A/N:- Hello everyone, my new Naruto fan-fic, 'The Rogue Demon of the Shinobi World' is out.
Also, check out my pat reon www.pa treon.com/ForgottenLife to support my work and get a sneak peak at the latest chapters of both series. Read upto 50+ chapters from both series combined in advance.
------------------------
Sasuke notices the massive flow of chakra from all planetary cores to the giant formation.
He witnesses some cracks in the barrier around Konoha and the massive amount of rocks and sediments depositing around the barrier.
"I am afraid only Izuna Nii-san can counter something of this scale with his Fuinjutsu techniques."
He shakes his head and focuses his attention on the Hidan who just casually walked out of the dust and debris. The curse marks around his body have faded.
"That was one hell of a Fire Release jutsu. For a moment, I thought I might die for real this time."
Hidan cracks his neck and glares at Sasuke.
"Kid, that was a really cool technique. Now, it's my turn."
Sasuke claps his palm and enters Sage Mode. A purple pigmentation appears around his eyes.
"Lord Jashin, I pledge this offering to you."
Hidan removes his upper priest garment. The symbol of Jashinism is engraved on his chest.
Hidan pulls out the short dagger from earlier. Sasuke pays close attention to Hidan's every action.
'The curse techniques of this guy follow some weird and unknown principle and sharply deviate from the regular elemental as well as Yin-Yan release. It's like he using an entirely different type of energy.'
Sasuke notices the Jashinism symbol with the inverted triangle contained within a circle on the hilt of the short dagger.
"Lord Jashin!"
Hidan holds the dagger with both hands and brings it in front of him.
"Jujutsu: Seppuku Ultimate Blood Sacrifice Rite,"
Puchi…
Hidan stabs the blood demon dagger in the center of the triangle at the position of his heart.
Bleurgh…
He pukes out a mouthful of blood on the ground. Hidan's eyes turn white and his body turns limp. His blood vessels become visible as the dagger absorbs the entire blood in his body.
Chills run through Sasuke's spine as he has an ominous foreboding. A pupil appears in the center of the triangle on the blood demon dagger.
Swish…
Hidan's eyes turn red. He drags out the blood demon dagger from his heart.
Slosh… slosh…
A large amount of blood splashes out of his body and dyes the ground red.
Lubdub… lubdub…
A heart is still beating on the blade of the blood demon dagger. The heart melds into the blade and several blood vessels appear on the dagger. The size of the blade grows bigger as the blood vessels grow around the dagger and morph into a crimson blade. Blood red aura pulsates around the blood demon blade.
Hidan's entire body turns black. His hairs turn blood red and a giant eye appears in the center of his chest. A deep voice escapes from his mouth.
"Finally, I finally have a vessel of my own. Now, this world will be mine to rule. Haha…"
Sasuke is rooted on the spot as the sight of the blood demon instills fear in his body.
-----------------------
High up in the sky,
The purple and black-cloaked figure silently stares at the ongoing battle in Konoha.
"A toddler can cause more destruction than these pathetic mortals. These mortals they are…" The purple-cloaked chuckles at the sight of their battle.
He stops midway after feeling an icy gaze on his back.
"Why are you so interested in the battle of such a scale?" The black-cloaked figure ignores him and turns his attention to the situation below.
"Woah… I didn't expect that. These guys raided a tomb or something. Why do they have these ancient Otsutsuki weapons with them? Wait, could these be the remains of the battle from the Numen Era?"
The purple cloaked seemingly answers his own question.
"Hmm… that seems to make sense. It was during the battle of the Numen era that the universe was fragmented into numerous worlds and dimensions. To think that this small-scale world has another of those old ruins. Now, these further pique my curiosity about this world. Oh! You also seem to—"
"SHUT UP!"
The purple figure turns silent and focuses his attention on the battle. After a while, he is completely immersed in the battle of the mortals.
"Tch… what a waste of such a large amount of energy? This is such a rough way to handle this formation. He can't even bring about ten percent power of this formation."
The purple-cloaked figure shakes his head in disgust when the Tai Chi symbols engulf the entire Konoha.
"Hmm… a protective barrier. This barrier is pretty decent for a world of this standard, but the use of Fuinjutsu seals is very coarse and there are multiple errors in it. Even a beginner wouldn't make many rookie mistakes. However, looking at the standard of this world, I will ignore such rough work for now."
