Naruto Time Control

Chapter 87: Who is he?

Chiyo frowned and said, "... These forces were sent directly from Konoha village? But we didn't get any information."

"An elite group consisting of three hundred ninja sneaked into Rain Country and destroyed Pakura's group? That's impossible!"

Ebiz shook his head.

Although Sunagakure did not have many scouts in Konoha and it is extremely difficult to pass on information, the mobilization of such a group could not go unnoticed.

Even if the scouts stationed in Konoha did not know or could not relay the information, there were still many places along the way where their scouts were stationed.

As in their case, a group of one hundred ninja were forced to make a large detour to avoid being spotted by Konoha, not to mention a group of three hundred ninja.

"Maybe it was a collaboration between Konoha and Amegakure?"

The fourth Kazekage Rasa said calmly.

Traces of the battle were found on the border of the Rain Country, if Konohagakure and Amegakure had cooperated, it would have been quite possible.

"No."

Ebiz shook his head and said, "In order to destroy Pakura's squadron, Amegakure would have to use their full strength, such a move could not go unnoticed. Besides, Hanzo is very careful and secretive, he would never send all his forces at once."

Options to send massive forces from Konohagakure and cooperation from Amegakure were rejected due to too low a probability.

"An ambush?"

Chiyo said slowly.

Pakura's group fell into a well-prepared ambush and was destroyed by a small number of enemy forces, even the path to retreat was completely cut off, there is only that scenario.

Ebiz had come to this conclusion a long time ago, but he did not want to say it, because being destroyed by a large force and being ambushed were two completely different things.

For getting into an ambush, the greatest responsibility should fall on the commander of the Pakura group, but he was the one who appointed her to this position!

"That seems to be the only possibility."

Rasa said calmly and looked at Ebiz, saying, "With the losses of so many elites... you were the one responsible for this operation, Elder Ebiz..."

There was a heavy atmosphere in the tent.

Many of the Elite Jounin were in a terrible mood.

When Rasa was ready to put all the responsibility on Ebiz, depriving him of authority and even weakening Chiyo, suddenly a ninja entered the tent.

"Reporting to Kazekage-sama, new information has been found in the Rain Country."

"Hmm?"

Rasa frowned.

The ninja quickly knelt down and reported, "We were able to more clearly determine the route of Pakura's group and found several remnants of the battle..."

He clearly expressed the information gathered.

There were two main facts. First, the battle did not take place on the route the Pakura group was supposed to take, but was abruptly changed near a small village. After a thorough study of this village, it was discovered that a group of ninja lived here before, and on the day of the destruction of the Pakura group, a ninja of unknown origin appeared.

Secondly, based on an in-depth study of the battle, he discovered that the cause of almost all deaths was related to a lightning element Jutsu, in addition, a ninja before dying managed to transmit fragments of information with his summoned beast.

A man... Kusanagi sword... Lightning... speed...

Combining these fragments of information and the results of the investigation in that village, they came to a somewhat unbelievable conclusion.

In this village a ninja of unknown origin arrived and snatched Kusanagi's sword from the hands of the ninja hiding in the village, before encountering the elite force commanded by Pakura!

As for how exactly the events unfolded after their meeting, it's hard to say.

But one thing is certain, after encountering that ninja of unknown origin....

... Pakura's group was completely destroyed!

"It's impossible!"

Chiyo flatly rejected this conclusion.

She could accept that Pakura's group was destroyed by an ambush, but complete annihilation by a single ninja is absolutely impossible!

Even if that ninja has terrifying power, enough to crush Pakura's group alone, complete destruction, without a single survivor, is absolutely impossible!

"This is a conclusion made solely on the basis of the information received..."

Cold sweat broke out on the forehead of the reporting ninja.

He too knew that the conclusion was too improbable, but this explanation matched all the intelligence and clues received, any other explanation would be difficult to explain.

"It's impossible."

Rasa also shook her head.

Single-handedly destroying the elite forces commanded by Pakura? This is absolutely impossible unless the legendary Ninja God who put an end to the Age of Fighting Kingdoms, Senju Hashirama, was on the other side.

But this man is long dead now, and if he were alive, then no one in the world would dare to go against Konoha and start a war.

But the problem is...

... that even if Pakura's group wasn't destroyed by a single ninja, he definitely played an important role in what happened, maybe even defeating Pakura herself!

Pakura's strength is recognized by the entire village, she is an extremely powerful ninja with an enhanced genome, otherwise she would not have been appointed as the commander of the surprise attack group.

Then a logical question arises...

Who is this ninja?

Isn't the one who destroyed Pakura's entire group and probably defeated Pakura herself supposed to be a Konoha ninja?

Now they know about this ninja who only uses lightning element Jutsus and wields a Kusanagi sword, no more information!

"No matter what village this ninja belongs to, he is hostile towards us..."

Ebiz sighed and said gloomily.

The destruction of Pakura's group was bad news in itself, now that an unknown and extremely powerful ninja had appeared on the other side, their position in this war was becoming increasingly precarious.

But they couldn't retreat now, because if they did, Konoha will definitely continue to pressure Sunagakure, and after losing so many ninja in this war, they couldn't surrender to Konoha and sign an unequal peace agreement.

"The situation is getting serious, Elder Ebiz, you will have to take responsibility after the war? Do you have any battle plans at the moment?

Rasa narrowed her eyes and looked at Ebiz.

This is a very bad situation for the whole village, but it was good for him, after all, after such a blow to Ebiz's prestige, he won't have to worry so much about maintaining his position of Kazekage anymore.

But he should be on the lookout for this ninja who possesses the Kusanagi sword, there is very little information about him, and once he appears on the battlefield, he could cause many casualties.

He specializes in lightning element Jutsu....

Could he be a Kumogakure ninja?

The combination of Kumogakure and Konohagakure would make his situation extremely difficult, but the probability of such a development is too low.

"Although I don't know exactly who you are, but you've done me a great favor."

Rasa's eyes lit up with cold glints.

He needed to arrange another confrontation, which will lead to the death of several more ninja who oppose him, and then you can even surrender to Konoha, as long as Raza can cling to the post of Kazekage, for him any outcome of this war will be a victory.

But I really wanted to know who was the ninja of unknown origin responsible for destroying Pakura's group.
