Chapter 234: Shadows in the Expanse

The leader of Team Vesper gritted her teeth, realizing they were outmatched. "Fall back!" she ordered, signaling her team to retreat.
Dabi's team held their ground, watching as their opponents vanished into the jungle.
"That was too close," Jeni said, catching her breath.
Dabi nodded. "They were strong, but we were stronger. Let's keep moving. We can't afford to lose momentum." We need be more careful. There might be more teams around here waiting for an ambush. They move forward.
That evening, the team found a secure clearing to rest. As they sat around a small fire, the weight of the day's events hung over them.
"They're not the only team we'll face," Kiba said, his voice low. "And they won't all retreat so easily." I have a felling they will be back.
"We'll handle it," Dabi said firmly. "We've come too far to let anyone stop us now."
