Hyuga Akira raised his hand. Fierce wind began spinning in his palm, taking an irregular form as it became a blue-green ball of wind.
It resembled a Rasengan, but a Rasengan was actually pure chakra. Adding a wind attribute would turn it into Wind Release: Rasenshuriken.
The sphere in Hyuga Akira's hand, however, was simply a ball of wind.
This was his complete control over Wind Release.
"This wind ball of mine is enough to shred that corpse," Hyuga Akira said softly. "Now it's time for the classic choice between two options."
"I admit I'm no match for you. If we really fought to the death, I would certainly die at your hands."
Of course, it would be another matter if Hyuga Akira went all out. Without going all out, his chances of winning were only thirty percent.
"I value my life, too, and the mission the village gave me was to kill the traitor and prevent information from leaking."
He looked at the corpse not far from Hatake Sakumo. "So, either you leave with your comrades, and I complete my mission and won't attack again-after all, I don't want to fight you to the death, either."
"Or you leave with your mission objective, I kill your two comrades, and we turn around and run. After all, considering we ran into Konoha's White Fang, I believe the Kazekage wouldn't blame me too much."
"So, Lord White Fang, make your choice." Hyuga Akira's smile grew even brighter. The Root members beside him kept feeling that it was brighter than his usual smile.
They had given nothing away this time, either. Sunagakure specialized in Wind Release to begin with, and everyone's stock of ninjutsu of the five attributes was more or less the same.
At this point, Hatake Sakumo definitely wouldn't be
