---------------------------------------------------------------------
In the midst of a group of sand ninjas wreaking havoc in the town!
On the outskirts of the town.
Under a sky filled with fine drizzle.
A young man concealed in a black robe raised his head slightly!
There was no expression on his face, as cold as ice!
A pair of pale pupils suddenly came into view!
But when he saw the smoke and the cries of people in the town!
His brow furrowed suddenly!
Not good!!
"Swoosh!"
His figure disappeared on the spot!
At the same time!
Inside a plain house in the town!
"Ha...huff... Who...who are you?"
The old woman, with a face full of wrinkles, leaned against the wall, gasping for breath, looking at the intruders who had broken in.
Seeing the old woman inside, the sand ninja in charge of the extermination operation frowned slightly, but his eyes showed no mercy.
Ninjas always prioritize the execution of their missions above all else!
Having chosen to become a ninja, one should abandon all feelings of mercy and become a killing machine solely dedicated to the task.
"Are there other people in the house? Bring them out; we won't harm civilians."
The sand ninja said in a cold, emotionless voice.
Hearing his words, the old woman's eyes brightened, but suddenly, she seemed to remember something and shook her head weakly, her voice trembling.
"No... there's no one else in this house. Only I am left..."
The sand ninja looked coldly at the old woman and said indifferently.
"Is that so..."
Then he turned and walked out.
The old woman, with a face full of wrinkles, looked at the sand ninja's departure with a hopeful expression.
Just at that moment!
"Swoosh!"
The sand ninja with his back to the old woman suddenly released a kunai from his hand!
The old woman's face instantly turned pale!
She looked weakly at the kunai that flew towards her in an instant, her mind filled with thoughts.
This is for the best...
Konan... Grandma probably won't be able to be with you anymore... Grandma has to go with Grandpa...
In the future... I must live on my own...
Just as the old woman closed her eyes, her face full of wrinkles, and prepared to welcome the moment of death.
"Boom!"
With a loud noise!
One side of the house was smashed open!
Smoke and dust instantly filled the entire room!
Hearing this loud noise!
The sand ninja outside the house suddenly turned around!
He looked at the house, which was now shrouded in smoke and dust, with a vigilant expression.
And the old woman stared wide-eyed, looking at the figure in a black robe that appeared in front of her, her wrinkled face filled with astonishment.
The figure gently removed the black robe from his head, turned his head slightly, and although his face showed no expression, he said in a soft voice.
"Are you alright?"
Seeing his profile, the old woman's expression shook, and she said with a trembling voice.
"You... you are from back then!"
The newcomer turned his head slightly and, with a pair of pale eyes surrounded by bulging veins, looked at the figure curled up in the closet.
Seeing the figure in the closet, he gradually let go of his guard and said softly.
"Let's explain later; I'll take care of these guys first."
As soon as he finished speaking!
"Swoosh!"
His figure disappeared from the spot!
But the sand ninja, who was on high alert, suddenly widened his eyes!
He looked at the young man who appeared in front of him in disbelief!
"Swoosh!"
After realizing what was happening, he had a cold look in his eyes, and he immediately drew a fan from his hand and swung it towards the young man in front of him!
However, before he could complete his move!
"You guys are really despicable..."
With a cold and low murmur,
A slender palm instantly covered his chest.
"Go to hell properly!"
"Secret Art. Elephant Rend!"
Only to see that strange chakra instantly surge into the sand ninja's body from the slender palm.
The expression on the sand ninja's face froze instantly!
"Bang!"
His body instantly exploded, turning into a cloud of blood mist!
Just at this moment!
Several other sand ninjas from another direction rushed over!
They leaped into the air, some manipulating puppets, others wielding giant fans!
The young man on the field frowned!
He forcefully extended both palms!
His pale eyes suddenly locked onto the sand ninjas in the sky releasing various ninjutsu!
His body instantly started rotating, gathering a strange blue chakra in his hands!
Under the effect of the Byakugan, his body suddenly stopped!
His palms slammed towards the sand ninjas in the sky!
"Eight Trigrams. Empty Wall Palm!"
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"...
The air resounded with intense sonic booms!
"Ah! What is this!! Ah!"
"What! What's inside me!!"
"Ah!!"
The sand ninjas fell from the sky, each of them howling in fear and agony, their expressions incredibly painful!
Before long, crimson blood began to flow from their eyes, ears, noses, and mouths.
The scene was extremely tragic!
The old woman remained in the house, her face full of wrinkles, watching the actions of the young man on the field in utter horror.
She leaned against the wall, her face pale, and even the bloodstains on her wrinkled cheeks were not wiped away. Her weathered and hazy eyes were filled with complexity.
"Plop!" "Plop!"....
The young man slowly walked to the closet, gently opening the small door.
What came into view was Konan, curled up in the closet with tear streaks on her face.
She had her eyes closed, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, sobbing quietly. Her sobs were almost soundless, and her small hands tightly clutched her grandmother's handbag.
When she heard the sound of the closet door opening, she suddenly opened her eyes, her face filled with fear as she looked at the young man!
Her big, watery, rabbit-like red eyes, upon seeing the young man's face, were suddenly filled with disbelief as she trembled and whispered softly.
"Saki... Saki!"
Seeing Saki, who had saved her before, she couldn't hide her emotions any longer.
Her small hands tightly held onto Saki!
She burst into tears!
"Wuwa!! Saki... Saki , Grandma... Grandma... Grandma she... Wuwa!!!"
Saki, who was suddenly embraced, was taken aback, and when he looked at Konan, who was crying as delicately as a small animal, his originally expressionless face showed a hint of tenderness.
His hand slowly lifted, somewhat hesitantly, but in the end, he gently placed it on Konan's soft blue hair, and he rubbed it lightly, his voice soft.
"It's okay, little one, your grandmother is still alive."
Hearing Saki's words, Konan suddenly froze, and she lifted her head slightly, her eyes watery as she looked at Saki. Her small mouth pouted, and she wiped her tears from time to time.
And at this moment.
The old woman beside her also staggered over.
With red-rimmed eyes, she watched the crying Konan, her face full of wrinkles revealing a kind and excited smile, her voice trembling.
"Good girl, Grandma... Grandma is here, don't cry..."
Konan saw her completely unharmed grandmother, and her tears flowed again!
She ran out of the closet and tightly hugged her grandmother, wailing loudly.
"Wuwa!! Grandma... Grandma... don't leave Konan... Wuwa..."
The old woman also teared up, her twig-like hands gently rubbing Konan's hair.
As Saki quietly watched this scene, his eyes were filled with complexity.
Indeed...
In this world, there are still incredibly precious things...
You're right, Captain Aizen... what we need to protect are these precious things...
Those who seek to destroy them... I will annihilate them all...
Thinking this, he looked outside with his pale pupils!
His eyes were filled with a cold and determined killing intent!
