Although a distance of 130 kilometers wasn't enough to prove that Ido could completely escape Yakumo's control while in her Blood Clone state,
judging by Ido's current condition, she should at least be able to manage a few hundred kilometers.
And a radius of a few hundred kilometers was already enormous. Some countries in the Shinobi World were about that size.
At the thought of being able to move about without restraint, Ido laughed triumphantly. "Hahaha! I'm finally free of Yakumo's control!"
"Ido, what are you talking about?"
Suddenly, Yakumo's voice sounded in Ido's ear.
Ido was startled. "Y-Yakumo? How did you—"
As she spoke, Ido looked at Shinji.
As far as she knew, this ability to whisper in someone's ear like a ghost or god was something only their leader could do.
Yakumo gave a quiet snort. "Hmph. Lord Shinji helped me sense you!"
"Heh, is that so?" Ido gave an awkward laugh. Caught red-handed by Yakumo, she hurriedly said, "That was a misunderstanding. I was only joking!"
Yakumo said, "That's not a very funny joke!"
Ignoring the two bickering, Shinji was busy sensing Naobi.
Actually, Yakumo had been a little mistaken just now.
It wasn't that he had helped Yakumo sense Ido—or rather, it wasn't entirely his ability. He had only served as a go-between, pointing Yakumo in the right direction. It was Yakumo herself who had truly sensed Ido!
So even without Shinji, Yakumo would eventually have been able to sense Ido on her own.
And that raised another question: why did Yakumo have this ability?
*Did Yakumo use the Red Dragon Eye to mark Ido? A range of 130 kilometers is incredibly broad for a mark! What kind of Sensory Ninjutsu can do that? Even Naobi, supported by my Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan's Dojutsu, can't manage something
