"Sister Claw, when can we go to the first line of defense?”I've been itching all over for the past ten days. If I could get to the first line of defense, Sunset, Black, and White Teeth to carry out their missions, how great would that be? It would be safe and secure. An A-rank mission would be completed in the blink of an eye, and it would be effortless.
"Stop dreaming. Completing the current mission is more important.”Kakashi gave me a cold blow.
"Kakashi is right. With your current strength, you'll be sending yourself to the wolves. You won't have the chance to team up with White Tooth and Sunset! Besides, are you doubting my leadership ability? Damn brat, think I'm wise…" Sister Claw roared at me furiously, and I immediately agreed.
"Hmm? Stop." Sister Claw seemed to have discovered something. Kakashi and I immediately stopped and vigilantly observed our surroundings.
"Strange! There seemed to be someone passing by. The smell of sand should be sand.”Sister Claw was puzzled." There's a wide buffer zone between the two lines of defense, and this is the edge of the line of defense, close to the border of the Country of Fire. Why would the Sand Ren be here? He should be at the first line of defense.”Kakashi and I exchanged a glance. We were both shocked. The Sand Ninja definitely wasn't here for a vacation. He definitely had some purpose.
"Sister, is that our defense zone ahead?”I asked.
"No, but in this situation, I think we should react. Follow me. He hasn't gone far.”Sister Claw immediately decided to catch up with Sharen and obtain information.
We followed the scent left behind by the sand-renters and chased after them. We didn't expect that we would get further and further away from our stronghold and closer and closer to the border. Finally, after more than an hour, the sand-renters stopped. He carefully cleaned up the traces nearby and searched around vigilantly.
"Damn it, Sharen actually built his stronghold here.”Sister Claw suddenly cursed in a low voice. Kakashi and I were extremely shocked when we heard that. There was a sand-rending base here. Although this place was extremely close to the border and could be used as the territory of the Fire Country, what was the purpose of building a base here?
"How did you know?" Kakashi asked. "Is there anyone else?"
"Yes, they might all be underground because there are five hidden sentries around that Sand Ninja. They are all Genin, but we can be sure that this is definitely the Sand Ninja's stronghold.”Sister Claw said with certainty.
So that was how it was. It was indeed not easy to find the Sharen's stronghold here. Hiding soldiers here could be very useful at a critical moment. "Sister, what should we do now?"
"What else can we do? Since we're already here, of course we'll infiltrate to obtain information. Come closer." Sister Claw's expression was calm. Kakashi and I were a little excited. In the past, we had always been invaded, but now, we were taking the initiative for once.
We were already very close. We could vaguely see Sharen standing in an open space and forming a seal. Suddenly, the ground seemed to sink and Sharen jumped into the ground. It seemed that the stronghold was indeed underground.
" There are three hidden spots. They're in front of us on the left, right, and the front. There are two at the front. I'll go, the two Kakashi on the left will go, and Zuoyi on the right will take care of them. Let's move!" Sister Claw drew a simple map on the ground, showing the distribution of the hidden posts. Black Wolf stayed in place and guarded, while we sneaked towards our respective targets.
I circled to the right and observed as I snuck in. The wind brought the scent of the enemy and I had confirmed the approximate range." Hmm? Trap? Small tricks." In front of me was a pitch-black thread. I carefully circled around it and discovered that the hidden pillar was hiding on a luxuriant tree. It was already very close to me. If I got closer, I would activate the illusion.
On the tree, Sanin and Shinin were looking left and right. Nirvana Abode Technique!" A white feather floated in the air. The Sand Ninja's gaze became dull as he swayed on the tree. I couldn't miss this opportunity. I jumped up and held Kunai in my hand as I instantly approached the Sand Ninja. Under his terrified gaze, I slashed his neck, causing blood to splatter everywhere. The Sand Ninja covered his neck and wanted to say something, but his strength was quickly lost. He gradually lost consciousness and fell unwillingly. I supported him and then hugged the corpse and jumped down. After careful inspection, I obtained some Ninja equipment. Sanin and Genin were only in their teens, and their strength was at the Elite Genin level. No wonder they were able to undo my illusion, even though it was already too late.
After dealing with the corpse, I snuck back to meet up with Kakashi and Sister Claw.
