"Everything will be alright."
Lin also smiled and said that they must learn to be optimistic, so that in this world where they are alone, there will be no hope left.
"Speaking of which, I haven't met Minato-sensei yet. I'd like to show him how much I've improved."
Obito flashed a glimpse of his white teeth.
"Humph."
Kakashi snorted, a rare smile appearing on his lips. Rin seemed to notice it and smiled faintly in return.
"set off!"
"Oh!"
The sudden order startled Obito for a moment, but he quickly followed up with a shout.
The Konoha Boy Scouts continue their journey at this moment.
Orochimaru was directing the operation from behind the scenes, his snake-like pupils also looking in this direction.
He knew that after suffering a loss once, the people of Wuyin would be more vigilant, and this time it wouldn't be so easy for the Boy Scouts to complete their mission. This also meant that fewer Boy Scouts would be able to return alive this time!
Orochimaru turned his gaze back. He still had a lot of things to deal with.
"Jiraiya, you'd better hurry up."
Orochimaru said calmly, "Konoha is currently at a great disadvantage."
Meanwhile, the Konoha Boy Scouts had all set off. Just like their first mission, Guy and his two companions, based on intelligence, began their ambush along the initial route.
Guy's team is quite strong, second only to Kakashi's team. Guy has undeniably reached Chunin level combat power, while Shiranui and Ebisu are also close to Chunin. Such a team is definitely quite good among the Boy Scouts. Other teams are at most a combination of three Genin, and perhaps one person close to Chunin.
Logically speaking, the mission for Kai and his two companions should be a sure thing this time, just like the first time. Their mission is again one Chunin and four Genin.
This is already considered quite difficult; they were assigned this mission precisely because Guy and his two companions are relatively strong. As for Kakashi's team, that mission involved two Chunin and five Genin, making it the most difficult mission yet.
Just like the first time, Kai and his two companions lay in ambush perfectly. As the supply team entered the encirclement, the three of them attacked at the same time.
Using the same combination ninjutsu, Guy took down the Chunin first. Although it wasn't an instant kill, the three's excellent tactical skills were well-coordinated, and the opposing Chunin couldn't withstand their combined attack. As for the opposing Genin, they didn't react quickly enough.
Then they used the same trick again, and Guy and his two companions defeated the four genin with only minor injuries.
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique".
A fireball struck, and the supplies began to burn, the flames signifying the perfect completion of Kai and his companions' mission.
At that moment, another sound pierced through the flames and struck Kai and his two companions, causing them to freeze in place.
It was a very strong aura, one after another, coming together and rushing towards us all at once.
"The brats of Konoha."
"Nice to meet you all, come and play games with the older brothers."
Kai and his two companions could barely breathe. Turning their heads, they saw the six people scattered behind them—in the trees, on the ground—
Chapter 236: Give it to me now
"Report, Lord Orochimaru, the Six Ninja Swordsmen who were active on the battlefield have disappeared. I'm afraid they're up to something."
Orochimaru was handling matters at the camp. The situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly, and now the intelligence had been sent over.
When Orochimaru heard this news, he frowned. Due to the lack of troops, Might Guy and high-level combatants like Kurenai Yuhi, who were stationed here, had been sent to the front lines to fight the enemy head-on. This would at least buy them a lot of time.
Right now, Konoha only has Orochimaru who hasn't gone into battle yet. He's sitting here to prevent any surprise attacks from the enemy from breaking through this defensive line. If that happens, Konoha's only advantage in terms of material support will be gone.
Has anyone made time for this?
The disappearance of the Six Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, a vital fighting force of Kirigakure, is certainly not a good thing.
"Lord Dai has already been mobilized, and there are simply not enough people available."
"Be prepared for an attack at any time. Have the people in front step back a little and be ready to provide support at any time."
As mentioned earlier, the Six Ninja Swordsmen are a formidable force. If their collective disappearance at this moment was for a surprise attack, then Orochimaru alone might not be able to withstand them.
Once Konoha's only advantage is broken, then Konoha will be in danger.
Orochimaru had arranged everything and was ready for battle. At this time, Jiraiya was still on his way back, and it would probably take some time. If the enemy really wanted to launch a surprise attack, Orochimaru would have to buy them time.
And indeed, just as Orochimaru said, the idea of the Six Ninja Swordsmen disappearing was indeed on their minds, but no one expected that when they took a detour, they would run into Guy and his two companions.
"Fire Release: Flame Curtain".
Shiranui reacted quickly and immediately made her move. Her hand seal speed was quite good, and she unleashed a Fire Release concealment ninjutsu.
