Chapter 267: Did They Take Medicine?
The Konoha squads sprinted through the high mountains of the Land of Moon.
Every ninja brimmed with excitement, knowing that if they charged too slowly, there would be no enemies left to claim.
The Cloud Ninja commander, Garui, patriarch of the Storm Release clan, had been slain by the Konoha commander, Hatake Sakumo.
Konoha's fighting spirit was high and their momentum surging. Having lost their battlefield pillar, the Cloud Ninja fled in a panic.
Hatake Sakumo remained extremely cautious. Fearing traps deep within the Land of Moon could cause massive casualties if the Konoha ninja advanced too recklessly, he did not issue the order to split up and pursue.
If they separated to give chase, the squads would be unable to support one another, making it far too dangerous.
The front line was simply too wide for Hatake Sakumo to watch over everything.
The Fox Squad didn't disperse either; its four sub-squads each hunted for Cloud Ninja units not far from Yako.
Yak watched the massive disturbances caused by ninjutsu in the distance, his mind filled with confusion.
