"War!!!"
"War!!!"
The Cloud ninja in the camp had no idea what had happened, but when they heard all the higher-ups in command shouting, they could not help shouting along. The cries spread through the entire Kumogakure camp like a contagious disease, and nearly ten thousand people began roaring in unison.
The shouts shot straight into the clouds, slightly startling those in charge of scouting and gathering intelligence. They hurried back to camp and reported the news to Ronglin.
"Pass down my order. Prepare for a full-scale battle!!! The people of Kumogakure are ready to fight us to the death!!!"
