"Roar--"
Accompanied by a piercing roar.
The Nine-Tails ' figure instantly transformed into a red streak, shooting straight ahead.
His pupils contracted rapidly, and Pain instantly raised his hand.
Almighty Push--
The sound effects echoed throughout the mountains and forests.
The next instant, a white halo carrying repulsive force spread wildly outward from Pain's center.
The gale, driven by repulsive force, surged wildly outwards, whipping up large swaths of sand and dust.
Even the ground cracked inch by inch under the influence of the repulsive force.
However, none of this seemed to be able to stop that scarlet figure.
Despite the repulsive force, the Nine-Tails walked forward step by step and finally stopped in front of Pain.
"How... is this possible?!"
Pain's face trembled violently as he stared intently at the figure looking down at him.
He seemed unable to comprehend how any being could so forcefully break through his Almighty Push.
However, the only response he received was a claw that slowly rose.
"Bang!"
Pain was sent flying.
Without letting him go, the chubby Nine-Tails stomped on the ground and chased after him.
Dust and sand flew everywhere, and gravel splashed up.
Amidst the thunderous roar, the two sides exchanged several rapid blows.
"Hahaha, can you feel it now? This pain! Do you still say that people can understand each other?"
Seemingly having recovered, Pain laughed wildly in the air, mocking Naruto.
However, it was clear that the out-of-control Nine-Tails did not respond to him rationally.
It opened its mouth, and a white Tailed Beast Ball quickly took shape above its mouth.
The next moment.
"Boom--"
A giant sphere of light is forming in the mountain valley...
"Tsk, Han Ling is one thing, but that Calamity Beast you picked up, is its acting this good too?" Halfway up the mountain, Zhou Zhenguo asked with great interest, watching the battle between the man and the beast below.
"..."
Shen Heng fell silent for a moment, looking down at the screen, unsure how to respond.
If you say the Stone performed well, then it was indeed quite good; but if you say it was exceptionally good, then it was just so-so.
After all, there's only one line of dialogue; the rest is just fighting. What can you possibly learn from that?
However, these two parts happen to fit quite well with the Stone, especially the line spoken upon its appearance...
"Huh? What? You don't know either?" Receiving no response, Zhou Zhenguo looked over with a slight grin.
"It's probably because Han Ling Hinata Han Ling, right?" Shen Heng picked out the first part of the reason.
"Oh?"
Zhou Zhenguo responded thoughtfully, then looked down again.
He thought for a moment and asked:
"Because Han Ling's character got beaten up in the earlier part of the story?"
"Mm." Shen Heng nodded.
"If you went up there and got hit, would it be this angry?" Zhou Zhenguo asked with great interest.
"Probably not!" Shen Heng said without much hesitation.
"You little brat, are you that shameless? Didn't you pick this guy up?" Zhou Zhenguo looked at Shen Heng with a disgruntled expression.
"..."
Shen Heng was speechless and did not reply.
Zhou Zhenguo smiled without any attempt to hide it.
There aren't many opportunities to mock this kid!... He thought to himself, then turned his gaze back to the scene below.
The battle between the Nine-Tails and Pain intensified, with smoke and dust filling most of the valley and rocks flying through it like bullets.
"Tsk, it's great to have martial artists now. We don't even need special effects for this kind of scene!" Halfway up the mountain, Zhou Zhenguo looked at the spreading smoke below with a smile.
"Indeed!" Li Boyuan nodded in agreement.
Both of them watched the battle below with an expression of appreciation.
Shen Heng was also looking down.
However, he was trying his best to ignore the sounds around him.
"No, pfft--!"
"I can let the rest go, but I really can't hold back this!"
"Here comes Pain, the calisthenics gymnast..."
"Although I know that sitcoms should aim for maximum realism, there are some things that don't necessarily need to be replicated!"
One after another, voices of barely suppressed complaints came from below.
Shen Heng looked down.
The warrior playing Pain was responding to the Nine-Tails ' attacks with great professionalism and seriousness; however, his response technique...
Spin, jump, raise your hand, parry...
The whole process was like doing calisthenics, very methodical.
Seeing this, Shen Heng's lips twitched involuntarily.
It must be said that every industry has its own difficulties!
In theory, these fighting techniques are not entirely without merit.
It's just a whole set connected...
Since Elder Zhou and Li Boyuan's hearing hadn't been enhanced, they clearly couldn't hear what the people below were saying. They only knew that the crowd below had become somewhat noisy after the battle began.
They didn't know much about Naruto, and they only came to watch because Han Ling and Stone were in the show. They just assumed that the warriors were so excited because the battles were so exciting!
Zhou Zhenguo watched the reaction below with satisfaction, his gaze sweeping over the man and beast engaged in battle.
"Speaking of which, that Stone guy is one thing, but playing that, that..."
" Pain!" Shen Heng reminded him.
"Isn't the person playing that member of the performing arts troupe who plays Pain only Tier 3? How can they achieve this kind of effect?" Zhou Zhenguo asked.
"No, apart from her own actions being controlled by herself, all the other effects were created by professionals!" Shen Heng's gaze swept towards the edge of the valley. "For example, the tremors, the raised ground, and the wind that stirred up the dust and snow!"
"Hmm? Were those all created by other soldiers?" Zhou Zhenguo raised an eyebrow as he looked at the dust and snow that filled the entire valley.
Nearly half of the combat effectiveness is achieved through this.
The other half consists of sound, gravel, and the actors involved.
"Well, mainly, Stone and that warrior playing Pain only managed to get a small part out!" Shen Heng explained.
"I see!" Zhou Zhenguo nodded knowingly. "I was wondering how that warrior, who was only Third Tier, could fight so well against Stone!"
Shen Heng nodded, and just as he was about to explain further, he suddenly stopped.
He turned his head and looked at Shuofang City, which was built on a high mountain not far away.
He paused, then looked away at Elder Zhou and Li Boyuan standing beside him.
Elder Zhou was still looking on with great interest, but Li Boyuan, noticing him looking over, looked back with some confusion.
Shen Heng nodded to Li Boyuan, then looked at Zhou Zhenguo.
" Elder Zhou, it's time to go back."
