Chapter 299
That assassin?!
Tsunade and her two companions were simultaneously shocked. They exchanged glances, as if they had suddenly realized something!
That assassin! Who else could provoke such rage from the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist? And considering that Chokaze Ringo had died from an explosion... such an assassination method, it was almost certainly Haruto Saito!
Moreover, the three of them knew that Haruto Saito was in the Poison Punishment Forest at that very moment!
So, it had to be him!
"Everyone, be careful! He's underground!" Momochi Chigen shouted as his sharp gaze swept past Tsunade's group and scanned the battlefield.
He was considering his next move.
Blast the ground?
If he did, would Tsunade and the others intervene? But if he didn't force the assassin to the surface, they would have to remain on guard at all times. That would be an enormous hassle, and it would also limit their movements while attacking Tsunade's group.
Suddenly!
Dozens of meters away, at the site of the explosion, a figure appeared out of thin air—it was Haruto Saito!
