The sound of swords being drawn and kunai being swung rang out.
Everyone hurriedly drew their weapons.
But before they could attack the culprit behind this theft, Stealing Dust with the Wind—Rin Setsu'a—
Their vision blurred.
Rin Setsu'a had already rushed to the person nearest him.
He held a tobacco pipe in one hand and lightly brushed the other across it.
The weapon in that person's hand vanished without a trace.

When the shooting stars solidified, dozens of figures in identical attire appeared.
"The Genki Sect is handling business. All unrelated parties, leave immediately!"
The vicious masked faces shouted.
Every one of them wore the same uniform, and even
