Chapter 167
At such an astonishing height, the shockwave from energy unleashed by Deva Path was nothing short of terrifying.
Tsunade's realization struck her like a thunderbolt.
What in the world was this massive attack that Carnes had been speaking of?
Panic gripped the hearts of everyone who had gathered around, their eyes wide with fear.
"This power... it's that jutsu! But the sheer power in it now is beyond belief..."
Kakashi's face bore an expression of utter despair.
This incredible force was so huge that anywhere this energy impacts, it would get destroyed immediately.
Even if he were willing to risk it all with Kamui, he couldn't escape the impending catastrophe.
Meanwhile, within Konoha Village, Demiurge, who had been trying to find and recruit new powerful members repeatedly without success, roamed aimlessly in disappointment.
His wandering was abruptly halted when he caught sight of the blinding light and overwhelming energy.
A deep furrow formed on his brow.
"How can such a powerful technique be unleashed in such a confined space? It's absolute madness, a true calamity.
But if this place is erased... it would surely incur the captain's wrath, wouldn't it?"
"Captain's anger..."
"That's truly something to fear!"
As the first to join Carnes' special crew, Demiurge had spent the longest time alongside his captain.
He was intimately familiar with Carnes' character—a generally easygoing and composed individual with a wealth of experience and a calm demeanor born of life's ups and downs.
But when Carnes was provoked...
Regardless of the foe's might...
Everyone would bear witness to his unleashed anger!
Furthermore, Demiurge had yet to witness Carnes' true power.
Each time they clashed, Carnes seemed to make up something new, as though there was no bottom to Carnes' powerful abilities, it was bottomless.
He perpetually believed that his captain possessed an unending arsenal of surprises, revealing new abilities with each fight.
'I hope our captain doesn't become completely enraged.' Demiurge muttered; his eyes locked on the unfolding chaos.
'Otherwise, unimaginable calamity will befall on this village,' he whispered to himself.
.....
"How can such a devastating jutsu exist in this world?"
"This kind of jutsu... is... it can't be real!"
"Is this some sort of sick joke?"
Everyone wondered aloud, disbelief etched across their faces.
As the chaos continued to unfold, a deep sense of dread washed over the village.
"If this continues, our village will be destroyed!"
"It will be reduced to rubble."
High above, on the rooftop of the Hokage building, the Anbu elite ninjas watched in terror.
They were all gripped by fear.
With their strength, they might survive the aftermath of this attack.
But it was clear even to their trained eyes that the entire village could be razed to the ground by this technique.
For some of these ninja, the thought of their village being destroyed was even worse than death itself.
They simply couldn't fathom it. Nor could they accept such a fate.
For normal people and weak ninjas, they couldn't escape the realization that even they might not survive the aftermath of the attack.
Caught in this dire situation, they felt utterly helpless, their hearts shrouded in despair and weighed down by a profound sense of powerlessness and despair.
"Hmm..."
Carnes let out a heavy sigh.
Carnes let out a heavy sigh, his mind filled with a sense of frustration.
He had only wanted to quietly observe Nagato's dark past and perhaps catch a glimpse of some significant moments.
He viewed this transmigration as a minor detour in their journey, with no intention of disrupting the course of this world.
After all, Carnes believed that he had already demonstrated his strength previously.
He reasoned that even if he remained seated, motionless in his rocking chair, Nagato should not dare to unleash this "Almighty Push."
It simply wouldn't serve any purpose.
But as he watched the unfolding scene, Carnes couldn't shake the feeling that the world was slipping out of control, and he found himself more involved than he had ever intended.
Their mission revolved around capturing Naruto and capturing the Nine-Tails; destroying Konoha should have never been part of their plan as Carnes was here.
To provoke someone as formidable as himself just to vent anger seemed grossly inefficient.
So, Carnes reclined in his chair, content to watch events unfold as if he were watching a play.
He figured he could complete their mission at his own pace.
After all, Naruto will come from Mount Myōboku soon, rendering his direct intervention unnecessary.
So, why rush?
Plus, it would offer another intriguing spectacle to enjoy.
But Carnes hadn't anticipated this turn of events.
Carnes soon discovered that Nagato's obsession and anger ran far deeper than he had anticipated.
In essence, Tsunade's previous words and the peaceful existence of Konoha had struck a chord deep within Nagato's heart.
'Your desires have certainly made quite an impression on the system, they are strong enough for even the system to take notice,' Carnes mused.
'It seems your obsession runs deep indeed.'
He sighed again, conceding.
'Well never mind. After uncovering so much about your dark history.'
'I might as well help you fulfill your wish. I can't have my subordinates thinking their captain lacks compassion..."
'But honestly, I must admit, I never expected you to be so audacious at this stage,' Carnes added wryly.
'Daring to use that technique against me, your captain... it's truly unprecedented.'
With that, Carnes vanished from his spot, his form replaced by a shimmering white sphere that rapidly expanded.
Moments later, just as quickly as it had appeared, the sphere shattered into countless feather-sized fragments.
In the blink of an eye, Carnes reappeared in a new form.
His transformed appearance became visible to everyone around.
His skin was as pale as death, devoid of any trace of color, his eyes glowed in a malevolent blood-red color, and they bore the same distinctive pattern as Pain's eyes.
Three scales floated behind him, exuding the aura of Six Paths Chakra, hovering behind was the Truth-Seeking Ball,
In his hand, he wielded the Six Paths Wand.
"Since we're in this world, I might as well employ this world's power to resolve this..." Carnes muttered.
The aura radiating from Carnes at that moment caused the shockwaves of Nagato's Almighty Push to falter slightly, causing them to ripple unevenly.
And the observers below, including Kakashi and Tsunade, were left astounded, witnessing this astonishing sight.
Their expressions, now, were even more horrified than before.
"This... this is the legendary..." Kakashi stuttered, his eyes wide with disbelief.
"Yeah, this... this is the stuff of legends."
"The Chakra..."
"What in the world is this? It's absolutely terrifying!" Tsunade exclaimed.
Both Kakashi and Tsunade exchanged uneasy glances, realizing that Carnes possessed a level of Chakra that defied all comprehension.
Only now, in this moment, did they truly grasp the staggering power that Carnes wielded.
While they were well-versed in the intricacies of Chakra, the potency exhibited by Carnes was truly beyond their wildest imaginations.
Its intensity surpassed anything they had ever encountered.
Deva Path's Chakra had been impressive, but what they witnessed now was nothing short of divine.
