Following the Same Method

On this side, Qian had just finished modifying a hidden piece.

On the other side, that Iwagakure Anbu had started fighting a group of Mist Anbu.

Indeed, that Iwagakure Anbu had grasped the timing extremely well. Before those Mist Anbu could close in, he had taken the first step and cast "Water Release: Hidden Mist Technique," cutting off everyone's sight and perception.

However, those Mist Anbu were no easy opponents.

To say nothing of the fact that "Water Release: Hidden Mist Technique" itself was Kirigakure's signature ninjutsu, and Mist Ninja had long since grown used to fighting in such an environment, the strength of those Mist Anbu alone meant that a mere Hidden Mist Technique could not possibly trap them.

Thus, as expected, the battle broke out.

Qian watched the Mist Anbu before him, whom he had just tampered with in secret, immediately rush over there after hearing the sounds of fighting. Without any hesitation, he silently followed as well.

A single hidden piece naturally could not satisfy his requirements.

Next, he would follow the same method, seek out opportunities, and perform the same modification on the other Mist Anbu.

Boom—

Before he had even approached the battlefield, the sound of a huge explosion reached him.

Qian could tell that this was the sound of an Exploding Tag detonating.

And this was only the beginning.

After that, the sounds of all kinds of ninja tools clashing, ninjutsu bombarding, and the shouts of both sides as they exchanged blows entered his ears one after another.

With the help of the Byakugan, through the thick fog, Qian saw that the Iwagakure Anbu was currently being surrounded and attacked at close range by three Mist Anbu.

In addition, two more were assisting from the side, throwing various ninja tools from time to time
