Naruto: Modern Science in Naruto

Chapter 204: MSIN: Chapter 203

For Haori, it was unclear if it was an illusion, but he felt that being Minato's bodyguard was a pretty tough job.

Because he had to keep up with "Yellow Flash" Minato's speed and stealth, he had to keep his eyes on all sides and his ears open to everything. He also had to constantly move at high frequency and speed.

The key was that just when he finally caught up to Minato, Minato would disappear again… Haori was so exhausted. Was this being a bodyguard or chasing after a girl?

If Minato Namikaze were a girl, then his level of difficulty would absolutely be MAX. No one would be able to get close to him.

So, Haori became a boy chasing after the wind.

And now, he knew that his "pretty tough" wasn't an illusion. It was actually pretty tough. To be more precise, the feeling was pretty excruciating.

Yellow Flash Minato Namikaze charged into a group of enemies, took out three or five of them in an instant, then flew away again, leaving behind a group of confused enemies.

And a confused Haori.

Because he had just arrived after Minato left.

So, he was surrounded by a bunch of Iwagakure ninjas… Huh, it felt like the future Fourth Hokage wasn't very honorable.

Haori had already decided that if the Third Hokage didn't give him a raise and extra field duty allowance while he was serving as Minato's bodyguard, he would quit.

He would absolutely quit.

"Capture the White Fang alive!"

Then… did Haori hear wrong, or did an Iwagakure ninja really shout that? But in this kind of battle, what did capturing alive mean? What kind of play was this?

But comparing the two, if the Iwagakure ninjas had to choose, they would obviously rather fight Haori than Minato. Haori in a Chidori Current state was fast, but his movements were still somewhat traceable. He wasn't like Minato, who would suddenly make people disappear.

By now, Iwagakure's intelligence system had finally figured out who the Konoha spy was who had infiltrated their forces during their battle with Kumogakure.

It was Konoha's "White Fang," Jōnin, Shiraishi Haori. Although he was still a Chūnin at the time.

So, in Iwagakure, Haori had been identified as the culprit who assassinated the Third Raikage and killed Iwagakure's commander, the Third Tsuchikage's son, Tōju.

Although Haori had never intentionally gone on a rampage on the battlefield, in the eyes of Iwagakure, the Tōju captain's death was indeed not a good sight. First, he was hit directly by an S-class Lightning Release. Then, he was hit by a massive Fire Release. His body looked as if it had been stir-fried and then grilled…

The Third Tsuchikage's mood could be imagined. Even though he thought he had already killed Haori, he couldn't calm down.

But then, news came that Haori was still alive and was active in the Hidden Mist. Ōnoki knew he had been played. So, his mood could be imagined later.

Unfortunately for Iwagakure, neither the Raikage's matter nor Tōju's matter was something they wanted to publicize. After all, it was just a Konoha ninja who had done all the work.

So, the information about the Raikage was classified in Iwagakure. Not many people really knew the full details. But this didn't stop the Tsuchikage from issuing a targeted order: If they encountered the Konoha ninja, Haori, during the war, the Iwagakure ninjas had to work together to kill him first.

This wasn't good news for Haori, but these people couldn't possibly carry out the Tsuchikage's order.

Whether or not someone had shouted that they wanted to capture him alive, Haori charged directly at the layers of enemies in front of him.

Facing a ball of lightning that was charging straight at them like an arrow, the first reaction of the ninjas directly in front of him was to instinctively choose to defend.

Several Iwagakure ninjas used Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall together. An earth wall blocked Haori horizontally.

But it has to be said, this wasn't a very good choice. It was fine if the Earth Flow Wall could stop Haori. But if it couldn't, it would have the opposite effect.

The Earth Flow Wall would block the Iwagakure ninjas' own vision as they defended, preventing them from reacting to Haori's attacks in time.

How could they react in time if they couldn't even see?

After getting close to the Iwagakure ninjas' defensive circle, Haori changed from a vertical charge to a horizontal movement. He grabbed his left wrist with his right hand, and his ten-meter-long sword suddenly unsheathed.

It was also lightning-based.

The Chidori Sharp Spear first cut directly into the Earth Flow Wall. Then, as Haori moved quickly, the Earth Flow Wall's defense was cut open instantly without any obstruction… along with the Iwagakure ninjas behind it who didn't have time to dodge.

After slicing from head to toe, Haori didn't look at the results of his attack. Instead, he turned around, ready to deal with the enemies to his sides and behind him.

But when he turned around, he found that the enemies to his sides had completely turned into a ferocious, black mass… Haori didn't have any prejudice against bug control jutsu, but this scene was really a bit of a sensory challenge. The human-shaped objects covered in black bugs, wriggling constantly, really looked… well, you know.

Haori shifted his gaze. As for the rear, it was much more violent.

Legend has it that there's a palm technique that comes down from the sky called… Partial Expansion Jutsu.

Chōji Akimichi's giant palm slammed down on the enemies from top to bottom, making a loud boom.

That wasn't all. After his left palm slammed the enemies to the ground, his right fist clenched and slammed into the back of his left hand.

Was he worried that he wouldn't be able to kill them with one slap?

Haori twitched. The second punch was unnecessary. The first palm strike was enough to guarantee that the enemies would be deader than dead.

As for the mental area of the Iwagakure ninja who had been flattened… it was definitely much larger than Chōji's palm print.

Their three individual strikes couldn't completely break through the enemies surrounding them. But they weren't sticking around. Rationally speaking, these three wouldn't be immersed in killing because of the influence of the battlefield. They never forgot their mission.

So…

Minato, Minato, where did you go?

After finding Minato's whereabouts, the three of them withdrew immediately, striking and leaving.

The Iwagakure ninjas who had been observing the three's movements understood that these three Konoha ninjas were always by Minato's side. They were the Yellow Flash's bodyguards.

Mud covered their pants legs, sweat soaked through their backs. I don't know who you are, but I know who you're doing this for.

It could have been psychological, or it could have been because of supply problems. The Iwagakure ninjas hadn't eaten, so they were lacking energy. In any case, during the battle, Haori did feel that the other side's combat power was a little weaker than usual, and they didn't have that same tenacious, unwavering spirit.

After moving around with Minato for a while, a loud whistle came from the rear of Konoha's attacking force, signaling the end of this offensive.

Minato's squad naturally stayed behind to retreat. After all, as long as Minato was there, even if he didn't do anything, he could significantly delay Iwagakure's pursuit.
