The Shadow of Konoha

The difference between the Lightning Release: Kurikara Daitenkaimono that Hanyu used last and his original Lightning Release: Kurikara is like the difference between Water Release: Water Attack Wave and Water Release: Great Explosion Water Attack Wave... in other words, there is no difference except the scale of the technique.

This kind of ninjutsu with great power and extraordinary visual effects often has a common feature - it consumes a lot of Chakra, so with just this one attack, Hanyu almost emptied the Chakra reserve.

Therefore, this is an extreme attack method that can only be used when life and death are at stake. The ultimate move does look very cool, but once the enemy dodges it, he will surely die... Therefore, in battle, it is best not to use such ninjutsu if possible.

Moreover, its power is too overflowing. Except for dealing with extremely agile monkeys, there is no need to use this trick when fighting against individual ninjas. What Hanyu wants is a battle, not demolition.

But this time, Hanyu felt that his moves were very necessary, and there was no reason to worry about whether he could hit the target.

He stood up again and walked step by step to the place where Ryu fell.

"If possible, I don't want you to die in such a miserable manner... Ryu, why did you hesitate during the battle at the very end?" he asked.

At this time, Ryu looked miserable, as half of his body was cut off by Hanyu's Lightning Release.

Hanyu's words were not hypocritical, he really thought so. At this point, it would be more appropriate to say that the two sides were opponents rather than enemies.

However, if he hadn't used this ultimate move, it would have been difficult for Hanyu to guarantee victory in the battle. In fact, for a dying person, how he dies is not important.

As for Hanyu's question, it was because in the battle just now, although Hanyu felt that the murderous intent he showed was not as resolute as before.

"Ninjutsu... is an extremely profound thing. However, it is precisely because of its profundity that the ninja's training career has no end. It's just a pity that for a ninja like me who was born in a small ninja village, even if I can become much stronger than I am now, the future I can foresee is just like what I 'see', it is pitch black.

There is probably everything in the darkness except hope.

Is there any essential difference between the current ninja world and the previous chaotic times? Perhaps the world is getting better, but I still can't see it.

Besides, I am dead, but my jutsu is still alive... Konoha's ninja, you are a very talented ninja, and I even have to thank you.

Those who are desperate die, and those who are hopeful survive. Isn't this the fate of ninjas... no, shouldn't we say this is the fate of mankind?"

Although they are both ninja villages, there is an essential difference between Amegakure and Konoha. Amegakure is warlike but does not have the strength to win, so Amegakure believes that it has no hope.

Even though he died , his skills were still alive, which was an extremely important thing. His physical skills could even play a greater role on Hanyu, so he... would not be thankful if he was alive, and would not feel sorry if he died.

Ryu has very good hearing, and he was able to learn Hanyu's name from the conversation between Hanyu and Katsuyu, but Hanyu had never formally introduced himself, so he always called Hanyu "Konoha's Ninja".

Hanyu still hasn't fully understood the ninja's view on life and death, but he can understand that what the other party said at the end was extremely heavy.

Then, in response, Hanyu should also say something appropriate:

"I can't guarantee anything. The only thing I can guarantee is that as a ninja, I will become stronger and stronger from the time I am born to the time I die. "

"...That's enough..." Ryu said finally.

Is that so? Is that enough?

After he said this, the other party fell silent and didn't say another word. So Hanyu took a last look at the other party, then took a step and began to withdraw from the battlefield.

His Lightning Release just now was like a searchlight hitting the sky, so someone would definitely notice the abnormality here. At this time, Hanyu's chakra state could no longer support him to fight with all his strength, so he had to evacuate from here as soon as possible.

The war was over. It would be too unfair if he was shut down by the soldiers who came over and was killed.

Hanyu was considered a promising ninja, but he could not prove where the "hope" in himself lay. However, at least he could not die right after making such a promise to the other party. If so, the conversation between the two just now would seem a little funny.

At this time, Hanyu had been out of touch with the outside world for quite a long time. Generally speaking, a ninja like him who had been out of contact for such a long time would definitely be treated as killed in action. In fact, it didn't matter if he didn't return to Konoha now, however... apart from Konoha, Hanyu seemed to have nowhere else to go.

"In the future, I should leave a slug in the village..." Hanyu couldn't help but think that if he left a slug in the village now, he could return quickly.

Now he can either return directly to the Konoha front line from here, or go to the Wet Bone Forest first, and then return to Konoha Village from the Wet Bone Forest, but the Wet Bone Forest is much farther away from Konoha, so Hanyu thinks it would be better for him to go back to the front line directly from here.

A ninja like Hanyu who had disappeared for such a long time would definitely be suspected by the village if he reappeared. This had nothing to do with his identity as an outsider. Even if he was a native Konoha ninja, he would be interrogated after losing contact and then returning. After all, disappearing for a long time without sending any contact and then suddenly reappearing was clearly a standard routine of being captured by other villages, trained as a spy, and then deported.

However, the situation on Hanyu's side is not that complicated, not because he is 100% trustworthy, but because Katsuyu is 100% trustworthy - except for the last battle, Hanyu seems to have been alone in the enemy's territory, but in fact he has always lived together with the summoned beast.

His only problem was that he stayed in the Wet Bone Forest for too long, but that could be explained reasonably... He was beaten and paralyzed, couldn't he find a safe place to recuperate first?

I just don't know what the battle situation between Konoha and Amegakure has been like in the past month.

Just as Hanyu was thinking this, he suddenly stopped - some ninjas were surrounding him.

Hanyu's heart skipped a beat. Sure enough, his searchlight had summoned the Dark Knight.

Just when Hanyu was preparing to fight hard, the leader of the surrounding ninjas suddenly raised his arm to stop the team's actions, and then they stopped on a big tree not far from Hanyu.

The leading ninja looked at Hanyu with an indescribable look.

This is clearly the Land of Rain, but unexpectedly the people who arrived at Hanyu's side first were not enemies... Although it is not completely impossible for them to take hostile actions against Hanyu at this time, at least this group of people should not draw their knives and attack him immediately.

The world is too small after all.

"Are you a human or a ghost?"

The leading ninja asked Hanyu.

Hanyu glanced at the other person with a stupid look. This first question he asked was too unprofessional.

"As you can see, Hatake Sakumo, a creature of my shape can generally be considered a human being."

Although Hanyu sometimes behaves inhumanely, from a biological point of view, no one can question his human identity.
