As soon as the four were about to be engulfed in the flames, Kakashi used a Water Release ninjutsu.

“Water Release: Water Formation wall!”

…………………………………crash……whiiiissssshhhhhh………….

The agitated water released by Kakashi collided with the surging flames of the explosion, resulting in boundless steam rising up that covered the surroundings in a thick mist.

Feeling the vibrations from his feet and Kuroto immediately warned, “Everyone, disperse!”

As soon as his words fell, countless sharp soil thorns burst out of the ground, shooting at the four people.

With Kuroto’s warning, the four of them jumped to the trunks of the surrounding trees, avoiding another silent attack under the cover of explosions.

Guy looked around…………. “Where is the Enemy!!!???”

BOoom…… boom……… Boom!

As if to answer Guy’s question, there was another series of deadly explosions.

Under the effect of explosions, the four shinobi of class-11 were forced to disperse again, now the distance between them was again increased.

Although the surrounding mist was not very disturbing for Kuroto because of the Tenseigan, the continuous explosions forced him to retreat opposite to the direction where his teammates were.

Seeing that he was continuously being separated from the others, Kuroto more or less guessed who the attacker might be!

And sure enough, it didn’t take long for a figure to step in front of Kuroto.

“So, should I say that I am extremely grateful for you to show yourself here on your own accord!!!??? Because you know, I was really worried about how I was going to find you!!” Kuroto spoke with his bloodlust leaking. He wasn’t even trying to control his blood lust which is completely opposite to how Shinobi work, but against this bastard, he won’t.

While Kuroto said this a figure wearing the official shinobi uniform of the Rock Village came out of the burning flames. That’s correct reader-Kun, it is the captain of the Rock Beheading unit who was also part of the assault team while sealing the Demon Moryo that came through the burning flames.

Initially, Kuroto thought about killing the captain along with eradicating the entire Beheading Unit, but then he let that thought pass away because he has more important things to do, so to avoid pointless trouble, he suppressed his urge for revenge.

He didn’t consider that even if he didn’t bother to go after the bastard, the other party would come to him on his own initiative.

The captain said with a smile, “Well look at you!!? Was it so expected?”

Kuroto didn’t answer but just grinned, “Although I am a little curious, how did you discover the route we would be taking? I can be quite sure no one was following us!”

Based on the continuous attacks since the ambush, the Rock unit had clearly discovered the route they were going to follow in advance, otherwise, it is simply impossible to have arranged ambush attacks so perfectly.

But he is also confident that Class-11 wasn’t any careless in choosing their route, he himself was continuously exploring the surroundings not to mention Shisui was there to make sure they weren’t being followed.

“Squeak….!!!

At this time, a small head sprang out from the neckline of the captain, Kuroto frowned seeing it, because it was just an ordinary-looking squirrel.

“A squirrel!!??” Kuroto muttered absent-mindedly, then shook his head denying, “No, this isn’t just some ordinary squirrel, it’s a summon beast!”

There are many types of summoning beasts. It’s not wrong to say that as long as an animal is capable of using chakra it can be regarded as a summon beast, and this seemingly ordinary squirrel is no exception to that.

“Isn’t this guy cute!!? He may be little but is perfectly capable of tracking any familiar smell from miles away!” After a smile, he continued, “I know you belong to the Hyuga Clan so of course, I won’t follow you personally!”

Kuroto wasn’t any surprised when he heard that but he still asked, “So you do remember me huh!?”

From the other party’s manner of speaking, it wasn’t hard to figure out that he also remembers him. After the battle in which Kuroto almost died, not only did he remember the other party, but the enemy also remembered that he survived.

Now the captain put away his smile, and said with a cold face, “Last time you were just a low-class chunin, I didn’t expect you to grow up to this point in such a short time. The saying ‘Konoha being a cradle of geniuses’ isn’t wrong!”

Kuroto also said coldly, “It looks you regret it huh?”

Captain gritted his teeth and said bitterly, “Yes, I really not being able to kill you that time! So here I am, correcting the mistake of the past. This time he won’t be here to save you and I’ll never let a second Yellow Flash appear in Konoha! If I allow you to grow anymore, you’ll become a threat for the Rock Village, and it is my responsibility as you being alive is my mistake!”

Hyuga Kuroto, who is only about 15 years old is already able to interfere in the battle involving tailed beast class monsters, it is hard to imagine what will his strength be in a decade, if allowed to live, he will inevitably grow up to be another Yellow Flash, which is absolutely intolerable for the Rock Village!

Rock village has never forgotten the humiliation at the hands of Yellow Flash!

Boom….

A faint explosion sounded in the distance.

“There is no doubt that the other members of class-11 have also encountered enemies, and currently battling them.” Kuroto thought with some absent-mindedness.

Seeing Kuroto a little distracted, the Rock captain said, “Don’t worry about them! Those brats will be joining you in the Pure Land very soon! Remember the name of the person to kill you is Iwamodo!”

“Doton: Moguragakure no Jutsu!” [Earth Release: Hiding like a Mole Technique]

Seeing Iwamodo dive into the ground, Kuroto jumped on a big tree to avoid being attacked from the ground and observed carefully.

However, suddenly there was a sound of water bursting off the ground not far away.

Kuroto turned his sight and muttered, “This is the technique of waterfall!!?”

Although this Jutsu isn’t a threat for Kuroto while he is on the tree, he didn’t dare take any chances. The opponent is not only an elite Jonin but also the captain of the fearsome Beheading Unit, someone who is more than experienced to not waste any chakra on the battlefield unnecessarily!

Because of the Water Release Jutsu, the ground was wet and muddy.

Kuroto felt that the muddy ground was somehow not good, but it was difficult for him to tell why exactly, after all, he didn’t know much about Earth Release.

………………. whish……………………….

………………. whish……………………….

………………. whish……………………….

Suddenly, many pellets fired out of the muddy ground, and like sharp kunai, they all blasted towards Kuroto on the tree.

In the face of dense shots of Rock pellets, Kuroto didn’t hesitate to use defensive techniques.

“Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven!”

Revolving Heaven can protect him but not the tree under his feet.

In the blink of an eye, the tree was ridden with holes all over and fell to the ground in the flying sawdust.

As Kuroto landed on the other tree not far away, few whips made of wet mud, entangled his legs and yanked him towards the ground.

“Bang!!!” With a muffled noise, Kuroto fell on the ground.

“Cough-cough…” Kuroto curled up and coughed out blood.

The sudden fall made him feel dizzy, and even his breathing was getting rigorous, looks like a few ribs are broken!

Seeing Kuroto down, Iwamoto rose from the ground, revealing half of his body, and said with a condescending smile: “It seems that I overestimated you, and your Byakugan is also not strong as I imagined!”

Suddenly, Kuroto who was curled up suddenly raised the corners of his lips, revealing a mocking smile.

Seeing that smile Iwamodo didn’t have any good feeling, but when he was about to sink into the ground a sudden force caught him and plucked him out of the ground…
