Yamamoto Jiro stood in the jungle, where the smoke of battle had yet to fully dissipate. The air was thick with the acrid scent of gunpowder and the stench of blood. His eyes remained bloodshot, burning with fury and deep resentment. Watching his men push forward in their search, he roared at the radio operator beside him, "Quick! Send a message to Colonel Uesugi Kazuya. Inform him of the situation here."
The operator scrambled to respond, opening the radio set and frantically tuning the frequency. With a nervous expression, he waited for Yamamoto Jiro’s instructions.
Gritting his teeth, Yamamoto Jiro spoke with venom, "Tell him we have discovered the trail of the Nether Assassin and his cohorts. These cunning vermin are extremely savage. They first wiped out our scout reconnaissance team, then they even used the remains of the Empire’s brave soldiers to booby-trap the area. Our search squad was caught completely off guard, and over half have been killed or wounded. The enemy’s whereabouts are currently unknown, and I have decided to expand the search radius."
