"Sōkyū!" Below, Pakura could not help crying out when she saw Sōkyū Hatake's astonishing move. Shock spread across her face, as though she had witnessed something inconceivable. Yet, in just an instant, she quickly drew back her small hands, which had been trembling slightly with panic, and regained her composure.

Thus, although Sōkyū Hatake's actions just now had indeed startled him, that surprise was soon replaced by the unwavering trust deep in his heart.

Under the impact of that utterly violent lightning power, the entire sky was instantly illuminated a stark white, as bright as day. Rolling thunderclouds
