The next day, Yukari leaned in Shun's arms, her fingertips gently caressing Karin's photo.
Her eyes were full of longing as she asked, "Shun, I haven't seen Karin for more than ten days. If you have time, can you take me to see them?"
Shun smiled and nodded. "I also want to see them. I'll take you there now."
He raised his hand and condensed a faint golden Chakra, and a spatial gate slowly unfolded in the center of the sleeping chamber. Behind the gate, the vast scenery of the Land of Fire was faintly visible.
Yukari quickly tidied her clothes, gently tied up her long red hair, and quickly walked into the spatial gate.
The moment they passed through the spatial gate, the two of them were suspended in the sky above the Land of Fire.
Not far below, a temporary refugee camp was scattered.
Dozens of light gray tents were neatly arranged, and a simple medical tent was set up in the open space in the middle, with smoke curling up from cooking fires.
Occasionally, the laughter of children could be heard, and although it was simple, it exuded a sense of peace.
In front of the medical tent, four figures were busy, they were Izumi, Karin, Manaka, and Shion.
Izumi was wearing a plain ninja uniform, her long black hair neatly tied behind her head, holding a medical record book. Karin, Manaka, and Shion were also busy in the camp.
Suddenly, more than a dozen figures appeared from behind the sand dunes to the east.
This was a group of rogue ninjas, led by a bearded Jonin, who scanned the four women with lewd and greedy eyes.
The ninja behind him chimed in, "Yo, boss, these four chicks are really hot. I really want to have some fun."
A tall, thin Chunin rubbed his hands, his eyes fixed on Karin's red hair, and licked his lips. "That red-haired little girl looks energetic, how about you leave her to me?"
The bearded Jonin narrowed his eyes, his gaze fixed on Izumi. "This female Jonin is the most beautiful, I've decided she's mine. After we take them down, let me have my fun first."
He turned to look at the scar-faced Jonin beside him, grinning maliciously. "Scar, which one do you want? After we choose, let the rest be divided among the brothers, we haven't had any meat in a long time."
The scar-faced Jonin stared at Manaka's figure, a lewd glint in his eyes. "That one with the bow and arrow, her movements look agile, playing with her must be exciting, I'll take her. As for the other two younger ones, and the other women in the camp, let the brothers below divide them up, that'll be enough to keep them happy."
"Haha, boss is brilliant."
The ninjas behind them immediately cheered, some even began to discuss.
The vulgar words floated with the wind to the medical tent, causing the faces of Izumi and the other three to change drastically.
Karin was the first to lose her temper, her eyes burning with anger. "These bastards! How dare they speak like that?!"
She was about to rush forward, but Izumi reached out and stopped her.
Izumi's face instantly turned cold, and her Three-Tomoe Sharingan quietly appeared.
"Don't be impulsive, protect the refugees first. They will pay the price for their words."
Manaka's fingers tightly gripped her bow and arrow, her eyes as sharp as knives. She quietly replaced the paralysis poisoned arrows in her quiver with short arrows dipped in lethal poison.
Shion also put away her gentleness. Chakra surged within her, ready to unleash Ninjutsu at any moment.
Seeing that the four women dared not rush over, the bearded Jonin laughed even more arrogantly.
"What? Scared speechless? After we've had our fun, we'll throw you in front of the refugees and let them see the 'slutty' way you female ninjas look. Attack! Capture them first, whoever captures them first gets to play first!"
With that, nine Genin rushed forward like hungry wolves.
Some threw Kunai, some used Earth Release, attacking the four women.
Manaka's body was as light as the wind, her right hand quickly drew her bow, and her left hand simultaneously took out six short arrows tipped with lethal poison.
"You all deserve to die!"
Whoosh... Whoosh... Whoosh...
Six arrows shot through the air, accurately hitting the throats of the six Genin who were charging at the front.
Seeing their teammates clutching their necks and falling to the ground, black blood oozing from the corners of their lips, the remaining three Genin stopped in their tracks, their faces filled with terror.
The killing intent in Izumi's eyes erupted, and the red light of her Three-Tomoe Sharingan surged.
Genjutsu: Sharingan!
The two Chunin who were targeted instantly had vacant eyes, and uncontrollably drew their ninja blades from their waists, fiercely stabbing themselves in the crotch.
With two "puffs," blood splattered, and the two fell to the ground screaming, twitching in excruciating pain.
The bearded Jonin no longer had any thoughts of abduction. "Damn it! It's a woman from the Uchiha clan. It seems we have to fight for our lives today, otherwise, the Uchiha will hunt us down until we die. Brothers, kill them!"
The scar-faced Jonin exchanged glances with him, and simultaneously drew their ninja blades, charging towards Izumi.
"Kill her! Quickly kill her!"
The two attacked from left and right, their blades fierce, every move lethal.
Izumi, relying on the dynamic vision of her Three-Tomoe Sharingan, deftly dodged to the side. At the same time, she quickly formed hand signs.
Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!
A huge fireball roared towards the scar-faced Jonin, forcing him to temporarily retreat.
The remaining three Genin and four Chunin also dared not think of anything indecent anymore, only wanting to kill the four women as quickly as possible to save their own lives.
Karin's eyes were filled with anger, and she punched the ground.
Chakra Enhanced Strength!
A giant rock with a diameter of over six meters was lifted by her and smashed fiercely towards the three charging enemies.
Boom!
The giant rock hit the ground, and the three ninjas were instantly crushed into a bloody mess, blood seeping from the cracks in the rock, and even their bones shattered.
Shion was also not to be outdone. She squatted down and quickly formed hand signs.
Earth Release: Earth Flow River!
The ground in front of them suddenly turned to mud, and the remaining four enemies slipped and sank into the mud, unable to move.
Then, Shion continued to form hand signs.
Earth Release: Earth Spear!
Pinning them in the mud, letting them slowly die in pain.
Seeing her three students easily dispatch several enemies, Izumi also had to use her full power.
Genjutsu: Sharingan!
After the bearded Jonin fell into the Genjutsu, he suddenly turned and raised his blade, stabbing towards the scar-faced Jonin. The scar-faced Jonin was caught off guard and was stabbed in the heart, screaming as he fell to the ground.
Izumi seized the opportunity to form hand signs.
Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique!
The flames instantly engulfed him, burning him into a charred corpse.
In just about 10 minutes, more than a dozen rogue ninjas were all killed, their bodies sprawled outside the refugee camp. Their deaths were gruesome, and the air was filled with the smell of blood and burning flesh.
Although the refugees were somewhat scared, they were more relieved, and many began to applaud.
Karin wiped the sweat from her forehead, looking at the bodies on the ground. "Izumi-sensei, all these scoundrels deserve to die."
Izumi retracted her Three-Tomoe Sharingan, and the red light in her eyes gradually faded, her gaze still cold.
"There's no need to show mercy to such scoundrels who insult women and covet refugees. Dispose of the bodies as quickly as possible. Don't let this trash pollute the air of the refugee camp."
