and a strange chakra fluctuation spread out instantly.
The originally bustling street instantly turned into a desolate cemetery. Countless wronged souls were floating around, emitting shrill wails, which was creepy.
“Oh my god, what the hell is this? A scene from a horror movie?” Ye Liangchen was shocked, but quickly forced himself to calm down. This level of illusion could only scare ordinary people.
He knew that the most important thing now was to stay awake and not be fooled by the illusion.
The surrounding villagers also began to scream, and many were so frightened that they collapsed on the ground, trembling.
Xiurihong clenched her fists tightly, her face full of worry, but she was unable to go forward to help, so she could only look at Ye Liangchen anxiously.
Gaara stood in the crowd with his arms folded, expressionless, silently observing the changes on the field, with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
At this moment, Ye Liangchen felt as if he was pulled into an endless nightmare. All kinds of horrific scenes followed one after another, as if they wanted to devour him completely.
But he did not give up, for he knew very well that it was just an illusion, and as long as he stayed awake, he would be able to find a way to break it.
“You want to scare me with this little trick? You’re too naive!” Ye Liangchen gritted his teeth and forced himself to ignore the horrific scene around him. His mind began to work frantically.
Suddenly, he felt a powerful force surging in his body…
Ye Liangchen felt the chakra in his body gushing out like a volcanic eruption. He took a deep breath and instantly concentrated all the chakra in his body in his dantian. A powerful force burst out from his body, and the air around him seemed to be torn apart, forming circles of visible waves.
“Hmph, you want to scare me with this little trick? You’re too naive!” Ye Liangchen gritted his teeth, jumped up suddenly, and his figure cut through the illusory coffin lid like lightning, and reappeared in the real Konoha Village.
The surrounding scene returned to normal in an instant. The villagers got up from the ground in shock and looked at Ye Liangchen with eyes full of admiration and excitement.
When the ninja from Sound Village saw that the illusion was broken, his face changed drastically. He quickly stepped back a few steps, quickly formed seals with his hands, and muttered to himself: “How is this possible? This illusion was taught to me by my master. Could it be that he…” Before he could finish his thought, Ye Liangchen appeared in front of him and punched out quickly. The wind from his fist was accompanied by a slight vibration, as if to tear the air apart.
“This time, you asked for it!” Ye Liangchen’s fist smashed hard into the chest of the Otogakure ninja. The Otogakure ninja dodged in panic but was still hit by Ye Liangchen’s fist. He flew backwards and hit a tree behind him with a loud bang.
The crowd around burst into cheers, and Ye Liangchen’s momentum instantly reached its peak.
The Otogakure ninja got up from the ground in a mess, with a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, but he did not give up.
He formed seals with his hands again and uttered a string of unfamiliar spells. A strange chakra light shot out from his hands and instantly turned into countless tiny blades, attacking Ye Liangchen.
Ye Liangchen dodged flexibly, but the ninjutsu of the Sound Village ninjas was strange and changeable, and the blades seemed to be everywhere, forcing him to dodge everywhere, looking a little embarrassed for a moment.
Dust was flying all around, and the villagers of Konoha Village were so nervous that they held their breath and didn’t even dare to breathe.
Kurenai Yuhi clenched her fists tightly, her eyes revealing worry, while Gaara remained expressionless, watching everything quietly, with a hint of depth in his eyes.
Just when everyone thought Ye Liangchen would continue to dodge, he suddenly stopped and gave a meaningful smile.
“Reckless man! You’re looking for death!” The Sound Ninja sneered, thinking that Ye Liangchen was seeking his own death.
But how could he know that Ye Liangchen’s operation was called “moving and pulling, extreme counterattack”!
Ye Liangchen’s figure was seen moving between the blades like a ghost, as if he was strolling in the garden, and from time to time he would make a “snake-skin movement”, which made the Sound Ninja’s scalp tingle.
Xi Rihong’s heart was in her throat. This thrilling scene was more tense than any mission she had ever performed.
She seemed to be able to feel the hot breath emanating from Ye Liangchen, mixed with sweat and the passion of fighting, making her cheeks slightly hot.
The air around them also became sticky, filled with an ambiguous sense of tension.
Ye Liangchen is not the “Sixth Brother” who only knows how to hide. What he is doing is called “strategic retreat, waiting for the right opportunity to act”!
Just when the Sound Ninja thought he had victory in his grasp, Ye Liangchen suddenly jumped up, as fast as a flash of lightning, and punched out, hitting the Sound Ninja right in the face.
There was a crisp “crack” sound, accompanied by the Otoninin’s pig-killing scream, and blood gushing out of his nose, which was a very vivid picture.
“That’s it? You’re the elite of the Sound Village? I think you’re from the Sound-Idiot Village!” Ye Liangchen used his taunting skills to the maximum, dealing damage like crazy while not forgetting to deal “mental damage”.
The Sound Ninja was beaten so badly that he had no power to fight back and could only passively take the beating, like a human sandbag.
Ye Liangchen used both his fists and feet, and every move was fatal. Every blow was accompanied by a “clang clang” special effect sound, as if providing the BGM for the battle.
The Sound Ninja was beaten until stars appeared in his eyes and foam came out of his mouth. Finally, with a “bang”, he fell heavily to the ground like a dead dog.
When the dust settled, Ye Liangchen stood proudly, like a god descending from heaven, exuding a kingly and domineering aura.
He glanced at the Otonin ninja lying on the ground with contempt and sneered: “Next time you come, remember to call your master, otherwise you won’t be enough for me to fight!”
He looked around, taking in the villagers’ admiring gazes, and felt secretly happy: “As expected of me, Ye Liangchen, the King of Konoha!”
However, just as everyone was cheering, Ye Liangchen suddenly felt a strange chakra fluctuation. He turned his head sharply and looked towards the entrance of the village, his eyes instantly becoming fierce…
045. The Snake Appears (Old Version)
“That’s it? You’re the elite of the Sound Village? I think you’re from the Sound-Idiot Village!” Ye Liangchen’s mouth cannon output was maxed out, and a set of “Eighteen Consecutive Quality Attacks” directly stunned the Sound Ninja.
The punches and kicks were so powerful that each strike was accompanied by a “dangdang” sound effect. If you didn’t know, you would think it was a martial arts movie.
The Sound Ninja had no power to fight back and finally fell to the ground with a “pa” like a dead dog, perfectly illustrating what it means to “die as soon as you land on the ground.”
Ye Liangchen clapped his hands, hiding his merits and fame. The cheers from the surrounding villagers almost sent him to heaven.
“As expected of me, the King of Konohagama, this operation is awesome!” Ye Liangchen’s inner thoughts were scrolling wildly, but he appeared calm on the surface, looking like a lonely master.
However, masters never let their guard down easily.
Ye Liangchen walked to the “box”, squatted down, and began the routine inspection.
“Look at what treasures this kid has on him…” He muttered to himself as he searched.
Suddenly, his fingers touched a cold metal plate, and the feel of the texture made his heart tighten.
He picked up the metal plate, took a closer look, and his pupils suddenly shrank!
It was a snake-shaped mark, cold and evil, it was the mark of Orochimaru!
“Hiss——” Ye Liangchen took a breath of cold air, and the air around him seemed to solidify, even the dust floating in the air was still.
“Orochimaru…it’s him!” This name exploded in Ye Liangchen’s mind like a thunder.
Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas of Konoha, a traitor, a mad scientist, a name that all ninjas tremble in fear.
Ye Liangchen knew what this meant. It meant that the provocation from the Sound Village was not accidental, but was manipulated by Orochimaru behind the scenes!
A chill ran from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and he felt as if he was in an ice cellar.
He had heard about how powerful and dangerous Orochimaru was.
Now, he is actually related to this legendary evil ninja, which makes him feel extremely pressured.
“What should I do? Should I report it to the Hokage immediately?” Ye Liangchen began to struggle within himself.
On the one hand, he knew that Orochimaru’s conspiracy must be exposed as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
On the other hand, he was worried that he was not capable enough and that any rash action would only alert the enemy and even endanger his own life.
He tightly grasped the snake-shaped mark in his hand, his brows furrowed with a complicated expression.
Xi Rihong had been paying attention to Ye Liangchen. She noticed that he was different and walked up to him and asked with concern, “What’s wrong, Liangchen? Did you find anything?”
Ye Liangchen raised his head and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but swallowed it back.
“I…” He just said one word and suddenly stopped.
An ominous premonition came to his mind, and he suddenly turned his head to look towards the village entrance, his eyes instantly becoming sharp.
“Hong, be careful!” He pulled Xiri Hong behind him, his voice low and rapid.
In the blink of an eye, several dark shadows appeared from the village entrance like ghosts, so fast that they could hardly be captured by the naked eye.
They were dressed in black, with strange masks on their faces, and exuded a cold murderous aura.
“Oh my god! This way of making an appearance is too childish!” Ye Liangchen couldn’t help but complain, but his hands’ movements did not slow down at all.
Without saying a word, these ninjas launched a fierce attack on Ye Liangchen.
Kunai and shurikens came like raindrops, making sharp sounds of breaking through the air, which was creepy.
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh—”
Ye Liangchen was agile and nimble, like a nimble monkey, able to maneuver freely amidst the intensive attacks.
He dodged left and right, narrowly avoiding wave after wave of attacks.
“That’s it? It’s just a tickle.” Ye Liangchen was still unforgiving in his words, but he was secretly surprised in his heart.
The attack speed and strength of these ninjas far exceed those of ordinary Genin, and they work in perfect harmony with each other, and their moves are deadly. They are obviously well-trained elites.
“Dang! Dang! Dang!”
Ye Liangchen is no pushover. He takes advantage of the gaps in dodging to continuously accumulate chakra, looking for opportunities to counterattack.
“Take this! My ‘Eighteenth Company of Quality’ is a luxuriously upgraded version!”
Ye Liangchen roared, and the accumulated chakra burst out instantly, and a powerful energy wave spread out with him as the center.
His fists were as fast as the wind, and each punch contained terrifying power, causing bursts of explosive sounds in the air.
“Boom boom boom—”
Several ninjas were caught off guard by Ye Liangchen’s attack. They flew backwards and crashed into the surrounding buildings, stirring up a cloud of dust.
“Ahem…”
Several ninjas struggled to get up, their faces full of horror.
They didn’t expect that this seemingly ordinary Konoha Genin actually possessed such powerful strength.
“Is this guy… a monster?” a ninja whispered in horror.
Ye Liangchen brushed off the dust on his body, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing an evil smile.
“We’re just getting started! The fun has just begun!”
Suddenly, a powerful chakra came from a distance, bringing with it a suffocating feeling of oppression.
“What is that?” Xi Ri Hong’s face changed and she exclaimed.
Ye Liangchen’s heart trembled, and he turned his head abruptly to look in the direction where the chakra came from, his pupils suddenly shrinking.
“Not good…” he whispered, “A stronger enemy is coming…” Gaara was not here to watch the show. He clapped his hands, and the sand in the gourd poured out like a waterfall, instantly forming a huge hand of sand, which slapped down hard on those black-clothed ninjas.
With a loud “boom”, the ground began to shake. In the smoke and dust, several ninjas were buried alive in the sand. The scene was very shocking.
“Sand waterfall funeral!” Gaara’s cold voice rang out, and the ninjas within the attack range all ran away with their heads in their hands. The scene was once very chaotic.
“Wow, Gaara’s support is very timely!” Seeing this, Ye Liangchen became spirited and no longer hid his skills. He directly activated the “King of Roll Mode” and poured out chakra as if it was free.
The sound effects of “Ding~Ding~Ding~” rang out again, and combined with Gaara’s giant hand of sand, it was simply a visual feast. If you didn’t know, you would think you were watching Konoha Village’s New Year’s Eve party.
The two men cooperated well, punching and kicking each other, and the black-clad ninjas had no power to fight back. They could only run away on the ground with their heads in their hands. The scene was very funny for a while.
Xihihong watched Ye Liangchen fighting side by side with the ninjas from other villages, her eyes sparkling with wonder and a warm feeling rising in her heart.
The surrounding villagers were even more excited and cheered for the two.
After the battle, Ye Liangchen did not rush to chase the defeated ninjas, but squatted down and carefully observed their escape route.
“It’s quite interesting. This escape route is too deliberate. Like a clue left intentionally?” He touched his chin and said thoughtfully.
After hearing this, Xi Rihong admired Ye Liangchen’s wisdom even more, and the people around him were also surprised at his careful observation.
Ye Liangchen followed the clues all the way and came to a mysterious cave hidden deep in the jungle.
The entrance to the cave was eerie, and a chill blew in one’s face, making one shudder.
“Hiss~ The yin energy here is so strong, could this be Orochimaru’s lair?” Ye Liangchen rubbed the goose bumps on his arms, feeling a little scared, but he did not back off, instead he became even more excited.
“Hehe, exciting! I’m finally going to meet the legendary Orochimaru!” He took a deep breath and stepped into the cave carefully. An even colder aura surrounded him. The depths of the cave were pitch black, like the gate to hell…
“Wait!” Ye Liangchen suddenly stopped and felt something strange.
He placed his hand on the cave wall and felt a faint vibration.
“Is there a mechanism?” He narrowed his eyes and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
“How dare you show off your skills in front of an expert?”
046. The End of the Snake’s Plot (Old Version)
Inside the cave, the darkness was as thick as ink and one could not see one’s hand in front of one’s face.
Ye Liangchen groped forward, being extremely cautious with every step.
The air was filled with the smell of dampness and decay, which made him frown.
“This taste is amazing! Orochimaru’s taste in life is really not commendable!” he complained in a low voice.
The slippery stone slabs underfoot made a “clicking” sound from time to time, indicating the existence of a mechanism.
Ye Liangchen held his breath and, relying on his super perception, carefully avoided each deadly trap.
Sometimes sharp blades fell from overhead, sometimes poisonous arrows shot out from the walls, and sometimes the ground suddenly collapsed…
This is simply a maze of death!
“Wow, the density of these mechanisms is even greater than the cow hairs outside my house!” Ye Liangchen was secretly amazed, but his hands moved in a neat and nimble manner, as a civet cat.
Deep in the cave, cold winds blew, causing the torches to flicker and cast distorted shadows, adding to the horror.
Ye Liangchen’s heartbeat was getting faster and faster, and sweat was oozing out of his palms.
“This atmosphere is just like a scene from a horror movie!” He swallowed and tried to remain calm.
Just when he was cracking a complicated gear mechanism, something strange happened!
With a “click”, before the sound of the mechanism opening completely fell, a cold voice echoed in the cave: “As expected of the King of Konoha, you can actually make it this far.”
Ye Liangchen turned around suddenly and saw a figure slowly walking out of the darkness, with pale skin, golden vertical pupils, and scarlet lips. It was Orochimaru!
“Oh my god! Orochimaru, do you have background music when you appear? You scared me!” Ye Liangchen couldn’t help but swear.
Orochimaru sneered, “You are very brave, daring to enter my lair.”
“Thank you very much. I’m just curious about your wireless network password.” Ye Liangchen said jokingly, but he was highly alert in his heart.
Orochimaru stopped talking nonsense, formed seals with his hands, and a powerful chakra wave burst out instantly.
“Prepare to die, boy!”
Ye Liangchen felt as if he was in the midst of a violent storm, with a huge pressure enveloping him.
He understood that this battle would be the most difficult one in his life!
“Come on! Let me see how powerful the legendary three ninjas are!” Ye Liangchen’s eyes were burning with a raging desire to fight, and he held a kunai tightly in his hand.
“Haha, you don’t know your own limitations.” Orochimaru raised his lips with a cruel arc…
“You will pay for your stupidity!” “You overestimate your own abilities.” Orochimaru sneered, his hands dancing like a butterfly, and the speed of hand seals was so fast that it was difficult to capture with the naked eye.
“The art of spiritual communication: the Ten Thousand Snakes Formation!”
In an instant, the ground cracked, and countless giant snakes emerged from the ground, roaring and pouncing towards Ye Liangchen.
Ye Liangchen was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He dodged the attack of the snakes with a backflip and quickly formed seals after landing.
“Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!”
A huge fireball spewed out of Ye Liangchen’s mouth, burning the giant snakes in the front into ashes.
However, the number of snakes was too large, and the power of Fire Style was limited, and it was soon overwhelmed by more giant snakes.
“Fuck, there are too many snakes! There are more than the cockroaches in my house!” Ye Liangchen complained while waving a kunai and killing the approaching giant snakes one by one.
Every time he swung a kunai, he could feel the chakra in his body increase, and his attacks became stronger and stronger.
When Orochimaru saw that Ye Liangchen could actually withstand the Ten Thousand Snakes Formation, he formed seals with his hands again.
“Earth Escape: Earth Flow Wall!”
An earth wall rose from the ground, trapping Ye Liangchen inside.
Seeing this, Ye Liangchen sneered.
“A mere trifle!” He clenched his fists and smashed the earth wall hard. With a loud “bang”, the earth wall collapsed instantly.
“This kid is quite interesting.” Orochimaru licked his lips, “Then try my special move! Immortal Technique: White Snake Technique!”
Orochimaru’s body instantly expanded and turned into a huge white snake, opening his bloody mouth and biting towards Ye Liangchen.
Ye Liangchen was not in a hurry. He dodged the attack of the white snake and noticed that there was a small scale on the belly of the white snake that was slightly different in color.
“It’s right there!” Ye Liangchen’s eyes flashed, and he concentrated all his chakra on his right fist and punched the white snake’s abdomen fiercely.
With a loud bang, the white snake let out a shrill roar, and its huge body fell heavily to the ground, turning back into Orochimaru in human form.
At this moment, Orochimaru’s face was pale and blood was oozing from the corners of his mouth.
“You…how could you possibly…”
Ye Liangchen stood there with a slight smile on his face.
“I’m sorry, but I’ve discovered your greatest weakness.” He paused, then continued, “Next, it’s time to send you on your way.”
Ye Liangchen slowly raised the kunai in his hand and pointed it at Orochimaru…
The kunai that Ye Liangchen held high stopped in the air and did not fall.
Orochimaru collapsed to the ground, looking at the seemingly ordinary Genin in front of him in horror, his heart filled with resentment and fear.
He knew that he had been defeated, completely defeated.
At this moment, a red figure rushed into the cave at a rapid speed. It was Xi Ri Hong.
She overcame all obstacles and went deep into Orochimaru’s secret base regardless of danger, just to ensure Ye Liangchen’s safety.
Seeing Ye Liangchen standing there safe and sound, and Orochimaru having fallen, she finally let go of her worries.
Her eyes were full of joy and love, she ran towards Ye Liangchen excitedly and threw herself into his arms.
“Liangchen, I’m so glad that you’re okay!” Xirihong hugged Ye Liangchen tightly, her voice choked with sobs.
Ye Liangchen patted Xi Rihong’s shoulder gently and said softly: “Don’t worry, I’m fine. I said I would come back.”
The two hugged each other tightly, and the air around them seemed to be filled with a sweet scent.
Orochimaru watched this scene.
Upon returning to Konoha Village, Ye Liangchen was welcomed like a hero.
The villagers lined the streets to welcome them with deafening cheers.
The elders’ previous doubts about him also disappeared, and were replaced by deep admiration.
Tsunade even praised him highly, calling him the future star of Konoha Village.
“Ye Liangchen, your performance this time is excellent. Konoha Village is proud of you!” Tsunade patted Ye Liangchen on the shoulder, her tone full of affirmation and encouragement.
“This is what I should do.” Ye Liangchen smiled modestly.
Just as Ye Liangchen was immersed in the joy of victory, an unexpected news broke the tranquility of Konoha Village.
The messenger from the Hidden Mist Village hurried over, anxiously asking for help from the Konoha Village.
“Hokage, the Hidden Mist Village is facing an unprecedented crisis. We beg Konoha Village to lend a helping hand!” The messenger’s voice trembled slightly.
Ye Liangchen looked at the messenger’s anxious expression and felt an uneasy premonition in his heart.
What exactly happened in the Hidden Mist Village?
He vaguely felt that this would be a new challenge…
“Hokage-sama, I request to go to the Hidden Mist Village!”
047. Journey to the Hidden Mist (Old Version)
In the Hokage’s office, Tsunade looked solemn.
“Ye Liangchen, I’ll leave our trip to the Hidden Mist Village to you.” She solemnly handed a scroll to Ye Liangchen.
“Be careful, the situation may be more complicated than we think.”
Ye Liangchen took the scroll with a firm look in his eyes: “Don’t worry, Lord Hokage, I will ensure to complete the task!” This is a good opportunity to improve his reputation, how could he miss it?
At the pier of Konoha Village, the sea breeze howled, blowing up thousands of piles of snow.
The villagers who came to see them off had different expressions on their faces, and the atmosphere was as solemn as if it were filled with lead.
Ye Liangchen was dressed in tight clothes, standing with his hands behind his back, gazing at the rough sea.
The sea level in the distance meets the sky like a thin silver line, mysterious and unpredictable.
He took a deep breath, and the salty smell of the sea breeze stimulated his nostrils, making him feel a little excited and a little worried.
“Can this kid really do it?” A villager in the crowd whispered, his tone full of doubt.
“The Kirigakure is not a good place to live. Are you thinking of letting a sheep fall into the tiger’s mouth?”
“That’s right. I heard that the Hidden Mist Village has been in unrest lately. It might be a trap.” Another villager echoed, with a hint of fear in his eyes.
These discussions buzzed like mosquitoes and drilled into Ye Liangchen’s ears.
He frowned slightly, feeling a little shaken.
Is it really a trap?
He remembered the anxious expression of the messenger from the Hidden Mist Village and Tsunade’s instructions to him, and his fighting spirit was rekindled.
