Pakura closed her eyes and concentrated on her soul.
“Control the seven emotions and you will have full control over the six sensations. Control the six sensations and the world will be in your palm.”
That was the mantra that her soul sutra was based off.
She had originally cultivated Lin Feng’s four colour soul sutra and thus with the help of Kaguya, she had managed to modify it so that only the Enthusiasm fire remained.
The fire of Emotion.
The rose red flames burnt quietly within her mind and once in a while tiny pink and gold sparks would flare within it enhancing its beauty.
The first step to building her personal soul sutra would be to separate the seven emotions from the combined flame.
Concentrating on her happiest memory: being proposed to by Lin Feng, she focused on the flame and slowly, the shade of the fire turned violet and a wisp of pure violet flame started separating out.
Encouraged, she redoubled her efforts.
…
Outside the dome, the ninja were steadily chipping away at the defences and making great progress.
Suddenly, Hanzo called a halt and said, “Wait! I can feel a substantial weakening if the Aura of the Kazekage. He is either losing against the Kyuubi or more likely, gathering his strength to defeat it in one shot.”
Onoki frowned, “We still need a lot of time to break through at the current rate… the desert is too big of an advantage for him.”
Orochimaru hissed, “I have a way.”
When everyone turned to him, he shrugged, “It is experimental. I am not sure if it works. I was researching the means of fusing elemental affinities to artificially create bloodline limits but I failed. But, I managed to create combination element jutsu instead.”
Everyone’s eyes widened.
The Mizukage who was normally silent couldn’t contain his shock. “What! That will revolutionize jutsu. Why hasn’t Konoha used it yet?”
Danzo narrowed his eyes. “Have you been holding out on us!?”
Orochimaru chuckled and licked his lips. “Fufufu. How interesting. So, you trust me this little? I’m hurt. How about you, Sarutobi sensei?”
Hiruzen shrugged. “There must have been a reason… likely it is incomplete. But hurry and tell us, we are racing against time.”
Orochimaru laughed. “Well, you are half right. The jutsu is complete but it can only be performed with the collaboration of five ninja with Kage level chakra control. Also, it needs someone with a lot of experience with the five elements to mix the chakras and someone with a kekkei genkai to provide the base as the kekkei genkai are basically combined elements. With the Tsuchikage acting as the base, the chances of success are higher as he has 3 elements merged in his kekkei tota. Also, it needs a secret element.”

Everyone relaxed. With such harsh conditions, it was no wonder it wasn’t used. They were also curious about the secret element.
“So, what do we have to do?” asked Hiruzen.
Under Orochimaru’s direction, everyone rearranged themselves.
All the miscellaneous ninja other than the five Kage were set up in an array according to their elements where they formed a pentagon with the five elements in the five corners.
Only Hanzo was left out as his poison chakra was incompatible.
Then the Tsuchikage used his earth style to create an earth dragon supported by earth ninja with their chakra.
Then the Mizukage used his water style to create a water dragon supported by water ninja with their chakra.
Both hit upon a scroll placed in the centre.
The scroll burst into smoke releasing some of the first hokage’s cells and a huge tree grew in its place fuelled by the mix of water and earth chakra.
Hiruzen used his fire style to create a fire dragon supported by fire ninja with their chakra.
The tree was lit on fire.
Danzo, supported by wind ninja used a wind dragon jutsu to assist the flames and they burnt white hot.
Finally, the Raikage shouted and went into lightning mode absorbing the fire and turning it into lightning with the input of the other lightning ninja.
The lightning around him grew stronger and stronger until he was like a miniature sun.
Only someone with monstrous bodily defences could survive this.
Thus, it could be seen that this jutsu was too overpowered to be used by humans.
Hanzo’s eyes gleamed. This was a jutsu for the Gods. When he captured the Kazekage and learnt his secrets, maybe he would alone be able to use this.
…
Within the dome, Lin Feng noticed the threat from outside.
His eyes widened. There was no way he could support such a strong attack.
He had his Void force and that could tank a hit but the amount was limited and each use consumed it.
He could never support a continuous attack like the one the ninja were fermenting.
The jinchuriki were also providing their chakra so his Void force would never outlast them.
He clenched his teeth and looked at Pakura.
She had six flames circling around her.
Violet – happiness
Indigo – worry
Blue – sadness
Green – jealousy
Yellow – fear
Orange - surprise
She was forming the last of the flames: the red flame of anger and wasn’t to be disturbed.
He had to delay the time.
Setting aside his concentration, he touched the bond and accessed the principle of Karma.
Karma Scramble.
…
The lightning had reached its peak and they could soon fire off the technique.
Suddenly, the jutsu of the ninja suddenly went haywire as they all deviated their direction.
Most of them hit the sand harmlessly, but, Hiruzen’s fire dragon hit the Raikage who was concentrating his utmost to control the vast amount of lightning.
The sudden attack disrupted his concentration and he lost control.
The lightning flew everywhere as he screamed in pain.
He might have a so-called invincible body but he was still mortal.
Many of the bolts hit ninja who had yet to recover from the Karma scramble and injured them.
Forcing all the lightning chakra into his right hand, the Raikage discharged it at the dome.
A thick bolt of lightning seared through the air leaving a smell of ozone.
Even greatly weakened, the bolt nearly wiped out the entire thickness of the dome.
But the Raikage’s arm was burnt to a crisp as well.
With an angry roar he attacked Hiruzen. “You despicable old man! You dare to sneak attack me!!”
Hiruzen hastily dodged with shun shin and wind style defensive jutsu but the Raikage was too fast… his attack too unexpected and he got a lightning clad fist to his shoulder, causing the metallic shoulder plates of his armour to get dented and half melt.
He cast off the hot metal and prepared to fight in earnest but suddenly a purple poison smog appeared in between them and they had to stop if they didn’t want to touch it.
A small amount got on the Raikage’s body and he had to spend a lot of effort to clean it.
The both of them looked to Hanzo with wary eyes.
The man was still in his man-beast combined form and looked like a black-purple small giant with a muscular physique and claws and teeth.
The poison was extremely hard to deal with and they didn’t want to touch it.
Hanzo spoke raspingly, “It is the handiwork of the Kazekage. One of his strange non-elemental jutsus. It somehow disrupted the yin chakra of our jutsu and made them lock onto targets different from what we wished.
“Now is not the time to quarrel among ourselves… we need to attack at once when the man is weakest.”
