With his arm broken off, most of Jōnin's strength was gone, and he could no longer fully exert his strength.
Kakuzu only killed one Jōnin by firing the Chakra beam, which was indeed a bit disappointing.
But the goal was achieved and the strength of the Root Ninja was severely damaged.
One Jōnin was killed directly in the battle, one Jōnin was seriously injured, and the Elite Jōnin was also injured.
Once Senju Orange Water arrives and joins Kakuzu, they will be able to take out all the remaining Root Ninjas.
Although the Chakra beam cannon released by Kakuzu now cannot be compared with Kakuzu in the later period of the original work.
But it is also an extremely powerful form of ninjutsu.
If an ordinary Jōnin is enveloped by it, he will almost certainly die, and there is no way for him to survive.
Even if an elite ninja is hit directly, it is still difficult for him to survive.
The reason why two Root ninjas survived.
That's because they have a lot of ninja tools on them, especially various defensive ninja tools.
Through the observation of the Eye of Insight, Jiraiya saw very clearly that when the light beam was about to hit them, the three masters of the Root directly summoned a large number of defensive ninja tools, thereby consuming some of the energy of the Chakra beam.
Moreover, after the Root of Death Jōnin summoned the defensive ninja tools, he knew that the defensive ninja tools alone could not withstand the attack of the Chakra beam, and it was too late to use offensive ninjutsu to fight back, so he directly used an extremely powerful sealing technique, which required the cost of his own life.
The sealing technique directly sealed away more than half of the Chakra contained in the Chakra light column.
This caused the power of the Chakra beam to drop sharply, and the Elite Jōnin and Jōnin quickly performed defensive ninjutsu to survive.
The Root Ninja who performed the sealing technique made the most correct decision without any hesitation and sacrificed his own life to buy time for his companions.
The reason why he was so decisive was because he was brainwashed by Danzo and no longer valued his own life. Completing the mission was the only meaning of their existence.
If he hesitated for even a moment, he would lose the opportunity to perform the sealing technique.
The result is that only the Elite Jōnin has a chance of surviving, and the other Jōnin will definitely die.
And even if the Elite Jōnin survived, they would definitely be severely injured.
"The Root Ninjas are truly emotionless war machines."
Jiraiya commented in his mind.
He stretched out his hand, and the Thunder Blade returned to his hand through the traction of Chakra.
When the barrier was about to heal, Kakuzu rushed in from the valley and entered the barrier.
It is impossible for Kakuzu to use Chakra beam as a means of attack continuously.
This type of attack consumes a huge amount of Chakra and places a heavy burden on his body.
It can only be used once a day at most. If it exceeds this limit, his body will not be able to bear it.
Since he could no longer attack from a distance, there was no need for Kakuzu to hide in the dark anymore.
Now that Kakuzu has rushed into the barrier, it can be said that the barrier completed by the Root Ninja has been destroyed.
Even if the Root Ninja has now completed the barrier, it will no longer be able to function.
Because the barrier requires them to constantly release Chakra to maintain it.
There was no way Kakuzu would just let them stand there, releasing Chakra to maintain the barrier.
Danzo heaved a sigh of relief when he saw a strange-looking ninja rushing into the barrier.
It seemed that he only had one reinforcement, which was still within his psychological tolerance.
He had been worried just now that Jiraiya had arranged a lot of reinforcements here.
Already thinking about whether to retreat.
Now that he saw that only Kakuzu showed up, Danzo wasn't going to stay here.
Although one of his Jōnin was killed and another was injured, the number of ninjas on his side still far exceeded that of Jiraiya and his men. By coordinating the attacks, they were still able to kill Jiraiya and the unknown ninja, but the pressure was much greater than before.
"You just need to hold them back. There will be an Elite Jōnin who will come to assist you later. Then you can work together to take them down."
Jiraiya ordered to Kakuzu.
"I can take them out by myself, I don't need anyone else's help."
Kakuzu said coldly as he looked at the Root Ninja, and saw his body begin to squirm, and one by one, masked monsters crawled out of his body.
"Kakuzu, I can give you double the bounty he gave you."
After Kakuzu performed his secret technique, Danzo immediately recognized Kakuzu.
Danzo led the Anbu and the Root, and the amount of intelligence he collected was innumerable.
Danzo was certainly aware of what a famous bounty hunter like Kakuzu was capable of.
Of course Kakuzu has five hearts.
He doesn't know.
He knew that Kakuzu was an extremely difficult person to deal with and also loved money like his life.
So Danzo wanted to use money to persuade Kakuzu to rebel.
After all, bounty hunters only care about money, and they will obey whoever offers the highest pay.
"Money is a good thing, and I like it very much, but after I kill you, I can also get the money from you."
Kakuzu responded.
His soul is now sealed by Jiraiya.
Life and death are controlled by Jiraiya.
So there is no way he would betray Jiraiya.
No matter how much money Danzo pays.
There was no way he would agree.
Because as long as he nodded in agreement, Danzo's money would be used to buy his life.
"You may not know who this old man is."
"I am Danzo of Konoha Village, and I control most of the power in Konoha. If you cooperate with me now to kill Jiraiya, I can give you more money than you can count."
"If you kill me here now, the money you can get is just a drop in the bucket."
"And you don't have the strength to kill me."
"I have always valued talent. As long as you are willing to cooperate with me to kill Jiraiya, I can even send Konoha Shinobi to help you avenge Takigakure."
Danzo continued to seduce.
Kakuzu was a traitor to Takigakure and held hatred towards the village, which he naturally knew.
"Head hard."
"Suppression."
Danzo's answer was two extremely terrifying ninjutsu.
The blazing fire waves and fierce winds bombarded Danzo together.
The Elite Jōnin of the Root, the injured Jōnin, and the Jōnin who had been staying next to Danzo, all activated ninjutsu at the same time and began to counter the attacks launched by Kakuzu.
Jiraiya turned into a shadow, and the Thunder Blade in his hand emitted an astonishing lightning light, and rushed towards Danzo.
"Jiraiya, you have risen very quickly, and I do feel threatened by you, but you are not my opponent at the moment."
Seeing Jiraiya rushing towards him, Danzo said indifferently, forming seals with his hands, and an extremely huge wind blade tore through the air and slashed towards Jiraiya.
