The Purpose of Putting Distance Between Them...

Shino and Yugao are facing an opponent who, relying on his immortality, rampages recklessly.

Faced with such an enemy, even the experienced Shino was somewhat at a loss for a moment.

Fortunately, the other party has a somewhat reckless and easily angered personality, which may be their only chance of winning...

"Hey, you woman over there," Hidan yelled, "That sword strike you just gave me really hurt!"

He rubbed his neck, a nonchalant expression of annoyance on his face.

He stood there casually, completely oblivious to the enemy's presence, moving his neck as if nothing was wrong. Just now, Yugao's sword had severed half of his neck along with his cervical spine, and now there was no trace of the injury.

In Yugao's eyes, Hidan was practically riddled with weaknesses, making her uncomfortable unless she landed a few blows. However, her opponent was immortal, possessing extraordinary regenerative abilities, making her an enemy beyond the comprehension of ordinary understanding. What might be considered a weakness in the conventional sense could simply be a trap deliberately set by Hidan to lure the enemy into attacking...

Faced with such an enemy, conventional tactics have become completely ineffective, and Shino and Yugao currently have no good way to deal with him.

Therefore, faced with Hidan's provocation, Yugao and Shino could only remain silent.

Seeing their lack of response, Hidan's expression grew even more contemptuous, and he shouted, "What? Where's that momentum you had when you were attacking me? You can't even handle one strike?"

He glanced at the two silent Anbu, who remained unfazed by his repeated provocations, simply staring intently at him. He knew that his limited vocabulary would never provoke them.

"Since you're not going to cut us down..."

He suddenly picked up the three-edged scythe and slammed it into the ground, creating a crater.

"Then I'll attack!"

Wielding a massive scythe, Hidan's face contorted with rage as he charged toward the two figures before him with an ominous air!

The second round of the battle has begun.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Sakura Haruno, who had deliberately drawn the battlefield away from Shino and Yugao, dodged several of Earth Spear and, seeing that the distance was far enough, stopped her escape.

Boom--!

"Nintaijutsu: Guarding Foot!"

By precisely controlling her Chakra in her legs and reinforcing every fiber of her muscles, Sakura Haruno unleashed terrifying power.

She stomped her foot heavily, her frenzied destructive force crushing the Earth Spear Kakuzu was trying to raise into countless clumps of mud.

He stomped on and broke a Ninjutsu.

The girl snorted coldly, her green eyes fixed on Kakuzu, seemingly waiting for his next Ninjutsu.

"..." Even seasoned Kakuzu were speechless at the sight of such an effect.

Could he really crush an Earth Spear with a single stomp? He was usually very confident in his Earth Release, but now he was starting to doubt whether the core of his Earth Release had broken down.

"Monstrous Strength Technique, huh... Tsunade's disciple, truly lives up to his reputation." Kakuzu said calmly.

It sounded like admiration.

But when Sakura saw his arm, which she had shattered with her punch, being stitched back together into the shape of an arm with the help of black tentacles, she felt that his words were more of a sarcastic remark.

The Monstrous Strength Technique strength, though immense, was ultimately useless against him.

"Likewise, your Earth Release is quite good too." She said calmly, the Yin Seal had already been quietly opened, and abundant Chakra surged and swirled within her body. The Ice Release Kekkei Genkai made the girl's voice sharp, cold, and indifferent.

Despite the girl's icy demeanor, Kakuzu smiled.

A chilling smile.

"I'm not just good at Earth Release..." he said with amusement, glancing at the battlefield again, "So you've decided to fight here? Don't worry, my Ninjutsu won't affect them before I take care of you. After all, the complete corpses of ninjas with names and reputations like you are worth a lot of money!"

His words seemed to convey an overwhelming sense of victory, as if Sakura Haruno's body were something easily within his grasp.

Kakuzu truly believed he had figured out Sakura's fighting style: incredibly fast Body Flicker Technique combined with a powerful close-range attack using Super Monstrous Strength Technique, a combo that would indeed be troublesome for most people. Minato Namikaze, back in the day, relied on his unparalleled Body Flicker Technique to dominate the entire Shinobi World.

So, the part of the document Danzo gave him that was blacked out should be the Ice Body Flicker Technique and the Monstrous Strength Technique, right?

Of course, Kakuzu speculates that she also possesses considerable Wind Release at mid-range, serving as a supplementary attack method when facing opponents who are difficult to approach...

In this way, Kakuzu, who uses flexible black lines as the main body of his body and is not afraid of Monstrous Strength Technique, and is full of confidence in Ninjutsu clashes, has indeed established himself as invincible.

Unfortunately, that's the case.

All guesses were wrong.

The Body Flicker Technique attack that Sakura just revealed is certainly a major focus of her combat system, but it is only a part of it.

If one thinks her skills are limited to this, then it can only mean that Kakuzu was indeed somewhat misled by Danzo.

If Sakura knew about this, she'd probably be both amused and exasperated. Whether Danzo tricked her or helped her is really hard to say!

"You seem to think you've already defeated me..." the girl said coldly. Her aura, though not as intense as Kakuzu's, was clearer and sharper, holding its own in Kakuzu confrontation. "I don't know where your confidence comes from."

"I just want to remind you that keeping the battlefield at a distance isn't because I'm worried your Ninjutsu will affect them..."

She lowered her eyelids, glancing out of the corner of her eye at the water sphere in her palm, which was controlled with exquisite precision.

"... but I'm worried that my Ninjutsu will affect them!"

The murderous intent in his voice was chilling to the bone!

Water Release: Wind Blade Torrent!

At the same time, Chakra, who had already sensed that she was secretly gathering Kakuzu and preparing to use Ninjutsu, also used his own Ninjutsu at the same instant!

"Should I try using Wind Release Ninjutsu against you...?" The thought flashed through Kakuzu's mind the moment he noticed Sakura Haruno making a move to use Ninjutsu.

He instinctively used Fire Release Ninjutsu, which counters Wind Release ninjutsu, to meet the attack head-on.

"Fire Style: Great Dragon Fire Technique!"

Then, a thin, silvery-white line appeared, slicing Kakuzu's Ninjutsu, along with Kakuzu himself, in two with an absolutely unreasonable and ruthless manner!

Boom--

The powerfully severed Great Dragon Fire Technique exploded in mid-air, and under the illumination of the huge fireball, Kakuzu's body, broken in two, lay sprawled on the ground.

Whether it's Ninjutsu level, power, structure, or elemental advantage/disadvantage, Wind Blade Torrent is more than enough to overwhelm Kakuzu's Great Dragon Fire...

Such a clash of Ninjutsu naturally ended with Kakuzu's complete defeat and death.

It can only be said that Kakuzu's life was Danzo...

Although.

He has more than one life.

The Wind Blade Torrent cleaved Kakuzu's body in two with overwhelming force. Sakura thought the battle was over, but the Kakuzu Chakra's body left her bewildered.

"What's going on..." The girl stared wide-eyed at Kakuzu's body, which should have been dead but was now moving restlessly. "How could he still be alive after being cut in half like that?"

Her delicate eyebrows furrowed tightly.

Sakura's tone was filled with disbelief.

She could never have imagined that such an enemy existed!
