Naruto: I'm in Konoha, my name is Uzumaki Menma

Chapter 226 Who gave you permission to... touch my people?

The declaration was simple, yet it carried a chilling and oppressive force.

Summer's pupils contracted slightly; she had only ever seen this kind of oppressive feeling from Lord Shura and Lord Guang.

But compared to the two adults, the person in front of him had a more arrogant and condescending attitude.

She suppressed her discomfort, channeling chakra into the mark on the back of her right hand to transmit information, while issuing another warning: "Leave the Land of Stars immediately! Or tell us your true purpose! Otherwise, we will arrest you according to the Land of Stars' security laws!"

"Capture...a god?" Pain's voice was completely flat, as if he had heard something utterly ridiculous yet utterly insignificant.

No further explanation is needed.

Almost the instant the Heavenly Dao finished speaking, the most muscular man on the side, with a large bald head but obvious mechanical modifications, the Asura Path Pain, suddenly moved!
His movements were less of a charge and more like a barrage of cannonballs!
A small crater exploded beneath his feet, and with terrifying strength, he charged straight toward the four of them. He threw a punch, and the air exploded with a shrill sound!
"Peacock's Wonderful Method: Tiger!"

Summer reacted extremely quickly, her hands rapidly forming hand seals, and powerful purple chakra surged forth instantly, forming a ferocious, roaring chakra tiger in front of her, fiercely meeting the Asura Path's iron fist!

boom--!
The violent collision of chakra erupted with a dull thud.

Purple chakra fragments scattered everywhere. Summer Peacock Myobo was violently shaken by this punch, and she herself staggered back several steps before barely managing to neutralize the terrifying force, with a trace of blood spilling from the corner of her mouth.

"Teacher!" Chino exclaimed.

"Such powerful strength..." Xia Ri was shocked. Her Peacock Technique was known for its combination of offense and defense, and it was almost broken by the opponent in one blow!

"Damn it!" Morishita Toshito roared, and together with Murahashi Hazuki, they attacked from both sides at the same time, with kunai and shuriken aimed straight at the seemingly clumsy body of the Asura Path.

However, their attacks only made a clanging sound when they landed on the Asura Path, without even leaving a scratch.

Shura Path didn't even pay attention to them. His other arm suddenly transformed, launching several missiles glowing with chakra, which locked onto Xia Ri!

"Watch out!" Xia Ri dodged quickly, the missile grazing her body and blasting several charred craters in the open ground behind her.

"Don't hurt Natsumi-sensei!" Chino's Blood Dragon Eyes opened wide, emitting a scarlet light.

The power of the Blood Dragon Eye surged toward the Asura Path like a tidal wave, attempting to control it with illusions and then turn its blood into bombs.

However, the scene that Chino expected—the enemy falling into an illusion—did not occur.

When her spiritual power touched the other party, it was as if she had entered a cold, dead, and lifeless space!
"How is this possible?!" Chino groaned, her petite body swaying violently, her face turning deathly pale instantly.

"He...he has no blood flowing in his body! No emotions! Not even...life!"

Even more terrifying, when she tried to force her way into those Rinnegan eyes, a power far more terrifying than her Blood Dragon Eyes came back at her!

"Pfft—" Chino suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. The backlash from the forced breaking of the illusion made her vision go black, and she almost collapsed to the ground.

"Chino!" Morishita Toshito hurriedly stepped forward to help her up.

"I...I'm fine..." Chino wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, her eyes filled with disbelief and fear.

Those eyes...

What kind of monster is it?

Chino, struggling to stay upright, warned, "Teacher... he... he's... a puppet!"

Nagato observed coldly from the perspective of the Asura Path.

This female Jonin of the Star Ninja clan is fairly strong, but she is only at the level of an ordinary Jonin.

That girl with the eye technique bloodline limit has strange abilities. With the bloodline limit, she can have strength close to that of a special jonin, but she is still too weak.

The other two were just ordinary Chunin cannon fodder.

Shura Path alone is enough to crush the entire field.

The battle was almost entirely one-sided.

The Asura Path was like a tiger among sheep, with all sorts of mechanical weapons appearing one after another, including superhuman punches, missiles, and laser beams, making Xia Ri and his companions live in constant danger.

Summer's Peacock Technique barely held up the defense and blocked most of the attacks, but Morishita Toshito and Murahashi Hazuki were repeatedly blown away by the air blasts, leaving them with countless wounds.