No matter what trap it is, he will fight back if the enemy comes and block it if the water comes! Ye Liangchen is not afraid of fear!
He patted the shoulder of the Konoha diplomatic ninja beside him – an experienced veteran – and smiled confidently: “Brother, let’s go!”
The two boarded the merchant ship to the Hidden Mist Village one after the other.
With a long whistle, the merchant ship slowly left the dock and headed towards the vast ocean.
On the deck, Ye Liangchen faced the sea breeze, felt the rise and fall of the waves, his heart filled with excitement for the unknown challenges.
He looked at the Konoha Village that was gradually receding, and silently said in his heart: “Wait for my good news!”
However, beneath the calm sea, something dangerous seems to be lurking, approaching quietly…
Suddenly, the ship shook violently, and a rough voice came from the bottom of the cabin: “I opened this mountain and planted this tree. If you want to pass by here, you have to leave money for passage!”
The ship shook violently, like a drunkard staggering on the sea.
“I opened this mountain, I planted this tree. If you want to pass by here, you have to leave some money for passage!” This familiar line, this familiar formula, Ye Liangchen complained in his heart: Does it have to be so old-fashioned!
A group of ferocious pirates poured out from the bottom of the cabin. Each of them was big and strong, with a face full of flesh and holding all kinds of weapons in their hands. It was obvious that they were not good people.
“Oh, there’s a pretty boy with fair skin and tender flesh. He must be worth a lot of money!” A one-eyed pirate pointed at Ye Liangchen, his saliva almost dripping.
“Looking for death!” Ye Liangchen hated it most when people called him a gigolo.
He flashed and punched the pirate in the front, sending him flying. He hit the mast directly with a loud bang.
The battle is about to begin.
The pirates relied on their numbers and pounced on them like a group of hungry wolves.
The Konoha diplomatic ninja is very experienced, his shurikens are flying like dancing silver snakes, and every move is deadly.
But two fists are no match for four hands, the pirates are becoming more and more crazy, and Konoha’s diplomatic ninjas are gradually feeling a little tired.
The situation on Ye Liangchen’s side was even more lively. He punched with his left hand and kicked with his right hand, each punch hitting the flesh and each kick moving with great force, beating the pirates until they cried for their parents.
“Ouch, my waist!” “My leg! It’s broken!” The pirates’ screams came one after another, like a tragic symphony.
The surrounding sea surface was stirred up into turbulent waves, with surging waves, as if a huge monster was roaring.
The salty and humid sea breeze mixed with the smell of blood blew in my face, making me feel sick.
Ye Liangchen felt that his chakra was being consumed rapidly, but he became more and more courageous as the battle went on, as if he was tireless.
He took a deep breath, condensed the chakra accumulated in his body into his palm, and then slapped the sea surface fiercely.
“Boom!” With a deafening noise, a huge column of water exploded on the sea surface and rushed straight into the sky.
The powerful shock wave overturned the pirate ship, and the pirates fell into the water like dumplings.
The smoke cleared and the sea returned to calm.
Ye Liangchen stood at the bow, his clothes fluttering, like a god descending from heaven.
The Konoha diplomatic ninja watched all this in amazement, his heart filled with admiration.
He walked to Ye Liangchen and gave him a thumbs up: “Great! Little brother, you are a hidden talent!” Ye Liangchen smiled slightly and waved his hand: “Keep a low profile, basic operation, basic operation.”
Suddenly, a shadow appeared on the sea…
The Konoha diplomatic ninja narrowed his eyes and his expression changed: “What is that?”
The shadow on the sea quickly expanded and became clearer and clearer. It was actually a huge warship, several times larger than the merchant ship they were on!
The warships were flying flags and filled with murderous intent, and it was obvious that they were not good people.
“Oh no! It’s the warships from the Hidden Mist Village!” The Konoha diplomatic ninja’s face suddenly changed, and he exclaimed, “Why are they here?”
Ye Liangchen frowned and thought to himself: It seems that this trip to Wuyin is more complicated than I imagined!
The warship approached quickly. A burly and aggressive ninja jumped onto the deck of the merchant ship, pointed at Ye Liangchen and the Konoha diplomatic ninja, and shouted: “Who are you? Why did you trespass into the waters of the Hidden Mist Village?”
The Konoha diplomatic ninja quickly took out Konoha’s pass and explained: “We are Konoha’s envoys, and we have been ordered to visit the Hidden Mist Village.”
“The messenger from Konoha?” The ninja sneered, “Humph, I think you are here to gather intelligence!”
“Misunderstanding! It’s definitely a misunderstanding!” The Konoha diplomatic ninja hurriedly explained, but the ninja didn’t listen at all. He waved his hand and shouted, “Come here, take them down for me!”
The ninjas from the Hidden Mist Village rushed forward and surrounded Ye Liangchen and the Konoha diplomatic ninjas.
“It seems that we have no choice but to force our way in!” Ye Liangchen
After a fierce battle, Ye Liangchen and the Konoha diplomatic ninjas finally defeated the ninjas of the Hidden Mist Village, successfully boarded the warship, and arrived at the Hidden Mist Village smoothly.
At the dock of the Hidden Mist Village, Mei Terumi had been waiting for a long time.
She was wearing a Shuiying costume, with a graceful figure and noble temperament. Her beautiful eyes were fixed on Ye Liangchen.
Ye Liangchen felt a little uncomfortable when he felt the gaze of Mei Terumi. There was a subtle and ambiguous atmosphere around him.
However, not all ninjas in the Hidden Mist Village welcomed the arrival of the Konoha envoy like Mei Terumi.
Some conservative ninjas were hostile to Ye Liangchen and his party. They refused to let Ye Liangchen enter the village and demanded that they set up camp outside the village first.
Ye Liangchen was not angry, but expressed understanding instead. This reaction was beyond the expectations of the conservative ninjas of the Hidden Mist Village.
Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, there was suddenly a commotion in the Hidden Mist Village.
A wave of mysterious power was heard, and everyone became nervous.
Ye Liangchen knew that the real challenge was about to begin…
“Walk!”
048. The Mist Hidden Change (old version)
Ye Liangchen frowned. Wasn’t this welcome ceremony for the Hidden Mist Village too grand?
Where is the harmonious diplomacy you promised?
The tense atmosphere is so intense that if you don’t know, you might think that Konoha is going to invade the Hidden Mist Village!
The corner of his mouth twitched. These conservative old stubborn people must be living in the last century, right?
Before he could open his mouth to explain, a loud earth-shaking noise was heard in the village. The noise was even more lively than setting off firecrackers during the New Year.
“Oh my god! What’s going on?” Ye Liangchen’s pupils dilated. This was much more exciting than a fight between ninjas!
The little universe in his heart instantly ignited, and his gossipy spirit was burning. Shouldn’t he go and see the excitement?
“Sorry everyone, I’ll go first!” Without waiting for the Mist Village ninja to react, Ye Liangchen used a teleportation technique and rushed out as fast as a flash of lightning, leaving everyone in disarray in the wind.
Running towards the direction of the riot, Ye Liangchen felt like he was playing a parkour game, jumping around on the rooftops of the Hidden Mist Village, as light as a swallow.
Some of the buildings along the way had collapsed, while others were still burning, and the air was filled with dust and a burnt smell.
This scene is simply a live version of a disaster movie!
“Wow, which big guy failed to survive the tribulation?” Ye Liangchen couldn’t help but complain. The destructive power was too amazing!
He saw that the faces of the Mist Village ninjas around him were all pale, as if they had seen a ghost. There were cries and screams everywhere, and it was a mess.
After arriving at the scene, the scene before him made him gasp.
The once bustling street has now become a ruin, with broken buildings everywhere, as if it had been hit by a meteorite.
The impact of this scene was even more shocking than the first time he saw Kakashi teacher without makeup!
“This… this is too outrageous, right?” Ye Liangchen swallowed, feeling mixed emotions.
On the one hand, he felt that as a righteous ninja, he had the responsibility to investigate the truth and help the Hidden Mist Village overcome its difficulties.
On the other hand, he was worried that he was not capable enough and that any rash actions would put him in danger.
After all, a mysterious force that can cause such great damage is definitely not a good thing.
“What should I do? I’m waiting online, it’s urgent!” Ye Liangchen was extremely conflicted, just like when he encountered a question he couldn’t answer during an exam, scratching his head and not knowing what to do.
The surrounding Mist Village ninjas were busy rescuing people and putting out fires, and no one noticed his presence at all.
He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
“No! I am an excellent Genin of Konoha, how can I be scared?” Ye Liangchen clenched his fists, his eyes gradually becoming firm.
He decided to observe the situation first before making any plans.
At this moment, he suddenly felt a strong chakra fluctuation…
“This feeling…” Ye Liangchen turned his head suddenly, his eyes fixed in one direction, “Someone is coming!”
The chakra fluctuation came like a tsunami, instantly overwhelming Ye Liangchen’s senses.
He only felt a chill running from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and his hair stood on end. This was definitely a master, and a top-notch boss at that!
Before he could see who was coming, a dark shadow appeared in front of him like a ghost, bringing with it a suffocating feeling of oppression.
“Fuck, it’s so fast, is he cheating?” Ye Liangchen exclaimed in his heart, but his body had already reacted.
Relying on his years of combat experience, he dodged the shadow’s attack with a backflip.
The attack carried a strange energy and brushed past his nose, instantly creating a big hole in the ground behind him, with gravel flying and dust rising.
“What is this? I’ve never seen it before!” After Ye Liangchen landed, he quickly steadied his body and only then could he see the true face of the attacker.
He was a mysterious man wearing a black robe, his face covered by a mask, and he exuded a chilling aura.
His attack method was even more bizarre, like some unknown energy, or a ball of twisted black fog. Each attack carried terrifying destructive power.
“Is this guy probably from some different dimension?” Ye Liangchen complained in his mind while dodging the black shadow’s attack.
He tried his best, moving left and right, and flying up and down, and only then he could barely avoid the black shadow’s continuous attack.
However, the attack of the black shadow was like a leech, pressing forward step by step, making it difficult for him to cope with it. His clothes were torn in several places, and he looked in a miserable state.
“Damn it, this is too bullying! Do you think I’m a soft persimmon?” Ye Liangchen clenched his teeth, and a rage burned in his heart.
He knew that this was not a solution and he had to find a way to fight back.
Just when he was about to collapse, he suddenly discovered that there was a brief pause before each attack by the black shadow.
Although this pause lasted only a brief moment, it was a great opportunity for Ye Liangchen.
“Now!” Ye Liangchen’s eyes flashed. He no longer dodged, but seized the moment when the black shadow paused and launched a counterattack.
He gathered all the chakra in his body and kicked the black shadow hard in the chest.
With a dull “bang”, the black shadow was kicked away by Ye Liangchen’s attack and hit the broken wall in the distance, making a loud noise and gravel splashing again.
The black shadow seemed to have not expected Ye Liangchen’s sudden counterattack. His body trembled slightly, and then he slowly stood up from the ground.
Ye Liangchen also took the opportunity to distance himself and looked at the black shadow vigilantly.
The surrounding Mist Village ninjas were stunned by this sudden change. They stopped what they were doing and turned their eyes to Ye Liangchen. They seemed to have not expected that a Genin from Konoha would have such powerful strength.
“Ahem…” The black shadow coughed in a low voice, with a hint of surprise in his tone: “You…are interesting.”
At this moment, a cold voice sounded in Ye Liangchen’s ears: “Who are you?”
A fair face, clear eyes, and flowing long hair, isn’t this the legendary white?
Ye Liangchen felt like he was dreaming. The peerless beauty in front of him actually took the initiative to talk to him, and there was a hint of admiration in her eyes!
Is this the blessing of the protagonist’s halo?
His heart began to beat wildly and his cheeks flushed slightly, like a young boy who had just fallen in love.
“Ahem, my name is Ye Liangchen, a Genin from Konoha, just a Kamen Rider passing by.” Ye Liangchen tried hard to appear calm, but his slightly trembling voice still exposed his nervousness.
Bai smiled slightly, as if the ice and snow melted, the flowers bloomed, and the air around them became fresh.
“Ye Liangchen…thank you.” Bai’s voice was like the sound of nature, and it made Ye Liangchen’s bones soften.
He felt like he was playing a love-development game, and his favorability rating kept rising.
At this moment, the conservative ninjas from the surrounding Hidden Mist Village also gathered around. There was no hostility on their faces, but instead a hint of admiration.
“Ye Liangchen, we didn’t expect you to be so powerful. We wronged you.” An old ninja stepped forward and apologized sincerely.
Ye Liangchen quickly waved his hands, indicating that he was just doing what he should do.
He was secretly happy in his heart, this act of pretending was perfect!
With the help of the conservative ninjas from the Hidden Mist Village, Ye Liangchen soon grasped some clues about the mysterious power.
Based on the clues, he found a mysterious cave hidden deep in the Hidden Mist Village, which was said to be the hiding place of the mysterious power.
The entrance to the cave is covered with complex seals, emitting a frightening aura.
“This seal is a bit tricky…” Ye Liangchen frowned. The complexity of this seal was far beyond his imagination.
He tried various methods to crack it, but to no avail.
Just when he was at a loss, a violent energy fluctuation suddenly came from deep in the cave, and a strong sense of oppression instantly enveloped the entire area.
“Oh no! I’ve been discovered!” Ye Liangchen was shocked. He realized that the mysterious power had sensed his presence.
He quickly stepped back, ready to fight.
At this moment, the seal at the entrance of the cave suddenly broke, and a black energy surged out like a tide, swallowing Ye Liangchen…
“This time it’s a big deal…”
049. Kirigakure’s Aid (Old Version)
The black energy hit Ye Liangchen hard like a roaring beast.
He groaned and felt his internal organs shifted. He flew backwards like a kite with a broken string and hit a rock heavily.
“Oh my god, this thing is cheating!” Ye Liangchen spat out a mouthful of blood foam and struggled to get up.
The surrounding trees were corroded by the black energy, making teeth-grinding squeaking sounds, and then quickly withered and turned into ashes.
The air was filled with a pungent burnt smell that made his throat itchy.
He took a deep breath, trying to keep himself awake.
The oppressive feeling of the mysterious force became stronger and stronger, as if an invisible mountain was pressing down on him, making it difficult for him to breathe.
He felt his chakra flow become sluggish.
“If this goes on, I’ll be in trouble…” Ye Liangchen gritted his teeth. He knew he had to find a solution as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
Suddenly, a familiar figure rushed out from the black energy, wielding a huge beheading sword, and slashed at him.
“I won’t kill him again!” Ye Liangchen’s pupils shrank and he quickly dodged sideways.
The blade brushed past his cheek, bringing up a sharp wind and causing a burning pain on his face.
“Zabuza, are you crazy?” Ye Liangchen shouted, but Zabuza acted as if he didn’t hear him. His eyes were red and he attacked him madly like a beast.
“It seems that he has also been controlled…” Ye Liangchen’s heart sank. The situation was even worse.
It seemed as if fate was playing a joke on him, setting up one obstacle after another for him.
“Hmph, you want to kill me? That’s not that easy!” Ye Liangchen took a deep breath, condensed the chakra on his fists, and prepared for this fierce battle.
“Come on, let me see what tricks you have!”
“Liangchen…” A weak voice was heard, and Bai’s figure appeared not far away, his face was pale, with blood at the corners of his mouth.
She raised her hand with difficulty and pointed at the black energy vortex behind Zabuza, “Be careful… that’s the key…”
“Oh my god, are they serious?” Ye Liangchen did a backflip to avoid Zabuza’s attack and punched him in the stomach.
With a dull “bang”, Zabuza flew out like a cannonball and crashed into several large trees before stopping.
However, he seemed to feel no pain and immediately climbed up again, with an even more fierce look in his eyes.
“This guy must be on drugs, he’s so resistant!” Ye Liangchen complained, while at the same time being alert to the black energy attacking from all directions.
This energy seemed to be alive, constantly changing its form, sometimes turning into a sharp blade, sometimes into a giant python, making it impossible to guard against.
Ye Liangchen dodged left and right, but inevitably got a few wounds on his body.
Blood flowed from the wound, causing a burning pain.
The surrounding Mist Village ninjas were all stunned. The intensity of the battle was too outrageous!
They could only worry from a distance and could not do anything.
“Liangchen, be careful!” Bai’s voice came again, weak and anxious.
Ye Liangchen glanced at Bai and his heart tightened.
He knew that Bai was in a bad situation as well, but she was still worried about him.
We must resolve this quickly!
After dodging Zabuza’s attack again, Ye Liangchen suddenly discovered that every time the black energy attacked, a wisp of black air would float from Zabuza’s body towards the energy center.
Is this the key?
Thinking of this, Ye Liangchen no longer dodged, but instead took the initiative to face Zabuza, with a dazzling light flashing on his fist.
“Now!” He shouted, and punched Zabuza hard in the chest. At the same time, he concentrated all his chakra on his fist, following the black air and hitting the energy center directly!
“Boom!” With a loud bang, the black energy vibrated violently, as if it had suffered a huge impact.
Zabuza let out a painful roar, the black energy on his body quickly dissipated, and his eyes became clear again.
The black energy began to shrink and eventually condensed into a black ball of light, which was firmly bound by Ye Liangchen’s chakra.
“Seal!” Ye Liangchen shouted in a low voice, and formed seals with his hands, sealing the black light ball in a scroll.
The light faded, and Ye Liangchen’s figure appeared. He had scars on his body, but he exuded a powerful aura.
The surrounding Mist Village ninjas burst into deafening cheers; they were saved!
In the distance, a female ninja stared at Ye Liangchen closely with a complicated look in her eyes…
“He actually did it…”
The light faded and the smoke gradually dissipated, revealing a devastated battlefield.
Ye Liangchen leaned on his knees, breathing heavily. The wounds of all sizes on his body were burning with pain, but there was a hint of a victorious smile on the corner of his mouth.
“Wow, I give myself a thumbs up for this operation!” Ye Liangchen couldn’t help but show off.
“Liangchen…are you okay?” Bai struggled to stand up and walked towards Ye Liangchen, his eyes full of worry.
“It’s okay, just a small scene, just sprinkle some water!” Ye Liangchen waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.
At this time, a figure slowly walked in front of Ye Liangchen. It was the female ninja who had been hostile to Ye Liangchen before.
She lowered her head with a trace of shame on her face, “I’m sorry, I misunderstood you before, I shouldn’t have treated you like that…”
“Oh, the sudden change in style, are they going to stage an idol drama?” Ye Liangchen secretly complained in his mind, but his face had a “generous” expression.
“It’s okay, as long as the misunderstanding is resolved. Everyone makes mistakes sometimes.” Ye Liangchen waved his hand with a bright smile. “Besides, you look so cute when you apologize. I forgive you!”
The female ninja blushed, lowered her head even lower, and said in a voice as thin as a mosquito, “Thank you… You are such a good person.” She raised her head,
The surrounding Mist Village ninjas also gathered around, looking at Ye Liangchen with eyes full of admiration and gratitude.
Mei Terumi slowly walked to Ye Liangchen and said with a smile, “Ye Liangchen, you really helped our Kirigakure a lot this time. We want to give you a generous reward to thank you for your help.”
Ye Liangchen waved his hand, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and his tone was firm and unquestionable, “No need for compensation. This time I came to the Hidden Mist Village mainly to prove the friendship between our Konoha Village and the Hidden Mist Village. We are all family, and it is too vulgar to talk about money.”
After these words were spoken, the ninjas of the Hidden Mist Village were even more in awe.
Even the usually serious and conservative ninjas gave Ye Liangchen a thumbs up, expressing their sincere admiration, “The ninjas of Konoha Village are indeed loyal and righteous men!”
Ye Liangchen’s actions instantly made the image of Konoha Village in the Hidden Mist Village taller, and he himself became a hero of the Hidden Mist Village.
When saying goodbye, Mei Terumi personally saw Ye Liangchen off. Her”
Ye Liangchen said goodbye to her with a smile and returned to Konoha Village with the friendship and glory of the Hidden Mist Village.
However, before he could rest properly, he was told that he had to undergo a joint test by the jonins in order to be promoted to chunin.
“What? We still have to take an exam? I’m so tired…”
(End of this chapter)
050. Chunin Test: Ye Liangchen’s passionate beginning (old version)
Ye Liangchen dragged his tired body back to Konoha. Before he had time to feel the warmth of home, he was “enthusiastically” invited to a special training ground by an Anbu ninja.
It is said to be special, but in fact it is just an open space outside Konoha Village, but today there are many more people coming to watch the fun.
The densely packed Konoha ninjas around him stared at him intently, as if they were admiring a suckling pig that was about to be put on the grill.
Ye Liangchen felt like a monkey in a zoo, being watched by everyone and feeling under a lot of pressure.
He even heard someone whispering, “Is this the legendary King of Rolls? He doesn’t look anything special.”
“Shh, keep your voice down. I heard that he completed the mission in the Hidden Mist Village very well this time. Even Mei Terumi praised him highly.”
“Tsk, maybe he used some shameful means…”
The corners of Ye Liangchen’s mouth twitched, and he thought to himself, “Is it easy for me? I’ve worked so hard for the honor of the village, and now I have to accept your scrutiny?”
However, he quickly adjusted his mentality.
Isn’t it just an exam?
Who is afraid of whom?
Back then, he was the top scorer in the college entrance examination. What kind of storms had he not seen?
Let’s just pour some water on this little bit of pressure!
He took a deep breath, looked forward with a determined look, and prepared to meet the challenge.
At this time, Kakashi’s lazy voice sounded: “Ahem, this time, the Chunin Exam will be in charge of me and Might Guy. The first test is to have an actual combat confrontation with the Anbu ninja.”
