章節 181: Chapter 181
Naruto, Kakashi, and the other ninjas turned their bewildered gazes towards Carnes.
"He's already arrived?" Naruto and the others were taken aback.
All eyes turned toward Carnes, a collective realization dawning.
Their intuition led them to guess the identity of the individual in question, although no signs of his presence were initially evident.
As their extraordinary perception skills had detected no unusual chakra signatures before now.
Moments passed in suspense, and then Demiurge without any trace of emotion stated, his voice cutting through the tension.
"Indeed, he's arrived in the village, and he'll be here shortly.
So, you don't need to search for him, he's about to make his presence known."
As his words hung in the air, six ominous black dots appeared in the sky.
These distant specks quickly expanded in size as they descended upon the Konoha Village, their figures becoming apparent to all who saw them.
Instantly everyone's attention was drawn to them.
"It's Pain, Pain is here!"
The words echoed through the crowd, fear mixed in their voices.
"Take cover!"
"Run away!"
"Pain is back!"
Amid the chaos and uncertainty, the villagers braced themselves for Pain's imminent arrival.
The civilians who had finally managed to calm their nerves, were suddenly gripped by sheer panic, scattering in every direction with terror etched across their faces.
It was a dreadful déjà vu: the Six Paths of Pain had once again descended upon their village and earlier they had unleashed havoc upon the village.
So naturally these innocent people had their very souls shaken to the core, and the collective trauma was imprinted deep within their hearts.
These once-stoic villagers had been pushed beyond the brink of their resilience, their fear palpable.
Of all the torment Pain had wrought, it was the Almighty Push that sent shivers down their spines.
If not for the timely intervention of Carnes, none in the village dared to imagine the horrific aftermath that might have unfolded.
On the rooftop of the Hokage building, Naruto, fueled by determination, rushed to the railing.
His gaze was unwavering, and locked on the unfolding scene in the distance.
Before them stood six different figures, each bearing distinctive appearances, wearing black coat with red cloud patterns on it.
They used black rods as Chakra receivers all over their bodies.
"Is that Pain?"
Naruto mumbled, his voice tinged with a mix of anger and grief.
"The one who killed Pervy Sage!"
Pain made another sweeping motion, trying to unleash his mighty attack once more.
But this time, the eyes of Kakashi, Tsunade, and the experienced Anbu ninja present there were focused on Carnes, who reclined in a rocking chair, an aura of insurmountable power emanating from him.
Kakashi, Tsunade, who bore the weight of past tragedies, and every ninja on the scene knew one thing for certain: as long as Carnes was willing to intervene and help them, Pain's mighty forces would pose no genuine threat to the village.
Irrespective of the powerful technique called Almighty Push, Carnes had the capacity to nullify its power with ease.
The atmosphere in Konoha, unlike the previous attack, bore less of the somber weight of despair.
Having once overcome this crisis, a subtle tinge of optimism seeped in.
the inhabitants found themselves veering away from sheer dread to contemplation.
Speculation buzzed through their collective consciousness.
Would Carnes choose to act and help them this time?
What motive would propel his intervention, and what would be the reasons that might stop him from taking action?
However, deep down, they understood that this unfolding drama was filled with complexity, and the true motives remained mysterious.
It all seemed like an elaborate, theatrical performance, laden with subplots and hidden agendas.
