Chapter 207: Time and People

The sky was covered by dark clouds at some point in time, and heavy rain could fall at any time.

"How is the situation?"

"Seven bright sentries, three hidden sentries, and many stones are covered with explosive talismans. There are also a few places with wire hanging, either traps or alarm bells." This chapter made its debut appearance via N0v3lB1n.

Gekkou Hayate said quickly and concisely.

"How afraid are we to be ambushed?" After hearing this, Aoba couldn't help but complain with a headache.

This was only one of the outer areas. The deeper they went, the greater the resistance they would encounter. It was estimated that the other directions were also similar.

"What should we do? Do we do it?" Gekkou Hayate asked.

This kind of peripheral defense was at most GeninChhunin, so it was unlikely that Jonin would appear.

In addition, he had already found most of the traps when he was invisible, so even if it was three to ten, there was a high chance of success.

The most important thing was that if it rained later, his stealth effect would be greatly reduced.

However, at this moment, a series of explosions suddenly came from the northeast.

Aoba and the other two frowned at the same time. Needless to say, someone must have triggered the trap set by Kumogakure. It was estimated that the situation was grim.

After all, not everyone was suitable for investigating.

If not for the fact that they had a talent like Gekkou Hayate, they wouldn't have been able to find out the location of the enemy so easily, as well as those extremely hidden traps.

"Let's do it as well. Hayate, you deal with the three hidden sentries first and then continue to ambush them in the dark. Do your best not to cause any commotion. If you are discovered, Aoba will go out and attract the attention of the enemy immediately. Remember, kill the enemies who want to warn us loudly first. Fight quickly!"

Itachi directly made arrangements. Aoba and Gekkou Hayate nodded, indicating that they understood.

They believed that even if there were an accident, Itachi would be able to react the most correctly at the first possible moment.

As a result, Gekkou Hayate used the Transparent Escape technique to disappear from where he was, while Aoba and Itachi began to move forward from different directions quietly.

They easily bypassed all the extremely hidden traps set up and then smoothly approached the limit of the enemy.

As if to coordinate with his actions, there was a timely explosion of thunder in the sky, and heavy rain came as planned.

The thunder caused by Thunderclap and Flash's Eight Successions was completely covered up by the thunder in the sky.

When he finally withdrew his sword and stopped, the last five Kumogakure Ninjas who did not know what had happened all fell into a pool of blood.

Because the terrain was more complicated and these people stood relatively scattered, he thought that they would be covered by trees and not attract attention, so he could only use continuous flashes to adjust his position.

Fortunately, he succeeded. After carefully picking up the explosive tag in the hand of the last person, Aoba could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. Although this kind of weather was not suitable for Gekkou Hayate to play, it could cover up many things, such as smell, sound, and so on.

At the same time, Itachi also turned off Sharingan and walked out of the darkness. The overall situation had always been under his control.

"Bury the corpses on the spot. This heavy rain is very timely. We have enough time to go deeper."

Gekkou Hayate nodded and coughed twice. His face was a little sickly and rosy. "I might not be able to help much in the future."

Aoba could not help but pat him on the shoulder. "It's already enough. This kind of weather is not suitable for you to take risks again. Leave the rest to us."

After burying the corpses, the three of them set off again.

However, this time, without Gekkou Hayate to explore the way, their speed was not fast, and they were very cautious.

Then, at this time, Itachi used the bird clone technique and projected his chakra on the bodies of dozens of "birds", then used these birds to explore the way.

These birds sometimes flew up and sometimes fell down. It was very difficult to arouse the suspicion and vigilance of the enemy.

And Aoba had long been used to Itachi taking out some new ninjutsu from time to time. The genius figure at the top of the Ninja World pyramid was joking with him.

Therefore, under the opening of Itachi's Bird Clone Technique, they successfully avoided several traps and secretly assassinated several enemies. Under the circumstances that no one noticed, they smoothly approached the base camp where Kumogakure was located.

It had to be said that Itachi and Gekkou Hayate were both experts in scouting and assassination.

Although Aoba was much worse in this aspect, because of the weather, it also concealed the shortcomings of his side, allowing him to play his role smoothly.

Otherwise, if it were any other time, he would have been discovered by others when he slashed Thunderclap and Flash eight times.

But even so, the sound of thunder coming from this direction many times also attracted the attention of some of Kumogakure's ninjas.

At the same time, a certain person who was hanging far behind Aoba and the others also flashed his eyes. On a rainy day, killing intent quietly appeared.
