"This place looks good."
Natsuki glanced around as he spoke.
There were no other Konoha or Amegakure ninja nearby.
"Let's begin."
Natsuki raised a hand as he spoke.
As his words fell, countless swords appeared around him and beneath his feet.
Seeing this, Nagato activated Shinra Tensei with a thought.
His Rinnegan pulsed, and an invisible repulsive force swept up the swords Natsuki had drawn from Unlimited Blade Works, sending them plummeting even faster.
