Sasuke swept a cold gaze over the people. He knew that showing mercy now would deal a massive blow to the entire government's prestige.
"Do it! Kill anyone who resists!"
"Sasuke!"
Naruto hurriedly tried to stop him. "Don't kill them. There are a lot of innocent people among them."
Sasuke did not answer. He activated his Mangekyō Sharingan and swept his gaze over them.
A red light flashed, and the monks stood rooted to the spot, clearly caught in a genjutsu.
Seeing that they could no longer resist, Sasuke beckoned to those behind him. "Take them all away!"
Hidden underground, Sasori watched the unsuspecting Military Police Force members, the corners of his mouth slowly lifting.
Sorry about this! Now it's my turn to act!
Sasori pressed his palms together. Invisible chakra threads emerged from the ground and attached themselves to the monks.
Compared with Sunagakure's Puppet Technique, Sasori's chakra threads were more concealed and powerful. Like his body, these chakra threads could deceive other people's self-awareness.
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
"Explosive Tag Flame Formation!"
"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"
"..."
The sudden change caught everyone off guard. They could only watch as members of the Military Police Force were struck by ninjutsu and killed.
"You have a death wish!"
Sasuke flew into a rage. He did not know how these people had broken free of his genjutsu. All he knew was that members of the Military Police Force had died before his eyes, and he wanted to kill.
Boom!
The purple Susanoo slammed a fist into the ground, smashing one monk into pulp, then continued swinging its long sword, slaughtering the monks.
"Sasuke, don't let your anger consume you!"
"Get out of my way! I know exactly what I'm doing!"
"Snap out of it! These people are still under genjutsu.
