Zango only watched the female as the rain kept beating down on them, hearing each word she said as it only made his right eye twitch due to how she was answering already. Seeing how she was walking around him into a circle, he only let his head follow her when she was on the side of him or in front of him, holding a face of displeasure as he listened. Hearing how she said that he should be the one introducing himself, he only then took a step to the side as he avoided her shoulder check and watched her walk further into the woods but then stop. As he saw the paper flake from her arm, his brow only raised a bit as he then shrugged it off and began to turn around from where he walked in at. Beginning to walk away from the entire scene, he felt no reason she'd be seen as a threat and if anything, he'd kill her in an instant as well as many other shinobi of the leaf. He knew what she looked like and that she could change her appearance when she wanted however, nothing could force him to forget that she used paper. Still walking from the scene, he heard her voice as he then only turned to face her after she said that she didn't wanna hurt him. Keeping the cranky face on for a moment, a smirk only crossed his lips as he said "That's too bad. Guess you get to live then." Turning back to where he was heading, he then ran his earth chakra back into all sections of his body, letting him use Light-Weight Rock Technique, making his weight less and his steps faster without even trying.

Thinking for only a moment, he thought "Hope mom or dad isn't there...or uncle." Thinking on it, he kept walking and tried to think of everyone he saw in the crowd but he couldn't see anybody that looked familiar of being close to him but it didn't stop him from taking off into a fast sprint back to the courtyard however, on his way there after a slight amount of time due to his speed, he saw the mob and Godric, as well as the Hokage at the memorial as he stopped in place and only looked to everyone as he walked up to the crowd and began to push through. He came just in time to hear the ending of what Godric had to say which struck him “IF NONE OF YOU CONTINUE TO STAND THEN YOU LET THOSE WHO DIED FALL FOR NOTHING. “ Directly after hearing it, he only yelled out from the chatter of the crowd "THERE IS NO REASON TO EVER BACK DOWN. A SHINOBI SHOULD ALWAYS STAND AND THE ONES WHO HAVE DIED DIDN'T DIE FOR NOTHING, THEY DIED FOR THEIR VILLAGE, WHAT THEY THOUGHT AS HOME." He stopped for a second as he then pushed through the crowd more and said loudly but not in the same tone as before "I, Zango Uzumaki, pledge to give my life for this village and I will not fall for nothing, I will only fall if it means that every enemy I see is going with me." Looking to everyone around him "Your loss is saddening however, we won't get anywhere with you all crying. Do something about it if you're that mad or sad about your loss." Zango only stood there as he looked directly to Godric. He was the man that Zango Uzumaki looked up to from the tales he heard about during his time in the academy. A huge inspiration to Zango's entire reasoning of being a shinobi and only to what he said to everyone else, forced Zango to speak out. He was a cranky asshole however, he had heart and guts. If it came to his family, clan or Konoha, he'd be standing there with the rest of anybody who wished to give up their lives to strive for a better day. Whether he was looked down upon for how he answered out or raised up, it didn't stop the one thought he wanted to become true, which was to become a strong shinobi, to protect the very village he stood in now and destroy any of which that stood in his way of such a duty.
