" Miniature Tailed Beast Bomb Trial Version. Please enjoy."
A cold, slightly mocking voice came from the mouth of the Uchiha guard captain.
On his raised right hand, the gauntlet of the Tengu Armor cracked open. A miniature cannon, flashing an ominous red light, was already aimed at Hidan, whose face was contorted with extreme rage in Hidan!
"Die! Die!"
Hidan's eyes were fixed on the captain's contemptuous gaze. He poured all his Chakra and faith in the Jashin into the blood-red Triple-Bladed Scythe in his hand, vowing to cleave this arrogant bastard and the damned ground beneath his feet in two!
However, just as his scythe was less than three meters from the captain's head...
Buzz!
A faint, almost negligible hum of energy rang out.
A red-black energy ray, only the thickness of a finger and extremely condensed, shot out suddenly from the miniature cannon's muzzle with a speed that surpassed the reaction time of the visual nerves!
There was no earth-shattering explosion, no devastating force.
The ray struck Hidan's chest with perfect precision, landing lightly on his chest.
Time seemed to slow down at this moment.
Kakuzu afar, Kakuzu's eyes, wide with horror, clearly saw everything that followed.
Hidan's frantically charging body suddenly froze in mid-air.
Immediately afterwards, centered on the small spot on his chest where the ray had struck, spiderweb-like blood-red cracks instantly covered his entire body!
His expression shifted from manic anger to utter astonishment, then to utter bewilderment.
He lowered his head, looking at his body, which resembled shattered porcelain.
He tried to say something, but before he could utter a single syllable...
boom!
The destructive energy that had been accumulating within him finally erupted completely at this moment!
A red and black energy beam, even more condensed and violent than the main cannon of " Light of Divine Punishment " from before, shot into the sky centered on Hidan's body!
That terrifying energy was not a simple impact, but an absolute destruction that completely decomposed and annihilated at the cellular and atomic levels!
"Aaaaaaah!"
The piercing scream, so shrill it was almost inhuman, lasted for less than 0.1 seconds before abruptly stopping.
Hidan's entire upper body, along with his massive scythe, instantly turned into primordial particles within the pillar of light, leaving not even a trace of ash behind!
The beam of light came quickly and went quickly.
When the energy dissipated, only Hidan's mangled lower body remained, falling helplessly from mid-air like Hidan with a broken string. With a thud, he crashed onto the glassy ground, splattering a pool of foul-smelling blood.
Kakuzu's body froze on the spot, his mind blank.
He looked at the two legs that were still twitching slightly, and then at the Uchiha guards in the distance who hadn't even changed their posture. A chill that went deep into his bones made his body, which was made up of countless black lines, tremble violently.
What was that just now?
That's definitely not Ninjutsu!
He had only ever heard of energy attacks with that level of power condensed in the legendary First Hokage's " Sage Art: Ultra-Big Ball Rasengan "!
But now, this level of attack was casually unleashed by an ordinary Uchiha Mangekyō Sharingan, as if it were nothing more than eating and drinking?
And judging from that name... " Miniature Tailed Beast Bomb Trial Version "?
What the hell is this thing?!
Could it be that in this Divine Kingdom, even strategic weapons like the Tailed Beast Bomb have been mass-produced and equipped on the wristbands of every soldier?!
The moment this thought crossed his mind, Kakuzu felt a fear that emanated from the depths of his soul.
This is no longer a battle.
This is a dimensional reduction attack!
It's like a warrior from the era of cold weapons facing a space fleet equipped with interstellar warships!
run!
We must run immediately!
This task is simply beyond human capability! Ten billion? Even a trillion wouldn't buy back your life!
This was the only thought in Kakuzu's mind.
However, just as he was about to desperately use Earth Release is a technique used in Chinese fantasy novels) to escape underground, something even more chilling happened.
"Asshole..."
A faint voice, filled with endless resentment, rang out from the mangled, bloody remains.
All that could be Hidan was Hidan's half-dead body, with countless granulations wriggling and growing at a visible speed from the wound!
Bones, meridians, internal organs, muscles, skin...
Like biological evolution on fast-forward, in less than ten seconds, an unharmed Hidan, shirtless, stood up from the ground again!
His face was as pale as paper, his body trembled uncontrollably from extreme pain and rage, and his purplish-red eyes were filled with bloodshot veins and madness.
"Unforgivable... Unforgivable... How dare you... How dare you do such a thing to me... Lord Jashin... Lord Jashin will never let you get away with this!"
Hidan roared hoarsely. He didn't even have time to pick up the scythe that had fallen nearby before he charged at the Uchiha guards like a madman again!
"Oh? You're recovering pretty quickly."
The Uchiha, looked at Hidan at him again. Instead of being surprised, he showed a hint of interest on his face.
