Chapter 436 Do you regret it now?
At this time.
Reki had barely recovered from the effects of the previous 'flash'.
Rubbing his tearful eyes, he stepped forward and sneered.
"Captain! Can't you even handle a seven or eight year old kid?"
"If this is all you have, why don't I take charge from now on?"
"At least Kana and I were able to suppress our opponents in the fight just now."
Reki, who was already dissatisfied with Maki, a fake Genin, who came to take part in the Chunin Exam and commanded himself and others, now had a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
But he did have reason to express his dissatisfaction.
Previously, when they were in a two-on-two situation, they did have the upper hand.
If Kabuto hadn't gotten rid of Maki and returned for a sneak attack.
Reki thought that he might have already eliminated both of the Kirigakure Genin on the opposite side.
It was Maki, the captain who was a Chunin, who held him back. How could he not feel resentful?
Anyway, this team of theirs was only formed temporarily for the Chunin Exam.
Moreover, Reki felt that after the exam, he would definitely become a Chunin.
So now he has no intention of giving Maki any face.
However, facing Reki's questioning.
Maki simply pointed indifferently at the ground, the huge dent created by Kabuto's powerful punch, and the messy scene around it.
"Even if you couldn't see it just now, you must have heard the sound, right?"
"This is the power of a punch from the seven or eight-year-old kid you mentioned."
In fact, when Kabuto was fighting with Maki in the dense forest before, he didn't show such a terrifying attack at all.
But it didn't stop Maki from using it to shut up Reki's incessant chatter.
And sure enough, Reki, who originally just wanted to take the opportunity to make trouble, immediately shut up.
He had previously thought that the scene before him was the result of some powerful earth-style ninjutsu.
Now that he thinks about it, it's a good thing that person wasn't fighting with him just now.
At this time, Kana, who was standing by, saw that the attitude between the two had eased, and immediately asked her own question.
"Maki-senpai, aren't we going to chase after those three Kirigakure ninjas? The previous mission flags are still in their hands."
Maki turned and looked at Kana when she heard this.
She didn't mind explaining a few words to this gentle and polite junior.
"That's not necessary. The three people on the opposite side are quite strong. Now that they have disappeared from our sight, it will probably be difficult to catch up with them."
"And even if we find the enemy based on the traces, we might still be ambushed by them. If any of us lose our fighting power and are eliminated, it would not be worth it."
"Besides, we still have plenty of time. With our strength, it shouldn't be difficult to collect all three flags."
There is one more point that Maki did not mention.
At this point in time, the combat power of most teams on the island is still intact. If they accidentally encounter other enemies during the pursuit, they may be caught in a pincer attack.
After hearing Maki's explanation, Kana nodded thoughtfully.
But at this time, the puppeteer Reki spoke again in a proud tone.
"There's no need to worry about the three Kirigakure. The red-haired girl among them was poisoned by a special poison I made myself."
"It is impossible for any of these Genin candidates to be able to detoxify her. They will soon be forced to be eliminated because of the loss of a teammate."
"Humph, let's just leave that flag for their team to bury with them."
Maki frowned slightly when she heard this, but ultimately chose to trust the judgment of the team's puppeteer.
The three of them quickly chose another direction to leave.
The other side.
On top of a huge ancient tree with lush branches and leaves.
Kabuto dissipated the chakra he was maintaining in his hands and let out a long sigh.
"Okay, the toxin has been completely eliminated."
After saying this, Kabuto immediately performed ninjutsu and began to treat his extremely swollen right hand.
He hasn't fully mastered the technique of 'super strength' yet, and the last punch just now was a full-strength burst of chakra.
If Ringo Ameyuri's poisoning hadn't been more urgent, he would have been the one most seriously injured.
Now that he had completed the detoxification for Ringo Ameyuri, he immediately began to treat his own arm.
Seeing this, Ringo Ameyuri gave Kabuto a thumbs up weakly.
Even Mangetsu, who was standing next to him, gave a thumbs up.
Faced with the praise from his teammates, Kabuto smiled shyly.
"This poison is still very strong. Under normal circumstances, it would definitely not be removed so quickly."
"But it just so happens that the Sensei has introduced me to several similar toxins before. I heard that they were all bought from a very powerful puppeteer in the Sunagakure Village."
"I have been practicing for a long time to learn how to solve those poisons."
After hearing Kabuto's explanation, Ringo Ameyuri looked nonchalant.
"Anyway, if you can solve it, it means you are good enough. I thought we were doomed before. It will be bad if we lose the qualification to take the exam."
Upon hearing this, Kabuto and Hozuki Mangetsu looked at their slow-witted teammate with frowns on their faces.
'Compared to losing the qualification to take the exam, dying is more serious!' x2
However, before the two of them could open their mouths to complain, Ringo Ameyuri immediately started coughing continuously.
Seeing this, Kabuto quickly grabbed a few handfuls of "Special Military Food Pills" from the medical bag and stuffed them into his mouth.
After recovering some chakra, he quickly formed seals again.
He started using the 'Aqua Ring' to heal both himself and Ringo Ameyuri's injuries.
On the other hand, Hozuki Mangetsu, despite enduring various attacks, most of which is physical damage, which can be completely ignored with the help of the Hydrification Jutsu.
Even the toxins on the iron sand which were released "Wind Sand Cannon Technique" were directly excreted from his body.
Ringo Ameyuri after her injuries recovered a little.
Looking at the bandages wrapped all over her body, she cursed viciously.
"Don't let that poisonous puppet master fall into my hands! I'll kill him sooner or later!"
Kabuto looked at Ringo Ameyuri waving her fists and grinned slightly, but still spoke to comfort her.
"There will be a chance, but next"
"We've already got two flags, so let's finish this second exam as soon as possible!"
-----
On the place where Kabuto and his friends were fighting with the three Sunagakure ninjas.
After Kabuto and the other two had fled in a panic, Maki and the other two did not stay any longer. After a few words, they quickly left the place.
However, no one among the six people who left noticed that among the three Kusagakure Ninjas who were initially "killed", there was still one who was not completely dead.
This person is naturally the red-haired female Kusagakure.
Relying on the powerful life energy of the Uzumaki clan, she managed to survive after taking a direct blow from Maki's 'Wind Blade'.
But at this time her life seemed to be coming to an end.
After the violent shock caused by Kabuto's "Super Strength" punch.
She couldn't even bring her arm to her mouth to take a bite to heal her injuries.
But just when she was ready to give up hope and accept her fate.
A figure quietly landed beside her.
He reached out and gently held her arm and put it into her mouth.
At the same time, Uzumaki Kanako heard a voice that she was vaguely familiar with.
"Now, do you regret your choice?"
