Even Souls Could Be Seen Through

The surrounding ninja saw only a giant gray dragon sweep across the sky.

But to the sensory ninja, it was no ordinary jutsu.

"It's a soul attack!"

A Konoha Ninja's expression changed drastically.

"It has no physical form! Jutsu defenses can't stop it!"

Kasumi Uchiha tightened her grip on her long blade.

"Clan Leader, watch out!"

The Human Path's new ability, Rinnegan Soul-Seizing, targeted the soul rather than the body.

Physical jutsu were completely useless against it.

Even a secret technique like Existence-Nonexistence Shift, which could alter what was real and illusory, would be countered by this power.

The moment the gray dragon touched an ordinary ninja, their soul would sink into oblivion.

Even Ren felt threatened by this move.

The nearby ninja saw only the gray dragon lunging at Ren, but the sensory ninja could clearly sense the bitterly cold soul power gathered within it.

"Clan Leader!"

Kasumi Uchiha's expression changed.

"That's no ordinary attack!"

"I know."

Ren stood his ground, eyes fixed on the approaching Soul Dragon.

The gray Soul Dragon opened its enormous jaws. Its sharp teeth came within a hair's breadth of his body.

In that instant, Ren formed hand seals.

"Uchiha Forbidden Technique."

"Uchiha's Majesty!"

Hum!

An invisible wave burst outward from Ren.

A pair of enormous eyes appeared out of thin air behind his head.

Intricate patterns filled those eyes. Three black tomoe linked together, forming a chilling Mangekyō design.

The eyes remained closed as they hovered behind Ren, like a god that had slept for countless ages.

Then they slowly opened.

Boom!

A pressure that pierced straight into the soul swept across the battlefield.

There was no raging Chakra, no violent explosion.

Yet every soul present shuddered instinctively.

The falling rain froze.

The sound of the wind vanished.