Chino's bloodline limit technique had little effect in the face of absolute power and Pain's bizarre "inanimate" physique.

"Damn it!" Chino was punched and sent flying, crashing heavily onto the riverbank, getting covered in mud and water.

She struggled to her feet, looking at the approaching Asura Path and the three enemies behind her who had been watching indifferently as if they disdained to fight. A sense of humiliation and anger welled up in her heart.

She bit her wrist hard, and blood gushed out.

"Using blood as a guide and water as a form..." Chino formed hand seals, and the river water mixed with her own blood boiled violently and soared into the sky!

"Blood Dragon Technique!"

Three ferocious blood dragons, each four or five meters thick and composed entirely of blood and river water, roared as they formed. Carrying a pungent smell of blood and powerful chakra fluctuations, they no longer aimed at the Asura Path, but instead pounced directly at Pain, the Deva Path, who had never made a move and seemed to be the leader!

The blood dragon was incredibly powerful; wherever it passed, it carved deep furrows into the ground.

However, faced with this ferocious attack, Pain merely raised his eyes slightly, his Rinnegan remaining as calm as still water.

He slowly raised one hand, aiming it at the roaring blood dragon.

"Shinra Tenzheng!"

An indifferent voice sounded.

Om-!
An indescribable, terrifying repulsive force suddenly erupted from the center of the Heavenly Dao!
The air is compressed to the extreme and then suddenly pushed out, forming a transparent force field barrier that is visible to the naked eye!

The moment the three enormous blood dragons came into contact with this invisible barrier, it was as if they had crashed into an insurmountable chasm!
The blood that made up the dragon's body instantly disintegrated, collapsing completely with a whoosh and turning into a rain of blood that fell from the sky.

The powerful repulsive force continued to blast Chino, who was rushing ahead, and Morishita Toshito and Murahashi Hazuki, who were trying to provide support, away like autumn leaves being swept away by the wind!
"Wow!"

The three men screamed and fell to the ground, covered in mud and their own blood. Their bones ached as if they were broken, and they struggled to get up for a while.

With heavy steps, Shura Path once again approached the fallen Xia Ri, his arm deformed and gleaming with a dangerous light, ready to deliver the final blow.

A hint of despair flashed in Xia Ri's eyes as she tried to gather chakra, only to find that her chakra had been completely depleted in the previous defense.

At this critical moment!
A green figure appeared silently at the edge of the battlefield like a ghost, and then shot towards the battlefield at a speed that was difficult to detect with the naked eye!

Their target was none other than Pain, who appeared to be the leader!

The timing was incredibly tricky; it was right after Pain had just finished using "Shinra Tensei," during that brief, almost negligible gap!
"Hmm?" Nagato caught sight of the rapidly approaching green light through Pain's perspective, which carried a hint of sharp killing intent.

Pain had just finished using his technique and could not immediately use Shinra Tensei to block it again.

The Human Path and Animal Path beside him moved instantly, like the most loyal guards, swiftly crossing in front of the Heavenly Path!
Ding!Ding!
The sound of kunai colliding rang out crisply.

The Human Path skillfully parried the attacker's ninja sword with a hand chop, while the Animal Path formed hand seals in an attempt to summon a spirit.

The attacking figure missed its target and retreated instantly, landing in front of Xia Ri and revealing its form.

It was Uchiha Shisui, with short black hair, wearing a Konoha green vest, his face showing signs of travel but his eyes sharp.

He even had a Konoha headband tied to his forehead.

Shisui glanced at the heavily injured Natsumi and the three young ninjas lying motionless in the distance, his brows furrowed.

"Mr. Shisui?!" Summer recognized the person, her surprise mixed with a glimmer of hope that she had escaped a desperate situation.

"We walked and stopped, and just as we got to the vicinity, we heard some noise and came over." Shisui spoke succinctly, his three-tomoe Sharingan locking onto the four enemies in front of him, especially those strange Rinnegan eyes.

"These guys... are very strong, extremely strong." Even Shisui, who had earned a fearsome reputation during the Third Shinobi World War, had never seen such a strange group of people.

“I never expected,” Pain’s cold gaze swept over Shisui, “that Konoha’s ‘Shisui of the Body Flicker’ would appear here.”

Shisui was shocked. The other party actually knew him?!
"What is the relationship between the Uchiha clan and the Star Ninja, or rather, with that so-called 'Shura'?" Pain's voice was calm, yet tinged with a hint of interest as he questioned.