Just as he finished speaking, a tall female ANBU ninja in black tights walked out from the crowd.
She was wearing a mask so her face couldn’t be seen, but she exuded a cold aura that made people shudder.
Ye Liangchen’s heart trembled. It was obvious from the aura that this person was not a good person.
At this moment, he caught a glimpse from the corner of his eye that Uchiha Sasuke secretly gave a wink to the female ANBU ninja, and that look clearly contained a hint of sinisterness and provocation.
Ye Liangchen sneered in his heart. This kid was indeed still brooding over him.
It seems that this exam is not only a test of ability, but also a challenge to interpersonal relationships.
But who is he Ye Liangchen?
Why would you be afraid of such a little trick?
The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and the fighting spirit in his heart burned: “Sasuke, Sasuke, since you want to play so much, then I will play with you!”
The female ANBU ninja slowly drew out her kunai, a cold light flashed, and her murderous intent was revealed.
Ye Liangchen also assumed a fighting stance, staring at the other party with sharp eyes. The air was filled with a tense atmosphere.
“Begin!” Kakashi ordered.
Ye Liangchen did not act rashly, but stared at his opponent closely, like a cheetah ready to pounce, waiting for the best time to attack.
“Hmph, pretending!” The Anbu female ninja snorted coldly, and her figure flashed and disappeared in an instant…
“Here it comes!” Ye Liangchen said in his heart.
The female ninja from the Anbu appeared in front of Ye Liangchen in an instant like a ghost.
The kunai, along with a fierce gust of wind, pierced his throat.
Her movements were so fast that one could hardly see them, and could only feel the pressing chill.
“Shit, did this woman activate the teleportation cheat?” Ye Liangchen exclaimed in his heart, but his body slid backwards flexibly like a loach, narrowly avoiding the fatal blow.
The kunai brushed across his cheek, causing a stinging sensation. Ye Liangchen could even feel the touch of the fine hairs on his skin being scraped off.
This made him even more alert. This female ninja from the Anbu was definitely not someone who could be easily dealt with.
“Swish, swish, swish!”
The attacks of the Anbu female ninja came one after another like a storm. The kunai in her hands seemed to come alive, sometimes stabbing straight, sometimes sweeping sideways, each time with a strong murderous intent.
Ye Liangchen tried his best to dodge, his figure flashing in the venue like a ghost. Every time it was like dancing on the edge of a knife, which made the surrounding Genin tremble with fear.
“Oh my god, is this still a fight between Genin? I don’t think I can last even a second if I go up there.”
“That ANBU ninja is so strong, he is worthy of being the elite of ANBU. His speed and strength are simply inhuman!”
“That Ye Liangchen is not bad, he was able to dodge so many attacks, is he really just a Genin?”
The Genin were talking among themselves, and a tense atmosphere spread among the crowd.
They had never seen such a fierce battle. It was as if they were on a small boat in a storm, which could be swallowed by the huge waves at any time.
Ye Liangchen was constantly dodging, his nerves were highly tense and his five senses were magnified to the extreme.
He stared at the movements of the Anbu female ninja, trying to find a chance to counterattack.
Suddenly, he discovered a flaw – after the continuous attacks, the Anbu female ninja’s breath became disordered for a moment!
“The opportunity has come!”
Ye Liangchen’s eyes focused and he stopped dodging. Instead, he took a step forward and his body shot like an arrow from a bow, instantly rushing in front of the Anbu female ninja.
He mobilized all the chakra in his body, gathered it on his right fist, and punched out fiercely.
A dull impact sound was heard, and Ye Liangchen’s fist hit the Anbu female ninja’s abdomen solidly.
The female ANBU ninja groaned, her body flew backwards, and she took several steps back on the ground before she stabilized her body.
Her face beneath the mask showed obvious shock at this moment.
The surrounding Genin exclaimed in surprise. They didn’t expect that Ye Liangchen could actually fight off the Anbu female ninja head-on. This was simply incredible.
“Wow, Ye Liangchen is so handsome!”
“Too strong, this is the real King of Rolls!”
“I feel like I’m in love, he’s so charming!”
Some female Genin looked at Ye Liangchen with admiration in their eyes, as if they saw their idol.
Ye Liangchen grinned and revealed a confident smile. He used all his strength in that punch just now.
He dusted himself off and looked at the Anbu female ninja who was covering her abdomen. Just as he was about to say something, he saw her slowly raise her head, her eyes filled with…
excited?
“interesting!”
After the battle, Ye Liangchen’s Genin uniform, which was already a little damaged, now had several more holes. Sweat soaked his clothes, which stuck to his body, outlining his strong muscles vaguely. When the sunlight shone on him, he was like a walking hormone.
The female ninjas around, seeing this scene, all blushed and their hearts beat fast, their eyes were almost tearing, and they wanted to rush up to wipe the sweat off his face.
Ye Liangchen felt the burning gazes of these “fangirls”, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he felt secretly happy: “Brother’s charm is really popular with both men and women!”
Just when everyone thought that Ye Liangchen would seize the opportunity to attack the female ninja with a wave of “love crit”, he unexpectedly stopped, and gentlemanly extended his hand to help the female ninja up, saying: “Miss, we were just sparring just now, don’t take it to heart. Let’s stop here, friendship first, competition second!” These words instantly made everyone present look at him with new eyes, and they all exclaimed: “This kid is not only strong, but also has great character!”
Kakashi also raised his eyebrows in surprise, thinking: “This kid is quite interesting.” He cleared his throat and announced: “Ahem, Ye Liangchen, the first test is passed! But don’t be too happy too soon, the second test will start soon!” He pointed to the mountains in the distance and continued: “Your task is to go to the mountains outside Konoha Village within one day and collect a rare herb called ‘Moonlight Grass’. The time limit is one day, start counting!”
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
This mountain range is not a good place to go. Not only does it have complex terrain, but it also contains various unknown dangers.
For a Genin, one day is simply hell mode.
Everyone began to whisper: “This is too difficult, Ye Liangchen is probably going to fail this time.” “Yes, that mountain range is notoriously dangerous, can he really complete it?”
Ye Liangchen listened to the discussions around him without any fear. Instead, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a confident smile. He thought to himself: “Oh, isn’t it just collecting herbs? It’s a small matter! I want to be the man of Hokage!” He looked at Kakashi,
Kakashi looked at Ye Liangchen,
Just when everyone thought that the test had officially begun and Ye Liangchen would set off immediately, he simply stretched his muscles on the spot, making a series of “cracking” sounds, then hooked his finger at Uchiha Sasuke beside him, with a hint of provocation in his tone, “Little Sasuke, wait for me to come back and bring you some local specialties!” After that, he walked slowly in another direction.
051. This time, I won’t fail (old version)
The morning sun was still a bit lazy, but Ye Liangchen was already full of energy, as if he had been injected with chicken blood, and set out on the road to the mountains in high spirits.
The Leaf Village behind him was still shrouded in a thin layer of mist, but he couldn’t wait to begin his journey as the “King of Scrolls”.
At the entrance of the mountain range, a damp smell of earth blew in the face, mixed with the fragrance of unknown wild flowers, which made Ye Liangchen feel a little better.
But the good times did not last long. As soon as he stepped into the mountains, he felt the malice of nature.
The steep mountain roads are like coiled giant pythons, winding upwards, and if you are not careful you may slide into the valley.
The gravel under his feet was like naughty children, ready to trip him at any time.
“Tsk tsk, this difficulty is quite interesting.” Ye Liangchen muttered to himself while nimbly dodging the traps under his feet.
He was like an agile cheetah, jumping lightly on the mountain road and occasionally doing some fancy moves, which had a bit of “acrobatics”.
He always pays attention to the movements around him, and no matter how small the movement, he will hear it.
“Whoosh!”
Suddenly, raindrops began to fall from the sky. At first it was just a drizzle, but in a blink of an eye it turned into a downpour.
The rain hit Ye Liangchen’s face, icy cold. His clothes were instantly soaked and stuck to his body, making him feel very uncomfortable.
The mountain road became muddy and slippery, as if it was covered with a layer of lubricant, making it difficult to move forward.
“Damn, the rain is so heavy!” Ye Liangchen couldn’t help but complain, but he didn’t dare to slack off at all.
He took cautious steps, trying to find a place to stay.
“ah!”
At this moment, his feet slipped and he lost his balance instantly.
He felt like a kite with a broken string, falling towards the valley.
“Fuck! This is too much!”
Ye Liangchen was shocked, and a strong sense of weightlessness surged into his heart.
Just when he thought he was about to have an “intimate contact” with the earth, he was quick-eyed and quick-handed and grabbed a thick branch nearby.
He exerted force with his arms to stop his falling trend, and his whole body clung to the cliff wall like a gecko.
“Phew…that was a close call! I almost died!” Ye Liangchen let out a long sigh, his back already soaked with cold sweat.
He looked back at the bottomless valley and couldn’t help feeling a little scared, but he quickly regained his composure.
He gritted his teeth and set out on his journey again.
He looked up and ahead with a firm gaze, “This little rain, what’s that?” He shook his head vigorously to shake off the rain on his face, and then continued to walk deeper into the mountains.
“What surprise will be waiting for me next?” Ye Liangchen said in a low voice with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
In the rain, Ye Liangchen keenly discovered a herb that was glowing faintly, hidden in the dense bushes.
Just as he was about to go forward to pick them, a low roar came from deep in the bushes, making his eardrums buzz.
“Oh my god, is there a boss battle?” Ye Liangchen complained, clenching the kunai in his hand and assuming a fighting stance.
A huge wild boar with sharp fangs and bloodshot eyes rushed out from the bushes and headed straight for Ye Liangchen.
“Brother, I advise you to be kind and don’t force me to take action!” Ye Liangchen said as he nimbly dodged the wild boar’s charge.
The wild boar missed the first attack and became even more angry. It turned its four hooves and pounced on Ye Liangchen again.
Ye Liangchen did not dare to be careless. He used all his strength and fought fiercely with the wild boar.
He sometimes jumped to dodge, sometimes swung a kunai to counterattack, and each attack was precise and powerful.
Although the wild boar’s attacks were fierce, they were all cleverly resolved by Ye Liangchen.
During the fight, Ye Liangchen was inevitably injured. His arms and thighs were scratched by the wild boar’s tusks, and his clothes were stained with blood.
But he did not retreat, instead he fought more bravely.
“Come on! Let’s hurt each other!” Ye Liangchen roared, concentrated all the chakra in his body on his hands, and punched the wild boar’s head hard.
The wild boar let out a scream, and its huge body fell to the ground with a bang, never to move again.
Ye Liangchen breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the rain and blood off his face, limped to the herbs, and picked them carefully.
“Done! Time to call it a day!” He gave a smug smile.
At this moment, a familiar figure appeared in front of him—Uchiha Sasuke.
“Hmph, Ye Liangchen, I didn’t expect you to be so lucky that you actually found the herbs.” Sasuke said with a hint of jealousy in his tone.
“Haha, luck is also part of strength.” Ye Liangchen shrugged and didn’t care.
“Give me the herbs!” Sasuke’s eyes turned cold and he reached out to snatch them.
“You’re dreaming!” Ye Liangchen sneered, easily dodged Sasuke’s attack, and then kicked him to the ground.
“With your level, you still want to steal my things? Go back and practice for a few more years!” Ye Liangchen said disdainfully.
Sasuke got up dejectedly, glared at Ye Liangchen fiercely, then turned and ran away.
“Tsk, defeated general!” Ye Liangchen looked at Sasuke’s embarrassed back, his heart filled with a sense of accomplishment.
He carefully put away the herbs and prepared to go down the mountain to report.
Suddenly, he felt a strange breath behind him…
“Who?” Ye Liangchen turned back suddenly with a vigilant look.
In the rain, a dark shadow slowly walked out from behind the tree. It was a female ninja wearing a black tights and with a stern face.
She stared at Ye Liangchen with complicated eyes and said in a cold tone: “You are injured.”
Ye Liangchen was stunned. This voice sounded familiar.
Isn’t this the cold-faced queen I met in the previous mission?
“Um…it’s just a minor injury, no big deal.” Ye Liangchen scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.
After all, he had just defeated a wild boar like a god of war, but now he looked like a poor little thing.
The female ninja didn’t say anything, but walked straight to Ye Liangchen, took out bandages and ointment, and bandaged his wound skillfully.
She moved gently, fearing to hurt Ye Liangchen.
Ye Liangchen felt the warmth of her fingertips, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.
“Hey, girl, you are so nice to me, do you like me?” Ye Liangchen couldn’t help but tease, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere.
The female ninja rolled her eyes at him and didn’t answer, but the corners of her mouth lifted slightly, revealing an imperceptible smile.
After bandaging the wound, she said softly, “Be careful next time.” Then she disappeared in the rain like a gust of wind.
Ye Liangchen looked at the direction where she disappeared, touched his bandaged wound, and a strange feeling suddenly arose in his heart.
“Tsk, this girl is quite interesting.”
After returning to Konoha Village, Ye Liangchen did not rush to hand in the task, but ran to the village library and began to study the herbs he had just picked.
He flipped through various ancient books, looked up the properties and uses of herbs, and even did some simple experiments himself.
When he handed the experimental report to Might Guy, Might Guy’s jaw dropped.
“You kid, you actually know herbology? That’s a real surprise!”
“Basic operations, don’t be silly, they are all basic operations!” Ye Liangchen waved his hand, his tone full of confidence.
Might Guy patted his shoulder and nodded with satisfaction, “Very good, Ye Liangchen! You have passed the second test. The next test is to protect an important document in the confidential archives room of Konoha Village. There may be traitors there, so you have to be careful.”
When Ye Liangchen heard this, he immediately became energetic.
“Traitor? Interesting! This time, I want to give them a proper meeting!”
Ye Liangchen knew that this would be a more difficult test. He didn’t know who the traitor was or what means he would use, but he was fully prepared.
As night fell, Konoha Village was shrouded in silence.
Ye Liangchen walked alone into the heavily guarded confidential archive room. He felt an unusual atmosphere in the air.
He clenched the kunai in his hand, his eyes full of vigilance, and a voice sounded in his heart, “This time, I will not flip over!”
052. Why are you here? (Old version)
Ye Liangchen walked alone towards the heavily guarded confidential archive room. He felt an unusual atmosphere in the air.
The Secret Archives Room is located in the center of Konoha Village, protected by several layers of solid stone walls and protective barriers.
Ye Liangchen looked around vigilantly while pushing open the heavy door and stepping into the dark corridor.
There are dim lamps inlaid on the walls on both sides of the corridor. The weak light casts mottled shadows on the walls. Every step is accompanied by an echo, making it seem particularly quiet.
Ye Liangchen held the kunai tightly and moved forward slowly.
He carefully checked the surroundings, leaving out every door and every corner.
He knew that traitors could be hiding anywhere and that the slightest negligence could lead to a big mistake.
Suddenly, a slight noise came from the front and Ye Liangchen immediately became alert.
He held his breath and quietly approached the source of the sound.
At the end of the corridor, a woman in a Konoha ninja uniform stood in front of a door, trying to open the lock with a slender tool.
“Stop!” Ye Liangchen shouted in a low voice and quickly dodged, with the kunai flashing coldly in his hand.
The woman was startled by Ye Liangchen’s sudden appearance, but she quickly regained her composure.
She turned around and revealed a familiar face – Red Bean, a special jonin of Konoha Village, who was responsible for intelligence-related work.
“Ye Liangchen, is it you?” Hongdou smiled slightly, with a hint of cunning in her smile.
“Why are you here?” Ye Liangchen asked vigilantly, holding the kunai tightly.
Anko’s voice became low and dangerous. “Of course it’s for this confidential document. Do you think I’ll give up so easily?”
Before she finished her words, Hongdou quickly formed a seal and a purple smoke spread out from her hands.
Ye Liangchen immediately felt a powerful chakra fluctuation, and he knew that this was Hongdou’s ninjutsu.
“Wind Style: Kamaitachi!” Hongdou shouted softly, and the smoke in her hand turned into several sharp wind blades, rushing towards Ye Liangchen.
Ye Liangchen reacted quickly and rolled to avoid the wind blade.
He formed seals with his hands and chakra quickly condensed in his body.
“Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet!” He shouted, and a huge water dragon emerged from the ground, blocking Hongdou’s attack.
“Hmph, I didn’t expect you to be so difficult to deal with!” Hongdou sneered, her figure moving quickly in the smoke, as elusive as a ghost.
Ye Liangchen chased after him relentlessly, the kunai in his hand drawing arcs in the air, each strike was precise and swift.
The battle between the two became more and more intense, and the confidential archive room was filled with chakra fluctuations and the sounds of ninjutsu.
Hongdou’s ninjutsu was so unpredictable that Ye Liangchen was overwhelmed.
He clenched his teeth and secretly thought of a countermeasure in his mind.
Just then, an unexpected sound came from the other end of the corridor, as if someone was approaching quietly.
Ye Liangchen’s heart trembled, and he thought to himself: “Oh no, there is an ambush!”
He quickly adjusted his posture and prepared to meet new challenges.
Hongdou gave a meaningful smile and changed the seals in her hands.
Hongdou’s ninjutsu was indeed unpredictable. For a moment, Ye Liangchen seemed to be in a fantasy world of purple mist, which made him dizzy.
How could a dignified time traveler be stumped by such a small trick?
He took a deep breath and silently said, “Keep calm, we can win!” His brain was working rapidly, analyzing the flaws in Hongdou’s ninjutsu.
In a flash, Ye Liangchen seized the opportunity and slid behind Hongdou at an astonishing speed.
“Bang, bang” two punches hit Hongdou’s back.
Hongdou groaned and almost vomited out her dinner.
Before she could react, Ye Liangchen gave Hongdou another clean and neat roundhouse kick, sending her flying.
“Oh my god! This kid is so ruthless!” The ninjas watching were amazed, and many people began to discuss in a low voice, “This speed, this strength, this reaction, it’s amazing!”, “Is this kid cheating?”
“Cough cough cough…” Hongdou struggled to get up, disbelief written all over her face, “How is this possible? You actually…”
“Thank you, thank you!” Ye Liangchen cupped his hands with a humble smile on his face, but he was very happy in his heart: Hey, little brat, you’re too young to fight with me!
After Hongdou was subdued, Ye Liangchen finally had the opportunity to carefully look at the confidential document.
The document records the history of Konoha Village, but it also contains some strange symbols that seem to be some kind of secret code.
Ye Liangchen frowned and thought to himself: Could this be the key to solving the historical mystery of Konoha Village?
The surrounding ninjas also gathered around and looked at the symbols on the document curiously.
Someone couldn’t help but ask: “Ye Liangchen, can you understand these symbols?”
Ye Liangchen nodded pretentiously and said, “I understand a little bit, a little bit.” He pretended to study the symbols, touching his chin from time to time, as if he was thinking about some important problem.
The people around him were stunned by his appearance. They felt that he was unfathomable and couldn’t help but admire him even more.
At this moment, Ye Liangchen’s face suddenly changed. He pointed at a symbol on the document and said, “Wait, this symbol…” He paused, glanced at everyone, and said slowly, “It seems something is wrong…”
Ino’s father, the head of the Yamanaka clan, has been secretly observing this ordeal.
Seeing Ye Liangchen’s outstanding performance, he couldn’t help but stroke his beard, with a pleased smile on his face, “This kid is quite interesting! He is strong and knows how to share. He is a promising talent!” He turned to look at his daughter Ino beside him with a trace of love in his eyes, “Ino, go give Ye Liangchen a bottle of water and tell him it’s a little gift from me.”
Ino took the water bottle, her pretty face slightly blushed, and she slowly walked towards Ye Liangchen.
She secretly looked at Ye Liangchen who was studying a document. The sunlight shone on his profile, making him look particularly focused and serious, which made her heart beat faster. “Wow, serious men are so handsome!”
She gently placed the water bottle next to Ye Liangchen and said softly, “Ye Liangchen, you’ve worked hard, drink some water.”
When Ye Liangchen heard the voice, he looked up and saw Ino’s slightly shy smile. His heart was moved and he felt a warm current rushing to his cheeks.
He took the bottle and scratched his head, “Thank you, Ino, you’re so kind.”
Ye Liangchen was not in a hurry to solve the puzzle, but cleared his throat and said to the ninjas present: “Everyone, although I know a little about the symbols on this document, it is not my wealth after all. This is the common heritage of our entire Konoha Village! I think we should study it together and protect this secret together!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was in an uproar, and all the ninjas looked at Ye Liangchen with disbelief.
You know, this is the key to promotion to Chunin!
He’s willing to share?
Even Uchiha Sasuke, who had always been hostile to Ye Liangchen, couldn’t help but feel a little respect for him at this moment.
Everyone gathered around and discussed the meaning of the symbols.
Ye Liangchen silently observed their reactions and nodded secretly in his heart, “Well, teamwork is king!”
Just when everyone thought that Ye Liangchen was about to solve the mystery and successfully be promoted to Chunin, his face suddenly changed and his brows furrowed.
He pointed to a symbol on the document and said in a serious tone, “Wait, this symbol… seems a little wrong! Do you think these symbols are not just historical records?”
He paused, looked at everyone, and said slowly: “If I’m not mistaken, there is a bigger conspiracy behind this, which may threaten the entire Konoha Village!”
The air seemed to freeze, all the noise disappeared, leaving only the shocked eyes of the crowd and Ye Liangchen’s solemn expression.
Ye Liangchen stared at the document closely and muttered to himself: “It seems that I have to start with the file records in the archives room…”
053.Follow me closely (old version)
The archive room was filled with the smell of old papers, and the air was so heavy that it seemed frozen.
