Silence.
A silence like death!
Across the entire desert, apart from the sound of the wind blowing, there was nothing else!
And the Sand Shinobi watching from the side were all choked as if they had something stuck in their throats, frozen stiff, their faces pale, and sweat pouring down like rain!
They had just felt "great advantage," but at this moment, they were completely stunned.
W-what's going on?
Aren't the Anbu ninjas the elites of Sunagakure...
Why are even elite ninjas being instantly killed?
This is too outrageous, right?
Everyone looked up, gazing at the figure of the young man in the sky, filled with despair and fear.
However, At this moment, no one knew that.
In the darkness far away, two figures were also lurking.
They were the two who came to Sunagakure with Chen Xiaoxi—Juzo Biwa and Itachi Uchiha.
At this moment, both of them looked a little stunned.
The visual impact of that single, unsealed golden lightning jutsu was undoubtedly immense, especially in the dark night sky.
The moment it was released, it seemed to turn the entire desert and sky golden...
The key was that not only was the destructive power astonishing, but it was also so persistent, which was simply outrageous!
After a long while, a drop of cold sweat trickled down Juzo Biwa's forehead. His expression was strange as he chuckled, looked at Itachi Uchiha beside him, and lowered his voice:
"Itachi, this powerful golden lightning jutsu... have you ever seen it?"
"..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Itachi Uchiha immediately withdrew his gaze. After a long silence, he solemnly shook his head and said:
"...No, I've never seen anything like it.
"I suppose this must be the ninjutsu that Kakuzu once mentioned, hidden within Senior Chen Xiaoxi's Golden Eyes Eye of the Tyrant..."
"The power is indeed incredible."
Although Itachi's tone was calm, his expression was exceptionally solemn.
It even carried a hint of apprehension.
And at this moment, Chen Xiaoxi, standing in the air, slowly retracted his finger, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.
The Kido, infused with all his Reiatsu, was indeed extraordinarily powerful.
Even this Thunder Roar Cannon, ranked 63rd in the sequence, when combined with the suppression of Reiatsu, could easily deal with ordinary Sand Jonin without chanting the incantation...
He wondered if it was because the power of Kido was too strong, or if the Sand Shinobi were simply too weak.
Just as Chen Xiaoxi was pondering, a prompt sound echoed in his mind.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host! Side mission accomplished!"
"Defeat 30 Sand Village Chunin (30/30), completed! Reward: Reiatsu +1, Kido Experience +5, Mall Points +200!"
"Defeat 10 Sand Village Jonin (10/10), completed! Reward: Reiatsu +10, Kido Experience +60, Mall Points +300!"
As the prompt faded, Chen Xiaoxi slightly raised an eyebrow, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes.
Before coming, he had worried that Sunagakure wouldn't have enough people for him to fight, but he hadn't expected that the previous Pale Blue Fire Crash and the recent Thunder Roar Cannon would have completed it all. That was great.
So, next, he only needed to defeat the Kazekage and the Jinchuriki, and this mission would be basically complete.
Thinking of this, Chen Xiaoxi slowly descended from the sky and walked directly towards the people of Sunagakure.
His steps were leisurely, his expression relaxed, not at all like an invader, but rather like strolling in a leisurely manner.
"?"
Seeing this scene, all the Sand Shinobi's faces changed drastically. They looked at Chen Xiaoxi, who was approaching, with horror and fear.
At this moment, from somewhere, a Sand Shinobi suddenly jumped out.
While raising his ninja tool, he trembled and struck a defensive pose, forcing himself to calm down as he shouted with a tremor:
"Stop... Stop!"
"Don't come any closer... Rain Village ninja!"
"Are you... are you declaring war on our Land of Wind's Sunagakure?"
"O-our Lord Rasa, the Kazekage, will absolutely never forgive you!"
He shouted loudly, though his tone was fierce only in appearance, his trembling voice clearly betraying his terror.
It was obvious that he was trying to use the prestige of the Kazekage, Rasa, to intimidate Chen Xiaoxi.
However, upon hearing this, Chen Xiaoxi stopped in his tracks exactly two meters away from them.
...Eh?
Seeing this, many of the Sunagakure ninja were momentarily stunned.
Hm... did it work?
Could this guy... actually be afraid of our Lord Rasa, the Kazekage?
Realizing this possibility, a faint glimmer of hope suddenly rose in their hearts.
But just then, Chen Xiaoxi suddenly curled his lips, looked at the Sunagakure group before him, and said with a gentle smile:
"Fine, then I won't advance any further."
"Go and notify your Fourth Kazekage, Rasa—"
"Tell him to hurry up and come out to get beaten."
"...Huh?"
Hearing this, all the Sunagakure ninja were completely dumbfounded.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
In the center of Sunagakure, inside the Kazekage's office, Rasa was gazing at a map of the Ninja World with a solemn expression, deliberating on the issue of invading Amegakure.
Although he had just heard the sound of an explosion, he didn't pay it any mind. He had great confidence in the strength of his Anbu squads.
But just then, a panicked Sunagakure ninja suddenly rushed in and slammed his hands onto the desk with a loud thud!
His face was deathly pale as he looked at Rasa and stammered:
"B-bad news... Lord Kazekage!"
"The two Anbu squads you just dispatched... have been defeated by the enemy..."
"!"
Rasa's movements froze instantly!
"...What did you say?"
Before the man could react, Rasa furrowed his brows deeply, his expression turning incredibly grim as he said:
"A total of fourteen Anbu ninja were deployed, and they were defeated in such a short amount of time?"
"Damn it! Exactly how many enemies came?"
"..."
Hearing this, the ninja's expression became even more miserable than if he were crying. After hesitating for a long time, he spoke with a bitter face:
"J-just one."
"From start to finish, it seems there was only him..."
"Hm?"
As soon as the words fell, Rasa was instantly bewildered, ten thousand question marks appearing in his mind simultaneously.
Just one...
Are you kidding me?
One person wiped out fourteen Anbu in such a short time?
Did Hanzo come himself?
No... that's not right!
If it were that old guy Hanzo, his poison gas would have been recognized long ago...
In other words, it was very likely a hidden figure from Amegakure!
Realizing this, Rasa gritted his teeth and stood up abruptly.
