About a hundred miles away from Yunyin Village, in a low mountainous area, a battle was coming to an end.
The two sides fighting were on one side Kizaru's teammates Sarutobi Shinnosuke and Hatake Sakumo, and on the other side a ten-man elite team led by the Third Raikage.
Half an hour ago, after the Third Raikage received the news of the attack on the village, he asked the elite team to continue to the border while he returned to the village.
Sarutobi Shinnosuke and Hatake Sakumo, who had been hiding in the hinterland of the Land of Thunder, near the route leading to the border from Kumogakure Village, discovered the team and determined that the Third Raikage was not around, so they decisively launched an ambush.
A shadow-level strongman who is proficient in assassination paired with an elite jounin with comprehensive abilities, who can make ambushes and sneak attacks with mental calculations and unintentional intentions, can cause huge damage.
In just the first wave of attacks, the ten-member elite team of Yunyin Village killed two people, seriously injured one person, and suffered minor injuries to three others.
In the ensuing frontal battle, Sarutobi Shinnosuke relied on his excellent all-round ninjutsu to contain the enemy head-on, creating opportunities and time for Hatake Sakumo who had been hovering around the enemy.
With his fast body skills and sharp sword skills, Hatake Sakumo can be said to be chopping melons and vegetables, one sword at a time, completing five consecutive cuts.
In the end, only two elite jounin who were good at ninjutsu were left in Kumogakure Village with fighting power.
The two stood back to back, looking warily at Sarutobi Shinnosuke and Hatake Sakumo who were blocked at both ends.
These two elite jounin from Hidden Cloud Village are both clansmen of the Third Raikage. They have learned the thunder escape chakra mode, and at this moment their bodies were covered by thunder and lightning.
"Do you Konoha ninjas want to start a war?" One of the jounin said sternly with an affirmative tone.
The Country of Fire has always been the biggest enemy of the Country of Thunder, and they have invested the most in spying on Konoha Village.
Through the previous confrontation, the Kumogakure Murakunin roughly guessed the identity of his enemy.
Blocked at both ends, Sarutobi Shinnosuke and Hatake Sakumo did not speak. After the two looked at each other, they launched attacks at the same time in tacit agreement.
Hatake Sakumo's teleportation technique is extremely fast and is the best in Konoha. He almost appeared in front of the enemy as if teleporting.
But at this moment, there is a person who is faster than him.
A golden light flashed in the sky, and just when Hatake Sakumo was about to slash the enemy with his sword, the golden light rushed down.
Two long legs glowing with black metal appeared out of thin air and stepped on the heads of the two elite Jonin of Kumoyin Village, directly stepping them into the ground.
Hatake Sakumo jumped into the air and was about to swing his sword. When he saw Kizaru suddenly appearing, his expression was startled and he immediately stopped his attack.
"I'm not too late!"
Standing in the big pit he had stepped on, on the dark red soil, Huang put his hands in his pockets and looked up at the two team members above the big pit.
Silently putting the ninja sword back behind him, Hatake Sakumo immediately observed Kizaru's physical condition.
Following basically the same movements as Hatake Sakumo, Sarutobi Shinnosuke, who was standing on top of the pit, was also observing Kizaru.
The clothes were covered in blood, but upon closer inspection, no signs of injury were found.
Seeing this, both of them couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
"Come up! Kizaru!" Sarutobi Shinnosuke said.
With a bend of his knees, Kizaru jumped up from the pit and landed next to Sarutobi Shinnosuke.
"Are you hurt?" Sarutobi Shinnosuke asked with concern, looking at Kizaru who jumped to his side.
Twisting his head, Kizaru smiled and replied: "No."
Nodding, Sarutobi Shinnosuke looked at Hatake Sakumo who was standing across the pit. At this moment, he was finishing up the wounded Kumogakure ninja who was lying on the ground.
"Let's retreat!"
"clear!"
As the words fell, the figures of the three people disappeared instantly.
...
The entire waist and abdomen, as well as the left chest were wrapped in gauze, and the third generation Raikage, whose upper body was naked, was standing on top of the ruins with an angry look.
Damn it! I'm going to kill that bastard!
The veins on his face popped out, his casserole-sized fists were clenched tightly, and the Third Raikage's heart was filled with rage.
In this attack, Yunyin Village suffered heavy losses.
There were hundreds of dead and injured ninjas, and a large number of buildings and equipment were turned into ruins.
Among these sacrifices, the one that saddened the Third Raikage the most was the death of Todai, the genius of the younger generation of the village and his carefully trained domestic minister, Todai!
Since assuming the position of Raikage at the end of the First World War, the results of the Third Raikage's painstaking management and development for 20 years have been lost in less than an hour.
"Do you have any clues about the enemy?" Turning to look at the elders and several senior officials beside him, the Third Raikage asked with suppressed anger.
After several senior officials looked at each other, they all turned their attention to the elder.
Facing so many eyes, this elder, who has experienced many big things, behaved very calmly.
"I have a guess about the enemy's identity."
"What?" the Third Raikage asked eagerly.
"The enemy comes from Konoha." Although it was a guess, the elder's tone was very certain.
"Konoha?" When he thought of the character of the Third Hokage of Konoha Village, the Third Raikage was not very convinced of the elder's guess, "Do they have the guts?"
"The ninja who attacked the village this time has the ability to fly and used ninjutsu that I have never seen before. Those ninjutsu are extremely fast, powerful, and emit a dazzling light." The elder said while recalling the previous battles.
.
"This person's performance is very close to the information we have collected about Konoha's most recent new genius, Shimura Kizaru!
Moreover, after being assassinated by us twice, both he and the Leaf Village have reasons for revenge!"
"Konoha...Shimura Kizaru!" Also recalling the scene of fighting the enemy in his mind, the Third Raikage compared the scattered information about Shimura Kizaru that he had previously mastered, and found that it seemed to match!
But there is still a problem that the Third Raikage cannot fully confirm.
That is, according to intelligence, Shimura Kizaru from Konoha Village is not even ten years old this year.
A kid less than ten years old not only launched an air raid on the village alone, killing hundreds of ninjas, but also dozens of jounin including Dodai.
Moreover, this person also seriously injured himself in an ambush after attacking the village.
How is this possible? Is there really such a monster-like genius in the world?
"That Shimura Kizaru is not even ten years old this year!" Looking at the elder, the Third Raikage reminded him.
"That's the village founded by Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara." The elder reminded him in a sighing and solemn tone.
Senju Hashirama, Uchiha Madara!
These two names alone made the Third Raikage feel pressure.
Those were two monsters who had the power to sweep the entire ninja world decades ago!
Could it be that in less than 30 years since the two people died, a third monster will be born in Konoha Village?
Moreover, this monster also possesses flight, high-speed movement, and mysterious ninjutsu that makes it immune to attacks.
A cold feeling could not help but rise in his heart. At this moment, the Third Raikage really did not hope that the enemy really came from Konoha!
