Who was Ebizo?
He was Sunagakure's commander-in-chief and its most respected leader.
Who was Rasa?
He was Sunagakure's Kazekage, the man who held the most power in the village.
And now Uchiha Yin wanted them to hand over both their commander-in-chief and their Kazekage?!
Where did he get the nerve?!
Even if Konoha's forces had pursued them here, they probably wouldn't have made such an outrageous demand.
Fury showed on the Sand Ninja's faces. Every one of them—no, their entire force—felt insulted.
No, no. We must have heard him wrong. Uchiha Yin couldn't possibly be arrogant enough to say that.
But Uchiha Yin's expression remained calm.
That was right. Uchiha Yin had come for one simple reason: to deal with Rasa and Ebizo.
Originally, he had considered wiping out every Sand Ninja there.
But on second thought, that would probably upset Karura and Pakura, so he let the idea go.
Even if Karura or Pakura became Kazekage afterward, she would have no one left to command. That wouldn't do.
Besides, wiping out the entire Sand Ninja force would have far too great an impact. It would be too much trouble.
If the Sand Ninja knew he had originally intended to kill them all and had spared them only because he didn't want to upset the women he loved, they would probably cough up blood from sheer anger.
Do the lives of everyone in Sunagakure depend entirely on Uchiha Yin's whims?
Are the lives of all these Sand Ninja worth less than Pakura's and Karura's?
Yes.
That was exactly how Uchiha Yin saw it.
The Sand Ninja ranks stirred with unrest, but no one made a move.
Seeing that his words seemed to have stunned them into inaction, Uchiha Yin frowned.
"Did you not understand me? Leave Rasa and Ebizo here.
