Pop—
Boom!
An invisible wave spread through the air, starting from the Forest of Death and rapidly covering dozens of li in every direction!
This tangible wave of chakra aura was like dropping an atomic bomb into a calm sea!
Its terrifying power swept across all of Konoha!
Inside the village, people who had originally been sleeping were instantly awakened by that aura!
"Hiss…"
Orochimaru licked the corner of his mouth and looked excitedly toward the direction of the Forest of Death. His snake-like pupils shrank sharply.
"This chakra aura… is actually even more violent than the Nine-Tails?!"
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Everyone, follow me to investigate!"
The Anbu who had originally been guarding the village instantly treated it as a great enemy!
On the streets, alarm bells rang one after another!
Crack!
Bang!
Some of the nearby lamps and windows were even shattered directly by the impact of that powerful chakra aura!
"So, so, so terrifying!"
"Damn it! The window I just fixed is broken again!"
"What the hell made that noise?!"
"Yeah, this aura is even more terrifying than the Nine-Tails' attack six years ago!"
Some villagers who had experienced the Nine-Tails' attack walked out trembling.
Their faces were pale, without the slightest trace of blood.
"More terrifying than the Nine-Tails? How could such a powerful force exist in the shinobi world?!"
Someone murmured in disbelief.
But the moment he finished speaking, he suddenly turned toward the direction the aura had come from and swallowed hard.
"That place… is the industrial park? Don't tell me, don't tell me, don't tell me…"
Lord Kai!
In an instant, that name unconsciously appeared in the minds of the civilians gathering around.
Looking at all of Konoha—
No, even the entire shinobi world!
The only person who could possibly release such an overwhelming aura was him!
Thinking of this, they could not help letting out a sigh of relief.
As long as it had something to do with Lord Kai, there was no need to worry at all.
The person who had just complained about his broken window scratched his head and laughed.
"Since it's Lord Kai, then I can only blame… my window for not being tough enough."
"Don't worry, brother. I'll help you fix your window for free later!"
"No, no, no. How could I let you do that?"
"Haha, don't be polite. The Village Committee will compensate everyone for this kind of loss, so don't worry! And it'll be double compensation at a one-to-two ratio!"
"Long live the Village Committee! Long live Lord Kai!"
Amid the cheers, someone laughed and raised a point.
"Everyone, if we take advantage of the chaos right now and push down our own houses, then wouldn't we be able to…"
"Then you'll be able to enter the industrial park!"
"Hahahahaha!"
…
At this moment, inside the industrial park they were talking about—
Boom!
The Fourth Raikage, A, who had been using Lightning Release to roughen and score the surface of a concrete foundation, suddenly staggered.
A violent aura directly overturned him onto the ground!
He paused, sitting on the ground as the lightning around his body abruptly froze.
After realizing what had happened, he suddenly raised his head and looked toward the direction of the Forest of Death, his eyes full of horror.
"Th-this, this chakra aura! It belongs to that brat?!!"
"It actually overturned me through chakra aura alone, even when I had my Lightning Release Armor activated…"
"What kind of shinobi village joke is this?!"
He froze there.
His entire imposing presence was like a duck being grabbed by the throat, stopping abruptly.
Just as he was staring blankly, a Kumo shinobi behind him suddenly cried out in alarm.
"Crap! Lord A, watch out!"
"Hm?"
A did not understand and subconsciously turned his head.
"Oh, damn it!"
Only then did he realize that the foundation they had just nearly finished hardening had actually been cracked open by him sitting down on it!
"That foundation was so hard to finish!!!"
In another area—
The Eight-Tails Jinchūriki's exclusive "VIP" labor reform zone!
At this moment, Killer B had a displeased face as he used an octopus tentacle to roll up a massive boulder, muttering some nonsensical rap.
"Yo, yo~ fool, ya fool! Hauling bricks every day! Lord Killer B's heart is full of dismay~ yo, yo!"
"B, there are some things inside your body."
At that moment, the Eight-Tails, Gyūki, suddenly spoke, his brows extremely serious.
"They seem to be some gloomy little things!"
As he spoke, Gyūki directly spat out a large mouthful of chakra!
Then that chakra surged through Killer B's limbs and bones nonstop.
Boom, boom!
Pfft!
Pfft!
The intense heat nearly roasted half of Killer B black in an instant!
"Awoo!"
Killer B let out a miserable howl, and his shrill cry instantly resounded throughout the entire Konoha industrial park!
But as his body was scorched, the hidden spores inside him were also burned red-hot by that blazing chakra aura one after another.
In the end, they turned into protein and flowed into his cells.
"Huff, huff… lucky, lucky!"
A moment later, Killer B felt his entire body become incomparably refreshed!
Not only were his thoughts clear, but with Gyūki's help, his entire body had also returned to its peak condition!
His powerful physical strength gave him a good deal of confidence.
Killer B grinned. Just as he was about to throw his head back and laugh, an intense, violent aura suddenly rushed from ahead!
Like a heavy hammer, it smashed fiercely into his chest!
Bang!
Boom!
Without any surprise, Killer B was directly overturned and sent tumbling across the ground several times.
"Pah, pah, pah! What's going on?!"
After that aura passed, he randomly patted the dust from his body, his face full of confusion.
"Where did that chakra pressure come from just now?!"
"B!! It's him! It's that Uchiha Kai's aura!"
Inside his mindscape, the Eight-Tails Gyūki cried out in shock.
But right after saying that, confusion entered his voice again.
"Strange… why has his aura become this powerful?"
"This kind of pressure, even if the strongest among us—the Nine-Tails—erupted with all its strength, it couldn't reach this range… Did that guy become even more terrifying?"
Thinking of this possibility, Gyūki's heart jolted!
Only Killer B, whose confidence had returned, waved his hand without a care.
"Doesn't matter. I, Killer B, have returned to my peak!"
"B!"
Gyūki rolled his eyes and sighed inside Killer B's mindscape.
"That chakra aura is very strong!"
"And… there's also an aura that makes me very uncomfortable… What exactly is this?!"
"Not important. While we have the chance, let's rush out!"
Killer B waved his hand again, pulled out the long blade from behind him, and somehow wiped a pair of sunglasses onto his face.
That force just now had made his heart jump, but it had also let him see hope!
The entire industrial park had been overturned by that overwhelming aura. The Uchiha clansmen guarding him must also have been knocked to the ground by it!
It was precisely during this time gap that if he rushed out, he would never come back to this place again!
Thinking of this, he laughed loudly.
"A rare chance! Lord Killer B is slipping away!"
As his words fell, the Eight-Tails chakra inside his body instantly erupted!
Below him, three octopus tails slammed hard against the ground, directly launching his entire body into the air!
Whoosh—boom!
Dust exploded!
Like a cannonball fired from its barrel, he shot straight out!
His target was none other than the direction of the chakra eruption's center!
The scorched land outside the industrial park!
In his view, the center would definitely be the most chaotic place!
And also—
The best place to fish in troubled waters and sneak away!
