Chapter 54: Trap
A terrifying explosion erupted in the cave behind them!
Captain Yellow Dog was a Fire Release Jonin. An explosion of that scale had to be his doing.
Yako couldn't use Fire Release, so he didn't know if it consumed oxygen. If it did, wouldn't the people inside the cave suffocate?
In any normal fire, over ninety percent of victims died from toxic smoke and suffocation rather than the flames themselves.
Yako steered well clear of the cave.
He had already warned Captain Yellow Dog in advance, doing everything in his power. Now that the sky was falling, it was up to the taller men to hold it up.
The Anbu squad had dealt with the two Iwa Ninja sneaking underground, but two more Iwa Ninja squads suddenly appeared from the woods ahead.
Yako created a Shadow Clone Technique duplicate to stand guard in front of Purple Cat.
The clone would protect her while she seized the opportunity to use her Mind Transfer Jutsu.
