At this moment, Sora did not answer.
Instead, his subordinate, Matsunaga Yuzuki took a deep breath and slowly recounted the entire mission process in detail.
Starting from infiltrating Tengen Town, then the earth-shattering explosion.
After the explosion, the team, intending to take advantage of the chaos, encountered the Konoha's team that happened to be passing by.
Five Jonin, one Uchiha youth, Hizashi from the Hyuga Clan's branch family, and…
Jiraiya!
After that, the Anbu Team was single-handedly crushed by Jiraiya. The Chunin, Mitsugi died, Kurumi was severely injured, and the Jonin, Matsunaga Yuzuki and Yato Toden were also heavily wounded, almost losing their combat ability.
Hearing this, Yagura's expression had already become tense. As a battle-hardened Ninja, he could naturally feel the desperate, murderous atmosphere of that battlefield.
However,
When Sora, after destroying the town's ammunition depot, flickered to the scene, the entire battle situation was completely reversed.
With one slash, he severed Hizashi's arm!
With another slash, he killed Hizashi!
Then, relying on his own strength, he faced the Sannin, Jiraiya head-on, and even held his own against the encirclement and attack of the other Konoha's Ninjas, even severely injuring the Uchiha youth.
This was an achievement of the utmost incredibility!
Don't forget!
Sora's opponent was Konoha's Sannin, Jiraiya, a true powerhouse standing at the pinnacle of the Ninja World. Even looking across the entire Kirigakure, the number of Ninjas who could face Jiraiya could be counted on one hand.
At least based on the situation on the front lines, both the head of the Intelligence Division, Fuguki, and Yagura himself were at an absolute disadvantage in a one-on-one fight against Jiraiya.
While they might not be instantly killed, achieving victory was almost an impossibility.
Therefore, when Yagura heard that Sora, relying on his own strength, managed to repel Jiraiya while also protecting his severely injured Anbu Team, the excitement and shock in his heart were uncontrollable.
'Unimaginable!'
'Sora was actually this strong!'
'It was too unbelievable!'
Yagura simply couldn't believe that this youth, whom he had practically watched grow up, had become so powerful!
"Sora."
"You are too outstanding."
Yagura did not stint on praise, saying, "I think with your talent and strength, the position of Anbu Captain probably won't be able to contain you for much longer."
Fighting evenly with, repelling Jiraiya, and retrieving the Hyuga Clan's Byakugan from amidst a Konoha's Ninja encirclement… these were not things an ordinary Ninja could accomplish.
Without exaggeration, the number of people in Kirigakure currently capable of this feat probably didn't exceed three!!
"The enemy is in the open, we are in the dark."
Sora, however, didn't let it go to his head and said calmly, "If Jiraiya also knew information about me, and we truly engaged in a one-on-one fight to the death, my chances of winning would probably only be around fifty percent."
Mount Myoboku's Sage Mode!
Sora had never underestimated Jiraiya. On the contrary, his attitude towards Konoha's top-tier Ninjas was relatively cautious and careful.
After all-
Even the seemingly weakest among them, Danzo, in the original storyline, almost killed the Mangekyo Sharingan Sasuke. He was definitely not a simple character.
"Uhh…"
"That's already very strong."
Sora's single sentence made the corner of Yagura's mouth twitch involuntarily.
'What do you mean 'only around fifty percent'…'
'Only!??'
Yagura believed that if he were to duel Jiraiya one-on-one, his chances of winning would be considered excellent if they reached thirty or forty percent!
'Fifty percent?'
'Sora!'
'Are you sure you're not just showing off in front of your senpai?'
"In any case, if we successfully extract Hizashi's Byakugan, I will apply to Mizukage-sama to have one of them transplanted onto you."
"After all…"
"You are the one who contributed the most to this!"
Yagura said with a light laugh, his gaze towards Sora still full of amazement and shock.
"Forget it!"
Sora waved his hand dismissively. As he turned to leave the tent, he said, "I have no interest in the Hyuga Clan's Byakugan. Give it to someone else who's interested!"
Byakugan?
Hizashi's?
You must be joking!
If he really installed one of those things, Sora suspected his combat power might drop significantly due to his body's immune rejection!
With the [Eternal Shinigami Master System] in hand, Sora looked down on this second-rate Kekkei Genkai. He'd rather spend that energy thinking of ways to trigger more special missions and obtain top-tier Zanpakuto like Kyoka Suigetsu or Ryujin Jakka sooner!!!
"Follow Sora well."
After Sora left the tent, Yagura's previously gentle smile vanished, his expression suddenly turning serious. "Yuzuki, Toden, if you ever do something you shouldn't in the future, even if Sora might be soft-hearted, I will step in and deal with you myself. Understood?"
"Yes, Yagura-sama."
Matsunaga Yuzuki and Yato Toden quickly bowed, their voices filled with awe and respect.
Seeing their respectful demeanor, Yagura's stern expression softened a little.
It couldn't be helped.
The Village of the Bloody Mist was most famous for subordinates overthrowing superiors. Instances of subordinates assassinating their superiors weren't annual events, but major ones happened every three to five years.
With Sora's kind and gentle nature, it was possible his subordinates might lack the proper fear and commit an act of great treachery.
