After following the shadow man for dozens of kilometers, Sakumo's group finally stopped at the edge of the Land of Fire...
"Teacher Sakumo, its master is within a thousand meters of here."
Hanakei Kaede pointed at the shadow man in the distance, which had stopped moving, and explained. Since she was not yet proficient in developing this new ability of Shadow Release, its accuracy could only be maintained within a thousand meters.
Still, Hanakei Kaede's new ability to find people was already incredibly impressive. After all, no ordinary tracking ninjutsu could achieve something like this...
"Mm."
Sakumo nodded, then turned his gaze to Yuzuru.
"Yuzuru, I'll leave the rest to you!"
As the eyes of the squad, only Yuzuru could observe enemies from afar without being detected.
Yuzuru said nothing, merely nodding. Then he activated his Byakugan, bringing everything within a thousand meters into his field of vision.
Very soon, Yuzuru saw seven ninja with Chakra far exceeding that of Chunin at the three o'clock direction.
"Found them. Three o'clock!"
After locking onto them, Yuzuru immediately informed Sakumo and the others.
"Yuzuru, lead the way!"
After hearing that, Sakumo immediately spoke to Yuzuru.
"Yes!"
Yuzuru immediately used the Body Flicker Technique and rushed toward the target. Sakumo, Mingxi, and Hanakei Kaede naturally followed close behind.
At the edge of the Land of Fire, near the border with the Land of Rivers.
Kakuzu was currently surrounded by the six members of Blood Leech's group. A natural waterfall stood several hundred meters away from him.
"Kakuzu, you can really run!"
"You nearly ran out of the Land of Rivers!"
Blood Leech's entire body was shrouded in eerie Blood Mist, obscuring both her figure and face. Only her icy, furious voice could be heard.
"Why waste so much breath? Just kill him already!"
