One Punch Man System In Naruto World - Chapter 26

Tsumugi and her team met with the scouting team in the forest.

Tsumugi “Haia what did you find out ”

Haia ” my team didn’t find any hidden leaf ninjas in the vicinity… there was a message from one of our spies, it seems like team Hiruzen was disbanded and a new team was formed with his disciples and a new rookie as members … I can’t verify if the informant deliberately hid this from us or all this is just a coincidence …. but one thing is for sure our target the third hokage didn’t leave the village ”

Tsumugi ” what a waste,…. since we are here, we might as well, take care of some future troubles and nip some buds in the cradle…. we don’t need to go with the original plan, it’s just some brats….. I will leave this to your team Haia ”

……………

Team 9 collected all the information from the villagers and set out for the general location where the bandits were active.

jiyuu [ why am i having a bad premonition, there shouldn’t be any big danger involved in this mission… system scan the radius in two minute intervals ]

The other team member of the team didn’t find anything wrong. But Orochimaru was as vigilant as ever … only Jiraya remained a little clueless …

As they were closing in on the location, jiyuu detected movements through his scan. He halted all of a sudden and gestured to the others.

Jiraya ” Hey , brother do you want to take a leak… you know you should take care of these things before the mission, always… look at me…”

Orochimaru was more perceiving, after seeing jiyuu’s serious face, he interrupted jiraya and asked.

Orochimaru ” Jiraya stop. What is the matter jiyuu..”

Jiyuu ” I think someone is trying to ambush us, we need to be extra careful ”

Jiraya ” what are you saying, they are some riff raff bandits… I can take care of them alone… you are a little tense because this is your first mission…”

Tsunade ” Jiraya is right jiyuu, we have completed similar mission easily …. The bandits may look ferocious but they have no real strength…”

Orochimaru ” stop it both of you, what did you find out ..”

Jiyuu ” I think they are no bandits,…. they seem to be ninja’s from their speed and movement … but i don’t know from which village… they will surround us within 10 minutes ”

Jiraya and Tsunade ” what…”

Orochimaru ” how many and what level…”

jiyuu ” There are four of them, from their speed most probably chunin or above…. ”

Orochimaru ” is there a way to avoid the encirclement ”

Jiyuu ” i think they have a sensory type ninja among them… completely escaping would be difficult …. but there’s a chance to avoid encirclement if we moved towards 8 o’ clock…”

Orochimaru ” We can’t engage the enemy, we need a diversion …. we will use decoys to distract them and escape…”

Orochimaru used the shadow clone jutsu, to create four clones and then transformation jutsu to change the appearance of the clones to look like that of his team members. Now the clones looked identical to team 9 members and they started moving in the original direction, while the real team 9 changed their direction to 8 o’ clock.

Jiyuu purposefully pointed out the 8 o’ clock direction because he had already scanned and found that the ninja in that direction was weakest among the attackers and the chance of escaping was high. But still the opponent was a jonin who was recently promoted …

In reality the system had come up with a better plan, according to the system three clones and one real member, probably jiyuu should act as bait. The clones and jiyuu will move in the 8 o’ clock direction while the other team members will hide in the current position. jiyuu will engage the enemy in 8 o’ clock while the three clones escape, making it look like the real team members have escaped making jiyuu the decoy. Later jiyuu would also escape after attracting all the enemies towards him, making it look like everyone escaped.

While the enemies follow jiyuu and clones, the rest of the team member would also escape and would meet up with jiyuu on a specified location. With jiyuu’s current strength this plan had a high rate of success. But jiyuu didn’t reveal this plan as it might create an argument on who should be the decoy and he also felt that, they could escape in the 8 o’ clock direction with their current strength.

10 minutes passed by quickly, team 9 was moving with full speed, but the clones had already engaged with the first enemy that was moving from the opposite direction .
