"Inside the bamboo forest, there are a total of seven ninjas. Three are patrolling around the secret base, and four are hiding using the Hiding Technique, maintaining the damaged barrier."
Gojo Yoru and Tsunade were lying on top of the giant rock, their bodies hidden by a camouflage cloth colored like the rock—this was the most basic Hiding Technique.
They were currently looking at the bamboo forest ahead, the Slug Sage's voice echoing in their ears.
In front of the Slug Sage's sensing, the layout inside the bamboo forest was practically nonexistent.
"There's a barrier, but no Chakra energy wall, which means it's not a defensive barrier like the Three-Cornered Seal or Four Violet Flames Formation, but a sensing barrier." Tsunade analyzed in a low voice, "This kind of barrier not only covers the ground but also extends underground. Even Earth Body Flicker can't evade its sensing. Even if you successfully infiltrate, Chakra fluctuations will be exposed."
"It seems infiltrating silently is impossible."
Tsunade turned her head to stare at Gojo Yoru, stating her plan with a serious expression: "We'll attack together later. Take out those seven guys as fast as possible, then search them to see if they have antidotes. If the secret base below really is a pharmaceutical workshop, once we enter, ignore everything else. Quickly gather everything related to medicines and formulas and let Katsuyu-sama take them back to Shikkotsu Forest."
Gojo Yoru didn't nod but suggested, "Since time is tight, leave those seven guys to me. I don't know much about medical knowledge, so I might as well buy you time, Tsunade-sama."
"Ninjas responsible for this kind of guard duty are at least Chunin level. Can you handle it?" Tsunade looked a bit skeptical.
"Don't worry, I'll win." Gojo Yoru grinned.
That confident look made Tsunade slightly stunned.
Thinking of the Slug Sage's evaluation of him, and then of the Flying Thunder God Technique and his Body Flicker speed surpassing her own, Tsunade couldn't help but nod and instruct: "Alright, those seven guys are yours! If you can't beat them, don't linger. It's not certain if the secret base below is a pharmaceutical workshop. Even if this plan fails, we have other ways to get the antidote."
"Understood." Gojo Yoru made an OK gesture.
"Let's go!"
Tsunade was also filled with fighting spirit.
As the words fell, Gojo Yoru and Tsunade simultaneously turned into blurs, rushing towards the bamboo forest ahead.
Gojo Yoru was the fastest, leaving Tsunade far behind in the blink of an eye, shooting into the bamboo forest like a curved bolt of lightning.
Since he wasn't fully intangible, Gojo Yoru's Chakra was instantly detected by the four Rain ninjas maintaining the sensing barrier.
"Attention, intruder detected."
A Rain ninja disguised as a rock in the bamboo forest used a walkie-talkie to inform the patrolling Rain ninjas of the discovery.
The three Rain ninjas instantly tensed up, about to take out signal flares to call for backup.
The voice from the walkie-talkie sounded again, making them breathe a sigh of relief and dismiss the idea.
"Only one intruder, Chakra intensity... veteran Chunin."
"Should be a reconnaissance team. Capture him, or leave his head intact, waiting for Hanzo-sama..."
Another Rain ninja responsible for maintaining the barrier was just about to issue instructions when his voice suddenly stopped.
In front of him, a figure had appeared at some point, waving at him through the disguise of the Hiding Technique: "Hello."
"Enem..."
The Rain ninja only managed to utter half a word before his face was grabbed by a hand. A huge force pulled him out of the fake rock.
Instinctively wanting to resist, the Rain ninja found his limbs immobile.
The sensing barrier, losing one maintainer, instantly returned to its damaged state.
"Call for help!"
The other three Rain ninjas responsible for maintaining the barrier shouted hurriedly.
Of the three Rain ninjas patrolling around the entrance of the secret base, one immediately tried to take out a signal flare to fire into the sky and request support.
Swish swish swish—
At this moment, three sounds of breaking air reached their ears.
Three kunai flew in a triangular formation, one in front and two behind.
Just glancing at the kunai, that Rain ninja continued to take out the signal flare.
Slash—
Before the kunai could approach, a figure used Body Flicker to appear in front, drawing a ninja sword and slashing out, preparing to block these ninja tools for his companion.
The blade struck the leading kunai, but instead of a clang of metal collision or a crack of shattering, it made the sound of tearing fabric and blooming flesh.
The Rain ninja swinging the sword widened his eyes, his gaze full of astonishment, his brain crashing.
Because the kunai in front of him had actually turned into the companion who was warning them just a moment ago.
Why did he appear here?
Why did he take a blade for a kunai?
In just this moment of daze, the other two kunai had already flown past him on the left and right.
Flash—
A black flash mixed with dazzling gold flashed past the Rain ninja's eyes.
Darkness and heaviness invaded his vision and consciousness.
As his head fell to the ground, the Rain ninja's body still maintained the posture of swinging the sword.
He didn't even know he was dead.
This way of dying was much happier than the two companions behind him.
The companion appearing out of thin air also stunned the other two patrolling Rain ninjas on the spot.
However, the flying kunai woke them up.
The two Rain ninjas instinctively used Body Flicker to dodge, leaping into the air to the left and right.
While moving backward in the air, they witnessed the death scene of that companion with their own eyes.
A black figure appeared out of thin air, shooting a dazzling golden beam from his hand, sweeping across the companion's neck.
The golden beam seemed to possess indestructible power, instantly separating the companion's head from his body.
This incredible scene shocked the two.
"Watch your backs!"
Suddenly, the warning voice of the sensing ninja came from their earpieces.
The two subconsciously looked behind each other, and their pupils constricted instantly.
In the bamboo forest behind them, a figure stood at some point, maintaining a throwing posture, as if having thrown something.
Their bodies didn't feel the sound of sharp weapons entering, nor the sound of flak jackets blocking.
Before they could guess what the opponent threw, a kunai crossed into their vision.
Then, the familiar black flash, carrying a dazzling golden light, flickered back and forth in their vision.
Slash slash slash...
With a series of tearing sounds, scenes of flying limbs presented themselves.
They witnessed their companion being cut in half at the waist again, along with scenes of severed limbs and decapitation.
The speed of separation for limbs, heads, and bodies was too fast. By the time the severe pain hit, the two Rain ninjas had already lost the ability to scream.
Only the Rain ninja who was hit by the Sealing Jutsu and not killed by his companion's slash watched with trembling pupils and terrified eyes. He stared at the figure who landed with his back to him, holding a golden light sword, surrounded by pouring blood rain and falling corpse pieces.
At this moment, in the eyes of this Rain ninja, this figure was undoubtedly the most terrifying devil in the Ninja World!
