Seeing the two guys opposite doing as he asked, to ensure his safety even more, he made additional demands.
"Throw the Tachi on your waist and all the weapons on your body in front of me, and your buddy too!"
"No problem! Satoshi! Do as he says!"
"Got it!"
While talking to Satoshi, he threw his Tachi, the Ninja Tool Pouch on his back, and even the Kunai tied to his leg, all in front of the other guy.
"Alright! We've done as you asked! Shouldn't you release us a bit?"
Seeing the two ninjas opposite had thrown their weapons in front of him as he demanded, he thought about the current situation and decided it was necessary to maintain some cooperation with them.
Loosening his grip, he relaxed the dagger on Uchiha Honō's neck and said, "You two, and all these women, get into that house. And close the doors and windows, no looking outside!"
"I warn you, do as I say! Otherwise, I can't guarantee the safety of this little girl!"
He had already planned that once they entered the house, he would take the little girl and escape through the back route he had prepared when building the hideout, to get away from this dangerous place.

He knew that if he didn't give them some assurance, they wouldn't let him have his way.
For a moment, he hesitated!
Both sides, the hostage-taker and Fuyu Shirou's group, who were hesitant to act, fell into silence.
Just as the atmosphere in the scene slowly turned silent and calm, something unexpected happened.
A bright blade of light flashed behind the nameless Bandit Leader.
This all began when Honō and Satoshi were talking.
At that time, Fuyu Shirou, attracted by their voices, turned his head curiously to look at his companions, wondering what new developments they had.
Fuyu Shirou, who was relatively relaxed at the time, never expected that this one glance would allow him to witness the entire process of Honō being taken hostage by the Bandit Leader.
Fuyu Shirou was only slightly stunned for a moment before he immediately reacted, intending to use the Body Flicker Technique to save her.
But that brief moment of hesitation allowed the Bandit Leader to take Honō hostage, and Fuyu Shirou missed the best opportunity to save her.
Even as a穿越者 (穿越者 translates to
