Chapter 178: Harassment
Yako flickered away from the mountaintop, picking a direction at random.
Not long after he landed, ranged attacks like kunai and explosive tags began to harass him.
A unit of Mist Ninja lurked in the surrounding dense fog. Their mission was to stall him; keeping their distance, they merely harassed him from the perimeter, leaving Yako unable to pinpoint them.
Several more kunai shot toward him from a specific direction.
Yako raised his hand, deflected the kunai, and charged toward their source.
Through the thick fog, where visibility was less than two meters, Yako spotted three figures huddled back to back.
He threw a copper-colored punch, but pulled it midway.
The people directly in front of his fist were three Hidden Leaf ninja.
To arrest his momentum, Yako's lead foot sank straight into the ground.
