Naruto: Nara's skill set is incredibly sneaky.

Chapter 203 Three punches shatter the evil god's dream, my lord, I am one of our own!

On the way back to Konoha, Shika made a point of observing.

I didn't sense any chakra fluctuations or feel like I was being watched along the way.

When he passed through the village, some villagers did look at him, but those were just curious glances. If anyone would reveal his whereabouts, it was only these villagers.

But the problem is that from Lu Shi's perspective, the villagers' actions seem normal.

If you can't figure it out, just stop thinking about it. The most important thing when luring someone out of their hole is patience.

Ten days have passed since Shika returned to Konoha.

Bai Si finally sent word.

"Lord Shikatoki, there's been some unusual activity in Yugakure."

Lu Shi exited his cultivation state and said, "I understand, I'll be right there."

He directly swapped positions with the shadows inside Yugakure.

When they arrived at Yugakure Village, they didn't leave. Instead, they spread natural energy throughout the village. "Is someone arresting civilians?"

The deer blended into the night, following behind the hunters, and soon arrived at a small village.

I've been to this place before, and I didn't notice anything unusual then.

But now, returning here, the blood energy inside is extremely dense, causing Lu Shi's expression to harden. "These cults were indeed hiding from me, but unfortunately, I still managed to catch them."

The cult leader stood at the head.

Behind them is a strange portrait.

The ground was covered with a strange array drawn with fresh blood.

Inside the formation, there lay a person, a person whom Lu Shi recognized.

Or perhaps they've never met in this life, but they saw each other in anime in a past life—it was Hidan from the immortal duo.

"Gentlemen, the Jashin has issued a divine decree, granting his most loyal follower, Hidan, immortality. I invite you all to witness this magnificent spectacle together!"

The cult leader's voice was deep, and bursts of chakra emanated from him, mixed with elements of illusion, constantly bewitching his followers.

Especially when they heard about immortality, the cultists' eyes gleamed with unprecedented greed as they stared intently at Hidan lying on the ground.

"What a coincidence, is this the time when Hidan obtained immortality? I remember in the original work it was obtained through experiments, what's going on now?" Shikatoki watched this scene from the shadows, not making a move rashly.

Lu Shi was very certain that he had already eliminated the evil god, so he was very curious about which evil god the evil god the cult worshipped now was.

"Everyone, please pray sincerely to the evil god!"

The believers knelt down to pray.

The cult leader then looked at the portrait in front of him.

Just a few days after Lu Shi left, the cult leader restarted the experiment on immortality.

He thought he would fail again like before, but then he met Hidan, a madman who volunteered to participate in the experiment.

He didn't care about his own life or death, or rather, it was precisely because he didn't care that Hidan actually survived the experiment and became truly immortal.

Now that he is immortal, he needs more power from the evil god.

Today's ceremony is to gain more power.

"Come, Lord Evil God! I have brought you the immortality you desired!"

The portrait emitted an eerie, blood-red light.

Upon witnessing this scene, the believers became even more devout.

A crimson light enveloped Hidan.

Hidan, who had been calm, suddenly clutched his chest, "It hurts!"

Intense pain swept through his entire body, but Hidan revealed a slightly excited smile; he was enjoying the pain.

"Come on! Come on! Once I obtain the power of the evil god, I will be utterly invincible!"

The cult leader's eyes were filled with fervor upon seeing this scene.

A moment later, the red light left Hidan's body and then rushed into the leader's body. A powerful force surged within him, making the leader feel invincible.

Hidan got up from the ground and bowed respectfully to the evil god.

The cult leader also came to his senses from the surge of power.

"Now! The time has come to witness the power of the evil god."

The cult leader threw out a long knife.

Hidan picked up the long sword and stabbed himself in the heart without hesitation.

Blood was spilled on the ground.

The believers gasped in surprise.

Hidan drew his long sword, showing the cultist the wound on his chest. "I have gained immortality! I am not dead! Hahahaha, Hidan cooperated with the cultist to finish this good show."

The believers raised their arms and shouted, "You evil god!"

Feeling the lively atmosphere, the cult leader was very satisfied. "Alright, bring up today's offerings."

