It was impossible for no one to die in a war. Cold Wind had been mentally prepared for this. However, when he heard that the third team had lost a few elites, he still felt a pang of heartache!
They were all his young master's subordinates!
Cold Wind rushed to the third team anxiously. Soon, he saw Moonlight Lan Feng, Moonlight Yan, and a dozen other members of the Moonlight Clan.
"Cold Wind, why are you here?" Moonlight Lan Feng's eyes were sharp. When he saw Cold Wind, he hurried over.
Cold Wind took out Orochi Maru's order and said, "This is an order from Orochi Maru. From now on, I will be joining the third team."
Moonlight Lan Feng nodded after reading the order and said bitterly, "I didn't expect you to join the third team in such a way. Cold Wind, you should rest first. "
Cold Wind said, "I just woke up."
Moonlight Lan Feng was speechless.
"Uncle, how many people did we lose?"
Moonlight Lan Feng looked hesitant. He turned to the dozen people behind him and said, "What you see now is all of them."
Cold Wind's heart skipped a beat. If he remembered correctly, there were more than 70 people who had followed his cheapskate father, Moonlight Hoshino, to the front line.
Now, there was only … Cold Wind counted. Including Moonlight Lan Feng, Moonlight Yan, and himself, there were only 13 people left. Three of them were lying on the wooden tatami mats, recovering from their injuries!
In this war, the backbone of the entire Moonshine Clan was broken!!
Cold Wind felt terrible.
"Cold Wind."
Moonlight Yan also saw Cold Wind.
Cold Wind forced a smile. "Sister Yan, we are comrades from now on."
Then, Moonlight Mist announced the addition of Cold Wind to the rest of the Moonlight Clan, but no one was excited. After all, Cold Wind was too young. Although he has been promoted to Chunin for a year, his strength is certainly not as good as those who have been fighting on the battlefield for more than two years.
Currently, the Third Assassination Squad did not have any missions, so everyone was quite idle. Some were recuperating, some were sunbathing, and some were resting. However, none of them were cultivating. After all, cultivating required a lot of physical strength and energy, and the Assassination Squad could receive a difficult mission at any time. If their physical strength and energy were to be exhausted, they would die if they went on a mission!
Cold Wind looked at the silent tribesmen and felt that the atmosphere was a little strange. He turned to look at Moonlight Smoke. Moonlight Smoke was actually cleaning his sword.
Autumn Water's blade was thin and clear, like the pure moonlight. Moonlight Mist wiped the blade over and over again, and her eyes seemed to become brighter and brighter.
Cold Wind coughed softly and interrupted her. "Sister Yan, why does everyone look so weird?"
Moonlight Smoke seemed to still be immersed in the Autumn Water Sword. Hearing this, he replied without turning his head, "Maybe it has something to do with the failure of the assassination mission."
"What mission?" Cold Wind asked.
"It was a joint mission with the Second Assassination Squad to assassinate the hero of the Hidden Sand Village, Pakura." Moonlight Smoke stopped cleaning his sword and said gloomily, "But the mission failed, and members of both teams were sacrificed."
Cold Wind's pupils constricted. Pakura?
Cold Wind's uncle, Blast's father, had been killed by Pakura. His father, the leader of the Moonlight Clan, Moonlight Hoshino, had also been seriously injured by Pakura and could no longer be a ninja.
Pakura had relied on her powerful bloodline limit to kill the Wood Leaf Ninjas and become the hero of the Hidden Sand Village. However, to the Wood Leaf Ninjas, especially the Moonlight Clan, this was a disgrace.
No wonder the tribesmen were unhappy.
At this moment, an expressionless ninja suddenly flashed over with a scroll in his hand. "Moonlight Mist Wind, this is the latest mission. Set off immediately!"
"Got it."
Moonlight Mist Wind took the scroll and read it. It said that two suspected Sand Ninjas had attacked the logistics team from the rear. They were ordered to kill the two Sand Ninjas. After reading it, Moonlight Mist Wind immediately shouted. "Everyone gather!"
