Chapter 207: Time and People


    The sky was covered by dark clouds at some point in time, and heavy rain could fall at any time.


    "How is the situation?"


    "Seven bright sentries, three hidden sentries, and many stones are covered with explosive talismans. There are also a few ces with wire hanging, either traps or rm bells."


    Gekkou Hayate said quickly and concisely.


    "How afraid are we to be ambushed?" After hearing this, Aoba couldn''t help butin with a headache.


    This was only one of the outer areas. The deeper they went, the greater the resistance they would encounter. It was estimated that the other directions were also simr.


    "What should we do? Do we do it?" Gekkou Hayate asked.


    This kind of peripheral defense was at most GeninChhunin, so it was unlikely that Jonin would appear.


    In addition, he had already found most of the traps when he was invisible, so even if it was three to ten, there was a high chance of sess.


    The most important thing was that if it rainedter, his stealth effect would be greatly reduced.


    However, at this moment, a series of explosions suddenly came from the northeast.


    Aoba and the other two frowned at the same time. Needless to say, someone must have triggered the trap set by Kumogakure. It was estimated that the situation was grim.


    After all, not everyone was suitable for investigating.


    If not for the fact that they had a talent like Gekkou Hayate, they wouldn''t have been able to find out the location of the enemy so easily, as well as those extremely hidden traps.


    "Let''s do it as well. Hayate, you deal with the three hidden sentries first and then continue to ambush them in the dark. Do your best not to cause anymotion. If you are discovered, Aoba will go out and attract the attention of the enemy immediately. Remember, kill the enemies who want to warn us loudly first. Fight quickly!"


    Itachi directly made arrangements. Aoba and Gekkou Hayate nodded, indicating that they understood.


    They believed that even if there were an ident, Itachi would be able to react the most correctly at the first possible moment.


    As a result, Gekkou Hayate used the Transparent Escape technique to disappear from where he was, while Aoba and Itachi began to move forward from different directions quietly.


    They easily bypassed all the extremely hidden traps set up and then smoothly approached the limit of the enemy.


    What was left was to wait, wait for a signal to make a move.


    …


    A Kumogakure hidden sentry in the blind spot was quietly lying low. As long as an enemy appeared, he would be able to react immediately, give the enemy a head-on blow, or directly warn them.


    But today, his disguise had lost its effect because an invisible person had quietly stood behind him.


    Shua


    This time, Gekkou Hayate did not use a sword. Instead, he used Kunai to cut open the throat of the other person while covering his mouth.


    "The first -"


    After gentlyying down the corpse, Gekkou Hayate immediately turned invisible again and headed for the next target.


    Because the smell of blood here would soon arouse the vignce of other Kumogakure Ninjas, he had to kill the three hidden sentries before these people could react and then reduce the number of enemies as much as possible.


    What they wanted was not to kill these ten enemies but to try not to attract the attention of the enemies behind them while killing them.


    But when he quietly dealt with the three hidden sentries, he only had time to kill one more person before he was discovered.


    "Enemy!"


    Not good-


    Gekkou Hayate was secretly annoyed that he was too unlucky and was actually seen by an enemy who came to throw the match.


    Thus, he quickly rushed over and wanted to kill the enemy before he could open his mouth, but it seemed to be toote.


    But at this time, that Kumogakure Ninja felt as if he had seen a pair of eyes filled with an ominous feeling, and then there was no more.


    He was like a fool, standing there in a daze as Gekkou Hayate rushed over and directly beheaded him.


    This also meant that the sneak attack did not work, and he had to carry out n B.


    Aoba, who rushed out, directly grasped the hilt of his sword and made a cutting posture. Then, he instantly turned into a lightning bolt and shuttled through the field.


    "Thunder Breathing Technique, First Form, Thunderp and sh -- Eight Consecutive Strikes!"


    As if to coordinate with his actions, there was a timely explosion of thunder in the sky, and heavy rain came as nned.


    The thunder caused by Thunderp and sh''s Eight Sessions waspletely covered up by the thunder in the sky.


    When he finally withdrew his sword and stopped, thest five Kumogakure Ninjas who did not know what had happened all fell into a pool of blood.


    Because the terrain was moreplicated and these people stood rtively scattered, he thought that they would be covered by trees and not attract attention, so he could only use continuous shes to adjust his position.


    Fortunately, he seeded. After carefully picking up the explosive tag in the hand of thest person, Aoba could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. Although this kind of weather was not suitable for Gekkou Hayate to y, it could cover up many things, such as smell, sound, and so on.


    At the same time, Itachi also turned off Sharingan and walked out of the darkness. The overall situation had always been under his control.


    "Bury the corpses on the spot. This heavy rain is very timely. We have enough time to go deeper."


    Gekkou Hayate nodded and coughed twice. His face was a little sickly and rosy. "I might not be able to help much in the future."


    Aoba could not help but pat him on the shoulder. "It''s already enough. This kind of weather is not suitable for you to take risks again. Leave the rest to us."


    After burying the corpses, the three of them set off again.


    However, this time, without Gekkou Hayate to explore the way, their speed was not fast, and they were very cautious.


    Then, at this time, Itachi used the bird clone technique and projected his chakra on the bodies of dozens of "birds", then used these birds to explore the way.


    These birds sometimes flew up and sometimes fell down. It was very difficult to arouse the suspicion and vignce of the enemy.


    And Aoba had long been used to Itachi taking out some new ninjutsu from time to time. The genius figure at the top of the Ninja World pyramid was joking with him.


    Therefore, under the opening of Itachi''s Bird Clone Technique, they sessfully avoided several traps and secretly assassinated several enemies. Under the circumstances that no one noticed, they smoothly approached the base camp where Kumogakure was located.


    It had to be said that Itachi and Gekkou Hayate were both experts in scouting and assassination.


    Although Aoba was much worse in this aspect, because of the weather, it also concealed the shorings of his side, allowing him to y his role smoothly.


    Otherwise, if it were any other time, he would have been discovered by others when he shed Thunderp and sh eight times.


    But even so, the sound of thundering from this direction many times also attracted the attention of some of Kumogakure''s ninjas.


    At the same time, a certain person who was hanging far behind Aoba and the others also shed his eyes. On a rainy day, killing intent quietly appeared.
