"Very well then." A ruthless smile appeared under Kakashi's mask, "Since we know the specific location, then it'll be easy to handle, and we can finish the matter earlier, and knock off earlier, and let's go!"
Kakashi turned around and crossed that small stream first, and entered the Land of Woods while saying up to this point.
"Sigh!" Kaoru sighed, and then followed as well.
A massacre was about to be staged.
Kaoru and Kakashi were advancing unhurriedly along the map in that Hannya Troupe ninja's hand, and finally arrived at the outskirts of the Hidden Wood Village.
The Hidden Wood Village's area wasn't large, and was almost only one-third the size of the Leaf Village, and there were seven or eight watchtowers that had been built within the village besides the two Hannya Troupe ninjas who were guarding the village entrance, and there was a ninja guarding each watchtower, and it looked like the defense was still very tight.
"There are many Hannya Troupe ninjas in this place, and it seems that this is their headquarters." Kaoru said while sweeping his gaze over the situation of the village before him.
"Very well then." Kakashi nodded his head, and asked Kaoru, "If that's the case, then we'll outflank from the left and right separately, and we should first figure out the personnel arrangement and strength of this village, and then come to this location to gather after twenty minutes."
"No problem!" Kaoru answered.
"Action!" Kakashi gave an order, and his figure transformed into a streak of white light instantly, and advanced towards the left along the perimeter of the village.
However, it wasn't this troublesome for Kaoru, and the Hawk Spirit was completely more than enough for the matter of scouting out the enemy's situation.
"Hawk Strike from the Sky!"
Kaoru shot the Hawk Spirit towards the sky directly while standing in place, and the Hawk Spirit cried out lightly, and began to circle slowly in the sky above the Hidden Wood Village.
Not to mention the right side of the village, and the entire situation of the Hidden Wood Village was completely exposed in Kaoru's vision now, and he could even see the scene of Kakashi sneaking into the Hidden Wood Village clearly.
Kaoru had digested the Hannya Troupe ninjas' military deployment in his mind in less than a short while, and was waiting for Kakashi to return next.
Kakashi's figure appeared in Kaoru's vision after some time had passed again.
"You've finished scouting?"
A look of surprise surfaced on Kakashi's face after seeing that Kaoru was waiting for him in place with a face that was full of smiles.
"That's right, and I was just waiting for you." Kaoru nodded his head and said.
"Really....." Kakashi revealed a look of suspicion, and he had carried out scouting missions many times in the Anbu, and it could be said that he could do the scouting missions now skillfully, and quickly and accurately, and this little brat had actually returned earlier than him, and was also saying that he had completed his scouting mission, and this naturally made Kakashi unable to believe it.
"Then you should first talk about the situation on the right side of this Hidden Wood Village." Kakashi frowned his eyebrows, and asked.
"Hmm." Kaoru nodded his head with a smile, "The right side of the Hidden Wood Village is in squads of three people, and they're all monitoring the situation of this village back to back, and there are a total of five open sentries, and seven hidden sentries, and their strengths are also about the same, and the others are all Genin besides a few who are Chunin, and I didn't see ninjas at the Jōnin level, and they should be in the rooms."
Kakashi was also stunned after seeing that Kaoru had said the situation that he had scouted out in one breath, and the left side of the Hidden Wood Village was indeed also in squads of three people, and there were also open and hidden sentries arranged in the same way even though he hadn't scouted the situation on the right side of the Hidden Wood Village.
"It seems that you little brat's speed of scouting is quite fast....." Kakashi said aloud, and there was still some unwillingness in his heart.
However, Kaoru spoke again before he could finish saying this sentence: "This is only the situation on the right side of the Hidden Wood Village, and there are six open sentries, and eight hidden sentries on the left side, and there's also one Jōnin among them, and I wonder if what I'm saying is correct, Senior Kakashi?"
"H-How would you know?"
Kakashi was truly unwilling to accept it this time, and Kaoru's speed of scouting was much faster than him, and he hadn't scouted half of the village, but the entire village!
