Xin started doing something strange, and Hanzo wasn't sure what to make of it.
But soon enough, Hanzo realized just how wrong he'd been.
"Patrick is Art!
Xin raised his hand above his head, palm facing the sky.
A purple-blue sphere, composed entirely of concentrated lightning chakra, formed in his hand. It wasn't very big-about the size of a large bowl-but the amount of chakra contained within it made everyone's heart race.
This can't be good!
As Xin flashed a smile, he hurled the sphere toward Hanzo, shouting:
"Time to blow up!"
Hanzo's pupils shrank, and it felt like his heart stopped. It was as though some invisible force had just grabbed hold of him.
What kind of jutsu is this?
It looked incredibly dangerous!
Xin's chakra-infused sphere made both Tsunade and Shikaku uneasy, and they instinctively stepped back a bit.
Better stay clear of whatever's coming.
Even the Anbu, known for keeping their cool, widened their eyes in shock as they watched the sphere fly toward the Rain Village's walls.
There's no way I can let that thing hit the wall.
That was Hanzo's first thought.
Despite the sphere's size and less-than-impressive appearance, the immense chakra it held was enough to send a chill down anyone's spine.
Xin had been itching to test out his new technique, and the Rain Village seemed like the perfect opportunity.
"Water Style: Water Wall!"
Hanzo wasn't sure what kind of attack Xin was launching, but he knew one thing: he couldn't let that thing hit the walls. If it did, it would spell disaster.
As Hanzo formed hand seals, a massive wall of water rose up, protecting the Rain Village's outer defenses.
Hanzo's Water Style was impressive, and the wall he summoned looked like a waterfall crashing down to shield the village. But would it be enough to stop Xin's lightning attack?
Xin doubted it.
The purple-blue sphere shot toward the wall at lightning speed. In a flash, it tore through the water wall like it was nothing, slamming into the village's outer defenses.
"BOOM!"
A thunderous explosion rocked the village. A massive mushroom cloud of smoke and debris rose into the sky, and the screams of those caught in the blast echoed through the air.
A blur of movement shot away from the explosion-Hanzo. His speed was legendary, and few could match him in raw agility.
