Kakashi's pupils suddenly contracted.
He could not imagine that, at a moment when everyone was scattering in panic and doing everything they could to get away from the battlefield, someone would dare to enter it alone and face thousands upon thousands of enemies!
The Kirigakure shinobi beside Karatachi Yagura were equally shocked by the sight.
Forget the ordinary Kirigakure shinobi—even Mei Terumi's lovely face was filled with surprise. Only Karatachi Yagura remained calm, because he firmly believed that the organization would never stand by and watch Kirigakure fall.
Unlike the others, Ao, with his Byakugan, was focused on the fat figure darting through the air with agility utterly at odds with its build. He said in astonishment, "Th-that's the Second Hokage's Forbidden Technique, Steaming Danger Tyranny's Water-Oil Clone!?"
In an instant, every Kirigakure shinobi's gaze focused on that fat figure.
Before this, they had already sensed that the fat figure flying around in the sky and continuously slaughtering White Zetsu clones possessed exactly the same chakra as the figure walking out of the mist.
Some experienced Kirigakure shinobi had thus concluded that the fat figure was something like a Shadow Clone. Yet no one had expected it to be a Water-Oil Clone created by the Second Hokage's famous Forbidden Technique, Steaming Danger Tyranny!
On Akatsuki's side.
Biwa Jūzō, carrying the Kubikiribōchō over his shoulder, frowned. "At a time like this, someone still came to throw their life away?"
Kisame laughed. "There shouldn't be idiots like that left in Kirigakure, right?"
After making out the figure slowly approaching through the thin mist, Ryu, who possessed the Red Eye, turned grave. "Not good. It's a God Organization member. It seems... it seems to be the God Organization's River Lord!"
Lotus grinned viciously. "River Lord?! He's alone? Then there's nothing to fear!"
