His entire body covered in sweat, Kazuo woke up once more.
It was the same day, again...
His thoughts were in shambles from the pain he had just experienced, sometimes he felt like it was worse than if he had actually survived with deadly wounds all over his body.
Then his mind wouldn't be so confused every time he regressed back in time.
'I was ambushed?' Kazuo thought as he remembered how the day had gone.
Nothing had seemed out of place, Shikaru also wasn't the one responsible for this, he didn't need to hide his hand if he wanted to get rid of Kazuo.
'The cloud, there's a spy in the camp' Kazuo thought as his eyes sharpened, glinting in the darkness of his tent.
'You want to kill me? Then be prepared for hell you fucker' Kazuo thought before quickly getting out of bed and gearing up.
'They came into the tent whilst I was out training or during the time that I was inside the commander's tent. This means that they had at least a two-hour time span where they could implant the explosion tags whilst I was gone.' Kazuo thought as he quickly analyzed the situation.
'The problem is that I don't have a jutsu like a shadow clone which I can leave here, and I also don't have any jutsu capable of setting traps that are triggered by intruders. However now that I know what that bastard is planning, I just need to look around carefully just before I head into the tent. That guy must be watching, ensuring that his plan works and that I die.' Kazuo thought, quickly coming to a decision.
Heading out of the tent, he followed everything he had done yesterday, the only thing he changed was when Shikaru asked him of what he thought about the plan.
This time he did include the Hyuga in his theory however he left the other part out.
Shikaru seemed much more pleased this time though he was still critical of his narrow thinking.
Heading outside of the commander's tent, Kazuo tightened his fists.
His body and mind entered combat readiness as he walked toward his tent.
Looking around as discreetly as he could, Kazuo saw five shinobi around his tent.
'Five suspects, five time loops.' Kazuo thought before his face contored to show a somewhat deranged smile which he quickly hid behind a poker face.
'You think ill let this shit slide, especially when I have something to profit from if I catch you? Hah,' Kazuo sneered as he walked to the first shinobi.
He looked just like any random leaf shinobi, if someone were to ask Kazuo what the stereotypical leaf ninja looked like then it would be this guy.
With a large smile on his face, short light brown hair, and dark brown eyes with a leaf headband on his forehead.
"Hey!" Kazuo said as he waved at the man.
Turning around the guy gave Kazuo a large smile before returning the wave.
"Could you come with me to my tent? I wanted to ask you some questions senior if it's all right of course." Kazuo asked the man.
"Of course, I would be glad to offer my help." The guy said with that same naive smile on his face.
"Thank you, i was thinking of inviting everyone here, how about it" Kazuo said before raising his voice so that the four others could hear him.
This plan had just formed inside Kazuos head and he had decided to put it into action immediately.
Why go after the spy whilst dying each time to verify it when he could simply get all five at the same time, and when the spy was caught he would have four people to help him as well?
The other four also gave words of affirmation and nods before all five followed Kazuo into his tent.
'It didn't explode' Kazuo thought with a small smile appearing on his face.
His eyes grew even sharper as he looked at them.
"Do you think I wouldn't notice?" Kazuo asked, his tone firm as he looked at the five.
"Notice what Kazuo?" The first shinobi asked Kazuo, his voice confused.
"There is no use hiding it, Cloud spy," Kazuo said.
"Cloud spy? What the hell are you on?" One of the men said his voice betraying his emotional turmoil at Kazuo's words.
"It is exactly what I said, I've already removed the explosion tags from here, I suggest you come forward before I kill you," Kazuo said, lifting his arms up and making a rat seal.
This was a lie, Kazuo had no time or way to remove the explosion tags however bluffing was a major part of acting.
His words as well as the seriousness that Kazuo carried at the moment seemed to shock the shinobi before they all quickly turned serious.
Haaah
The man who had seemed angry at Kazuo held his forehead whilst he shook his head.
"I guess we did underestimate you," He said
'So it was you.' Kazuo thought as he turned to face the man before he was taken aback.
All five of the men gave him chilling smiles before they all made a hand sign simultaneously.
"Kai"
'Ah, you fuckers' Kazuo thought before a large explosion erupted once more.
Incinerating both Kazuo and the other men, leaving nothing but their charred corpses behind.
Outside of the tent which had caught on fire, shinobi quickly rushed to the location.
"That's Kazuos tent, an ambush," One of the shinobi said before he rushed and quickly made hand seals, a flood of water erupting from his mouth and dousing the fire that had started to spread.
Shikaru and the other captains didn't take long, merely a few seconds before they also arrived at the scene.
"It looks like they wanted to get rid of him huh," Shikaru said, his voice calm as he looked at fire.
"Those bastards"
"Cloud scum, I swear ill kill them all and avenge Kazuo and the other fallen comrades," One of the shinobi said, his words ignited a fuse as every shinobi started getting engulfed in rage.
"Aren't you making my grave too quickly?"
A voice said, causing everyone to turn their heads toward him.
Shikaru similarly turned around and gave him a smile.
It was Kazuo, he had no wounds on his body and he looked perfectly fine.
