Nawaki quickly explained. "The enemy hasn't arrived yet, but it's only a matter of time before a battle breaks out. Just be ready to fight."
Having a sensory ninja on watch meant that the enemy would arrive soon or launch an attack during the night when everyone was resting.
Xin hadn't given a direct warning because of the unspoken understanding within his team.
As long as he showed even the slightest change in his usual demeanor, Minato and Nawaki would pick up on it immediately.
"Let's move out."
But this time, Xin's decision took them by surprise.
"Aren't we going to rest and wait?"
"No, this mission is going to be tricky. Neither the Rain Village nor the Sand Village will just sit back and let these supplies reach the front lines without a fight. There will be many enemies trying to stop us."
Xin's response was quick and firm. "We'll travel through the night and aim to arrive by morning."
In the past, Xin would have chosen to rest and continue traveling during the day.
But the current situation was different, and it was better to reach their destination as soon as possible.
The frequent scouting by Sand and Rain ninja wasn't a good sign.
"Understood,"
Minato and Nawaki nodded and went to relay the information to the others.
Soon, everyone was ready, and they continued their journey under the cover of darkness. Although traveling at night brought its own set of challenges, their pace wasn't too slow.
In the darkness, a flash of white light streaked across Xin's body before disappearing into the night.
Some distance away, a Sand Village sensory ninja, who had been hiding and observing the supply convoy from a tree, felt a sudden pain in his throat. The next second, blood sprayed from the wound.
All he could do was clutch his throat in disbelief as he fell from the tree.
In his sensory field, there had been no chakra signatures approaching.
So what was that white figure that just attacked him?
Was it some kind of special jutsu?
Or perhaps a unique summoning beast?
As a special summoning beast, Ophis was different from other tailed beasts. She don't use Chakra, Natural Energy, and blend seamlessly into the environment, avoiding detection by traditional sensory methods.
Then, it could approach the target and easily execute a one-hit kill.
How powerful Dragon attack?
How terrifying is its power?
Perhaps only those who had experienced Dragon go rampage truly understood the terror they embodied.
Killing a sensory ninja was no more difficult for Ophis than slicing through a blade of grass with its magic.
After easily eliminating one sensory ninja, Ophis headed for the next target.
In the rain-soaked night, no one would have expected that a small, white snake had transformed into a white-clad Grim Reaper, harvesting the lives of their enemies.
It wasn't long before Ophis returned to Xin's shoulder, nuzzling his face affectionately. Xin petted its little head and smiled as he asked,
"All taken care of?"
Ophis nodded, yawned, and curled its tail under its head like a pillow, settling down to sleep.
But not before giving Xin a satisfied look, a touch of pride in its eyes.
As if to say, "With Ophis on the job, it's a sure thing."
The poor enemies probably didn't even know how they died. Xin offered a silent three- second tribute to those unfortunate souls before calling out to the team behind him,
