"Liumu, are you confident?"
At the mountain summit.
Squads of Konoha ninja covered the entire mountainside.
Facing the nine enormous tailed beasts from the original story standing amid roaring winds, their expressions were exceptionally grave.

They intended to take on the entire Shinobi Alliance with just the two of them.
Although Liumu and the others had never learned the Masked Man's identity, they had finally become quite familiar with his skills over all this time.

Liumu smiled faintly,
