Chapter 76 (1/2)
A large number of Suna Shinobi gathered under a high rock.
”Why haven't Commander Pakura and the others returned yet?”
Chuunin looked in the direction Pakura and the other Jounin had fled earlier.
Someone frowned: ”Just one shinobi, if they caught up with him, they would have already finished the fight and returned, and if they could not catch up, then there is no point in wasting time on too long a chase, perhaps they are....faced with an ambush?!”
”There is such a possibility...”
One of the remaining Jounins said seriously and narrowed his eyes, looking in the direction Pakura had run earlier: ”Perhaps there were problems with this young shinobi...he could be a decoy. But given the strength of Commander Pakura and the others, even if they were ambushed, they would definitely be able to send someone for help.”
The other Jounin thought for a moment and said: ”But Konoha shouldn't have detected our actions, how could they have set up an ambush in such a place?”
”It's hard to say.”
The Jounin who spoke earlier said: ”It doesn't matter how this could happen, we'll wait another ten minutes, if there are no messages, then we'll go in search.”
This mission is extremely important!
It can decide the outcome of the war!
But now they are faced with an unforeseen situation, being discovered by shinobi of unknown origin, the group commander has rushed in pursuit and has not returned for quite a long time, the current situation, at least, does not bode well.
One minute...
Two minutes...
Nothing happened.
It rained relentlessly, dripping down from the overhanging cliff.
Whether it was the shinobi gathered under the rock to shelter from the heavy rain, or the shinobi who climbed on the rock to observe the surroundings, they were all silent, waiting in complete silence.
All of a sudden.
The gaze of the shinobi standing at the top of the cliff flashed, he stared in a certain direction and quickly descended from the cliff: ”Seven o'clock movement, Junin Yoshiki is coming here!”
After his words, the heavy and silent atmosphere immediately dissipated, all the shinobi looked at each other, someone ran out into the rain and looked in the direction of seven o'clock.
One of the Jounins looked at Yoshiki, who was running fast in their direction, and vaguely felt a bad feeling.
If that shinobi was finished, they would all come back together.
But only one Yoshiki returned!
Was his previous conclusion correct? That young shinobi really turned out to be a decoy and lured the pursuers into an ambush? Did Pakura send Yoshiki for help?!
The other shinobi also thought about it, their faces showing tense expressions, this is an emergency!
Numerous glances were directed at Yoshiki, who was running here.
One kilometer....
Nine hundred meters...
Yoshiki was rapidly approaching.
The sensor watching Yoshiki flinched slightly, seemed to sense something, and closed its eyes, when the distance was reduced to five hundred meters, it abruptly opened its eyes and shouted: ”Watch out!!”
”It's not Junin Yoshiki!!”
The expressions of all the shinobi present changed dramatically.
At this point.
The figure of Junin Yoshiki burst into white smoke, abruptly transforming into a youth with silver hair and torn clothes.
Following this, the speed of the young shinobi increased dramatically, increasing by three or four times, he continued to run here.
”So fast!”
”Be careful!!”
”Eighth, ninth and tenth team, prepare your ninjutsu!”
