Despite Hidan's displeasure, Tobi stayed.
"Tobi, go play somewhere else. Once I chop this guy's rat head off, I'll come find you."
"But Senior Shinji..."
Tobi feigned reluctance.
"It's fine. If that bastard asks, just pin it on me."
Tobi's eye lit up. "I can pin anything on you, Senior Hidan? Great!"
"Of course not! Are you trying to screw me over again?!"
"Huh? I can't? Then forget it. I'll just be good and stay here to help."
Tobi clasped both hands behind his head, looking every bit like he was holding out for a better deal.
Dark lines instantly crossed Hidan's face. Through gritted teeth, he said, "Fine, do whatever you want. Just remember to stay far away and keep out of it."
"Yay, deal!"
"I'll tell Senior Shinji in a minute..."
"Yammering on and on! Die!"
The ignored Rat-Headed Man actually attacked first, moving so fast that he gave Tobi quite a fright.
"Waaah! My head's going to get bitten off!"
Tobi ducked and scurried away with his hands over his head, and the Rat-Headed Man really did fly right over him, his terrifying fangs snapping at empty air.
Hidan was furious. This guy wasn't taking him seriously at all!
He immediately charged over and swung the Bloody Triple-Bladed Scythe at the Rat-Headed Man with all his might!
Although the Rat-Headed Man blocked with his claws, a weapon with such a strange shape was all but impossible to guard against.
The longest blade instantly shaved off the stiff hair on the Rat-Headed Man's head, giving him a bald crown surrounded by a ring of hair!
Having swiftly retreated to a safe distance, the Rat-Headed Man touched his bare crown. His eyes didn't just turn red-they became bloodshot.
"I'll eat you alive!"
