Arrangements

Kangetsu held the map and showed it to Jingxia. Jingxia immediately said, "Lord Kangetsu, this is indeed a valley, and it is quite long! However, the interior of this deep valley is very narrow."

After he finished speaking, a smile appeared on the corner of Kangetsu's mouth. With such excellent terrain, I reckon the opposing Hagi clan won't be able to escape this time!

With that thought, Kangetsu immediately called out, "Inoue, what is the enemy's situation now?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes turned toward Kangetsu. From their first meeting until just now, Kangetsu had maintained a cold voice and an indifferent gaze. But at this moment, his tone had transformed into something fanatical—a wild, murderous voice that left everyone somewhat shocked.

However, this shock did not last long. Inoue immediately replied, "Lord Kangetsu, the situation is not looking good. The enemy is advancing toward us in a fan formation! They are searching for something, likely looking for us. Furthermore, the person leading them is that elite chunin, and besides the genin who appears to be out for training, he has ten other chunin with him!"

As he finished speaking, the fifty or so people following behind Kangetsu immediately drew their swords, ready for battle.

Kangetsu, however, frowned slightly and barked, "Who told you to draw your weapons? Sheathe them at once!"

Kangetsu was quite angry at this moment. In this silent forest, the animals had already fled due to the encroaching danger, leaving behind only the sound of the wind blowing through the trees. The sound was faint, but any ninja with exceptional hearing would have been able to pinpoint their location the moment those blades were drawn.

Thus, Kangetsu was furious. Cold and murderous, he turned his head, revealing his scarlet eyes. With a sneer, he snapped, "From now on, if anyone dares to act without my orders, you won't need the enemy to kill you! I will finish you off myself!"

As he spoke, the two tomoe in his eyes spun continuously. Everyone present was stunned, looking at Kangetsu with faces full of fear. The moment Kangetsu turned his head back, they all began to tremble. Yet, they were also shocked, for the eyes Kangetsu had just revealed were the Sharingan! And not just a single tomoe, but two!

Kangetsu didn't care what the people behind him were thinking. He studied the map once more and demanded, "Are those ten people trained and ready?"

Instantly, a man ran to Kangetsu's side and said, "Lord Kangetsu, it is done! All ten of them have mastered it!"

"Good! What is your name?"

Not knowing their names, Kangetsu had no idea how to assign the tasks.

The man immediately replied, "Lord Kangetsu, my name is Uchiha Watanabe. You can just call me Watanabe!"
