Chapter 99 – The Law of Repulsion and the Law of Attraction
The violent and domineering repulsive force blasted Uchiha Dali away, and in that exact instant, a familiar system prompt echoed in his mind.
[You have sensed the power of repulsion. Your understanding of it has rapidly deepened. You have comprehended the Law of Repulsion!]
[Law of Repulsion: Allows you to easily control the repulsive forces of the heavens and the universe. The strength of the repulsion depends on your physical constitution and chakra reserves.]
Faced with Tendo Pain's Shinra Tensei, Uchiha Dali's heaven-defying comprehension enabled him to instantly grasp a power of the same nature.
And this power—just by the sound of it—seemed even more formidable than what Tendo Pain was wielding.
Tendo's Shinra Tensei had a five-second cooldown.
But Uchiha Dali's version? No such thing!
"Hmph…"
After quickly adjusting his balance midair, Uchiha Dali launched an immediate counterattack.
He acted according to the newly gained knowledge in his mind, retaliating against Tendo Pain with the same type of repulsive force.
First, he teleported behind his opponent using Flying Thunder God. Then, the repulsion surged forward like a crashing tidal wave, brutally slamming into Pain.
Tendo Pain had just used Shinra Tensei and hadn't fully recovered yet.
Caught completely off guard, his eyes bulged, his spine caved in, and he was sent flying.
"Tendo!"
Konan's expression changed drastically at the sight.
But the very next moment, her body stiffened slightly, freezing in place.
The enemy had already appeared behind her—like a ghost.
"It's not good for a cute girl like you to be a villain, you know."
Uchiha Dali smirked playfully, then raised his hand. A powerful repulsive force exploded from his palm, instantly blasting Konan dozens of meters away.
Everything happened far too fast—too abruptly.
It was only now that Uchiha Obito finally reacted.
Seeing just how overwhelmingly powerful this man was, his pupils shifted, and he immediately activated Kamui against Uchiha Dali.
"That move won't work on me—I already saw through it!"
Grinning mischievously, Uchiha Dali appeared beside Obito with ease. Not only did he dodge the Kamui effortlessly, but he also stabbed at him with a kunai.
However, the kunai passed right through Obito's body as if he were nothing more than a projection—completely intangible.
"That attack doesn't seem to work on me either."
Obito responded coldly as a black chain covered in sealing talismans appeared in his hand.
It was a chain with powerful sealing capabilities.
If ensnared by it, one would be sealed away for eternity.
Under normal circumstances, Obito would never resort to this move so readily.
His combat doctrine was simple: kill if you can; if not, use the Sharingan to control.
Now, however, he had drawn his true trump card.
A clear indication of just how seriously he regarded Uchiha Dali.
"Banshō Ten'in!"
Seeing that Obito had launched a counterattack, Tendo Pain immediately followed up, their coordination seamless.
His Banshō Ten'in unleashed an intense gravitational pull, instantly restricting Uchiha Dali's movement.
This provided the perfect opening for Obito to launch his sealing strike.
In the distance, the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, was utterly stunned by the battle unfolding before him.
As a Kage-level shinobi, he was more aware than anyone else of just how terrifying these unknown intruders were.
Even if he had stepped in to fight one-on-one, he wasn't confident he could win.
Especially the masked man with the Vortex spiral mask—he had taken Yagura down in a single instant.
Though it had been due to being caught off guard—he hadn't expected the enemy to be a powerful member of the Uchiha clan.
But that's the brutality of war.
The enemy won't play fair, and even the smallest mistake can be fatal.
Even now, the memory left Yagura shaken.
What shocked him even more was the man who called himself Uchiha Dali. At this very moment, against three overwhelmingly strong opponents, he not only held his own—he did so with ease!
What kind of monster was this?
"Wait… he said his name is… Uchiha Dali??"
Suddenly, something clicked in Yagura's mind.
He finally remembered who this man truly was.
During the Third Shinobi World War, Kirigakure had dispatched a large force into the Land of Fire.
And there had been a man named Uchiha Dali.
An outrageously powerful figure, known across the battlefield as "The Man Who Surpassed Shisui of the Body Flicker."
According to intelligence reports at the time, even Kirigakure's elite Seven Ninja Swordsmen had suffered a devastating loss at his hands—four dead, three severely wounded.
Later, Uchiha Dali went on a killing spree across the battlefield, utterly decimating Kirigakure's surprise assault units, wiping out multiple combat squads entirely.
In the end, Kirigakure had no choice but to retreat from the front lines and was forced to sign a ceasefire agreement with the Land of Fire.
"So he really is Uchiha Dali…"
Yagura's eyes flickered with disbelief and awe as he watched the man weave through the battlefield, effortlessly taking on all opponents.
The strength that Uchiha Dali displayed deeply humbled him.
Even he, the Fourth Mizukage, likely wouldn't last more than a few exchanges against such a monster.
Just then, Yagura also recalled the intel gathered by Kirigakure's Anbu.
After crushing Kirigakure's forces, Uchiha Dali had moved to other battlefields, where he went on to annihilate the ninja troops of both Iwagakure and Kumogakure.
According to reliable sources—
Even the Fourth Raikage of Kumogakure, leading hundreds of elite ninjas himself, had been forced to retreat by Uchiha Dali.
That battle alone left Kumogakure severely weakened, with over hundreds of elite shinobi lost.
And ever since then, Kumogakure's troops also pulled out of the Land of Fire, quietly signing their own ceasefire agreement.
"No wonder he was able to end the Shinobi World War single-handedly…"
Watching Uchiha Dali dominate the battlefield, Yagura could only stare in stunned admiration.
Uchiha Dali, of course, was unaware of all these thoughts or the awe others had for him.
Just as Tendo Pain launched his Banshō Ten'in on him, another system prompt rang out in his mind.
[You have been affected by gravitational force. Your understanding of the Law of Attraction has deepened significantly. You have comprehended the power of the Law of Attraction!]
[Law of Attraction: You can freely manipulate gravitational forces for offense, defense, and more. The strength of this power depends on your physical constitution and chakra reserves.]
One Shinra Tensei had granted him mastery over the Law of Repulsion.
Now, one Banshō Ten'in had given him insight into the Law of Attraction!
All that's left to say is—who the hell can even compete with that?!
