Hidan the Heretic

Hidan, the former Akatsuki member, finally freed himself from the pit Shikamaru imprisoned him in. For seemingly endless days and nights, he struggled to free himself with the power granted to him by Jashin but could not. Once his faith had been slowly eroded by the unending torrent of time and darkness, he began to question Jashin. This led to a silent spiritual war fought in secret beneath the earth, of which Hidan was eventually the victor. And his great heresy vastly multplied his power. His skin is no longer morbid and monochrome but instead bears a blidindingly brilliant exo-skeleton that burns with a violet flame of righteous fury. His triple-bladed scythe has transformed into an iridescent half-halo that hangs above his head, waiting to take yours. He no longer believes in wanton murder. He believes ardently in removing the world of the wicked evildoers that once warped his mind, and there is nothing more wicked in his eyes than a ninja: proud, deceitful, and willing to use their own children as weapons of war. Now he has come for you. He can not be killed. He can not be hurt. He can not be stopped. There is only one technique that can defeat him: Talk No Jutsu! Will you convince him of the error of his ways, or will you fall to his twisted rhetoric and his unforgiving crusade?
