"We are comrades, and these shinobi cannot compare to that."
Memories of Lupa surface in his mind. He understands now, at least in part. Lupa was willing to sacrifice for them, and he would do the same for any of the Embryon. The thought is almost startling, but he knows that it is true. He is sure that they would do the same for him, and that bond will overpower any force pushed against them. No betrayal will be stronger than that.
"We've learned of betrayal, and will not be unaware of the possibility from now on. We will prepare, and they will have difficulty surprising us."
It's a small comfort that these shinobi strangers know as little about them as they do about the shinobi. They can probably use that lack of knowledge to their advantage, if they're careful not to give too much away. Gale looks out at the ocean, pondering the various ways they could glean more information.
