Rin Was Taken?!

"Samui..."

Guy narrowed his eyes.

He had recognized her the moment she appeared.

There weren't many female ninja in Kumogakure, and only a handful were beautiful.

Yugito Nii was one.

Samui was another.

She was a little older than the rest of them, looking seventeen or eighteen now.

At her age, she's probably already as strong as a jōnin!

Guy didn't dare underestimate her.

His battle with the Two-Tails had taken a severe toll on him.

Even opening the Eight Inner Gates again would be extremely difficult.

If they fought now, there was no telling who would win.

He was using every second he had, letting Katsuyu on his neck heal his exhaustion and hidden injuries.

Samui quickly checked Yugito Nii's injuries.

"Thank goodness. She's alive..."

Clearly, she knew about the formidable recovery a Jinchuriki gained from a Tailed Beast.

Samui raised her head and looked at Guy, who hadn't moved.

Deep wariness showed on her face.

She had been there the whole time.

She and Yugito Nii had been guarding Thundercloud Gorge together.

But during Guy and Yugito Nii's terrifying battle just now,

she had been unable to intervene!

If she had stepped into a battle on that level,

even a glancing blow from its shockwaves might have killed her!

What a terrifying guy...

Is he really a medical ninja?

She lifted Yugito Nii and slowly backed toward Thundercloud Gorge.

She retreated one cautious step at a time.

Her eyes never left Guy.

Guy tensed slightly, but soon abandoned any thought of attacking.

Even setting aside whether he could beat Samui,

Black Zetsu's appearance had already set every alarm bell in his head ringing!

He absolutely could not
