BXBX NOVEL Chapter 76 - – 74 A Pity!
Yugito Nii suddenly remembered the last time when she encountered Kuroto during the task of recovering the scroll of forbidden Jutsu stolen by Shinno. That is the first and only mission she failed to complete, and it was because of that ninja she encountered, so he left an impression upon her.
And now because Kuroto isn\'t wearing his goggles, she managed to recognize that he is of the Hyuga Clan.
As she swept her gaze past Kuroto, she also noticed another kid with the Sharingan and muttered, "One Byakugan, one Sharingan, no wonder it is so difficult to deal with your group. It turns out that both of the Dojutsu of Konoha were here!" then checking over to Kakashi and Guy, her eyes narrowed again on Kakashi, but she didn\'t say anything to them just hummed softly, "Just right, new account and old account, all will be calculated this time!"
Ignoring Yugito Nii\'s words Kuroto looked towards Shisui and Kakashi and said regretfully, "It\'s Nibi\'s Jinchuriki, a pity!"
Shisui also shook his head in disappointment, "Yes, so Kuroto-San are you going to do it?"
Kuroto nodded.
Listening to the conversation between Kuroto and Shisui, Yugito Nii suddenly had a bad feeling and immediately shouted: "Everyone Retreat NOW!"
Boom… Boom… Boom…
However, before her voice could reach the other ninjas, a series of explosions sounded in the cave. The impact was loud enough for the sound to reach miles away!
In the explosion, the entire cave collapsed, and the small mountain range where the cave was located, collapsed and along with it, a dozen cloud ninjas that were inside.
As the smoke and dust cleared, the huge figure of a two-tailed cat engulfed in blue-flames jumped out of the collapsed mountain range.
The ninjas that followed her here all managed to barely survive thanks to Nibi covering them within her.
Whoosh… Whoosh… Whoosh…
Attracted by the impact of the explosion, a group of figures arrived here one-after-another, and their leader wasn\'t someone else but the Yondaime Raikage-Sama himself.
Raikage-Sama glanced at the injured figure of Yugito Nii along with a dozen ninja and asked with annoyance, "Where is the enemy!?"
Yugito Nii, who already released her tail beast cloak coughed violently, and said, "Cough-cough… This was just a trap. I am afraid they have escaped long ago Raikage-Sama!"
Listening to Yugito Nii\'s words, Raikage-Sama fell into deep thought, he seems to be considering something as he cast his gaze into the distance; after a little of thinking he finally said with some emotions; "It seems that Konoha Village isn\'t as weak as I expected. Maybe it\'s time to end this conflict."
Yugito Nii was surprised by Raikage-Sama\'s words and quickly said, "Raikage-Sama, please give me some more time, I swear I will definitely kill them!"
However, A shook his head, "I am afraid the situation isn\'t as simple, I have received the news from the frontline, Hokage himself led troops and conducted a series of surprise attacks on our camp. With you here, B couldn\'t resist and had already begun to retreat. Not only that but the intentions of Rock Village are also unclear. With Tsuchkage\'s character, he would definitely bite if the situation allowed, we are falling into a disadvantage."
Forces of the rock Village have already been gathered at the border of the Land of Grass. Tsuchikage-Sama is sitting quietly while watching Konoha and Cloud fight each other, if Cloud reveals even a small flaw, Onoki wouldn\'t hesitate to strike.
Yugito Nii was taken aback by the sudden turn of events and murmured, "Does that mean all the efforts were in vain?"
Raikage patted Yugito Nii\'s shoulder: "Don\'t be discouraged, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future, as long we increase our strength, Konoha will have to fall!"
Yugito Nii still grumbled and cursed Team-11 while gritting her teeth in frustration, "Damn it, Konoha Team-11 bastards!"
…
Eastern Coastline of the Land of Hot Water
The four people of Team-11 were galloping along the coast in the direction of Konoha.
Suddenly, Kakashi, Kuroto, and Shisui stopped and looked at each other with signs of regret in their eyes.
