What he was referring to was the forest outpost that Senju Chen judged as "possibly a trap."
Sarutobi Kenzo frowned and was about to scold.
"Okay."
But Senju Chen spoke first, even with a trace of innocent smile on his face, "Since Inuzuka Clan Jonin is so confident, then the credit will be given to you. However, just in case, please be sure to carry the highest level distress flare."
Inuzuka Ryō was stunned. He didn't expect this kid to be so easy to talk to. He laughed evilly, "No need! Just wait for my good news!"
After saying that, he led his three team members and rushed into the rain without looking back, as if heading for an easy victory.
Watching their disappearing figures, the smile on Senju Chen's face slowly faded.
He turned to Shisui beside him and ordered.
"Shisui, follow them, bring flares and my "Kunai", and send a signal immediately if necessary."
"Yes." Shisui immediately nodded in agreement, brought the flare, and a Body Flicker Technique immediately followed the Inuzuka Clan team.
Less than half an hour.
A dazzling red firework suddenly exploded in the rain curtain in the distance, shrill and desperate!
That is the highest level distress signal from Konoha! It means that the team has encountered an enemy that cannot be resisted, is in desperate situation, and may be annihilated at any time!
"It's the direction of Inuzuka Ryō!" In the camp, Sarutobi Kenzo's face changed drastically, "That bastard! What happened to him?!"
The Konoha Ninjas behind him were in an uproar and were preparing to assemble their troops.
"All teams, stay where you are."
In the midst of this chaos, Senju Chen's voice was not loud, but it clearly overcame all the noise.
He stood under the eaves of the tent, with rain dripping down the edge. His small figure looked extremely calm at this moment.
He looked at the red signal slowly dissipating in the air, slowly raised his hand and pointed in another direction.
"Senior Kenzo, now, lead your people to pull out the valley stronghold."
Sarutobi Kenzo turned around suddenly and looked at Senju Chen in disbelief. "What?! Then Inuzuka Ryō and the others..."
Senju Chen interrupted him, his tone was cold and emotionless.
"Senior Inuzuka Clan attracted the attention of Iwagakure's main force for us. Now, their most heavily defended valley stronghold is the most empty."
"You... you are... using the lives of your companions as bait?!" A young Konoha Ninja exclaimed, his eyes full of horror and anger.
"I am now the supreme commander, and I order you to set out immediately. If you have any problems, you can go to my teacher after completing the task, or you can complain to the higher-ups after you return to the village."
Seeing the crisis facing his comrades, Senju Chen remained unmoved and assigned them tasks.
Cruel, cold-blooded or ruthless...
They felt that they no longer knew what words to use to evaluate the Senju Chen in front of them.
Sarutobi Kenzo He is a ninja, and obeying and completing tasks is his primary goal.
He stopped his agitated subordinates, turned to the remaining people and said "obey orders"
But before going out, I still took a deep look at Senju Chen.
"After the mission, I will report this situation to Lord Orochimaru."
After saying that, they led their team and quickly rushed towards the mission location.
Looking at Sarutobi Kenzo leaving, and then looking at the distress signal, Senju Chen dodged and disappeared.
In the clearing in the forest, the Earth Release barrier "Rock Prison Technique" is already covered with spiderweb-like cracks. With every impact, a large amount of gravel and dust falls down, hitting the four Konoha Ninja in the barrier.
Inuzuka Ryō's Ninja Dog and "Kuromaru" stood in front of him covered in blood, growling menacingly in their throats, but their slightly trembling hind legs revealed that they were at the end of their strength.
"Hahaha! Konoha's elite? I think it's Konoha's stupid pig!" Outside the barrier, a Iwagakure Jonin with a scar on his face, commanded his men to continue attacking with a grin, "Push harder! Crush this turtle shell to pieces for me!"
Inuzuka Ryō's eyes were red, staring at the arrogant face outside.
Regret gnawed at his heart like a poisonous snake.
He never imagined that Senju Chen's judgment would be so accurate. There were not only traps here, but also a carefully arranged encirclement! When they stepped in, nearly twenty Iwagakure Ninjas immediately appeared around them, including even two Jonins!
His proud "Fang Over Fang", with the opponent's exquisite Earth Release, was completely destroyed without even touching the enemy's clothes Kakuzu.
"Captain... we..." One team member's face was pale, with blood foam hanging from the corner of his mouth, and his voice was trembling with despair.
"Even if we die... we will bite off a piece of each other's flesh!" Inuzuka Ryō bit his back molars and poured the last Chakra into his arms.
He was ready to lead his teammates in the final and most meaningless charge when the barrier shattered.
At this moment, the red firework shot by Shisui in the distance, representing the highest level of request for help, finally exhausted its last light in the rain and slowly dissipated.
"Ask for help? It's too late!" Iwagakure Jonin The smile on his face became more cruel, "Break it for me!"
"Boom--!"
With a loud noise, the Earth Release barrier exploded to pieces!
Countless gravel mixed with mud were shot out like shrapnel. Inuzuka Ryō and others subconsciously closed their eyes, preparing to welcome death.
However, the expected severe pain did not come.
Instead, there was a moment of dead silence.
Inuzuka Ryō opened his eyes suddenly, and the scene in front of him made him freeze.
A black flash of light appeared out of thin air in the center of the battlefield.
It was a thin figure, with his back to them, standing quietly on the messy land. The rain wet his short black hair, making him look like a lost child.
Senju Chen.
"Are you Konoha empty?" Scarface Iwagakure Jonin was stunned at first, and then burst into even more disdainful laughter, "You actually sent a brat to the battlefield to die! Boys, kill him! Tear off his head and kick it like a ball!"
The contemptuous command echoed in the rain.
Senju Chen did not look back, he just slowly raised his head and looked around. In those clear eyes, there seemed to be an invisible stream of data flashing through, instantly analyzing the terrain of the entire battlefield, the number of enemies, their positions, and even the Chakra strength of each person.
Thirty-one enemies, two Jonin, thirteen Chunin, and sixteen Genin. The formation is dense, with the Earth Release ninja as the core, building layers of defense.
"Kill!"
Iwagakure Jonin, who was rushing at the front, smiled evilly, holding Hand Seals in his hands, and a thick earth wall rose up in front of him. At the same time, he held Kunai in his other hand and stabbed Senju Chen in the back.
Integrating offense and defense is Iwagakure's usual and steady tactic.
However, in the face of absolute speed and power, this "steadiness" seems so ridiculous.
"Rasengan."
