When the jonin was following the trails, he suddenly sehat someone was hidihe path. Apparently, Kaida's e was also pnning on using the same trick as him, but the problem was his enemy was not some inexperienced in but a jonin.
As soon as he sehat someone was hiding, he used earth bullet jutsu in that dire. Though Kaida's e was easily able to dodge that using body flicker jutsu and then used fireball jutsu he had prepared on the jonin, which he also dodged using body flicker jutsu.
'Fireball is not fast enough to hit him, and fire breath jutsu is going to take time for preparation. I don't think I use that either. Well, let's use the sed ohe e thought and used wind bde jutsu at the jonin.
The jonin was able to sehe danger of the jutsu even though he didn't know which jutsu Kaida used, since he only made two hand signs. But since his instincts were telling him that he was in danger, he used earth style mud wall jutsu to make a dome around him. Then he kept on using the same jutsu to make the dome thicker when he saw many ssh marks appear on the walls of the dome.
'This boy is dangerous. No wonder Danzo sama sent us all just for him, but even if he is powerful, he doesn't have much experience. Let's see how yoing to deal with this,' the ninja thought.
Aook out a bottle of poison and then spread it on the ground while making another yer on the dome, which was formed from the soil and poison that read on the soil. Thearted sensing where Kaida was, but Kaida's aintained a safe distance from the dome. Sensing this, the jonin made a small opening on the dome to create a false opening and lure 'Kaida' he dome.
Unluckily, the e threw a kunai with many explosion tags attached to it into the dome through that opening.
'Fuck,' the jonin didn't have much time to use any movement jutsu. He just used iron skin jutsu in hope that he could reduce the amount of damage.
boom boom
Hearing the sound of the explosion, Kaida's e became a little rexed, but unfortunately, the jonin was not dead. Even though bones in his legs were broken, he kept on sensing Kaida's position. After sensing that he was within his attack range, he used Earth spike jutsu on the dome wall and uhem at Kaida's e.
Even though the e was able to see the ining attack clearly, he couldn't dodge them all sihe number of projectiles exceeded a huhough he skillfully defended against many of the spikes using his sword, at st, one of the spikes was able to pee his defense and made a cut on his leg. Due to the cut and poison in it, the e got dispersed swiftly, and Kaida got the memory of the e back.
As soon as that jonin saw that the oppo he was fighting was just a Shadow e, all the pns of killing or capturing Kaida got expelled from his mind.
'I was not a match for his es at my full strength. Now that I have a broken leg and half-depleted chakra reserves, there is no way I will be able to match him. I o run,' he thought. Thearted using movement jutsu to run toward one of the secret bases of Root.
He had no pn rouping or helping his subordinates, as he khat would be futile. Even he, a jonin, had to run after fronting just a e. What were the ces that some in would be able to hold on to their lives till he went to their location... 0%?
So he simply chose the best option and ran towards the root base.
...
"I will take the lead from here," Shisui said while cheg for the path that the jonin took while running away.
Normally, any other ninja would have problems finding that path since root specialized in such tasks, but with the help of the mangekyo sharingan's observational power, Shisui found the path within seds.
"Should I check my other e? Maybe he will need my help?" Kaida asked.
"Good idea, I will follow this person. You go for those three," Shisui said, as from what he could guess, those three should also be at in level and should not be able to harm Kaida. Only this guy who ran away should have had any worthy strength.
So there was no harm in sending Kaida to capture those three as well.
Kaida was just about to leave in that dire whe the memories of his e as well.
"Brother, I don't think I have to go there now," Kaida said.
"Why?" Shisui asked, thinking that maybe those three ninja may have also been successful in fleeing.
"My e had already killed them," Kaida said.
Though Shisui wao hear the full details about this, for now, his priority was to catch the jonin who was fleeing.
"Then just follow me," Shisui said, and then used body flicker jutsu to go towards the dire accurately trag the same path the jonin had taken. Kaida also followed Shisui closely.
...
(10 minutes before)
Just like the other e and Kaida, this e was also hiding oh, waiting to ambush the root ninjas.
Just as he saw the root ninja ing toward his dire, he also used fireball jutsu to turn their eyes toward him.
And just like Kaida, he also tried to cast a genjutsu on those three ninja.
But the only differen his case and what happeo Kaida was that the e didn't have the sharingan.
When Kaida tried to cast multiple genjutsu at the same time, he used the sharingan for that. Sihe e didn't have that, the ce of successful casting got reduced from 100% to 60%.
Due to which, even though two in were successfully put under genjutsu, one of the three was able to resist the genjutsu. As soon as Kaida's e felt that his casting had failed, it took out its sword, ready to ssh.
Seeing that, the in jumped back, ready to defend itself. The e took advantage of that and used body flicker jutsu to appear in front of the other two ninja.
With a ssh, two heads fell on the ground. Sihe e had also used chakra flow of fire nature, the wound was burned, and not a single drop of blood fell either from the head or the body.
When the remaining in saw that, he dispersed his chakra, suspeg whether he was actually in some genjutsu. But wheuation remaihe same even after dispersing his chakra, he became ready to stall for time.
He didn't even think that he would be able to win. His only ce for survival was if he could stall for enough time until their leader could e to their rescue…
