Kisame, who had been kicked away by Hagoromo, looked at Hagoromo with disbelief.
Such astonishing force caused even Samehada to feel pain.
Moreover, the thing covering this guy's feet was unusual; he couldn't tell what it was.
"Kisame, if you can't do it, let me do it."
Kakuzu stood aside and said indifferently, after all, the young man in front of him looked to be only ten years old.
Kisame was kicked away like that.
"Kakuzu, don't underestimate this guy." Kisame glanced at Kakuzu, his mouth twisting into a ferocious grin that revealed his shark-tooth teeth.
"This guy is probably the one who defeated the Eight-Tails and the Four-Tails Jinchūriki."
"Oh?" Kakuzu looked at Hagoromo with a slightly surprised expression in his eerie green eyes.
He's been busy with bounty missions lately, and even the information about Hagoromo recorded at the Bounty Exchange only says "kill without mercy."
"It seems the intelligence from the Bounty Exchange is rather weak."
"Well~ I'll deal with this brat first, the other two are yours." Kisame hoisted Samehada onto his shoulder and said to Kakuzu.
"Whatever, but if it's impossible to avoid damaging the body, at least the skull should be preserved."
Kakuzu glanced at Hagoromo first, then slowly walked in the direction where the Yutoshi and Muta had just left.
Hagoromo's gaze turned cold, and she took a step forward, intending to stop him.
Boom--!
A dark shadow sliced through the air and pierced straight at the Hagoromo, its spikes piercing through the bandages.
Hagoromo took a deep breath and threw a punch.
Thud--
The shadow came as fast as it flew away.
"Hehe, you're very strong!" Kisame looked at Hagoromo with great excitement, his shark teeth on his mouth seeming to be thirsting for blood.
"Kirigakure Kisame Hoshigaki, the second Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist of the Mist, known as the Tailless Tailed Beast, right?"
Kisame was taken aback, his expression turning grim as he stared at the Hagoromo before him, whose true form had been revealed in a single glance.
This guy--
Hagoromo straightened up; this time, he didn't intend to stop him.
The Kunai sliced through his palm, and the Hagoromo swiftly formed hand seals, slamming down onto the ground.
"Summoning Technique!"
Pop! A plume of smoke rose up, Kisame watched with great curiosity until the smoke dissipated.
A fat cat appeared in the spot, which startled Kisame, who had been waiting expectantly.
"Sansan, catch up with the Yutoshi and Muta, and protect them."
Before Sansan could speak, Hagoromo gave the order.
Sansan nodded without hesitation, glancing at Kisame's figure before leaving.
This human has an enormous amount of Chakra!
Kisame watched Sansan leave, then looked at Hagoromo, "You're very confident?"
As he finished speaking, Kisame grinned, revealing a mouthful of shark teeth. "Chakra would really like your Samehada!"
Boom--
The snow on the ground suddenly burst up, and a figure rushed directly towards Hagoromo, so fast that only a visual afterimage remained.
With a twist of her Hagoromo braced herself with one hand and left her position.
With a puff of his mouth, he spewed out scorching flames from his throat, "Fire Style: Fire Dragon Bullet!"
The flames, carrying a scorching effect, hurtled straight towards Kisame Hoshigaki.
"Oh!"
Kisame lightly, swiftly forming hand seals and shouting, "Water Release: Water Formation Wall!"
The snow beneath his feet surged up instantly, transforming into a thick wall of water under the influence of Chakra nature, blocking his path.
The moment the fire dragon projectile struck, a large cloud of steam billowed out.
Kisame, behind the water wall, was unharmed, his eyes blazing with intense excitement.
Hagoromo didn't expect to defeat Kisame with a single Fire Style, especially since Fire Style is countered by Water Release.
With one hand raised, he communicated with the ground beneath Kisame's feet, causing it to soften and liquefy.
Earth Release: Earth Release: Earth Flow River!
As Hagoromo slammed his palm into the ground, the liquefied soil formed a river that carried Kisame's feet.
"Hmph! A mere trick!"
Kisame struggled to steady himself, stomped his foot on the mud, and a surge of powerful Chakra instantly flowed through it.
Water Release: Exploding Water Colliding Wave!
Centered on Kisame, a violent circular wave of water exploded out like a fountain, propelling Kisame's figure upwards and freeing him from the mudslide.
Kisame looked at the Hagoromo on the ground, his smile growing increasingly sinister, and then a wave of water rushed towards the Hagoromo.
"I'm increasingly curious to know just how delicious your Chakra will be!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Kisame, holding Samehada's hilt in one hand, swung it fiercely at Hagoromo.
The Samehada sword, which was aimed at Hagoromo, suddenly opened, revealing a huge mouth full of sharp teeth.
Instantly, a powerful, suction-filled wave exploded, and an invisible vortex began to tear at Hagoromo Chakra's body.
Hagoromo calmly looked at the ugly Samehada, then covered his entire body with Yang Release Armament, instantly making it impossible for the terrifying suction force to find a place to bite.
Hagoromo grabbed Samehada with both hands and took a deep breath.
"Yang Release Armament: Monster Strength: Third Gear!"
"Drink--!"
Hagoromo immediately gathered her strength and tore outwards with both hands, determined to destroy the sword in front of her!
"Na--Nani!"
Kisame realized something was wrong because Samehada was sending him signals of pain, so he increased the force in his hand and tried to pull it back.
"Trying to leave? Too late!"
Sizzle--
Kisame shuddered, his gaze fixed on Samehada, which had been torn in two.
How is that possible?
He had never seen anyone able to tear Samehada apart. After all, once someone touched Samehada, that person's Chakra was as easy to collect as if it were something in a bag.
Taking advantage of Kisame's momentary daze, Hagoromo turned around, bent over, and used her momentum to drag the unwilling Kisame and slam him hard to the ground.
To be honest, ever since she slammed the Four-Tails like that, Hagoromo really likes this move.
Boom--
The entire ground shattered instantly as Kisame's body fell, sending countless snowflakes trembling up.
Regaining his senses, Kisame ignored the stinging pain in his body and was about to get up when...
Hagoromo stomped heavily towards him.
"Heavenly Foot of Pain!"
BOOM!
A tremendous sound erupted, and the land surrounding the dense forest collapsed instantly, as if by an earthquake.
"Uh--cough cough!"
Not far away, Kisame, who had barely escaped, knelt on one knee and spat out a mouthful of blood. The broken wound on his ribs looked rather gruesome.
Call--
Call--!
Kisame was panting heavily, his whole body like a leaky bellows.
The Samehada hilt, torn in two, lay limply in Kisame's hand. He glanced down at his wounds and didn't hesitate.
He directly used the Chakra Absorption Technique to absorb the Chakra Samehada previously absorbed.
As Kisame moved, his previously limp Samehada tensed instantly, emitting a silent howl.
It's as if they're questioning Kisame about why he did this!
Kisame's face was extremely gloomy. If he hadn't been injured, he wouldn't have used his remaining Chakra to recover.
Now that Samehada has lost its last remaining Chakra, there is no possibility of it recovering!