As the largest ninja clan in Konoha, the Uchiha clan was also one of the obstacles to Nagato's revenge against Konoha. After cooperating with 'Uchiha Madara' played by Obito, he naturally inquired about a lot of information about the Uchiha clan.

There is a lot of attention paid to Uchiha Shisui, the strongest member of the Uchiha clan in the contemporary era.

Shisui did not answer. The other party's powerful strength and strange eyes reminded him of some ancient legends about the Sage of Six Paths.

He quickly formed hand seals.

"Phantom Instant Technique!"

In an instant, dozens of Shisui's clones appeared on the battlefield, indistinguishable from the real ones. Each one carried a sharp killing intent and launched an attack on the Human Path, Animal Path, and Deva Path Pain from all directions at the same time!

The blades flashed, the kunai pierced the air, and the attack was like mercury pouring onto the ground!

Summer also took a deep breath and used the Peacock Technique again, with purple chakra transforming into tentacles and sharp blades to assist from the side, attempting to disrupt Pain's vision and actions.

Faced with this overwhelming offensive, the Human Path and the Animal Path quickly moved to block, their physical skills proving to be equally impressive, accurately parrying or dodging each attack.

Pain stood still, his Rinnegan slowly rotating, as if analyzing the chakra flow of each of his clones.

"It's useless." Pain said indifferently, his Rinnegan already seeing through the illusion: "Before the eyes of God, all illusions are false."

He suddenly raised his hand, aiming it at Shisui's true form and the direction of summer behind him.

"Shinra Tenzheng!"

The powerful repulsive force erupted once again!
Shisui's countless illusory clones shattered and disappeared like bubbles in the sunlight.

Shisui's true form only had time to hold the short sword horizontally in front of him before he was struck hard by an irresistible force!

boom!
Shisui flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily next to Chino. He felt a sweet taste in his throat and spat out a mouthful of blood.

He felt as if his internal organs had shifted, and he was utterly horrified: "What kind of ninjutsu is this?! It's completely impossible to defend against!"

He took the opportunity to pull up the seriously injured Chino, and quickly retreated to join Natsumi, Toshito, and Hazuki, who were struggling to gather around him.

"Thank you," Xia Ri said breathlessly to Zhi Shui, her face pale.

Then, Natsumi instructed Morishita Toshito, "Toshito, take Chino and Hazuki and retreat first. This is no longer a battle you can participate in!"

The opponent's strength far exceeded Xia Ri's imagination. With just one person's attack, Chino and Hazuki were seriously injured in one round. Only Junto's physique was better, and his injuries were the lightest.

"Teacher! We won't leave!" Morishita Toshito gritted his teeth, refusing to back down despite being covered in bruises and limping.

Hazuki Murahashi also stubbornly tried to stand up and move toward Natsumi's side.

Shisui, slightly out of breath, stared intently at the four figures opposite him who had reunited unharmed, his heart filled with turmoil.

The enemy was far stronger than he had anticipated!
There are also four pairs of the legendary Rinnegan!
With his current strength as an elite Jonin, having lost his Mangekyou Sharingan, he couldn't even get his opponent to take things seriously, despite using all his skills.
Pain slowly stepped forward, his Rinnegan looking down at the wounded people before him as if judging them.

"The struggle of ants is meaningless. Feel the pain."

He raised his hand again, seemingly to end this tedious fight.

At this moment——

A sudden change occurred!

On the back of the right hands of Natsuki, Chino, Toshito Morishita, and Hazuki Murahashi, the engraved runes that were usually hidden under the skin suddenly burst out with a strong dark red light without warning!

A massive, scorching, and violent yet inexhaustible chakra surged forth from the seals like a volcanic eruption, instantly engulfing their entire bodies!

"This is...?!" Xia Ri stared in astonishment at the glowing mark on her hand.

Wherever this powerful chakra flowed, the intense pain quickly subsided, the deep wounds that exposed bone healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, the depleted physical strength was rapidly restored, and even some internal injuries were soothed!
Chino's pale face instantly regained its color, and she felt the burning pain and backlash from the Blood Dragon Eyes being soothed by this warm and powerful force. The scabs on the wounds of Morishita Toshito and Murahashi Hazuki fell off, revealing new skin.

In just a few seconds, the injuries on the four people were miraculously healed!

His condition is even better than before the battle!

A vast expanse of dark red chakra flickered on their bodies like tangible flames, bringing an unparalleled sense of power.

