The moment the Tunnel's north entrance collapsed, someone shouted for Shisui to pursue Kuriyama.
Kuriyama had already slipped into the side wall's Maintenance Passage.

The area half a mile beyond the south entrance lay outside the original authorization.
The Recorder immediately noted that personnel could cross the boundary to carry out necessary rescues, but their arrest powers would not expand with it.
The Uchiha team members used earth walls to separate the carriages from the
