Pakura's voice reached everyone present, clear as day.
It was a voice they knew all too well.
The next second, they snapped out of their daze. Rasa was the first to turn and look.
When Rasa saw who stood before him, his face instantly darkened.
How was this possible?!
Pakura was still alive?!
And she had actually come back?!
He had only just declared Pakura a rogue ninja.
Yet barely any time had passed before she returned.
Didn't that make him look like a complete clown?!
Besides, after what he had done...
Rasa had never intended to turn back.
He had planned to use this incident to settle the matter once and for all.
But hardly any time had passed.
Now Pakura was back. If Rasa mishandled this situation, he would be finished.
More importantly, unless he resolved this, Pakura was a ticking time bomb.
And Bai Ye...
If Pakura had returned, did that mean Bai Ye had returned too?
If so, could Sunagakure still stand against Konoha in the war?!
Only one thought remained in Rasa's mind.
Were they supposed to give up fighting just because they couldn't win?!
If they stopped fighting, nothing good would likely follow.
Faced with all this, Rasa suddenly felt as though he could barely breathe.
It seemed he really had been driven into a corner this time.
One wrong move could ruin everything.
For the moment, Rasa genuinely had no idea what to do.
But he quickly gathered himself. What did Pakura know?
Besides, the most important thing was not to stand here dwelling on all these possibilities.
It was to figure out how to deal with Pakura next. That was what mattered most right now.
As far as Rasa was concerned, everything else was irrelevant.
"Pakura, you actually dared to come back!!!"
