Kurotsuchi hurriedly turned around. Standing behind her were Konan in casual clothes and Nagato, possessed by Black Zetsu.
Konan's expression was cold, while Black Zetsu wore a faintly sinister smile. Neither of them looked like they meant well. Kurotsuchi frowned slightly, her body tensing.
"Who are you people?"
Black Zetsu glanced at the forehead protector on Kurotsuchi's head and said,
"Someone from Iwagakure? The Tsuchikage actually brought a little girl like you along. You must hold quite a high position in Iwagakure."
Konan spoke at that moment.
"She should be Kurotsuchi, the granddaughter of Ōnoki, the Tsuchikage."
Hearing this, Black Zetsu pinched his chin and nodded, muttering to himself,
"No wonder..."
Seeing Black Zetsu manipulate Nagato's body into making unfamiliar movements, Konan felt a wave of disgust. She spoke impatiently.
"Just knock her out. Don't create unnecessary trouble at a time like this."
Hearing their conversation, Kurotsuchi's heart tightened, and anger rose within her as well. They were looking down on her.
Though she was young, she was one of Iwagakure's most outstanding genius ninja. She was not some useless girl who only relied on her grandfather the Tsuchikage's reputation.
Just as Black Zetsu raised his eyes to look at Kurotsuchi again, her long, slender legs suddenly burst forth with force. In a flash, she appeared before Black Zetsu.
Kurotsuchi swept her leg through the air, kicking viciously at Black Zetsu's head. From her perspective, Black Zetsu seemed not to have reacted yet, that smile she found so repulsive still on his face.
But the next second, Black Zetsu seized her ankle and flung her hard against the wall behind him.
To avoid causing too much of a disturbance, Black Zetsu had not used his full strength. Otherwise, the power enhanced by the Asura Path alone would have been enough
