The base's helicopters reached the Jihe lineage first, with about twenty armed helicopters buzzing in with searchlights and surrounding the village at the foot of Inari Mountain where the Jihe were located.
Completely encircled by the formidable group of armed helicopters, all of the ninjas patrolling the Jihe village were dumbfounded.
Suddenly, the Jihe Clan Leader charged out from a room, looked up to the sky with a grim face.
This immense commotion soon stirred up the entire village, causing everyone to mill about anxiously and step out of their houses.
Upon seeing the armed helicopter fleet, each face turned deathly pale.
"What happened?" the Clan Leader asked with a dark expression to the patrol captain by his side.
"I...I'm not sure!" The ninja in charge of the night patrol swallowed hard, equally panicked.
"Dammit, could it be that the other two lineages want to completely eradicate our Jihe?" the Clan Leader said darkly.
