Chapter 137: Lin Disappears

Konoha position.

Just as the war on the front line was in full swing, a figure rushed into the position in a panic.

"Where is Minato teacher?"

Kakashi asked anxiously.

Che pointed to the front and said, "He is directing the battle."

Che saw Kakashi's anxious mood and asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen over there? Just tell me."

Kakashi's previous mission was to patrol the east line.

The east line is much safer than the south line. After all, the enemy's main force can only use the original location of the Whirlpool Country as a springboard to attack the Konoha mainland.

But on the battlefield, the so-called safety is only relative.

Kakashi said anxiously: "Lin is missing!"

Che frowned and thought: "Why is Lin in trouble again?"

Che immediately pressed Kakashi's shoulder and comforted him in a deep voice: "Don't worry, tell me the situation first."

Kakashi let out a long breath, and said after a while: "Lin and I were patrolling on the eastern front, but after a split operation, I couldn't find Lin."

"But I found the traces of several Mist Ninjas with my Sharingan. I'm afraid these Mist Ninjas kidnapped Lin."

After Kakashi finished speaking, he saw Che pretending to be thinking, so he spoke again.

"I'm here to find Minato-sensei. I'm afraid I can't save Lin by myself. Che, what are you thinking about?"

Che expressed his thoughts: "I'm wondering why Lin was captured."

"This time is different from the last time. Last time you were on a confidential mission, and Iwagakure captured Lin to interrogate intelligence."

"But this time is different. Konoha and Kirigakure have basically given up the East Front. Even if they catch Lin and ask about Konoha's deployment on the East Front, it will be useless. Kirigakure does not have the power to launch an attack from the East Front."

"Unless... Kirigakure wants to use Lin for other purposes."

Che then raised his head and said: "No matter what Kirigakure wants to do, they can't let them do it, not to mention that Lin is our companion."

"Kakashi, Minato-sensei still has to command the war on the South Front. I will accompany you to save Lin."

Kakashi nodded solemnly and thanked him: "Thank you."

Che patted Kakashi's shoulder and said gently: "No need to say more, we are companions."

The two set off immediately and rushed from the South Front headquarters to the East Front.

"Don't worry too much. Although I don't know what Kirigakure wants to do, at least I can be sure that Kirigakure will not harm Lin's life. At least before their goal is achieved, Lin is safe."

"Otherwise they wouldn't bother to capture Lin alive."

Che comforted on the way.

Kakashi also nodded and said, "I understand. When I was looking for Lin, I didn't find her blood. It can be seen that Kirigakure doesn't want to hurt Lin."

After a long journey, the two came to the east line of the Land of Fire.

Che and Kakashi passed through Konoha's defense line.

Only one or two hundred troops were deployed on the long east line.

If a small number of troops wanted to infiltrate, it would be very easy.

So Che's current guess is that Kirigakure wants to use Lin to infiltrate the heartland of the Land of Fire, but Che is still unclear about the specific purpose.

"Kakashi, take me to where Lin disappeared."

Che suddenly said, he wanted to go to the place where Lin disappeared and speculate Kirigakure's purpose through clues.

"Okay, not far ahead."

Kakashi pointed forward and said.

The two soon came to the place where Lin disappeared.

In the forest of the Land of Fire, there was a messy trace.

There were messy footprints in the fallen leaves, and there were a few traces of fighting around.

Che used his six eyes to analyze everything around him, and restored the situation of Lin being abducted in his mind.

Lin should have been suddenly surrounded by the Mist Ninjas who appeared from all directions. Lin used the detonating talisman and the wind escape to counterattack, but was blocked by the Mist Ninjas with the water array wall.

Then Lin was suddenly approached by a Mist Ninja and was captured alive using the Water Prison Technique.

"The Mist Ninjas did not use any offensive ninjutsu at all."

"It can be seen that they need Lin to be alive, and they don't even want Lin to be injured."

"If it was just for intelligence, I'm afraid it wouldn't be like this."

Che analyzed.

Kakashi looked at Che, thought for a moment and asked: "What did you think of?"

Che put one hand on his chin and said in a thoughtful manner: "Maybe, the Hidden Mist Village wants to use Lin as a tailed beast weapon."

"What?!"

Kakashi was very surprised and exclaimed.

Che and Kakashi looked at each other and said, "Yes, according to the information I know, the Three-Tails in the Hidden Mist Village has not found a suitable Jinchūriki."

"The Hidden Mist Village may want to use Lin as a temporary Jinchūriki, and then take Lin to infiltrate the hinterland of the Land of Fire to release the Three-Tails. In that case, not to mention the direct damage caused by the Three-Tails, it is our turn for Konoha to send ninjas back to defend, which is enough to change the situation of the war."

Kakashi immediately thought of this possibility after hearing this.

"There is indeed such a possibility..."

"Then Lin will be in danger. The Jinchūriki will die if he loses the tailed beast!"

The first thing Kakashi thought of was Lin's safety.

"But this also means that before the Hidden Mist releases the tailed beast, Lin is absolutely safe, because if the Jinchūriki dies, the tailed beast will also die, and it will take at least several years to revive."

Che analyzed calmly.

Kakashi is also a smart man, nodded, and no longer panicked.

"The sealing process should be quite complicated, and the Hidden Mist Village should not have started yet."

"We will patrol separately. Once one party detects movement, he will send a signal immediately."

Che ordered.

Kakashi nodded, and the two immediately split up to fill the gaps in Konoha's weak defense.

At this time, in a hidden cave in the eastern part of the Country of Fire.

"Master Chunyu, is the seal completed?"

In the cave, a Kirigakure ANBU asked.

An old man with long hair and glasses wiped his sweat and replied: "It's done."

Lin was lying on the ground, and a sealing rune suddenly appeared on her abdomen.

Outside the cave, a huge iron chain was entangled on the ground, and a long trace was dragged out on the ground.

These signs indicate that a huge creature was dragged from the seaside to the outside of the cave, and then suddenly disappeared, leaving only the iron chains that originally bound the monster.

The leading Kirigakure Anbu immediately issued an order.

"Let's set off, sneak into Konoha, release the Three-Tails, and defeat Konoha in one fell swoop!"

"yes!"

There are more than twenty Kirigakure ANBU in the cave, all of them are elite.

It can be seen that Kirigakure Village attaches great importance to this mission.

Lin happened to wake up just now, opened her eyes, heard Kirigakure's plan and immediately asked: "How dare you do this, aren't you afraid of Konoha's revenge?!"

"It's really noisy to gag her, but you will die after the task is completed anyway, saving us the trouble of doing it ourselves."

The leading Kirigakure ANBU gave an order, and an ANBU immediately stepped forward and stuffed Lin's mouth with a piece of white cloth, causing her to only moan angrily.

"Take her and let's go!"
