As Aoi Ren was still ranting, a rustling sound of footsteps suddenly came from behind him...
"Someone's coming! Who is it?"
Might Guy was about to move, but Uchiha Kagami emerged from the shadows. "It's me, Uchiha Kagami!"
It turned out that Uchiha Kagami, upon discovering they were heading to Sunagakure, had followed the path they had opened.
Although he disliked Aoi Ren's methods, he wouldn't stand by and watch him commit suicide.
However...
"What are you two doing hiding here?" Uchiha Kagami's eyes widened in confusion. "Where's Aoi Ren? Where did he go?"
"Over there..." Hyūga Hiashi covered his face, unable to speak from sheer embarrassment. It was too disgraceful.
Why did he have to go and provoke them at their doorstep like that?
"That guy..." Uchiha Kagami froze for a moment, then shook his head with a strange, bitter smile. "Just as Brother Hiruzen said, he's an unpredictable one."
But could simply insulting them make them come out?
"DAMN IT ALL! I can't take it anymore!" An impulsive sand ninja leaped out of the canyon, gritting his teeth as he charged at Aoi Ren.
"I'm going to kill you!"
"Dragon Chidori!"
A pale arc of electricity, traveling nearly a hundred meters, pierced directly through the sand ninja's chest, instantly killing him.
Seeing this...
"You bastard!" Four more sand ninja leaped out. "I don't care if you have an ambush or not! I'm going to kill you!"
"Dragon Chidori!"
The pale electric light split into four streams in mid-air. A second later, a few more mangled corpses lay in front of the sand ninja's canyon.
One person's impulsiveness led to the entire team's demise—such was the terror of a foolish teammate...
From this, one could also see how rapidly Aoi Ren had improved.
The small sand ninja squads that once required intricate planning to defeat could now be effortlessly annihilated with a flick of his finger!
A little while later...
"That guy is Aoi Ren!"
"The Aoi Ren who killed the Kazekage!"
"That guy actually dares to show his face here again!" Finally, someone recognized Aoi Ren, and the entire sand ninja canyon erupted. This is unbearable!
This murderer of the Kazekage actually dares to insult us right at our doorstep!
Soon, the message came down from Sunagakure's higher-ups: Kill Aoi Ren at all costs!
"Rumble... rumble..."
The entire canyon echoed with the thunderous sound of footsteps.
Thousands of sand ninja rushed out of Sunagakure, some still in their pajamas, clearly having rushed out without even changing clothes after hearing the news.
They swore to kill this hateful brat, Aoi Ren!
Aoi Ren suspected that if he actually fell into their hands, he would probably be bitten to death.
"Being popular can be a burden too!" Aoi Ren shrugged, threw down a kunai, activated the Flying Thunder God Technique, and instantly flashed back to Might Guy's side.
Upon returning, Aoi Ren saw Uchiha Kagami frozen in place.
"Hey there, buddy?"
After a quick greeting, Aoi Ren turned and ran, shouting as he went, "Run! What are you waiting for?!"
It was then that Uchiha Kagami snapped out of his daze. Thanks to Aoi Ren, a new war was now inevitable.
"Immediately enter battle formation!"
Disregarding everything else, Uchiha Kagami could only follow Aoi Ren, running back.
It wouldn't be long before the Konoha Allied Forces and the remaining strength of Sunagakure would clash violently...
Thinking of this, Uchiha Kagami gritted his teeth. How many more people will lose their loved ones in this battle?
How many more war orphans will there be?
And all this suffering... was caused by that damned Aoi Ren!
"Huh? Where did that guy go?"
Uchiha Kagami's eyes widened in confusion.
At some point, Aoi Ren, who had been leading the charge, had suddenly disappeared...
