"It's them!!"
The ninja looked up, their eyes fixed on the four figures.
"Clear the area!"
"Your bombs weren't thorough enough, Deidara!"
Danzo spoke coldly.
"They only exploded on the outskirts of Konoha. Getting results like this was already pretty good!"
Deidara pursed his lips as he spoke.
"Weakness is the original sin!"
Danzo said coldly.
Then he slowly raised both hands, spreading his fingers.
By then, the surrounding Konoha ninja had also reacted. Their eyes blazed with fury as they charged forward, kunai in hand, roaring.
"Kill them!"
"Invaders! These bastards are the invaders!"
"Doesn't that man look like our former elder, Danzo?"
Several voices rang out.
Just then—
Smack!
Danzo jolted both hands, unleashing an invisible repulsive force that swept out in every direction.
"Almighty Push!!!"
In an instant, the violent repulsive force surged outward in waves, slamming into the charging ninja.
"Aaah!"
Screams rang out one after another. Blood sprayed as people were hurled backward, their arms and legs snapping.
Everyone who had charged forward was blasted away by the repulsive force. They hit the ground hard and lay motionless, their lives slowly slipping away.
"I lost all attachment to this land long ago."
"Ashes to ashes, dust to dust!"
"Let everything perish!"
Murmuring, Danzo slowly rose into the air until he hovered beneath the sun.
He spread the fingers of both hands and aimed them downward.
At the sight, Tobi's pupils contracted behind his spiral-patterned mask.
"Has this bastard gone mad? He's actually using that move!!"
His figure flashed, and he hurriedly dashed into the distance.
Deidara and Hidan also hastily fled when they saw what was happening.
Far away, beneath the rubble, a disheveled Tsunade pushed aside the heavy debris pinning her down. Elsewhere, Kakashi, Guy, and the others struggled to lift chunks of wood
