Chapter 628: You will die

After identifying Lu Chen's identity, cold sweat immediately broke out on some people's foreheads, and a trace of nervousness and horror appeared in their eyes. They didn't expect to encounter Konoha's Silver Flash in the Land of Rain!

Seeing this group of 'Konoha ninjas' start to flee immediately without a word, Lu Chen already understood the situation in his heart and said coldly, "So they really aren't Konoha ninjas..."

Although it was during wartime, there was no way Konoha would send a team of ninjas to wantonly attack towns in the Land of Rain and kill innocent civilians.

Even if Danzo directed the Root to do this, they would definitely change into the appearance of ninjas from other ninja villages to frame them; it was impossible to act under the name of Konoha.

Clearly.

This batch of ninjas attacking the town were not Konoha ninjas at all.

"Can you escape?"

A trace of coldness appeared in Lu Chen's eyes, and silver light flickered in an instant.

*Swoosh!!! *

Under the shocked gazes of Yahiko, Konan, and the others, they saw a silver streak traverse the street in an instant, passing by the side of those dozen or so 'Konoha ninjas' without stopping.

The dozen or so ninjas who were fleeing all froze.

In everyone's eyes, almost all revealed expressions of horror and fear, struggling to do something more, but they were already unable to do so. Their bodies were all cut off together, falling to the ground accompanied by spraying blood!

*Poof! *

The numerous ninjas who were all cut into two sections by Lu Chen successively burst into puffs of white smoke. The Konoha ninja appearance disappeared, replaced by the attire of Sand Village ninjas.

"Sand Village ninjas, huh..."

"It seems they don't intend to withdraw from the war so easily."

Lu Chen's figure stopped not far away. He sent the Kusanagi Sword in his hand into the scabbard, and at the same time turned around to look at the numerous Sand ninjas who had died all over the ground.

The bathing silver light dissipated silently.

Then.

Lu Chen looked up toward the direction where Yahiko was.

"!"

Yahiko, who was in shock, noticed Lu Chen's gaze looking over and immediately felt a sense of horror, his spine feeling cold, as if he had been stared at by a terrifying existence.

Lu Chen, who could kill a dozen ninjas in an instant, undoubtedly possessed the ability to kill him in an instant. Although the person in front of him looked about the same age as him, his strength had reached a terrifying degree that was somewhat unbelievable!

*Step! *

Nagato walked over, holding a kunai, looking toward Lu Chen with extreme vigilance.

After Konan and the other ninjas recovered from their shock, they were also almost all looking at Lu Chen with extreme nervousness, each gripping the weapons in their hands tightly, cold sweat constantly overflowing from their foreheads.

What kind of speed was that!

Who is the ninja in front of them?!

"Are... are you a Konoha ninja?"

Seeing Lu Chen staring at him, Yahiko swallowed a mouthful of saliva and braced himself to speak.

Lu Chen sized Yahiko up a few times, then passed over Konan and Nagato, lingering a bit longer on Nagato, and stared at the Rinnegan revealed by Nagato for a second.

"Yes."

Lu Chen responded faintly, then withdrew his gaze and walked toward the corpses of the Sand ninjas, starting to search and process them.

Yahiko and the others watched this scene, all frozen in place for a moment, feeling that the atmosphere was extremely weird. They wanted to leave here, but didn't dare to act rashly.

The scene was silent.

Only the sound of Lu Chen processing the corpses remained.

In this weird and oppressive atmosphere, Yahiko gradually calmed down. He judged that Lu Chen didn't kill them and should have no hostility toward them, merely dealing with the Sand ninjas who were impersonating identities to frame Konoha. He took a breath and spoke cautiously:

"Do you know Master Jiraiya? How is he now?"

"Jiraiya is not here."

Lu Chen finished processing the corpses and walked forward along the street.

Yahiko and the others watched Lu Chen walk over, almost all in tension, with palms almost sweating, but Lu Chen eventually just walked past from the side.

Konan watched Lu Chen walking past from the side, hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Lu Chen and said, "You seem to... know us?!"

"Heard Jiraiya mention you."

Lu Chen continued to step forward and responded casually.

Yahiko watched Lu Chen walking further and further away. After hesitating for a while, he finally gritted his teeth and said to Lu Chen, "I heard that your Konoha is at war with the Rain Ninjas... can't you solve the problem in a peaceful way? If needed, I can act as a middleman to help you negotiate with the Rain Ninjas."

Lu Chen stopped his footsteps.

He turned his head and glanced at Yahiko.

"Naive."

"..."

Yahiko froze in place and said, "You great nations don't want to be in a state of war all the time either, right? Why not use negotiation methods to end the war?"

Lu Chen glanced at Yahiko calmly and said, "That requires being built on the foundation of mutual trust between each other, but unfortunately, humans are unable to trust each other... If you continue to hold such naive thoughts, you will die."

After leaving this sentence, Lu Chen continued to step forward and disappeared at the end of the street.

Until Lu Chen's figure disappeared, the numerous ninjas beside Yahiko finally managed to get rid of that oppression, feeling that their spines had almost been soaked with cold sweat.

The few ninjas following Yahiko also looked at Yahiko with strange eyes, not expecting that Yahiko would dare to try to communicate with the other side in front of such a terrifying existence.
