Because...
Sora's speed was too fast!
If Yagura's speed was rated 8, then Sora's speed was infinitely close to the maximum value of 10!
Shunpo required no hand seals!
This naturally madly increased the pace of Sora's combat!
This situation gave Jiraiya, whose speed was only 9 in his normal state, a massive headache.
Because...
He couldn't even catch up, let alone fight!
"Scatter!"
"You're no match for him!"
Jiraiya roared loudly.

"Hyorinmaru!"
"Vacuum Ice Blade!"
In an instant,
A terrifying Reiatsu emanated from Sora.
Then,
In the direction Sora swung his Zanpakuto, an ice blade over three meters long materialized, whistling towards the spinning two-headed wolf.
Fang Passing Fang!
The Inuzuka Clan's super finishing move!
It used high-speed rotation to generate fearsome kinetic energy to attack the enemy, with astonishing speed and terrifying force!
However,

Boom boom boom!
Boom boom boom!
The explosions were continuous.
The successive detonation of over a hundred explosive tags nearly sent Yagura flying into the sky.
Even though he reacted quickly and used the Body Flicker Technique to evade, he still couldn't escape this utterly unexpected ambush.
Dust billowed into the air!
Amidst the roaring explosions,
A figure was swiftly sent flying out of the dust cloud, blood spraying continuously in mid-air.

Clang clang clang!
Clang clang clang!
Yagura turned, deflecting the incoming shuriken with his kunai.
For a Kage-level Ninja, ordinary shuriken weren't particularly lethal, but the time spent deflecting them was enough for a Ninja like Jiraiya to close the distance instantly.
Whoosh~
The wind whistled.
Jiraiya came in with another elbow strike.
"Damn it!"
Seeing this, Yagura's anger flared. He'd been sucker-punched by an elbow earlier, nearly br...

"We can't hide for much longer..."
Yagura's expression was grim. "For some reason, there were no Hyuga Clan’s member in that Konoha Team earlier, but they can't stay away forever."
"Other scouting methods are manageable, but once the Hyuga's Byakugan arrives, this hiding barrier will be seen through. When that happens..."
"...we'll have to prepare for a fight to the death!"
Yagura glanced at Mei sitting across from him and continued with resolve, "When the time comes...

In the mountain forest,
Heavy fog blotted out the sky, stretching for over ten kilometers, enveloping vast areas in a dark, murky gloom where one could barely see their own hand.
At this moment,
Within this fog-shrouded area, over a dozen Ninjas wearing Konoha’s forehead protectors were searching everywhere in small groups.
Among them were Ninjas from great clans like the Inuzuka, Aburame, and Uchiha. Most of the dozen or so were Jonin, with only a few Chunin.

Boom!
Tremendous force erupted!
Yagura was sent flying by Jiraiya, crashing into a pile of rubble, sending a cloud of dust soaring into the air.
Body Flicker Technique!
Chakra Enhanced Strike!
This time, Jiraiya was serious. He held nothing back, attacking with full force from the start, determined to reduce the enemy's numbers.
"One comes, one dies?"
Jiraiya's eyes gleamed coldly, his expression ferocious, "I'm here, and then what?"

The Konoha’s Ninjas were moving at breakneck speed.
Leading them was Jiraiya. The five Ninjas behind him were also capable Jonin who could hold their own. Their elite strength placed them at team leader level, whether in the Anbu or regular forces.
Clearly,
After suffering a heavy loss against Sora earlier, Jiraiya was determined. He vowed to reclaim his lost honor.
One dead, one severely wounded…
That had stung Jiraiya's pride badly!

On the battlefield.
Another ten seconds passed.
Among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, another unlucky fellow was caught by Duy, who punched his head clean off, killing him instantly.
That unlucky fellow was Munashi Jinpachi, the wielder of the Explosion Blade, Shibuki.
He wasn't adept at speed, and his fighting style, paired with the Explosion Blade, was mostly suited for clearing out small fries on the battlefield. His one-on-one combat power wasn't particularly strong.

Mei reacted with incredible speed. The moment Yagura's warning left his mouth, she was already hurling several shuriken at the oncoming Fang Passing Fangs.

The shuriken spun through the air.
However, the flying shuriken were directly knocked aside by the fierce winds generated by the Fang Passing Fang.
Then, the two white blurs of the Fang Passing Fang swept towards Mei.

Due to the confirmed presence of Kirigakure's Seven Ninja Swordsmen within their territory, the Konoha’s Ninjas at this outpost had significantly heightened their alert level. Patrol frequency had increased from once every eight hours to once every two hours.
Centered around the outpost, one could frequently see Konoha’s Ninjas patrolling in small teams.

Starting from infiltrating Tengen Town, then the earth-shattering explosion.

Five Jonin, one Uchiha youth, Hizashi from the Hyuga Clan’s branch family, and…

The sky was overcast, the air cold and biting.
By the time Jiraiya leaped up onto the Earth-Style Wall and looked into the distance, he realized that, at some point, the area for hundreds of meters in front of him had been completely frozen over.
The ground was covered in a thick, cold layer of ice, shimmering with a diamond-like brilliance under the gloomy sunlight.
As for the Kirigakure’s Ninjas he had been fighting earlier, they had long since vanished from the spot.
