It definitely wasn't because of her status.
It was more because of Ōtsutsuki Koto's abilities.
And now, they had turned their attention to him.
They must have valued his abilities as well.
However, Kitahara Kaede did not believe they had such strength.
"Let's see if you can withstand this hurricane first."
Kitahara Kaede's lips curled upward, brimming with confidence.
However, that confidence was soon brutally shattered.
