Qing tried to stop him with physical skills, but her body seemed to become extremely stiff and she couldn't move.
The Rubik's Cube then walked to his side, reached out without hesitation, and precisely probed Qing's right eye, which he had been hiding with an eye patch.
"Ugh—!"
Intense pain shot through him as his precious white eye was gouged out! Blood gushed from the empty socket.
However, Qing, who was enduring immense pain, was filled with more confusion than anything else. What kind of ability was this? Just now, when she was about to stop him, she clearly saw that he was still some distance away from her. When did he get to her side? Why did her senses not register anything?
"Blue! Damn it! When and why did I suddenly end up on Blue's side? Is it a space-time ninjutsu?!"
Just as Ao was frozen in place, Mei Terumi finally recovered from what appeared to be a powerful illusion. The first thing she saw was the Rubik's Cube holding the bleeding Byakugan and Ao's horribly disfigured right eye socket.
"Blue!" Mei Terumi's heart sank.
The Rubik's Cube's cold gaze swept over Qing, whose consciousness was blurred by the excruciating pain and the illusion, its voice devoid of any emotion:
"When I asked that question just now, you didn't step back, right?"
His gaze seemed to penetrate Qing's brain.
"After all, he's a ninja, and the origin of this Byakugan... isn't exactly honorable."
Before he could finish speaking, a sharp glint of light flashed past.
This elite Jonin of Kirigakure, who deeply loved Kirigakure, was full of hope for its future, and was the greatest contributor to overthrowing the Fourth Mizukage's tyranny, didn't even have time to utter a last word before collapsing into a pool of blood, his life instantly extinguished.
"Qing! Damn it!!!"
Mei Terumi was utterly enraged! Ao was not only a reliable comrade-in-arms and capable subordinate who fought alongside her to overthrow the Fourth Mizukage's tyranny, but also a rare elite talent in Kirigakure today.
As one of the few and most outstanding intelligence experts and sensory ninjas, his contributions and role in the village are enormous. He is a pillar of Kirigakure today, second only to her and Elder Genji in importance.
However, this incredibly important partner, who embodied the village's future hopes, was so easily killed right before her eyes by the very person who was most likely the culprit behind the tragedy that had plagued Kirigakure for so many years!
A boundless rage and surging killing intent erupted from Mei Terumi, and the surrounding air seemed to become scorching and viscous because of her anger.
"I have more important things to do now."
Rubik's Cube's cold words echoed in the blood-soaked hall, carrying an undeniable resolve.
His crimson Mangekyou Sharingan glanced at Mei Terumi again. With just a simple eye contact, Mei Terumi didn't even have time to react before her consciousness and body were once again forcibly "stuck" in place, unable to move.
The Rubik's Cube's gaze passed over her, like two blood-quenched ice spikes, fixed on the Daimyo and the lord who were already trembling on the ground, trembling like mud, terrified.
He first looked at the lord who, even in extreme fear, instinctively tried to push the daimyo in front of him as a shield.
"You gave the order to massacre the surrounding villages, didn't you?"
Although it was a question, his tone was cold and firm, brooking no doubt or excuse.
"Village? Village? What village? I don't know, I don't know!"
The lord, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, screamed incoherently in denial, tears streaming down his face, making a complete fool of himself.
"Tsk."
The impatient click of the tongue had barely faded when another sharp glint of light flashed past!
"Ughhhhhh! My hand! My hand!"
The lord's right arm was severed at the shoulder and rolled to the ground, blood gushing out like a fountain. The intense pain caused him to scream like a pig being slaughtered, and he writhed wildly on the ground.
"Next up is the left arm. If you don't want to become a human stick, answer my questions honestly."
The Rubik's Cube's voice remained completely still, as if it were simply stating a fact.
"...Was it you who gave the order?"
"It wasn't me! It really wasn't me!"
The lord was on the verge of collapse due to the excruciating pain and fear, his voice trembling with sobs.
