Chapter 79
The scene before her was a hellish carnage. Tsunade's mouth hung open slightly; no matter how she thought of it, she never expected to witness such devastation.
Without a doubt, Nara Suzaku had failed. Originally, she believed that even if they couldn’t take down Neiki, they could at least hold him off. After all, Suzaku was so clever. He knew how to fight and when not to fight, didn't he?
However, reality had given Tsunade a harsh slap in the face.
Nara Suzaku and his team hadn’t just failed to capture Neiki; they hadn't even put up a proper fight against him. They didn’t even have a chance to escape. Over a dozen highly skilled Konoha shinobi, at least Special Jonin, had been silently wiped out on this seemingly unremarkable island.
The air was heavy with silence, only disturbed by the sound of rain and wind rustling the leaves.
Neiki calmly stared in Tsunade’s direction. Their eyes didn't meet; Tsunade’s gaze was fixed behind him. Neiki turned to see Hayama Byakumo, who he had just stabbed in the chest, struggling to write something in the air with his bloody fingers.
“You’re loyal, I’ll give you that,” Neiki shook his head, slightly amused at Byakumo’s attempt to be useful even now.
Tsunade's face contorted in anger. She wanted to rush forward, but it was already too late.
Thud!