Ye Liangchen was like a tireless machine, buried in the vast pile of documents.
The sound of turning pages echoed in the silent space like a monotonous lullaby.
But he was extremely clear-headed. Every document and every symbol were engraved in his mind like a brand.
“What on earth are these scribbles trying to express?” Ye Liangchen rubbed his sore eyes and complained in his heart.
He felt like he was playing an extremely difficult puzzle game. The clues were scattered, there was no clue at all, and there was no strategy to follow.
As time passed, the sunlight outside the archive room gradually set, and the shadows lengthened, adding a bit of depression.
Ye Liangchen knew that he had to speed up, as the enemy would not give him unlimited time.
Finally, among a pile of scrolls about ancient ninjutsu, he found some patterns similar to those symbols.
“Great! Finally there is some progress!” he whispered excitedly, as if he had found an oasis in the desert.
However, fate always seems to play jokes on us.
Just as he was about to study the patterns carefully, a strong chakra fluctuation suddenly hit him.
He looked up suddenly and saw a black shadow flash by, and then an invisible pressure locked him tightly.
“What’s going on? A sneak attack?” Ye Liangchen was shocked and quickly mobilized his chakra to prepare for the attack.
This chakra was cold and strange, carrying a strong murderous aura that made him shudder.
“This feels… a bit like…” His pupils suddenly shrank, and an ominous premonition surged in his heart, “Anbu?!”
“Who is it?!” Ye Liangchen shouted loudly, while taking a defensive stance.
A cold voice slowly sounded in the air: “Your curiosity is too strong…” The air in the archives room solidified instantly, and the murderous aura was as piercing as ice.
Ye Liangchen only felt a flash before his eyes, and a figure dressed in black and wearing an animal mask was approaching.
“Damn, are you serious?!” Ye Liangchen screamed in surprise and quickly dodged.
The attacker attacked swiftly and his moves were strange and unpredictable. Sometimes they were as intense as a storm, and sometimes they were as vicious as a poisonous snake.
Ye Liangchen did not dare to be careless. He used all his strength to activate his chakra and his steps were flexibly changing, barely avoiding the attack.
“What kind of weird ninjutsu is this? Why does it look like dancing?” Ye Liangchen complained while dodging.
The attacker’s moves were completely unconventional, sometimes like flexible yoga, sometimes like street dance and breakdance, which dazzled him.
“Swoosh!” A shuriken came towards him with a sharp gust of wind. Ye Liangchen dodged it by turning sideways. The shuriken flew past his cheek, leaving a tiny mark of blood.
“Hiss… You can’t afford to play, right? Use hidden weapons!” He couldn’t help but complain.
The attacker said nothing, his moves became more and more fierce, and his figure was erratic like a ghost, making it difficult to predict.
Ye Liangchen felt like a mouse being teased by a cat, running around in a hurry.
But he did not give up, instead he became more and more courageous.
Every dodge and every block made him more familiar with the attacker’s moves.
Finally, during a confrontation, Ye Liangchen caught a subtle flaw in the attacker – at the moment of changing his body shape, there was a slight stagnation in the flow of his chakra.
“Now!” Ye Liangchen’s eyes flashed, and he punched out suddenly, hitting the attacker in the chest.
“Bang!” With a dull sound, the attacker was knocked back several steps, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth under the mask.
The ninjas watching the battle around exclaimed in surprise. They didn’t expect that Ye Liangchen could actually force back the Anbu master.
Taking advantage of the victory, Ye Liangchen quickly stepped forward and pulled off a pendant from the attacker.
It was a wooden sign carved with a special pattern, emitting a faint chakra fluctuation.
“This thing… looks a little familiar…” Ye Liangchen narrowed his eyes and had a bold guess in his mind.
The surrounding ninjas all cast admiring glances at him, and Ye Liangchen’s prestige was greatly enhanced at this moment.
He clenched the wooden sign in his hand, a meaningful smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.
“It seems that things are becoming more and more interesting…” He muttered to himself, his eyes cast into the depths of the archive room, and a dark shadow flashed by.
Ino came bouncing over, her hands behind her back, her cheeks slightly red, like a ripe apple.
“Ye Liangchen, I…my father asked me to help you!” Her voice was as soft as a mosquito, but her eyes were fixed on Ye Liangchen, full of little stars of admiration.
Ye Liangchen felt a little scared when he was stared at. What’s wrong with this girl? Her eyes are so fiery. If someone didn’t know him, they would think he was some stunningly handsome man.
He coughed dryly and raised his eyebrows pretending to be calm, “Oh? The mountain chief asked you to come? It seems that this matter is not simple.” He deliberately emphasized the three words “not simple”, with a cynical smile in his eyes, trying to hide his inner panic in this way.
Ino blushed even more at his ruffian look, and her heartbeat began to speed up. She stammered, “Yes… yes, my father said… that you have great abilities and can… help us…”
“Ahem, keep a low profile, basic operations, basic operations.” Ye Liangchen waved his hands, but he was secretly happy in his heart. He didn’t expect that he would become famous in Konoha so quickly. Even Yamanaka Inoichi noticed him.
He did not hide the token, but took it out openly and showed it to Kakashi and Might Guy.
Kakashi took the token and frowned. The material of this thing and the pattern on it exuded a strange aura.
“This thing…where did you get it from?” he asked in a serious tone.
“Hehe, it’s a secret.” Ye Liangchen blinked mysteriously, then said seriously, “But this is not just my business. This is Konoha Village’s business. Let’s study it together.”
When Might Guy heard this, his blood immediately boiled, “The passion of youth tells me that there must be a huge conspiracy hidden in this! Let’s uncover it together!”
After some research, they found that the token actually pointed to a mysterious organization in Konoha Village. This organization seemed to be related to some events many years ago, such as…
Missing cat?
Stolen ramen?
besides……
Who shaved off half of Kai’s eyebrows?
Just as they were about to investigate further, an Anbu ninja suddenly appeared and said, “The next test is about to begin. Please go to the designated location immediately.” His tone was cold, without a trace of emotion.
“Wait, this test… is it related to this organization?” Ye Liangchen suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
The Anbu ninja did not answer, but just left a meaningful look and then disappeared into the darkness.
“Damn, they’re using the same trick again! Keeping me on suspense, eh?” Ye Liangchen cursed inwardly, clenched the token in his hand, his eyes became determined.
“It seems that this test… is not easy…” He took a step forward and walked towards the unknown challenge.
Suddenly, he stopped and said, “Ino, follow me closely.”
054. Danger lurks on every side (old version)
Ye Liangchen took a deep breath and stepped into the new test venue.
There was a damp, musty smell in the air. Above our heads were ancient trees with intertwined roots, blocking out the sun. The place was as eerie as the setting of a horror movie.
He took each step carefully. The ground under his feet was bumpy and uneven. From time to time, he would step on some unknown soft and rotten things. This feeling was so exciting.
“Tsk, this place, could it be some perverted old man’s secret base?” Ye Liangchen complained while looking around vigilantly.
It was eerily quiet all around, with only the rustling sound of the wind blowing through the leaves. It felt like countless pairs of eyes were watching in the dark, and it gave me goosebumps.
He could feel that this test was definitely not a simple “one, two, three, statue” game, but was definitely at the level of “kaleidoscope of death”.
“It seems that I have to be more serious this time and not slack off anymore.” Ye Liangchen said to himself, and then activated the 360-degree all-round reconnaissance mode with no blind spots, like a vigilant owl.
He didn’t want to die for no reason. After all, he was going to be the Hokage!
Just as he was walking carefully, suddenly, there was a “click” sound under his feet!
Ye Liangchen was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He rolled sideways and dodged a series of sharp arrows shot from the ground.
“Damn it!” He cursed in his heart. This is not the way to trigger a normal mechanism!
“Uchiha Sasuke!” Ye Liangchen understood instantly that it must be that arrogant second pillar who was doing something secretly again.
This guy is really haunting and doesn’t even take a breath when doing things.
Feeling the full malice from Uchiha Sasuke, Ye Liangchen was immediately furious.
This little brat is not only jealous of his good looks, but also jealous of his rapid progress. He wants to torture him to death!
Sharp arrows fell like raindrops. Ye Liangchen dodged left and right, his body as agile as a loach. He easily avoided a wave of attacks, but he had no intention of giving up.
Ye Liangchen steadied himself, a gleam of light flashing in his eyes, “Good boy, you actually dared to trick me, it seems that it is time to let you see what a real ‘roll king’ is!”
He stomped his foot hard, and a crack appeared on the ground instantly, as if it was going to tear the entire space apart.
At this moment, there was a slight “whoosh” sound in the air, like the sound of something sharp cutting through the air.
Ye Liangchen’s pupils suddenly shrank, and he clearly realized that a new danger was coming.
Ye Liangchen had just dodged the spikes when the sound of breaking air suddenly approached!
He caught a glimpse of a cold light out of the corner of his eye, and almost instinctively ducked and rolled, barely avoiding a kunai.
Before he could catch his breath, several more shurikens attacked from all directions, blocking all his escape routes.
My goodness, is this a group of people coming to defeat him?
“Are you serious?” Ye Liangchen complained, his adrenaline surged, and his body’s potential seemed to be instantly stimulated.
His steps were unpredictable, as if he was riding on a Hot Wheels, and he moved freely among the intensive attacks.
The shuriken flew past the corner of his clothes, bringing up gusts of wind, which was extremely thrilling.
These mysterious ninjas work in perfect harmony, their attacks are like a tide, and every move is deadly.
One ninja held a chain and tried to entangle Ye Liangchen’s legs, while the other ninja jumped down from a high place, wielding a kunai and aiming straight for his throat.
“Want to control me? No way!” Ye Liangchen sneered, did a backflip to avoid the chain, and at the same time, kicked the ninja who jumped down with a backhand sweep, kicking him away.
His agility caught the enemy off guard.
They obviously didn’t expect that a Genin could have such reaction speed and fighting skills.
The female ninja in the dark also nodded secretly to Ye Liangchen’s performance.
While dodging the attacks, Ye Liangchen keenly captured a pattern in the enemy’s attacks: there would be a slight pause before each attack.
Although the pause was short, it was enough for Ye Liangchen.
“I’ve found your weakness!” Ye Liangchen curled up his lips into a confident smile, began to predict the enemy’s attacks, and launched precise counterattacks.
He no longer passively defended himself, but took the initiative to attack, using both his fists and feet, each move was fierce, and he defeated the enemy step by step.
After several rounds, the mysterious ninja was completely at a disadvantage and was beaten by Ye Liangchen without any chance to fight back.
He seized the opportunity and knocked down the last ninja with a heavy punch, ending the battle.
“That’s all? You still want to trick me?” Ye Liangchen dusted off his body, looking disdainful.
After defeating these ninjas, Ye Liangchen carefully inspected the surrounding environment and soon found evidence that Sasuke had modified the mechanism – a thin thread engraved with the Uchiha clan emblem.
“We’ve caught the criminal red-handed, Sasuke, what else do you have to say?” Ye Liangchen walked up to Sasuke with the evidence in his hand, his tone cold.
Sasuke’s face turned pale. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he had nothing to say and could only silently endure the strange looks from everyone around him.
When the other Genin saw Sasuke’s frustrated look, they became even more in awe of Ye Liangchen.
“Ye Liangchen, awesome!” Someone shouted, and cheers broke out among the crowd.
Ye Liangchen smiled slightly, turned and left.
He didn’t know that a pair of eyes in the dark were watching him closely…
“This boy is quite interesting…” The female ninja from the Anbu, codenamed “Nightingale”, was cold and ruthless before, but now she seemed like a different person.
She walked lightly in front of Ye Liangchen, with a barely perceptible shyness in her eyes.
“You are hurt.” Nightingale’s voice was gentle, completely different from before.
She took out medicine from her bosom and carefully treated Ye Liangchen’s wound, her movements as gentle as if she were treating a treasure.
Ye Liangchen was a little confused. What was going on?
Didn’t this girl have that cool and aloof attitude of “stay away from me” before?
Why are you suddenly so gentle now?
Could it be that my charm is so great that she is bewitched by me?
Thinking of this, Ye Liangchen couldn’t help but feel a little proud, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
There was a faint sense of ambiguity in the air around.
After treating the wound, Nightingale looked up at Ye Liangchen, her cheeks slightly flushed, then she quickly turned around and disappeared into the dense forest.
Ye Liangchen was left alone, stroking his chin, lost in thought.
“This girl is quite interesting…”
As for Sasuke, Ye Liangchen did not report his modification of the mechanism to Kakashi and Kai.
He pulled Sasuke aside and warned him in a serious tone: “Sasuke, I know you have something against me, but using this kind of means to compete will only make you look weaker. I hope you can become a truly strong person, not a guy who can only play tricks.”
Sasuke was stunned. He didn’t expect Ye Liangchen to be so magnanimous and not report him.
The other Genin also admired Ye Liangchen’s tolerance and cast admiring glances at him.
“Ye Liangchen, what a real man!” There was a burst of admiration from the crowd.
After dealing with these things, Ye Liangchen continued to explore the test site.
He discovered a hidden passage, the entrance obscured by dense vines that could easily be missed if one was not looking carefully.
This passage seems to lead to an important place.
Ye Liangchen took a deep breath and pushed aside the vines…
055. The truth is clear (old version)
Ye Liangchen took a deep breath and stepped into the passage without hesitation.
A cold and damp smell hit me in the face. It was pitch dark in the passage, with only the flickering fluorescent moss on the wall providing a faint light.
It was eerily quiet, with only the sound of his own breathing and heartbeat echoing.
“Oh, that’s it?” Ye Liangchen’s mouth curled up with a hint of disdain. This gloomy environment was simply child’s play for him.
Back then, he was a man who bravely entered the haunted house alone. What could a mere passage do to him?
The passage became narrower and narrower, and the walls on both sides kept approaching, as if to swallow him up.
Various traps began to appear, with poison needles, shurikens, and even detonating talismans shooting out from the walls from time to time.
Ye Liangchen was as light as a swallow, dodging left and right, easily avoiding these attacks.
“You dare to show off your skills in front of an expert?” Ye Liangchen complained while quickening his pace.
As you go deeper, the mechanisms in the passage become more and more complicated. There are not only physical attacks, but also traps that release various ninjutsu.
Fire escape, water escape, earth escape, all kinds of ninjutsu bombarded Ye Liangchen one after another, making him overwhelmed.
“Oh my god, are you serious?” Ye Liangchen felt a little tired, and his chakra consumption began to increase.
But he did not give up, instead he became even more excited.
This is the challenge he wants!
He gritted his teeth, mobilized all the chakra in his body, and increased his speed to the extreme.
His figure turned into an afterimage in the passage, dodging various attacks.
His clothes were soaked with sweat, but he didn’t care.
“The truth is just ahead!” Ye Liangchen said silently in his heart, cheering himself up.
Finally, he saw the end of the passage, where a huge stone door stood, engraved with mysterious runes.
“Finally here!” Ye Liangchen took a deep breath and was about to push open the stone door…
“It seems that you are more powerful than I thought.” A cold voice suddenly sounded.
“Hey, are you forming a group to gain experience for me?” Ye Liangchen looked at the dozen or so men in black who suddenly appeared, with a playful smile on his face.
These guys had their faces covered, leaving only their eyes exposed. They exuded a cold murderous aura and it was obvious at first glance that they were not good people.
“Boy, you are so arrogant!” The leading man in black spoke in a hoarse voice, with his shuriken flashing coldly.
“Same here.” Ye Liangchen shrugged and assumed a fighting stance.
The battle is about to begin!
The men in black pounced on Ye Liangchen ferociously like a group of hungry wolves.
Shurikens, kunai, explosive tags, and all kinds of hidden weapons attacked like an overwhelming force.
Ye Liangchen did not dare to be careless. Relying on his flexible body and super reaction speed, he shuttled between the attacks. Every normal attack made the chakra in his body slightly enhanced.
“That’s all?” Ye Liangchen sneered disdainfully after dodging a wave of attacks.
“Your attacks are like an old lady embroidering, so soft and powerless!”
The leader of the men in black looked gloomy, obviously angered by Ye Liangchen’s attitude. “Form a formation!”
The men in black quickly changed their formation, surrounded Ye Liangchen in the middle, and launched an attack in a coordinated manner.
Their attacks were continuous like the tide, making it difficult for Ye Liangchen to resist.
“Interesting.” Ye Liangchen felt the pain coming from his body, but a smile still hung on his lips.
“But you’re still a long way from defeating me!”
He took a deep breath, mobilized the chakra in his body, and punched the man in black like raindrops.
Each seemingly ordinary attack contained powerful force, causing the man in black to suffer unbearable pain.
Kakashi, hiding in the dark, watching Ye Liangchen fighting, couldn’t help but worry for him.
“This kid is really a monster. He is just a Genin, but he can burst out such powerful strength.”
The battle lasted for a long time, and Ye Liangchen was covered with wounds, but he still stood.
He discovered that although these men in black cooperated well with each other, their attack methods were single and lacked variety.
“I’ve found your weakness!” A gleam of light flashed in Ye Liangchen’s eyes. He seized the opportunity and used all his strength to use the “Millennium Kill”!
“Ah!” The leader of the men in black let out a scream and the formation collapsed instantly.
Ye Liangchen seized the opportunity, pursued the victory, and knocked down all the remaining men in black.
He stood among the wreckage of the enemy, like a god of war, emitting a powerful aura.
“It’s over.” Ye Liangchen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and showed a bright smile.
Suddenly, a voice broke the silence, “Liangchen-kun…”
Ino and the Anbu female ninja rushed to Ye Liangchen almost at the same time, both of them with worry written all over their faces.
Ino was holding a bandage and ointment in her hands, her eyes slightly red, and she said in a crying voice: “Liangchen-kun, are you okay? Are you seriously injured?” Although the Anbu female ninja did not speak, the concern in her eyes was no less than Ino’s. She skillfully took out some high-grade medicinal materials from the medical bag she carried with her, preparing to heal Ye Liangchen.
“Hey, hey, hey, don’t push, don’t push, let me go first!” Ino pushed the Anbu female ninja away, with a hint of jealousy in her tone.
The female ninja from the Anbu was not to be outdone. She pushed Ino aside with her backhand and said coldly, “Your medical ninjutsu is too poor. Let me do it.”
The two of them were arguing with each other, neither of them giving in. Ye Liangchen looked at them jealously and felt neither knowing whether to laugh or cry.
He felt a burning pain in the wound, but the pain was far less than the warmth he felt in his heart at the moment.
There was a complex, sweet and ambiguous atmosphere all around, and the air seemed to be filled with pink bubbles.
Cough, cough, Ye Liangchen coughed twice, breaking the slightly awkward atmosphere.
“My two beauties, there’s no need to fight. My little injury is nothing.” As he spoke, he took the ointment from Ino’s hand and applied it casually on the wound.
“Hiss…it really hurts a bit.”
Just when everyone thought Ye Liangchen would be immersed in the joy of becoming a Chunin, he suddenly said, “Everyone, I have an important discovery to tell you.” His tone was serious.
Everyone suddenly became quiet and looked at him in confusion.
“This Chunin Exam is actually a conspiracy!” Ye Liangchen said in a firm tone, revealing the truth he had discovered.
He points out that the enemies in this exam are not ordinary thieves, but spies from other villages whose purpose is to steal information from Konoha Village and may even undermine the stability of the village.
His words exploded among the crowd like thunder.
I originally thought it was just a simple test, but I didn’t expect there was such a huge conspiracy behind it.
Everyone looked at Ye Liangchen with admiration. His calmness and wisdom made people look at him with new respect.
“This conspiracy may just be the beginning…” Ye Liangchen’s voice was low, and his tone was full of worry.
His words made the entire Konoha Village fall into deep thought. Everyone realized that the road ahead was still long and full of unknown challenges.
And Ye Liangchen will continue to play an important role in future crises.
“Liangchen…” Kakashi slowly approached, hesitating to speak.
056. New Path of Chunin (Old Version)
Kakashi patted Ye Liangchen on the shoulder, with a hint of helplessness in his tone: “Congratulations, you have officially become a Chunin. But…” He paused, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, “A new test is coming.”
Upon hearing this, the surrounding ninjas cast complicated looks at him.
Envy, jealousy, worry…
Various emotions intertwined together, covering Ye Liangchen like an invisible net.
He felt the pressure in the air, and his heart was pounding like a drum.
“Hey, I knew there is no free lunch in the world.” Ye Liangchen complained in his heart, but he remained calm on his face and instead showed a confident smile.
“Come on, who’s afraid of who? I, Ye Liangchen, am fearless!” He strode towards Kakashi with a burning fighting spirit in his eyes, like a walking flame, ready to ignite all challenges at any time.
“For this mission, you need to protect an important person.” Kakashi said seriously, pointing to an old man with white hair and beard who was leaning on a cane not far away. “This is the elder of Konoha Village. He holds many important secrets.”
“Wow, this old man looks like a big shot!” Ye Liangchen exclaimed in his heart, and at the same time felt the burden on his shoulders became heavier.
Uchiha Sasuke, hiding in the crowd, saw it all.
He clenched his teeth, “Why does he always get such important tasks?” he muttered in a low voice, his fists clenched so tightly that his nails almost dug into his flesh.
Sasuke’s gaze quietly shifted to a ninja wearing black clothes and a conical hat at the edge of the crowd.
The two men’s eyes met, and a sinister plan took shape in silence.
The black-clad ninja nodded slightly, a sneer appearing on the corner of his mouth, as if foreshadowing that a storm was about to come.
“Okay, let’s get going without further ado!” Ye Liangchen dusted himself off, turned to the old man and said, “Grandpa, please give me your guidance!”
