I'll Go With You to Save Rin

Guy stood where he was, looking toward Kirigakure.

His gaze was unnaturally calm.

A moment later, he suddenly bent down.

Decisively slinging Kakashi over his shoulder.

He dashed toward Konoha's encampment.

He had no intention whatsoever of pursuing Kirigakure.

He would save Rin.

But not now!

With Black Zetsu's arrangements and interference, Guy knew it would be difficult for him to catch up.

Moreover, he was currently in terrible condition.
