Chapter 73: New and old grudges must be settled today (Ch 73)

As mentioned before, ninjas are the type with high offense and low defense. As long as their recovery ability does not reach the beast level of a certain pillar, even if Uchiha Madara comes, they will die if their necks are slit when they are caught off guard. Of course, this is the case when Uchiha Madara has no other means.

This Cloud Ninja team definitely did not have the recovery ability to reach the level of animals. Yue Yan and Minato solved it in less than half a minute.

Yue Yan, who didn’t activate the Thunder Beast Mode, didn’t have the speed of Minato, and wasn’t as elegant in dealing with the enemy as Minato, but Yue Yan’s way of dealing with the enemy was definitely quick and clean, either with a headshot or a piercing through the heart.

No weapons are needed. The limbs attached to the golden electricity are Yue Yan’s best weapons. The high temperature carried by the thunder evaporates them, and not even a drop of blood is stained.

“Yue Yan, who are you now?”

Why does Minato think Yue Yan’s Gale and Thunder mode looks like the Raikage’s lightning armor?

Hearing this, Yue Yan retracted his thunder and shrugged.

“This is considered the power saving mode of the thunder beast. After all, accumulating such a strong lightning in the body is much more troublesome than simply condensing lightning.”

After listening, Minato nodded to show that he understood, then he squatted down and began to check these Cloud Ninjas.

At this time, Zhiwei and Ding Zuo, who had been watching the show in the back, also came over and checked together.

After a few minutes, Minato stood up.

“One of these Kumogakure ninjas is a Chunin, and the rest are all Genin. They should be a team from the Kumogakure ninja team that came here to explore our Konoha supply route.”

“So is our main mission this time to clean up these teams?”

“Yes.” Minato nodded, and then added: “Clearing out these teams exploring the supply routes is one of our missions. Our most important mission is to clear out the supplies from the Kumo Ninja based on the intelligence we have gathered.”

“I see. Now our tactics of Konoha and the Kumogakure are basically the same. It depends on who destroys more supplies. Whoever wins will win.”

Listening to Yue Yan’s summary, Minato smiled and nodded.

“But we also have to be careful about the Cloud Ninjas using the excuse of transporting supplies to attract cleanup teams like ours.”

Minato was very relaxed. Even if he really encountered an ambush, he could use Flying Thunder God to take away the remaining three people. And with Yue Yan, who had excellent medical skills, he was basically invincible.

Unless the Cloud Ninja sends a group of elite jonin and the Third Raikage himself, they cannot pose any threat to Yue Yan and the others.

Konoha was also well aware of the capabilities of Minato’s team, and some clearing missions did not require them at all, but instead they were sent directly deep into the Cloud Ninja.

With Yue Yan and Minato there, there was no need to think about attacking, and it wouldn’t take more than five minutes to encounter the Cloud Ninja supply team.

As for Zhiwei and Ding Zuo, one will be responsible for using insects to explore, and the other will be responsible for logistics.

For the next two months, not a single member of the Watergate team was injured.

However, I don’t know if the Cloud Ninja realized that Minato’s team was difficult to deal with, so they blatantly released information about a large transport supply convoy to Konoha.

Konoha also noticed something was wrong. After all, it was almost obvious that this was a trap.

Either Konoha sends a sabotage team to intercept them, or they release so many supplies into the Kumogakure front line.

When the dilemma came to Minato’s team, Minato also asked other members.

“What do you think? It doesn’t matter if you give up.”

Hearing this, Zhiwei and Ding Zuo looked at each other and shrugged at the same time.

“It doesn’t matter. Just make up your mind. You can go or give up.”

Seeing this, Minato nodded and looked at Yue Yan.

“Yue Yan, what do you think?”

Hearing this, Yue Yan chuckled.

“Even if it’s a trap, can it still keep us here? Besides, these two haven’t even met a decent opponent. I’m itching to do something.”

Minato was stunned when he heard this, and then he smiled.

“It seems that Yue Yan and I have the same idea.”

Now that the decision has been made, Yue Yan and his team begin to act.

Of course, since they knew there was a trap on the other side, Yue Yan and the others would definitely not be stupid enough to step on it.

After choosing a route that the Cloud Ninja supply convoy must take, Yue Yan and his men began to set traps, such as detonating talismans and kunai with the Flying Thunder God technique, which were basically spread all over the area within a 500-meter radius. Anyway, it was all Konoha’s fault, so there was nothing to feel bad about. When the time came, they could advance or retreat, making sure they had enough backup plans when they were really defeated.

After completing the arrangements, Yue Yan and his men hid themselves, waiting for the Cloud Ninja’s supply convoy to arrive.

It was not until almost noon the next day that Yue Yan’s power grid sensed that many people were heading this way.

After Yue Yan recovered from the state of reducing consumption, he made a few gestures to inform Minato and the others to get ready.

Not long after, four carriages and a group of more than thirty Cloud Ninjas came into the sight of Yue Yan and his companions.

Before the perception ninjas from the Cloud Ninja side noticed anything unusual, Minato took the first step.

He threw out several kunai engraved with the Flying Thunder God technique, and used the Flying Thunder God technique to instantly appear next to the perceptive ninja, and before he could react, he cut his neck.

They are indeed elites. After Minato dealt with the first person, they reacted immediately and more than ten lightning attacks directly hit Minato on the head.

Seeing this, Minato gave up the option of continuing to attack and used Flying Thunder God to teleport to a tree.

“It’s golden glitter!”

After seeing Minato’s appearance and his iconic Flying Thunder God move, one of the Cloud Ninjas directly reminded everyone loudly.

Just at this moment, a figure bathed in azure blue lightning crashed through a carriage and rushed out.

After locking onto Minato, he burst into speed, instantly coming in front of Minato and punching him.

Although this figure was even faster than Yue Yan who had activated the Gale and Thunder mode, it was still not as fast as Minato’s Flying Thunder God. With a flash of golden light, Minato’s figure reappeared at another place marked by the Flying Thunder God.

At this time, Yue Yan and others also came out and stood beside Minato.

Yue Yan looked at the man who came. He was wearing the standard clothes of the Cloud Ninja and a forehead protector. He had dark skin, yellow hair tied back on his head, a tuft of beard on his chin, and an extremely confident smile on his face.

It was none other than the future Fourth Raikage Ai. At the same time, another figure came to his side. Judging from the several long swords on his back, it should be Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki.

As the atmosphere became increasingly tense, Ai was about to say something, but then he heard a scream.

“Fuck! The prison is huge!”

Everyone was attracted by these words and looked at Yue Yan.

But Yue Yan didn’t care about their gazes at all and stared at Ai.

Yue Yan clearly remembered that in his previous life, when he was playing games, he was stuck in the Anbu and was about to become a Shadow if he won one more game. That was when Yue Yan was closest to the Shadow, but he was patted on the head by a pure boy with chakra.

Yue Yan was so angry that his blood rushed to his head, his vision went dark, and he almost needed a quick-acting heart-saving pill.

Since then, Yue Yan hasn’t played games for several weeks.

Although it was all in the game before, when he saw the real person, Yue Yan had to vent it out no matter whether it was new or old grudge.
