After hearing Nara Yūsuke's answer, Kōki nodded, mentally preparing himself for the upcoming battle.
He had just gone through a fierce battle. Although he was not injured and his strength had fully recovered, his mental fatigue would not disappear so quickly. He hoped that by predicting the upcoming battle, he could decide how much effort to exert, which would help him alleviate his mental fatigue.
"This is it. We'll wait here for the Sunagakure transport team to arrive." Nara Yūsuke stopped and found a spot that could hide the four of them while also providing a good view. Kōki and the others followed Nara Yūsuke and hid in the shade of the trees.
Half an hour passed like this, with Kōki and the other three remaining hidden in the shade of the trees by the roadside.
To allow Kōki to rest, Yamanaka Kenji was tasked with using his Sensory Ninjutsu to detect the enemy. Yamanaka Kenji shook his head at Kōki and the others, still unable to sense any movement.
Kōki and the others' expectant expressions also relaxed. They had been waiting for half an hour, and according to the intelligence, the Sunagakure transport team should have arrived by now.
Seeing his companion's disappointed expression, Yamanaka Kenji felt somewhat helpless; he truly couldn't sense anything. However, he didn't give up and continued to close his eyes and try to sense it.
A few minutes later, he suddenly opened his eyes and nodded to Nara Yūsuke and Kōki.
Upon receiving Yamanaka Kenji's signal, Nara Yūsuke immediately perked up and looked towards the end of the road. Kōki and Akimichi Tsuyoshi also smiled and focused their attention on the distance.
A convoy slowly appeared at the end of the road, with Sunagakure Jonin standing at the front. They looked around warily, accompanied by their squad members.
Behind the two Sunagakure Jonin was a supply convoy. The convoy was also guarded by Sunagakure, whose strength was probably at the Chunin level.
Upon seeing the convoy in person, Kōki and the others' eyes flashed with excitement. Although they had only waited for half an hour, the agonizing wait had been unbearable.
Fortunately, the people from Sunagakure finally arrived, and they were ready to fight a big battle.
While Nara Yūsuke was also excited, he remained vigilant and gestured to Yamanaka Kenji beside him, indicating whether there were any other ambushes behind the Sunagakure convoy.
Upon seeing Nara Yūsuke's gesture, Yamanaka Kenji nodded, then closed his eyes to continue sensing. After a short while, he opened his eyes again and made a gesture to Nara Yūsuke, indicating that there was no one else behind the Sunagakure transport team, only those in front of him.
After receiving confirmation from Yamanaka Kenji, Nara Yūsuke was relieved, relieved that the convoy in front of him wasn't a trap.
He was a bit scared by the previous ambush by Sunagakure. Just like before, he charged forward full of confidence, only to be surrounded by eight burly men with ill intentions when he arrived at the location. Who wouldn't be afraid in that situation?
It's better to be cautious; the more cautious you are in the Shinobi World, the longer you can survive.
Kōki and his team also saw the hand gestures Yamanaka Kenji made and were filled with confidence for their next move.
Gradually, the Sunagakure's convoy drew closer and closer. Closer still, they could see the cautious expressions on the Jonin of the two Jonin guarding the convoy, and their subordinates chatting and joking among themselves.
However, Kōki and the others patiently awaited their captain, Nara Yūsuke's, instructions.
Nara Yūsuke didn't act impulsively. He looked at the wary Sunagakure Village ninja and the unsuspecting Sunagakure Genin. He also wanted to take out the Sunagakure Jonin, but his main objective this time was to resupply.
He wouldn't order an operation until he confirmed that the convoy was indeed carrying supplies.
And so, the two Jonin from Sunagakure Jonin their squad past Nara Yūsuke and his group, while the convoy slowly followed behind.
Nara Yūsuke stared intently at the convoy that appeared before him, noticing the various medical supplies, food, and combat equipment it carried.
After carefully checking twice, Nara Yūsuke finally made up his mind and immediately signaled to Kōki and the others. Kōki and the others, who had been waiting impatiently, jumped out as soon as they received Nara Yūsuke's signal.
Fire Style: Majestic Destroyer Flame
" Super Partial Expansion Jutsu "
With Kōki and Akimichi Tsuyoshi leading the attack, and Yamanaka Kenji and Nara Yūsuke in charge of the control, the Sunagakure members of the convoy had no idea that Konoha's Anbu had secretly infiltrated this heartland of the Land of Rivers Konoha ambushed them on their supply route.
Furthermore, due to the sneak attack by Yamanaka Kenji and Nara Yūsuke, they were blocked by the combined use of Nara Yūsuke's Shadow Secret Techniques and Yamanaka Kenji's Mind Secret Techniques, and could only watch helplessly as Kōki and Akimichi Tsuyoshi destroyed their supplies.
"Stop, you bastards!"
"You Anbu of Konoha, I will never let you get away with this!"
For a moment, the Sunagakure's insults echoed along the entire road, but unfortunately, it was all in vain. If verbal sparring could win, what would be the point of having ninjas?
Faced with the Sunagakure's insults, Kōki and Akimichi Tsuyoshi moved even more swiftly, unleashing the " Fire Style: Majestic Destroyer Flame Arrow!"
After gathering his Chakra in his throat, Kōki spat out a fireball resembling a falling meteor towards the ground. Upon landing, the flames instantly spread, forming a sea of fire that ignited the entire supply convoy.
Both of the Fire Style Technique he used were given to him by Hiruzen Sarutobi. He had initially wondered how Hiruzen Sarutobi possessed Fire Style Technique from the Uchiha Clan.
Later, Hiruzen Sarutobi told him that these two Fire Style Technique were donated to Konoha by the Uchiha Clan as a token of their gratitude for receiving the position of Konoha Military Police Force, when the Second Hokage was still alive.
Because it was a B-rank Ninjutsu, Tobirama Senju didn't care at the time, and after recording it, he passed it on to Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Now, in order to enhance Kōki's strength, Hiruzen Sarutobi has taught him these two B-rank Ninjutsu.
Akimichi Tsuyoshi was equally unyielding, unleashing his " Super Multi-Size Technique," which uprooted several trees from the roadside and smashed them onto the already burning supply convoy, adding fuel to the fire.
The flames burned even more fiercely upon contact with the trees, the roaring flames emitting bursts of red light that shone on the faces of the controlled Sunagakure nearby, as if mocking their incompetence.
Worried about potential reinforcements from the nearby Sunagakure forces, Nara Yūsuke said to Kōki and Akimichi Tsuyoshi, "That's enough, we need to retreat."
After Nara Yūsuke finished speaking, Kōki and Akimichi Tsuyoshi nodded, preparing for one last, brutal strike before leaving. " Earth Release: Earth Flow Divide "
Kōki's Earth Release Technique cut a large crack in the ground, and the burning convoy tumbled down the crack.
Akimichi Tsuyoshi saw the supplies fall into the crevice, he immediately stomped on it, his gigantic foot landing heavily on the crevice, causing the ground around it to crack.
The shattered stones completely covered the crack. After doing all this, Kōki and Akimichi Tsuyoshi turned and left, while Nara Yūsuke and Yamanaka Kenji also released the secret technique and fled at high speed.
Without Nara Yūsuke and Yamanaka Kenji to restrain them, the Sand Ninja did not expect the Konoha Anbu to be so decisive, destroying the supply and leaving without even coveting the lives of the Sunagakure escort team.
Seeing this, the two Sunagakure Jonin not directly pursue Kōki. They feared that the Konoha Anbu would launch a surprise attack after they left. Since the supplies had already been lost, they couldn't bear the pointless death of the team escorting the supplies.