"I...I did distribute the relocation fees! I did! It's all my subordinates' fault...it's all the fault of those greedy bastards under my command! Those lowly people! They got greedy and wanted to slaughter those poor villages so they could pocket the money for themselves! It's their fault! It's all their fault! It has nothing to do with me, nothing to do with me!"
"What? You!"
Upon hearing the lord's hasty "explanation," the daimyo, who was sitting prostrate on the ground, instantly understood why this god of death had come.
The extreme fear instantly transformed into boundless hatred for the one who caused the disaster. He immediately shifted all blame onto the lord and cried out towards the Rubik's Cube:
"You bastard! It's all because of you! Sir! I'm innocent! I'm innocent! I just happened to be here! Don't kill me, don't..."
The plea for mercy came to an abrupt halt.
Another flash of light swept past.
The words of the great name froze on his lips as his body was precisely and effortlessly split in two along its central axis.
A warm, foul-smelling liquid instantly seeped from the terrified lord's crotch, mixed with a strong smell of blood, and even penetrated the Rubik's Cube's mask, entering his nasal cavity.
A flash of extreme disgust crossed Rubik's Cube's eyes. He grabbed the lord's dwindling hair and forced him to lift his head.
No need for further words, three tomoe swirled rapidly in those scarlet eyes!
Genjutsu: Sharingan!
The lord's eyes instantly became dull and lifeless, losing all focus.
"Tell me, is what you just said true? What are the specific details?"
The Rubik's Cube's cold voice invaded his brain directly.
The lord, as if in a dream, even revealed a strange, boastful smile, and began to confess:
“I…I originally wanted all those lowly people to move out, but those ignorant fools actually dared to ask me for relocation fees? What do they take me for?”
Hehe... Of course I 'gave' it, but the recipients were my officers and soldiers. I implied they could keep this 'small' relocation fee for themselves...
In order to get them to do this for me "voluntarily," I had been openly and secretly cutting their pay and supplies beforehand, and several soldiers' families were already going hungry...
These idiots, taking the money I skimmed from them, are kneeling before me with gratitude, treating me like a benefactor. It's absolutely hilarious... hahaha... hahahaha…"
The illusion is lifted.
The lord regained his senses, and the words he had just uttered uncontrollably felt like ice water poured over his entire body. He stared in utter terror at the Rubik's Cube before him, its murderous aura almost tangible. His lips trembled, but he could no longer utter a sound of pleading or defense.
"you…"
The Rubik's Cube's voice was deep, each word containing a raging inferno.
"Damn it!"
He grabbed the lord, who seemed to be trying to wriggle a little more.
The Sharingan in his right eye instantly transformed into a kaleidoscope.
"Takamagahara!"
The next second, the lord found himself being slammed hard onto the cold, hard ground.
He looked around in horror. This was no longer a luxurious hall, but a narrow, eerie space filled with a suffocating sense of oppression.
The Rubik's Cube stood before him, as if it were the master of this space. His icy voice echoed in the deathly silence, carrying endless irony and murderous intent:
"Welcome to my Takamagahara."
"Or rather... the dueling arena."
Chapter 74 Changing the World!
Chapter 74 Changing the World!
"A duel arena?"
The lord, already terrified, realized he had been suddenly dragged into a strange and inexplicable space. The intense fear made him instinctively want to escape from the cube's side.
He shakily tried to crawl away from the Rubik's Cube using both his hands and feet, but was horrified to find that every movement he made became slow and sluggish, as if he were struggling in deep water, so slow that it was despairing.
"What's going on? Where am I? Don't come any closer! Don't come any closer!"
He let out a distorted scream, his voice hoarse from extreme fear.
"Ah,"
The Rubik's Cube's cold laughter echoed in the empty space, carrying a chilling aura.
"Weren't you quite proud when you gave the order to massacre people? How come you look like this when it's your turn?"
