The stand-in messenger in Konoha

Chapter 280 After the Iron Gate Closes

not too long,

The Purple Hermit found his target.

The target was on the top floor of the Ninja Hospital. It was a middle-aged man with a beard and a black turban on his head. Under the turban, the iron piece of the ninja's forehead could be seen faintly. There were also ninja clothing and ninja tools on his body.

When the purple hermit looked up, his eyes seemed to have traveled to [-] minutes ago, and the main body read and wrote the picture of the other party at home.

Right now,

That picture overlapped with the one it saw when it looked up.

There is no difference between the two.

The sky in the hospital was gray and blue, it was getting dark, and the sun was about to set. On the street where Ontology lived, it was still shrouded in the sunset, but here, one could already feel the quiet atmosphere of the end of the day and the beginning of night.

Hospitals are supposed to be quiet places at night.

The purple hermit looked up at the top floor. It first went back to replenish its status, and then went upstairs to the surveillance personnel to check the situation.

Although the purple hermit has a human appearance and is a humanoid substitute, it is not a human in essence, and its way of thinking is not the same as that of a human.

Ordinary people go to the top roof,

He will walk the stairs in a regular manner, going up the stairs one by one.

But as a stand-in, the purple hermit has more abilities than ordinary people, and it likes it better, grabbing the wall of the hospital and climbing directly to the top floor.

"That's Mitarai Anzu, a disciple of Oshemaru-sama. It's really dangerous. Fortunately, I didn't approach it, but chose to observe from a distance. Otherwise, that woman might kill me."

"This is known as the most dangerous woman in the village."

Tsuruno Takeshi is sitting on the water pipe, he is like an ordinary villager, wandering around the village, and does not just stay in one place.

He sat on the ground, looked through the rusty guardrail, watched the street scene in the distance under the setting sun, and stared at a street house.

Before the start of the mission, Tsuruno Takashi was informed of the danger of the target, so he never got close to it, but just watched from a distance, using his sharp eyes to grasp the approximate whereabouts of Bai Yue.

"You are here."

The purple hand is holding on to the iron railing. The hermit is outside the railing on the top floor, leaning on the wall, poking his head out to look at Takeshi Tsuruno. Go to Tsuruno Takeshi.

Squeak.

The bars shook.

Catching Tsuruno Takeshi's attention, he subconsciously looked at the guardrail.

No abnormality was found.

"It's strange, is the guardrail in front already loose?" Takeshi Tsuruno showed a puzzled expression, he paid a little attention, then looked away and looked at the sunset in the sky.

According to Bai Yue's usual habits, he is ready to wash up and sleep at this time, and his work for the day will be considered over by this time.

As long as the shift changer comes over and the two hand over, he can leave, write a task log, submit it to his superior, and then go home to rest.

"Speaking of which, that guy is so late, why didn't he come over? Could it be that he just got up again and ran to buy dinner?"

"What's better for dinner?"

Tsuruno Takeshi looked at the sunset, thinking about where he would go for dinner after handing over the work.

The purple hermit had just stepped over the guardrail, and it nervously turned its head to look at the guardrail behind it.

"My strength has become stronger? Yes, my strength has become stronger, and it is already the same as a normal human being. Under the grasp of the strength of the whole person, the guardrail will indeed be pulled by strength."

The purple hermit glanced back and was relieved to find that the mission objective was still there.

If you startle the snake because of this kind of thing, you will definitely be told by the main body when you go back.

No matter what you say, you are so useless, why can you be more useless?

The purple hermit swept away the picture in his mind, it shook its head, looked at Tsuruno Takeshi, his purple face was expressionless, and then it walked towards him.

"It's different from the last time I came into contact with someone. This person doesn't have Occlumency. Obviously, he didn't enter the core of the root tissue, but just a peripheral member."

"Ontology needs this person's death to warn Shimura Danzo, lest the old man continue to send people over to disturb Ontology's hard-won peaceful life."

"So, I just need to walk over, activate the ability to read and write, and use the method of destroying matter to kill this person directly."

"I'm going to go."

The purple hermit came to Tsuruno Takeshi's side.

But at this time, Tsuruno Takeshi still did not find the purple hermit.

To ordinary people, the purple hermit is an invisible person.

Normal people can't see the Purple Hermit at all.

Only ninjas with special eyes can observe the power of a substitute.

Obviously, Tsuruno Takeshi didn't know that the crisis was imminent, he was still admiring the sunset, and paying attention to the house where Bai Yue lived from time to time.

Just when the purple hermit raised his hand, wanting to know the ninja's life.

