Despite Kakuzu's best efforts to maintain his balance, the distance between his head and the ground was getting closer and closer.
Shinji knew that the broken sword in his hand couldn't break through Kakuzu's Earth Release defense, but if he could send his blood into Kakuzu's body for internal destruction, there was a high chance that he could successfully kill Kakuzu.
But at this time, the two separated masked monsters had already released their attacks.
Shinji had two choices: one was to use his immortality to withstand the attacks and try to take down Kakuzu.
But in that case, he would face the endless pursuit of Konan and the Akatsuki organization.
The second choice was to try his best to protect himself and give Kakuzu an unforgettable lesson!
Almost in the blink of an eye, Shinji made a decision: there was no need to fight to the end for something that had no benefits.
So he jumped high, avoiding the sea of fire and lightning below.
At the same time, Kakuzu was controlling the black threads in the sky to attack Shinji in the air.
Shinji certainly knew that he would become a target in the air, but that little bit of time was enough.
Blood Manipulation Technique: Blood Swirls and Clouds!
Slitting his wrist, the blood that he had been saving was sprayed out without care, and then condensed into blood blades in the next moment, rushing towards the bottom.
The outer shell of these blood blades was very hard, and the inside was high-speed flowing blood, making them extremely sharp!
Swish, swish, swish...!
Countless black threads were cut off in response, unable to resist at all.
Then, Kakuzu and the figures of the two masked monsters were all submerged in it.
When Shinji landed on the ground again, the ground in front of him was a mess, as if it had been cut into pieces.
Looking at Kakuzu again, his clothes were tattered and he looked embarrassed.
The broken black threads hung weakly in the air, and blood was constantly flowing from the corners of his mouth...
As for the two masked monsters, needless to say, they were directly cut into pieces.
By this time, Kakuzu had been destroyed by a total of three hearts.
If he hadn't tried his best to protect the wind-attribute heart on his back, he would have been no different from ordinary people at this moment, and what would he be considered an 'immortal ninja'?
At this time, Kakuzu was both surprised and angry!
With only the main body and the wind-attribute heart left, he had almost no chance of winning, and he had been hit by that strange 'ninjutsu' before, causing him to be unable to move, and he would faceplant as soon as he moved.
Maybe he was really going to capsize in the gutter today!
Shinji looked at the miserable Kakuzu, thinking about whether to risk anemia for a while and give this guy another hard one...
As a result, a paper spear flew over space and roared.
With a bang!
Shinji leaped backward, and a big pit was blown out of the ground.
"This power... there are explosive tags hidden inside."
At the critical moment, Konan, who had been shaken off just now, finally rushed back.
Shinji weighed it and turned to retreat, but before leaving, he left a meaningful sentence.
"Relying on your numbers, huh? Just wait, I'll go back and call for backup too!"
This time, Konan didn't chase after him again.
Because she didn't have the confidence to keep the other party, and she wasn't sure if this was the other party's old trick.
If it happened again, she might really have to collect Kakuzu's body.
And what if what that guy said was true?
If the other party had companions, and their strength was not weak, wouldn't she be throwing herself into the net?
There was no need to put herself in danger for an irrelevant person, especially at this time when the organization's grand plan was about to unfold.
"How are you?"
"I won't die."
Kakuzu replied in a bad tone, he was certainly not targeting Konan.
But after suffering such a big loss and losing so much face in front of Konan, he couldn't be expected to have a smiling face at this time.
Konan certainly wouldn't argue with Kakuzu, but just asked again, "Can you still walk?"
"I don't know."
Kakuzu frowned, his heart even more depressed.
"Try walking a few steps."
Kakuzu had no choice but to nod, and then raised his foot, landed...
Splatter!
Another faceplant.
Konan: "."
Kakuzu: "."
It was really speechless!
"Forget it, I'll take you from the air." Konan shook her head.
"There's no need, I don't believe that the effect of any ninjutsu can last forever."
Kakuzu wanted to preserve his last stubbornness and self-esteem.
Konan frowned, "If that guy really went to find helpers, we might not be able to leave later."
"Heh, do you think I'm afraid of him! Let him come, the more the better, just right to replenish my missing hearts."
Don't ask, it's just stubbornness!
Even Konan could see that Kakuzu was strong on the outside but weak on the inside at this time.
However, Kakuzu's role in Akatsuki was still quite large, and he couldn't just give up like this.
So she changed her approach.
"In a short time, the organization will launch that plan, don't cause trouble at this time... Hmm? Pain has a new order, let us go back immediately."
Kakuzu slowly straightened his body, his expression solemn, "Then there's no way, let's go, let's go back first. But next time we meet, I will never let that guy go!"
Konan rolled her eyes obscurely, but didn't say anything.
After a while, Konan, waving her paper wings, grabbed the embarrassed Kakuzu and flew away with difficulty.
The sudden appearance of such an unstable factor near the Land of Rain naturally needed to be informed to Nagato.
As for what Pain's new order was...
Konan made it up, and Kakuzu knew it well, but sometimes what was lacking was just such a step that everyone knew.
So it was said that the ninja world was not about fighting and killing, but about social skills.
On the other side, Shinji really went back to find Hidan.
However, Hidan hadn't recovered from his injuries at this time, and his combat power was weakened.
Shinji thought about it, and it wasn't certain that he could catch up again if he went back now, and finally gave up regretfully.
He also didn't understand why the system didn't trigger a few quests.
If there was wool to shear, he would have to carry Hidan and fight Kakuzu to the end!
Hidan didn't even have to move, just lie in the drawn ritual pattern, he was responsible for taking blood and feeding it to his mouth, and then pfft pfft he would stab him a bunch!
Alas, what a pity.
"What's wrong with you, shaking your head for a while, grinning like an idiot for a while... Did someone hit your head?"
"Hidan, do you know what the common point between the head and the butt is?" Shinji suddenly asked.
"What's the common point?"
"They both have a mouth."
"."
"Next time, remember to speak with the mouth on top, otherwise I'll help you switch it to the bottom."
Hidan's face flushed red, his eyes furious.
But considering the difference in strength, and the bastard's character of doing what he said, Hidan decisively chose to listen this time.
If the upper and lower mouths were switched, he felt that he might as well die.