"How can they, with their lowly lives, compare to me, who possesses noble blood?!"
The lord seemed to have been hit where it hurt, and he roared hysterically, trying to use bluffing to cover up his fear.
"I shouldn't be here... No, this must be, this must be a dream! I'm just having a nightmare! It's just a dream!"
"Do not."
The Rubik's Cube's voice was resolute, shattering his last illusions.
"This is reality, a real space that I truly control. And I am the master of this space."
The lord's condescending "bloodline theory" had pushed the Rubik's Cube, who had barely managed to control his emotions, to the brink of losing control once again. His voice was so cold it could freeze the soul:
"I have to say, you scum are really good at making people blush."
He was even unwilling to touch the lord again, as if he were the most disgusting filth in the world.
He merely glared slightly with his left eye.
An invisible force instantly seized the lord who was lying on the ground, causing him to float uncontrollably into the air.
At the same time, the ground below, which was made of dark red energy grid, began to undulate. The red energy block quickly shaped and bulged, eventually becoming a dark red cross that was large enough to support his body!
Immediately afterwards, three cold, sharp nails, also formed from red energy, appeared out of thin air. With a teeth-grinding whistling sound, they instantly pierced the lord's only remaining hand and his ankles, nailing him firmly to the cross!
"Ah ah ah ah ah--!!!"
Unimaginable pain instantly overwhelmed the lord's mind! This pain far surpassed the pain of losing his arm before, as if it directly affected the depths of his soul. Compared to this, the pain of having his arm cut off was as insignificant as a mosquito bite.
He couldn't help but let out a heart-wrenching wail.
"It's so noisy, turn it down!"
The Lord's voice abruptly stopped as soon as the Rubik's Cube finished speaking.
He was horrified to discover that no matter how intense the pain he was enduring, no matter how much he wanted to scream, his throat felt completely blocked, and he could only make extremely weak, suffocating "ho...ho..." sounds.
"To be able to control it to this extent... you're really weak."
The Rubik's Cube seemed to be commenting on an experimental object, its tone carrying a hint of understanding and mockery.
"My 'Tomyo no Tamashii' will evolve into a different form in Takamagahara. Rather, what is displayed in the real world is an incomplete, weakened version; that is its true form..."
"The Sharingan can only unleash its true power when you have only one pair. Now I finally understand that."
Ignoring the lord's face contorted with extreme pain and fear, he began to stroll leisurely around the cross, his icy voice like a persistent leech, relentlessly stimulating the other's nerves.
"The gravity, oxygen, mass, temperature, and even you yourself in this space... everything is under my control."
This is a genuine, world-changing force. In this confined space, I am the true creator, the rule-maker of this world.
He paused, then walked to the front of the lord, a deeply sarcastic, forced smile seemingly playing at the corners of his mouth beneath his mask.
"But... just like in reality, there are always people who can escape punishment. The stronger the opponent, the harder it is for me to interfere. To interfere with a powerhouse of my own level, it takes a lot of eye power, at least..."
His gaze was as if he were looking at ants.
"It will never be as easy as controlling you."
"You... are truly pitifully weak."
The Rubik's Cube's voice suddenly became even more chilling:
"Don't worry, you won't die so soon. I just said, I'm in control of your body now. I won't let you die so easily. I'll amplify your pain tenfold, a hundredfold, a thousandfold! Then, on the verge of a mental breakdown, I'll pull you back!"
"Letting you watch your own body being truly 'cut to pieces,' letting you savor true despair bit by bit... that's the most suitable way for scum like you to die."
He moved closer, and his Mangekyou Sharingan seemed capable of devouring all light:
"Don't worry, you won't be the first. You're just the beginning."
The Rubik's Cube's voice suddenly rose, carrying an almost fanatical determination:
"Whether it's the Land of Water or this corrupt ninja world, I will change it all! I will turn the entire ninja world into my 'Takamagahara'!"
