Chapter 1062: The Desperate Konoha Pursuers

Su Xiao walked quickly through the forest. His steps suddenly stopped, and he looked ahead with doubt.

The forest ahead was dead silent, seemingly without any abnormality, but in reality, it was not so.

Whoosh~

A figure darted out. This figure wore a loose dark green robe, and those pupils were pale white, with large blood vessels bursting out at the corners of the eyes and cheeks.

The person who came was named Hyuga Hizashi, a former Konoha ninja, now summoned by Kabuto, belonging to his own side.

"Byakugan, activate."

Hyuga Hizashi put his hands together, his two index fingers pressed together, and the other fingers curled.

"A total of 28 enemies, hiding ahead."

Hyuga Hizashi's Byakugan was not for show; he immediately detected the enemies ahead.

Over twenty enemies suddenly appeared ahead. Su Xiao guessed that these people might not be ninjas; they might be Qiyuezhe from the Konoha camp.

There were many Qiyuezhe in every ninja village, and Konoha was the most among them. These Qiyuezhe could be considered "old acquaintances" of Su Xiao. Among these people, it was very likely those who followed Uzumaki Naruto last time, that is, those Qiyuezhe who were hung up and whipped by Sasuke using Susanoo.

It was unlikely that ninjas could guess Su Xiao's trajectory, but these Qiyuezhe were different. They came from the same place as Su Xiao and would communicate with Qiyuezhe from other ninja villages using the derived world communication platform.

Su Xiao opened the derived world communication platform. Sure enough, the communication platform was very lively.

Blue Tiger (Solo): "What's the situation in Konoha? They aren't going to continue courting death, right? It is said that they were almost hammered out of their shit by the Second Er Zhuzi last time."

Withered Old Man (Black Sword Adventure Group): "They have already started courting death. Now the five great ninja villages are all hunting that ruthless person, and they only need to hold him off."

Lead Hammer (Solo): "This isn't courting death. They don't need to fight that ruthless person head-on; they only need to hold him off to get a large reward. Why not do it?"

Hell Dog (Solo): "Shut up, all of you. This guy is a lunatic. According to the plot development, the Ninja World War should take at least another month to break out. Now it will break out in less than a week. Nine times out of ten, this guy is the one causing trouble."

The derived world communication platform was exceptionally lively, while in the forest ahead of Su Xiao, the Qiyuezhe hiding in the dark had a very large area of psychological shadow.

In fact, they weren't here to court death, but had received a mandatory mission and had no choice but to come and intercept Su Xiao.

Originally, they just wanted to go through the motions, find a place to ambush, and that would be it. In that case, it would be easier to explain to the Konoha side later.

But what they never expected was that Su Xiao really retreated in the direction they were ambushing. This almost made the small leader of the Konoha Qiyuezhe camp faint from anger.

This small leader was not the leader of these Qiyuezhe; he was at most a strategist, giving constructive opinions. Over time, these Qiyuezhe began to trust him.

At this time, in the temporary team channel of the Konoha Qiyuezhe camp, it had already exploded. Initially, when they saw that there was only Su Xiao, these Qiyuezhe were not nervous. But after Hyuga Hizashi appeared, these Qiyuezhe panicked.

The appearance of Hyuga Hizashi represented that Su Xiao had already cooperated with Kabuto, and also represented that Su Xiao could get a large number of Edo Tensei users.

Su Xiao stood in place and considered for a moment, then looked at Hyuga Hizashi.

"Summoning Technique."

Hyuga Hizashi slapped the ground with one hand. With a bang, white smoke rose, and a coffin was summoned.

Creak~

The coffin lid opened, and finally slammed onto the ground with a smack. A figure wrapped in bandages from head to toe walked out of the coffin; it was the Second Tsuchikage, Mu.

Mu was not a simple character. He was not only skilled in stealth and reconnaissance, but he also mastered Particle Style. Su Xiao had personally experienced the destructive power of Particle Style.

"Damn it!"