“Lord Shura…” Xia Ri murmured to herself, immediately realizing that Lord Shura, far away in the Star Capital, had received the information she reported and transmitted power remotely through this mysterious “Chakra Imprint Network”.

In the distant dense forest, Nagato, whose vision was shared with Pain's Six Paths, suddenly opened his eyes wide and coughed violently: "Cough...cough cough! This chakra...?!"

Xiao Nan immediately looked at him with concern.

Nagato was filled with shock.

Through Pain's perception, he could clearly see the enormous, almost tangible chakra emanating from the four people!

This power...

It's so similar to the way he used the chakra receiver to transmit power when he controlled the Six Paths of Pain!
But it's more direct and more efficient!

Moreover, this dark red chakra...

It seemed endless, giving people a terrifying sense of pressure, like facing a tailed beast!
Yet it is somewhat different, seemingly more violent and dark?
For the first time, a slight ripple appeared on Pain's perpetually indifferent face as he stared intently at the boiling dark red chakra flames emanating from the four members of the Natsume family.

"What's this?"

The battlefield situation reversed in an instant.

Bathed in the dark red chakra flames, the four summer-olds were fully recovered from their injuries and returned to their peak condition.

The immense external chakra not only healed their bodies but also brought them an unprecedented sense of power.

As Chino Miyagi felt the surging power within her, her Blood Dragon Eyes glowed red once more, but this time, the light was more solid, and the stinging pain from the previous backlash had been completely soothed.

She let out a sharp cry, her hands forming a hand seal, causing the surrounding pebbles to tremble slightly.

Toshihito Morishita and Hazuki Murahashi exchanged a glance, both seeing the astonishment and renewed fighting spirit in each other's eyes.

They gripped their kunai tightly, assuming a fighting stance, the dark red chakra pulsating across their bodies making them feel as if they had inexhaustible strength.

As a Jonin, the summer heat made the experience even more acute.

This chakra was powerful and violent, yet it was unusually docile and guided by her, subtly blending with her own Peacock Mystic Art chakra.

She took a deep breath, and purple chakra surged forth again. But unlike before, this time the purple chakra was surrounded by a faint dark red halo, making it appear even more eerie and powerful.

Uchiha Shisui knelt on the ground, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. He looked in shock at the four people beside him who seemed to have undergone a complete transformation, and then at the back of his empty hands.

He did not possess that mysterious mark and could not receive the gift of this power.

Pain's attack, "Shinra Tensei," had just caused him considerable internal injuries, and he could only barely suppress them at the moment.

"The power of Asura..." Shisui's eyes were filled with complex emotions.

This method of remotely transmitting massive amounts of chakra is unheard of!

The fluctuations in Pain's eyes gradually subsided; his Rinnegan remained indifferent, but now held a greater degree of importance.

He spoke slowly, his voice emanating from Yahiko's body, tinged with inquiry: "An interesting trick. But this chakra... it's nauseating. It seems the so-called 'Shura' is no ordinary person either."

He raised his hand, pointing it at the four menacing summer figures: "However, it is still futile before the power of God."

"Whether it's futile or not, we'll only know by trying!" Xia Ri replied coldly. Confident, she launched the first attack, "Peacock Magic Technique - Thousand Feather Arrows!"

Purple chakra enveloped in dark red light condensed into countless fine arrows, which shot towards Pain and his companions like a storm, with speed and power far exceeding those before!
At the same time, Chino Miyagi pressed her hands to the ground: "Blood Secret Technique - Crimson Binding!"

From the ground beneath the feet of the Asura, Human, and Animal realms, countless tentacles formed from congealed blood suddenly burst forth, rapidly wrapping around their legs!
This time, the blood was mixed with that dark red chakra, greatly enhancing the binding force.

Toshihito Morishita and Hazuki Murahashi also flanked from both sides, sometimes using ninjutsu and sometimes throwing kunai with explosive tags, looking for an opportunity to interfere.

After receiving the Dark Nine-Tails' chakra through the seal, even Morishita Toshito and Murahashi Hazuki, who were originally only Chunin level, briefly unleashed power comparable to Jonin!

Faced with this well-coordinated enhanced attack, Shura Dao took the initiative, slamming its mechanical arm into the ground and shattering many of the blood tentacles.

The Human Path and the Animal Path also dodged or blocked the chakra arrows.

Just as Pain was about to use Shinra Tensei again to deflect everything, Natsumi had already anticipated this. The attack, though seemingly fierce, was actually setting the stage for what would happen next.

