From what Daibai sensed, one of the four people had a lot of chakra, while the other three had very little.
From this, it can be judged that the other party also has a standard configuration: a Jonin plus three Genin.
Of course, no matter who they are, crossing the border to come here makes them enemies now.
It's such a remote place, yet a team of ninjas just happens to be passing through here to carry out a mission. It all seems too coincidental.
So, to a large extent, the other party is also here for this gold mine.
As for how the news leaked, there are too many possible reasons.
The Rain Country, the ninja who escaped, and even Konoha are all likely sources of the information leak.
However, these are not things that Tatsumi needs to worry about.
They had already given up on this mission, but the sudden arrival of the ninjas has disrupted their plans. What they need to do is survive.
"Tatsumi, did you notify Teacher Orochimaru?" Nawaki asked, standing next to Tatsumi.
"I have already notified Teacher Orochimaru and Teacher Tsunade," Tatsumi nodded.
"What did they say?"
"Teacher Orochimaru hasn't responded yet, but Teacher Tsunade is on her way."
"Then what do we do now? Leave and go meet up with Teacher Tsunade?" Mikoto asked.
Tatsumi shook his head.
"No."
"There's no need anymore."
"The enemy is approaching us rapidly right now," Tatsumi explained.
"There's also a sensory ninja in the enemy team. We've already been discovered."
"Judging from the amount of chakra, the other party should be a Jonin plus three Genin, one of whom is a sensory-type ninja."
"So, just based on the configuration, we are now at a complete advantage," Tatsumi nodded.
"Huh?" Kushina showed a dazed expression.
We have a complete advantage?
Where did that come from?
The other side has a Jonin and Genin. We have four students here. No matter how you look at it, we are at a disadvantage.
Tatsumi continued to analyze.
"The other party is very fast and very close to us. If we run now, we can't possibly outrun their Jonin."
"Moreover, we have traps set up here. We just need to make good use of this place, lure the other party into the traps, stall them, and wait for Teacher Tsunade to come."
The other three had no objections.
But to stall the other party, there must be someone who can stall their Jonin.
"Alright, let's go receive our guests first."
Swish swish swish!
The group of four disappeared directly from the tent.
Running quickly, Manase suddenly stopped.
Sakada, who was walking in the front, immediately signaled everyone to stop.
"What's wrong?" Sakada asked.
"Ahead, enemies, coming," the girl named Manase said quickly.
"Everyone, be careful, the target has appeared," Jonin Sakada said softly, and the other two nodded upon hearing this.
He himself then took out a signal flare.
Although he said he would fight two Jonin, for the safety of his lovely subordinates, he had to fire a signal flare to get another team to help, right?
This reason is perfect.
Just as he was about to open the signal flare, four ninjas suddenly appeared in front of him.
However, these ninjas were only about ten years old.
Sakada signaled Manase with his eyes. Manase shook her head, "Only them."
Sakada nodded and put the signal flare he had taken out back.
He laughed and said, "Was I too cautious? It seems it's my lucky day, Sakada. At this rate, I won't even need to take action."
Sakada carefully looked at the ninjas in front of him. There were no traces of them using the Transformation Technique, and they hadn't concealed their chakra fluctuations either. They were undoubtedly Genin.
Tatsumi and the others stood on top of the tree, looking at the ninjas opposite them.
"Who are you?" What Tatsumi had to do now was to delay time.
"I am Sakada, what do you need?"
Tatsumi smiled, "Sunagakure is really generous, dispatching Jonin-level ninjas."
"Now that the five major ninja countries are in a state of extreme tension, Sunagakure has sent elite ninjas like you to the Land of Fire. You don't want to start a war, do you?" Tatsumi continued.
The three kids were shocked, only Sakada laughed, "Kid, what are you talking about? We are not Suna ninjas, I hate Suna ninjas the most."
"That's right, I also hate those Suna bastards the most. They're rude, not to mention they don't like to bathe. Don't you think so?" Tatsumi nodded.
Kimura was angry and wanted to rush over, but Watanabe pulled him back.
Nawaki and the others' bodies began to tense up, ready to fight at any moment.
"Are we going to take care of these salted fish now?" Nawaki asked.
Sakada was stunned when he heard this sentence. Salted fish? You really dare to say that.
Although this battle was inevitable, the words of that brownish-yellow-haired kid made him very unhappy.
So, he would prioritize dealing with this kid in a while.
Nawaki noticed the gaze sweeping over and felt a chill down his crotch.
"Hey, you're not ninjas from the Rain Country, are you?" Jonin Sakada suddenly asked.
"Hmm? How did you know?" Tatsumi asked.
"It's simple, I've long heard that Konoha's Genin are especially powerful and shouldn't be provoked. I didn't believe it before, but now I understand that it's true," Sakada laughed.
"But since people from Konoha have appeared here, it seems that the information has leaked. Have you already found the gold mine? Where is your Jonin leader?"
Tatsumi just smiled lightly, "We only kill your people, nothing else."
"Oh well, oh well. Capturing you guys is enough. Dead people are more reliable than living people," Sakada pushed his glasses and then stepped forward.
Just as Sakada moved, "Pa!" a crisp sound rang out.
Sakada suddenly felt a surge of killing intent appear in the forest.
This fierce killing intent caused his pores to open wide, and his body couldn't help but tremble!
The hairs on the back of Sakada's head stood on end in an instant, and he suddenly turned his head.
The wind passed through the mountains and fields, and at this time, the dusk was peaceful. In the air, the leaves swayed, and the sunlight seemed to sway with them.
In the forest, a black kunai suddenly came rushing out, cutting through the wind.
The kunai immediately shot through Kimura's head.
Blood and corpses flew up.
The black-haired boy opposite him had appeared in front of Sakada at some point.
Sakada's first reaction was actually to retreat, but the seemingly hurried footsteps could not avoid the boy's leisurely advance.
When Sakada flicked his kunai and stabbed diagonally at the first moment, the hand he raised with the kunai was also blocked by the boy.
Sakada's entire body was thrown into the air.
