Two hours later, another root team arrived at the scene.
The psychic spell that allowed them to contact each other at fixed times was not activated. They followed the tracking method that they had prepared and arrived at the last place where the team stopped.
"Flowing Moon, Mountain Ghost, Wind Bug, Cloudchaser, all members have died.”
The team members checked the scene of the explosion and found charred bodies.
"There were traces of the Earth Evasion Ninjutsu Technique and the Detonation Talisman at the scene. One of the Earth Longspear techniques killed the captain, Flowing Moon.”The team members who were investigating the scene reported in detail.
After hearing the report, the captain couldn't help but ponder. He looked at Flowing Moon, who had been pierced through the waist by the Earthen Spear, and narrowed his eyes.
The two captains roughly knew the details of this mission.
Lord Tanzo expressed his concern and specially sent two Jounin level ninjas to lead the team.
To be honest, ordinary Jounin, or even elite Jounin like Kakashi who had made a name for himself, could very well fall at their hands.
Such an elite ninja team, who killed them?
The captain looked at the corpse of "Flowing Moon" and felt a chill. He didn't think he was stronger than "Flowing Moon".
If the enemy could kill Flowing Moon's team, they could naturally kill their team as well.
After pondering for a while, the captain said," Even though Lord Tanzo believes that Uchiha Dojo attacked his teammates and that the target was hiding his strength, from the scene…"
"Earth Evasion Ninjutsu." He pointed at the Earthen Spear that had pierced through Flowing Moon and the hole that had been created by the Beheading Technique not far away.
"Fight with physical techniques." He pointed at the crack on the ground.
"These combat abilities aren't all of the target's, so we can't rule out the possibility that there are foreign ninjas.”The captain thought for a moment and instructed one of his team members,"In short, report the situation back to the headquarters first. We will continue to pursue.”
"Understood." The team member nodded.
A few minutes later, the root team, which had finished reorganizing, continued to set off.
……
"The team led by Liu Yue was completely wiped out?”
Tuan Zang's heart sank when he saw the new report.
"What happened?" He looked at the ninja kneeling on one knee with a cold gaze.
To any village, a Jounin was a precious first-class combat force.
Moreover, this kind of cooperative Jounin combat team was even more precious to the root that was limited in every aspect.
"There hasn't been any updates yet.”the ninja replied.
Thump! Thump!
Tuan Zang slammed his walking stick on the ground and said coldly,""Investigate, investigate clearly for this old man! My men can't die in the Fire Country for no reason!”
"Yes, sir!" The ninja nodded and left the office.
Tanzo frowned as he flipped through the information and compared it to Uchiha Domo's information. He looked suspicious and muttered to himself,"What happened?"
"The elite squad that I trained, even if it's at Kakashi's level, there's a high chance that we'll lose them.”
"Who is the enemy?"
"Could it be a team from another Ninja Village? But if we do that, the commotion will be too big. It's impossible for us not to be discovered…"
……
……
"Oh, here we go again."
Tang Wuxing walked out of the forest. The shadow clone's expression changed and he drew the ninjato on his back.
"It really is you? Uchiha Hall has none."
Behind him, the other root team stood on the branches and looked at Tang Wu from afar.
'Why are you blindfolded? Also, why did he have to split into shadow clones?'
The team leader was a little puzzled, but Tang Wu's shadow clone did not give him much time to think.
"Illusion-Shura Eye!"
Three magatama appeared in the eyes of the shadow clone, and a scarlet light shone from them.
Clang!
As soon as the sound of a saber being drawn rang out, the figure had already disappeared from where he was.
The terrifying Blink Spell made the leader of the Root Party widen his eyes. He could only rely on his experience and instinct to block it.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A bright blue lightning bolt flashed in the sky.
No, it wasn't lightning. It was the lightning chakra on the saber!
The leader of the root team looked terrified. The bitter sword in his hand barely blocked the first slash of the shadow clone.
The saber collided with Kunai, and he was sent flying.
"Ho…Ho…"
Captain Root fell to the ground and couldn't get up. Half of his body was paralyzed by the electric current on the Shadow Clone Blade. The opponent's speed was completely beyond his reaction speed. He could only use the most clumsy way to block.
"Have you already developed your lightning escape to this extent?”Captain Gen 'en knelt on the ground and glanced at his team members. Two were injured and one was dead. They had basically lost their combat ability.
He tried to use words to buy time and let the numbness pass. He looked at the shadow clone and said,"Bladesmanship, Thunder Evasion, Thunder Instant Body, the combination of these three, you have never displayed these abilities in Muye. It is indeed as Lord Tuanzang said, you are hiding yourself with ambition.”
"That's right!"
The shadow clone nodded and disappeared again. In the next second, he appeared behind Captain Root.
A masked head flew high into the air. The electric current had heated up the wound, but no blood spilled out.
"Captain!"
"Be careful!"
The two injured members belatedly shouted.
They looked at the shadow clone nervously, their eyes filled with fear.
" Instant Thunder Body, what's your relationship with Uchiha Serene Water…" The members of the root were still probing.
Puff!
The shadow clone's ninja blade, which was flashing with electricity, slashed at his head. He had no intention of talking nonsense.
Almost instantly, he cut off the neck of the last surviving root.
Because the speed of the Thunder Instant Body was too fast, it exceeded the reaction limit of the human eye. The shadow clone seemed to be split into two and existed in two places at the same time.
"Thunder…"
The last member of the root team died. His eyes widened, remembering the last lightning he saw.
This would be the deepest memory in his mind.
The shadow clone collected the resources on their bodies and made two seals with one hand before taking a deep breath.
"Fire Escape, Grand Fireball Technique!"
The blazing fireball smashed down, causing the scene to fester and burn black. No traces could be seen.
The heads of the four Root-tier warriors were also taken care of.
"There's no need for that. I just wanted Mu Ye to know that I was the one who did it.”Tang Wu shook his head.
"But it is still necessary to hide our moves.”The shadow clone said.
……
That night, the body of the root member was sent back to Muye.
Tuan Zang hurriedly summoned the people of the mountain clan to investigate his brain.
He extracted the memories of this afternoon from the remaining heads of Flowing Moon and Mountain Ghost.
A young figure was drawn and placed in front of Tuan Zang.
"Uchiha no!" " I knew it." Tanzang's face darkened." The Uchiha Clan can't be trusted. The first traitor has appeared."”