A low shout came from the forest, followed by a chaotic sound of footsteps. It was very clear that those Qiyuezhe had fled. The combination of Su Xiao + Hyuga Hizashi + Second Tsuchikage was a nightmare for them. This was definitely not comparable to the time they fought the Second Er Zhuzi to the death.

Within a short five seconds, the Qiyuezhe ambushed in the forest ahead had all slipped away.

From the time Su Xiao arrived here until those Qiyuezhe fled, only a dozen seconds had passed in total.

Su Xiao was hesitating. Now that his side's combat power was not weak, should he try to fight the people from Konoha?

After careful consideration, Su Xiao decided to give up. First of all, Kabuto would not send out too strong Edo Tensei users—for example, Uchiha Madara, Nagato, Itachi, etc. Kabuto would definitely not send them out.

In that case, Su Xiao might face the combination of the Konoha army + Tsunade + Might Guy. If he were to provoke that "Rare Beast," that guy might kick Su Xiao to death with one kick of Night Guy if he opened the Eight Gates.

Su Xiao recalled the miserable state of Uchiha Madara after being hit by Night Guy, then kicked the ground with his feet and continued to move forward.

Su Xiao left the Second Tsuchikage nearby; this was a surprise left for the Konoha pursuers. He had only moved forward for dozens of seconds when a white beam of light appeared from behind.

Su Xiao was very familiar with this fluctuation; it was Particle Style. Without thinking, he knew it was the Second Tsuchikage fighting the Konoha pursuers.

If the people from Konoha continued to pursue, there were other surprises waiting for them, such as Aburame Torune, such as the Third Raikage, such as the Fourth Raikage, such as the Fifth Mizukage Mei Terumi.

That's right, Mei Terumi was also reincarnated by Kabuto. She was killed by Su Xiao. Su Xiao knew very well where the corpse was.

When Mei Terumi was reincarnated by Kabuto, the first thing she saw was Su Xiao. After learning the general situation, Mei Terumi was almost angered to "death" on the spot.

She was killed by Su Xiao, and now she had actually become an ally with Su Xiao. What made her collapse even more was that she would have to deal with those subordinates who had once trusted and followed her.

Mei Terumi's mentality collapsed, and she wanted to end her own life many times, but she couldn't do it.

In the forest, Su Xiao leaped between the trees, Bubu Wang followed behind him, and there were two others behind, namely Hyuga Hizashi and Mei Terumi.

Hyuga Hizashi would not participate in the rear guard. His Byakugan was too suitable for this kind of forest battle. Mei Terumi was ready to guard the rear at any time.

"Bastard."

Mei Terumi stared fixedly at Su Xiao's back, wanting to swallow Su Xiao alive at any moment. However, she was being controlled by Kabuto.

Mei Terumi recalled a sentence she said before she died: "I will never cooperate with villains like you."

She said this sentence when she was refusing Obito's demand for the Tailed Beasts. The general meaning was that even if she died, she would not compromise with the Akatsuki.

Unfortunately, reality gave her a loud slap in the face. She now had to help Su Xiao guard the rear at any time.

Konoha's pursuers were endless. The entire Konoha ninja village was like a hornet's nest that had been fiercely stabbed. This was also the reason why Su Xiao didn't choose to fight the Konoha side. Even if his side had a lot of combat power, the Konoha side had even more combat power.

Moreover, his cooperation with Kabuto was only a cooperative relationship, and this kind of cooperation was not reliable. Once Kabuto released Edo Tensei, Su Xiao would immediately face the siege of the entire Konoha, and there would be no way to escape.

Konoha's pursuit had actually stopped long ago. Initially, Kato Dan, who was guarding the rear, was held off by Tsunade. Afterward, they also endured the Second Tsuchikage, but after that, the Third and Fourth Raikage caused not-insignificant death and injury to the Konoha side. Who knew which village's Kage would appear if they continued to pursue? Tsunade was no longer prepared to continue this kind of desperate pursuit, so the Konoha side had already started to retreat. ===== CHAPTER 1063 =====
