"Aaah-!"
As Luo Yan screamed, the Gold Dust filling the sky went completely out of control and rained down into the sea.
Chiyo and Ebizo, who had been flying on the Gold Dust, lost their "Gold Dust clouds" too, but...
The siblings were ready!
As the Gold Dust clouds fell, both deployed some sort of gliding puppet mechanism. Although it appeared incapable of powered flight, it could glide through the air.
Akaseki recognized the Sky Ninja Village's style in its design...
Akaseki guessed that when Luo Yan and the others had approached the Sky Ninja Village about a partnership, they had obtained some Glider designs, even though the Uchiha Clan had ruined the deal.
For Sunagakure, renowned for its Puppet Technique, copying those designs-or developing puppets with similar functions-was hardly difficult.
However, Sunagakure had no Sky City to provide an initial altitude, so Gliders were of limited use and could only be deployed in certain terrain.
Now, with the Gold Dust clouds providing that initial altitude, they could use them after all, but...
After recovering from the shock of "Big Sis Nanashi's" attack, Akaseki noticed that she made no further move and even seemed ready to stop. He immediately reacted and chased the two himself.
Seeing Luo Yan killed just like that had terrified Chiyo and her brother. Neither dared linger, and even when Akaseki gave chase, they did not dare stop to face him. Although the Uchiha girl had said she "wouldn't act for the Uchiha," they now considered that part of her game! In their eyes, if Akaseki held them up, was there any chance that terrifying Uchiha girl would stay out of it?
Seeing Akaseki turn the tables and chase them, Chiyo was furious, but could only lament inwardly...
"Sister, split up!" Ebizo said through gritted teeth.
