Chapter 274 Cousin? Cousin?
Chapter 274 Cousin? Cousin?
That night, Zuo Jin and You Jin did not wait for the prey he wanted, but it was not a wasted effort.
Anyway, there has to be someone on duty, so the two brothers can take turns to rest.
If he didn't have some advantages, he wouldn't dare to do this, and he really wanted to compete with ninjas from other countries.
Perhaps it was because it was the first day and no one wanted to get into a conflict so soon, or perhaps there were indeed no ninjas passing by their vicinity, so the night passed without any trouble.
Early the next morning, after a simple breakfast, the Kidomaru team was about to continue their journey when they suddenly heard the rustling sound of leaves behind them.
"Hmm? Something's happening, get ready for battle!"
Kidomaru and the other two immediately formed a triangle and stood at different places on the tree trunk. When the noise grew louder, the face of the person who came appeared before them.
The people who came were none other than Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura.
"Oh...! It's them!"
As he spoke, Kidomaru showed a malicious smile on his face.
Karin and Xiaofu didn't have any extra expressions, they just looked at the person who came quietly.
Naruto and the other two on the opposite side also saw Kidomaru blocking the way ahead and stopped immediately.
"What bad luck! We encountered the enemy so soon!"
Naruto said in annoyance, this scene obviously came a little early.
"Humph! If you dare to block our way, then you are planning to fight us. It seems that we are underestimated!"
As he spoke, Sasuke had already taken out a kunai from his ninja tool bag. Not only was there no fear on his face, but he looked eager to try.
However, Sakura's gaze stayed on Fu-chan and Karin longer. As women, especially hostile women, they all disliked each other.
"Eh? Are you saying that we are being treated as soft persimmons?"
Naruto's eyes also turned serious, and he looked sharply at the people in front of him.
The two sides were only about twenty meters apart, and their words could be barely heard clearly. At this time, Kidomaru was also talking to the two women beside him with great interest.
"See? That guy is almost the same as you, both are Jinchūriki!"
These words were said to Xiaofu, and of course also to the three people on the opposite side. The purpose was to let Xiaofu compete with the other party to see who was stronger.
"Haha...Now that you mention it, I'm really interested!"
"No, I also want to test the strength of Konoha's Jinchuriki!"
Karin also spoke up, and it was obvious that not only were they not afraid of each other's identities, they also wanted to test each other's strength.
Naruto looked a little unhappy when he heard these words. It seemed that he was the one who was being treated as a soft persimmon.
At the same time, he was a little surprised at the other party's identity. He was actually a Jinchūriki like him. Fortunately, he didn't know Gaara's information yet, otherwise he would probably be even more surprised.
But his surprise was just beginning. Kidomaru said to Karin:
"What's up, Karin? I remember someone said that Uzumaki Naruto from Konoha is your cousin. Could it be that this person is in front of me?"
After these words were spoken, Xiaofu also remembered it and looked at Karin suspiciously, then looked at Naruto opposite her.
"It seems... that's probably the case..."
Faced with the questioning of her two teammates, Karin could only nod and admit it.
Karin's identity is not a secret, at least in the North; because compared to the real identities of the Jinchūriki, the rebel ninjas in each village, and the Golden Kage, she is just a little special.
Even Uchiha Izumi's identity is more confidential than hers. The Uzumaki clan is just rare and there is no trouble behind them.
Her mother also told her about this matter about her cousin. When she first got the list of candidates for the Konoha Chunin Examination, she noticed this name.
Unlike in the original novel, her mother is still alive, although she has been bedridden for many years.
After a little questioning, I found out the origin of Uzumaki Naruto. They are indeed from the same clan and relatives.
This time she came to Konoha, she also wanted to take the opportunity to meet her cousin. She had noticed him a long time ago, but she never had the chance to talk to him. She didn't expect to meet him in this way.
"Cousin? Naruto, you have a cousin?"
Sakura also looked at Naruto and Karin. They didn't look alike at all, especially one had red hair and the other had blonde hair. There was a world of difference between them.
The person involved, Naruto, was also confused. He had been an orphan since childhood and no one had ever told him about the relationships between his family members.
Not to mention his cousin, Naruto now doesn't even know the names of his father and mother, because no one will tell him.
Maybe it's because of his age, or maybe it's for some other reason, who knows.
"I don't know either! Could it be that the other party made a mistake?"
Naruto scratched his head and squinted at Sakura. His silly expression showed that he was indeed unaware of the situation.
"You can go back and ask... Kakashi... ah."
Her words immediately caused Naruto to complain, and after a few people chatted, Kidomaru suddenly spoke.
"Stop talking nonsense. Since we've met, there's no reason for me to let you go! Let's just have a fight, and the loser gets to keep the scroll! How do you think?"
"Exactly what I want!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Naruto immediately responded. He had been eager to try. Don't think that I won't beat you just because you are Naruto's cousin. I am going to beat your cousin!
Looking at Nibashi who had already jumped out of the team, Karin was just about to go up to meet him. Since it was not her turn to be her cousin, this handsome little guy was not bad either!
Perhaps Sakura noticed that something was wrong with Karin's eyes, so she immediately rushed forward, targeting Karin.
"Hey! Red-haired girl, your opponent is me!"
These words immediately attracted Karin's attention, and she looked at Sakura with a somewhat unpleasant expression.
"What are you talking about, you ugly, fat, broad forehead!"
These two sentences ignited the anger of both of them. Women are so inexplicable.
The two sides immediately became entangled with each other. Of course, it was not pulling hair or clothes, but a collision of physical skills.
Kidomaru was equally unwilling to be outdone. Facing the Uchiha who was known for his genius, he had long wanted to meet him. He would feel a great sense of accomplishment if he could defeat this genius with a distinguished background.
In addition, since both sides claim to be combat geniuses, they are naturally the most suitable opponents.
As for Xiaofu and Naruto, they don't have many ideas. Usually, one looks silly and the other looks fierce.
Xiao Fu just wanted to experience what it was like to fight with a Jinchūriki. After all, usually others would challenge her, the Jinchūriki, to fight, and she had never fought with a Jinchūriki before.
More importantly, Chongming in her body also sent her a message, asking Xiaofu to deal with the other party properly.
"Is there a grudge between the tailed beasts?"
This thought flashed through her mind, and she no longer had time to think about it, because Naruto had already approached her.
"The art of multiple shadow clones!"
More than a dozen Narutos attacked Fu, but her floating body was lighter than that on the ground, so she was able to dodge easily.
After dodging a shadow clone's punch, Xiao Fu slightly increased her floating height and quickly formed seals with both hands.
"Secret Scale-Powder Hidden Technique!"
The next moment, countless scale powders came out of her mouth and sprinkled on Naruto's clone below...
