Killer Bee was cautious and on edge as there is an opponent already just after he dealt with one. The last encounter had drilled a lesson into his mind Ttis time, he would not hesitate. If an enemy appeared again, he would either seal them completely or erase them from existence the moment their hostility was confirmed.
The only reason he had not immediately sealed the newly arrived figure was because the arrival was strange. The blood-covered man had clearly anticipated a high-speed transfer and had wrapped himself defensively, unlike the reanimated opponent earlier who had been caught mid-transition unknowingly.
However, it seems this one should already know about Renga's technique else they wouldn't have protected themselves. Bee also remembered Renga's standing orders clearly. Heavenly Transfer was never to be demonstrated before outsiders unless the situation demanded it. That restraint alone had likely saved such an important secret from slipping.
The hardened shell of blood suddenly burst apart with a wet crack, scattering red liquid across the frozen ground. En Oyashiro dropped to one knee, gasping sharply as air rushed back into lungs that felt him half-collapsed. The sudden deceleration had rattled his brain violently, a dull ringing pounding inside his skull, but he forced himself to steady his breathing. Years of combat experience trained him to recover quickly, even when his body screamed otherwise.
Killer Bee took one step forward, then another, his relaxed posture vanished instantly, replaced by sharp focus.
"Yo, what's this? A blood-soaked delivery service?" Bee muttered, but his tone hardened the moment his senses caught the desperation through this one.
En Oyashiro lifted his head with effort, blood lines drying along his cheeks. His voice came out rough, cracked by strain.
"The Little One… is in danger."
Bee's expression changed completely, all humor stripped away in an instant. "What happened, ya fool? Hurry up and spit out." Bee demanded, urgency sounding through his voice.
Oyashiro did not waste a single breath as he knew time was slipping away. He explained quickly, each sentence short and precise. He spoke of Kaien, Renga, Mabui, Samui and Darui's mission to recruit their Chinoike clan under Kumo. He described Konoha's sudden interference, the appearance of a reanimated shinobi, and the brutal battle that followed. His voice tightened when he spoke of Might Duy, of the impossible regeneration, of the fight pushing toward the Valley of Hell. Then he told Bee about the moment that changed everything.
"After the battle ended," Oyashiro said, breathing hard, "we heard Kaien's voice through the forest. Retreat. Loud enough to know it was a final battle cry. It should a minute ago. Renga… he sent me here and said only one thing mattered now... getting you to the Hot water border immediately as you are the only closer one who could likely contend against this unknown enemy."
Killer Bee listened without interrupting, already moving. He pulled out a scroll and began writing furiously, his brush flying across the paper with unnatural speed. He recorded every critical detail about Reanimated enemy at Land of Hot water. Chinoike clan allegiance secured. Yugito Nii's being bought back by En Oyashiro, the Leader of Chinoike clan. Little one being in danger. Immediate threat level marked extreme. When he finished, he snapped the scroll shut.
"I'm aborting training," Bee said flatly to Yugito. "This takes priority."
Oyashiro nodded, then forced himself upright. "I'll take you to them," he said, forming seals as blood began to rise again. The crimson liquid twisted into wing-like shapes behind his back as he prepared to lift off. He barely managed a few feet before the wings destabilized, collapsing under the chakra exhaustion. He crashed back down, coughing sharply.
Killer Bee's eyes widened slightly, as he something snapped. "Wee… that wings," He said, thinking fast. "I got an idea."
He spat a thick pool of ink onto the ground, chakra surging through it as the liquid rose unnaturally. The ink stretched and folded, forming crude but functional wings behind him. Bee launched himself upward immediately, then yelped as his balance failed spectacularly. He spun sideways, barely correcting before slamming feet-first into the ground again.
"Tch… flying ain't my style yet," Bee muttered.
He adjusted quickly. With another seal, the ink reshaped itself into a massive bird construct. He shoved the sealed scroll into its core and slapped its side.
"Fly this back home," Bee ordered. The Ink bird screeched and shot into the sky, zigzagging wildly before stabilizing and racing North-East.
Bee turned back sharply, issuing orders without hesitation. " Oyashiro-san, don't slow, don't fumble, Take Yugito back safe through thunder and rumble. Fastest route, no delay, no detour in sight, Guard her life with your blood, day into night."
He glanced at Yugito Nii, whose face was pale but determined. "Yugito, stay tight, don't drift, don't stray, Guide him straight, No delay, no wrong way, keep your focus straight, Lead him to my brother, that's the mission, that's the way."
Then Bee's gaze snapped to Pakura, who stiffened under his gaze. "And you," he said coldly, "don't try anything. Your chakra's sealed, and I'll know if you move funny."
Without waiting for responses, Bee activated Gyūki Chakra Mode again. Ink wings reformed at his back, sturdier this time. He crouched, then blasted into the air, clumsy but terrifyingly fast, vanishing toward the direction Oyashiro had indicated.
Oyashiro watched him go, chest rising and falling heavily. A second mission already... first assisting Renga to defeat a Monster like opponent which almost took his life, now escorting these 2 normally looking ladies back to the Cloud. He almost laughed at the absurdity. This was his first mission as a Kumo shinobi, and there should be no danger.
He activated the Ketsuryūgan again, blood flowing under precise control. The liquid hardened into restraints, forming a hanger-like structure that bound Pakura's hands securely without harming her. She glared but said nothing, clearly aware resistance was pointless.
"Yugito, right?" Oyashiro asked, turning to her. "Point me toward Kumo."
She nodded quickly and indicated the direction. "We'll run in V formation," Oyashiro said calmly. "You on my left. Her on my right."
With full visibility and no blind spots, there is no chance for betrayal or ambush from behind or attacking each other. As they lifted off, Oyashiro focused on steadying his chakra flow, drawing deeply from reserves that were finally beginning to recover.
Far away, back near the Valley of Hell, Renga collapsed where he stood. The moment Oyashiro vanished, the last thread keeping his blood in check snapped. He fell hard, vision fading rapidly. As he heard Kaien shouted again "REMOVE HIS HAND AND KUNAI FROM HIM!". With all the blood loss he could not stay conscious. His final thought was simple, with hope and fear.
"Bee-san… please hurry."
High above the land, Killer Bee tore through the sky at high hypersonic speeds, fighting his own lack of aerial control every second. The distance was brutal. Nearly eight hundred kilometers, and every second mattered. His wings wobbled, ink tearing and reforming as he forced more chakra through them. Sweat streamed down his face as he split his focus, maintaining the ink bird ahead of Yugito's group while keeping himself airborne.
The bird itself was no masterpiece. It zigzagged erratically, constantly correcting course, but it moved fast enough. Bee clenched his teeth.
"If only my ink style control was better," he thought grimly.
"You should have practiced harder, instead of skipping training", Gyuki retorted.
He said nothing, this is no time to argue. He leaned forward, forcing more power into his ink wings into his GCM, pushing past his comfort.
"Hold tight," Bee muttered to himself. "Master Bee-sama... is on the way."
