However, just as they took a couple of steps, a gust of wind rushed overhead, accompanied by a playful "A-da!" Without even looking up, the Cloud Shinobi commander knew it was Li Zhenwu.
Li Zhenwu's movement was incredibly stealthy, making him difficult to detect without chakra, and his attack came as a complete surprise.
The commander hastily raised his arm to block, only to be knocked down by a fierce kick from Li Zhenwu!
Bang! He felt a strong impact on his arm, and though it didn't break his bones, he was still saved by chakra protection.
His knee buckled under the strain, nearly causing him to collapse.
Enraged, he drew his kunai, only to see Li Zhenwu swiftly adopt a second stance of his Afterimage Technique.
"Why is this kid so strong?" the Cloud Shinobi commander thought in shock.
In continuous battles like this, not even an adult ninja would remain unspent, yet Li Zhenwu showed no signs of fatigue.
What he didn't know was that this was a testament to Li Zhenwu's Saiyan nature.
With this delay, shadows began to jump in from all directions!
"Ding!" A kunai sliced through the space where Li Zhenwu had just been, embedding itself in the ground; Li Zhenwu's figure slowly faded, revealing it to be a mere afterimage!
Furious, the Cloud Shinobi commander could hardly contain his frustration.
He wished he could hurl the kunai directly at Li Zhenwu, yet he couldn't distinguish between Li Zhenwu's afterimage and the real one without chakra.
"The Cloud Shinobi are here!" Li Zhenwu shouted again, disrupting the commander's concentration.
Fuming and anxious, the commander saw more ninjas drawn in by Li Zhenwu's shout. Faced with the prospect of being cornered, he tossed the fallen Yunsui away and prepared to escape on his own!
"Hey, you didn't dare fight me earlier, but now that help is on the way, you think you can run? It's too late!" Li Zhenwu huffed defiantly, unwilling to let the Cloud Shinobi commander escape.