Towering flames erupted from the ground, completely obscuring the vision of the six people in front of them. Kai and his two companions seized the opportunity to run away.
"Run!"
Shiranui shouted, and Kai reacted quickly, grabbing Ebisu and running away.
Ebisu is the weakest among them, both in terms of combat ability and speed.
"The six of them were carrying ninja swords of different shapes. Those guys are probably the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist Village."
Shiranui knew a little about them; he had heard of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, a group with considerable fame. Each member was a formidable expert, capable of standing alone and proving difficult to defeat.
Kai didn't know who the Seven Ninja Bladesmen Shiranui was referring to, but he could sense the danger emanating from those six people.
The pressure from that high-pressure aura was felt more deeply by Kaiko, a taijutsu-type ninja, than by Shiranui.
That was definitely not an enemy they could handle.
"Where are you running off to, you little devils?"
With a hint of mockery, Yan Mu was sliced open with a single strike, and the six opponents moved simultaneously at an extremely fast speed, catching up with Kai and his two companions in no time.
"coming!"
Shiranui cried out, but the next second her voice turned into a scream.
"We've got you."
With a sweeping kick, Shiranui was sent flying, crashing to the ground and rolling several times, kicking up a cloud of dust.
"Cough cough."
In that instant, Shiranui trembled on the ground and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
The difference in strength is too great; one strike would be enough to finish them off.
"Next!"
Kai's hand moved instinctively, surprisingly blocking the extremely fast whip kick.
The opponent was also surprised, but the next second Kai was crushed.
Although Guy is a taijutsu-type ninja and his physical abilities are excellent due to his rigorous training, each of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist is a taijutsu specialist. While they may not have the same ninjutsu talent as Guy, they are renowned for their swordsmanship, and their taijutsu skills are absolutely top-notch.
Kai gritted his teeth, the force from his hand almost catching his breath. It was truly immense, and not only that, the opponent's taijutsu was imbued with chakra, making its power even more formidable.
Kai couldn't withstand the impact and was sent flying.
boom!
Kai crashed to the ground, and Ebisu, whom he was holding, was also sent flying and tumbled several times. His injuries were probably the least severe.
"hateful."
Kai didn't fall down; his head was covered in blood, his clothes were tattered, and a bunch of wounds were exposed.
Kai felt the pain in his arm, his brow furrowed tightly. It felt like the bones in his hand were about to break.
"Kai!"
Ebisu also had scrapes and his clothes were torn. He got up and looked at Kai.
"coming."
Kai didn't have time to worry about that. The air around him was surging, and he knew someone was coming, and they were moving very fast.
it's here!
Relying on instinct, Kai retaliated.
"Leaf Whirlwind!"
Snapped.
"it's a pity."
Guy's Leaf Whirlwind was easily caught, and the person in front of him smiled. The next second, Guy was kicked.
Kai felt as if his abdomen had been pierced, and he vomited up his stomach contents. He dragged himself along the ground for more than ten meters, leaving a trail of blood in his wake.
Kai trembled all over, his body bent over, clearly in great pain.
"Kai!"
Ebisu propped himself up and limped over, tears welling in his eyes, as if he had come to understand his fate.
A strong wind blew, and Ebisu turned his head. The person rushed over and grew larger and larger in Ebisu's eyes.
Snapped!
Ebisu closed his eyes, and the next second, there was this deep, settled sound.
I opened my eyes again.
"The child's adolescence has only just begun, so let me be the one to fill the quota."
Ebisu looked at the tall and imposing figure, whose attire was very familiar; Might Guy, who had just protected him, was dressed in the same way.
"Oh ho, the Blue Beast of Konoha?"
Might Guy stood right in front of Ebisu. He was the one who arrived just in time. The person who threw the punch stepped back, and the others revealed themselves one by one.
"interesting."
Pipa Juzo, carrying the conspicuous guillotine on his back, revealed a pleased smile.
The others also revealed their true colors one after another.
Kusanagi no Yaito, Kurihara Kushimaru, Munashi Jinpachi, and Hozuki Mangetsu, these members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, stepped forward one by one.
It's worth mentioning that the user of the Black Fang has changed, and it's the previous user, Raiga Kurosuki. The first user of the Black Fang, Ringo Ameyuri, was the successor of the Black Fang, but unfortunately passed away due to illness. Now, Raiga Kurosuki has taken up the sword again, and he is much stronger than everyone else present. He has even stepped into the threshold of Kage level, and is the only person here to have stepped into the Kage level.
