Chapter 12 Chapter 12 Preparing to Evacuate
There are only three people in their sect right now, so there is no need to be particularly anxious. However, they can prepare the design drawings in advance. After the first round of disciples are fully recruited, she can customize them directly on the system.
Now...
"There are ninjas surrounding us." Madara suddenly mentioned: "Five teams in the back mountain, seven in the front mountain."
"What are you going to do next?" Madara looked at her and asked with interest.
Ali quickly put on his clothes and his face became serious.
Almost 50 ninjas? That's almost as many as they had on the front lines during the Great War.
Ali sighed in his heart, these ninjas are really like leeks, one after another, but they say:
"I don't have that much time to waste with them."
It’s not that she can’t fight. Maybe the previous battle gave Ali a lot of courage, so she is not too worried now.
Since ninjutsu was completely ineffective against her, those ninjas could only compete with her in physical skills. Moreover, even if it was physical skills, she could actually dodge it with her talent, but it was not cost-effective for Ali.
After all, these ninjas are more like experience packages delivered to Ali now.
only……
"We should go," Ali said.
She didn't want to care about ninja or not now. She just wanted to quickly complete the next main line, improve her strength, and refine the unknown fragment left to her by her mother as soon as possible.
Daniu also heard the man's voice. He was a little nervous at first, but after hearing what Big Sister said, he relaxed. He scratched his head blankly and said, "Big Sister, where are we going next?"
Ali glanced in the direction of the front village and responded, "The ruins of the Kingdom of Sky."
"Let's go find a sect headquarters." Ali had completely regarded the King's Fortress of the Kingdom of Sky as the target that he must capture at the moment, so naturally he did not hesitate.
"The Land of the Sky? Is it the country next to us, near Konoha?" Danniu still had some impression of the countries around them. "Wasn't it destroyed by the five major ninja villages more than ten years ago? It is said that it has become a no-man's land. Are we going to live there?"
Ali nodded, and suddenly turned to a house near the edge of the ruins and said loudly:
"Come out, how long are you going to stay?"
Not long after the words fell, a thin and pale boy and a somewhat timid girl slowly walked out, followed by seven or eight familiar faces, some old and some thin, and a few children around five or six years old.
"Sister Ali" was a familiar voice, with a hint of uncertainty and restraint.
"Can we come with you?" The boy asked hesitantly.
Ali looked at the two people in front for a long while, and for a moment he felt a complicated and inexplicable sense of relief in his heart.
"Following me may be very tiring and dangerous!" Ali reminded.
"After we leave, the ninjas will focus all their attention on me. Those ninjas probably won't be so cruel as to wipe out the civilians."
Ali's gaze gradually focused on the boy's pale face. He had been intelligent since childhood, though physically weak. However, as a child, playing together often made Ali wonder if his previous life had been wasted...
"Especially you, if you behave well, you might have the opportunity to enter Konoha's orphanage..."
If it was him, she believed he would always find a way to get what he wanted.
"If you follow me, you will most likely be surrounded by ninjas along the way. Even so, do you still want to follow me?"
When Shui Cang heard what Ali said, he actually relaxed a little. At least, he was not rejected.
Shui Cang shook his head gently. "No, if we don't leave, we will most likely not survive, and neither will they!"
"Let's not talk about whether we will be treated differently by other people in the village next, let's just talk about those ninjas..." His eyes were a little obscure, and he analyzed the current situation to Ali.
"Sister Ali's statement of not wiping out the entire clan means that they have no grudge against us. They might not bother to argue with us, and they might even adopt a few clever orphans with ninja talent as cannon fodder for the next war, depending on their mood."
Shui Cang looked at A Li with a complicated look in his eyes: "But according to my secret observations these days, forty or fifty ninjas from Konoha and Iwagakure have died in our village, including more than a dozen leading ninjas. Now they have suddenly been silent for several days. I only have one possible guess..."
"They went to get support. They have been on standby here these days, ready to wait for the opportunity to catch us all in one fell swoop!" Shui Cang said it without any concealment. His words also successfully caused some unrest among the group of people behind him, and they seemed to have started to panic.
