Who Knows Hidan's Suffering
"Crack!"
The entire Ramen Shop was torn apart by the suddenly rising, flowing wall.
"Pa pa pa pa!" The terrifying high-pressure wind spheres instantly ripped apart most of the flowing mud wall, sending countless clumps of mud flying everywhere.
"Ding!"
The Scroll in Sasori's hand had already fallen, and the new humanoid Puppet's black arm, crafted from Iron Sand, blocked the scythe.
His other hand opened, and the Incantation for the Summoning Jutsu appeared, sending several Kunai tied with Exploding Tags flying out.
"Chi! Swish!" Hidan's triple-bladed scythe grazed Sasori's arm, tearing his clothes and cutting open a part of his arm, revealing the hollow inside. Faced with the exploding Kunai, he was forced to pull back, dragging the scythe with him, and backflipped to avoid the Kunai, releasing his grip and letting the scythe spin in the air.
"Step!"
The instant he landed, he gripped the scythe, blocking the longsword thrust by the Puppet.
"Damn it! Kakuzu, this guy is my most hated opponent!" he roared, gripping the scythe with both hands and forcefully pushing the Puppet back. "Hurry up and deal with that brat!"
"Do you still have time to waste words?" Sasori flicked his fingers, and a lion-shaped Puppet, placed in the corner long ago, shot out, opening its mouth full of sharp serrations and clamping down forcefully.
"Puchi!"
Blood splattered, and Hidan's chest and abdomen were directly bitten through.
"Noisy."
Sasori's slashed arm drooped down, and he opened his other hand, connecting five Puppets with Chakra threads, and looked towards the battlefield beside him.
His body had to be a Human Puppet in order to use Puppet Technique and Summoning Jutsu, unable to be crafted from Iron Sand like the new Puppets.
In fact, obsessed with Human Puppets, his actual combat power had declined compared to his former self. Human Puppets could release the techniques they possessed in life, but they sacrificed the Puppet's own resilience, and Human Puppets were limited by the strength of the materials, unable to be improved too much.
After all, destroying too much of the structure would cause even the techniques from their previous life to disappear.
Therefore, after he left the Sand Ninja Village, apart from the Third Kazekage and himself, there were hardly any noteworthy works. Faced with the Chikamatsu Ten Puppets, the Puppet Performance of a Hundred Mechanisms would be defeated like cutting melons and vegetables.
The orthodox Puppet Master should be like the one controlled by Chiyo, fighting through ninja tools, Sealing Jutsu, and Scrolls. Only thinking about using the power of the materials from their previous life was a heretical path for a Puppet Master.
Now that he had picked up the Iron Sand Puppets again, he had lost all kinds of strange and bizarre techniques, but he had also regained much of his strength from when he was still human.
"..." Kakuzu's clothes were already torn, revealing the stitched marks all over his body. Four differently shaped masks, surrounded by black threads, were standing on either side of him. He glanced over, seemingly without any emotion towards his companion being dismembered.
"Chi!" The ground suddenly burst open, and black threads directly dragged the divided Hidan underground. When he emerged again in the distance, this guy had actually returned to his original state.
[As expected, he's immortal...]
Sasori watched quietly.
"You bastard, really—" Hidan, in a disheveled state, was about to curse, but his body was kicked away by Kakuzu.
In the air, several Exploding Tags on his back were rapidly burning.
"Boom!"
Smoke and dust filled the air, flesh and blood flew, and half an arm landed at Kakuzu's feet. The black threads lurking underground quietly collected the remains.
"I told you not to be careless. Facing the two of them, rushing straight up will definitely cost you your life."
Kakuzu said, focusing his attention on the rapidly deforming Earth Flow Wall.
"Damn it!" Hidan's head landed askew in the distance, dragged like garbage by the black threads, still raging impotently.
His Jashinism secret technique was really a bit powerless against Puppets that had no flesh and blood at all.
"Roar!"
"Akatsuki, you guys, one after another..."
Lin Ke's calm voice, along with the gale and beast roar, rang out. The smoke and dust were blown away in an instant, and a huge Earth Dragon, with a wingspan of more than ten meters, rose into the air.
"You're really irritating."
Before the words finished, Kakuzu's expression changed drastically. He leaped up with the four masked monsters and shouted, "Be careful of the shadows!"
Dense shadows had already infiltrated their surroundings under the cover of the smoke and dust, and began to attack in sync with Lin Ke's voice.
Hidan had just been stitched back together and was a bit slow on the uptake, immediately getting overwhelmed by a large number of shadows.
Especially the five Eight Gates shadows leading the charge, their speed was already faster than his. As the slowest member of the Akatsuki, his speed of only 7 couldn't compete with the Eight Gates shadows barely reaching speed 8. He was kicked away in a single exchange. His Taijutsu skills were very strong, and his Chakra was super abundant. His specialized Jashinism secret techniques could directly kill people, but...
No one's frontal combat Taijutsu could face five enemies who were faster than him, unafraid of death, unafraid of injury, and immune to Genjutsu.
In addition, dozens or hundreds of ordinary shadows, only slightly slower than him, surged up. His newly stitched-together body didn't last even a second before being torn apart again. Only his head and the hand wearing the ring were carried by the Eight Gates shadows as they jumped onto the roof.
Gaara, Kankuro, and Temari could definitely understand Hidan's feelings.
I was caught so quickly, this doesn't look good.
Kakuzu stood on the roof, glanced at the Earth Dragon flying into the sky and Lin Ke high above, then refocused his gaze on the surrounding swarm of shadows.
"Crack~" The mask representing Fire Release and the mask representing Wind Release opened simultaneously.
"Boom!"
Compound Ninja Art: Flame Wind Turbulent Wave—"Such an intense Chakra reaction?!"
Centipede, with a serious expression, directed his three subordinates to evacuate the client. He himself jumped onto the roof, rushing towards the commercial district where the explosion originated.
He had just informed Lord Sasori of Lin Ke's location a few days ago, and now a battle suddenly erupted. If it was...
He felt a bit nervous. The feeling of being instantly killed was far from forgotten. If Lord Sasori and Lin Ke were really in conflict, it seemed he could only sacrifice himself.
The battlefield was surrounded by fleeing civilians, and several collapsed buildings were billowing smoke.
Anxious, Centipede quickly arrived at the battlefield. When he saw the dense shadows on the street, his heart sank halfway. Then, he saw a monster covered in stitches surrounded by the shadows, and his mood immediately turned for the better.
Before he could observe more closely or find Sasori's location, he saw two of the mask-wearing monsters next to the stitched-up freak simultaneously open their mouths. Immediately after, the most explosive Chakra reaction he had ever witnessed appeared. A terrifying high-pressure wind sphere, wrapped in seawater-like flames, almost covered half of Nikko Shukuba.
Crap! Centipede formed hand seals at the fastest speed of his life, trying to escape.
"Glug glug glug~"
Countless bubbles rose from the ground, enveloping the sea of fire and the gale, and exploded in mid-air.
"Boom!!!"