"How did you scout, and I didn't see any traces of you on the left side of the Hidden Wood Village....."
Kakashi asked again, and the time that he had used to scout half of the village was more than the time that Kaoru had used to scout the entire village, and this was simply a disgrace to his reputation in the Anbu.
"Senior Kakashi, and this is my secret technique, and it's inconvenient to tell other people, and we should still discuss how to attack this Hidden Wood Village now." Kaoru said with a slight smile.
"Alright then." Kakashi nodded his head immediately after seeing that Kaoru was unwilling to say it, and didn't force him, "Now that we already know the situation of the Hidden Wood Village, you should tell me first, and what do you plan to do?"
Kakashi had already developed a strong interest in Kaoru, and wanted to understand Kaoru's battle plan further, and his ability had already far surpassed Kakashi's imagination, and it could be said that his achievements in the future would definitely not be lower than his teacher, the Fourth Hokage, if his strategies were also formidable!
"What I plan....." Kaoru's eyeballs turned around, "We can just attack inside with a strong attack directly!"
"Hmm?" Kakashi frowned his eyebrows, and this wasn't the answer that he wanted to hear, and attacking inside with a strong attack directly could be said to be the worst plan in his opinion.
"I didn't hear wrong, right? To attack inside with a strong attack directly? You've at least obtained the information of the Hidden Wood Village, and can't you think of a smarter method?" Kakashi asked in return, "For example, attacking from the rear of the village, and killing the Hannya Troupe ninjas on the outermost perimeter with assassinations first....."
"Is there a need?" Kaoru chuckled lightly without waiting for Kakashi to finish speaking, "Although the other party has many ninjas, their strength is only at the Chunin level, and we can just attack inside directly."
"You shouldn't forget that there are also three Jōnin in that Hidden Wood Village." Kakashi said.
"Three Jōnin, and two are inside the rooms, and we can kill the first one with the momentum of thunder, and then the two of us can just deal with one each for the remaining two." Kaoru said with a smile.
"Are you this conceited?" Kakashi asked, "You should know that there aren't only three Jōnin and there are also a few Chunin and many Genin in the Hidden Wood Village."
"This isn't conceit, and it's confidence." Kaoru said with a smile, "Why should we still use any plans before the absolute difference in strength?"
"Absolute difference in strength....." Kakashi was silent, and he could see absolute confidence from within Kaoru's eyes, and he was confident that he could sweep away the entire Hidden Wood Village, but this kind of strength.....Kakashi was somewhat hesitant about himself.
"What's wrong, Senior Kakashi, and you don't believe in your strength, or don't believe in me." Kaoru continued to say with a smile.
"But, the degree of danger is truly too great in this way." Kakashi frowned his eyebrows.
"Life needs some stimulation in order to allow it to appear more valuable." Kaoru said with a smile: "And I have a Sharingan dōjutsu that I want to use these Hannya Troupe to experiment with."
"Experiment....." Kakashi clenched his fists after thinking for one or two seconds: "Alright then, and we'll do it as you say, and I'll risk my life to be a gentleman if you're this confident that you can break through with a strong attack, and you should prove all of this with your own practical actions!"
"No problem!" Kaoru nodded his head with a smile, and Kaoru was somewhat moved in his heart after looking at the look of trust that Kakashi had cast towards him.
And the gate to that Hidden Wood Village was slowly opening at this time, and two Hannya Troupe, who were wearing demon masks, walked out from within, and it seemed that they were going to change shifts with the people who were guarding the gate now.
"The opportunity has come." Kaoru revealed a trace of a smile while staring at the Hannya Troupe ninjas who were at the entrance to the Hidden Wood Village with both of his eyes.
"Are you preparing to go now?" Kakashi asked.
"Don't panic first, and wait for me to do something." Kaoru said with a smile, and then picked up a small pebble from the ground, and threw it to a place that was three meters away from where Kaoru and Kakashi were hiding.