“Mr. Shisui!” Summer shouted.

Uchiha Shisui, who had been waiting for the right opportunity, endured his injuries and his three-tomoe Sharingan spun rapidly. Although it was not the Mangekyou Sharingan, his dynamic vision and perception were still top-notch!
He spotted the extremely subtle premonition before Pain raised his hand, and the moment when the other three were temporarily restrained!
"Fire Release: Dragon Fire Technique!"

A massive fire dragon roared as it spewed forth from the still water mouth, not directly attacking the Heavenly Dao, but rather blocking his possible escape routes!
At that very moment, Xia Ri unleashed her deadly attack: "Peacock Technique - Dragon!"

The enormous purple chakra dragon head that materialized before her, its fangs stained with a rich, dark red luster, let out a deafening roar, tearing through the air as it lunged at Pain!
Its power far surpasses any previous attack!
Nagato calmly analyzed the situation using Pain's Rinnegan.

The opponent's coordination, tactics, and sudden increase in strength indeed exceeded his expectations.

"Interesting." Nagato muttered to himself. Under his control, Pain did not choose to take the hit head-on, but instead turned slightly to the side.

boom!
The enormous chakra beast head slammed into the ground, almost grazing the hem of the Heavenly Dao's robes, creating a deep crater and sending dirt flying everywhere.

However, just as Pain dodged the main attack and his movements faltered slightly, Uchiha Shisui, who had been moving at high speed looking for an opportunity, moved!
He mastered the Body Flicker Technique to its fullest extent, like a green lightning bolt, piercing straight into Pain's back!
Extremely fast!

But Pain shares the same vision across all six paths!
Almost at the same moment that Shisui set off, the Shura Path on the flank suddenly lashed out a mechanical chain, which lashed out like a venomous snake toward Shisui's inevitable path!

Humanity also abandoned blocking the arrows and fearlessly rushed towards Still Water, attempting to block it with his body.

Shisui's pupils contracted, and he had no choice but to change his thrust to a sweep. His short sword cut through the chains, and at the same time, he kicked away the oncoming Renjiandao. However, the best opportunity to kill him had already been missed.

Pain slowly turned around, his Rinnegan staring indifferently at Shisui, who was standing close at hand.

“A good tactic, but a pity.” Pain slowly raised his hand.

"All things are attracted by heaven!"

A powerful suction force suddenly acted on Shisui!
Shisui felt his body suddenly lighten, and he was uncontrollably pulled by an invisible force towards Pain!

He hurriedly plunged the dagger into the ground in an attempt to stabilize himself, but the ground was plowed open like tofu by the suction!
Just as he was about to be sucked into the hands of the Heavenly Dao, Xia Ri hurriedly manipulated the chakra tentacles of the Peacock Mystic Art to wrap around Shisui's waist, trying to pull him back.

Chino also manipulated the blood tentacles to wrap around Shisui's ankles.

The two forces clashed violently, and Shisui hung suspended in mid-air, as if about to be torn apart, suffering unbearable pain.

"Struggle! Suffer!" Pain commented indifferently, slightly increasing the power of Universal Pull.

Click!

Summer's chakra tentacles snapped first!

Chino's blood tentacles also shattered one by one!
Still water was once again accelerated and pulled toward the Heavenly Dao!
"Psychic art!"

Just then, the Animal Path Pain, who had been silent all along, formed hand seals and slammed his palm into the ground!
White smoke exploded, and a huge, winged chameleon-shaped summoning beast was summoned. Its long tongue, like a whip, shot out at an astonishing speed. It did not attack anyone, but precisely wrapped around Shisui, who was being pulled by the Universal Pull, and pulled him sharply in the opposite direction!
puff--!
Shisui felt a sharp pain in his shoulder; the chameleon's tongue had barbs that were deeply embedded in his flesh!
Two enormous forces were vying for control of his body, almost tearing him apart!

"Ugh!" Shisui couldn't help but let out a painful groan, his face turning deathly pale instantly.

"Mr. Shisui!" Xia Ri exclaimed, but was powerless to help again.

Pain, watching Shisui writhe in agony during the clash of powers, showed no pity in his Rinnegan eyes. Instead, as if conducting some kind of experiment, he spoke again, his voice resonating through the hum of the Universal Pull, striking directly into Shisui's heart:
"Why would Shisui of Konoha betray the village that raised you and join this hypocritical kingdom built by these rogue ninja?"

