Cleaning Up the Battlefield, News of Kakashi

Seeing Taiseki in Guy's hand, the group immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Genma was the first to react.

He rushed behind the last Iwagakure chunin and pressed a senbon to his throat.

"Don't move."

The man trembled all over and did not dare move at all.

"If anything happens on the way, prioritize your own safety."

"If necessary... deal with the prisoners before retreating."
