Crash!
Suddenly, the corner of the heart that was pierced by the sword turned into a pile of rubble and scattered all over the ground.
"Be careful, it's underground!"
The one who shouted and warned was the White Zetsu Afei, but the one who was actually controlling him was a ninja from the Yamanaka clan.
Gekko Hayate's pupils shrank suddenly, and he immediately put away his sword and retreated, but a hand covered with black tentacles flew up from the ground and grabbed Gekko Hayate's neck.
Immediately afterwards, the ground exploded with a bang, and Kakuzu leaped up, slammed down quickly, stepped on the shoulders of the White Zetsu Afei, and pressed him into the ground, thus avoiding the Nara clan's shadow secret technique.
But just when Jiao was about to retract his tentacles, Gekko Hayate swung his sword and cut off the tentacles.
Kakuzu's hand fell from Gekko Hayate's neck, and Gekko Hayate immediately stepped back, but was still frightened.
Fortunately, he has three sets of breathing systems, otherwise he would have lost his combat effectiveness due to suffocation after his neck was pinched just now.
"As expected of an S-rank wanted criminal."
Gekko Hayate noticed that the hand that fell to the ground was picked up by the touch device again.
At the same time, the White Zetsu Afei regained control of his body, but just after being pulled out of the ground, his body could not move again.
This time he was controlled by the shadow secret technique.
"What a disgusting secret technique!"
The White Zetsu Afei complained, and then said to Kakuzu: "Kakuzu, why don't we retreat temporarily!"
"I have no intention of giving up the mission easily."
Kakuzu took off Akatsuki's divine robe, revealing four inverted masks on his back, and the black tentacles that sutured his skin were untied.
The next moment, three masked monsters rose into the sky from Kakuzu's back and hung in the air.
"What?"
Gekko Hayate and the other three were shocked.
The information that Hoshita Shuichi passed on actually did not contain any specific information about Kakuzu, only a vague idea that he was proficient in the five major escape techniques.
"This thing is dangerous, be careful!"
Nara reminded in a deep voice.
Yamanaka Ichi and Akimichi Torikuni nodded at the same time.
On the other side, Gekko Hayate raised one hand and disappeared.
In the air, two masked monsters suddenly opened their mouths and chakra quickly condensed.
"careful!"
Nara Compass reminds.
The next moment, there was first a raging flame, followed by a ball of wind. The two forces collided in the air, and then exploded, forming a terrible fire storm that covered the sky and the earth.
The three members of Nara Compass retreated immediately and climbed over a courtyard wall, but the next moment the wall collapsed and exploded, and flames rolled over. The three of them retreated again and again, but were caught up and rolled around in the waves of fire, looking extremely embarrassed.
But he finally avoided the moment when the power was at its greatest and was only burned.
Outside the Daimyo's bedroom, Kakashi looked at the raging fire ahead and said, "Yamato, I'll leave this place to you."
Yamato's face appeared on the pillar: "Senior, be careful!"
Kakashi nodded and disappeared into the darkness.
At this moment in the battlefield, the White Zetsu Afei, who had lost the control of the shadow secret technique, was finally free and shouted to Kakuzu: "We should have used this mode a long time ago!"
"idiot!"
Kakuzu snorted coldly, and another masked monster in the air opened its mouth and gathered lightning, then shot towards the White Zetsu Afei.
"Hello!"
The White Zetsu Afei was startled, and the next moment the lightning brushed his ear and rushed straight to Gekko Hayate who appeared behind him.
The Samehada was completely untied, swallowing all the bursting electric light.
He retreated to avoid the scythe of the White Zetsu Afei and became invisible again.
Kakuzu's wind-style and fire-style masked monsters were flying in the air, with wind balls and fire balls whistling and killing the three Nara Compass men, forcing them to flee in a panic without even the strength to fight back.
At this time, Kakuzu sensed the danger, and the masked monster in the air suddenly maneuvered and avoided a short sword that was flying towards him with electric light.
But at this moment, Kakashi appeared in the air, grabbed the White Fang short sword in one hand, and condensed lightning in the other hand, which shot out like a spear, piercing through the lightning masked monster, and then raised his hand and cut it in half.
"What?"
Kakuzu was startled and quickly swung his hand, and the shuriken flew out and headed straight for Kakashi.
But Kakashi's body suddenly disappeared from the air, and then Kakuzu felt an attack coming from behind.
Ding ding ding!
The White Zetsu Afei appeared behind Kakuzu and blocked the flying kunai.
Kakuzu turned around and looked at the kunai flying in circles in the air, but retreated and shouted, "Watch out!"
The next moment, Kakashi appeared in one of the kunai, accompanied by the sound of chidori chirping. Electric light burst out from Kakashi's limbs and wrapped around his whole body. The whole person moved at high speed like a ball of lightning, whizzing past him before the White Zetsu Afei could react.
"So fast!"
The White Zetsu Afei opened his mouth and his head rolled off his neck.