He raised his hand and lazily spoke into the communicator, "Master, make a note. Target ' Hidan,' after taking a 65% power ' Miniature Tailed Beast Bomb ' attack, his body tissues were completely vaporized, but his soul has a special link with some unknown energy entity, allowing him to complete a non-consumable physical reconstruction within 11.7 seconds. It is recommended that this characteristic be listed as an A-level research topic."
"Received. Data recorded. The project ' Jashin and Soul Link' has been created, priority adjusted to A-level. Please capture complete living samples if possible," the mainframe Amaterasu's cold, electronic female voice responded.
"Did you hear that, you guys?" The captain lowered his hand, grinning at his teammates behind him. " Lord Orochimaru has a new toy. Don't just stand there, stretch your muscles, and take down these two precious darlings."
"Yes, Captain!"
The Uchiha guards behind him echoed in unison, their faces showing excited expressions of eager anticipation.
The way they looked at Hidan and Kakuzu was like a cat looking at two mice that had been cornered.
You bastards!
Hidan felt like his lungs were about to explode with rage as he listened to their undisguised conversation!
Toys? Research materials?
He, the dignified representative of the Jashin Cult, the immortal Hidan, was actually used as experimental material by these guys?!
"I will twist your heads off one by one! And offer them as the best sacrifice to the Lord Jashin!"
Hidan roared and charged at the captain with his bare hands, throwing a punch!
However, the captain merely scoffed dismissively.
He didn't even raise his hand; it was just a thought.
Buzz!
A pale blue, hexagonal energy shield made of pure Chakra instantly unfolded before him!
Bang!
Hidan's fist, powerful enough to shatter rocks, slammed into the shield, yet it didn't even cause a ripple.
On the contrary, he himself was so shocked by the huge recoil that his arm went numb and he stumbled back several steps!
"What?!" Hidan was completely dumbfounded.
"You can't even break through Individual AT Field, and you dare to shout and yell within our Divine Kingdom?"
The captain shook his head, a look of extreme disappointment on his face.
"Too weak, they're just wasting our time."
He winked at one of his teammates, "Let's finish this quickly, use 'that' (the method), don't keep Lord Gen'yō waiting."
"Hehe, okay, Captain!"
The team member rubbed his hands excitedly and took out a black metal sphere the size of a basketball from his equipment bag. The surface of the sphere was engraved with dense Sealing Jutsu, and its center shimmered with a deep purple light, emanating a terrifying gravitational pull that made one's soul tremble.
"Try Lord Orochimaru's latest invention, the ' Portable Chibaku Tensei Puppet,' you immortal guinea pig."
The team member sneered, flicked his finger, and threw the black metal ball in his hand directly above Hidan's head!
Buzz!
The black sphere spun in mid-air, and the Sealing Jutsu on its surface instantly dissipated!
"What the hell is this...?" Hidan was stunned for a moment.
Before the words were even finished, an irresistible, terrifying gravitational force that surged exponentially erupted from the black sphere!
"Aaaaaah!"
Hidan didn't even have time to react before he was pulled into the air by the gravitational force. The surrounding glassy rubble, debris, and even distant giant rocks all converged on the black sphere like rivers flowing into the sea, slamming into Hidan layer by layer, squeezing and sealing him tightly at the very core!
In just a few breaths, a huge rock sphere with a diameter of tens of meters was suspended in mid-air!
"Damn it! Hidan, that idiot!"
Hidden in the distance, Kakuzu was terrified upon seeing this. These gatekeepers not only possessed firepower capable of instantly killing them, but they could also casually toss out such terrifying sealing equipment comparable to the Rinnegan's eye techniques?!
What's the point of fighting?!
" Earth Grudge Fear!"
Kakuzu hold back any longer. The clothes on his back suddenly ripped apart, and countless black lines surged out like tentacles, grabbing the corpses of the unfortunate merchants who had just been caught in the blast and instantly taking their hearts to fill the void in his own life core.
Four masked monsters split off from his back. He prepared to use his strongest combination Ninjutsu to blast a bloody path, even if it meant serious injury, he had to escape from this hellhole!
However, just as he was about to form the Hand Seals...
The sky suddenly darkened.
It wasn't just dark clouds obscuring the sun; it was a suffocating, distorted space where even light was swallowed up!
Kakuzu abruptly raised his head. His eerie green eyes instantly contracted to their limit. A tremor originating from the deepest part of his soul caused all five hearts within him to stop beating simultaneously!
What did he see?
Above the Divine Kingdom's barrier, the once azure sky seemed to have been torn apart by an invisible giant hand. From within that enormous void rift, a colossal hand, composed entirely of dazzling golden crystal and beyond description, slowly emerged and crashed down upon their location!
That was the hand of God!