The old man smiled slightly, with a wise light in his eyes: “Young man, you are very energetic! Let’s go.”
Ye Liangchen supported the old man and turned to walk towards the street of Konoha Village.
Seeing this, Sasuke showed a cold smile and followed quietly…
“Remember, our goal is…” Sasuke lowered his voice and said to the black-clad ninja beside him.
“Old man, please slow down. The street planning of Konoha is not very user-friendly. It’s full of potholes.” Ye Liangchen supported the old man and complained about the infrastructure construction of Konoha.
Suddenly, several shurikens flew through the sky and headed straight for the old man!
“Oh my god! A sneak attack? I can’t afford that!” Ye Liangchen was quick-witted and threw the old man to the ground. His shuriken was nailed to the wall behind him, making a “clang clang” sound.
Several men in black rushed out from the darkness, and shot shurikens at Ye Liangchen like raindrops.
“That’s it? Just a small scene!” Ye Liangchen slid to avoid the attack and picked up the barbecue grill of a roadside vendor and used it as a shield.
“Oh, what a pity for this barbecue…” He muttered to himself, but his hands were decisive and he blocked the shurikens one by one.
When the men in black saw that their sneak attack failed, they became angry and rushed forward with their kunai drawn.
Ye Liangchen dodged left and right, wielding the barbecue grill in his hands with great force, as if he had unleashed an invincible power.
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh~”, Ye Liangchen imitated the sound effects of ninjutsu, and the barbecue grill hit the man in black, making a dull “bang bang” sound.
“That’s it? That’s it? You can’t even break my defense, and you still want to sneak attack me? Go home and raise pigs!” Ye Liangchen said sarcastically.
The enemy commander hiding in the dark looked gloomy when he saw this.
“Waste! A bunch of waste!” He growled and sent out stronger ninjas.
“Go ahead! Make sure you take down the old man!”
Several ninjas armed with sharp blades joined the battle, and Ye Liangchen suddenly felt the pressure doubled.
He fought and retreated, using the surrounding buildings and crowds as cover to avoid enemy attacks.
Seeing this, the surrounding villagers screamed and fled, and the scene was in chaos.
In the dark, an ANBU female ninja wearing an animal mask was watching the battle closely.
Seeing Ye Liangchen gradually falling into a disadvantage, she couldn’t help but clench her fists, a trace of worry rising in her heart.
Ye Liangchen seized the opportunity and shouted, “Rasengan…improved version! Barbecue smell!” He concentrated his chakra on the barbecue grill, which spun at high speed, emitting the aroma of barbecue and powerful energy fluctuations.
“Boom!” The barbecue grill had great power and blew the enemy commander away, knocking down a wall. His life or death was unknown.
“Great! Let’s call it a day!” Ye Liangchen clapped his hands in a cool manner, and the surrounding villagers cheered upon seeing this.
“Well done, Ye Liangchen!” “Ye Liangchen is so awesome!”
Listening to the praises from all around him, Ye Liangchen felt filled with a sense of accomplishment, as if he was bathed in holy light.
“Hey, low-key, low-key, basic operation, basic operation…” He said low-key, but the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but rise.
Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking air…
“Be careful!” A clear voice rang out among the crowd.
Ino pushed through the crowd and ran to Ye Liangchen like a nimble deer.
“Ye Liangchen! Are you okay?” She grabbed Ye Liangchen’s hand, looked him up and down, her tone full of worry.
Those bright big eyes were full of concern, as if they wanted to scan Ye Liangchen from head to toe to make sure he was unharmed.
Ye Liangchen’s hand was tightly held by Ino’s soft little hand, and a warm feeling surged into his heart.
“Oh, it’s okay, it’s just a small scene, just sprinkle some water~” He comforted Ino with a smile, while pulling his hand back unnoticeably and scratching his head.
The female ninja from the Anbu also came to Ye Liangchen and kept her eyes on him for a moment. She stood there silently without saying a word, but the concern in her eyes was more sincere than any words.
There was a subtle sense of ambiguity in the air, which made Ye Liangchen feel a little embarrassed.
“Sasuke, you’d better behave yourself and don’t do anything weird. I won’t pursue it this time, but there won’t be a next time!” Ye Liangchen turned his head to look at Sasuke who was hiding in the crowd and warned him in a serious tone.
Sasuke was stunned. He didn’t expect Ye Liangchen to be so generous. He felt mixed emotions and a sense of guilt arose in his heart.
The surrounding ninjas also expressed their admiration for Ye Liangchen’s tolerance and magnanimity, and cast approving glances at him.
Just when Ye Liangchen thought the crisis was over and was about to take the old man away, he suddenly noticed something strange about the old man.
He took a closer look and found a tiny tracking mark hidden in the folds of the old man’s clothes!
“Oh no!” Ye Liangchen cried out in his heart, a chill running from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
He knew that the enemy must have a follow-up plan, and this tracking mark was the key to their next move.
“Grandpa, we have to change places…” Ye Liangchen lowered his voice and said in a serious tone.
057. Chasing Shadows (Old Version)
Ye Liangchen grabbed the old man and hid in a secluded alley.
The alley is dark and damp, with a faint musty smell. The walls on both sides are mottled and the paint is peeling off like psoriasis. At first glance, it is a typical example of the “dirty, messy and poor” version of the Naruto world.
“Grandpa, I’m sorry.” Ye Liangchen helped the old man sit down against the wall, then squatted down and began to study the tracking mark.
The mark was only the size of a fingernail, dark red in color, and emitted faint chakra fluctuations, looking very much like a non-mainstream ornament left behind by a QQ Dance player.
The alley was quiet, with only the sound of Ye Liangchen’s gentle breathing.
His brows were furrowed and his eyes were focused, as if he was defusing a time bomb, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
He knew that behind this small mark, there might be deadly danger hidden.
This feeling is just like playing PUBG and landing without a gun, with footsteps all around you, which is suffocating.
The structure of this tracking mark was more complicated than he had imagined. Not only did it use special chakra encryption technology, it also incorporated some ancient runes. It was like the final question in a final exam.
Ye Liangchen felt that his brain cells were dying rapidly.
To unlock this thing, you need to find a specific combination of herbs and ninjutsu, which is even harder than drawing an SSR card!
Ye Liangchen complained crazily in his heart that fate always liked to arrange some hell-level difficulty copies for him.
At this moment, a communication eagle fluttered over and brought bad news: Uchiha Sasuke was actually spreading rumors outside, saying that Ye Liangchen could not protect the old man!
“Good man, this guy is being sarcastic to me here?” Ye Liangchen clenched his fists so hard that they made a clattering sound, and a surge of anger rushed from his dantian to the top of his head.
Under the double pressure, he was not discouraged but became even more motivated.
“Just wait and see. Not only will I remove this damn mark, but I will also let Sasuke know what true strength is!” Ye Liangchen
He looked up at the dim sky and took a deep breath, “Grandpa, please wait here, I’ll be back soon!” Ye Liangchen left the alley and rushed into the bustling crowd like an arrow.
He needed to find several special herbs that only grew in certain hidden locations outside of Konoha Village.
As soon as I left the village, a murderous atmosphere rushed towards me.
not good!
There is an ambush!
Ye Liangchen’s heart was filled with alarm bells. His many years of experience in playing “Chicken Dinner” told him that he would be killed as soon as he landed.
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!” The sound of kunai breaking through the air was endless, like the notes of death urging people to die.
Ye Liangchen’s figure was ghostly, and he dodged wave after wave of attacks by twisting and turning.
In his eyes, these small ninjas were nothing more than moving targets.
“Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!” A burly ninja blew out a huge fireball, and a scorching breath hit my face.
Ye Liangchen dodged with a sliding tackle, and the smell of the burnt ground irritated his nostrils.
“That’s all?” Ye Liangchen’s lips curled up in disdain.
However, at this moment, a strange figure appeared quietly.
He was a ninja wearing a black cloak. He made seals with his hands and muttered something.
The surrounding scene began to distort, and Ye Liangchen felt as if he was in a horrible nightmare.
Giant spiders fell from the sky, rotting corpses piled up like mountains, and a sickening stench filled the air.
Fear surged into his heart like a tide, and Ye Liangchen felt his consciousness gradually becoming blurred.
“You think you can trap me with just this little illusion?” Ye Liangchen gritted his teeth, and his strong willpower allowed him to break free from the illusion.
“I found you!” Ye Liangchen locked his eyes on the illusion ninja and pounced on him like a cheetah.
“Bang!” With a dull sound, the illusion ninja was knocked to the ground.
Ye Liangchen searched a scroll from him, which recorded the method to crack the tracking mark.
“I see!” Ye Liangchen
In the distance, Uchiha Sasuke saw all of this, and the flame of jealousy burned in his heart.
“Damn it! Why can he always resolve crises so easily?”
Ye Liangchen put the scroll in his arms and turned to leave.
He didn’t know that in the dark, a pair of eyes were silently watching him…
“Mission completed well, kid.” A cold voice came from the shadows.
The Anbu female ninja emerged from the shadows and walked silently to Ye Liangchen’s side, as if she appeared out of thin air.
She handed Ye Liangchen a handkerchief gently. Her eyes reminded Ye Liangchen of the way the little girls in his class looked at him when he was in elementary school, which was so pure and innocent.
Ye Liangchen took the handkerchief, and a faint fragrance came to his nose, like the scent of some unknown flower mixed with a little bit of sunshine.
The handkerchief is soft and delicate, feels comfortable, and is as smooth as a baby’s skin.
He wiped the sweat off his face casually, and his heart moved slightly.
This girl is quite interesting!
The air around seemed to become ambiguous, filled with pink bubbles.
Ye Liangchen didn’t take the rumors spread by Sasuke seriously at all.
He is not the kind of person who would be easily broken by a few sour words.
Resolving the tracking marks on the elders is the real business!
He was like a cheating player, overcoming all the obstacles along the way, and finally found the last key item to remove the mark – a colorful Ganoderma lucidum growing on a steep cliff.
This Ganoderma lucidum emits a faint fluorescence, and it is obvious at first glance that it is not an ordinary item. It is as dazzling as the legendary equipment dropped in the game.
Ye Liangchen carefully picked the Ganoderma lucidum and prepared to return to the old man.
However, at this moment, he found that Uchiha Sasuke and a group of ninjas blocked his way aggressively.
This scene reminded Ye Liangchen of the time when he was playing a multiplayer online MOBA game and five people on the opposite side collectively tried to catch him.
“Ye Liangchen, stop right there!” Sasuke’s tone was full of provocation, as childish as a primary school student showing off his new toy to others.
Ye Liangchen looked at Sasuke and the ninjas he brought with him, feeling somewhat confused and angry…
058. Glory to the Top (Old Version)
Ye Liangchen looked at Sasuke and the group of “shrimp soldiers and crab generals” he brought with him, feeling confused and annoyed.
This kid, instead of practicing hard, learns other people’s trick of “blocking the bridge”?
The air around them froze instantly, as if even the wind had stopped, and a murderous atmosphere filled the air.
The look in Sasuke’s eyes was like the “taunt” skill in a game, full of provocation.
Ye Liangchen knew that he had to pass this level, as the tracking mark on the elder was still waiting for him to remove!
He took a deep breath, his chakra surged, and he prepared for battle. It felt like a thrilling boss battle about to begin while playing a game!
“Sasuke, what are you doing?” Ye Liangchen asked in a nonchalant manner, trying to ease the atmosphere with words.
However, Sasuke didn’t buy it. He sneered, “Ye Liangchen, your luck is over! Today, I will let you know who is the real strong one!”
Before he finished speaking, Sasuke formed seals with his hands and a powerful chakra wave burst out instantly.
“Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!” A huge fireball roared towards Ye Liangchen, and the scorching temperature seemed to devour everything around it.
Ye Liangchen was quick-witted and quick-handed. He dodged sideways, and the fireball flew past the corner of his clothes and blasted a deep charred pit on the ground.
“Oh my god, this is serious!” Ye Liangchen thought to himself, it seemed like this kid was determined to confront him.
He didn’t intend to confront Sasuke head-on. After all, it is better to resolve a feud than to create one. What’s more, he was in a hurry to remove the tracking mark on the elder.
So, he dodged Sasuke’s attacks while looking for a breakthrough, just like playing a MOBA game, using his movement and skills to avoid the enemy’s pursuit and waiting for an opportunity to counterattack.
However, Sasuke was like a plaster that couldn’t be shaken off, pressing forward step by step, with every move deadly.
His Sharingan spun rapidly, as if able to predict Ye Liangchen’s every move.
Ye Liangchen had no choice but to fight back.
He gathered his chakra and threw a punch, hitting Sasuke in the stomach.
Sasuke groaned and staggered back a few steps.
“Cough cough…” Sasuke covered his stomach, his face pale, obviously injured seriously.
But he still refused to give up. This boy is quite stubborn!
Ye Liangchen sighed inwardly, this was simply a typical case of “refusing to admit defeat”.
He didn’t really want to hurt Sasuke, he just wanted him to give up.
“Sasuke,” Ye Liangchen spoke slowly, with a hint of helplessness in his tone, “You…” “Sasuke, listen to me…” Before Ye Liangchen could finish his words, Sasuke suddenly jumped up, quickly forming seals with his hands, and a strange chakra wave spread around him.
“Chidori!” The shrill bird cry pierced the air, and Sasuke turned into a flash of lightning and rushed straight towards Ye Liangchen.
This kid has used his ultimate move!
Ye Liangchen was shocked. He had seen the power of “Chidori” before and he definitely couldn’t resist it head-on.
He tapped his toes lightly and dodged like a ghost, barely avoiding Sasuke’s attack.
Sasuke’s attack missed, leaving a deep scratch on the ground.
The air around them was filled with a burnt smell, which showed how powerful this move was.
Ye Liangchen secretly felt lucky, because if he had been hit, he would have been seriously injured if not killed.
“Sasuke, calm down!” Ye Liangchen tried to persuade him again, but Sasuke had completely lost his mind at this time, his eyes were red, like a wild beast.
He attacked again, each move was deadly and his speed was astonishingly fast, as if he had turned on a “speed-up cheat”.
Ye Liangchen did not dare to be careless and dodged with full concentration, as if he was playing a music game with a full sense of rhythm.
The surrounding ninjas were attracted by this battle. They held their breath and watched nervously. The air seemed to freeze.
Kakashi and Might Guy also arrived at the scene, their brows furrowed, as if they were worried about something.
Sasuke’s attacks became more and more fierce, and his chakra consumption became greater and greater.
He gasped
Ye Liangchen seized the opportunity, flashed behind Sasuke, and chopped him on the back of the neck with a knife.
Sasuke’s eyes went dark and he passed out.
Ye Liangchen looked at Sasuke lying on the ground with mixed feelings.
He did not humiliate Sasuke, but helped him up and said softly: “Sasuke, you are strong, but you need to face your shortcomings.”
The surrounding ninjas were full of respect for Ye Liangchen’s actions. They did not expect Ye Liangchen to be so tolerant and generous.
Ye Liangchen turned to look at Kakashi, his eyes full of determination: “Teacher Kakashi, can I remove the tracking mark on the elder now?”
Kakashi nodded.
Ye Liangchen turned and left, his figure disappearing into the night.
He knew in his heart that this was just the beginning, and greater challenges were waiting for him…
“Wait,” Hongdou suddenly said, with a hint of hesitation in her tone, “There is one last test…”
Ye Liangchen was as light as a swallow and quickly returned to the elder.
He used his chakra expertly to remove the tracking mark hidden on the elder.
The moment the mark disappeared, Ino and the ANBU female ninja flew over and hugged him tightly like two happy little birds.
“Ye Liangchen, you are so awesome!” Ino’s excited voice rang in his ears, and Ye Liangchen could even feel the softness of her chest.
Although the Anbu female ninja didn’t say anything, the intensity of her hug was no less than Ino’s. It seemed that under her cold mask, she also hid a passionate heart.
Ye Liangchen was surrounded by two beauties, his old face turned red. This Shura-like scene made him a little overwhelmed, but a warm current surged in his heart.
There was an ambiguous and joyful atmosphere in the air, as if celebrating the victory.
After completing the test, Ye Liangchen did not indulge in joy.
He found Kakashi and Might Guy and reported the abnormalities he discovered during the mission.
“Teachers, I have found some suspicious clues related to the Sand Village…” He elaborated on his findings and speculations in detail.
Kakashi and Might Guy were initially immersed in the joy of Ye Liangchen completing the test, but after hearing his report, their faces instantly became serious.
“Sand Village… Could it be…” Kakashi pondered, while Might Guy looked solemn and patted Ye Liangchen’s shoulder vigorously: “Well done, kid! Not only are you strong, but you are also very observant!”
Konoha Village held a grand celebration ceremony for the newly promoted Chunin Ye Liangchen.
Cheers and blessings rang out one after another, making the scene very lively.
However, surrounded by the crowd, Ye Liangchen seemed to be worried.
The doubts about the Sand Village lingered in his mind. His eyes were determined and he made a secret decision in his heart.
“I have to go to the Sand Village…” he whispered to himself.
This sentence is like throwing a stone into a calm lake, causing ripples and setting the stage for the following story.
In the dead of night, Ye Liangchen quietly left the room…
059. The Journey to the Sand Village (Old Version)
The night was as dark as ink, shrouding the Konoha Village. Only a few dim lights were still stubbornly emitting light.
Ye Liangchen’s figure, like an arrow shot from a bow, left the village silently, without taking away a cloud, but taking away his restless heart.
Looking back at the gradually blurred Konoha Village, Ye Liangchen felt mixed emotions, including reluctance to leave, longing for the future, and a sense of responsibility as a “working man”.
He knew that this cooperation mission to the Sand Village was not a simple “tourism”, but a major event related to the future strategic cooperation between Konoha Village and the Sand Village.
He took a deep breath, cleared away all the distracting thoughts in his mind, and replaced them with a determined look of “doing business”.
“Sand Village, here I come!” Ye Liangchen secretly encouraged himself.
His feet moved so fast that he disappeared into the night, leaving only a barely perceptible chakra fluctuation in the air.
After a “long journey”, Ye Liangchen finally arrived at the border of the Sand Village.
As soon as he stepped into this land covered with yellow sand, he felt an unfriendly breath coming towards him.
He saw a group of people, led by an old man with gray hair and a gloomy face, who was staring at him fiercely, as if he was looking at an “alien species”.
No need to guess, this old man must be the elder of the Sand Village, a representative of the conservative faction.
“Are you the Ye Liangchen sent by Konoha?” The elder’s voice sounded particularly harsh, like the friction of sand.
His tone was full of disdain, as if to say, “You? Are you worthy enough to come to our Sand Village?”
“That’s right.” Although Ye Liangchen had a thousand horses galloping through his heart, he still remained polite on the surface.
After all, he came here with a mission, not to quarrel with anyone.
“Humph, the people of Konoha are really getting worse and worse. Do they look down on our Sand Village by sending a brat like you?” The elder continued in a sarcastic tone.
The several Sand Village ninjas behind him also laughed mockingly, their eyes full of provocation.
“Elder, I am here for cooperation, not to listen to your sarcasm.” Although Ye Liangchen’s tone was still flat, people who were familiar with him knew that this was the calm before the storm.
“Cooperation? Just you? Unless you can show enough strength to prove Konoha’s sincerity!” The elder sneered, with a cunning light in his eyes, “How about this, you show us a Konoha ninjutsu first, so that we can open our eyes?”
The corner of Ye Liangchen’s mouth twitched slightly. It was obvious that this old man was trying to make things difficult for him and test his strength.
He knew that now was not the time to act impulsively. He had to stay calm, calm down, and think about how to break the impasse. So he pretended to be thoughtful and said, “Well…”
“Well…” Ye Liangchen deliberately lengthened his tone, scratched his head, and looked embarrassed.
A smug smile appeared on the elder’s lips, as if he had already seen Ye Liangchen’s embarrassment.
The surrounding Sand Village ninjas were also whispering and snickering, waiting to see the show.
However, Ye Liangchen’s next words surprised everyone.
“Ninjutsu is not for showing off your skills, but for protecting what you cherish.” He raised his head with a firm gaze and a serious tone, like a teacher imparting knowledge.
“Konoha’s ninjutsu is all about ‘will’ and ‘bonds’. Every time you perform a ninjutsu, it’s to protect your companions, to protect the village, and to protect the justice in your heart!”
His words stunned everyone present.
I originally thought that he would directly demonstrate some earth-shattering ninjutsu, but I didn’t expect that he would actually talk about “life philosophy”.
The smile on the elder’s face froze, and he felt as uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly.
Even Kanjiurou, who had always been suspicious of Ye Liangchen, glanced sideways, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
This kid is quite interesting!
At this moment, the sound of hurried horse hooves broke the eerie silence.
In the distance, they saw a group of strangely dressed bandits riding camels, rushing towards them in the dust.
These bandits, all of them looked ferocious and armed with machetes, were obviously habitual criminals in the border area.
“Oh no! It’s border bandits!” exclaimed a Sand Village ninja.
“Hmph, you’ve come at the right time. We can use them to test the quality of this Konoha kid!” The elder sneered, with a sinister light flashing in his eyes.
Before everyone could react, Ye Liangchen had already rushed out like a cheetah.
He clenched his fists and took the initiative to face the bandits who were rushing in front.
With a dull thud, Ye Liangchen’s fist hit the bandit’s chest hard.
The bandit didn’t even have time to scream before he flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, knocking down a group of camels.
This punch not only made the bandits panic, but also stunned all the ninjas of the Sand Village.
“This…what kind of strange power is this?” A young Sand Ninja couldn’t help but exclaimed.
