A strange chakra radiated from the black scroll, and the surrounding air grew oppressive.
The leader of the black-clad men wore a crazed grin. "Since you refuse to move aside, I'll just have to send all of you to your deaths! Ninjutsu: Undead Summoning Technique!"
As his words fell, the ground began to quake violently. Streams of black mist rose from beneath the earth, and within them, many grotesque undead figures vaguely appeared.