A single strike of lightning broke his neck.
However, Kakashi did not stop at all and went straight towards the retreating Kakuzu.
But Kakuzu had already completed the hand seal at this moment. He opened his mouth and spit out a stream of water that hit Kakashi who was rushing at high speed.
But the next moment, the water column fell to the ground with a bang, and Kakashi appeared on a kunai stuck in the ground.
"He also mastered the same instant body technique as the Fourth Hokage!"
Kakuzu stopped and looked more serious.
At this moment, a loud roar was heard not far away, and then Kakuzu saw his wind-style mask shattered.
Gekko Hayate appeared on the battlefield over there and used his sword Samehada's ability to absorb chakra to resist the attacks of the two masked monsters, allowing Akimichi Torikuni to seize the opportunity and use the Meat Bomb Monster Car to crush the wind-style masked monster in the air.
Kakuzu's heart sank, and he immediately formed a seal to create a water-release clone to kill Kakashi, while he quickly came to the side of the White Zetsu Afei and used his tentacles to help the latter sew up his wounds.
Bang!
The water clone was blown up and immediately turned into a water prison to trap Kakashi, but the next moment Kakashi's body disappeared from the water prison.
"Retreat!"
Kakuzu shouted softly and immediately retreated with the White Zetsu Afei.
The fire-masked monster on the other side released two fire-style covers in a row and then quickly disappeared into the night sky.
"No need to chase!"
Kakashi ordered.
The four members of Gekko Hayate stopped one after another.
Nara Compass said with lingering fear: "These two guys are really difficult to deal with. If it weren't for you, Captain, I'm afraid we would all die here this time."
Yamanaka nodded in agreement, "Yes, Wind Release, Fire Release, Lightning Release, plus the Water Release and Earth Release he used. It is indeed as the intelligence said, he is proficient in five kinds of escape, and the power of each one is amazing."
"There are only three people like this in the village: the Sandaime, Shinnosuke, and Shuichi!"
Akimichi Torikuni said: "And that KouGai Kuohai, this guy, I'm afraid the only way to deal with him is to use the sealing technique, right?"
Gekko Hayate said: "This guy's immortality seems to be even more powerful than last time. No wonder he was able to escape."
Kakashi said: "It is also possible that he was rescued by the Akatsuki organization."
Nara Compass said, "It's not too difficult to deal with that little deer Kuohai, but if you meet that guy called Kakuzu in the future, you have to be extremely careful."
…
Outside the Daimyo's mansion in the Land of Grass, Kakuzu stopped and said coldly to the White Zetsu Afei: "You owe me two hearts!"
White Zetsu Afei laughed and said, "This time it's really thanks to you. It's just three hearts. Just go to Sunagakure or Kumogakure to get them."
"But you were careless this time. We should have sneaked in and assassinated him just now."
It's an afterthought!Kakuzu didn't bother to pay attention to him and continued walking.
White Zetsu Afei immediately followed: "Hey, we have failed the mission now, right? What should we do next?"
Kakuzu said coldly: "Refill the heart first!"
Not enough heart and no sense of security.
…
The reason why Hoshita Shuichi did not split into a spiritual clone to control KouGai, the White Zetsu Afei's transformed form, was because he happened to be at Orochimaru's experimental base.
"Jūgo's cells?"
Orochimaru smiled and said, "Shuichi-kun, with your strength, it shouldn't be a problem to cultivate into Sage Mode, right?"
"Or rather, you have already completed it."
Hoshita Shuichi said: "Senior, you should know that there is still a big difference between Sage Mode and Sage Mode after you have seen the Snake Sage."
"As far as I know, they have all lived from the Sage Of Six Path era to the present. Even if I master the perfect Sage Mode, I can't live for a thousand years."
Orochimaru was shocked when he heard this, and then his eyes became more intense: "You have lived from the time of the Sage Of Six Path to the present day?"
"It's amazing!"
He didn't know this information before.
However, thinking about the Snake Sage I had seen before, this existence is not inferior to the tailed beasts at all.
"It seems there are still secrets hidden in it."
Orochimaru was ready to make a move, but thinking of the power of the snake sage, he suppressed his temper and asked with a smile: "There is nothing wrong with Jūgo's cells, but what do you plan to trade with, Shuichi-kun?"
Hoshita Shuichi smiled and said, "A piece of information, about the information of the Rinnegan, how about it?"
"The Rinnegan?"
Orochimaru's eyes focused: "One of the three great pupil techniques, the eyes of the legendary Sage Of Six Path!"
"Shuichi-kun, you actually have such information?"
"Isn't it some legend?"
Hoshita Shuichi smiled and said, "Senior, do you still remember the three children you met in the Land of Rain with Senior Jiraiya, Senior Tsunade and the others during the Second Ninja World War?"
Orochimaru raised an eyebrow: "Among those three children, could it be that any of them possess the Rinnegan?"
