Chapter 176: The Power of Killing at First Sight
"Ah, if you fight like this, aren't you afraid that you won't be able to leave the body?" Saemon said jokingly, looking at the huge smoke and dust in the air.
The amount of money paid by the exchange office will also vary according to the degree of the body of the bounty ninja.
This information was learned by Saemon after he followed Kakuzu to the exchange office a few days ago...
Although he has only joined the Akatsuki organization for a few days, he still knows a thing or two about the strength of this partner Kakuzu who is known as the immortal body. Like today, he directly split into two demon clones and attacked with full firepower. He has never seen it before.
Kakuzu didn't even look at Saemon, and quickly retracted his tentacles underground. He couldn't help but cursed: "Idiot, it seems that you have stayed in the closed Rain Village for too long, and you know nothing about the monsters that have risen in the ninja world in recent years!"
"... Forget it, just don't forget the target of this hired mission, just more than one."
Speaking of the mission, Saemon suddenly remembered something. Just when he wanted to distract himself to take a look at the battle under the rock, he immediately heard countless air-breaking sounds in the smoke and dust that had not yet dissipated in the air.
Swish, swish, swish.
A large number of Flying Thunder God Kunai, like locusts, densely passed through the smoke and dust, pouring towards Kakuzu and the others.
This black mass of Kunai that fell from the sky, just visually, there is a sense of oppression and suffocation.
Because the number is too terrifying, let alone these are sharp kunai with sharp blades, even if they are replaced with some stones, I am afraid that the weight alone is enough to crush any flesh and blood ninja to death.
The two did not dare to hesitate and hurriedly retreated.
Ding Ding Ding.
Ding Ding Ding Ding.
The sound of the shuriken sword rain falling to the ground was like hail, ringing continuously.
This continuous sword rain lasted for nearly ten seconds before it stopped. At this time, the ground was already filled with densely packed Flying Thunder God Kunai. You can see that large areas of rock and soil on the ground even cracked under the attack, and sand and dust were flying continuously.
In the smoke and dust, a broken rock wall several meters high, although covered with Flying Thunder God Kunai, barely maintained its standing posture. Behind the wall were naturally Angle and Zuoemon with cautious expressions.
Originally, the two wanted to choose to avoid the sword rain, but they did not expect that the range and effect of Minato Namikaze's shuriken shadow clone technique were too terrifying. This continuous sword rain with tens of thousands of swords was simply unavoidable.
As a last resort, Kakuzu used the rarely used earth escape defense ninjutsu, Earth Flow Rock Wall, to resist.
In fact, ordinary shuriken shadow clones naturally cannot reach such a scale.
This time, Minato Namikaze relied on the huge amount of chakra in the Sage Mode to make the sword rain so powerful. If this ninjutsu is to be redefined, it would be more appropriate to use the multiple shuriken shadow clone technique.
And the earth escape used by Kakuzu is naturally not an ordinary earth flow wall to block the continuous attack of tens of thousands of sword rains.
The defense of the earth flow rock wall is strong, mainly because this ninjutsu can take advantage of the geographical advantages. It is the most suitable to use this move in the valley area surrounded by rocks and soil.
The attack was thunder, but Kakuzu and the others understood that it should be just a tentative attack at present.
The sword rain just stopped, and Kakuzu was still sensing the movements of Minato Namikaze outside the wall, while Saemon, not far behind him, took a short breath. Now he has long lost his previous reckless mentality.
At this moment, a blond figure suddenly appeared out of nowhere behind Saemon.
A cold light flashed, and the sharp sword blade that flashed by instantly split Saemon into two pieces.
Is he attacking? So fast!!
Kakuzu and the wind and thunder demon clone beside him turned around and looked behind them, but they saw that Saemon, who was split into two pieces, did not bleed at all, but turned into two pools of water scattered on the ground.
It turned out to be a water clone?
Namikaze Minato was slightly surprised. He really didn't expect that Saemon could replace his original body with a water clone before he made a move. You know, even if he was in the entire ninja world, it would be difficult to find a few people who could react in advance and respond to his speed. What's more, judging from the surprised reaction at this time, there was no possibility that his attack intention was predicted in advance.
Of course, these were just a momentary thought. Minato Namikaze, who failed to kill Saemon, naturally turned his attention to Kakuzu again.
At the same time, the mouth on the mask of the Wind Style Demon clone beside Kakuzu suddenly opened wide.
Huh.
In the dry air around, a violent wind circle suddenly rose.
This wind circle, like a tornado, protected Kakuzu and the Wind and Thunder Demon in the center, forming a wind wall-like defense.
The formation of the wind circle instantly separated Minato Namikaze and Kakuzu from the middle. Obviously, after seeing Minato Namikaze's ghostly speed, Kakuzu immediately realized that he had to avoid the Fourth Hokage's close approach.
In fact, Kakuzu's Wind Style is actually the Wind Style Suppression Ninjutsu, but it is another form of application of this ninjutsu, similar to a high-level enhanced version of the Wind Killing Formation.
The tornado that suddenly rose from the ground quickly blew away a large number of kunai stuck on the ground outside, while the surroundings of Kakuzu and the demon clone inside were as calm as usual.
Immediately using wind escape defense was the fastest reaction Kakuzu could make.
But he didn't expect that all this was just in vain.
Because the wind circle defense he created did not work at all, Minato Namikaze appeared in front of him again soon.
With a look of confusion and shock, Kakuzu felt a sudden pain in his chest. He looked down and found that the tip of a Flying Thunder God Kunai, which was shining with electric arcs, had sunk into his heart.
And Minato Namikaze, who was holding a kunai, had a cold face.
"What on earth is going on?"
As the pain gradually intensified, Kakuzu suddenly glanced at the several Flying Thunder God Kunai beside his feet, and then gradually thought of something.
Ironically, the wind and thunder demon in front of him was still maintaining a protective formation in front of his body.
Although Minato Namikaze used the Flying Thunder God Technique of Hatsumi-sama to accurately knock out one of Kakuzu's hearts, his purpose was certainly not limited to this. He suddenly increased the power of the lightning arc wrapped around the trident kunai in his hand, intending to instantly blow up Kakuzu's entire body with lightning escape.
Because he knew Kakuzu's ability, there should be three hearts in the body of the original Kakuzu now...
On the other side, although Kakuzu suddenly lost a heart, he quickly responded with his years of combat experience.
The Wind and Thunder Demon clones in front finally reacted. The Thunder Demon clone turned its head back at the fastest speed, and the mouth under the mask suddenly opened, and several thin and long Thunder Electric currents shot out indiscriminately.
In the Sage Mode, Minato Namikaze's perception power was fully opened, and he could detect the Thunder Electric current attack behind him without turning his head.
As a last resort, he had to give up the strategy of blowing up Kakuzu's body and use Flying Thunder God to escape instantly.
Because it was an indiscriminate attack, the Thunder Demon's several thin and long lightning attacks naturally shot several fatal blood holes in Kakuzu's body again...
It must be said that the advantage of age really made Kakuzu's combat experience different from ordinary people.
Because of the pierced earth escape heart, the original earth escape body was about to lose its vitality completely. Under such circumstances, Kakuzu actually thought of using his dying body to attack his original body with his Lightning Style Demon Clone, forcing Minato Namikaze away and making full use of the remains of his dying Earth Style body...
