Naruto: The Time Looper

Chapter 17: Chapter 17



Shikaru went to the front and quickly gave his orders and in a matter of seconds, the entire shinobi army started running outside of the camp and toward the the passage through the mountains.

Kazuo had seen that it was labeled as the Kiyotsu pass on the map.

Other teams had already gone there before them in secret and planted the explosives and the anbu were already hidden around the area so that they could jump out and plow their way to the main camp of the Cloud in the event that the plan worked perfectly.

However, Kazuo was doubtful.

'The chances of there being a spy or just some uncontrollable variable that we can't do anything or don't know about is just too high in a foreign country' Kazuo thought as he ran next to Shikaru.

The two were in the middle of the group surrounded on all sides by shinobi.

It was the safest spot in the entire march, considering the enemy would have to face other shinobi first before getting to them no matter what side they chose for an ambush.

The run took about one hour, they took no breaks and Kazuo clearly felt his inferiority in physical ability when he looked at the other shinobi.

However, he couldn't stop running and so he pushed through though his lungs felt like they were on fire and he was completely drenched in sweat from the high-speed run.

Finally, at the Kiyotaka pass, the shinobi army quickly passed onto the other side.

'Everything seems to be going to plan for now' Kazuo thought as the whole hundred shinobi quickly arrived at the place where they would be hiding and waiting for the signal.

The signal in this case was the explosion of the entrance to the pass, it would make a loud enough sound that they would be able to hear it clearly.

Minutes passed, and the stress of the shinobi of the leaf started rising quickly alongside it.

Some had even started to pray before the battle, in hopes that god would save them during the upcoming battle.

'God is just a damn Alien whos obsessed with his kids, he won't do jack' Kazuo thought as he looked at the praying shinobi before releasing a huff of breath.

At this moment as the whole army stood in absolute silence.

They heard it, a deafening explosion before a large cloud of black smoke quickly rose up into the air.

"Everyone, head forward into battle, eliminate any enemies that you see!" Shikaru commanded with a loud voice, likely enhanced by his chakra so that everyone could hear him clearly.

At his words the shinboi quickly launched themselves onto the tree branches and started hopping from tree to tree, quickly closing in on the enemy location.

It merely took them a minute to arrive, in front of them were the decimated forces of the cloud however strangely their numbers seemed low.

Too low...

'That bastard actually predicted it' Kazuo thought as a smile overtook his expression.

"Quickly eliminate all of them, don't leave a single one of those bastards alive!" Shikaru's voice was once more heard before the leaf ninjas released loud battle cries and launched themselves directly into the face of the remaining ninjas.

The cloud shinobi looking at the large number of enemies sported lifeless expressions.

'Being abandoned by your own village and used as nothing more than a distraction, they are all most likely just Gennin' Kazuo thought with a sneer as he followed the shinobi and entered the fray himself.

All around him clashes of swords and the sound of lighting erupted.

The two forces had finally clashed with one another.

Looking around quickly, Kazuo found his first target, it was a young cloud ninja who was being teamed up against by two-leaf shinobi.

Forming one hand sign, Kazuo used his new technique.

'Earth Style: Hiding like a mole technique' Kazuo thought inwardly, burrowing himself underground quickly before he started to move toward where the cloud ninja had been.

His movement underground was quick, possibly even quicker than above it though he hadn't tested it out yet.

Arriving just behind the cloud ninja, Kazuo peeked his head above ground and saw that he was at the right spot.

Extending his arms above ground, Kazuo caught the enemy by the foot.

Surprise colored the cloud ninja's face as he looked down and saw Kazuo giving him a grin.

"See ya!" Kazuo said before he dragged his legs down and left him with only his upper body above ground.

The leaf ninjas didn't waste the opportunity and quickly reaped his life by launching dozens of kunai into his skull.

Moving a bit sideways, Kazuo headed back aboveground.

'I have no idea why this jutsu and the decapitating just are even differentiated. You can do the same things just using this.' Kazuo wondered for a split second before looking around to see if there were any enemies around him.

There were none, the cloud ninjas were all fighting for their lives with others, and even then, the majority of their forces had already been incapacitated or killed.

Crouching down, Kazuo quickly grabbed the cloud ninja's bag and tied it to his own waist before heading to another corpse.

He only stopped when he had five ninja bags tied to his waist, any more and they would lower his ability to move and slow him down.

'Ah they do say that war is the best time to earn money' Kazuo thought to himself before looking around once more, there were no cloud ninjas left.

The battle was over.

But the war wasn't as Kazuo looked to the north.

There, hundreds of meters away, a huge army close to theirs in numbers wall running towards them.

'Couldn't they just give up?' Kazuo thought though he knew that this desire of his was but a pipe dream.

Taking out a kunai from his bag, Kazui formed the academy stance, awaiting the enemy shinobi.

This was going to be the real battle.
