The fifth generation of Konoha Village was booked by me

Three Anbu were moving quickly through the forest, heading towards where Natsuhiko and Kusunoki were.

As ANBU, they naturally have their own tracking methods.

When they discovered that Scorpion had not caught up with them and was heading directly to the north.

They were already ready for support and began to turn around and come directly towards this side.

Speeding up all the way, they felt extremely uneasy in their hearts along the way.

The enemy they encountered this time was so terrifying that they didn't even think they could make it back alive.

Especially now, although they can still move normally, they also know that there are already toxins in their bodies.

And just now, the toxins in their bodies began to explode like crazy. They knew that this was probably Scorpion's method.

If they weren't far away and relying on chakra to suppress them, they might be dead by now.

There are not many choices he can make now. Maybe returning to Konoha would be the best choice. After returning, maybe they can complete the detoxification in the medical department.

But they didn't dare. As ANBU, they had to ensure that the mission could be completed smoothly and successfully.

Especially now, this mission has reached its most critical moment.

If they dare to give up at will, the punishment they will receive when they return will definitely not be any better than death by poisoning!

"How is the situation over there with the captain, Hunter?" While speeding up the action, an ANBU suddenly asked: "Also, how is the situation over there with White Fang?"

"There is no problem with White Fang, but with the captain..." the ANBU codenamed Hunter Grit gritted his teeth: "They are in big trouble. Nightingale is fighting now, but..."

But what, he did not say specifically, but it is completely conceivable that the current situation may not be very good.

After all, the captain and Nightingale were facing a strong man whose strength was immeasurable, and he was most likely the one who assassinated the Third Kazekage!

Facing such a person, I'm afraid only Lord Orochimaru and the two Hokages in the village can deal with them alone, right?

Unless the ANBU members mobilized in full force, they would probably have no choice but to flee.

"Stop talking about this." Another ANBU sighed helplessly, and then he said seriously: "Let's go there quickly. White Fang has already left with a goal. This is enough. We have to complete our mission. .”

"Yes." The two men immediately nodded in response.

But just as the two of them finished speaking, the next moment they both looked into the distance in horror.

That location is where the captain and Nightingale are, and an unimaginable amount of chakra is now bursting out from there!

The earth began to sway crazily at this moment, and a huge gloom spread in the forest.

Along with this large and exaggerated smoke, a lizard as big as a mountain stood in the distance, and the terrifying aura filled the air all around!

"Then...what is that?"

The voices of these three ANBU seemed to be trembling a little, and such a terrifying aura really made them a little scared.

Moreover, the monster-like lizard was so big that in their memory, only the psychic beasts of the Sannin seemed to be able to reach this level.

Not only them, but even Scorpion was a little stunned. He really didn't expect that this kid from Konoha ANBU actually had such a trump card.

Looking at the huge lizard, Scorpion frowned, because this was the first time he had seen such a psychic beast.

The whole body of this lizard is an extremely pure deep khaki color, with three black stripes on the top of its head, snaking down directly to its tail, making it look majestic.

Around its neck, there is a necklace composed of five huge black rosary beads.

Its limbs are proportionally much longer and thicker than ordinary lizards. This does not give people a feeling of bulkiness at all, but gives people a feeling of strength and vigor.

The huge lizard roared, and then his big yellow-orange eyes swept across the forest, and then its pupils locked on Xia Yan standing above him.

"Is it you?" Lizard Maru said in a deep voice, "Why did you summon me?"

Lizard Maru looked a little reluctant, but he didn't complain at all.

Lizard Maru's character was like this, otherwise he wouldn't have stayed in Shouzaki Castle for so many years just because of a promise.

Xia Yan is his contractor. Even if he is unhappy, he will not complain and will fulfill the obligations between the psychic beast and the contractor.

"I need you to cover my retreat."

Xia Yan said quickly, his eyes swept over Xie, and then fell on Nanmu.

"Just stop him temporarily to protect your own safety. You can go back when I have retreated far enough."

"Is that so?" Lizard Maru glanced at Xia Yan, who was still a little surprised.

The task given to him by Natsuhiko was not difficult. It could even be said to be the easiest task he had faced after the contract with Shouzaki Gozuo.

After Shouzaki Gonzo signed a contract with him back then, all he faced were groups of powerful ninjas, and the level of danger was unimaginable.

And when Gosaku Shouzaki was about to die, he even left himself a mission to garrison Shouzaki Castle, making it impossible for him to leave there.

Now that he suddenly received such a simple task, he was really surprised.

"I understand." Shaking his head slightly, Lizard Maru said seriously: "Leave it to me, be careful."

"Well, please." Xia Yan nodded, then jumped down and jumped off Lizard Maru's body.

Lizard Maru is a bit big, but fortunately he has inherited the characteristics of a lizard, so he is half lying on the ground, which is easier for Xia Yan.

If this guy was walking upright like the lizard-like creature called Godzilla in the movie of his previous life, he would really not dare to jump like this.

Xie noticed Xia Yan's movements, and he immediately controlled the puppet of the Third Kazekage to fly over.

However, Lizard Maru's huge head turned at this moment, and his two huge eyes like bathtubs stared at the little thing in front of him without blinking.

His cheeks were twitching, as if he was ready to attack at any time, and the real pressure was suppressed like an overwhelming force.

"puff!"

Suddenly, Lizard Maru launched an attack without warning.

His huge tongue was thrown out like a bolt of lightning, and it shot directly at the puppet of the Third Kazekage as if it were attacking a fly.

Perhaps it was the lizard's instinct, or perhaps he was faithfully fulfilling his agreement with Xia Yan.

His move stunned Xie for a moment, but when Xie noticed that after the big lizard hit the puppet with its tongue, it rolled its tongue as if it wanted to swallow the puppet, Xie's expression changed slightly.

"snort!"

With a cold snort, the third-generation sealed puppet suddenly burst out a large amount of black sand, which quickly separated it from Lizard Maru's tongue.

Lizard Maru rolled his tongue fiercely, but found that he could not touch the little fly's body at all, and the black sand also made him instinctively feel threatened.

So he simply retracted his tongue and let the little fly return to its original place.

Xie took back the puppet, but he was not happy at all.

He stared at the huge lizard in front of him for a long time before he suddenly spoke.

"It seems to be more interesting..."
