"Kotarou, Muramasa, keep Danzō occupied."
"Musashi and I will take care of the nuisances!"
Sakumura glanced at Caster Limbo, who had somehow already moved atop the castle tower, and snorted.
"First, we save our own people. Then, we kill that bastard."

"So fast—!"
Musashi barely blocked Danzō's attack and gritted her teeth.
