Two hours later, three figures were running through the woods. They were Uzuki Yugao, Gekkou Hayate, and Chiyo.
"They should be catching up soon," Gekkou Hayate said. "I can feel the remaining chakra around here, which means the invaders are not far away from us."
"Hayate, are you sure you can deal with the invaders?" asked Uzuki Yugao.
Gekkou Hayate shook his head. "I can't tell before I meet them, but since they were able to invade Sand Village and successfully capture the Kazekage, it means they are quite strong. Chiyo-sama, there are two invaders, right?"
Chiyo nodded.
Gekkou Hayate thought, "Two people were able to enter Sand Village and capture the Kazekage, which means their strength is almost at the level of Lady Tsunade. I wonder if the three of us can deal with them. Tsk, it's a bit tricky."
"You also know it's tricky?" Chiyo's face was full of displeasure. "As an ally of Sunagakure, Sunagakure suffered such a serious attack, and your Hokage only sent two of you to help. What does Konoha mean by this?"
Uzuki Yugao and Gekkou Hayate were a little embarrassed.
Chiyo snorted. "If this rescue fails, Konoha will bear most of the responsibility, and I will ask to terminate the alliance relationship with your Konoha!"
Gekkou Hayate and the others could only laugh awkwardly.
Suddenly, Chiyo stopped. "Wait! There is someone in front!"
The three of them stopped immediately and looked forward.
In front of the woods, a white-haired man with a sword was standing there waiting for them.
"Who is this guy?" Gekkou Hayate wondered. "Is he a wandering ninja living nearby?"
But Chiyo's face looked very ugly.
Uzuki Yugao asked curiously, "Chiyo-sama, what's wrong with you?"
"It's him!" Chiyo gritted her teeth and said, "One of the invaders from Sand Village! It's him! I saw them riding a giant white bird out of the village with my own eyes!"
Gekkou Hayate and Uzuki Yugao's faces changed, and they immediately got into fighting postures.
"Only one person?" Gekkou Hayate looked around. "Didn't they say there were two intruders? Where's the other one?"
"I only sensed the chakra of one person; the other one might not have come." Chiyo's face was gloomy. "This is a good thing. It is easier to deal with one person. After catching him, we can ask about his other companions and the whereabouts of Gaara."
"No problem." Gekkou Hayate drew out his samurai sword.
Chiyo also took out a humanoid puppet.
But Uzuki Yugao was dumbfounded and did not move.
"Yugao, what's wrong?" Gekkou Hayate asked.
"I seem to… know him." Uzuki Yugao said. "A year ago, I saw this face when I went to the Anbu to hand over a mission. He seemed to be a member of Konoha Anbu."
"Anbu?" Gekkou Hayate suddenly remembered something. "Before, Anko was also killed by a rogue Anbu. There are not many rogue Anbu in Konoha. Could he be the murderer who killed Anko?"
"It must be him!" Uzuki Yugao nodded.
Anger suddenly appeared in Gekkou Hayate's eyes.
Uzuki Yugao was also very angry.
"Revenge for Anko!" Gekkou Hayate rushed directly towards the man and slashed with his sword.
The man calmly drew his sword to block.
Ding!
The blades collided, and sparks flew out.
"Konoha Style Kenjutsu: Dance of the Crescent Moon!" Gekkou Hayate slashed at him several times in a row.
The man dodged in an instant, and the blade did not touch him at all.
"Is he also a taijutsu ninja? He is indeed a ninja from the Anbu," Gekkou Hayate slashed a few more times.
Whoosh!
The man suddenly disappeared from the spot.
"Huh?" Gekkou Hayate was stunned. "Where did he go?"
Swish!
As soon as he finished speaking, the man appeared behind him and slashed with a knife.
Puff!
Gekkou Hayate's entire left arm was chopped off.
"Ah!" Gekkou Hayate fell to the ground, blood gushing out of his broken arm.
"Hayate!" Uzuki Yugao rushed over from a distance. "Konoha Style Kenjutsu: Dance of the Four Suns!"
Whoosh!
She slashed with her sword, and the man disappeared again and appeared behind Uzuki Yugao.
"So fast!" Uzuki Yugao's heart sank suddenly.
The man slapped Uzuki Yugao's neck with a palm.
Boom!
Uzuki Yugao's eyes rolled back, and she fainted.
"Yugao!" Gekkou Hayate climbed up with great pain. "Don't try to hurt Yugao! Your opponent is me!"
The man glanced at him and ignored him, looking at Chiyo in the distance.
Chiyo narrowed her eyes slightly. "Do you regard me as the biggest threat? It seems that you have good judgment. Compared with the two of them, I have more combat experience."
The man walked towards Chiyo with his Zanpakutō.
"I will not surrender without a fight." Chiyo waved her hand, and a humanoid puppet appeared beside her.
The man seemed not to notice and continued to walk towards Chiyo.
"Hey! How dare you ignore me!" Gekkou Hayate rushed to the man from behind. "Konoha Style Kenjutsu: Mikazuki—"
Puff!
Just as he was halfway through his words, the man thrust out a knife without even turning his head.
This knife pierced straight through Gekkou Hayate's heart.
