Several golden chains emerged from the ground, tightly binding several men in black.
"As expected of the Uzumaki Clan." Fear flashed in the scar-faced man's eyes, "No wonder Master Danzo was so jealous of you back then."
"Danzo That old guy should have died a long time ago." Nagato said coldly, "I didn't expect his men would dare to come here and run wild."
"Being wild?" the scar-faced man smiled ferociously, "We are here to enforce justice!"
He suddenly Hand Seals, and a strange Chakra erupted from his body.
"This is..." Sasuke's pupils contracted, "Curse Mark's power?"
"That's right!" The scar-faced man's body began to mutate, and his skin turned gray-black, "We have also mastered the research results of Lord Orochimaru!"
Other men in black also activated Curse Mark, and their strength instantly increased.
"Trouble." Naruto frowned, "These guys have become a lot stronger."
The battle escalates again. Enemies who activate Curse Mark not only increase in strength, but also lose their sense of pain, becoming extremely difficult to deal with.
At this moment, the ground suddenly began to shake.
"No!" Nagato's face changed drastically, "The shock wave of the battle stirred up the resentment underground!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a black mist emerged from the cracks in the ground. There were wailing sounds in the mist, which made people's hair stand on end.
"What is this?" The scar-faced man was also shocked.
"You have caused big trouble!" Nagato roared, "Now everyone will die here!"
The black mist became thicker and thicker, and blurry figures began to appear in it. Those were the enemies who died here, and now they have turned into ghosts.
"Jie Jie Jie..." the ghosts laughed strangely, "Living people... fresh living people..."
The people in black finally felt fear. Their Curse Mark power was useless in front of these evil spirits.
"Run!" the scar-faced man yelled, "Retreat!"
But it was too late. The evil ghosts pounced on all living people, regardless of friend or foe.
"Everyone gather around me!" Nagato held up Soul Reaper Staff, "I will temporarily suppress them!"
Everyone gathered in a hurry. Nagato's Soul Reaper Staff emitted white light, barely driving away the evil spirits.
"We can't last long like this." Nagato looked pale, "We must find a way as soon as possible."
"Let me try." Naruto stepped forward, "Nine-Tails, lend me your strength!"
"Kid, these ghosts are very troublesome." Nine-Tails's voice sounded in his mind, "They are no longer ordinary resentments."
"What should we do?"
"We can only use that trick." Nine-Tails sighed, "But the risk is very high."
"What trick?"
"Tailed Beast Bomb Purification Technique." Nine-Tails said, "Use the power of Tailed Beast Bomb to purify all resentments, but if you don't control it well, even you will be purified."
Naruto gritted his teeth. "Is there no other way?"
"Yes." Sasuke suddenly said, "Let me do it."
"You?" Naruto looked at him doubtfully.
Rinnegan of Sasuke started spinning. "Rinnegan has the ability to purify the soul. Although it consumes a lot of money, it is safer than Tailed Beast Bomb."
"Then I'll leave it to you!"
Sasuke took a deep breath and put his hands together. "Rinnegan·Six Paths Power·Soul purification!"
Intense white light erupted from his body, covering the entire area. The ghosts howled in pain in the white light, and their bodies gradually dissipated.
"It works!" Mina shouted excitedly.
But Sasuke's face is getting paler and paler, obviously he has consumed a lot of money.
"Hold on!" Naruto hurriedly stepped forward to support him.
Finally, all the evil ghosts were purified. Sasuke also fainted because Chakra was exhausted.
"Sasuke!" Everyone gathered around.
"He's fine, he just consumed too much." Karin breathed a sigh of relief after checking, "Just rest for a few days and he'll be fine."
Looking at those men in black, they had been frightened out of their wits by the ghosts and had long since fled without a trace.
"It seems that our reconstruction plan has been leaked." Nagato said worriedly, "There will be more trouble coming to our door in the future."
"When soldiers come, they will be blocked, and when water comes, soil will cover them up." Naruto helped Sasuke, "Since you have decided to do something, you are not afraid of any obstruction."
Three days later, Sasuke finally woke up. He opened his eyes and found himself lying in a simple tent, with Naruto lying next to him snoring.
"This guy..." Sasuke shook his head helplessly and reached out to push Naruto.
"Um...Sasuke?" Naruto opened his eyes drowsily, "You're awake? Great!"
"How long have I been asleep?"
"Three days." Naruto rubbed his eyes, "Karin said that your Chakra has been used up too much and needs a good rest."
Sasuke propped up his body and sat up, feeling a little dizzy. "Where are the remnants of Gen?"
"Run away." Naruto curled his lips, "I was scared to death by the ghost. I probably won't dare to come back again in a short time."
"It won't be that simple." Sasuke frowned, "Since they know we are here, they will definitely find ways to obstruct us."
There were footsteps outside the tent, and Nagato opened the curtain and walked in.
"Just wake up." The old man said with a happy expression on his face, "Your purification technique that day was very powerful. It cleared away a lot of the resentment accumulated for twenty years."
"It's just treating the symptoms but not the root cause." Sasuke shook his head, "The fundamental problem has not been solved yet."
"So we have to speed up the progress." Nagato said, "While the resentment is weakened, complete Sealing Array's arrangements as soon as possible."
The three people walked out of the tent and found that everyone else was busy. Mina and Karin were sorting out Fuinjutsu's information, and Uzumaki and others were cleaning up the site.
"Sasuke!" Karin saw him, a trace of concern flashed in his eyes, "Are you okay?"
"It's okay." Sasuke nodded, "How are the preparations for Sealing Array going?"
"Half of it is done." Nagato pointed to the open space not far away, "Look there."
Sasuke looked in the direction he pointed and found that complex Runes patterns had been carved on the ground. Those Runes were sparkling, obviously injected with a large amount of Chakra.
"The scale of this Sealing Array is larger than I imagined." Sasuke walked closer and observed carefully, "The coverage range is at least one kilometer."
"It must be so big." Nagato explained, "Land of Whirlpools's resentment is distributed throughout the land, and Sealing Array in a small area will not work at all."
"The amount of Chakra required will be staggering." Sasuke calculated it, "I'm afraid it won't be enough for just a few of us."
"I have already considered this." Nagato smiled mysteriously, "Come with me, I will show you something."
He led everyone to the back of the hillside. There was a cave covered with vines, which looked very inconspicuous.
"What is this place?" Naruto asked curiously.
"Chakra Repository of Land of Whirlpools." Nagato lifted the vines to reveal the hole, "Clan Head stored a large amount of Chakra here in order to deal with emergencies."
The interior of the cave is more spacious than expected, and the walls are inlaid with dozens of glowing crystal balls. Each crystal ball contains rich Chakra.
"These are..." Karin looked at the scene in front of him in shock.
"The Chakra left by Clan Head of all generations." Nagato's voice was full of respect, "They will seal their Chakra in these crystals before they die, leaving precious wealth for future generations."
