"Wow!"
The thick black oilcloth was torn off by several Grass Ninjas.
Revealing the true appearance of the object underneath.
A suffocatingly huge cubic box that was as black as ink.
The surface of the box is not smooth, but is engraved with four reliefs of Demon Gods with different faces.
They surround the box and are so lifelike that even if you just look at them, you can feel a soul-devouring ferocious aura.
The entire box exudes a texture that is neither gold nor wood, but extremely heavy. What's even more strange is that it seems to absorb the surrounding light, making the light wherever it is dimmed.
It is the legendary Ninja Tools, Box of Ultimate Bliss.
Seeing this box, there was no surprise on Naruto's face.
"Heh."
He sneered softly, and his voice passed down clearly.
They gave up evacuating civilians and possible negotiations, and instead chose to move out the "Divine Artifact" that was at the bottom of the box and was rumored to have destructive power in an attempt to make a last ditch effort.
Sure enough, we still made it this far.
Look at Kusagakure, they are all bloody enough to fight with powerful enemies. Fortunately, those old bones from the Hyuga Clan are dead.
Before deciding to take action against Kusagakure, Naruto naturally did enough intelligence homework.
Regarding the legend of Box of Ultimate Bliss, Naruto also knows something about it.
It is said that this box is one of the Ninja Tools left by Sage of Six Paths.
Its cabinet structure is an unusual craftsmanship and incorporates the extremely advanced Yin-Yang Release principle.
It is said that a large amount of Chakra is needed to realize the wish, but no one actually realizes the wish. There is also a Monster named "Enlightenment" sealed inside.
It is said that this thing passed from Warring States Period to Hashirama Senju.
Naruto also specifically asked Hashirama Senju about Box of Ultimate Bliss.
Hashirama's reaction at that time was very interesting.
He scratched the back of his head and tried to remember for a long time before he said uncertainly, "Oh, that dark box... it seems like there is something like this. Did you pick it up when you were cleaning up the battlefield or exploring? I can't remember clearly."
He frowned, with a somewhat disgusted expression on his face, "I feel like that thing is very sinister, and the smell it emits is very uncomfortable.
I always feel that it has nothing to do with the Sage of Six Paths in myths and legends, but more like the product of some Evil God or an ancient evil demon, which is unlucky.
So... I just lost it.
Where was it thrown? Is it a cave? Or by the river? Then I sealed it with Wood Release."
Hashirama said it in an understatement, as if what was thrown away was not a legendary taboo Ninja Tools, but an old piece of furniture that I didn't like.
Naruto was a little speechless at the time, but it was also in line with Hashirama's bold and uninhibited style of acting by intuition.
He instinctively rejected the evil spirit of the box and thought that keeping it might be a disaster, so he disposed of it casually.
"For Kusagakure, enter Box of Ultimate Bliss! Let Box of Ultimate Bliss realize our wish to destroy the powerful enemy!"
Tiger-Head Elder raised his arms and called out.
At the moment when the words Tiger-Head Elder "Destroy powerful enemies" just fell.
On the top of the hill, the Golden Nine-Tails, which seemed to be integrated with the mountains, and the Crimson Beast Eyes that had been half-open and half-closed, looking down coldly, suddenly opened wide!
There is only pure, destructive will in it.
He didn't give Grass Ninjas any time to react or take any further action.
"Roar!"
A beast roar that shook the world instantly overwhelmed all the noise in front of Kusagakure.
At the same time, Nine-Tails's huge head tilted back slightly, and its mouth suddenly opened.
The red and blue Chakra condensed into an energy ball and formed instantly in its mouth.
It didn't have much energy storage and almost no warning, but the terrifying Chakra fluctuations contained in that energy ball made the space distort and tremble, making all Grass Ninja souls who saw it tremble!
Tailed Beast Bomb!
"Whoops!"
The dark energy ball broke away from the huge mouth of Nine-Tails, and did not shoot at the Ninja gathered at the entrance of the village, nor at the conspicuous Box of Ultimate Bliss. Instead, it drew a hopelessly straight trajectory, with a scream that ripped through the air, and flew straight in the direction of Kusagakure!