"For the ninja village, more than a dozen Jonin are definitely a huge loss, especially during a non-wartime situation. They won't let us go easily."
This was also the reason why he came out even though he was not sure about A-li's identity. Shui Cang's face turned pale.
Apart from breaking out from Sister Ali, he really couldn't think of how a few ordinary people like them could escape from the layers of encirclement of ninjas.
"After all, they suffered a loss in our village. If we don't retaliate, it would not be the style of those big ninja villages."
Shui Cang sighed: "Anyway, our village is the battle line between the two sides, right? As long as the village is chosen as the battlefield, most of the villagers who don't escape in time during the war will die here."
After hearing this, Daniu became a little restless. He wanted to say something several times but stopped himself. While Ali was still in deep thought, he reached out and pulled the hem of Ali's shirt.
"Big sister, how about we..."
"It's no use!" Shui Cang raised his voice sharply, interrupting Daniu's next words.
"They won't believe Sister Ali. You saw what happened in the cave yesterday. They'd rather believe that Sister Ali started the war than accept the fact that war is about to come again!"
"They are just a bunch of cowards who are unwilling to accept the facts. They think that if they keep their heads down, nothing will happen!" Shui Cang slowly calmed down again, as if he had gotten used to it.
"But often, only when the knife is at their neck do they start to regret it."
Daniel was enraged. "What about you? Aren't you a coward?!"
"Huh?" Shui Cang laughed out of anger, then shouted back, "At least I know when to assess the situation! When to be flexible! I also know that surviving will give me more possibilities!"
"Do you want me to be as reckless as you are?" Shui Cang became even angrier when he said this.
"As an unarmed, underage kid, don't you have the least bit of self-awareness? You rushed out when hundreds of people were going crazy, unable to be stopped, and actively drew hatred towards yourself?"
"If it weren't for your sudden action, we would have had a chance to organize some good friends and sneak down together to find Sister Ali! Even if we were discovered, we wouldn't be powerless to resist!"
Shui Cang's face flushed with excitement: "If it weren't for Sister A Li, you wouldn't even know how you died!"
Da Niu's face flushed red, and he stared at Shui Cang for a long time without saying a word. Shui Cang did not show any weakness at all, and the two pairs of eyes seemed to be competing to see whose eyes could be widened.
"Stop arguing!" The girl, who looked very timid, finally couldn't help but shout. She took a few steps forward and stood between the two of them.
"Daniu, don't be angry first. Actually, Shui Cang is just too worried about you." After A Cui shouted, facing the gazes of the two people, her voice instantly became much softer. If you didn't listen carefully, you could hardly hear what she wanted to say.
Fortunately, Da Niu and the others were already used to girls' soft voices.
"After you suddenly ran down, Shui Cang found us and planned to go back to the village to find you together. His entire arm was scratched by stones and he didn't care about it because he was worried that you would have an accident." The girl grabbed the corner of her clothes, her expression full of worry.
"They moved too quickly. Uncle Fengshu and my father were the only two strong men on our side; the others were either older or younger. There were nearly ten of them, all in their prime. We didn't dare confront them head-on, so we could only follow them from a distance. Finally, we hid at Uncle Fengshu's house nearby..."
"When I saw you trapped in the house, Shui Cang wanted to rush out to save you. But when I saw Sister Li came back, I didn't run out impulsively."
"Don't be angry with him..."
As for why they didn’t come out when they were free last night?
A Cui cautiously glanced at A Li, who had changed a lot.
They had just returned home for two days when this incident happened, and they hadn't seen Sister Ali for five years.
Whether Sister A-li is still the same as before, none of them are sure...
She had watched from afar yesterday and noticed that Sister Ali had completely changed. She was now beautiful, serious, and cold, like a gorgeous yet dangerous knife...
I finally made it through the night and planned to go out this morning to see if I could communicate with Sister Ali.
