As Kano and Gumpta journeyed on into the forest, about 15 minutes or so, Kano would have dozed off for about 8 minutes of the journey with Gumpta keep close eye on their surroundings readying himself to wake his partner in the wake of something happening. About 9 minutes into their walk the rain would go from a slight drizzle to a medium showers, enough to wake Kano completely as it felt like small pebbles landing on his body. Kano would feel rather rejuvenated as the feverish feeling and throbbing in his leg had come to a halt as well as his exhaustion as he felt as if he hadn't been through any of the things that ocurred earlier, kinda like it was all just a dream.

Seeing as he had just awoken and Gumpta had taken notice, the once careful eye had become overtaken by conversation taking his watchful eye off of the road ahead for a few minutes. Gumpta would greet Kano and Kano would as well vice versa as they exchanged a few words before something went wrong. Gumpta would have stepped on a trap, a sinkhole to be exact as his body began to plunge rather rapidly. Gumpta instictively would whip his tongue out at the closest tree which was on his right side, which about medium thickness, and pull as hard as he could snapping the tree but giving him enough leverage to unsheath his sword and stick it into the thick mud pulling himself out barely.

In this whole ordeal Kano would jump off of his friends back forward doing a somersalt of sorts forward ahead of the hole spinning forward to his feet. As soon as he caught bearings of his surroundings he would see three masked men, just like the many before these, in front of him swords drawn in each of their hands but something didn't seem right. They weren't drawn in attacking stances rather slight laughter could be heard as they looked forward at the Uzumaki. Kano would look on but then a strike of lightning would spark the semi-dark sky that the rain had been falling from creating a shadow effect that flashed in front of Kano and on to his foes ahead, it was big and resembled a creature he had known all to well not only from the visions but his encounters prior to this one. Knowing that this creature was about to strike Kano would channel his flying thundergod technique and teleport to hte seal he had placed on Gumpta when they first began their contract.

As Kano teleported he would appear on Gumpta's back, about 10 feet behind and to the right of where Kano was standing, once again as the toad had successfully made it to safety, watching the massive serpent move forward towards the 3 standing in front of where Kano once was, as fast and as viciously as the snake was coming Kano had just gotten out in the knick of time as they were still standing there. Given the snakes speed and how far its mouth was open it would not be able to refrain its self from going forward giving the three men little time react more than likely getting eaten instead of Kano had they not taken appropriate measures. It was then that moments before the snake would crash into the other 3 that Kano would notice a bit back from them another man would make his appearance, his crimson locks striking a familiarity with Uzumaki. Kano could not but a finger on exactly what was hinting towards who he was all he knew was he more than likely would be another foe.

Kano would grab 3 kunai from his satchel holding one in his left hand gripped as well as his right keeping the other fastened onto his strap holding his big scroll readying himself to react to their next move.
