"What impressive swordsmanship. No wonder a brat like you made it into the ANBU!"
The bandit leader tossed aside his broken kunai. He had no intention of fighting Lin Guang and the others one-on-one.
"Tweet!"
Putting his index finger and thumb together in his mouth, the bandit leader let out a piercing whistle.
"What's going on?"
"The boss is calling us, idiot!"
"Then what are we waiting for? Get over there!"
At once, a dozen or so bandits headed over.
"Kenza, you and Jō handle those small fry. I'll take on their leader!"
Soon, the three of them were surrounded. Lin Guang scanned their surroundings, taking in the armed bandits itching for a fight.
"Boss, what's the deal with these three brats?"
One of the bandits asked.

The bandit leader spoke in a low voice.
The atmosphere instantly grew tense.
"Then what are we waiting for? Kill them!"
A scar-faced man waved his cleaver as he spoke to the bandit leader.
"They're no weaklings. They even killed four of my guards, so I called you here to deal with them together."
The bandit leader's words brought the scum back to their senses. As bandits, they might not pay much attention to details, but that did not mean they were all idiots.
"Jō, take this kunai. I probably won't need a weapon when I fight their leader."
Lin Guang handed the kunai to Hyūga Jō.
"All of you, attack together! Don't give them a chance!"
The bandit leader immediately gave the order.
There were now twenty bandits present. Satō Maji and Hyūga Jō would each have to take on ten!
"Die, ANBU brats!"
Cruel expressions spread across the bandits' faces. It was not as though
