Naruto: Transmigrating With Yuta's Template-Chapter 211: Konoha Liar

Two Iwa ninjas had their wrists crippled.

Two Iwa ninjas had their knees shattered, collapsing to the ground and wailing.

Three Iwa ninjas were paralyzed by the jellyfish's poison, unable to move.

The last one was caught in the wind, and by the time he fell to the ground, he was covered in injuries and unconscious.

On the bridge, only the sound of the wind and the groans of the Iwa ninjas remained.

Aoki stood stunned for a moment. His hand, gripping the Kunai, remained in a defensive posture. Astonishment flashed in his eyes.

He knew these two youths were exceptionally gifted, but he had never imagined their combat ability would be so terrifying.

Their coordination was flawless, and their methods were ruthless. In an instant, they turned the tide of battle, subduing seven experienced Iwa ninjas.

Aoki took a deep breath. He slowly lowered his Kunai, and looked at the two youths with complex emotions.

Haruki sheathed his sword. Nagato panted slightly, the light of his Rinnegan gradually fading. He had expended a considerable amount of Chakra, and his body felt heavy for a moment.

Jellyfish Orizuki disappeared beside Haruki.

Haruki walked up to the Iwa ninjas, crouched down, and looked directly into their eyes, which were filled with fear and anger.

"Why did you attack us?" Haruki asked curiously.

Their identities shouldn't have been exposed yet. Even if they were exposed, the Iwa ninjas had no reason to kill them.

Among the three of them, two were from the Land of Rain, and one was their own from Iwagakure.

Why would they want to kill them?

An Iwa ninja gritted his teeth, looked at Haruki, and spat disdainfully. "Konoha mongrels! Do you think we wouldn't recognize you just because you removed your headbands?"

Hearing the Iwa ninja's words, Aoki frowned, a hint of disgust flashing in his eyes. "We are not Konoha ninjas."

They attacked them without knowing their true identities. What if they had encountered truly defenseless civilians? Would they have just killed them too?

"Nonsense!"

Another ninja, whose tendons had been severed, roared in pain, glaring fiercely at Aoki. "If you're not from Konoha, how can you use Kenjutsu and Ninjutsu? You are Konoha ninjas."

Aoki knew this was a misjudgment stemming from suspicion and the ingrained thinking of war.

On the chaotic battlefield of the Land of Grass, any ninja from an unknown faction could be treated as an enemy.

No matter how many times he heard such words, they always filled him with uncontrollable rage.

Aoki coldly swept his gaze over the Iwa ninjas on the bridge, then looked at Haruki and Nagato, a flicker of hesitation in his eyes finally turning into cold killing intent.

"These ninjas cannot be left alive. They saw Nagato's eyes and clearly saw our attack techniques. If we let them go, there will be endless trouble. Your identity will definitely be exposed." 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

The last sentence was directed at Haruki by Aoki.

Aoki's gaze bore down. A dark glint flashed in his eyes.

"Should... we deal with them?"

These words from Aoki's mouth greatly surprised Haruki.

Even after escaping the battlefield, Aoki wouldn't be so cold-hearted towards his former comrades, would he?

Aoki's reaction was exactly like Obito later on, disowning all his relatives.

Aoki lowered his eyes, staring at the Iwa ninjas before him.

The law of the battlefield was just this cruel. Mercy often came at the cost of one's life.

Nagato remained silent, looking at the Iwa ninjas who had lost the will to resist, their eyes filled with hatred and fear.

Just then, Haruki took a step forward.

It wouldn't be too late to kill them after he finished his performance.

Haruki's gaze swept over all the Iwa ninjas lying on the ground.

He took a deep breath, genuine light radiating from his eyes, and said, "Everyone from Iwagakure, please listen to me. We are truly not Konoha ninjas, nor are we your enemies. We bear no ill will towards Iwagakure."

Haruki's voice was exceptionally clear on the silent bridge. "We came to the Land of Grass not to participate in the war, nor for any faction."

"Our only purpose in coming here is to save as many innocent people caught in the war as possible. To treat the wounded, bury the dead, and give some food and hope to those displaced."

Haruki's words were sincere, his eyes clear, as he earnestly looked at the Iwa ninjas.

"We have seen too much suffering and death. War brings nothing but destruction and sorrow."

"Whether they are Konoha's children or Iwagakure's children, they are all losing their loved ones."

"We sincerely hope that you can stop the war with Konoha and let peace return to this land."

The Iwa ninjas stared at Haruki without blinking.

What kind of joke was this?

Was war something they could decide?

They were only responsible for executing orders. They had no power to decide whether to start or stop a war.

Nagato looked at Haruki.

[Ding!]

[System detected Nagato's Faith value +2000.]

[Your Cursed Spirit Suguru's rank has risen to 76%.]

Suddenly—

The Iwa ninja, who had been lying on the ground as if unconscious, suddenly had a flash of madness and ruthlessness in his eyes.

While everyone's attention was on Haruki, he suddenly sprang up from the ground, the Kunai he had been secretly hiding in his sleeve sliding into his hand.

"Die!"

"Konoha liars!"

The Iwa ninja used all his strength, delivering a final strike like a dying venomous snake.

The Kunai in his hand forcefully stabbed towards Nagato, who was closest to him and watching Haruki.

All of this happened too fast!

Too suddenly!

Not to mention Aoki, even the Iwa ninjas on the ground didn't react. They watched helplessly as their comrade erupted, his incredibly fast movement leaving a blur in the air.
