You've Been Discovered
According to intelligence gathered by their scouts, the Kirigakure army was stationed in the Land of Waves, about fifty miles ahead.
"It's bad, Lord Raikage! Our scouts have also encountered the enemy! They've sent a distress signal!"
Just then, Raikage's secretary Mabui, came over and solemnly informed Raikage of the matter.
Who is leading this?
Kirigakure would send out reconnaissance teams, and so would he.
Moreover, while sending out reconnaissance teams, he also equipped them with raiding squads for protection.
The raiding squad members are all elites; who could possibly make them all send out distress signals?
Mabui replied, "It's Ye Liangnai, they're no match for them!"
"What?! It's that brat! Damn it!!!"
Upon hearing the name Ye Liangnai, the Fourth Raikage immediately lost his composure, and a fierce aura emanated from him.
"Sarui, you go with Tenshin Killer B Bee, and take five hundred elites to provide support!"
"Remember, avoid direct combat with them. Make sure the reconnaissance team returns safely!"
Despite his hatred and excitement, the Fourth Raikage immediately arranged for rescue operations.
It's clear that he's quite wary of Ye Liangnai.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have sent Killer B out as well, and they wouldn't have told them not to engage in direct combat.
Before this, who had received this honor? No one!
Only one Ye Liangnai, received this honor.
"Yo, make sure they come back! Oh, don't worry, bro! Yeah!"
Killer B immediately started humming in a rap style, looking quite excited.
It has a sense of freedom, like birds soaring in the sky.
"By, you'd better not do anything reckless, and don't let me find out that you've taken this opportunity to escape and run amok in the Shinobi World!"
Upon seeing his appearance, the Fourth Raikage immediately issued a warning.
"I didn't even realize it, oh, that my older brother saw right through my thoughts. It was so unexpected, oh yeah!"
Killer B continued rapping, until the Fourth Raikage, unable to bear it any longer, shooed him away.
Ye Liangnai here!
"Haha, I'm so lucky to have run into you guys!"
"As expected, I knew the Raikage's men wouldn't be completely silent!"
"Impressive! I almost didn't even detect you. Your stealth abilities have indeed improved a lot!"
"However, I can only apologize to you. You've been discovered, so all our efforts have been in vain!"
Now that they've discovered the scout team and raiding team from Kumogakure, Ye Liangnai definitely won't let them go back alive.
The heavy loss of intelligence personnel has a significant impact on the outcome of the battle.
"Damn it, why is this guy leading the team himself? Does he have that much free time?!"
Faced with Ye Liangnai's pursuit, these Cloud Ninja couldn't help but want to curse.
Ye Liangnai had lived in Kumogakure and caused trouble there; the Kumogakure Cloud Ninja knew his strength all too well.
Even if he brought a group of people, we wouldn't be a match for him on our own.
"Trying to run? Not so easy! Water Release Team, stop them!"
Ye Liangnai gave orders to the Mist Ninja behind her.
"Water Release: Raging Waves!"
Immediately, a group of Mist Ninja appeared, formed hand seals, and slapped them onto the water's surface, injecting a large amount of Chakra.
The next moment, a roaring wave surged past the Cloud Ninja and crashed down with the force of thunder.
It seemed to devour them all; its power was terrifying.
With the aid of water, the power of Water Release can be greatly amplified.
"Oh no, retreat quickly!"
The Cloud Ninja didn't want to be buried inside; if they were, they would at least be pulverized.
"Lightning Release Squad, let them taste what it's like to have nowhere to stand!"
After speaking, Ye Liangnai, along with the other Lightning Release ninjas, simultaneously formed hand seals in the same rhythm and shouted, "Lightning Release: Gratitude Wave!"
Instantly, a burst of lightning spread rapidly across the water, turning the sea where the Cloud Ninja had landed into a torrent of lightning.
"Ah!!!"
Few of the Cloud Ninja had time to react and dodge; they were all hit and screamed in agony.
The approaching, dodging Cloud Ninja—
"Fire Style Team, attack!"
Zabuza was no mere figurehead; following Ye Liangnai's lead, he targeted the Cloud Ninja who had dodged the Lightning Release.
"Fire Style: Divine Fire Technique!"
"Fire Style: Dragon Fire Technique!"
A crimson flame engulfed them all.
"Ah!!!"
Another scream erupted as a group of Cloud Ninja fell into the sea like dumplings being dropped into a pot.
"Bastards, I'll fight you to the death!"
Upon seeing this scene, the eyes of the Cloud Ninja who had been struck by lightning turned red, and they roared as they charged forward.
"We succeeded!"
Even faster ninjas, their bodies enveloped in lightning, appeared behind Ye Liangnai and slashed at his neck with a single blade.
Moreover, it wasn't just one or two people, but four in total, appearing and attacking simultaneously.
"Die!"
There was absolutely no chance of survival, which made Zabuza's expression change.
The four assassins all exuded the aura of Special Jonin; they were very strong.
Even Kage Level expert could fall victim to this if they're not careful.
Even if those four were killed, the enraged Cloud Ninja would still be too much for them to handle.
They're not like winter melons, standing still and letting others chop them down.
"Flash Erasure - Waltz!"
Facing the four attacks coming at the same time, Ye Liangnai calmly swung her sword and said.
All the crowd saw was Ye Liangnai unleash a flash of cold light, then vanish into the encirclement in Body Flicker Technique.
Then he appeared in front of the group of Cloud Ninja were rushing towards him, and like a tiger pouncing on its prey, he pounced into the flock of sheep and slaughtered them all.
Chop, hack, stab, thrust!
Shoulders, elbows, knees, legs!
It was as if his entire body was covered in weapons.
Ye Liangnai turned the killing into a delightful dance, killing one person with every step, without a drop of blood staining her handkerchief!
No one can stop Ye Liangnai!
He was as graceful as the wind, yet possessed the power of thunder. His figure was ethereal and unpredictable, yet strong and powerful, a perfect blend of strength and gentleness.
At that moment, the four Cloud Ninja who were besieging Ye Liangnai suddenly started bleeding from their necks and chests.
Then, in disbelief, he collapsed onto the sea surface and was instantly and severely injured.
"Hateful!!!"
The four men, filled with resentment, tried to get up again, but Zabuza and the allied forces would not let them succeed.
"Puff puff puff!"
The merciless blade took their lives.
"Captain Zabuza, shall we go and support Ye Liangnai?"
A member of the Allied forces asked a question.
It looks rather dangerous that Ye Liangnai is facing so many enemies all by herself.
"Let's just stay put and wait. These enemies aren't enough to harm Ye Liangnai!"
Zabuza, however, showed no intention of joining them.
He was afraid that Ye Liangnai would directly treat him as an enemy!
Moreover, if they join in, wouldn't that disrupt Ye Liangnai's rhythm? That wouldn't be good!
A wise person helps others achieve good, not evil!
In just one minute, the Cloud Ninja reconnaissance team and the surprise attack team were completely wiped out.
