Rasa was somewhat dazed when he heard Jing Xiu's question.
Wasn't this kid blind?
As that thought crossed his mind, he heard Jing Xiu's next words: "Actually, my surname is Uchiha."
The eerie, scarlet three-tomoe eyes slowly spun, meeting Rasa's incredulous gaze head-on.
"Genjutsu: Purgatory of Ice and Fire!"
Rasa was hailed as Sunagakure's strongest ninja, and after the Third Kazekage's mysterious disappearance, he had been entrusted with leadership in a time of crisis.
He had shouldered the burden of Sunagakure.
All along, he had been Sunagakure's symbol.
His kekkei genkai, Magnet Release: Gold Dust, was not only one of Sunagakure's primary sources of income, but also the embodiment of the Will of Sand.
"Grains of sand unite to build a tower; countless people unite as one!"
As powerful as Rasa was, the instant he met Jing Xiu's eyes, he knew he had fallen into Jing Xiu's trap.
Everything happened too quickly. Rasa's vision merely blurred before he fell into the chain of genjutsu Jing Xiu had laid.
What the hell is this? This must be genjutsu! It's so hot!
Rasa roared inwardly.
He looked around and saw nothing but a boundless sea of blazing flames.
The fire burning his body seemed ready to devour everything, and the searing flames scorched his skin with pain.
He could even smell something burning.
Rasa gritted his teeth and used chakra to protect his body, struggling to find a way out of the sea of flames.
After an immense effort, he finally found a gap where the flames were weaker.
Without time to think, Rasa leaped through it and finally escaped the scorching sea of fire.
Yet before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he felt an extraordinary chill.
So cold! Am I still in the genjutsu world? That can't be possible!