Ye Liangchen didn’t give them time to be stunned. He kept punching like a perpetual motion machine.
Each punch was like a sledgehammer, hitting the bandits and forcing them to retreat.
The chakra in his body continued to increase with the number of attacks.
He was like a tireless god of war, wantonly reaping the lives of bandits on the battlefield.
At this moment, the bandits realized that they had hit a wall. This Genin from Konoha was simply a “human tank”!
“This kid… is something!” Maki muttered with his pupils shrinking slightly.
In the astonished eyes of the crowd, Ye Liangchen rushed towards the bandits again like a flash of lightning…
Ye Liangchen’s body was as fast as lightning, and he used both fists and feet, and every move was deadly.
The bandit leaders were like paper tigers in front of him and were vulnerable to any blow.
“Bang, bang, bang!” After a few muffled sounds, the bandit leaders fell to the ground, wailing one after another, and the scene was very embarrassing for a while.
The remaining bandits were so frightened upon seeing this that they dropped their weapons and armor and fled in panic. The scene was extremely chaotic.
“Fuck, this kid is too powerful!” The ninjas of the Sand Village were stunned and exclaimed.
Even Maki, who had been keeping a straight face, nodded. The elder’s face turned red. The contempt he had just shown was long gone, replaced by a hint of incredible surprise.
“Cough cough,” Ye Liangchen coughed twice and patted the dust off his body, looking calm and composed, as if he had just done something insignificant.
At this time, Temari walked up to Ye Liangchen and handed him a bottle of water with a little arrogance: “Here, for you.” But she secretly glanced at Ye Liangchen, her cheeks slightly flushed.
Ye Liangchen took the water, smiled and said thank you. There was a subtle atmosphere of ambiguity between the two of them, and the air seemed to be filled with the sour smell of love.
“Hmph, you’re quite capable, kid.” The elder snorted, with a barely perceptible admiration in his tone.
After entering the Sand Village, Ye Liangchen received a warm welcome, and his heroic deeds had already spread throughout the village.
However, Sakura Haruno and Ino, who were far away in Konoha Village, heard rumors about the “intimate interaction” between Ye Liangchen and the female ninjas of the Sand Village, and they were immediately furious.
“What? That guy Ye Liangchen actually hooked up with a girl from the Sand Village?” Haruno Sakura stomped her feet in anger.
“Humph, I knew he was not a good guy!” Ino fanned the flames.
In the Sand Village, Ye Liangchen was preparing to attend the first mission meeting to be carried out together with the Sand Village ninjas.
He took a deep breath and opened the door of the conference room…
“Everyone, regarding this…”
060. The Way of Coordination (Old Version)
“Everyone, regarding the mission of protecting the caravan as it crosses the desert…” Ye Liangchen looked around. The conference room was filled with ninjas from the Sand Village. Each of them had a serious expression and the atmosphere was as heavy as solidified sand dunes.
“Ahem,” Ye Liangchen cleared his throat and continued, “My idea is that we split our troops into two groups. One group will launch a feint attack to attract the enemy, while the other group will secretly protect the caravan. We can take a two-pronged approach to ensure that nothing goes wrong.”
As soon as the words fell, the conference room exploded.
“A frontal feint? Do you think we are fools? Fighting those bandits head-on in the desert is simply courting death!” A burly ninja from the Sand Village shouted dissatisfiedly.
“That’s right. We, the ninjas of the Sand Village, have always been known for our concealment and surprise attacks. Frontal combat is not our strong point.” Another ninja echoed.
“But…” Ye Liangchen was about to explain when he was interrupted by another voice, “Konoha’s ninjas like to act like heroes and don’t know how to judge the situation.”
Ye Liangchen felt the veins on his forehead throbbing. Why were all the ninjas from the Sand Village so weird?
After the meeting, the ninjas from both sides began their first joint operation.
According to the plan, the ninjas from the Sand Village were responsible for secretly protecting the caravan, while the ninjas from Konoha were responsible for attracting the attention of the bandits.
However, due to the differences in combat styles between the two sides, problems arose at the outset of the operation.
The ninjas of the Sand Village hid too well, and the Konoha ninjas could not find their location at all, causing the plan to attract the enemy to be delayed.
“Hey, where are you ninjas from the Sand Village hiding? Come out and work!” a Konoha ninja shouted impatiently.
“Shut up! Do you want to attract the enemy here?” A ninja from the Sand Village poked his head out from behind the sand dune and shouted in a low voice.
“Damn, you are too timid. Aren’t they just a group of bandits? What are you afraid of?” The Konoha ninja retorted unconvinced.
The ninjas on both sides were arguing with each other.
Ye Liangchen was stuck in the middle, feeling like a sandwich, feeling uncomfortable on both sides.
Just then, Maki, who was in charge of supervising the mission, came over.
“What are you arguing about! Shut up!” he shouted sternly, “Now is not the time for internal strife. The most urgent task is to complete the mission!”
Everyone suddenly quieted down, but the atmosphere was still tense.
Ye Liangchen knew that if this problem was not solved, this mission would probably end in failure.
He took a deep breath, looked at the sun gradually setting in the sky, and said slowly: “It seems that I have to think of a way…”
Ye Liangchen scratched his head, and suddenly an idea came to him. He said, “Everyone, don’t be anxious. Listen to me. We, the Konoha ninjas, like to fight head-on, just like eating ramen, we want to eat it to our heart’s content! And you, the people of the Sand Village, are good at lurking and raiding, just like eating barbecue, you have to chew it slowly to taste the flavor. There is no difference between these two ways of eating, only whether they are suitable or not. What we have to do now is to combine ramen and barbecue into a luxurious set meal, so that the enemy will have a hard time!”
Although this metaphor was a bit crude, it was easy to understand and instantly made both parties on the verge of a tense situation burst out laughing.
The ninjas of the Sand Village also realized that their conservative strategy did limit the performance of the Konoha ninjas, and the Konoha ninjas also understood the tactical considerations of the Sand Village.
“Ye Liangchen is quite good at talking!” said a ninja from the Sand Village with a smile.
“Yeah, I didn’t expect he had this ability.” Another ninja echoed.
Even Maki, who was always serious, raised his lips slightly, obviously approving of Ye Liangchen’s coordination ability.
Just then, shouts of killing were heard in the distance.
“Enemy attack!” shouted a ninja on guard.
The bandits came back again, and this time they were well prepared. They rode on giant desert lizards, wielded special spears, and charged towards the caravan aggressively.
“Everyone be on alert!” Ye Liangchen shouted and rushed out first.
The kunai in his hand glowed coldly, and his figure shuttled through the enemy camp like a ghost.
“Wind Style: Air Training Bullet!” Temari was not to be outdone. She formed seals with her hands and a strong storm swept out, knocking to the ground several desert lizards in the front.
Ye Liangchen and Temari worked in perfect harmony, one with melee damage and the other with long-range control, and they suppressed the bandits’ offensive firmly.
The battle scenes are intense and exciting, with swords flashing and sand blowing in the sky.
Suddenly, Ye Liangchen noticed that the spear in the bandit’s hand seemed a little strange…
He narrowed his eyes, observed carefully, and whispered to Temari beside him: “Temari, look at their spears…”
Ye Liangchen squinted and found that the bandit’s spear was not made of ordinary metal, but some special plant fiber.
“This thing is afraid of fire!” He reacted instantly and shouted, “Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!” A huge fireball burst out of his mouth and pounced on the bandits like a roaring fire dragon.
The dry plant fibers would ignite when in contact with fire, instantly turning into a sea of fire. The bandits fled in panic, crying for their parents, and the scene was extremely chaotic.
“So awesome!” The ninjas from Temari Sand Village also cast approving glances. The elder stroked his beard, thinking: This Konoha boy does not seem to have a false reputation.
Even Kanjiurou, who had always been resentful of Ye Liangchen, had to admit his strength.
After the battle, the sun sets, dyeing the desert a golden red.
Ye Liangchen and Temari sat side by side on the sand dune, admiring the magnificent scenery.
“It’s all thanks to you today.” Temari said softly, with a hint of tenderness in her tiredness.
Ye Liangchen scratched his head and chuckled: “It’s all right. Teammates should help each other.” A breeze blew by, and Temari’s hair fluttered gently, and she inadvertently leaned on Ye Liangchen’s shoulder.
Ye Liangchen’s body stiffened and his cheeks flushed slightly, but he did not dodge.
In the distance, several ninjas from the Sand Village were secretly observing them with auntie smiles on their faces, and a hint of pink filled the air.
However, Sakura Haruno and Ino, who were far away in Konoha Village, felt completely different at this moment.
“I heard that Ye Liangchen is very close to a female ninja from the Sand Village…” Ino said mysteriously.
“Hmph, I knew he had bad intentions!” Sakura stomped her feet angrily, completely jealous.
In the Sand Village, Ye Liangchen received a new mission as soon as he returned to his residence.
“The next mission is to enter the secret training base of the Sand Village to exchange ninjutsu…” Maki’s tone was serious, as if he had something to hide.
Ye Liangchen’s heart trembled, and an uneasy premonition came to his mind.
He pushed open the heavy door of the base, and an ancient and mysterious atmosphere rushed towards him…
“This place…” Ye Liangchen muttered to himself.
061. Fusion of Ninjutsu (Old Version)
Pushing open the heavy door, an ancient and mysterious atmosphere hits you in the face, as if a giant beast that has been sleeping for thousands of years is slowly opening its eyes.
The interior of the base was dark and spacious, with a faint smell of gravel in the air, vaguely mixed with a hint of solemnity.
Ancient runes are carved on the towering stone walls, flickering with a faint light, like eyes staring at intruders.
Ye Liangchen stepped in, and the sound of his footsteps echoed in the empty base, sounding particularly clear.
Looking around, he saw that the ninjas of the Sand Village were on high alert, with sharp eyes, like cheetahs ready to pounce.
He knew that a fierce ninjutsu competition was about to begin. It was not only a contest of skills, but also a clash of strength between villages.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Liangchen slowly mobilized the chakra in his body. A warm current surged through his body, making him feel unprecedented strength.
He clenched his fists, his eyes determined, ready to go all out.
“Ninja from Konoha, let me see what you can do!” Kankuro broke the silence first. He formed seals with his hands and a powerful chakra wave burst out from his body.
“That’s exactly what I want!” Ye Liangchen’s mouth corners slightly raised, with excitement flashing in his eyes.
He knew that Kankuro wanted to test his strength, but he was fearless and instead became even more eager to try.
Kankuro’s figure flashed like a ghost, and the sharp blade of the puppet in his hand cut through the air, making a sharp whistling sound.
Ye Liangchen responded calmly. He dodged the attacks nimbly while observing Kankuro’s every move and analyzing the characteristics of his ninjutsu.
The two men fought back and forth, and the battle was very fierce.
The air in the base seemed to freeze, and the tense atmosphere was suffocating.
Every collision was accompanied by a deafening sound, flying sand and dust.
“Interesting…” Ye Liangchen whispered, “But this is just the beginning!”
“Hey, this puppetry is so fancy!” Ye Liangchen did a backflip and easily avoided the puppet’s claws, and did not forget to sneer when he landed.
He quickly formed seals with both hands, and chakra surged in his body like a surging river, “Konoha Style: Shadow Clone Technique!”
Bang!
Three identical Ye Liangchen appeared on the field, each of them assumed a different fighting posture and surrounded Kanjiro.
This is one of Konoha’s most basic ninjutsu, but in Ye Liangchen’s hands it was used in new ways.
“Damn, why does this clone technique feel a little different?” Kankuro suddenly felt the pressure doubled. The puppet’s attack became slow, and he was a little flustered for a moment.
“Let me show you what real ‘nuclear’ power is!” Ye Liangchen grinned, quickly forming seals with both hands in front of his chest, “Self-created Ninjutsu: Chakra Burst Fist!”
I saw rich chakra condensed in his fist, and the blue light was as dazzling as a small sun.
When a punch was thrown, the air seemed to be torn apart, making a sharp explosion sound.
“Shit! What the hell is this?” Kankuro exclaimed. The puppet was directly blown away by the powerful impact force, hit the stone wall heavily and fell apart.
The surrounding Sand Village ninjas were immediately shocked. They had never seen such a domineering ninjutsu.
“Konoha’s ninjutsu is so terrifying!”
Ye Liangchen did not stop attacking. He took advantage of the victory and launched several shadow clones again, completely suppressing Kanjiro.
“Stop hitting me, stop hitting me, I surrender!” Kankuro raised his hands in embarrassment and begged for mercy loudly.
“You’re giving up right now?” Ye Liangchen chuckled and canceled his clone technique.
He knew that this was just an appetizer and the real show was yet to come.
“Next, it’s my turn!” A cold voice came. Temari, holding the three-star fan, jumped lightly and came to the center of the field.
“Oh? Is the beauty finally going to make a move?” Ye Liangchen’s eyes lit up, and he rubbed his hands, thinking to himself, it’s time to show her real skills.
Temari didn’t waste any time and directly waved the Three Star Fan. The powerful wind chakra burst out instantly, forming a series of sharp wind blades that whistled towards Ye Liangchen.
Ye Liangchen’s body flashed, and he dodged the wind blade as nimbly as a falling leaf. At the same time, he formed seals with his hands and used a common ninjutsu of Konoha, which collided with Temari’s wind escape, bursting into brilliant light.
The battle between the two instantly entered a white-hot stage, like two dancing butterflies, or like two dazzling lightning bolts, constantly interweaving in the base, going back and forth, and it was difficult to tell who was the better winner.
“The fight between these two is so damn exciting!” The ninjas on the side couldn’t help but sigh. They all watched intently, afraid of missing any details.
Ye Liangchen became more and more courageous as the battle went on. He kept adjusting his tactics, dodging Temari’s attacks while looking for opportunities to counterattack.
His eyes became brighter and brighter, and a meaningful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Temari looked at Ye Liangchen’s smile and suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart. Could it be that he had a backup plan?
“Next…” Ye Liangchen suddenly stopped, a sly light flashed in his eyes. He looked at Temari, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, “It’s my turn!”
Ye Liangchen curled the corners of his mouth, revealing a confident smile.
“Show me the secrets of Konoha’s physical skills!” Before he finished speaking, his figure disappeared from the spot, so fast that only a residual image was left.
“So fast!” Temari was shocked. Before she could react, Ye Liangchen appeared behind her and threw a fierce side kick straight to her waist.
“Oh no!” Temari quickly waved the three-star fan to block, but only heard a muffled “bang” sound, and the whole person was knocked back several steps by the huge force.
“Come again!” Ye Liangchen followed like a shadow, using both fists and feet, each move was ferocious, leaving the surrounding Sand Village ninjas stunned.
“This kid is a monster!” Even the usually strict Maki couldn’t help but sigh.
Ye Liangchen’s attacks became faster and faster. Temari gradually couldn’t hold on any longer and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
She gritted her teeth and tried to resist, but could only passively take the beating.
“It’s over!” Ye Liangchen shouted and hit Temari in the abdomen with a powerful straight punch, knocking her out.
Temari fell heavily to the ground and struggled to get up, but she felt weak all over.
“I…I lost…” Temari whispered.
“Thank you for your compliment.” Ye Liangchen said with a fist clasped, a look of triumph on his face.
At this time, a white-haired elder walked tremblingly to Ye Liangchen and bowed deeply.
“Little hero of Konoha, I had a very deep prejudice against Konoha before, please forgive me! We in the Sand Village are convinced by your strength!”
Ye Liangchen quickly helped the elder up and said, “You’re too polite. This is just a discussion. There’s no need to be so polite.” The elder’s action represented that the conservative forces in the Sand Village had completely changed their attitude. Ye Liangchen felt a sense of accomplishment.
After the fight, Temari walked up to Ye Liangchen and hit him lightly, “You kid, you are so cruel!” There was a hint of coquettishness in her tone.
Ye Liangchen looked at Temari, their eyes met, and the atmosphere was subtle.
Suddenly, two figures appeared at the entrance of the training ground. They were Haruno Sakura and Ino.
Seeing Ye Liangchen and Temari being so close, Haruno Sakura’s face turned pale instantly.
“Ye Liangchen! What are you doing!” Haruno Sakura roared, rushed to Ye Liangchen and pushed Temari away.
“Xiaoying, please listen to my explanation…” Ye Liangchen was interrupted by Haruno Sakura before he could finish his words.
“What do you need to explain! You and this woman from the Sand Village…you…” Haruno Sakura pointed at Temari, too angry to speak.
Ino on the side also added fuel to the fire, “Sakura, look, I told you this kid is dishonest!”
The scene suddenly became chaotic, and at this moment, Gaara appeared. “Stop it!”
Ye Liangchen looked at everything in front of him. He knew that he had to resolve this misunderstanding…
“I……”
062. True Heart Revealed (Old Version)
Gaara let out a low shout, like thunderclap out of nowhere, making everyone’s eardrums buzz.
The chaotic scene suddenly became quiet, and everyone’s eyes were focused on him.
He looked around and said in a deep voice: “If you have anything to say, let’s talk after the mission is over.”
Gaara spoke, and even though Haruno Sakura was furious, she had to suppress it.
She glared at Ye Liangchen and Temari, snorted heavily, and turned her head away.
Seeing this, Ye Liangchen knew that the matter could not be delayed any longer and had to be explained immediately.
He walked up to Haruno Sakura and whispered, “Sakura, Ino, let’s talk for a moment.”
Haruno Sakura was still angry and didn’t want to pay any attention to him, but because Gaara was present, she had to suppress her anger and followed Ye Liangchen and Ino to a secluded corner outside the training ground.
The shadows of the trees were swaying all around, and the sunlight filtered through the branches and leaves, casting mottled spots of light, but the atmosphere was solemn and depressing.
Ye Liangchen looked at Haruno Sakura’s angry eyes and felt helpless.
He took a deep breath and spoke slowly: “Sakura, things are not what you think. Temari and I are just working partners…”
“Partnership? Does a partnership require being so close? Does a partnership require flirting?” Haruno Sakura interrupted him angrily, her tone full of sarcasm.
“That’s right! Sakura, see, I told you this kid isn’t honest!” Ino chimed in from the side with an expression that said “I’ve seen through you a long time ago”, which gave Ye Liangchen an even bigger headache.
“Ino! Don’t make trouble!” Ye Liangchen was a little annoyed. “Temari and I were really just discussing the mission. The elder suddenly fainted just now, and I was in a hurry to support him. Don’t think the wrong way!”
“Fainted? I think you were pretending! I think the two of you were in collusion! You were acting on purpose for us!” Haruno Sakura crossed her arms across her chest, her face full of disbelief, and her tone was aggressive.
Ye Liangchen felt a surge of anger rushing to his head. He raised his voice and emphasized: “I’ll say it again, there is nothing wrong between us! I am carrying out my mission!”
Haruno Sakura sneered: “A mission? What kind of mission requires cuddling with a female ninja from the Sand Village?”
Ye Liangchen suppressed his anger and said word by word: “Now, I don’t want to explain too much…” He took out a scroll from his ninja tool bag and slowly unfolded it, “This is the mission we really have to carry out!”
The scroll slowly unfolded in front of Haruno Sakura and Ino, with the seals of the Hokage and the Kazekage clearly stamped on it. The bright red seals seemed to carry some kind of magical power that instantly silenced the two.
The densely packed text recorded in detail the content of this cooperative mission: jointly investigate the cause of the abnormal chakra fluctuations near the Sand Village.
“That’s it?” Ino stiffened her neck and said stubbornly, “Who knows if it’s fake?”
Ye Liangchen rolled his eyes. This girl is really determined to do it!
He simply took out his ninja registration book and pointed at the mission record on it: “Open your titanium dog eyes and take a good look! It clearly records my recent missions, including this cooperation with the Sand Village!”
Ino leaned in to take a closer look, her expression gradually changing from suspicion to embarrassment.
Haruno Sakura also came over to take a look, and her expression became a little unnatural.
“This…” Haruno Sakura stammered, her momentum obviously weakened.
“I have been subjected to all kinds of difficulties since the first day I arrived at the Sand Village,” Ye Liangchen put away the scroll and the register, his tone calm, but with a hint of imperceptible fatigue, “The conservatives in the Sand Village Elders’ Council have been hindering me everywhere. They don’t trust Konoha, let alone me. Gaara is caught in the middle, and Temari is also trying her best to help me. All our contacts and all our ‘intimate’ actions are just to complete the mission and for the benefit of Konoha!”
He paused, staring at the two of them with burning eyes: “I get up early and work late every day, working my ass off, just to complete the mission as soon as possible, so that I can return to Konoha earlier. In the end, I work so hard, but you gossip about me behind my back and doubt my character. Do you think this is appropriate?”
Haruno Sakura and Ino were both silent, their eyes flickering, not daring to look Ye Liangchen in the face.
The sunlight shone through the gaps between the leaves, sprinkling onto Ye Liangchen’s face, making him look more determined and more tired.
“I devoted myself to Konoha, but in the end…” Ye Liangchen shook his head, said nothing more, turned around and was about to leave.
“Ye Liangchen…” Haruno Sakura’s voice was very soft, with a hint of apology.
Ye Liangchen stopped but did not look back.
“I’m sorry…” Haruno Sakura’s voice became softer, almost inaudible.
A gust of wind blew, and the leaves rustled, as if responding to something.
“Da, da, da…” The light footsteps came from far away and were particularly clear in the silent woods…
“Liangchen, are you okay?”
The clear sound, like a spring in the forest, broke the awkward silence.
Temari, dressed in red, appeared silently behind everyone. Her green eyes were full of concern for Ye Liangchen.
Ye Liangchen was a little surprised. He didn’t expect Temari to follow him.
