Satoshi guided his menand pursuedAsami.The girl was hard to track, especially in urban terrain. The princesswas fast andled the charge, but luckily Asami was still Asami.
They followedthe sound of herexplosions, the purple shade of her mes, the charredcorpsesalong her path.This was definitely her. This was her signature.
His men passed what remainedof the Oto-nin. They dared to oppose her and paid the price.Their blood painted the sand, the street, the walls red. Theirmutted corpses littered the ground, massacred, ughtered, eviscerated.
Satoshi averted his eyes. He ignored the uneasiness in his heart. The little princessdidn’thold back.“Mashiro, do we have n ninja?”
Mashiro nodded. His answer was positive. “We do.”
“How many?”
“Four Hyuga. Seven Yamanaka. Five Nara. Two Aburame.”
“That''s all?” Satoshi frowned. The numbers disappointed him. Eighteen wasn’t much. They needed firepower to survive, first strike capabilities. “Are they capable of shadow and mind maniption?”
Mashiro nodded once again. “I assume so.”
The earth trembled and a column of dust and smokerose on the horizon. Aseries of consecutive detonations followed. The girl loved ying with super heavy ordnance. Her destructive tendenciescared little about coteral damage and civilian casualties.
Satoshi clicked his tongue. “We need to strike and hit hard. We need to pin her down, as we only get a single chance. If we fail, ...”
Heremained silent. Some words were better left unspoken. He had to think positively. They wouldn’t die today.They had a n.“Tell them to be prepared and stun her when I give the signal.We will strike at the right moment.”
“What is this ‘right moment’, Captain?”
Satoshi smiled, maintaininghis facade. “You will know whenthe momentes, but no pressure. Don''t worry and stay calm. If we fail, we are all dead anyway.”
The Yamanaka hesitated. “I understand ...”
Satoshi''s instincts red up. He sensed a massive concentration of chakra ahead of them. Chakra saturated the air. A detonationawaited them.
His eyes closed, andhis world turned whiteuntil the violent shock wavetore him back to reality.The detonationwas fast, urate, powerful, deadly.
Satoski inspected his men. They were still disoriented after getting hit by her lovely sh bang, “Atsutane, Tanosuke, Satsuki, get up. You have a mission.”
“Inform Danzowe are going to engage our target. He shall sendineverything they have.”
“Understood, Captain.”
“Atsusane, can you do me a little favour?” Satoshi shed a smile, the smile of a dead man.“If we bite the dust,tell DanzoI told him so, and that he can go fuck himself. He will have the honourofdealingwith thelittle psychopathic princess.”

Her mes dissipated. The results satisfied Asami. Her katon performed admirably and imed another batch of Oto.nin, but they just kepting. They didn''t learn their lesson. Fresh supply never ceased, and Asami stopped counting. Their deaths didn''t bother her. Their lives were not her concern. Her enemies were numbers, anonymous and without face, destined to be felled by her de.
Asami observed the battlefield and beamed while surrounded by charred bodies, burnt beyond recognition. Her mes had grilled them alive. They thought they could get past her. They thought they could escape. They were wrong.
The remainingOto-nin held their breath. Their eyes stared at her infear, indread. Angst, terror, desperationensnared their hearts.
Asami stepped forwards and their faces paled. Her hand once again reached for herde, her trusted servant.“Who is next. I am waiting.” Three Oto-nin snapped and attacked. The pressure proved too much.
Howdisappointing. They learned nothing.
Her fire finishedthem before they even got close, setting them ame. Their flesh burnt,theOto-ninturned intolifeless husks, killed before the eyes of theirrades.
The Oto-nin red. Many of them had tried, but all had failed. They were sliced, beheaded, mutted, burnt, butchered by the demon in ck. Blood adorned her kimono, and the girl wore her new colours with pride.
Her presenceterrified them. Her smile, her aura, her eyes.
...
...
...
The Oto-nin reconsidered theirloyalty. Theyfeared Orochimaru, but fear alone wasn''t enough topel them to fight.Thedemonwas close,and Orochimaru was far away.
TheOto-nindropped their kunai, their shuriken, their swords, their axes. They dropped their weapons and raised their hands. “We surrender.”
Asami apuded. “Excellent decision, you are smarter than you look.” Chakra filled the area together with the wonderful crackling of zing fire. Her chakra dancedand tension was palpable.
“Sadly,I am not takingprisoners.” Asami waved goodbye.In an instant, her chakra set the very air aze in a giant purple congration, disintegratingthe unarmed Oto-nin alive.
Her hand picked up a scrap of cloth. “That should suffice.” Her de required a little love. Asami polished her sword until her de sparkled in the sunlight. Blood was corrosive, and rust was the archenemy of every good sword.
...
...
...
“Captain.”
“I am listening, Satoshi. What do you want, my friend?” Asami paid little attention to her visitors. Polishing her de was more important.
Satoshi and his men surrounded the area. They were ANBU, Root ANBU, Danzo''s personal guard dogs. They had arrived.
