Might Guy!

A thunderous boom came from the distance. Hearing it, the four members of Guy's team stopped at the same time.

"What was that huge commotion?" Tenten crouched on a tree branch and looked at Neji in confusion.

"Byakugan!" Neji activated his Byakugan with a grave expression. His gaze pierced through the forest and hills, reaching the source of the blast. A moment later, he said solemnly, "The village is under attack!"

"What? Then let's hurry back!" Lee's expression changed, and he immediately prepared to pick up speed.

"Wait!" Neji suddenly leaped in front of Tenten and shouted, "Enemy attack!" The moment he spoke, he used Eight Trigrams: Palm Rotation. The next second, nearly a hundred paper spears fell from the sky, stabbing toward the four of them.

"Whoa!" Guy and Lee instantly stood back-to-back. Each pulled out a pair of nunchaku and swung them with fierce force, smashing every paper spear apart.

"Gentle Fist · Eight Trigrams Empty Palm!" Neji had already spotted Konan. Once the paper spear assault ended, he raised his hand and fired a Chakra shockwave. To his surprise, Konan's body scattered apart, becoming a mass of fluttering white paper that swept toward Neji, while the Chakra shockwave passed straight through her body.

"What?!" Neji was startled and hurriedly leaped backward. Tenten behind him had long been prepared. The instant Neji moved aside, she unsealed a scroll. Kunai tied with Explosive Tags shot toward Konan, filling the sky. "Tool Manipulation · Flying Blade Explosive Tag!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of explosions erupted, sending dust billowing into the air and blocking everyone's vision. Guy and Lee both returned to Tenten's side. Lee stared warily ahead and asked, "Neji, did we get her?"

"No. It's a barrier." With his Byakugan active, Neji saw a barrier suddenly appear before
