Chapter 227: Ch.227 Accidental Killing!
"Interception team?!"
In an instant, the gazes of both Kimimaro's and Neji's squads were drawn to the three interception team members who had burst onto the scene.
Undoubtedly,
These three who intruded upon their standoff were none other than Night Owl's group, who had encountered Uchiha Shinji not long ago and had their Hogan dug out.
Because the two among them who had the Hogan had now lost their eyes, and Night Owl himself had injured legs, they fled in haste. They hadn't noticed the Kimimaro and Neji squads locked in confrontation within the forest, and so they crashed right in.
"It's just a bunch of brats!"
The only one of Night Owl's subordinates who still had his eyes informed Night Owl of the situation.
Realizing their opponents were merely a group of academy students, Night Owl barked, "Ignore them—charge through!"
At Night Owl's command, the three of them formed a wedge and charged straight toward Kimimaro and Neji, who were in the center of the clearing, locked in a standoff.
Even though they were severely wounded, with two of them having lost their eyes and Night Owl's legs injured, as an experienced jōnin, Night Owl still didn't take a bunch of shinobi academy students seriously.
Watching the suddenly appearing interception team rushing at them, Shion, Kurama Yakumo, Tenten, and Lee were flabbergasted.
