During the battle, a masked figure appeared, clearly leading the attackers. The figure's presence was commanding, and their skill in combat was unparalleled. Himanshu and Divyansh fought their way through the chaos to confront this new threat.
The masked leader revealed himself as none other than Kabuto Yakushi. His demeanor was cold and calculating, and he spoke with a chilling certainty. "I see you've come to join the party. The Kage's Shadows have been useful allies, but now it's time for a more direct approach."
Divyansh's eyes widened in disbelief. "Kabuto? Why are you doing this?"
Kabuto smirked. "The world is changing, and so must we. The Kage's Shadows offered an opportunity to reshape the balance of power, and I've decided to align myself with them. Your village will serve as an example of the new order."
The revelation struck the brothers deeply. Kabuto's betrayal was a harsh reminder that their enemies were more insidious and interconnected than they had realized. Determined to protect their home, they redoubled their efforts, focusing on repelling the attackers and safeguarding the village.
