The Third Kazekage saw it that way too.
Though he knew Kaguya and Konan were not turning on each other, it still left him uneasy. He could not resist a jab. "Lord Hokage, it seems the ninja of Konoha don't get along very well."
"Really? Konan and Pakura seem to get along just fine. Why don't we have Pakura stay in Konoha?" Hiruzen Sarutobi replied with a grin, utterly unfazed.
Of course, Hiruzen Sarutobi only said that because he knew Konan and Kaguya could not possibly be fighting among themselves. Otherwise, he would have looked far less pleased.
The Third Kazekage wisely shut his mouth.
He had not expected Hiruzen Sarutobi to be so shameless that he would even set his sights on Pakura.
Getting the better of Hiruzen Sarutobi in a war of words was nearly impossible. The man's skin was simply too thick.
As the crowd buzzed with speculation, Pakura and Konan struck at the same time.
A Fireball appeared in Pakura's hand, more terrifying than any she had produced before.
Fierce flames blazed across its surface.
The fire roared, casting a red glow as tongues of flame writhed like golden snakes.
The raging flames lit up half the sky.
Even the moisture in the air began to vanish.
It was a terrifying move, one that drew on every ounce of Pakura's strength.
Pakura had staked the entire match on this one attack!
In truth, the fighting had not been easy for Pakura. First she had faced Sara, then Juzo Biwa.
She had been given time to rest between the two fights, but they had still taken a great deal out of her.
If she kept fighting, she would not last much longer. Better to unleash her strongest move all at once and let it shine as brightly
