"Sorry, the person you are calling is currently unavailable. Please try again later."
The automated message repeated from the phone as Shinnō frowned at its screen.
"What is wrong with these guys? I can't reach a single one of them."
Mukade's earlier disappearance could have been attributed to the peculiar nature of the ley line, but now that he couldn't reach Haido either, something was wrong.
Besides, he had just ordered the Sky Ninja to launch another attack, stirring up hatred so he could absorb dark chakra.
What he hadn't expected was that this attack would be intercepted almost as soon as it began.
The Federation's ninja had brought out a batch of brand-new antiair ninja tools, which inflicted devastating losses on his Sky Ninja.
Forget launching an attack-they had nearly been wiped out outright.
This time, he had clearly underestimated the Federation's people.
Granted, he had already collected a fair amount of dark chakra.
But the dark chakra he currently possessed was nowhere near enough to take on the legendary God of Shinobi and Asura of the Ninja World.
Not to mention the Sage of Six Paths standing behind them.
That was why he needed Haido's help to gather more dark chakra.
"Could something have happened to Haido? But I only spoke to him a short while ago. Could they have found him so quickly?"
Suddenly, looking at the phone in his hand, he realized something.
"No! Damn it, I let my guard down."
He crushed the phone in his hand and casually tossed it away.
How could he have forgotten? This phone was a product of the Shinobi World Federation, supposedly made by the Chiba Commerce Association.
Who knew whether those people had left some kind of backdoor in it?
Perhaps they had found Haido through a backdoor
