Pakura and Yamanaka Tohru had crossed paths when he intercepted the Sand Shinobi supply convoy. He had a good idea of Pakura's strength, but he didn't know the big man fighting alongside her. Still, anyone who could fight side by side with Pakura had to be at least a Quasi-Kage.
Facing two Quasi-Kage, Yamanaka Tohru didn't dare let his guard down for even a moment. He used the Summoning Technique to call Gamahiro.
"Sarura, Yamanaka Tohru's Ice Release is strange. Be careful." Seeing Tohru summon Gamahiro, Pakura recalled how Gamahiro's Water Release had worked with Tohru's Ice Release that day.
As a bodyguard to the Third Kazekage, Sarura had great confidence in his own strength. Most of his techniques had been taught to him by the Third Kazekage, so he paid little heed to Pakura's warning.

"[Iron Sand Hammer]!" Sarura made the first move, gathering Iron Sand into a huge hammer and bringing it down on Yamanaka Tohru.
Yamanaka Tohru unleashed Ice Lightning Mode and dodged Sarura's sudden strike with Lightning Body Flicker.
"Magnet Release! Aside from the Third Kazekage and Fourth Kazekage, there's someone else among the Sand Shinobi who can use Magnet Release?" Yamanaka Tohru said, surprised.
"I'm the Third Kazekage's bodyguard. Is it really so strange that I can use Magnet Release?"
Sarura's words made Yamanaka Tohru take him even more seriously. The Third Kazekage's bodyguard had to be stronger than an ordinary Quasi-Kage.
In terms of strength, the Third Kazekage should have been about equal to the Third Tsuchikage, Ōnoki. After all, he was recognized by every ninja village as the strongest Kazekage. Yet somehow, he had fallen to Sasori of the Red Sands.