Suddenly,

The door to the roof was opened.

"Sorry, sorry, I just rushed over at this time."

The one who pushed open the iron door was a young teenager, fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing a green ninja vest, holding a bag in his hand, and there was a box of dried plum rice balls in the bag.

This kind of rice ball comes in a box of three, each about the size of a fist.

In addition to rice balls, there is also a bottle of mineral water in the bag.

"You should have come here a long time ago, that's fine, there is nothing to do today, but you have to pay attention, the target is followed by a very troublesome person, if he is accidentally discovered, he will probably die unexpectedly." Takeshi Tsuruno warned road.

"Who is that person?"

Ryo Tamura asked.

Tsuruno Takeshi said: "It's Oshemaru-sama's disciple, Mitarai Anko."

"Tch, is that lucky woman?" Ryo Tamura gritted his teeth: "I see, when will she appear?"

"Around six o'clock this morning, and until the end just now, I suspect that I received some protection mission, and the goal of the mission is indeed to go to the Hokage Building." As Tsuruno said, he passed through the purple hermit and walked towards the door.

The purple hermit looked at the figure of Tsuruno Takeshi and Tamura Ryo in front of the door.

"If only one is killed, the other will be stunned."

"If the other one doesn't choose to stay and fight, but keeps a distance, my own existence time is not enough to kill the other party."

"So I want to seize a good opportunity and send the two of them to the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss!"

"And this opportunity is when they pass each other in front of the iron gate. At this time, I can touch their shoulders, so as to have a double kill!"

The purple hermit has followed Bai Yue for a long time, and has a certain understanding of the battle, grasping the timing, and how to maximize the benefits of the battle. It is making its own judgment.

It knows that the main body will get more substitutes in the future.

The strength of those stand-ins varies.

With the personality of the main body who doesn't like to fight and likes to live a peaceful life, those doubles will slowly awaken their sense of autonomy if they say it badly.

In this way, it will face competition and involution.

Until the end, I was coldly received, sat on the bench, and watched other people go out to perform.

The scene of the hero's end made the purple hermit feel very melancholy.

But until now, the main body's body is still its own.

The purple hermit has a lot of activity in his heart, but his eyes are still watching Tsuruno Takeshi walking towards Ryo Tamura, and waiting for it to launch an attack, and the opportunity to kill with one hit will appear!

The purple hermit did not wait long,

Soon, the opportunity it was waiting for came.

"Everything is as I expected, you passed by." The purple hermit raised his hands, showing a demon-like expression, and the sky behind his back turned purple with the fluctuations in his heart.

Its hands patted the shoulders of the two of them.

"I don't understand one thing. Since the adults are so fancy about this child, wouldn't it be good if he came to persuade him directly? It's like convincing us at the beginning. Everyone is protecting Konoha. There are no stereotypes for these three views. Young people like the plot in the dark the most, and they will definitely agree with our idea of ​​protecting Konoha." Ryo Tamura raised his hand and said.

Tanimura "I don't know why. You ask me for news, but I have more questions than you. Since you're here, I'm leaving too. I'll come to replace you tomorrow morning." After the doctor finished speaking, he walked towards the door.

But at this moment,

Suddenly, the bag that Ryo Tamura was holding in his hand broke.

Boxes containing rice balls and mineral water were dropped.

Tian Cunliang's eyes were quick, and he quickly caught the box containing the rice balls. With a light tap of his toes, the mineral water was kicked up. He took a step forward to catch it with his arms and held it in his arms.

The purple hermit kept clapping his hands blankly, watching the two people separate from it one after the other.

"Ahhhh!"

"The precision of this broken movement! A slap on the shoulder turned out to be crooked!"

The purple hermit looked at his hands angrily. It pressed its fingers hard, wanting to clench its fists and stamp its feet, but it was worried about making a noise. In the end, it could only restrain itself from being furious.

"Are you alright?" Hearing the voice, Koji Tsuruno turned around and asked.

Tian Cunliang said: "It's okay, maybe the quality of the bag is not good, please teach me tonight, I have to change the location, it's not safe anymore."

"Um……"

Tsuruno Takeshi glanced at Ryo Tamura. For some reason, he had a bad feeling from just now.

As if there was someone around me,

But there was no sign of it at all.

This is really strange.

Tsuruno Takeshi left the rooftop and went down the stairs.

Click.

The iron door closed slowly.

Ryo Tamura glanced back at the iron gate, and it was the first time he noticed that Tsuruno Takeshi had the habit of closing the door smoothly. Obviously, he had been taught in the ninja school not to approach the door easily and not to close the door after entering the house.

