Naruto : My system is weird

With that roar, a thunderclap erupted from the previously overcast sky, startling everyone.In an instant, the clouds seemed to be stirred, rolling several times before forming an "eye" above everyone's heads, continuously drawing in surrounding dark clouds like a whirlpool in the sea.

The pitch-black clouds pressed lower and lower, and this sudden change made everyone on the scene hold their breath, their movements slowing involuntarily.

"What... what is that?"

"Whatever it is... hurry! Get out of here now!!"

Shinobi who had long walked the line between life and death naturally possessed a sense of crisis. Faced with such an eerie scene, they could only steel themselves and hasten their departure.

Only the shinobi from Kumogakure, upon seeing the gathering dark clouds in the sky, wore expressions of wild joy on their faces.

Originally, they had been worried about how to escape the encirclement of others after taking the eyes of the Akatsuki Organization.

But now...

It's settled! Everything is settled!

"Thunder is coming! We have a huge advantage!!"

"Later, we'll capture the leader of Akatsuki... and kill the shinobi from other villages while we're at it!"

"Hurry! We must end the battle quickly before the thunderstorm disappears!"

The Kumogakure shinobi's fighting spirit ignited instantly at this sight, each of them shouting wildly as they charged toward where the Akatsuki leader had vanished.

The Lightning Release Chakra around their bodies grew even more violent.

Crack—boom—

Thunder roared again, and the sky seemed to split into countless dense fissures, carrying an aura of destruction that made everyone's hearts skip a beat.

Even the moving shinobi paused involuntarily, an inexplicable fear rising in their hearts.

As if...

If they moved even a little, they might be struck by lightning and perish on the spot.

Kaito, who was experiencing this up close, had it even worse. He could only feel his biological instincts screaming at him to flee immediately.

The Heavenly Tribulation's range was vast.

But feeling the destructive aura up close and seeing the blue lightning tearing through the sky, he was certain that the shinobi on the ground would likely not survive this tempering.

Boom—

Just as Kaito's thoughts wandered, thunder sounded again, but this time the blue lightning was gone, replaced by golden arcs flickering within the clouds.

"No... this isn't right!!"

"This isn't normal weather!"

The Fourth Raikage, seeing this, felt all his hair stand on end. He urgently called out to his village's shinobi, shouting for them to retreat from the battlefield's periphery.

Meanwhile, in Amegakure, Uchiha Hikari, witnessing the apocalyptic scene in the distance, unconsciously tightened her grip on her own arm.

She was both worried and slightly terrified.

Seriously...

Whose Lightning Release could cover 20 kilometers, flicker with golden lightning, and tear the entire sky apart??

"This power..."

Pain suddenly spoke as he gazed into the distance. Just as Konan was about to ask, he continued.

"Konan."

"Go cut the village's power supply now..."

At this point, Nagato could no longer care about how astonishing that kid's Lightning Release was. His only concern now was preventing severe damage to the village.

The village's funds were limited, and if the electrical system was destroyed...

Nagato feared that with Akatsuki's current notorious reputation, they wouldn't be able to take on enough missions to cover the village's losses.

"Understood."

Konan nodded, agreeing that Nagato's concerns were valid, and immediately leaped from the rooftop, sprinting toward the village's main power switch.She didn't even dare to spread her wings and fly away.

"Even gods... fear losses?"

Uchiha Hikari gave this guy—whose condition wasn't much better than Kaito's—a very strange look, her tone laced with both curiosity and teasing.

"Gods don't care, but mortals do."

Pain completely missed the teasing in Hikari's words. With an air of divine arrogance, he tilted his head slightly, glanced at the villagers fleeing back to their homes, then turned and left the rooftop.

Uchiha Hikari: "..."

Hearing those words, Hikari curled her toes so hard she felt like she needed to change her shoes.

And also...

She truly couldn't understand how the thought processes of those two lunatics managed to communicate so seamlessly.

