An Unexpected Execution and Escape

"Hahaha..." Nawaki burst out laughing again. "Wonderful! Wonderful! This performance really didn't disappoint me! I never expected the Sand Ninja higher-ups to be so... pragmatic!

Nawaki, who had looked relaxed moments ago, suddenly changed expression and shouted, "Not good! Stop him!"

Nawaki simultaneously formed hand seals with both hands
