Dan Katō, flying through the air in soul form, saw everything happening in the camp.
Seeing his companions being brutally slaughtered, he flew over to support them without hesitation, completely failing to consider that his body was not far from the camp.
Dan Katō's soul passed through the bodies of several Sunagakure ninja like a ghost.
Each time he emerged from one of their bodies, those Sunagakure ninja collapsed and died as their consciousnesses were erased.
Even some of the stronger Sunagakure ninja would lose the ability to resist shortly after Dan Katō entered their bodies. Dan Katō would then control those bodies and turn them against the nearby Sunagakure ninja.
Before long, Dan Katō's support began to take effect.
The initially panicked Konoha ninja gradually steadied themselves, while Konoha ninja recalled from the defensive line arrived in time as well. Konoha began organizing a counterattack.
The two sides soon descended into a chaotic melee within the camp.
Dan Katō, who was controlling the body of a Sunagakure ninja, failed to notice several Sunagakure ninja being driven toward the direction of his body by Konoha ninja.
"Captain, our group is no match for those two Konoha ninja!"
"Captain, I can't hold on much longer!"
"Damn it, then fall back toward the woods! Let's use the trees as cover and fight them there!"
These three Sunagakure ninja all specialized in Wind Style, and they were being suppressed by the firepower of two Konoha ninja skilled in Fire Style. They could only fight while retreating toward the woods.
At that moment, raindrops as large as beans began falling from the sky. It was as though they were helping the three Sunagakure ninja, and the rain quickly grew heavier.
The Sunagakure captain's face lit up with delight at the sight of the rain.
