"Earth Release: Earth Wall!"
Kai's calm words cut through the air.
Samui only saw his hands moving before the ground rumbled, and dozens of meters high earth walls erupted from the ground, forming a massive circular fortress, instantly encasing the kilometer-wide valley.
The sudden display stunned everyone.
Some people are just naturally better than others!
Using Earth Release, Kai created a castle in an instant, completely blocking the devastating shockwave.
For a moment, the tense shinobi within the earth walls felt a surge of relief.
Listening to the explosions outside and seeing the massive, crimson, ominous Asura figure, an eerie silence fell over the scene.
They couldn't bring themselves to attack this foe.
The shockwave raged for a full minute.
When it subsided, the earth walls crumbled into dust, and the Asura Susanoo dissipated, leaving only Kai standing on a lone rock amidst the vast ruins.
The valley was utterly devastated: shattered mountains and deep fissures.
A wave of nervous swallowing sounds rippled through the onlookers.
Kinkaku and Ginkaku, who had boasted of cooperation with the Blood-Colored Asura, were likely reduced to nothing.
This god-like being was beyond their comprehension.
Their next encounter would be a fight to the death.
"Dodai-sama!"
Cries echoed from all sides as hundreds of Kumogakure shinobi arrived, many injured and battered.
As they approached, seeing the slender figure in the red cloud-patterned robe, their pupils constricted.
"That's the Blood-Colored Asura of Konoha! What's he doing here?!"
"Is he colluding with the Yotsuki clan? With the Fourth Raikage and Killer Bee gone, can we stop Uchiha Kai?"
Panic erupted.
They had the courage to fight Kinkaku and Ginkaku, but facing the infamous Uchiha Kai, fear gripped their hearts.
His meteoric rise had shaken the shinobi world in just months.
He'd survived every battle, from large-scale engagements to confrontations with peak-level opponents.
Only the Blood-Colored Asura, Uchiha Kai, survived!
"Stop! Calm down, everyone!" Dodai shouted urgently.
The previous battle was still fresh in their minds.
Even Kinkaku and Ginkaku, using tailed beast transformations, couldn't withstand Kai's single attack.
Their chances of victory were practically zero.
Dodai looked desperately at Samui.
No, everyone present who witnessed the battle felt the same.
"Uch… Uchiha Kai…"
Feeling the weight of their gazes, Samui felt conflicted.
She'd only known Kai for half a day, yet it felt like a lifetime.
From initial wariness to gratitude, and now awe.
Kai somehow provided a strange sense of security.
But before she could speak, Kai, his body crackling with black lightning, appeared before her using Lightning Release Body Flicker.
The sudden appearance sent a jolt through the newly arrived shinobi.
Many saw Samui, seventeen or eighteen years old, as a goddess, both in strength and beauty. They would have acted if not for Kai's fearsome reputation.
Hundreds of eyes watched as Kai's hand slowly rose, gently touching her forehead.
A warm smile bloomed on his face.
"Don't worry. For your sake, I'll clean up this mess, then leave. You can retreat."
As he spoke, his gaze moved past Samui to the seal holding Matatabi, which was now losing its chakra support.
The worried Kumogakure shinobi were stunned.
Seeing Samui, blushing after being openly flirted with, was a far cry from the goddess they knew. It was unbelievable.
ROAR!
A ferocious roar echoed.
Powerful chakra surged as the seal holding Matatabi shattered.
Amidst the sandstorm, Matatabi's massive, deep blue body, covered in black seals, appeared.
"Th-this is a tailed beast rampage! Is the heavens destroying Kumogakure?!"
"Uchiha Kai alone is despair, and now a rampaging tailed beast… how can we survive this?"
Chaos erupted.
Many veteran shinobi trembled, despair etched on their faces.
Kumogakure, without the Fourth Raikage and Killer Bee, had no chance against this crisis.
"Calm down! Don't act rashly!" Dodai shouted, looking at Kai before slowly retreating.
"Samui will handle this."
Dodai preferred to avoid Kai's wrath rather than risk Kumogakure's destruction.
Neither Matatabi nor Kai were opponents they could face.
The newly arrived shinobi were stunned by this turn of events, looking at Kai as his words reached their ears, sending another jolt of fear through them.
"I give you two choices: First, come with me quietly. Second, I beat you up, then you come with me."
