God-Tier Kazekage: Building the Ultimate Hidden Sand Village

Boom!

A massive plume of smoke suddenly erupted.

"Hiss! Hiss!"

A thick, dark purple forked tongue emerged from the smoke, revealing glimpses of a crimson-scaled body.

"What is this... A human actually summoned me?" A deep, resonant voice echoed from within the smoke.

Then, without warning, a scarlet snake tail shot out from the smoke like a streak of red lightning, lashing straight toward Sōmi.

Bang!

The snake tail collided with a golden sand wall that had risen from the ground, producing a deafening explosion.

"Hmm? A human... with some skill!"

The deep voice sounded again, this time tinged with a hint of surprise.

Sōmi could now clearly see the creature he had summoned.

It was a colossal crimson serpent, its yellow eyes gleaming with a predatory menace.

However, its right eye socket bore a charred gray scar, as if it had been struck by lightning long ago.

Atop its head was a prominent triangular crest that extended backward along its skull, giving it an imposing and majestic appearance.

Its gaping maw revealed two razor-sharp fangs, while its forked tongue, like two conduits, rested between its jaws.

Sōmi instantly recognized it—this was Shinga, a serpent even larger than Manda.

"Ah..."

Sōmi sighed quietly. Clearly, this creature had no intention of engaging in a friendly conversation. He had no choice but to resort to "physical negotiations."

After all, unlike Naruto, he didn't have the "strongest genjutsu," the infamous Betsutenkuchi, to rely on.

After blocking Shinga's tail attack, Sōmi planted the Starfall Rod firmly into the ground and formed a series of hand seals.

A rumbling sound echoed from beneath the earth, and the ground began to churn like boiling water. The solid surface transformed into swirling golden dust in an instant.

Shinga's single eye flashed with a ferocious glint. Betrayed by humans long ago, the savage serpent had sworn to kill every human who dared to summon it.

Hiss!

Opening its massive jaws, Shinga spewed a thick stream of dark purple venom, which shot toward Sōmi like an arrow released from a bowstring.

Sōmi raised his right hand slightly, and a thick golden sand wall, two to three meters high, erupted from the ground in front of him, shielding him completely.

Sizzle! Sizzle!

A pungent stench filled the air, a testament to the venom's extreme toxicity.

The venom clung to the sand wall's surface, corroding it with fierce intensity, emitting plumes of strange-colored smoke.

Crack... Crack...

To Sōmi's astonishment, the venom caused the golden sand wall to gradually solidify, its surface turning grayish-black. The serpent's venom possessed petrifying properties!

"Roar!"

Failing in its surprise attack, Shinga's eye gleamed with a vicious light. Its massive body suddenly stretched upward, its head rising high like a coiled spring being pulled taut.

In the blink of an eye—

The fully extended serpent body contracted with explosive force, its enormous head hurtling down toward Sōmi with the weight of a falling boulder.

Boom!

Golden sand erupted into the air like a dazzling firework display. Sōmi had conjured another massive golden sand geyser to intercept Shinga's dive.

"Hiss!"

A flicker of pain flashed in Shinga's eye, but its ferocity remained undiminished. It opened its jaws wide, intent on tearing the insolent human who dared challenge its authority limb from limb.

But Sōmi wasn't about to give it the chance. His hands moved swiftly, forming seals one after another. The scattered golden sand around Shinga began to swirl and rise.

In an instant, the swirling sand coalesced into a massive golden fist, which clamped down on Shinga's head, forcing its gaping mouth shut with brutal force.

From a distance, it looked as though an ancient giant, locked in battle with the monstrous serpent, had used its mighty fist to seize the serpent's head.

At the same time, Shinga's body sank slightly, as the ground beneath it had silently transformed into a vast, soft vortex of golden sand.

The funnel-shaped sand vortex slowly swallowed Shinga, and through the corner of its eye, the serpent noticed the ground's transformation.

To its shock, the spinning vortex suddenly erupted like a volcano, spewing a torrent of glittering golden sand.

The golden sand surged toward Shinga's massive body in thick streams, wrapping around it like sturdy yellow ropes, binding the serpent tightly.

Gradually, as more and more golden sand accumulated, Shinga's entire body was engulfed in the roaring golden tide.

At that moment, Sōmi's hand seals changed once more. The golden sand surrounding Shinga began to stretch and reshape, forming a pyramid.

Though the pyramid's color wasn't particularly vibrant due to the sand's low density, its structure was imposing.

In an instant, countless black runes, like swarms of ants, emerged from the ground and climbed up the pyramid's surface, leaving behind intricate sealing patterns.

Standing atop his golden cloud, Sōmi ascended to the pyramid's peak.

He had deliberately left an opening at the tip of the pyramid, through which he could see Shinga's restrained crimson head.

"So, are you ready to talk now?" Sōmi asked coldly.

"Human! Even if your strength surpasses mine, do you really think this is enough to make me submit? How naïve!" Shinga hissed, its voice filled with defiance. Its single eye flickered with fear at first, but soon it was replaced by a mocking glint.

Sōmi maintained his icy expression, staring directly into Shinga's serpentine eye. He watched as the mockery in its gaze slowly turned into terror.

"What's wrong? Realized you can't dispel the summoning technique?" Sōmi said, striking directly at Shinga's thoughts.

"Human?! You... You can block the summoning technique?" Shinga's voice was now filled with shock.

"Looks like it's been a long time since you were last summoned. Or perhaps your previous master wasn't skilled in sealing techniques..."

"Shut up, human!" Shinga's voice suddenly grew sharp and shrill, as if Sōmi had inadvertently touched a deep scar in its heart.

"Fine, I don't care what you've been through before."

"Since I've summoned you, you have only two choices: become my summoning beast..."

"Or die!"

"And not just any death. You'll be trapped within this pyramid, your flesh slowly eroded by the wind and sand. You'll watch as your body withers away, inch by inch, until you meet your end..."

"Of course, given your vitality, this process could take a very long time. You'll have plenty of time to savor the despair and solitude before death finally claims you."

Sōmi's voice was like the chilling whisper of a ghost from the depths of the underworld, cold and devoid of any emotion.
