The pressure from that Buddha's Palm in the sky was truly terrifying.
Everyone sensed the pressure brought by that giant palm.
Therefore, everyone in the arena.
Was momentarily focused on that Buddha's Palm.
To the point where they forgot about attacking their opponents.
Not only did the ordinary ninjas exhibit this unusual behavior.
Even Gaara, who had activated his fully transformed One-Tails, began to tremble.
"What is that!?
So strong...
I feel like if I were to get hit by it...
I might die..."
Gaara couldn't help but shudder.
Afterward, he sensed that the Buddha's Palm wasn't targeting him.
So he relaxed.
However.
Although he was somewhat relieved.
When he attacked, he deliberately avoided the direction of the VIP platform.
"Damn it...
I can't even move..."
Orochimaru discovered something that made him tremble—he was completely suppressed!
Under that terrifying pressure.
He didn't even have the ability to move.
"Is this the power of that Holy Lord?
Too terrifying..."
Looking at the increasingly large palm.
His mindset completely collapsed.
"Why?!
Why are you targeting me!
Why!?"
No one answered his questions.
The Buddha's Palm, with its terrifying pressure, slammed down.
At that moment, the entire world seemed to fall silent.
A moment later.
A massive explosion resounded.
"Boom!"
The houses, the Wood Release, Orochimaru.
All vanished under this palm strike.
Leaving only a giant handprint on the ground.
"Gulp..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi swallowed hard.
Then he let out a long sigh of relief.
"This attack...
Could it be from that mysterious Holy Lord?"
At this moment.
Hiruzen Sarutobi also began to suspect the leader of the "Black-Clad Organization."
Because in his opinion.
Only the leader of the "Black-Clad Organization" would possess such power to unleash such a Ninjutsu from a distance.
"No... that's impossible..."
Kabuto Yakushi's eyelids twitched uncontrollably as he watched the scene unfold not far away.
"Lord... Lord Orochimaru...
Did he die!?
No...
Impossible...
I don't believe it...
This must be a lie?"
"What kind of existence could unleash such an attack..."
Kakashi stared with his Sharingan.
Even though the palm strike hadn't been aimed at him, he still felt his heart pound.
"Could it be.
That the user of this Ninjutsu is connected to that mysterious Black-Clad Organization?
What kind of organization could that be..."
Countless people stared blankly at the giant handprint on the ground.
For a moment, an eerie silence fell over the arena.
It wasn't until a few moments later, when Gaara roared again, that the crowd finally reacted.
"Damn it, there's still this monster!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi took a deep breath.
Then, wielding his Adamantine Staff, he charged towards Gaara.
"Die!"
Gaara seemed to have been provoked by the recent palm strike.
Seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi charging at him, he immediately went berserk and lashed out with the One-Tails at Hiruzen Sarutobi.
"Boom!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi, already at his limit, couldn't withstand such an attack.
He was sent flying by the One-Tails' lash.
"Hokage-sama!"
Several Anbu rushed over to check on him.
The entire competition grounds erupted into renewed battle due to this small interruption.
"Hinata, you go first.
Leave this monster to me.
You go and deal with the invaders."
Hyuga Hiashi had been protecting Hinata ever since he noticed Gaara's "transformation."
Although Hinata's strength had increased significantly, in his eyes, Hinata was still very weak.
"It's alright."
Hinata shook her head and continued to attack Gaara.
Actually, she had more powerful techniques.
But she hadn't used them yet.
Because she always felt like she had "tricked" Bai Hao last time.
If she were to use an even more powerful technique this time, it might cause some trouble for Bai Hao.
Plus, there were many other ninjas here, so.
She went easy on him a little.
She had only been using "Discharge Mode" to fight Gaara.
"Father.
It's okay.
Lord Third Hokage is here now.
We can definitely defeat this monster!"
Hinata's eyes were determined.
However, her words had barely fallen.
Hiruzen Sarutobi on the other side was sent flying again by Gaara.
"The Hokage seems to have been injured during his fight with Orochimaru..."
Hiashi continued, "This place is dangerous.
You should leave!"
"No!"
Hinata's eyes were determined.
She wanted to change herself.
This was a perfect opportunity.
She knew that with Bai Hao's strength, defeating this monster would be an easy task.
The reason Bai Hao hadn't acted yet.
Was probably because he wanted her to get some practice.
"Bai Hao-kun..."