"Did Jiraiya stay here because he discovered the Rinnegan?"
"It seems that Danzo is targeting Akatsuki because of the Rinnegan?"
In an instant he thought of a lot of time.
Hoshita Shuichi said: "The red-haired boy is called Nagato, and he has the Rinnegan."
"And he has the blood of the Uzumaki clan."
"Senior also knows that the power of the first generation and the Uchiha clan's Sharingan have an amazing compatibility. According to the information I have obtained, the ancestors of the Senju and Uzumaki are descendants of Ashura, the second son of the Sage Of Six Path, and the Uchiha clan is the descendant of Indra, the eldest son of the Sage Of Six Path."
Hearing this, Orochimaru couldn't help but lick his lips with his tongue: "I see, this is an amazing discovery."
"So, does that mean that the Rinnegan requires both the power of the Senju and the Uchiha to be activated?"
"However, you have already transplanted the first generation cells into Uchiha Shisui, right? It seems that there are other conditions for opening the Rinnegan!"
"And that kid named Nagato, it seems his Rinnegan isn't his own!"
"interesting..."
Looking at Hoshita Shuichi, Orochimaru asked, "Shuichi-kun, do you want me to join the Akatsuki organization and become a spy?"
Hoshita Shuichi smiled and said: "No, just cooperation in the future!"
Orochimaru chuckled after hearing this: "It seems that Shuichi-kun is playing a big game!"
"I do plan to leave Konoha at the right time, and I am indeed very interested in the Rinnegan."
He was reluctant to leave Konoha.
Because Konoha is changing rapidly now, just like an old tree sprouting again and beginning to flourish.
Unfortunately, the path he wanted to take was destined not to be allowed by Konoha.
So, when he came back from outside this time, he had already made up his mind to leave Konoha and establish more experimental bases outside to achieve his goals.
Looking at Hoshita Shuichi, Orochimaru said: "I can give you Jūgo's cells, but Shuichi-kun, I'm curious, what situation are you in now?"
After hearing this, Hoshita Shuichi thought seriously: "This...if we fight hard, we can kill the First Generation and Uchiha Madara."
Orochimaru was startled, then laughed and said, "It seems that Shuichi-kun has already fought with Uchiha Madara!"
"So the Rinnegan that Nagato's child possesses comes from Uchiha Madara?"
As expected, it's Orochimaru!
Hoshita Shuichi secretly praised and nodded.
"It's getting more and more interesting."
Orochimaru was so excited that he couldn't help but lick his lips and said, "Well, Shuichi-kun, I agree to cooperate in the future."
His intuition told him that Hoshita Shuichi had not yet revealed a lot of information.
…
Coming out of Orochimaru's experimental base, Hoshita Shuichi just remembered the matter of the spirit clone: "Will that White Zetsu guy be sealed away by Kakashi and the others?"
However, after sensing it carefully, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, then separated his spirit and left his body.
As for the safety of Kakashi and the others, Hoshita Shuichi was not worried.
Even if they can't defeat Kakuzu, there won't be any casualties.
After all, Kakashi has Flying Thunder God. Although he is not as proficient in using it as he and his teacher Namikaze Minato, he has the Eight-Tails Chakra, so transferring people is not a problem.
Moreover, Yamato and Gekko Hayate are not weaklings.
The next day.
Kakashi and the others sent back the information, and Hoshita Shuichi also learned about the battle situation last night, which was not surprising.
In this way, the situation in the Grass Kingdom will be temporarily stabilized.
It depends on whether Onoki of the Iwagakure Village can sit still and stay there.
…
Iwagakure Village, Tsuchikage's office.
After hearing the information, Onoki couldn't help but frown: "Akatsuki has also failed."
Kitsuchi said: "According to the feedback from over there, Kakashi, the son of Konoha White Fang, has mastered the same instant body technique as the Fourth Hokage and Konoha Blue Flash. This is much more troublesome than expected."
"Father, you should know that with people like this around, it's basically impossible to eliminate the Daimyo of the Grass Country."
Of course, Onoki knew this, and he gritted his teeth and said, "If this happens, the Grass Kingdom will probably be swallowed up by the Fire Kingdom!"
Kitsuchi looked solemn: "The Daimyo has also inquired about this matter. It is very unusual for the Fire Country Daimyo to intervene."
After thinking for a moment, Onoki said, "Give up for now, but keep a close eye on it."
"Konoha can't keep that Kakashi in the Land of Grass forever."
Kitsuchi was puzzled: "Father, you analyzed before that even if the current Daimyo of Grass Country is eliminated, it will be useless after a long time. Why..."
Onoki said calmly, "It won't work if we just get rid of the Daimyo of the Grass Country, but if we get rid of those who are cooperating with the Fire Country, then there won't be any problem at all."
Kitsuchi was surprised: "This... This might reignite the war with Konoha!"
Onoki snorted, "Konoha won't go to war easily!"
