"Pfft--!"
Black Crow spurted out a mouthful of blood, and his whole body flew backwards at a speed several times faster than when he retreated.
He rolled and bounced on the sea surface for more than ten times, creating huge splashes, and finally managed to stabilize his body, half-kneeling on the sea surface, panting violently, and blood kept pouring out from the broken parts of his mouth, nose and arms.
With just one blow, he was seriously injured!
'Power... speed... not a dimension at all...'
Black Crow felt endless chill and despair in his heart. This was not a battle at all, but a crushing!
Whoops--!
Whoops--!
Black Crow gasped rapidly, and his eyes slowly showed a hint of madness!
Lin Ze's huge body followed closely behind, preparing to beat Black Crow to death with one claw.
But at this moment, Lin Ze keenly captured Black Crow's hand hidden behind him, which was knotting a strange Hand Seal's hand with difficulty and weirdness!
At the same time, the absolutely crazy look in Black Crow's eyes, even with a hint of relief, instantly touched an unfriendly memory in Lin Ze's mind -
That was Land of Grass three years ago. He was also besieged. Although he tried his best to kill all the enemies, at the end he was almost killed by a Iwagakure who rushed up and blew him up with Explosive Tag wrapped around his body.
'Forbidden Technique who died together?!'
Lin Ze's heart sounded alarm, and without any hesitation, he immediately gave up the plan of crushing him at close range.
The huge dragon head suddenly raised, and the blazing heat instantly gathered deep in the throat!
At the critical moment of Hand Seals, Black Crow was about to detonate all his Chakra and drag Lin Ze to hell. When he saw the familiar and despairing flame light up again, a trace of astonishment and extreme unwillingness flashed in his eyes!
"No--!"
He let out a desperate roar and tried to speed up the completion of the technique.
But it's too late.
Boom--!!!
A condensed pillar of fire, like a sword of heavenly punishment, instantly cut through the space at a speed faster than sound, completely engulfing Black Crow and the dangerous Hand Seal he had not yet completed!
Terrifying flames and shock waves completely covered his location!
The light dissipated, leaving only a slowly rotating whirlpool and steaming water vapor on the sea, and nothing else.
Kumogakure "Crow" unit Elite Jōnin, Black Crow, died.
Six Kumogakure Elite, the entire army was wiped out.
The sea surface gradually returned to calm, and only the burnt smell lingering in the air proved what a tragic and one-sided battle had just occurred.
Lin Ze's huge body slowly shrank, the green steam gradually converged, and finally turned back into a human body.
He stood on the sea, panting slightly, and his face was a little pale. Maintaining Complete Body Azure Dragon and turning on Fifth Gate at the same time was extremely taxing on Chakra and his body.
Fortunately, his physique is far superior to that of ordinary people. With his strong physical foundation, he was able to hold on and did not lose strength on the spot.
After a quick scan, Lin Ze confirmed that there were no survivors or any obvious remains, he quickly dived into the sea, Vice Admiral fished out the corpses of several Kumogakure, and then burned them all, once again achieving the achievement of crushing the bones and raising ashes.
Then, not daring to stay any longer, he immediately turned around and galloped away in the direction of Land of Fire.
Lin Ze increased the speed to the extreme and did not dare to let down his guard at all along the way.
After all, no one can guarantee whether the huge noise of the battle just now will attract other Ninjas operating in nearby waters.
It wasn't until it was confirmed that there were no pursuers behind him, and Land of Fire's coastline was already in sight, that Lin Ze's tense nerves relaxed a little, and his high-speed running speed also slowed down slightly, and he began to have enough energy to think about everything that had just happened.
'This mission is really... an unforeseen disaster.'
Lin Ze smiled bitterly in his heart.
Sneak into Land of Lightning to investigate the movements and supply points of the "Thunderclap" troops. This task was personally assigned by Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi. It is a routine intelligence collection work during wartime. In theory, there is no possibility of being framed by insiders.
The preliminary investigation of Squad B-5 was also very smooth, and the locations of several suspected supply points were successfully locked. The last Valley camp was just a confirmation step.
'It can only be said that I was too unlucky to bump into Kumogakure's 'Crow' troop, and the leader was Black Crow who knew my mask.'
Lin Ze thought helplessly, maybe there was something wrong with the supply point itself, otherwise no Crow would have appeared, but the main target was definitely not him, it was just a coincidence.
He recalled Black Crow's excited and murderous eyes when he recognized his "Aoda" mask.
'Toroi's status in Kumogakure is obviously not low. I'm afraid this bounty has been hanging inside Kumogakure for a long time. If he is recognized this time, and he wears this mask to perform tasks in the future, the risk factor will be greatly increased.'
'Would you like to wear a different mask?'
Lin Ze Although he is not afraid of Kumogakure, he thinks it is quite cost-effective to change the mask to reduce the number of things to target. Maybe he can get another mask as a backup when he goes back.
In addition, this time they were discovered by Kumogakure. As long as Kumogakure is not a fool, they will definitely realize that the movements of "Thunderclap" troops have been exposed, and the relevant intelligence lines and supply points will inevitably undergo large-scale adjustments and transfers.
'The subsequent investigation tasks will probably be more difficult, and there is a high probability that they will not be handed over to Squad B-5 again.'
Lin Ze speculated that after all, their team had already alerted the enemy, and Land of Lightning would be too much of a target.
Hiruzen Sarutobi is likely to hand over this task to other ANBU Squad who is lurking deeper or has just been transferred.
'I just don't know how Fox is doing with them...' Lin Ze His thoughts turned to his teammates.
The situation was critical and running away separately was the best option.
Fox deliberately led the main force of pursuers towards him, creating life for Gray Wolf and Night Owl. However, they were pursued by three Jōnin and three Special Jōnin. Their strength should not be underestimated.
Fox Although he lost an arm, he is experienced and has many means of saving his life.
Gray Wolf and Night Owl are slightly weaker, but if they cooperate with each other, they have a chance to escape.
'I hope they can return to their base safely.'
Lin Ze can only wish in his heart. In a war of this scale, the power of an individual is too small. Even he cannot guarantee that he can escape unscathed every time.
After all, Third Raikage, known as "Strongest Spear" and "Strongest Shield", will die on the battlefield in the near future.
Shaking his head, temporarily suppressing his worries about his teammates, Lin Ze began to review the previous battle.
The battle took place at sea, with a wide field of vision. He had carefully sensed and observed that except for the six people Black Crow, there were indeed no other living people or obvious reconnaissance tools.
After the battle, he quickly checked the scene and found that all the corpses had been vaporized by Dragon Breath, leaving no obvious Identity markers or equipment remains.
'But...' Lin Ze frowned slightly, 'We can't guarantee it 100%.'
He remembered the You Muzi he met when Land of Wind was there. Even if he could instantly kill her, she could leave Hidden Contingency behind. Not to mention that Kumogakure, the troops responsible for intelligence and Assassination, must have some weird ways to save their lives or communicate.
