As soon as Rasa saw the Tailed Beast Bomb coming in his direction, he knew that it was impossible for him to defend against this attack. So, he covered a few of his trusted subordinates in gold sand and flew up into the air, positioning himself towards the back. He was aware that he couldn't fully avoid the shockwave of the Tailed Beast Bomb, so he decided to retreat, or else he would surely get injured from the shockwave.

Rasa had to outrun the Tailed Beast Bomb because it was covered in Yasaka Magatama, which further increased its speed.

Finally, the Tailed Beast Bomb made an impact with the ground and exploded with a BOOM. Everything within a 40-meter radius from the Tailed Beast Bomb was obliterated and vaporized before anyone present in the tent could react.

The impact was so powerful that even after being covered in Gold Dust, Rasa was affected by it and thrown even further away with his few trusted subordinates.

Finally, when Rasa landed, he saw the destruction caused by the Tailed Beast Bomb and noticed that everything was vaporized within a 40-meter radius. He was shocked because it wasn't the first time he had seen the destructive power of the Tailed Beast Bomb from the One-Tail. As a student of the Third Kazekage, he had witnessed the Third Kazekage suppress the One-Tail multiple times, and on two occasions, he had seen the One-Tail use the Tailed Beast Bomb, causing considerable destruction. However, this current level of destruction was on a whole other scale.

Suddenly, Rasa felt something, and the gold dust around him moved, attacking towards his behind. Rasa turned around and saw Karan standing there, which surprised him. Karan was standing on the head of Shukaku just before Rasa was thrown backward. It was evident that Karan hadn't used the Body Flicker technique; instead, he must have employed space-time techniques. What surprised Rasa even more was that his attack went directly through Uchiha Karan without harming him in the least.

"Don't think too much, Kazekage. Your attacks will not affect me," said Karan.

"Just stand here and watch the show I'll put on for you and your trusted subordinates," said Karan as he raised his hand and used his space control ability to create a "Space Confinement."

All the space around Rasa was blocked, and he felt that something was wrong as he couldn't sense anything few centimetres away from him. He extended his hand outward, but it was stopped, as if a transparent wall had been erected around him, through which he could only see.

"What did you do? Let me out!" shouted Rasa, but there was no response. Karan disappeared, and Rasa only heard, "Watch the good show that I have prepared for you."

After that, what the Kazekage saw was something that he would remember for life—a total massacre by Uchiha Karan and Shukaku in a completely crushing battle. Shukaku was merely using the 'Wind Release: Drilling Air Bullet,' but even then, he was effortlessly destroying the ninjas of Sunagakure as if they were nothing.

Upon seeing the Kazekage trapped, the ninjas of Sunagakure wanted to help, and some even reached the place. However, no matter how hard they tried, they were unable to break through the space barrier created by Uchiha Karan.

Rasa's voice didn't even come out from the space barrier created by Uchiha Karan, so he wasn't able to say anything. The ninjas were trying their best by using different ninjutsu, but every jutsu failed. Suddenly, Uchiha Karan appeared using teleportation in front of Rasa and killed all the ninjas present.

Although Rasa didn't have full authority and military power, he is the Kazekage, after all, and for the prosperity of Sunagakure, he can go to any lengths. However, seeing so many ninjas dying in front of him, he was feeling despair.

After that, the massacre continued for the next few hours, and on the battlefield, only the corpses of Sunagakure ninjas remained. Rasa was a stone-hearted person; that's why he didn't break down like his subordinates who were sitting on the ground beside him in despair.

Out of the 4000 Sunagakure ninjas, 3000 were killed in the battle with Uchiha Karan, and the remaining thousand ninjas ran away after witnessing the massacre by Uchiha Karan.

Most of the time, when dealing with weak Genins and Chunins, Uchiha Karan did not even use much ninjutsu. Instead, he defeated them simply by using his swordsmanship.

The whole battle was used by Karan to hone his battle instinct and test how powerful he is without using ninjutsu but purely based on his physical strength and swordsmanship.

After killing so many ninjas, Karan didn't even have a spot of blood on his body.

He walked up to Rasa and removed the spatial barrier. As soon as he did, Rasa was waiting for this chance and immediately used a huge amount of sand to envelop Karan. But, as before, nothing happened, and Karan said, "Don't waste your time, Rasa. You won't be able to harm me even in your dreams after today, let alone in a real battle."

After saying that, Uchiha Karan placed his hand on Rasa's shoulder, and before Rasa could react, he was sucked into a spatial vortex and disappeared from the place.

Uchiha Karan looked towards Baki and the other subordinates of Rasa and said, "I am taking your Kazekage with me. If you want him alive, then come to the Uchiha clan to negotiate for his life, Sunagakure."
