Chapter 75 - – 73 Finally Caught Them!
Of course, many strong people can defeat Kuroto in the current Shinobi World, but very few of them are capable enough that his Shadow Clone couldn't even perceive him/her.
And specifically, to the Cloud Village, there is only one such person.
"Could it really be Yondaime Raikage-Sama?" – guessed Kuroto as he put his Kusanagi into the scabbard.
Judging from the Cloud's reaction so far, Team-11's plan has undoubtedly been a success.
If, as Kuroto guessed, Raikage-Sama has also come out personally, it just proves that Cloud Village cannot ignore their movements anymore.
"If Raikage-Sama has also joined the siege, it would be best to stop disturbing Cloud's transportation line." – thought Kuroto.
Yondaime Raikage is not just some ordinary ninja, in terms of speed, he is unparalleled in the current Shinobi world.
Even Yondaime Hokage-Sama might have been inferior to Raikage Sama if not for the 'Flying Thunder God Technique'.
Facing someone like him is undoubtedly looking for death, which is something Kuroto doesn't want to experience.
And since Team-11's plan was to harass the transportation lines at the rear of the Cloud Assault Troops, so Kuroto will obviously not choose to continue if Raikage-sama himself has come after them.
In the face of powerhouses like the Raikage-Sama, as long as he lives, it would be his victory.
So, without further ado, Kuroto gathered all his equipment and retreated to the small cave where Team-11 was hiding.
…
Land of Hot Water, Team-11's Retreat Point.
Shisui, who returned not long ago, saw Kuroto-San's arrival, asked, "Kuroto-San, how did it go on your end?"
Kuroto smiled: "I managed to eliminate 3 teams this week, how about you?"
Shisui replied, "As expected of Kuroto-San, even when I searched for the whole week, I only managed to eliminate 1 team!"
Shisui doesn't have long-range detection ability like Kuroto, so his searching efficiency is naturally inferior to Kuroto. Not to mention he hasn't even recovered all his combat power, so he has to be very cautious in choosing the right target, therefore, less effective.
Guy, who stayed at the cave to recover and train, whispered at this time, "Next time I will also come with you!"
Because of their injuries, Guy and Kakashi weren't responsible for carrying out the harassment work, so they have been training and recovering for the past few days.
It's just that with Guy's energetic temperament, it is difficult to stay silent listening to Kuroto and Shisui discuss the results of the attack on Cloud, it makes him feel kind of itchy.
"You better stay here!" Kuroto shook his head, and immediately mentioned how his Shadow Clone disappeared inexplicably: "I suspect that Raikage-Sama himself has arrived at the Land of Hot Water to eliminate us."
Shisui said in a surprised tone, "Kuroto-San, what did you do to Raikage-Sama?"
Shisui is now really worried about what Kuroto-San might have done to Raikage-Sama. In his opinion, the strength that Kuroto-San showed back at the valley, was definitely more than enough to not only fight but also suppress Raikage-Sama.
And if something happened to Raikage-Sama, the conflict between Konoha and Cloud will escalate to an all-out war.
However, Shisui's reaction left both Guy and Kakashi dumbfounded.
After a silence when nobody spoke, Kakashi asked weakly, "Uh… If Kuroto met Raikage-sama, we should be worried about him, not about the Raikage-Sama, isn't that the case?"
Guy also nodded in agreement, "Obviously, Raikage-Sama is not something he can handle yet!"
Kuroto also helplessly glanced at Shisui, and secretly thought, "Shisui, do you have some sort of misunderstanding about my strength?"
Unlike the Raikage-Sama who was somewhat arrogant and reckless in the original series, the current Yondaime Raikage who was totally overwhelmed by 'Yellow Flash' in the third Shinobi War should be quite cautious.
And fighting against a speed-type ninja, not to mention the cautious one, it would be extremely difficult for Kuroto to do something.
If he had the support of the giant Tenseigan on the moon, Kuroto wouldn't have been that worried, but without it, by simply relying on his own chakra, just being able to survive is more than enough of an achievement.
What's more, there would definitely a large number of Cloud Elites around Raikage-Sama. So, anyone with the idea of seeking trouble with the other party would most likely be an idiot in Kuroto's books.
After weighing the situation, a little, Kuroto said to the members of the Team-11, "By now we have already over fulfilled the task, the Raikage-Sama himself is here, the risk of continuing of stay in the Land of the Hot Water is much greater, so I propose to retreat to the Land of Fire immediately."
Shisui also said, "I agree!"
After a little bit of consideration, Kakashi also nodded.
…
Land of Hot Water, on a high mountain crevice.
Yugito Nii was standing at a high cliff with an extremely eager expression.
Not long after, a Cloud Jonin ninja came out of the crevice and said, "This should have been the hiding spot of the Konoha ninja who attacked the Transportation Unit."
Yugito Nii quickly asked, "So, were there any clues left behind?"
Jonin nodded, "Although no direct clue is left, there are traces of a smell, but that should be more than enough!"
As he said that, the Jonin walked to the edge of the cliff and whistled. contemporary romance
Upon the whistle, a small skylark covered in unique silver feathers flew out from a distant tree, and after covering a few laps in the air, it firmly landed on the Jonin's shoulder.
The Jonin commanded the skylark to smell the scent in the crevice, after which he threw the skylark high in the air, the skylark took the opportunity to fly and after circling around the crevice a few times, it flew in a direction.
The Jonin said to Yugito Nii, "It found the trace, in that direction."
There was only one word from Yugito Nii, "CHASE!"
Instantly, a dozen ninjas turned into afterimages following the skylark.
…
Land of Hot Water, Outside the small Cave where Team-11's retreat point.
A dozen ninjas arrived outside the cave one-after-another.
One of them, with the best perception skills, activated his sensor Jutsu and said to the other ninjas around him: "There are 4 people inside the cave, all of them are above Chunin Class, they should be the Konoha Anbu Black Ops Team-11."
Yugito Nii stared at the entrance and asked, "Are there any traps placed?"
After, sensing a little, the ninja shook his head, "There seems to be no trap outside the cave, but many weak Chakra reactions are coming from inside the cave, it is difficult to determine what exactly they are."
An older ninja frowned, "It's most likely a trap?"
Yugito Nii said bitterly, "They have been playing around with us for quite long, now that we finally have some traces of the enemy, I will break through it even if it is some trap!"
Thinking about the fact that these Anbu were responsible for undermining all of Cloud Villages' efforts and plans, the anger in heart boils just like burning lava, and it is about time for it to finally erupt.
So, under the leadership of Jinchuriki, the group of ninjas broke into the cave.
As soon as they entered, they noticed 4 people from the Team-11, hurriedly packing up, seeing their actions Yugito Nii grinned viciously as she said, "Huh… I finally caught your group of mice hiding in this hole!"
As the Nibi's Jinchuriki, she likes the closed and narrow environment. Here, she can not only display the agile and dextrous characteristics of her tailed beast form but also cut off the enemy's escape route. So, finding Team-11 hidden here was more than what she could have asked for…
