Konan nodded. "Explosive Ninja, is it? I'll remember you. But if this is all you're capable of, you're still no match for me. Why don't you... join our organization? I'm very interested in you."
If you can't beat them, join them, huh? Heh, I'll find your weakness!
Taking down Konan wouldn't be easy.
Retsuo didn't dare underestimate Konan. In the Original Timeline, she was the ninja who had achieved the feat of "solo-killing Obito." If she hadn't been unaware that the Uchiha possessed the absurd life-saving technique Izanagi, it would have been the end of the story.
Even Obito's Genjutsu had been unable to do anything to her, which showed just how strict her defenses against Genjutsu were.
Fortunately, Konan at this point couldn't possibly be as powerful as she would become later. Otherwise, Retsuo would have chosen to join immediately!
For now, he naturally remained noncommittal. "What kind of organization is yours? And who are you?"
"You want to know my name? Naturally, I'll tell you after you join." Konan's expression remained blank. "But judging from the look of you, you intend to refuse. What a pity. You've already aroused my curiosity."
As she spoke, she formed hand seals and created a Paper Clone.
The clone pointed at the ground and asked leisurely, "The Invisible Explosive Tags just now should have been placed while you were retreating. What will you do if I walk along this path now?"
"So you're the only one who can make clones?"
Retsuo also formed hand seals, then tossed out several Kunai. "Genjutsu—Shuriken Transformation Technique!"
Konan was astonished—not because the Kunai transformed into Baibian Huashan one after another, but because the group of Baibian Huashan were scattered throughout the cave, each one flinging its arms in all directions with extremely comical movements.
Wait, flinging