Ryo Tamura shook his head, found a place to sit down, and planned to change places after eating the onigiri. If the target is accompanied by Mitarai red beans, he must be careful.

However, there will be no problem with his long-distance surveillance.

"..."

The purple hermit slowly closed the door behind him, and looked at Takeshi Tsuruno who was walking down the stairs.

Tsuruno Takeshi heard the sound, looked back, and found that the iron door was closed.

He was so distracted that he didn't think about why Ryo Tamura would close the door.

As soon as Tsuruno Takeshi thought that the boy came up the stairs, he stopped thinking about it and walked down the stairs.

Ninjas are used to flying around, but occasionally experience the life of normal people.

After the iron gate is closed,

The light in the corridor dimmed, making it look dark.

Tsuruno Takeshi walked down step by step, the footsteps were not loud, but the sound could be heard.

The purple hermit was a few steps behind Tsuruno Takeshi, followed behind Tsuruno Takeshi, walking down step by step.

This time, it will completely seize the opportunity.

First assassinate this person in the corridor,

Then return to the rooftop and kill another person.

"My movement precision is really too low, especially when fighting, the movement precision will be fully reflected."

"In this way, even if the opponent stands still, I still have the possibility of the attack failing."

"The only reliable method is the attack mode adopted by Ontology, which is to expand the attack range and cover points with the face."

"My current speed and destructive power are the same as those of normal people. If these people don't use the upper chakra energy to increase their physique and use the upper body technique, their physical fitness in normal state is almost the same as mine."

"Damn it... It took too long to come out. It's been more than ten minutes, and I feel tired... The main body and the persistence have reached the limit of human beings. Can you only release me for ten minutes?"

"No, it may also be because it is too far away from the main body. Although the chakra energy in the signal source in the hand has the life force and spiritual power of the main body, after all, the quality is too far from the main body, just like the same product with different qualities. Same price as…”

The purple hermit looked at Takeshi Tsuruno who walked to the next floor, and it knew that it had to take some action.

Otherwise, when the maintenance time has passed, you will lose the ability to act, and then you can only be forced to choose to return to your body.

And when it appears again, it will be a few meters away from the opponent.

Based on the professional habit of ninjas who like to run extremely fast in open places, once the other party leaves the hospital and goes outside.

At its speed it is difficult to catch up.

"So, right here, dismember my body, and let a part of my body, from my floor, pass through the gap of the stair railing, and hang down below."

The purple hermit took quick action in a moment of thought.

It itself is a human form gathered by vines, and it can naturally return to the state of vines.

The main body has upgraded it, taking different parts together to form a body that can move freely after touching Chakra energy.

But that is a technology that can only be used after being strengthened by Chakra energy.

Like a man wearing armor,

Equipment that will only be used in more intense battles.

Don't ordinary humans wear such armor when they live?

The answer is no.

Therefore, according to his own preferences, the purple hermit's normal state is still a body composed of vines, with its hands on the handrail of the stairs,

Its head left its neck and fell.

Its hands, body, and limbs fell down from the gap of the handrail from this floor of stairs one after another.

In the end, they scattered and landed on the steps in front of Tsuruno Takeshi.

There are windows in the corridor,

Outside the window is the dark night, the faintly bright moonlight and the lights of houses in the distance.

The corridors to walk on were very dark and empty.

In the ninja hospital at night, most of the doctors and nurses will leave the hospital and go home to rest, leaving only a few people on duty, and now it is not a time of war, and the number of ninja injuries decreases.

So much so that there were no pedestrians in Nuo Da's hospital at all.

As for the safety stairs, no one would pass by when the hospital was most crowded, let alone now, except for the cleaning lady, no one came back.

And now it was evening, when the sun had just set.

In the corridor, it was even darker and quieter.

Takeshi Tsuruno walked down step by step. He couldn't see the scattered human organs on the stairs in front of him. These organs were all purple.

The purple hermit's head was on one of the steps, and it squinted to see Takeshi Tsuruno walking towards here.

The time for the purple hermit to leave the main body is almost at the limit. At this time, it has no strength at all, so it can only adopt this method.

As long as the opponent can step on its body,

Stepping on its severed limbs covering the entire ladder below, it can launch chanting destruction and attack the opponent's brain one second before returning to the main body.

The substitute ability is not affected by the substitute attribute, as long as it is activated, it will have an effect.

"bring it on."

"Come over to me."

"If I miss you."

"It's the same when you come to me."