He looked at Temari, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and said happily: “What can happen to me? They are just a few little girls, they can’t make any waves.”
Temari felt relieved to see that he was fine, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, but she quickly returned to her cold expression and snorted as a response.
She glanced at Haruno Sakura and Ino with a barely perceptible warning in her eyes.
Sakura Haruno and Ino felt a little guilty when they were looked at by her and unconsciously took a few steps back.
Their eyes met, and there was a subtle ambiguity in the air.
Ye Liangchen felt a blush flash across Temari’s face. He scratched his head and broke the weird atmosphere: “Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, let’s continue working.”
At this moment, a ninja from the Sand Village came running over and said urgently, “Oh no! Bandits have appeared on the border again! There are many of them this time, and they are well-equipped!”
Ye Liangchen frowned, thinking to himself: “What you fear is bound to happen!” He immediately turned to look at everyone, and said firmly: “Let’s go! Follow me to the border!”
The ninjas from Konoha and Sand Village quickly gathered and followed Ye Liangchen, running towards the border.
As soon as we arrived at the border, we saw a group of well-equipped bandits attacking frantically.
These bandits were ferocious and wielded swords in a menacing manner, and the ninjas from Konoha and the Sand Village found it difficult for them at first.
“Don’t panic! Form a battle formation!” Ye Liangchen gave an order and led the way, rushing into the enemy camp.
His body was as fast as lightning, his fists and feet were as powerful as the wind, and every attack he made was carried out with amazing force, which directly knocked the bandits to the ground.
He was like a meat grinder on the battlefield, with blood and flesh flying wherever he passed.
Ye Liangchen’s bravery infected every ninja present.
The ninjas from Konoha and Sand Village also broke out. They cooperated with each other and were no longer afraid. The fighting atmosphere was instantly ignited and became heated.
Ye Liangchen shuttled through the crowd, his perception like a radar, locking onto the location of the bandit leader.
He flashed and appeared in front of the bandit leader like a ghost.
Before the bandit leader could react, Ye Liangchen punched him and he flew out. He fell heavily to the ground, spitting blood.
Seeing their leader being captured, the bandits collapsed instantly, dropping their weapons and armor and fleeing in all directions.
“Mission accomplished! Regroup!” Ye Liangchen stood in the center of the battlefield, looking around at everyone, his voice loud and clear, like a general returning in triumph.
The ninjas from Konoha and Sand Village cheered and looked at Ye Liangchen with admiration in their eyes.
Ye Liangchen and Temari looked at each other, and both saw relief in each other’s eyes.
This time, their cooperation was even closer.
“Ye Liangchen, you are really strong!” Gaara walked over, his tone rarely filled with a hint of admiration.
“It’s OK, basic operation.” Ye Liangchen waved his hand, pretending nothing had happened, but he was very happy in his heart.
Maki also came forward and patted Ye Liangchen on the shoulder: “Thanks to you this time, but don’t be too happy too soon, the next final assessment will be the real challenge.”
Ye Liangchen looked into the distance, the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on his face. He showed a meaningful smile and said softly: “Assessment? Interesting…”
He took a step forward and walked towards the depths of the Sand Village, his figure gradually disappearing in the afterglow of the sunset.
063. Ninjutsu Trial (Old Version)
At the examination site of the Sand Village, the sky was filled with yellow sand and the air was filled with a murderous aura.
Ye Liangchen stood in the center of the venue, feeling like a little lamb that had strayed into a pack of wolves. The eyes around him seemed to want to eat him alive.
These guys from the Sand Village all have sharp eyes, just like Zhao Xin who is about to get a pentakill in the canyon, and they just lack the words “I won’t fight you” written on their faces.
“As expected of this Sand Village, the feeling of pressure is amazing!” Ye Liangchen secretly complained in his heart, but he remained calm on the surface, trying to maintain the demeanor of a master. After all, he is also a man who has seen the world, so he can’t be timid!
The assessment officially began, and an elite ninja wearing the Sand Village uniform jumped out with a scornful smile on his lips.
“Ninja from Konoha, let me see what you can do!” His tone was arrogant, just like the villain in a TV drama, and the words “Today is the day you die” were just a few steps away from being written on his face.
This guy started the regional attack mode right from the start, which was obviously a tactic aimed at Konoha.
Ye Liangchen saw through his little trick at a glance, and thought to himself: “Want to embarrass me? No way! Today I will let you see what the King of Konoha is!”
The elite ninja formed seals with his hands at an astonishing speed, muttering something like a spell. The surrounding wind and sand began to swirl, forming a small sandstorm.
“Wind Style: Rasengan!” He shouted, and a high-speed rotating sand ball flew towards Ye Liangchen.
This move does not have good intentions!
Ye Liangchen did not dare to be careless and quickly dodged.
The sand ball flew past the corner of his clothes and left a deep hole on the ground.
My goodness, if I get hit by this, I’ll be skinned alive even if I don’t die!
“Interesting…” Ye Liangchen’s mouth curled up slightly. He stretched his muscles and bones, making a “cracking” sound, like a beast about to wake up.
“This is just the beginning!” Before Ye Liangchen finished speaking, his figure flashed…
The figure flashed and appeared behind the elite ninja.
He used the “Konoha Whirlwind Kick” and kicked the elite ninja hard on the back with a fierce gust of wind.
The elite ninja reacted quickly and dodged to the side, barely avoiding Ye Liangchen’s attack.
He slapped Ye Liangchen on the chest with his backhand, and the wind from his palm whistled, raising a cloud of dust.
Ye Liangchen was not in a hurry. He stretched out his hands to block and took the palm strike head-on.
He felt a powerful force hitting his body, and his feet involuntarily slid back several steps.
“What a powerful force!” Ye Liangchen said in his heart. The strength of this elite ninja should not be underestimated.
The elite ninja took advantage of the situation and launched another attack, using both fists and feet, each move was deadly.
Ye Liangchen relied on his flexible body to constantly dodge the opponent’s attacks while looking for opportunities to counterattack.
The two men fought back and forth, and the battle scene was exciting.
The surrounding Sand Village ninjas were attracted by this fierce battle and gathered to watch, exclaiming from time to time.
“This Konoha ninja is quite skilled!”
“Yeah, I didn’t expect that he could fight an elite ninja to a standstill!”
“It seems that Konoha’s strength should not be underestimated!”
While dodging, Ye Liangchen gradually discovered the flaws in the elite ninja’s attack.
Although his attacks are fierce, they lack variety and are easily predicted.
Seizing the opportunity, Ye Liangchen suddenly launched a counterattack.
He used the “Konoha Flickering Technique” and instantly appeared in front of the elite ninja, punching him hard in the abdomen.
“Ugh…” The elite ninja groaned and his body bent down involuntarily.
Ye Liangchen took advantage of the victory and used the “Konoha Whirlwind Kick” again to kick the elite ninja away.
The elite ninja fell heavily to the ground and struggled a few times, but was unable to stand up.
“I…I lost…” he said with difficulty.
Ye Liangchen slowly walked up to him, stretched out his hand and pulled him up. “Thank you.”
The surrounding Sand Village ninjas were all stunned.
They didn’t expect that this Konoha ninja could actually defeat the elite ninja!
“That’s amazing!”
“This Konoha’s ninjutsu is really unexpected!”
“It seems we have to re-evaluate Konoha’s strength!”
The elder of the Sand Village also nodded, with appreciation in his eyes.
“This young man has a bright future!”
Ye Liangchen’s prestige in the Sand Village was further enhanced, and his performance made the ninjas of the Sand Village look at him with admiration.
“Humph, it’s just luck.” A voice came from the crowd.
Ye Liangchen turned his head and saw a tall female ninja from the Sand Village looking at him coldly.
“Oh? Really?” Ye Liangchen’s mouth curled up slightly.
The assessment is over and the dust has settled.
Ye Liangchen brushed the sand off his body, hiding his achievements and fame.
Temari, standing in the crowd, had eyes sparkling like the brightest stars in the night sky, and she made no secret of her admiration for Ye Liangchen.
She waved her fists and shouted excitedly: “Ye Liangchen, you are so handsome! You are simply the shining point of Konoha!”
When Ye Liangchen received the praise from Temari, the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously, and a ripple appeared in his heart. How should I describe this feeling? It was a bit like eating a honey-flavored soldier’s ration pill, so sweet.
This scene happened to fall into Haruno Sakura’s eyes.
She crossed her arms over her chest and looked at the two of them with complicated eyes, feeling mixed emotions.
The jealousy and dissatisfaction of the past have now disappeared, replaced by an indescribable emotion, sour and astringent, like dried plums without sugar.
There was a subtle atmosphere in the air, and even the wind carried a hint of ambiguity.
“Keep a low profile, just basic operations, basic operations.” Ye Liangchen waved his hands modestly, thinking in his heart: This wave of operations must be given full marks!
He was not carried away by victory. Instead, he took the initiative to walk up to the ninjas from the Sand Village and share his experience and insights on Konoha’s ninjutsu.
His in-depth and easy-to-understand explanations made the ninjas of the Sand Village listen with great interest, and some even took out small notebooks to take careful notes.
This wave of operations was a textbook-level friendly exchange, which directly boosted the favorability of the Sand Village ninjas to an all-time high.
“I didn’t expect the ninjas of Konoha to be so humble. It’s really admirable!”
“Yes, Ye Liangchen is not only powerful, but also has a very noble character!”
The Sand Village ninjas all praised, and the atmosphere on the scene was harmonious, as if the tension just now had never happened.
At the summary meeting after the assessment, the two sides had a disagreement on the distribution of the results of the ninjutsu exchange.
Some ninjas from the Sand Village thought that Konoha had gained too much and began to discuss in a low voice, and the atmosphere became tense again.
“Why do they in Konoha take so much?”
“That’s right, our Sand Village has made a great contribution!”
Ye Liangchen knew that this problem must be solved in order to truly complete the cooperation mission.
He took a deep breath, stood up, and spoke slowly…
064. Cooperation is successful (old version)
“Ahem,” Ye Liangchen cleared his throat. The scene suddenly fell silent. Everyone’s eyes were focused on him. The air was filled with a tense atmosphere, as if one could hear a pin drop clearly.
“Regarding the distribution issue, I think everyone is a little depressed.” He said in a relaxed tone, trying to ease the atmosphere.
“Depressed? What kind of ninjutsu is that?” A ninja from the Sand Village muttered in a low voice, not knowing what was going on.
“Uh… I just feel uncomfortable.” Ye Liangchen scratched his head and explained, “Everyone is doing this for the good of the village, I can understand that. But when we worked together before, it was like brothers working together, they can break any obstacle with one strength! I remember one time, Kankuro’s puppet was controlled by the enemy. If I hadn’t acted in time, the consequences would have been disastrous, right? Also, Temari’s wind escape ninjutsu matched my physical skills perfectly, and we beat the enemy to a pulp!”
He paused, his eyes swept over everyone present, and his tone became serious: “We in Konoha have indeed learned a lot from this ninjutsu exchange, but everyone in the Sand Village has also gained a lot, right? We all learn from each other and make progress together, this is called win-win cooperation!”
“That’s easy to say! What you got from Konoha are A-level ninjutsu!” A ninja from the Sand Village stood up excitedly and pointed at Ye Liangchen’s nose, “We only got some B-level ninjutsu, is that fair?”
“Brother, please be patient.” Ye Liangchen explained calmly, “Although A-level ninjutsu is powerful, it also depends on whether it is suitable. Your Sand Village is good at wind escape and puppetry. Our Konoha’s water escape ninjutsu will not be of much use to you, right? On the contrary, the sand control skills we learned from the Sand Village have greatly improved our Konoha’s earth escape ninjutsu. So, I think this allocation is actually quite reasonable.”
“What nonsense! It’s obvious that you, Konoha, are taking advantage!” Another ninja from the Sand Village also joined the argument. The atmosphere on the scene suddenly became tense, as if a spark could trigger a big war.
Gaara sat in the main seat with a frown on his face. He knew that the elders were not satisfied with this cooperation to begin with, and now this incident had happened. He was afraid…
“How about this,” Ye Liangchen suddenly raised his voice, interrupting everyone’s quarrel. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a mysterious smile, “I have a suggestion…” “Ahem, everyone calm down and listen to me.” Ye Liangchen cleared his throat, and a confident arc appeared at the corner of his mouth, “My plan is this, we don’t dwell on level A and level B, let’s go straight to something hardcore!”
He waved his hand and said in a sonorous and powerful tone: “I will integrate all the ninjutsu I learned from the Sand Village this time, optimize and upgrade it! Then, Konoha and the Sand Village will each send a representative to compete on the spot. Whoever can master the optimized ninjutsu better will gain all the results of this ninjutsu exchange! How about it, is this plan exciting enough?”
The ninjas of the Sand Village looked at each other, shock written all over their faces.
They didn’t expect that Ye Liangchen would come up with such a bold plan.
This is simply upgrading the exchange of ninjutsu into a ninjutsu competition!
“This…will this work?” A ninja from the Sand Village asked stutteringly, obviously confused by Ye Liangchen’s operation.
“Why not? Let’s take it out for a walk!” Ye Liangchen crossed his arms and said confidently, “Isn’t this much better than arguing over words and arguing about what’s A-level or B-level? The strong make the rules, this is the romance of ninjas! Don’t worry, I promise that the optimized ninjutsu will definitely make the ninjas of your Sand Village even stronger! Everyone will get something to eat, this is a win-win situation!”
The ninjas of the Sand Village looked at each other, with disbelief in their eyes.
They had never seen such a “cowardly” Konoha ninja before, who actually took the initiative to propose such a challenge. He was simply the king of cowardice!
Gaara looked at Ye Liangchen, and a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.
He didn’t expect that Ye Liangchen was not only strong, but also had such wisdom and courage. He actually used this method to solve all problems directly. This operation was simply 666!
“Okay! Let’s do as you say!” Temari stepped forward first with an excited smile on her face. Her eyes were full of admiration and appreciation when she looked at Ye Liangchen.
“This kid is quite interesting.” Kanjiro also put aside his doubts, and his opinion of Ye Liangchen changed 180 degrees.
Maki also nodded in agreement.
Even the stubborn elders of the Sand Village were shocked by Ye Liangchen’s courage and expressed their no objections.
“Well, it’s a deal!” Ye Liangchen snapped his fingers and said with a smile.
Temari walked up to Ye Liangchen and grabbed his hand.
Her face flushed slightly, her eyes were full of love, and she said in a gentle tone: “Ye Liangchen, you are so great!”
Ye Liangchen felt a little embarrassed by Temari’s sudden action, but he did not struggle to break free. He just scratched his head shyly.
Seeing this, the surrounding ninjas laughed kindly, and the atmosphere became warm and ambiguous.
Even Haruno Sakura and Ino stopped bickering and their expressions became very subtle when they saw this scene.
The cooperation was successfully completed. Ye Liangchen and Temari held hands tightly, as if celebrating the victory. At this time, a Konoha ninja came to report: “Lord Ye Liangchen, the village has a new task and you need to go back immediately.” “It’s just a small gift, not a respect.” Ye Liangchen waved his hand and politely declined the mountains of thank-you gifts from the Sand Village, and his style was instantly full.
“Konoha and Sunagakure are friends who have been through life and death together! This little thing is not worth mentioning!” The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a charming smile, “Besides, I want to become the Hokage, so I have to open up my horizons!”
The ninjas of the Sand Village were immediately in awe and looked at this kid Ye Liangchen. Although he was so young, he was not only extremely powerful, but also so wise. He really had a bright future!
Gaara excitedly held Ye Liangchen’s hand and praised him repeatedly: “Brother Ye Liangchen, you are the pride of Konoha! The Sand Village will always be grateful for your help!”
Just as everyone was immersed in the joyful atmosphere, a ninja dressed in the uniform of the Sound Village stumbled in and broke this harmonious scene.
“Oh no! Sound Village… Something big happened in Sound Village!”
He was panting, his face pale, “Orochimaru… Orochimaru’s remnants have taken control of the Sound Village! They… They want to destroy everything!”
The atmosphere froze in an instant, and the air was filled with tension.
Ye Liangchen’s expression also became solemn. He realized that a new crisis had arrived.
“Take me to Sound Village.” Ye Liangchen’s tone was firm and unquestionable.
“But… Sound Village is very dangerous now! You…” Temari looked at Ye Liangchen worriedly,
“I know.” Ye Liangchen gently touched Temari’s head, “But the ninjas of Sound Village are also innocent. I can’t just sit there and watch. Don’t worry, I will definitely come back safely.”
He looked at Temari deeply, then turned around and looked firmly in the direction of the distant Sound Village.
He knew that the ninjas of Sound Village might not believe him easily, and he didn’t know what difficulties he would face, but he was not afraid.
After bidding farewell to the ninjas from the Sand Village and the Konoha Village, Ye Liangchen embarked on the journey to the Sound Village.
“Otone Village…” Ye Liangchen murmured in a low voice, with a complex light flashing in his eyes.
065. Sound Ninja: Ye Liangchen’s Ice-breaking Journey (Old Version)
After bidding farewell to his friends in Sand Village and Konoha, Ye Liangchen rushed to Sound Village without stopping.
Before even entering the village, a desolate atmosphere hit me in the face, which was in stark contrast to the hustle and bustle I had felt in the Sand Village before.
“This… is simply two different worlds!” Ye Liangchen couldn’t help but complain.
When he entered the Sound Village, the scene before him shocked him even more.
The houses were dilapidated, the streets were deserted, and an eerie silence hung in the air, broken only by the whimpering sound of the wind blowing through the ruins.
“This is too tragic, even more desolate than the demolition site in my hometown.” Ye Liangchen thought to himself, could it be that the entire Sound Village has moved away?
Suddenly, he noticed several Otonin villagers, who were wandering around like zombies with empty eyes.
“Shit, could there be a zombie virus outbreak?” Ye Liangchen’s heart skipped a beat and he subconsciously touched the kunai at his waist. This scene seemed wrong no matter how he looked at it.
Just as he was about to observe further, a familiar figure flashed out from the darkness. It was Tayuya who had reported the news to the Sand Village before.
At this moment, her eyes were cold, her face was expressionless, and she exuded a suffocating murderous aura.
“Oh no, it looks like I’ve met a tough guy!” Ye Liangchen said in his heart.
Before he could react, Tayuya launched his attack.
“Swish, swish, swish!” Several shurikens broke through the air and headed straight for Ye Liangchen’s face.
Ye Liangchen was quick-witted and quick-handed, and he dodged it by leaning sideways.
“Hey, hey, hey, girl, let’s talk nicely and don’t use force!” Ye Liangchen tried to communicate with Tayouya while dodging her attacks.
However, Tayuya ignored her and attacked more fiercely.
“It seems there is nothing to talk about!” Ye Liangchen sighed helplessly and could only defend passively.
Duoyouya’s attack speed was extremely fast and his moves were unpredictable. Ye Liangchen gradually felt a little tired.
“This girl is too cruel!” Ye Liangchen cursed in his heart. Before he knew it, Tayuya’s kunai had already approached his throat…
“Wait!” Ye Liangchen suddenly shouted.
Tayuya’s attack was like a storm. Shurikens, kunai, explosive tags, and all kinds of ninja tools in her hands seemed to have life and attacked Ye Liangchen frantically.
Ye Liangchen jumped up and down, dodged left and right, and shuttled through the woods like a nimble monkey.
“Oh my god, this girl must be cheating! The attack density is so high, I’m going to be exhausted to death!” Ye Liangchen complained while struggling to hold on.
Tayouya’s attack speed was extremely fast and his moves were unpredictable. Ye Liangchen felt like he had fallen into a blender and was dizzy.
He tried hard to observe the trajectory of Tayuya’s attacks, trying to find a flaw.
“This girl has good physical skills, but she seems to be a bit dependent on her left hand. She always makes a small movement before launching a big move…” Ye Liangchen’s eyes lit up, as if he had discovered something.
Seizing the gap in Tayuya’s attack, Ye Liangchen acted decisively, using the “Thousand Years Kill” to directly hit Tayuya’s weak spot.
However, Duoyouya was prepared and easily neutralized Ye Liangchen’s attack with a backflip, and threw out a kunai.
“Oh my god, such a quick reaction!” Ye Liangchen cursed inwardly and quickly dodged.
The surrounding Otogakure ninjas watched the battle indifferently, without any expression on their faces, as if they were watching a play.
“Hey, hey, hey, please give us a hand! This girl is too cruel!” Ye Liangchen couldn’t help but complain, but the only response he got was silence.
In another attack, Ye Liangchen once again captured Tayouya’s little movements.
This time, he concentrated his chakra, formed seals with his hands, and used a modified version of the “Rasengan”.
“Look at me, the enhanced version of Rasengan!” Ye Liangchen shouted, and the Rasengan in his hand, with powerful chakra fluctuations, hit Tayuya’s weak spot hard.
“Ah!” Tayouya groaned, her attack rhythm interrupted and her body trembled slightly.
Ye Liangchen took this opportunity to take a breath and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
“Huh, I finally found an opportunity! It seems that this girl is not invincible!” Ye Liangchen was secretly happy and his confidence increased greatly.
He looked at Tayuya with a sly smile on his face, “Sister, now you know how powerful I am, right? Do you want to consider surrendering?”
Tayuya clenched her teeth, as if she was gathering strength.
Suddenly, she raised her head abruptly, with a strange light flashing in her eyes…
“You are so naive!”
As Tayuya finished her words, a powerful chakra burst out from her body and the air around her began to distort.
Ye Liangchen thought to himself, this girl is about to use her ultimate move!
He quickly took a few steps back and took a defensive stance.
