Honkai Impact 3rd: This is how Obito and Rin used it

Finally, she concluded, "Killer Bee is mentally injured, and Yugito is at a crucial time communicating with the Two-Tails. It seems that we are not at an advantage in terms of top-tier combat power that can determine the situation on the battlefield."

Ai's eye twitched.

According to Mabui's analysis, it's not just that they don't have an advantage, it's that the gap is huge.

If Shingetsu Seiun were to break into the battlefield, Kumogakure would have no one to stop him. His ninjutsu that could steal sight and his large-scale fire-style attacks would be nothing short of a massacre of their own ordinary ninjas.

While he remained silent, Ma Buyi delivered another blow.

"Oh right, I almost forgot." She turned to Samui beside her and asked, "You said that when the Leaf Demon Star killed Moloi, he also displayed a sealing technique, right?"

"...Huh? Oh, right!" Samui snapped out of his daze and hurriedly chimed in, "Yes, I saw it with my own eyes."

"He... the Leaf Demon Star unleashed a golden chain of incredible speed with an extremely wide attack range. Even Lord Molloy, who used all his strength, couldn't escape it. After being subdued, he had no power to resist and was dragged along, stabbed through by a longsword."

As she spoke, she emphasized again, "It was extremely terrifying; Lord Molloy died a horrible death."

Mabu-yi nodded, then turned her gaze to Ai.

"So, Lord Raikage."

Are you sure you want to break the agreement and start another war?

Ai responded with silence.

Remaining silent.

Remaining silent.

Ai erupted.

"hateful!"

"Then what should I do?"

"Do I really have to send three women to Konoha?!"

"Who should I send? You!?"

Chapter 431 Samui's Success

Meeting his gaze, Ma Buyi's eyelids twitched, and then she silently turned her head away.

Of course not.

She gave a soft snort, expressing her dissatisfaction.

After all, she was a clerical worker, only responsible for analysis and deduction; the real decision-making was done by Raikage himself.

Just as the atmosphere reached a stalemate, a weak voice rang out from the audience.

"I...I can go."

It is Samui, of course.

She slowly raised her hand, like a poor student forced to answer a question.

When Ai's resentful and angry gaze fell upon her, she trembled, then mustered her courage and spoke.

"I go!"

Ai frowned.

"You go?"

Samui nodded: "Okay, I'll go."

She explained her reasoning: "I was there at the time, and that guy saw me."

"So I guess... maybe his target was me all along."

Ai was still angry, but Ma Buyi raised an eyebrow.

She felt that what the other person said made some sense.

"Go on."

Mabui's words seemed to encourage Samui, who straightened her already upright chest and began to speak more fluently.

"This is what I think."

"The Leaf Village Demon Star said these words to me at the very end, after he had killed our people."

"So... his main target is me."

"Perhaps it's because I fit his aesthetic preferences in some ways."

As she spoke, Mabuya's gaze involuntarily fell a third.

Samui continued, "Since his target is me, he will not give up if I don't go."

"Instead of waiting for him to get angry again and cause us trouble, we might as well be more decisive and just meet his needs directly."

Mabu-i: "But you said he wanted three people."

"Even if you're willing to go, where are you going to find two other people?"

The woman who could meet the demands of the Leaf Village's Demon Star certainly wouldn't be just any random woman on the street. If the Raikage were to actually collect women according to his requirements, it would inevitably damage his image in Kumogakure.

However, Kumogakure doesn't have a scapegoat like Danzo of Konoha, so it's really difficult to handle.

Faced with her question, Samui hesitated for a moment before replying, "I think expressing our stance is more important than gathering enough people."

"He's already killed seven members of our delegation, and his anger has mostly subsided. If the village could send someone to express a friendly gesture, along with me..."

"The other side probably won't keep pressing the issue."

After hearing what she said, Mabu-i nodded.

She then turned to Ai and said, "I think it's feasible."

Seeing Ai's eyes widen again, she gave the most crucial reason.

"The Leaf Village's Demon Star is currently riding high. He seems to disregard even the Third Hokage."

"Rather than letting him appear on the front lines, it's better to deal with the situation first."

"Given his current relationship with the Hokage, waiting is the best option. Perhaps... he could become the next White Fang of Konoha."

This reason is very valid.

Ai gritted his teeth and gasped for breath, remaining silent.

Seeing this, Mabui knew the other party's attitude.

I'm so angry, but there's no better way.

This is where her role as a subordinate comes in. She didn't press Ai for his decision, but nodded and said, "If there are no problems, I'll make the plan."

"No matter how strong Konoha's Demon Star is, he can't possibly be indifferent to Kumogakure's attitude."

After thinking for a moment, he added.

"Based on the available intelligence, this Leaf Demon Star, although his conduct is average, does not seem to have any excessive fetishes, and his reputation in that area is also quite good."

"There should be no need to worry about Samui's safety."

After saying that, he turned to Samui and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

"I wish you all the best."

Seeing the man in hemp clothing turn and leave, Raikage Ai stood there sulking. Samui rolled his eyes and then quietly left.

Once she reached a secluded spot and made sure no one was watching, she carefully but forcefully waved her hand, letting out a deliberately suppressed cheer.

"Yay!~"

A cheer expressed his joy. After the celebration, Samui quickly composed himself, furtively looking around to make sure no one had noticed before suppressing his excitement.

calm down.

After a while, I'll have to pick myself up and put on another heroic performance of 'going to Konoha alone and serving the demon star'.

……

Shingetsu Seiun, far away in Konoha, was unaware that his reputation in Kumogakure had been damaged.

He was dealing with his friend's concern.

Since the day the agreement was signed, the atmosphere in Konoha has become increasingly oppressive.

How repressed was he? Even Matt Kay noticed something was wrong.

After making several inquiries, he learned that his best friend had a bad relationship with the Hokage. He rushed over and fussed over Shingetsu Seiun, offering words of comfort and reassurance.

"Nebula, don't get so worked up."

"It's nothing serious. The Hokage isn't a petty person."

"Of course, it might be easier if you take the initiative to ease the tension."

"I have a treasured bodysuit here. Take it and give it to the Hokage. Say it's a token of your appreciation. It's breathable and warm, and can protect your cardiovascular system. It's especially good for the elderly."

Looking at the bodysuit silently fluttering in Might Guy's hand, Shingetsu Seiun imagined that scene and refused without hesitation.

"Thank you."

"But Kai, I really don't need it."

If I were to actually send someone a bodysuit like that, it would definitely backfire, it definitely would!

"what?"

"You don't need it? Honestly, this is one of my treasures." Matt Kai's disappointment was palpable, but he quickly cheered up.

"Nebula, if the bodysuit doesn't fit, how about weight belts?"

"I also have weight belts, a specialty of the Land of Earth. It took a lot of effort to get them."

"Take this and give it to the Hokage. Tell him that exercising is especially good for osteoporosis..."

“Kai!” Shenyue Xingyun had to interrupt, “Trust me.”

"The Hokage is not someone who values ​​material things."

"Just like you said, he's not a stingy person."
