"No, let him stay in Otogakure. That was his own choice."
Having witnessed Electric Light Suigetsu's active performance on the battlefield, Mei Terumi had no desire to let him return to Kirigakure. The already half-dead Kirigakure could not withstand his antics.
"Mei Terumi, do you know what that pale red shield around that person was?"
She should have taken the information on the Land of Snow's Chakra Armor. How could someone still make Chakra Armor? And judging by it, it was not very well made—more like a shoddy imitation modeled after something Yoru had created.
"I don't know. It was my first time seeing it too." Thinking of the pale red shield that had appeared on Asakura, Mei Terumi shook her head. It really was her first time seeing it. But when she thought of its design, it felt somewhat familiar.
"Wasn't that shield design seen on Otogakure's ninja before? Only the color was a little different..." Mei Terumi remembered. During the conflict between Otogakure and the Cloud Ninja in the Valley of Hell of the Land of Hot Water, she had seen it on Otogakure ninja. Its design was the same as the shield on Asakura, only the color differed.
"That was a function of Chakra Armor. I think someone copied the Chakra Armor made by Otogakure and sold it to that person named Asakura."
That was the only possibility. She had not expected that someone in the ninja world could bypass the secrecy mechanism Yoru had set up and dismantle Chakra Armor.
"A ninja tool capable of amplifying Chakra—what exactly it is like, you'll find out later."
Naruto held Mei Terumi's hand and gave a mischievous smile. "Wife, it's time for us to get engaged." Looking at frail Naruto, Mei Terumi felt she must have lost her mind