Shisui sighed in disappointment, "Sigh… I didn\'t expect her to arrive in the cave, such a shame."
However, Kakashi wondered, "Her reaction was too extreme, right? They just came to deal with the four Anbu members, why to bring such heavy forces? And how come Nibi\'s Jinchuriki wasn\'t at the assault force? Raikage-Sama being in the Land of Hot Water is already too strange, not to mention the Nibi\'s Jinchuriki too? Doesn\'t it appear to be too weird?"
Obviously, Kakashi didn\'t know of the havoc Kuroto caused in the Tenseigan Chakra Mode. Not only he killed every being alive in the valley but even flattened it entirely, so, him being puzzled by the extreme reaction of the Cloud Village is natural.
Listening to Captain Kakashi\'s words Shisui glanced at Kuroto-San from the side and thought silently, \'When facing someone like Kuroto-San, Cloud Village has no chance of winning even with the Nibi Jinchuriki, so having a Raikage is necessary for them to survive!\'
Kuroto only coughed, feeling a little embarrassed, but this embarrassment wasn\'t noticed by Kakashi and Guy as they were still wondering about Cloud Village\'s strange reaction.
In fact, Kuroto was more regretful that the Detonation Charm they used in setting up the trap went to waste, so it made him quite sad.
After deciding to withdraw from the Land of Hot Water, Team-11 set up a large-scale trap, to give Cloud Village goodbye greetings.
After setting up the detonation charms around the cave, Kuroto, and Shisui, each left their shadow clone while Kakashi left two Shadow Clones, one his and another Guy\'s to complete the trap.
Team-11 expected some squad led by Jonin or Chunin to find that cave, so no matter how they escaped, there would have been some damage on the enemy side.
However, contrary to their expectations, it was Nibi\'s Jinchuriki that showed up.
Once the Jinchuriki enters the tailed beast state, it is difficult to cause fatal damage.
What\'s more, Yugito Nii is a perfect Jinchuriki, so her cooperation with Nibi will make most of the traps against her useless, not to mention the hastily prepared trap by the Team-11.
Even if the trap failed to cause any fatal damage to the Cloud\'s side, the members of Team-11 were not too disappointed. Or even if there were some regrets, they can\'t afford to be depressed over it.
As Cloud Village deployed more and more forces in the Land of the Hot Water, this country became more and more dangerous therefore, they didn\'t have any other option but to retreat.
So, after digesting the information from the shadow Clone, they continued to travel towards the Land of Fire.
Perhaps because of the conflict between the two great shinobi villages, the wandering ninjas in the Land of Hot Water have long since escaped. So, the Team-11 didn\'t have to get involved in useless battles, and after continuously moving along the coastline for a few days, except for the short breaks they took, they finally returned to the territory of the Land of Fire.
In their own territory, Team-11 quickly met with a Konoha ninja team who was responsible for patrol and investigation. Through these Konoha ninjas, they learned about some general situations of the frontline.
As per Kuroto\'s expectations, Cloud\'s raid was just some temptation.
This entire conflict with the Cloud Village can even be considered the follow-up effects of the Kyuubi\'s Rebellion, a chain reaction of Orochimaru\'s defection, and the death of Yondaime Hokage-Sama and his wife Uzumaki Kushina.
Cloud Village would obviously not want to escalate it into full-scale war as long as there is no benefit, and Konoha\'s current situation doesn\'t allow it to push the stalemate any further.
Since the situation turned unfavorable for the Cloud\'s side, they showed their willingness to negotiate and Hokage-Sama readily accepted this offer.
Although Hokage-Sama doesn\'t know the exact situation that was caused by the Team-11 and how much troubled Cloud Village was because of them, he would have chosen to negotiate nonetheless, because Konoha simply couldn\'t afford a war given their current lack of power and personnel.
Now Konoha and Cloud have entered a cease-fire agreement and Cloud Village has withdrawn all their troops from the border of the Land of Fire a few days ago…