Hikari took a deep breath, silently resolving in her heart to stay far away from these deranged individuals, lest she catch whatever madness they had in the near future.

But for some reason, the scene of Kaito bowing to his master kept flashing through her mind, making her so embarrassed she almost wanted to silence anyone who witnessed it.

Still, thoughts were just thoughts. As Uchiha Hikari gazed at the golden lightning flashing in the distance, the worry in her eyes was impossible to hide.

"Don't die on me now..."

BOOM—

Finally, the lightning streaking through the clouds, like a golden serpent, struck Kaito directly, the sheer force sending him plummeting to the ground.

But it wasn't over. As this bolt struck, countless others rained down from the sky, as if targeting every single person on the ground, lashing out at them mercilessly.

Many didn't even have time to scream before they were reduced to charred corpses, the stench of burnt flesh quickly filling the air.

"Pfft—" Kaito spat out a mouthful of blood, struggling to rise from the ground, his body already marked with several lightning-scorched cracks.

"This is really gonna kill me..."

The cage on his body had already turned to dust after absorbing some of the damage. Thankfully, he had stashed the Sunflower away in time—otherwise, that strike would've probably sent it straight to the afterlife.

The only thing Kaito could be grateful for was...

After enduring that last bolt of lightning, the wounds on his body were glowing with a golden light, his injuries slowly healing.

The spiritual energy stored in his dantian spread across his body, operating beyond its normal capacity under this immense pressure.

"Cloud ninja..."

"You... you bastards deserve to die!!"

Not everyone had perished under the lightning. Those who survived lay on the ground, their first instinct upon seeing the kid at the center being that he was a shinobi from Kumogakure.

And when they glanced at the nearby ninja wearing Cloud headbands—who had only had their hair stand on end after being struck—their suspicions deepened.

Of course.

Given that these people were already dark-skinned, the lightning had merely darkened them by a shade, making them look almost unharmed from the outside.

But the suffering they endured was something only they truly knew.

"Kid! Stop this right now!!"

"How can you use Ninjutsu that attacks your own people too?!"

Kaito: ?

The Cloud ninja were so furious their eyes had turned red. Though they didn't recognize the kid, a Lightning Release of this magnitude was indeed something only their village could produce.

None of them doubted it for a second, only shouting at him from the sidelines.

Outwardly, the Cloud ninja appeared the same as before, but in Kaito's perception, their internal conditions were in complete disarray.

Without the aid of spiritual energy, the golden lightning not only brought them no benefits but also forcibly scattered the Lightning Release Chakra within their bodies.

Kaito didn't bother explaining the misunderstanding. Instead, he simply raised a hand, pointing toward the thunderous sky."Shut up! Can't you endure even this much?"

Kaito said with a straight face, then couldn't help but cough up blood, making the surviving ninjas on the scene twitch uncontrollably.

Dude...

If you're done living, don't drag everyone else down with you!

Boom—

The lightning struck again, this time with even more terrifying force, revealing the bones beneath the flesh of those it hit.

The survivors within range finally couldn't withstand this trial. A flash of white light appeared before their eyes, and they all reunited in the Pure Land.

As for Kaito's position, the lightning strike had carved out a ten-meter crater.

"Damn it! I can't hold on!!!"

Lying at the bottom of the crater, Kaito was in so much pain he could barely move his fingers, his body as charred as the corpses around him.

The only sign that he was still alive was the two rows of white teeth visible as he muttered to himself.

Realizing he couldn't continue like this, a flash of inspiration struck Kaito, and he vanished from the spot.

The moment Kaito disappeared from the scene, the dark clouds above the outskirts of Amegakure instantly dissipated.

But at the same time...

Rasa, who had just returned to the village severely injured, saw the gathering dark clouds above and his pained expression instantly turned to ecstasy.

"It's going to rain!!"

"Someone! Quickly notify the villagers to prepare to collect water!!"