The kidnapped man was dragged up and thrown into the center of the formation.

Upon seeing this, Lu Shi stopped hiding and used a teleportation technique to stand in the middle of the formation. "Do you want to try sacrificing me too?"

The people present were somewhat agitated upon seeing the sudden appearance of the person.

"How dare you defy the Evil God!"

"Kill him!"

"Kill him!"

The cultists were filled with rage. Lu Shi glanced back, and his energy surged, instantly stunning the civilians.

Of the entire sacrificial site, only Hidan and the cult leader remained conscious.

"Nara Deer Time!"

The cult leader looked grim, and gritted his teeth when he called out Lu Shi's name.

Lu Shi stroked his chin. "I'm very curious where you found this evil god! I remember I destroyed the evil god cult and killed the evil god!"

Lu Shi's words made the cult leader's heart skip a beat.

Sure enough, this evil god was not the same as the one they had previously worshipped.

He just didn't expect that Lu Shi had the strength to kill an evil god.

The leader believed it, but Hidan did not.

"What nonsense are you spouting! Killing the Evil God? How dare you disrespect the Evil God! I'll kill you right now!"

Hidan charged forward without hesitation.

His movements were completely haphazard, resembling a wild, uncontrolled fist.

"Get out of here." Shika grabbed Hidan's head and threw him aside, smashing the wall.

boom!

Hidan burst out of the ruins, shouting, "I'm immortal! How could a mere mortal like you possibly understand?! You can't kill me!"

Originally, Shika didn't want to pay attention to Hidan, but Hidan stuck to him like a leech, which annoyed him.

When the two made contact again, the sealing technique was activated immediately.

Hidan's special power was sealed, and in an instant, Hidan became an ordinary person. Shikatoshi took the opportunity to kick Hidan away.

The immense force caused Hidan's ribs to break.

Hidan's immortality is formed by that power, or rather, anyone can have immortality as long as they can withstand it and survive.

Now that Shikatoshi has sealed that power, Hidan's immortality will naturally disappear.

Hidan stared at the deer in horror: "What have you done?! Where is my immortality?!"

Hidan could clearly feel that he was injured. His original inexhaustible power was gone, and his intuition even told him that if he moved around recklessly, he would really die!

Shika ignored Hidan and walked toward the leader.

"Show me the portrait, I'll help you find out who this evil god is." Lu Shi stretched out his right hand, speaking in a tone that suggested he was doing it for her own good.

The cult leader hugged the portrait tightly and kept backing away until his back was pressed against the wall.

This portrait is his everything, his ambition, and he will never hand it over.

"Nara Shikatoki! I admit you're strong, but I've received power from the evil god, so I might not be no match for you!"

I----"

"Smack!"

A crisp sound rang out.

Lu Shi slapped the cult leader so hard he sent him flying.

The cult leader fell heavily to the ground, covering his face and staring at Lu Shi in disbelief.

"You! You wait until I'm ready!"

A crimson light shone from the cult leader's body.

"Smack!"

Lu Shi's slap was even more forceful, directly dissipating the power.

Seeing the cult leader frozen in place, Lu Shi was about to slap him again when the cult leader quickly spoke up: "Lord Lu Shi! This is a portrait of an evil god!"

It's not that the cult leader is admitting defeat.

I just woke him up with two slaps.

The person in front of me even killed the evil god he used to worship. How could he think that he could contend with Nara Shikatoki just because he has obtained a little bit of power from the evil god now?

As the saying goes, three punches shatter the evil god's dream, sir, I am one of our own!

It only took two slaps to kill the deer!

Lu Shi picked up the so-called image of the evil god and looked at it. "Where did you get this?"

The cult leader dared not hide the truth, "I obtained it by chance. At first, I didn't know what it was for. Later, the evil god took the initiative to communicate with me. I followed his instructions and used the power he gave me to start researching immortality."

Lu Shi carefully examined the portrait.

"This seems to be a seal, but the seal is already very fragile."

As Lu was speaking, the portrait in his hand exploded.

Blood-red smoke instantly enveloped the entire space, rushing rapidly towards Hidan's body.
