Jinchuriki.
Steal.
Byakugan.
Steal.
For Kumogakure, good things belonging to other villages were such a pity. They had to be possessed by Kumogakure.
This world's most valuable things are Kekkei Genkai!
Steal, steal, steal!
Finally,
Kumogakure's reach also extended to Kirigakure. Haku's disappearance indicated that Kumogakure's higher-ups had become insanely covetous of Sora's so-called Ice Release Kekkei Genkai.
They even used Heavenly Transfer Technique to do such thing.
With Sora's combat power, he naturally didn't need to wait for any reinforcements.
Without a second thought, he stepped with Shunpo and disappeared from the spot, speeding off towards Kumogakakure's direction.
Since the opponent used the Heavenly Transfer Technique, the transmission target location was most likely Kumogakure's main base, or some other heavily guarded place.
After Sora left, several Kirigakure's higher-ups soon arrived at the scene using Body Flicker.
"Haku is missing?"
"Damn it!"
"Where is Mizukage-sama?"
"Did Sora go to Kumogakure alone?"
Those who arrived via Body Flicker, like Mei, Yagura, Meigetsu, and the others, exchanged glances and roughly understood what had happened.
"Do we need to support Mizukage-sama?"
An Anbu wearing an animal mask nearby asked Yagura with great concern.
After Sora left, Yagura, who had taken over as the Jonin Commander, was effectively the most powerful Ninja in Kirigakure.
"Organize forces as soon as possible!"
Yagura said with a grave expression, "I can roughly guess Sora's destination, and that's even more worrying. We need to exert enough pressure on the Karra Island battlefield front line against Kumogakure. That's the only way to alleviate the danger Sora might face."
"Yes. With Haku-chan missing, Sora most likely went directly to Kumogakure."
Mei said decisively, "Senpai, I'll take a few Anbu Teams to support Sora. As for other matters in the village, I leave them to you!"
"I'll go with you too."
Meigetsu also said firmly. She couldn't just watch Sora in danger and do nothing.
The expressions of the several Kirigakure's higher-ups present were all extremely grave.
Because they were all Sora's trusted confidants, they knew each other well and understood the close relationship between Haku and Sora.
If something really happened to Haku, who knows what kind of terrifying upheaval might occur.
Moreover…
Right in the core area of Kirigakure, the Mizukage's relative was kidnapped so brazenly. This was also like slapping Yagura and the others hard across the face.
'Could it be that without Sora, we couldn't even manage something as simple as protecting the village's people?'
'Damn it!'
'Kumogakure is just too damnable!'
"In any case…"
"Support Mizukage-sama at all costs!"
Yagura growled through gritted teeth, "We must give Kumogakure a severe lesson! Those bandits actually dared to steal from our Kirigakure! They are truly damned, deserving of a death by a thousand cuts!!!"
Yagura was originally quite a hot-tempered person. With an incident of such vile nature occurring, it was a testament to his restraint that he didn't lose his temper on the spot.
Soon,
The orders from Yagura, Mei, and Meigetsu were relayed. The Kirigakure's Anbu, Jonin Team, and the border troops of the Combat Division all began to mobilize.
Large numbers of Ninjas moved about, and frontline combat troops began assembling, preparing to exert pressure on Kumogakure's border.
On the other side,
Supported by his Expert Level Shunpo, Sora's travel speed was astounding. He could cover hundreds of meters in almost the blink of an eye, essentially reaching a supersonic state.
For the power system of Ninjas, this was quite remarkable.
The speed of sound was also a very difficult threshold for Kage-level Ninjas to cross. Most high-level Kage-level Ninjas could only barely maintain sonic speed movement during combat.
Maintaining sonic speed while traveling was basically impossible.
Speed was also extremely important for combat.
Just like how Minato with his Flying Thunder God Technique made the entire Ninja World live in fear. Even in the late stages, there were Otsutsuki Ninjas who could simply rely on basic speed to overwhelm Six Paths-enhanced Sasuke and Naruto, leaving them unable to fight back.
When it came down to it, flashy things like Ninjutsu and Kido were just for play before reaching the top tier. In battles against final boss-level opponents, what really mattered were the basics!
What do basics rely on?
Speed ensures hits, power ensures damage!
While moving, Sora's Reikaku was fully extended. With his current Reiatsu level, his perception range could reach an astonishing 20 kilometers, basically allowing him to take in everything within that distance.
It wasn't much different from a high-power satellite radar.
Therefore,
Sora didn't have to worry about being ambushed by anyone, unless the opponent's strength surpassed his, or they could cross the 20-kilometer distance and complete an attack before he could react.
