Aogetsu Hyuga looked perfectly calm.

After years of chasing women across the Shinobi World, he had run into situations like this before.

He took out a Lollipop and popped it into his mouth.

"I won't allow it!" a woman's voice rang out from nearby.

Everyone turned to look. The newcomer stormed toward them, her long Coffee-Colored hair falling over her eyes.
