Knowing it was a conspiracy, they proceeded with extreme caution at every step, worried that a large number of people might be lying in ambush. Their strategy was to send a group of ninjas ahead to scout first, allowing the forces behind them to follow only after confirming there was no danger. This was meant to reduce the level of risk.
Of course, this approach had certain drawbacks.
Their marching speed was far too slow, but it was a necessary measure. The AB Combo at his side had voiced plenty of complaints.
There was no need to mention the Raikage's son. He had inherited all his father's strengths and flaws. His power was beyond reproach, but he was even more reckless in action. As the Raikage put it, there was nothing a fist could not solve; if there was, then activate Lightning Release Chakra Mode!
As for the other one, setting Killer B's unpleasant personality aside, he was somewhat calmer than A in his conduct. Yet he possessed all the flaws of youth. With the power of a Tailed Beast, he had become overly proud and had never suffered any major setbacks.
After all, Killer B was still young at this stage. With his elder brother and the Raikage above him bearing the pressure, Killer B did not need to concern himself with the village's major decisions. His role was simply to show off his muscles!
"You're definitely overthinking it. Unless someone deploys the Nine-Tails, they won't be able to hold us here."
A stood at the very front, looking toward the commanders farther back. There was an unwritten rule in the Shinobi World: the more tails one had, the stronger one was. With the Eight-Tails' power and a complete Tailed Beast Transformation, only Konoha's Nine-Tails could deal with them.
