When the King of the Land of the Moon heard the other party's tone, tears immediately streamed down his face.

"It is not my fault."

"It was Shabadaba who incited me."

"Do not kill me; the Land of the Moon can become a vassal state of the Land of Whirlpools, and we will pay you a tribute of 10 million ryo every year."

Shabadaba looked at the King's disgusting appearance and stepped forward to kick him away.

"Uzukage, I tell you, your caravan is still in our hands, so spare us."

"I guarantee your caravan will return safely."

Upon hearing this, the King of the Land of the Moon immediately rushed forward to grab Shabadaba.

"Yes, yes, yes, your caravan is in our hands, Shabadaba, take me with you!"

Hearing the other party use the lives of the caravan as a threat, the aura of Uzumaki Shori grew even more imposing.

"Lord Uzukage, do not be threatened by them. Look, who is behind me?"

Uzumaki Sasuke walked in with the caravan.

The caravan members were still in relatively good spirits, but their bodies were covered in wounds, clearly having received special treatment from the Land of the Moon.

Upon seeing their Uzukage, the caravan members knelt down, tears streaming down their faces as they spoke.

"We are truly grateful that the Uzukage came to rescue us; we thought we were going to die in the Land of the Moon."

In recent years, the ninja world had been engaged in small-scale friction. The caravan had traveled throughout the entire ninja world and often saw caravans from other countries being hijacked and disappearing without a trace.

It turned out that after the other envoys left, Uzumaki Sasuke had stayed in the Land of the Moon to scout the situation of the caravan.

When the tank group attacked the Land of the Moon, the soldiers went to defend, and Uzumaki Sasuke took the opportunity to rescue the entire caravan.

Uzumaki Shori looked at the other party, waiting to see what they would say.

Shabadaba gritted his teeth as he looked at them, shocked that they had actually rescued the caravan, and shouted loudly.

"So what if you rescued the caravan! Do you know why we dared to make a move against you?"

"We have the Land of Lightning behind us; the Land of Lightning is backing us up."

Uzumaki Shori looked at Shabadaba with a sharp gaze, causing Shabadaba to take a step back in fear.

"We dared to strike the Land of Water, so why would we be afraid of the Land of Lightning?"

"Stand back, I will take him down myself."

Uzumaki Shori walked forward, activating Body Control as his muscles expanded.

Shabadaba swallowed hard. The Second Uzukage was a man who had truly built his illustrious reputation by using the Land of Water as a stepping stone.

I cannot be afraid of him. Get excited, get pumped up! The Ketsuryūgan embedded in his palm began to open, its pupil turning into a horizontal line.

The Uzumaki Clan possessed immense chakra and strong bodies.

He could use the most powerful Bloodline Limit of the Ketsuryūgan.

Uzumaki Shori moved swiftly, the ground exploding instantly as gravel flew everywhere, his muscles and chakra erupting with astonishing speed.

He reached Shabadaba in an instant, condensing chakra and throwing a punch directly at him.

Shabadaba extended his left hand to block, his arm bones creaking audibly as if they had fractured.

Shabadaba's face twisted in pain; how could the attack be so heavy? It felt as if a giant hammer had slammed down on him.

The Ketsuryūgan in his right palm unleashed a blood-style ninjutsu.

"Hypnosis Technique of the Bloodline Limit!"

The Ketsuryūgan emitted a red light, attempting to hypnotize Uzumaki Shori.

Uzumaki Shori felt his own chakra vibrate and show signs of spiraling out of control, so he immediately jumped backward to check what was happening.

Shabadaba launched a counterattack against the retreating Uzumaki Shori, rushing to his front and releasing the Bloodline Limit again to interfere with his chakra, attempting to detonate the human body through that interference.

Uzumaki Shori could only focus on controlling his own chakra again, only to be kicked down by the other party.

He used his own muscles to withstand the blow.

His chakra was actually out of his control, so he activated Body Control again, restoring his muscle state and doubling his chakra control.

His body's chakra was finally under control, allowing him to dodge the other party's attacks.

When the other party kicked over, he clenched his fist, condensed his chakra, grabbed the ankle with one hand, and struck the other party's abdomen with the other.

Shabadaba was sent flying by the punch, rolling across the ground several times.

He spat out a large mouthful of blood, letting out a painful wail.

It appeared he had suffered severe internal injuries.

The Ketsuryūgan can control the opponent's chakra to ignite and explode, why isn't it working?

Covering his mouth with his hand to catch the flowing blood, he stared fixedly at Uzumaki Shori.

He flung the blood from his hand into the air, and the Ketsuryūgan erupted with the Bloodline Limit once more, the blood launching directly through the air.

Uzumaki Shori mobilized his chakra and formed hand seals with both hands.

"Sealing Jutsu: Adamantine Sealing Chains!"

Five chains lashed out toward the blood in the air, but the moment the blood touched the chains, it detonated.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The force of the blood explosions was astonishing, knocking the chains aside.

Before Shabadaba could even react, he was sent flying by a single kick.

He slammed heavily into the wall of the hall, causing cracks to spiderweb across the surface.

"Damn you, go to hell!"

Shabadaba pulled out a shuriken and sliced his wrist, letting fresh blood flow out.

"Ketsuryūgan, turn all this blood into explosives!"

The fresh blood swirled from all directions, flying toward Uzumaki Shori.

However, Uzumaki Shori merely formed a seal with one hand, controlling the five Adamantine Sealing Chains as they whipped through the air, striking the incoming blood.

"Boom!"

The Adamantine Sealing Chains collided with the Ketsuryūgan blood explosives, creating an explosion that filled the entire throne room with thick smoke.

Shabadaba let out a low laugh and muttered to himself.

"This time, I'll definitely finish him off. The Ketsuryūgan is invincible."

He raised his hand, gazing intently at the Ketsuryūgan in his palm.

"Such a beautiful, crimson Ketsuryūgan."

The others had already exited the throne room to stand guard outside.

Only a few guard captains and the First Uzukage remained.

Uzumaki Sasuke sighed from the sidelines.

"Lord First, that blood-red eye... why does it look so much like the Ketsuryūgan from the Land of Water?"

"Both the Ketsuryūgan and the Sharingan possess powerful ocular prowess."

"The Ketsuryūgan and the Sharingan are both known as hypnotic eyes, capable of using ocular power to launch various genjutsu attacks."

"But there is one thing the Sharingan lacks: the Ketsuryūgan can turn people into living bombs and use blood as fuel to unleash all sorts of blood-based ninjutsu."

Uzumaki Sasuke sighed after hearing this.

"The power of the Ketsuryūgan is truly astonishing; it is worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as the Sharingan."

"With such power, Lord First, are you not worried about the safety of the Second?"

Uzumaki Sasuke asked from the side.

"Hahaha, the Ketsuryūgan's power is impressive, but it all depends on who is wielding it."

Uzumaki Ashina let out a hearty laugh.

"After the war in the Land of Water, even I am no longer certain of the extent of Uzumaki Shori's strength."

The smoke gradually began to clear.

Uzumaki Shori stood in place, completely unscathed.

The five Adamantine Sealing Chains danced idly behind his back.