Tayouya was seen forming seals with her hands quickly, muttering something, and a strange energy gathered around her.
At this moment, Ye Liangchen felt a burning gaze staring at him from behind.
He subconsciously looked back, but found nothing.
“Is it my illusion?” He wondered in his heart, but he didn’t dare to let his guard down and continued to stare at Tayuya.
Suddenly, an old voice was heard: “Let him continue!” Ye Liangchen looked in the direction of the voice and saw a short, haggard old man slowly walking out.
This old man is the chief of Sound Village.
“Village chief, what are you doing…” Ye Liangchen was a little confused. Shouldn’t this old man stop him?
Why do you let yourself continue to fight?
The head of the Sound Village sighed and said helplessly: “Only in this way can we find a way to break free from the control.”
Ye Liangchen was stunned for a moment, then he understood what the village chief meant.
It seems that these ninjas from Sound Village are controlled by some force, and Tayu is the key.
Thinking of this, Ye Liangchen no longer hesitated and launched an attack again.
His figure was as fast as lightning, approaching Tayuya quickly. Every normal attack was accompanied by a surge of chakra, causing real damage.
Tayuya’s defenses gradually collapsed, his body began to tremble, and the strange light in his eyes gradually dimmed.
“It’s almost successful!” Ye Liangchen was delighted and increased the intensity of his attack.
At this moment, a group of Otogakure ninjas suddenly surrounded them from all directions. They had empty eyes and surrounded Ye Liangchen like zombies.
Ye Liangchen looked at the Otogakure ninjas who were surrounding him, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised: “Heh, the majority bullying the minority?”
066. Dangerously Entering the Enemy’s Lair: Ye Liangchen’s Brave Exploration (Old Version)
Ye Liangchen looked at the Otogakure ninjas surrounding him without feeling any fear.
The corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he thought to himself: “The majority bullying the minority? I have been doing this for a long time.”
His eyes were determined, and the enemies around him felt his determination, and the tense atmosphere was about to break out.
Ye Liangchen leaped suddenly, as fast as a cheetah, and rushed out of the encirclement in an instant.
The ninjas of Sound Village were unable to react in time and could only watch him go away.
Ye Liangchen did not stop. His steps were firm and swift as he went deep into the heart of the Sound Village.
The surrounding scenery gradually became darker, and the air was filled with an oppressive atmosphere, as if every step was stepping on thorns.
Suddenly, a trap hidden underground was activated, and sharp iron spikes popped out from the ground.
“Hmph, you think you can stop me with this little trick?” Ye Liangchen turned sideways, easily avoided the trap and continued to move forward.
His keen perception told him that more dangers lay ahead.
Sure enough, from a tree not far away, several kunai were shot towards them at a high speed, and the sound of them breaking through the air could be clearly heard.
Ye Liangchen rolled over and dodged the attack like a nimble snake.
He avoided traps while observing his surroundings.
The ground is covered with various traps and mechanisms, and there are enemies in the air who may attack at any time.
Ye Liangchen’s heartbeat quickened, but he was not panicked at all. Instead, it aroused his fighting spirit even more.
“It’s really terrible. The remnants of Orochimaru are just like this.” He said to himself with a sneer on his lips.
Suddenly, his eyes locked on a hidden entrance in front of him.
It was a hidden cave entrance, surrounded by vines, almost blending in with the surrounding environment.
“It seems that this is their lair.” The light in Ye Liangchen’s eyes became more determined.
He took a deep breath, put aside all distracting thoughts, and rushed towards the hidden cave entrance.
Just then, a cold wind blew by and a sneer sounded in my ears.
“You’ve come just in time. Let me see how strong you are!” A voice came from the darkness, and the rebel ninja from the Sound Village suddenly appeared in front of Ye Liangchen with a cunning light in his eyes.
The appearance of the Sound-Ninja rebels was like a will-o’-the-wisp fire that suddenly lit up in the darkness, bringing with it a chilling eeriness.
Behind him, a group of ninjas with empty eyes and stiff movements came like puppets, and each of their faces was filled with helplessness of being controlled.
“Hey, isn’t this Konoha’s King of Curls? How come you have time to visit me?” The rebel ninja’s tone was frivolous and teasing, as if Ye Liangchen was a prey who walked into a trap.
Ye Liangchen sneered, not afraid at all, “You think you can stop me with these idiots? You must be living in a dream!” He flashed through the crowd like a ghost. Every dodge was as precise as in a textbook. Kunai and shuriken brushed past the corners of his clothes but couldn’t even touch his hair.
The rebel ninja hid behind the controlled ninja, like a sinister poisonous snake, looking for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack.
He commanded the puppets to attack, muttering to himself, like a clumsy magician, trying to confuse Ye Liangchen with these clumsy tricks.
“That’s all?” Ye Liangchen taunted as he dodged. His speed was getting faster and faster, shuttling back and forth on the battlefield like a cheetah. Those ninjas who were controlled by him couldn’t even touch the corner of his clothes.
“Your level is not good enough, have you not eaten? Or are you just going to be a mouse hiding behind for the rest of your life?”
The rebel ninja’s face turned livid. His attacks were as ineffective as tickling, and he was instead angered by Ye Liangchen’s ridicule.
The moment he revealed a flaw, Ye Liangchen seized the opportunity, and all the chakra in his body exploded instantly, surging out like a volcanic eruption.
With a roar, the chakra in Ye Liangchen’s right hand quickly spun, forming a blue energy ball that rushed directly towards the rebel ninja with strong wind pressure.
The rebel ninja was unable to dodge and was hit directly by this powerful energy.
His body flew out like a kite with a broken string, hitting the wall with a dull thud, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
The controlled ninjas lost control, stopped attacking, and stood there in a daze.
The emptiness in their eyes gradually disappeared, replaced by confusion and fear.
Ye Liangchen ignored them. He stood there, looking around with sharp eyes. After confirming that there was no other danger, he slowly walked towards the rebel ninja who was knocked away.
At this moment, everything around him was quiet, with only the sound of his steady footsteps, tapping the ground one by one.
“Ahem…” The rebel ninja struggled to stand up, but was powerless.
Ye Liangchen walked up to the rebel ninja, squatted down, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, “It seems that you are just like this.”
“You…” The rebel ninja wanted to say something, but Ye Liangchen grabbed the collar and lifted him up.
At this moment, a cry of surprise came from not far away: “Ye Liangchen!” There was a hint of trembling in the voice, but more of it was concern.
Hinata saw Ye Liangchen fighting with the rebel ninja from afar, and her heart was in her throat.
Although she knew Ye Liangchen was very strong, she still couldn’t help but worry.
When she saw the blood at the corner of Ye Liangchen’s mouth, she no longer cared about anything else and rushed over regardless of everything.
“Ye Liangchen, how are you?” Hinata’s voice trembled slightly as she carefully examined his wound.
“It’s just a minor injury, it’s no big deal.” Ye Liangchen smiled casually, trying to reassure her.
Hinata didn’t say anything, but silently took out medicine and bandages from the ninja tool bag and bandaged him gently.
Ye Liangchen looked at her serious expression and a warm feeling surged in his heart.
This girl is so silly and cute.
At this moment, an old voice broke the brief silence: “Ye Liangchen, you did a good job, but the real trouble has just begun.”
The chief of Sound Village appeared behind them at some point, with a serious look on his face.
Instead of thanking Ye Liangchen for defeating the rebel ninja, he told him an even more shocking news.
“What do you mean?” Ye Liangchen frowned, feeling that things were not simple.
“This is just the tip of the iceberg of Orochimaru’s remnants’ conspiracy. The real danger is still to come.” The village chief sighed, his tone full of helplessness.
Ye Liangchen’s heart sank. It seemed that things were more complicated than he had imagined.
Following the clues provided by the village chief, he came to a hidden cave.
As soon as I stepped into the cave, a cold breath hit me in the face, making me feel creepy.
It was pitch black in the cave, and you couldn’t see your hand in front of you.
Ye Liangchen walked forward cautiously, being extremely careful with every step.
Suddenly, a powerful chakra wave came from deep in the cave. Ye Liangchen was startled and quickly took a defensive posture.
“Who is it?” A gloomy voice echoed in the cave.
A figure slowly walked out of the darkness, covered in a black cloak, and his face could not be seen clearly.
He exuded a powerful evil aura, like a messenger from hell.
Ye Liangchen’s heart sank. “Oh, I thought it was someone else…”
067. The truth finally comes out: Ye Liangchen’s glorious redemption (old version)
“Heh, I thought it was someone else…” Ye Liangchen raised the corner of his mouth and smiled contemptuously, but he did not dare to be careless in his heart.
This evil chakra is more powerful than any enemy encountered before, it is simply heavyweight!
The air around seemed to freeze, making it hard to breathe.
The cave was cold and damp, with water dripping down the rock wall, making a “tick-tick” sound, which was particularly clear in the silent environment and added to the tense atmosphere.
Ye Liangchen felt his palms sweating slightly
The man in black robe launched the attack without any further ado.
He just made seals with his hands, muttered something, and a powerful chakra wave burst out instantly!
“Wind Escape·Big Breakthrough!” The howling wind pounced on Ye Liangchen like a ferocious beast.
The power of this wind escape is far beyond that of ordinary ninjas. Ye Liangchen did not dare to take it head-on and quickly dodged to the side.
The strong wind whistled past his body, bringing with it a bone-chilling chill; he could even feel the slight sting of his skin as the wind blades scratched his skin.
After dodging the attack, Ye Liangchen immediately launched a counterattack.
“Konoha Whirlwind!” He flew up and did a roundhouse kick to hit the man in black robe hard.
However, the man in black robe simply stretched out a hand and blocked his attack.
“That’s all?” The black-robed man laughed sarcastically, his tone full of disdain, “Do you think you can defeat me with this little bit of strength? That’s just wishful thinking!”
The black-robed man’s contempt angered Ye Liangchen. He clenched his teeth, his eyes burning with rage.
He just couldn’t believe that a time traveler like him would be controlled by a villain boss?
“Don’t be so arrogant!” Ye Liangchen growled, the chakra in his body surging wildly, “This is just the beginning!”
“Really? Then I’d like to see what else you can do!” The man in black robe sneered. Ye Liangchen shook his body and dodged another wind escape attack from the man in black robe.
When he landed, he exerted force with his feet, and the ground cracked with a “crack”, and fine lines appeared, spreading like a spider web.
“Your speed is pretty good, but I don’t know how good your attack power is?” The man in black robe said, and formed seals with his hands again, “Wind Style: Vacuum Jade!” Several wind blades shot towards Ye Liangchen like bullets.
Ye Liangchen frowned, and his figure shuttled between the wind blades like a ghost, dodging them narrowly.
“This Old Six has so many skills, will he let me have fun with him?” He cursed in his heart, and the kunai in his hand flew around, colliding with the wind blade, making bursts of crisp metallic collision sounds.
The battle entered a white-hot stage, with both sides fighting back and forth, fists and feet engaging, and the collision of chakras exploding like bombs.
Although Ye Liangchen was agile, the attacks of the man in black robe became more and more fierce. Each blow brought with it a strong wind pressure, which gradually put him at a disadvantage.
He felt that the chakra in his body was being consumed too quickly, and if this continued he would probably have to kneel down.
“No, I can’t passively take the beating anymore!” Ye Liangchen was anxious. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind and he remembered his golden finger.
A sly smile appeared on his lips. Since every normal attack can increase chakra and cause real damage, he might as well win by numbers!
He began to change his tactics, no longer engaging in a head-on confrontation, but instead using his speed and flexibility to constantly harass the man in black robes.
Every attack, whether it hits or not, carries a trace of real damage, like a blunt knife cutting flesh, making it impossible for the man in black to defend himself.
The black-robed man’s attack gradually slowed down, and a look of pain began to appear on his face.
“What’s going on? Why is my chakra constantly being lost?” He was puzzled, but he didn’t know that he had been caught by Ye Liangchen’s golden finger.
“The opportunity has come!” A gleam of light flashed in Ye Liangchen’s eyes, and the chakra in his body burst out instantly.
He bent his legs slightly and pounced on the man in black like a cheetah.
“Konoha Style·Ultimate Secret·Rasengan!” He concentrated all his chakra in his palm, and a high-speed rotating blue energy ball appeared in his hand, making a deafening roar.
The Rasengan hit the man in black robe with the force of thunder and went straight through his body.
“Ah!” The man in black robe let out a shrill scream, and his body flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, hitting the stone wall of the cave heavily, and gravel flew everywhere.
As the black-robed man fell, the Otogakure ninjas who had been under control were also released from their state, and their eyes went from dull to clear.
They stared blankly at Ye Liangchen in front of them, “This…what’s going on?” The chief of Sound Village covered his head, looking confused.
At this moment, Ye Liangchen slowly turned around and looked towards the source of the sound.
A petite figure trembled and slowly stood up. She looked around in confusion, as if recalling what happened before, and a trace of uncertain tears flashed in the corners of her eyes.
“Tayuya…”
Tayuya slowly stood up. She looked at the black-robed man lying in the corner of the cave and the bewildered ninjas from the Sound Village around him. Then she looked at Ye Liangchen standing in the center, and her heart was filled with indescribable gratitude.
She walked towards Ye Liangchen tremblingly, and every step seemed extremely difficult, as if every step was to overcome the obstacles in her heart.
“Ye…Ye Liangchen, thank you…” Duoyouya’s voice trembled slightly, but her eyes were firm and bright.
She lowered her head and glanced at Ye Liangchen shyly, a blush appearing on her cheeks.
Ye Liangchen felt her gaze and felt something strange in his heart, and a gentle smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
“It’s all over, Tayuya. I’m glad you’re okay.” Ye Liangchen said softly, reaching out and gently patting Tayuya’s shoulder, conveying a sense of security and warmth.
Tayuya felt the warm power, and her mood gradually calmed down, with her gratitude and admiration growing deeper.
Just then, there was a noisy sound outside the cave, and Hyuga Hinata and Tenten arrived at the scene with several Konoha ninjas.
Seeing Ye Liangchen successfully resolve the crisis of Sound Village, Hinata’s admiration for Ye Liangchen grew even stronger. He was not only a powerful ninja, but also a person who truly cared about others.
“Liangchen, you are so awesome!” Hinata walked forward, Ye Liangchen smiled and nodded, feeling particularly warm in his heart.
He knew that his image in Hinata’s heart had become even more majestic.
The chief of Sound Village also came back to his senses from his shock. He quickly walked up to Ye Liangchen and bowed deeply.
“Lord Ye Liangchen, thank you for saving the Sound Village. You are the benefactor of our entire village!” The village chief’s voice was full of sincerity and gratitude.
Ye Liangchen is not used to this kind of address.
Ye Liangchen waved his hands modestly, indicating that he was just doing the best he could.
He bid farewell to the villagers of Sound Village and set out on the journey back to Konoha Village with their deep friendship.
However, he felt a vague sense of uneasiness in his heart, as if some new challenge was waiting for him.
Just as Ye Liangchen was walking on the way back to Konoha Village, thinking about his future direction, he suddenly heard a slight sound of wind in his ears.
He turned around suddenly and saw a figure flashing among the treetops in the distance, as if giving him some kind of warning.
Ye Liangchen’s eyes narrowed and his pace involuntarily quickened.
068. Sound Ninja Aftermath: Ye Liangchen’s Aftermath (Old Version)
When Ye Liangchen returned to the central square of Sound Village, he thought there would be flowers, applause, and a grand welcome by villagers.
As a result, he was greeted with suspicious looks as if he was looking at a “traitor”, which made three black lines appear on his forehead involuntarily.
“No way? I just saved your entire village!” Ye Liangchen complained crazily in his mind, but tried hard to keep a kind smile on his face.
He felt like he had just defeated a BOSS and before he had time to touch his equipment, his teammates suspected he was cheating.
This group of villagers is so difficult to lead!
There was a hint of awkwardness in the air, and the originally relaxed atmosphere instantly fell to the bottom.
“Hey, kid!” A bald Otonin man stood up, with muscular body and a tattoo of a snarling snake on his arm.
“You suddenly appeared and solved the crisis in our village. Who knows if you colluded with Orochimaru and his gang?”
This is a very impolite statement, it’s simply throwing the blame in someone’s face.
Ye Liangchen felt that his patience was rapidly decreasing. He took a deep breath and tried to explain in a calm tone: “Brother, I just saw injustice and came to the rescue. I also have the responsibility to resolve the crisis in your village.”
“Hmph! Who knows if what you said is true!” The big man didn’t buy it at all, his eyes were full of hostility.
He took a step forward, and the surrounding Otonin began to whisper.
Ye Liangchen frowned slightly. He could feel the atmosphere of distrust around him oppressing him like a substance.
This feeling is really bad. I work so hard to save people, but in the end I am treated as a bad guy?
What’s the reason for this?
“I understand your concerns, but this is the fact.” Ye Liangchen suppressed his dissatisfaction and tried to explain again.
“Stop talking nonsense!” The bald man waved his hand fiercely, his tone even more hostile, “Who knows if you are in league with the remnants of Orochimaru? Maybe you are here to act and deceive us!”
“That’s right, I saw him acting sneaky, there must be something wrong!” A ninja with a pointed face and monkey cheeks echoed, and the whispers around them gradually became louder, as if a conflict was about to break out at any time.
Ye Liangchen clenched his fists, and his knuckles made a creaking sound. He looked at the Sound Ninjas in front of him who did not trust him, and a surge of anger rushed to his head, but he still tried to remain calm on the surface.
Just when everyone thought Ye Liangchen would force an explanation, he suddenly stopped talking.
Ye Liangchen suddenly grinned, revealing a row of white teeth. This smile seemed particularly abrupt in the weird atmosphere at the moment.
“Since you don’t believe me, I’ll prove it to you!” He paused, and his tone became firm, “I’m going to your underground cell!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place fell into silence, and one could hear a pin drop.
The Sound Ninjas looked at each other, and a feeling of confusion spread among the crowd.
What is this kid up to?
The underground cell is where serious criminals are held. What is he doing there?
“I’m going to go there and see if there are any remnants of Orochimaru left!” Ye Liangchen said in a loud voice, his tone full of unquestionable determination.
He looked around with sharp eyes, “Only in this way can I completely prove my innocence!”
These words made the Sound Ninjas even more confused, but they also aroused a hint of curiosity.
They exchanged glances, as if weighing the pros and cons.
“Okay! I’ll take you there!” The bald man was the first to stand up. He said in a muffled voice, “If you dare to play any tricks, I’ll be the first one to not let you go!”
Ye Liangchen smiled slightly and followed the bald man to the entrance of the underground cell.
Along the way, the surrounding Sound Ninjas all cast curious glances at him, and whispers were heard one after another.
The underground cell was dark and damp, and the air was filled with a musty smell that made people feel very uncomfortable.
As soon as I entered the cell, a gust of cold wind blew in my face, making me shiver.
“Be careful!” Ye Liangchen suddenly shouted and pulled Duoyouya next to him behind him.
Almost at the same time, several poisonous needles shot out from the wall and whizzed towards everyone.
Ye Liangchen was quick-eyed and quick-handed, dodging quickly and at the same time condensing chakra in his hands to form a barrier to block the hidden weapons shot at other people.
“Everyone be careful, there is a trap here!”
A tense atmosphere instantly enveloped the entire underground cell, and the Sound Ninjas drew their weapons and looked around vigilantly.
Their original suspicion of Ye Liangchen gradually dissipated at this moment, and was replaced by a trace of admiration and expectation.
While protecting others, Ye Liangchen carefully observed the surrounding environment.
He discovered that these traps were so cleverly designed that they could be triggered easily if one was not careful.
“This mechanism…” Ye Liangchen squatted down and carefully examined a strange pattern on the ground, frowning, “It’s interesting…”
Ye Liangchen squatted down and gently brushed his fingers over the patterns on the mechanism, like a pianist jumping on the keys.
He closed his eyes and his mind raced, analyzing the structure and operating principles of the mechanism.
The Sound Ninjas around him didn’t dare to make a sound, for fear of disturbing his thoughts.
“This mechanism is a bit like the Bagua formation in our village, but it’s a little different…” Ye Liangchen muttered to himself, gesturing with his fingers in the air, “Look, these nodes should be the key to controlling the entire mechanism…”
He opened his eyes, with a gleam of confidence in them.
“I understand!” Ye Liangchen stood up suddenly, condensed a ball of chakra in his hand, and accurately hit several key nodes on the mechanism.
“Click!” After a crisp sound, the patterns on the mechanism began to change, and the originally closed passage slowly opened.
“Awesome! Brother Chen!” A young Sound Ninja couldn’t help but exclaimed, and the others also cast admiring glances at him.
Even the bald man who had always doubted Ye Liangchen now looked at him with admiration.
Ye Liangchen smiled slightly, took the handkerchief handed to him by Duo Youye, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Their fingertips touched inadvertently, and a subtle electric current flowed between them.
The surrounding Sound Ninjas all smiled knowingly, and there was a hint of ambiguity in the air.
“Okay, let’s move on!” Ye Liangchen returned the handkerchief to Duoyouya, his tone full of confidence.
As they went deeper, the air became more and more humid and the musty smell became stronger.
Finally, they reached the deepest part of the cell and found a hidden dark room.
“In here… there should be something important from Orochimaru’s remnants…” Ye Liangchen looked at the tightly closed door of the dark room.
However, at this moment, a powerful chakra wave came from the dark room, and the entire underground cell began to tremble slightly.
“Oh no! Something’s happening!” The bald man’s face changed and he tightened his weapon.
Ye Liangchen also felt a strong sense of crisis. He turned around suddenly and looked at everyone: “Be careful…”
