"Incredible."
Jiraiya looked at the departing figures of the Ant People, unable to snap out of it for a long time.
Monster #626, glowing moss, golden fruits, Chakra, these four things had formed the ecology underground here, even creating an underground civilization.
Yakushi Kabuto pushed up his slipping glasses once more, interestedly said, "Such an ecology, simple yet fragile."
"Let's not bother about the Ant People anymore." Tsunade said calmly, "Let's go to the lake and see where the monster is hiding, so we can proceed with our action."
As for whether the Ant People would go extinct after the elimination of #626... Tsunade didn't want to dwell on that. Being a Ninja meant that, except for one's own comrades, one shouldn't have excessive emotions toward other people or things during a mission.
Orochimaru glanced at Tsunade and didn't say much, just headed to the lake with her and Jiraiya.