"No!"
The roar of Tiger-Head Elder and the screams of other Elder were instantly drowned in the sky-piercing roar of Tailed Beast Bomb.
The confusion, fear, and doubt on the faces of those Grass Ninjas who gathered at the entrance of the village all solidified at the moment when Tailed Beast Bomb flew over their heads and shot toward the village, and then transformed into an extreme, indescribable horror and despair!
Their eyes could not help but follow the trajectory of the ball of death.
Time seemed to be stretched out.
They saw the dark energy ball, like Meteorite, landing accurately next to the village.
Then, the energy ball landed and did not explode immediately.
It first shrank inwards, as if it sucked in the surrounding light, sound and even space, forming a brief, palpitating black hole of silence.
The next second...
Boom!
A loud noise that cannot be described in any known words, accompanied by a blazing white light that is dazzling enough to burn the retina, suddenly erupts!
The shrinking energy, centered on the impact point, formed a perfect hemisphere, silently but violently expanding and spreading outward rapidly.
Everything was instantly vaporized, decomposed, and turned into the most primitive dust and energy turbulence in the destructive white light and shock wave!
No Flames, no thick smoke, only the purest and most complete annihilation!
The expanding white hemisphere of light was like the huge mouth of Death God. In less than a breath, it easily enveloped, swallowed, and then wiped out an area equivalent to Kusagakure.
The light dissipated, and what was left next to Kusagakure was a huge, speechless, bottomless hemispherical pit with smooth edges like a mirror!
The high temperature and distorted Chakra still remains in the pit, and deformed hot air rises in curls.
Dead silence.
In the open space at the entrance of the village, there was a silence that was colder than death.
Grass Ninja's mouth opened unconsciously, but no sound came out. Only a "whoosh" sound like air leakage came from his throat.
Their bodies were shaking violently and uncontrollably, like fallen leaves in the autumn wind.
Is this the power of...Tailed Beast?
Is this... Konoha Sixth Hokage of Konoha?
If... if that shot of Tailed Beast Bomb was aimed not at the side of the village, but at the center of Kusagakure...
Does that mean that... the entire Kusagakure, together with all the people inside who were unable to evacuate in time, will disappear in an instant just like the area just now?
This thought made their whole bodies feel cold, and their souls seemed to be frozen.
At this moment, on the hill, the figure of Golden moved again.
Naruto Uzumaki, slowly raised his right hand.
His movements were not fast, but they carried an overwhelming majesty that could determine life or death.
He looked down at the Grass Ninja below like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, his eyes were cold, and his voice clearly spread to every Corner, without the slightest emotion, but more intimidating than any roar:
"Now, do you still think we are joking with you?"
His eyes swept over the Elder who were slumped on the ground with their masks crooked, and the middle Genin whose faces were ashen.
Finally, he landed on Box of Ultimate Bliss, who still exuded an evil aura, with a trace of undisguised disgust flashing in his eyes.
"Hand over that evil box, as well as all Elder and its core members who participated in planning to activate it and tried to use fellow villager Ninja as Sacrifice."
"The rest who are willing to surrender, lay down their weapons and accept supervision."
"This is the last chance."
He paused, and his tone suddenly worsened, like the hammer of the final judgment:
"If you don't surrender..."
As if to confirm his words, the huge head of the complete Nine-Tails was raised again, and in the fox's mouth, the violent Chakra began to gather and compress crazily again!
A Tailed Beast Bomb is rapidly taking shape at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The destructive energy fluctuations even made the surrounding air buzz with an overwhelming buzz!
Naruto pointed at the gathering Tailed Beast Bomb and pronounced the sentence in a cold voice:
"The target of the next shot of Tailed Beast Bomb is... the center of Kusagakure."
The moment the voice fell, the Tailed Beast Bomb in Nine-Tails's mouth had already condensed into shape, and the dark light was erratic, aiming at Kusagakure's defenseless core area like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