"What has the 'Asura' you pledge allegiance to given you? Power? Authority? Or... a vague and illusory fantasy of so-called peace?"

"Look at this land. The so-called 'rebirth' is nothing but a sandcastle built on conquest and bloodshed. The old nobles have been slaughtered, and the new order has been established by violence. The seeds of hatred have long been sown, waiting to sprout. How is this any different from the cycle that has plagued the ninja world for thousands of years?"

"Is this the peace you seek? To betray your past and submit to a more powerful machine of violence?"

Tiandao spoke slowly, yet every word was piercing, attempting to disrupt Zhishui's will.

Shisui gritted his teeth, enduring the excruciating pain, but his mind involuntarily drifted back to what he had seen and heard in the past few days in Youzhi County and Nujiang County.

The unprecedented glimmer of hope on the faces of ordinary people, the rapidly rebuilding homes, the equitable land distribution policies…

Everyone lives in peace and contentment, helping each other, full of hope for the future, and looking forward to a better life!
This is completely different from the suspicion of the Konoha leadership towards the Uchiha, Danzo's conspiracy, and the pure destruction brought about by this guy who calls himself "God".

"You... what do you know?!" Shisui squeezed out the words through gritted teeth: "Shura... what he gives to the common people is... hope to break free from their shackles!"

"Hope?" Pain's voice carried a hint of sarcasm. "Hope is the breeding ground for greater suffering. When this false hope is shattered, the pain becomes all the more profound. Only by experiencing extreme pain can one truly understand peace."

A hint of pity seemed to flash in his Rinnegan, yet it was also chillingly cold: "Just like the pain you are feeling right now. This is the shortcut to understanding."

"Nonsense!" Summer retorted angrily, gathering her chakra once more.

"Peacock's Wonderful Method: Twin Wings!"

A huge purple chakra wing took shape, glowing with dark red light, and slashed fiercely at the chameleon's tongue!
At the same time, Chino also used the Blood Secret Technique again, and new blood tentacles burst out of the ground, wrapping around Pain's feet in an attempt to interfere with his technique.

The giant chameleon's body blurred, and a small snake head sprouted from its tail!

The newly separated snake head lashed out, precisely shattering Chino's blood tentacles, and then tightly wrapped around Shisui.

Pain ignored the summer's attack and unleashed the power of Universal Pull once again!
Stab it--!
A teeth-grinding tearing sound rang out!

Shisui let out a suppressed scream as blood gushed from his left shoulder!

The chameleon's barbed tongue tore off a large chunk of flesh, even revealing the bare bones!
Due to the sudden pain and loss of power, he was abruptly pulled towards Pain by the Universal Pull!
Pain's icy hand was aimed at Shisui's head from afar.

"Feel the pain."

“Think about the pain.”

“Accept the pain.”

"Understand pain..."

Just as Shisui was about to have his head grabbed by Pain, another unexpected event occurred!
Suddenly, without warning, a dark red engraved rune appeared on the back of Shisui's right hand, which had been empty!

The newly appeared engraving was like a red-hot branding iron, emitting a dazzling light!
Immediately afterwards, a dark red chakra that was far larger, purer, and more violent than that of the four summer days erupted!

A dark red flame, almost tangible, instantly enveloped Shisui's entire body!
"What?!" Nagato, speaking through Pain's perspective, uttered a truly shocked exclamation for the first time!
This power...

It far exceeds the total amount given to those four people just now!

Moreover, the nature of this chakra...

It is filled with extreme darkness and destruction, yet it also carries a powerful and oppressive aura!

Om-!
The powerful dark red chakra violently shattered the binding force of the Universal Pull!
It even shattered the tongue of a chameleon that was approaching instantly!
Shisui hovered in mid-air, enveloped in blazing dark red chakra flames, and the terrifying wound on his left shoulder healed rapidly under the light.

He slowly raised his head, and his Sharingan eyes temporarily turned into an eerie dark red, with complex patterns flashing in and out of his pupils.

Shisui felt the power surging within him, a power he had never experienced before. A cold and violent killing intent surged uncontrollably into his heart, and his gaze locked onto Pain below.

A cold, authoritative voice, seemingly transcending space and echoing faintly through the dense, dark red chakra, resonated clearly in the air above the battlefield, reaching everyone, especially Pain's ears:

"Who gave you permission... to touch my people?"

The voice wasn't loud, but it carried a chilling, oppressive quality.
