It was possible that improper treatment methods could lead to death. Such things had happened before.
"Do you think they have the ability to complete this mission?"
He looked at the medical ninja around him. Sending them to the battlefield for on-site rescue would not be a problem, because medical ninja were treated as prisoners of war on the battlefield.
Unless absolutely necessary, neither side would kill them. It was not only because medical ninja could save others, but also because training one required a great deal of time and money.
Their ransoms were therefore extremely expensive.
That was under the premise that they did not encounter such dangerous concealed weapons.
Clearly, the concealed weapons Chiyo had set up were already beyond their ability to neutralize.
Sending them over would not yield the result he wanted; it would only cost them their lives.
"Let him go."
Hearing that voice, everyone instinctively turned around and discovered it was Orochimaru.
He knew Muzan's true identity. Even a Tailed Beast Ball could not kill him, so Chiyo's poison and concealed weapons had no chance of killing Muzan.
Even if they wanted to stop him, Orochimaru was in charge of the entire Land of Wind front. They could only comply with Muzan's request.
As Muzan's escorts, they needed to remain by his side at all times.
Moreover, they were heading to the edge of the battlefield this time, where they were very likely to encounter enemy ninja.
The desert was freezing at night, and with poisonous creatures hidden beneath the sand, even the Jōnin had to proceed carefully.
But seeing Muzan's rapid pace, they could only grit their teeth and follow him.
Fortunately, the area had already been inspected once, and there were no quicksand pits or traps.
"There are sounds of fighting ahead."
