At this moment, the body of the Jonin attacking Kurenai suddenly stiffened, allowing her to barely avoid his attack.

This was caused by Yuhi Shinku releasing a quick Genjutsu.

But he also paid a price for this. After casting the Genjutsu, he was left unguarded and was injured by the other Jonin chasing him in the back. Although wasn't wounded in a vital area, his shoulder now has blood gushing out of it.

"Run! Hurry!"

Yuri Shinku endured the pain from his shoulder with gritted teeth and commanded Kurenai and the others.

After escaping her life and death crisis, Kurenai finally recovered from her shock with her face turning pale as a sheet of paper, because of her momentary daze, her father suffered an injury!

The Sand Ninja used the Mud Clone Technique to deceive Yuhi Shinku to think that he was influenced by his Genjutsu from the beginning. After lowering their guard thinking that they can now safely escape he instantly used Kurenai's momentary loss of attention to make a sneak attack.

If she maintained her focus, her father wouldn't be injured to save her life, but now that Yuhi Shinku was injured, their situation has turned from bad to worse.

"Similar eyes? Hmm... you're related?"

"You won't be able to escape now."

The ninja who injured Shinku looked at them with a sneer.

If Yuhi Shinku wasn't injured, then it would be really difficult for the two of them to kill them, Shinku could just be a hindrance and make attacks every now and then to stop their assault.

But now that Yuhi Shinku is injured, and not lightly at that. It would definitely affect their speed of escaping along with their overall strength, that would mean that they can kill this team along with a strong Ninja from Konoha!

There's no point in killing some Genin class ninjas.

However, if they killed a ninja of Yuhi Shinku's caliber, then even if they didn't bring back some valuable information, it was more than enough for them to earn merit.

"Go!!"

Yuhi Shinku was clutching the wound on his right shoulder while staring at the two Sand ninjas with cold eyes as he shouted for Kurenai and the others to continue escaping.

Upon seeing her father, Kurenai bit her lip. Even though she was extremely worried for him, she knew that staying would only make things difficult for him, so she gritted her teeth and continued to flee with her companions.

But their enemies have no intention of letting them get away.

Although killing Yuhi Shinku would be their major objective, the others should also die along with him. Afterall, if they target them Yuhi Shinku would have a hard time defending himself and the others at the same time.

Whoosh!

One of them rushed towards Kurenai once again.

He knew that there was a connection between her and Yuhi Shinku even though he doesn't know that they're both father and daughter he knew that attacking her would be the most effective if they want to suppress Yuhi Shinku even further.

"Once you become a ninja and step on the battlefield, then you should be mentally prepared on dying anytime little girl!"

One of the Upper Jonin enemies said evilly. He didn't let go of the opportunity to use words to create fear and affect the other's mentality. He knew very well that the lower a ninja's mentality is, the easier it was to expose their flaws.

Indeed.

After hearing him, Kurenai turned slightly pale and a trace of fear flashed in her eyes, after all she was still only a ten year old Kunoichi at this time.

Seeing her situation, the others rushed immediately to Kurenai's aid and threw countless Kunai and Shurikens towards the enemy Upper Jonin, but to their surprise, the other party didn't even try to avoid it.

Puff! Puff! Puff! !

Once the kunai and shuriken struck him, the enemy Jonin solidified in place but then his body turned into a rock that immediately fell apart.

"...Rock Clone?!"

Seeing this, Kurenai's body suddenly shuddered and she felt a rush of cold air. She barely turned her head and she saw in her peripheral vision that the enemy Jonin was already behind her.

The injured Yuhi Shinku had already seen Kurenai's situation, but because of his injury, he could no longer provide support while he was under the attack of the other Upper Jonin.

But at this moment.

Time seemed to become extremely slow.

Kurenai could see the Kunai in the hands of her enemy, penetrating her vest bit by bit, but she couldn't do anything to avoid it, but now that she arrived at the precipice of life and death, her spirit suddenly burst forth with hidden strength.

Even though her consciousness and perception seemed to become extremely clear, her body couldn't keep up with her thoughts and could only stare at the kunai in front of her.

'Am I going to die…'

Kurenai thought in her heart.

"Kurenai!!"

Yuhi Shinku's eyes had long turned scarlet as his tears slowly fell.

The other members of their team on the side also looked at this scene helplessly with gritted teeth and their eyes brimming with tears.

But the next moment, they were stunned at the scene that happened in front of them as their expressions turned into amazement.

They saw a silver light that came from a distance suddenly zipped thru beside Kurenai and both of them disappeared silently.

"!!!"

The pupils of the Upper Jonin that attacked Kurenai suddenly shrank sharply.

He turned his head abruptly and saw that on the treetop not far away, a figure bathed in silver light was standing there, and the 'Kurenai' that disappeared in front of him was held by that figure.

Kurenai was currently dumbfounded. He looked at the figure with silver hair currently carrying her, she vaguely recognized Feng but she couldn't react for the meantime.

"Did I die..."

"Almost."

Feng smiled lightly and said, "But I won't let you."

He happened to pass by the vicinity and immediately noticed the battle, so he came over to take a look, but he didn't expect to encounter the crisis Kurenai was in.

It stands to reason that in the original story, Kurenai should never encounter this kind of life and death crisis, if not for him arriving in the nick of time. Kurenai would probably be a corpse in the next moment.

[Was it due to my arrival in this world that everything began to change...]

Feng murmured in his heart.

Then, his figure shook as he landed on the ground and placed the still dazed Kurenai with the others and turned to look at the two Upper Jonin from Hidden Sand.

As Feng's gaze landed on both of them, they suddenly felt that death was looking at them as all the hairs on their body stood still, they knew that if they didn't escape now, they would forever be buried in this place!

"Run!"

One of them made a decision without the slightest hesitation.

After seeing the speed Feng used to save Kurenai, along with his terrifying Chakra Fluctuation they knew for sure that even if they joined hands they would not be Feng's match!

"Where do you think you're going?"

Feng muttered as his left hand formed hand seals, with his right hand stretched out. Then suddenly arcs of lightning intertwined within his fingers as sounds of thousands of birds rang out. The next moment, his entire person rushed towards the two escaping Upper Jonins.

The other only saw a silver light fly through the battlefield in an instant.

As the silver light passed through the two Upper Jonin's, their bodies just turned stiff, as a hole in their chest could be clearly seen.

The eyes of the two Upper Jonin were trembling as they looked at each other, then they tried to look at the direction of Feng with difficulty, trying hard to see his appearance but before they could even catch a glimpse of the boy bathed in silver light, both of their consciousness finally plunged into darkness.

Thud! Thud!

Sounds of two falling bodies echoed out.

Feng who's a distance away finally dispersed his Hachimon Lightning Mode and finally turned around towards Kurenai and her group only to find out that whether it was Kurenai, the Special Jonin or the others, every single one of them fell into silence as they stared at Feng in dumbfoundedness. Even Yuhi Shinku was no exception.

W-w-w...
