Chapter 152: Smart People Die Quickly

Snap!

Inside the Yun Yin Camp, the Commander angrily smashed the teacup onto the ground.

He listened to his subordinate's report, his face looking very grim.

Lord Raikage's strongest personal guard was actually killed!

This matter must be reported to Lord Raikage immediately!

But right now we have no clue of Lord Raikage's whereabouts…

"Zhi Qi Guan Da Ren, the Guard Lord has fallen in battle," the messenger ninja, kneeling on the ground with his forehead pressed to the earth, said, "He inadvertently was poisoned by the Uchiha, and ultimately the poison claimed his life!"

The Commander hammered his fist onto the sand table, causing the Konoha flag to shake and wobble wildly.

He suddenly recalled something: before departing, Lord Raikage had dispatched Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao to the battlefield to assist the strong man in killing Konoha ninja.

There were two Elite Jonin assisting nearby; with the Guard Lord's strength, they could not possibly be killed easily.

Something must have happened in this...

The Commander roared angrily, "Where are Jinyin Jiaoyin?! Lord Raikage clearly sent those brothers to aid the battle!"

Silence fell inside the camp.

Deputy Officer forced himself forward and explained, "We did not see those two lords on the battlefield…"

Hearing this, the Commander's face turned ashen, "Those two scoundrels actually dared to abandon their post; I will report this in full to Lord Raikage!"

Obviously, the strong man's death bears great responsibility on Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao.

If the two brothers were on the battlefield, that Uchiha could not have succeeded.

Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao are powerful Elite Jonin wielding Six Paths Artifacts; as long as the three of them combine to slay the enemy, Konoha could never win, and Lord Raikage's personal guard could never fall in battle!

"Where on earth have Jinyin Jiaoyin gone?" the Commander shouted, "Quickly go fetch them!"

"Yes, Zhi Qi Guan Da Ren!" the Deputy Officer turned to leave.

At that moment, the camp's curtains were violently ripped aside, and a heavy scent of blood instantly spread.

"No need to look any further, we're here!"

Jin Jiao's mouth corner still bore fresh blood, while Yin Jiao nonchalantly tossed a Cloud Ninja Forehead Protector.

The Commander's face darkened like iron instantly, "You abandoned your post, causing the Guard Lord to fall alone in battle!"

When the two arrived at the camp, they already knew of the strong man's death.

This was literally the best news ever!

With that, no one could point fingers at them any longer.

Without Lord Raikage and the strong man, they could run amok on the battlefield.

Given the brothers' credentials, aspiring to become Lord Raikage was no big deal.

After all, the Village has many Jonin who back them…

Facing the Commander's interrogation, Jin Jiao grinned, baring beast-like teeth, "That brute's dead, so what of us?"

Yin Jiao then threw the protector to the ground, spat out a Purple Gold Gourd and a Seven Star Sword, and snarled, "You squeaky bastard, you're killing me with your chatter!"

The temperature inside the camp dropped sharply.

The Commander, watching Yin Jiao pull out the gourd, suddenly felt a pang of anxiety.

Could this guy be planning to strike me?

With Lord Raikage absent, if they really made a move, the Commander truly wouldn't be a match for the two brothers.

He was about to urge them to calm down when the Deputy Officer spoke first.

"Audacious! Do you think you can seize power and fail?!"

Hearing that, the Commander's face turned pale instantly, and he even felt the urge to kill the Deputy Officer.

At this point, the Deputy Officer still hadn't realized the seriousness of the situation.

Jin Jiao's pupils instantly became vertical, beast-like slits, red chakra surfacing on his body: "Smart people die quickly…"

"Bastard, do you really think you can seize power and fail?!" The Deputy Officer's hand already gripped his Kunai.

Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao gave no response, launching an unannounced attack.

……

The Commander's corpse was hung on the camp's flagpole, his neck twisted by the Huang Jin Rope.

The Deputy Officer's head rolled onto the sand table's edge, the headless body was tossed out of the camp.

The two proclaimed the shift of power in the most brutal way.

Upon learning of the strong man's death, the brothers launched a coup without hesitation.

After all, they had also killed Lord Raikage…

Dozens of Jonin stood behind Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao, all loyal subordinates.

The camp's Cloud Ninja, seeing this scene, all showed horrified expressions.

They hadn't expected the Jin brothers to go so mad as to kill the Commander!

If Lord Raikage learned of this, the two would certainly not get away with it.

"From now on, this place is under our brothers' control," Yin Jiao kicked the Deputy Officer's head away, gripping the Red Gourd in his hand, "Anyone with objections may step forward."

"Are you trying to seize power?" several Cloud Ninja immediately stepped forward, pointing at the two and questioning.

"When Lord Raikage returns, we will never let you go unpunished!"

Jin Jiao toyed with the Banana Leaf Fan, giving it a casual swing.

"Boom!"

A five-element Chakra Storm swept toward the few speaking.

Those people hadn't time to react before they were instantly twisted into a spray of blood.

In the scarlet Blood Mist, Jin Jiao licked the shreds of flesh clinging to the corner of his mouth. "Anyone else want to try?"

This time, none of the Cloud Ninja present dared to speak.

Seeing no one objected, Jin Jiao revealed a satisfied smile.

He crushed the Deputy Officer's head underfoot and announced, "All troops, hear my command!"

…………

Konoha Commander's Camp.

Upon learning the news of the great victory on the front lines, the Nara Commander clenched his fists in excitement.

Konoha had finally achieved victory in the war against Cloud Hidden.

Especially after learning that the powerful giant had been killed, the Nara Commander's grin nearly stretched to his ears.

That giant had been active on the battlefield recently, causing Konoha great losses.

Now, hearing the news of his death, it was simply tremendous good news.

He quickly asked the ninja responsible for the report, "Who killed him?"

The reporting ninja shook his head. "I don't know him, but he has the Sharingan."

He was only from the reconnaissance squad and hadn't participated in the battle.

As soon as he saw the giant die, he immediately returned to report.

"Someone from the Uchiha Clan?" The Nara Commander fell into thought.

In his impression, the Uchiha shouldn't have had the strength to kill that giant.

Even the clan leader, Uchiha Tanaka, had been firmly suppressed by the giant during battle and ultimately forced to retreat in disgrace.

"By the way, that Uchiha is acquainted with the Sarutobi, Mirror, and En Jonin," the ninja added.

The Nara Commander suddenly recalled the intelligence the clan leader had sent from the Southwest Battlefield earlier.

It was filled with praise for Lian Ye's contributions on the Southwest Battlefield.

At first, he didn't know who Lian Ye was and had to ask others to find out.

"Could it be him?!"

Though it was a question, he was very certain.

Because the only Uchiha who fit the description was Lian Ye, and the clan leader had said the Poison he developed was very strong...

The Nara Commander easily deduced the whole course of events.

With the assistance of Yuanfei Rizhan and the others, combined with a powerful Poison, there was indeed a chance to kill the giant!

The Nara Commander instructed the reporting ninja, "Notify me the moment Renya Jonin returns!"

After the reporting ninja left, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion:

"The clan leader's words were really spot on."
