"This seems like I underestimated their strength!"
Jiraiya muttered to himself, his tone heavy, still not fully realizing the situation. "It should be a spatial fluctuation. Could this be another form of space-time ninjutsu after the Flying Thunder God technique?"
But he couldn't see clearly yet; he needed to observe the next phase of the battle to fully understand!
"Is this really space ninjutsu?"
"Go, all of you, attack!" The red-clad cultist snorted, his voice booming. "The light of Jashin-sama is upon you!"
"Attack!"
"Go!"
With the cultist's furious shout, the others were also filled with renewed determination!
They mustered their courage and charged toward Shisui, their voices filled with seriousness, showing no hesitation!
"Come at me!" Shisui lightly called out, his figure once again plunging into the crowd, his expression especially grave!
As he leapt through the air, each movement caught one of the cultists off guard. However, these ninja seemed to have prepared themselves, wary of Shisui's possible surprise attacks.
"This is starting to get interesting!!" Shisui shouted, his body vanishing as several clones appeared around him.
These clones then charged toward the cultists.
"Ahh~~"
A series of anguished cries rang out. The cultists were no match for Shisui, only able to barely hold on.
From time to time, there were cries of pain.
At that moment, someone suddenly noticed Genya, who was standing off to the side watching the scene: "There's another person over there! Let's go after him too!"
They knew they weren't a match for Shisui, so... some of them turned their attention to Genya, thinking he was the weakest.
They decided to deal with Genya first!
In an instant!
Two or three Jonin, along with five or six Chunin who had followed, rushed toward Genya, wanting to take him down quickly!
However,
They didn't notice the cube flashing with brilliant light in Genya's palm, causing the ninjas who were directly staring at him to squint their eyes!
Under their watch, Genya suddenly threw the cube at them. Instinctively, they closed their eyes and swung their kunai to block!
Weng~~
The space seemed to ripple as the cube rapidly expanded, enveloping the three ninjas nearby!
The dazzling light surged upward!
It was like a second sun!
Then, in an instant, the three ninjas were quickly wiped out under the white light, leaving no trace behind.
The cube vanished!
The three had completely disappeared without a trace.
"This is a monster~~ Are you an evil spirit?" someone exclaimed in fear, their face filled with shock.
A few of their comrades had just disappeared silently. This shattered their understanding of reality. These were living people, and just like that, they were gone!
They had been fighting alongside them moments ago!
Seeing this, the people who had planned to attack Genya now started backing away, taking several cautious steps back. They stared warily at Genya.
No one dared approach anymore!
"What just happened? A jutsu that can erase several people? Or did he use a space ninjutsu to transfer them away?" The red-clad cultist, watching the three disappear, felt his heart tighten in fear.
Although he has an immortal body, unlike that monster Hidan, as long as his body isn't damaged too severely, he'll be fine.
But the ninjutsu before him, capable of annihilating everything, left him in shock.
What if that ninjutsu hit him? What would happen then? This... it's simply unbelievable!
It's very possible that his immortality wouldn't help at all, and he might not even have any chance to resist!
Thinking this, the red-clad cultist shouted to the front-line ninjas, "Attack, attack! If you can injure these two, I'll give you Jashin-sama's blessing when I return!"
As long as they injure these two, he could get their blood!
Heh, even if their ninjutsu is strong, with his semi-immortal body and Jashin-sama's Curse of Death, it should be enough to kill them.
Jashin's blessing?
The others, hearing Jashin's blessing, had their eyes gleam with excitement!
Their fighting spirit reignited.
After receiving Jashin's blessing, they would gain immortality and become red-clad cultists!
Become stronger, become stronger.
This desire for immortality drove them crazy, and they charged toward Genya and the others again!
Shisui's face tightened slightly, and he increased his speed in hunting.
Genya, on the other hand, was more relaxed. He could easily throw out two Dust Release Techniques to wipe out several people, making them even more fearful!
In fact, most of the people had already gathered around Shisui, leaving fewer near Genya!
Seeing this, the red-clad cultist knew it was bad and also joined the battle!
Not far away...
"Dust Release? Is that the Dust Release?"
Jiraiya rubbed his eyes in disbelief, his words full of doubt: "Dust Release? Dust Release? Is this the Dust Release... Could it be Onoki's technique?"
Jiraiya looked at Genya, still in disbelief.
Dust Release, Dust Release...
The person in front of him was about the same height as Ōnoki. Could it be... this person really is Ōnoki?
But how could the mighty Tsuchikage possibly join Atsukara?
That shouldn't be possible. This person must have learned Ōnoki's Dust Release, but... judging by the technique and speed of their Dust Release, this person is far stronger than Tsuchikage Ōnoki.
For a moment, he couldn't even imagine what was happening. His tone turned serious.
What's going on here?
Is there a second person who can use Dust Release?
Jiraiya, being one of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha, knew the terror of Dust Release.
When it comes to top-tier destructive ninjutsu, Dust Release's ability to destroy an area is absolutely above the most powerful techniques.
But now someone else can use this technique?
And that ninja wearing a tiger mask also knows space-time ninjutsu!
And there were also the Wood Style ninjas that had appeared before.
What exactly is Atsukara?
He was already filled with confusion.
On the battlefield, as Shisui was attacking, was he using genjutsu, taking advantage of his opponents' momentary distraction to strike them down?
With the red-clad cultists joining the fight, Shisui was clearly under more pressure.
The battle intensified!
However, Shisui still maintained control of the situation, and from time to time, he would severely injure one of his enemies.
Suddenly,
Genya seized an opening when a red-clad cultist made a mistake, and with one swift strike, he slashed the person's throat... Blood splattered!
But,
The red-clad cultist revealed a twisted smile and grabbed Shisui's arm. "So, this is your real body, huh?"
"Uh? Are you okay?"
Shisui looked at the red-clad cultist, surprised.
So, they're truly immortal?
Is this what Jashin cult calls a divine gift? No wonder these people get so excited when they talk about divine gifts, even to the point of wanting to fight to the death!
So, this is the ability that tempts them?
Taking advantage of Shisui's moment of shock, the red-clad cultist sneered, then opened their mouth to bite down on Shisui's arm.
The smile on their face grew more sinister by the second!