As a result, more than ten of them were woken up in the morning and saw Ali's crazy look when fighting the monster. She was obviously covered with wounds and blood almost covered her entire body, but she seemed not to notice it and was even smiling.
Courage is like a deflated ball...
The two of them, who had played with Ali for several years when he was a child, had concerns, not to mention the adults and elderly people who were originally closer to the Huamu couple.
Although they thought that this sudden war had little to do with the Huamu family, when they suddenly saw such changes and abilities, they began to suspect that the other party was a fairy.
If Shui Cang hadn't said that they had to go out, most of the people except her and Shui Cang would not have planned to come out.
"Hmph!" Da Niu snorted. His expression had gradually softened, but he still said unyieldingly, "I don't bother to argue with a coward..."
Daniu turned his head away, his face gradually flushing red. After a long while, he asked in a whisper, "Um, how is your injury?"
Shui Cang's expression gradually softened, and he snorted, his tone still a little aggressive: "Thanks to you, I won't die!"
Seeing that Da Niu turned around and was about to argue again, Ali sighed and interrupted him.
"Okay."
"What do you think we should do next?" Ali pondered for a moment, then looked at Shui Cang.
Shui Cang's expression relaxed a lot.
This is promised.
He suppressed his previous emotions and responded directly, "I called down everyone I could when I was in the cave yesterday."
"Sister Ali, did you deal with all those monsters just now? Ninjas are always very sensitive, and they might have surrounded us now!" Shui Cang's voice paused for a moment, and finally asked:
"Sister Ali, are you sure you can escape from the encirclement of dozens or even hundreds of ninjas?"
Ali thought about the approximate number that Madara had just reported and nodded.
“To what extent can it be achieved?”
A Li looked at Shui Cang deeply, without saying anything big: "It's no problem to hold them back."
"Can we evacuate from the pursuit by taking us, a group of encumbrances?" Shui Cang continued to ask.
Ali nodded subconsciously. As long as she could make contact, she could use her jumping function to take the person away.
Seeing this, Shui Cang was a little surprised, but also relieved.
Sister Ali is not the kind of person who brags, so she really has some hidden tricks up her sleeve.
"If Sister Ali doesn't want to worry about the troubles in the village, then we can leave now, but..." Shui Cang chose his words carefully.
"If Sister Ali still has mercy on the lives of the hundreds of people in the village and considers the friendship we had in the past..." Shui Cang's voice paused.
"Then Sister Ali needs to attract the attention of the ninjas as much as possible and keep their attention firmly in her. If necessary, she can even disguise some abilities that pose a greater threat to them, just like the invisible monster before..." When Shui Cang said this, his eyes were vague for a moment.
Ali subconsciously glanced at Ban who was standing next to him with his arms crossed.
Shui Cang's pupils shrank, and then he continued as if he hadn't noticed: "In this case, unless they are sure of winning with one strike, they won't make a move easily, and will only form a confrontation with Sister Ali."
It’s good to have it. If Sister Ali makes a mistake, she can guarantee her own safety to a certain extent.
Shui Cang's expression grew serious. "But this method is risky, because once they take action, it means they are sure of victory, and there is even the possibility of very powerful support coming."
"During this time, Da Niu and I will go to the homes of some capable people in the village to notify them and set a signal. Once the signal is given, Sister Ali can retreat. We will gather at the cave ahead and leave."
"If they were smart, they should have left quickly while the ninjas were focusing all their attention on us and chasing us..."
"Whether they do it or not is none of our business. We've done everything we can. If they choose to stay and are spared by the mercy of the two ninja villages, it's fine. But if they are killed in a planned battle, they can only blame themselves."
Da Niu wanted to say something, but then he remembered that all of this depended on the big sister risking her life to attract hatred, so he swallowed his words.
At least your brain isn't completely broken.
Shui Cang thought about it, and finally reminded: "Those guys almost killed you yesterday. There is a difference between relatives and strangers. You are too kind-hearted. Don't drag down Sister A Li."
Daniu scratched his head irritably: "I know, I know, you're the only one who talks too much!"