Moonlight Smoke returned his sword to its scabbard and instantly flashed in front of Moonlight Mist Wind. Except for the three injured tribesmen, the rest of the tribesmen also flashed in front of him. Cold Wind also immediately ran over.
Moonlight Mist Wind's eyes paused. Should he let Cold Wind go with him?
But then he thought that this mission was relatively simple, so it was better to treat it as training for him.
Moonlight Mist Wind told everyone about the mission and then took them out of the Wood Leaf camp. According to the information, they moved toward the rear of the camp. The next evening, the group arrived near a mountain.
"Here it is!"
Moonlight Mist Wind and the rest of the Moonlight Clan pulled out their swords and looked around vigilantly.
Cold Wind quietly made hand seals to cast perception Ninjutsu, and in an instant, the perception tentacles spread out, and in a blink of an eye, it reached a radius of two kilometers.
"Found it!"
Cold Wind quickly found a strange fetus in the depths of the mountain, but … "No, it seems that there is only one person!"
"Cold Wind, you've mastered perception Ninjutsu?" Moonlight Mist Wind asked in surprise.
Cold Wind nodded modestly: "I know a little."
"Cold Wind, where is the Sand Ninja?" A Moonlight Clan member next to him asked.
"Over there." Cold Wind pointed to the depths of the mountain and said, "But it seems that there is only one Sand Ninja in my perception range. Is the information wrong?"
"Let's go and see."
Moonlight Mist Wind's figure flashed and went into the depths of the mountain.
Outside the mountain pass was a jungle, but after going deeper, it was a huge thorny forest. Thorny vines as thick as a person's wrist were everywhere like tentacles. On the vines, sharp wooden thorns as thick as fingers reflected a strange luster under the sunlight, densely packed in front of them!
"Do you want to take a detour?" Moonlight Mist Wind gestured with his hand. If he used a sword to cut these vines, it would take a lot of time.
"No need."
Cold Wind stepped forward and used Wind Release – Breakthrough to blow all the thorns on the ground into the sky.
Everyone took the opportunity to quickly pass through the thorny forest.
But what he saw next made Han Feng's eyes widen abruptly.
At the end of the thorny forest was a Ninja wearing a Wood Leaf forehead protector, and an 'old acquaintance' of Cold Wind!
Anbu wild squad leader Wild Fox!
But at this time, Wild Fox's eyes were dull, his face expressionless, and his shoulders were like loose willow branches, weakly hanging.
Cold Wind's heart sank, and instantly realized that Wild Fox was most likely transformed into … a puppet!
Sasori of the Red Sand …
Cold Wind clenched his hands into fists, and his bones cracked.
"Wood Leaf Ninja? You … who are you? "Moonlight Mist Wind looked at Wild Fox vigilantly.
"He can't speak."
Cold Wind coldly said, "He is a puppet!"
"Puppet? Sure enough, it's a Sand Ninja! " Moonlight Mist Wind clenched his sword, "You dare to use our village's Ninja to make a puppet, go die!"
Dance of the Three Suns and Moons!
Moonlight Mist Wind directly used his full power.
In an instant, three Moonlight Mist Wind attacked the Wild Fox puppet from the left, middle, and right.
But the next moment, the Wild Fox puppet's hands formed a seal, and suddenly shot out a violent wind blade!
Wind Release – Great Wind Slash!
The huge wind blade that was visible to the naked eye directly cut the three Moonlight Mist Wind in half, and continued to attack Cold Wind and the others without slowing down.
"How is this possible?!" Moonlight Mist Wind, who was hiding in the dark and ready to attack, was shocked.
"The puppet actually used Ninjutsu?!"
The Moonlight people were also stunned by the scene in front of them. It was completely beyond their understanding, but fortunately, they were all experienced and dodged before the wind blade arrived.
Cold Wind said, "The puppet was a Jonin when it was alive, and it was good at Wind Release Ninjutsu, everyone be careful!"
