"Five seconds..."
Hyuga Sho carried Gui in one hand and shouldered the box with the other, using Shadow Flash to leave the scene at top speed.
Just now.
That mysterious guy.
The cooldown for the skill that activated the repulsion ability was exactly five seconds.
The first time, he sent Gui flying.
The second time, he sent himself flying.
During the five-second cooldown, he forcibly endured one of his own punches.
Then he used the attraction technique.
Rather than directly using repulsion.
This proved... that ability might have a cooldown.
Of course, this was merely one possible guess.
Whether that was really the case would have to be confirmed through multiple exchanges.
But no matter what...
"There are too many of them, and six more are hiding above us..."
Hyuga Sho's Byakugan.
He could clearly see Nagato, along with the other Five Paths of Pain, perched on Yata Mirror's body and inside its mouth.
In terms of numbers, if they all attacked at once, he would definitely not be their opponent.
—If every one of them was as troublesome as that guy.
Gui was gravely injured.
Whether the box contained Nohara Rin was still unknown.
For all these reasons, Hyuga Sho could not fight without restraint.
"And... his repulsion ability is extremely strange... it can even penetrate Shikotsumyaku..."
For now, he still could not see through the essence of that ability.
If it could even injure his internal organs.
After being hit by it several times, he would inevitably be shaken to death.
"Fortunately, I killed Hozuki Mangetsu earlier and absorbed Water Release Transformation, strengthening my internal organs and making them as tough as rubber... otherwise..."
Hyuga Sho looked at Gui, who was already on the verge of death.
Without that ability.
His fate would probably have been no different