The purple-cloaked figure has blatant disgust on his face.
"No one will think you are a mute if you didn't run your mouth for a while." The black-cloaked figure rebukes him.
"Haha… don't mind me. I am just stating facts." He chuckles and turns his attention to the battle between Jiraiya and Pain.
"A bearer of Otsutsuki bloodline! No… even a mosquito in the Otsutsuki household will have a thicker bloodline than this guy."
He turns his attention away from the Pain and stares in a distance.
"So, that's where you are hiding? Hmm… something is not right! The spiritual signals from his body and his eyes are different. These aren't his eyes. Now all of this makes sense. No wonder he has such pathetic control. Well, whatever, it's not my business, anyway." He shrugs his shoulder and turns his attention to the battle.
"Oh, Senjutsu! These animals can use Senjutsu."
The purple-cloaked figure is surprised by the toad's usage of Senjutsu.
"Well, Senjutsu wasn't originally created for such a purpose and these people are only scrapping the basics of it. So, it doesn't matter. However, I have to praise them for their creativity. Even I didn't think of such a method to use this energy. No wonder… no wonder those Otsutsuki are harvesting these small worlds. There is much to gain from them."
He turns his attention from Jiraiya and Pain's battle to Naruto and Kakuzu's battle.
"Oh, that's an interesting battle. One of them hosts sentimental nature energy with traces of Origin energy, while the other is using a flawed low-level puppet manipulation technique from the Astral Demon clan. Despite his claim of perfection, he is still missing about seventy percent of the original technique. And that technique too is obsolete after a certain level."
He chuckles and turns his attention to the battle between Sasuke and Hidan. When Hidan transforms into his reaper form.
"Hmm… I seem to have seen this symbol somewhere before. I can't seem to recall it, though."
Hidan performs Seppuku and pierces his heart with the blood demon dagger and transforms into a demon.
"This… this stench… no wonder… NO WONDER!"
For the first time, rage appears in the purple-cloaked figure's kaleidoscopic eyes.
"So, this filthy human was a vessel of that damn traitor!"
The purple-cloaked figure grits his teeth. The goofiness from earlier disappears.
Swoosh…
He disappears from his place and reappears in front of the transformed Hidan.
"This damn fool! Interfering in matters he should stay away from."
A similar kaleidoscopic pattern appears in the black figure's eyes.
"Ōkuninushi: Zettai no Jikan no Okure," (Authority of Time Lord: Absolute Time Dilation,)
[A/N: - I couldn't find a fitting Shinto god with the authority of the time, so I have to settle with this one.]
As soon as the purple-cloaked figure appears in front of the transformed Hidan, the time of the entire world comes to a pause.
"What's going on?" The blood demon stares around in curiosity. He turns towards the purple-cloaked figure and questions him.
"Are you the one responsible for this?
The purple-cloaked figure removes his hood to reveal his kaleidoscopic eyes.
The eyes of the blood demon narrow to the extreme.
"This… this pattern… you are a descendant of the Royal family of the Astral Demon clan. Wait, that face! You are the prince. What are you doing in such a backwater world?"
"So, you do recognize me; you a filthy traitor?" The face of the purple-cloaked figure hardens.
"I would like to pay you back a hundred times for the sin you committed back then. However, this body of yours is just a vessel that you can change anytime. However, that doesn't mean I can't harm your real body." The purple-cloaked figure clenches his fist.
The kaleidoscopic pattern in his eye flickers slightly.
"Authority of the Death Lord: Malevolent Curse of Osiris,"
Shiing…
A dark black Ankh brand appears in front of the purple-cloaked figure. The brand enters the body of the blood demon.
"What did you do to me?" The blood demon panics slightly.
"You will know soon." The purple-cloaked figure murmurs and turns to the black-cloaked figure.
Smoke rises from the blood demon's figure. The transformation comes undone, and a frozen Hidan with the blood demon dagger and a hole around his heart appears in front of them.
Fwoosh…
The black Jashin symbol on his chest fades away.
"Aren't you going to do something? You also hold a grudge against that bastard." The purple-cloaked man questions the black-cloaked man.
"I already did. I slightly modified your death god curse."
"You… you can even do that!" The eyes of the purple-cloaked figure narrow.
"Now, we can track his location and exact our vendetta." The black-cloaked figure replies with an unfriendly look.
