Cee's sharpness made Qingchuan think highly of him.
Even though they were still some distance away, and even the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, B, hadn't noticed anything yet.
But this blond kid was able to detect the enemy's presence in the first instance.
Not bad...
Promising.
It's just a pity, he discovered it a little too late.
The enemy deliberately circled around, rapidly shrinking into an encirclement, obviously prepared.
This also made Qingchuan a little puzzled...
They definitely weren't Root members.
Compared to Root, the newcomers lacked a bit of coldness but had more bloodlust.
But if they weren't Root...
Then who else could know about this highly confidential transaction location between Kumogakure and Konohagakure?
And they were heading straight for the destination!
Qingchuan pondered, and soon, he had a rough idea...
Besides Kirigakure, manipulated by Tobi... who else could it be?
Once the transaction was successfully completed, Konoha would have essentially gotten several boxes of money for free.
It would be strange if Tobi wanted to see Konoha benefit in the slightest...
The atmosphere suddenly became tense due to Cee's shout.
Darui directly used a Body Flicker Technique to arrive in front of B, staring coldly at the Konoha ninja in front of him.
"Although from the beginning, I didn't have much hope for Konoha's credibility..."
"But I really didn't expect you to make a move at this time."
Darui sneered, one hand already gripping the hilt of his sword.
"Calm down."
Kakashi also held the hilt of his sword behind his back, his expression wary, but with some confusion.
"We are only responsible for conducting the transaction and have not received any other mission requests."
"There may be some misunderstanding."
Kakashi tried to explain.
Within the village, there were indeed voices opposing this transaction.
The pursuit by Root just now, and Shisui's arrival, had already explained everything.
Although there was also a chance that they were Kumogakure ambushers, he hadn't received any notice from the front-line troops before departing.
The newcomers were indeed likely to be another Root team.
"Misunderstanding?"
Darui sneered again.
"You are responsible for taking the money away, and others are responsible for leaving B-sama here to continue restraining Raikage-sama."
"Konoha's credibility really isn't worth being trusted!"
Kakashi frowned immediately.
"You three, quickly send the goods back to Konohagakure."
"I'll stay here first to observe the situation."
Without turning his head, Kakashi had already made a decision.
Regardless of whether or not they were Konoha ambushers.
All he needed to consider was how to get the team back to Konohagakure safely.
And the biggest danger in front of him wasn't from the unknown ambushers, but from the Kumogakure ninja in front of him.
However...
Although this decision was made quickly, it was obviously still one step too late.
Qingchuan had already begun to mobilize all the Spiritual Power in his body.
And the mysterious enemy who knew the information about this transaction, finally revealed their true faces.
Kirigakure.
A uniform of Kirigakure ninja.
The number of people was more than the time when Qingchuan brushed experience with Qing himself leading the team.
Judging from their auras, their strength was also much stronger.
A group of Kirigakure ninja suddenly appeared, their speed and numbers directly surrounding the two teams.
And most importantly, was the person leading the team.
With long brown hair, a graceful figure, and a beautiful face, with a charming smile on her face.
Qingchuan recognized this hottie at a glance...
Mei Terumī.
The future Fifth Mizukage, now the leader of this Kirigakure force surrounding the Konoha and Kumogakure teams.
Standing next to Mei Terumī was a handsome young man with a delicate face.
He had a seventy percent resemblance to the future Suigetsu Hōzuki, but was obviously not the same person.
Qingchuan also recognized the large sword in the young man's hand...
Double Sword: Hiramekarei. Clearly, the young man's identity was one of the Second Generation Seven Ninja Swordsmen, Mangetsu Hōzuki.
"Really, you didn't call us Kirigakure for a secret transaction."
"Isn't that too disappointing?"
Mei Terumī slowly walked over, her high heels clicking, her gaze examining every face in the two teams for a moment.
Finally, a look of disdain appeared on her beautiful face...
The sense of oppression on the field escalated again.
Darui's face was uncertain, and Cee's face was even more solemn.
Even B, no longer downcast as before, looked heavy.
"Hey, whatever your name is."
The still cool Kakashi spoke.
"It seems that the alliance agreement between Konoha and Kumogakure needs to take effect sooner..."
Kakashi's inquiring gaze went straight to Darui... 0
And Darui didn't hesitate for long, and quickly responded.
"Yes, B-sama has been a guest in Konoha for so long. Kumogakure and Konoha are already an impregnable fortress."
These lying words probably wouldn't be believed in any situation.
But now, under these circumstances, they obviously still had some effect...
Qingchuan's eyebrows under his mask suddenly twitched.
This young man... seems to be not bad either.
Promising!
"An impregnable fortress... interesting."
Mei Terumī, with absolute advantage, chuckled.
"I'll only ask once, anyone willing to surrender, Kirigakure can treat you well."
"Especially that little girl over there... Come on, take off your mask, let me see..."
"It's really hard for you to be mixed up with such a bunch of stinky men..."
The current Mei Terumī obviously doesn't know how painful it is to miss the marriage season.
Her eyes were full of disdain for men...
Everyone on the field, including the eyes of the Kirigakure ninja, immediately fell on that petite figure.
Qingchuan's face instantly darkened...
Itachi quickly and stealthily blocked in front of Qingchuan, his eyes warily looking at Mei Terumī.
Just as he was about to say something, he heard a somewhat suppressed, but still incredibly ethereal voice...1.4..
"Captain..."
As Qingchuan spoke, he slowly removed his mask...
The soft lines on his face seemed a little stiff at the moment, but still didn't affect his beauty.
Especially that well-honed smile, which became a bright spot on this tense battlefield...
Everyone felt the same thing at the same time.
Even the members of Kakashi's team, who were considered very familiar, felt the same on this increasingly oppressive battlefield.
This little girl simply didn't belong on this battlefield...
You've got to be kidding me!
But soon, everyone's faces changed again and again...
They saw the little girl silently raise the large sword in her hand, pointing it remotely at Mei Terumī, the commander of the Kirigakure force surrounding them.
"Can I just kill this big sister?!"
