Chapter 152 (1/2)
Country Of Wind.
Temporary camp.
It was a small temporary camp, numbering not much more than two hundred Shinobi. Their task was to create chaos on the border of the Land of Fire and observe the movements of Konoha.
After the vanished Silver Flash was replaced by a Yellow Flash, the Great Villages greatly eased the pressure on Konoha, not daring to engage in a large-scale clash.
All the Kage of the Great Villages are well aware that entering a large-scale battlefield, a shinobi like Minato will show terrifying lethality.
Therefore, they chose the tactics of small skirmishes, trying to exhaust Konoha.
In the central tent of the camp.
Yoshiki Kando, the Elite Junin Sunagakure who is the leader of this camp, was very concerned.
A squad of twenty Shinobi sent to investigate the Land of Fire abruptly stopped communicating about a month ago, and no information has yet been received from him, presumably, the squad encountered the Konoha Shinobi and was completely destroyed.
Then.
About half a month ago, he sent a squad of ten Shinobi to the city-Kingdom of Rouran, with the aim of capturing it and then turning it into an advanced camp. This squad is also missing.
The situation seemed very vague and incomprehensible, Kando even began to suspect that Rouran had already been captured by Konoha. After much thought and hesitation, he decided to send a squad of scouts to Rouran to try to understand the situation.
”They still haven't returned...”
Kando slammed the table.
The task of the sent detachment was only reconnaissance. They should not fight, but only check the situation in Rouran and immediately retreat. Judging by the time that has passed, they should have returned by now.
”Damn it!”
He exclaimed in exasperation.
Kando was not angry at the intelligence unit, but at Konoha. When Sunu was led by the Third Kazekage, considered the strongest Kazekage in history, they were not afraid of conflict with any of the Great Villages.
But the Third Kazekage disappeared under strange circ.u.mstances and it was Konoha who was suspected of this, and then Suna suffered a complete collapse in the war with her, due to the appearance of a terrifying Silver Flash.
When the Silver Flash disappeared without news, presumably dying, they thought it was a chance and re - entered the war with Konoha, but suddenly, the place of the Silver Flash was taken by the Yellow Flash, demonstrating frightening lethality in several battles in a row.
Two consecutive failed encounters with Konoha, severely drained Suna.
The growth of the Yellow Flash is frightening.
Not that he appeared out of nowhere, before, Minato had already received amazing services on the battlefields of the Third World War Shinobi, but he was always in the shadow of the Silver Flash, which repeatedly made the entire Shinobi world shudder.
The Great Villages would not stand a chance against the combined might of the Silver and Yellow Flashes...
Fortunately.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to sleep soundly for fear of being killed right in the camp at any moment.
While Kando was in a terrible mood, a figure burst into the tent.
The shinobi was breathing heavily and barely holding on to his feet, it seemed that he ran for a long time with all his might without stopping, not paying attention to his condition.
Shinobi staggered, fell to the floor without strength and croaked, in his voice there was panic and genuine horror: ”Senior Kando...emergency...the situation...”
Noticing that the fallen Shinobi was a member of the intelligence unit previously sent to Rouran, Kando frowned heavily.
Judging by the scene that unfolded in front of him, the news would not be good...
Kando looked at the scout and growled in disp.l.e.a.s.u.r.e: ”What could have caused you to panic so much? Did the Silver Flash rise from the dead, eh?!”
”Ah ... ah...”
The scout sighed heavily and looked at Kando, ” Senior, you...are you aware of this yet?”
