The situation had gone beyond Kazuhiko's expectations.
He didn't know whether Jashin had responded to his followers.
He only knew he had to strike first.
He needed to kill the last two Jashin followers as soon as possible, then get away from this Blood Altar.
"Gaze of Jashin," "Reward of Jashin"—just hearing those names was terrifying.

Immortality!
The familiar sight instantly brought Hidan to mind.
Death Controlling Possessed Blood and immortality were the abilities Hidan had gained through the Jashin Cult's sacrificial experiments.
Without immortality, Jutsu: Death Controlling Blood would be a joke.
"Since that's the
