Violent Blood Leech Girl

"Is he the guy who's been tailing us for months? His aura does seem different from ordinary wandering ninja."

The youth codenamed 'Suzaku' spoke, scrutinizing Kakuzu.

"Kakuzu, an S-rank rogue ninja from the Hidden Waterfall Village. He possesses the secret technique Jiongu, which allows it to steal the hearts of others. Not only can he use them for himself, but he can also achieve 'immortality' through this technique..."

A masked youth spoke, directly stating Kakuzu's key information, giving his companions a general understanding of him.

"Immortality? I'll see if he's truly immortal!"

A curious, clear, cold female voice spoke. The pattern on her mask was a leech with three eyes, but the color was outlined in blood red, giving a visual impact.

After speaking, the girl rushed forward alone, completely disregarding the reactions of her other companions.

"'Blood Leech' is still as impatient as ever."

The speaker's voice was very rough, like a loudmouth. The pattern on his mask was a hornless, one-footed bovine.

"After all, among us, only 'Blood Leech' and 'Suzaku' dare to 'charge' so recklessly without considering any consequences..."

The youth who first discovered Kakuzu spoke, stating a fact in a very calm tone.

"What? 'Yinglong', are you envious of their abilities?"

The youth who had previously stated Kakuzu's information spoke, his voice somewhat childish.

The youth called 'Yinglong' looked at him, gazing at the mask on his face with a pattern of a two-horned, white-boned bird, and then slowly said, "'G雕', you should know that our abilities are bestowed by those above. We have no choice. And each of us has a specific role, so I won't envy 'Blood Leech' and 'Suzaku', because I don't want to 'take' their 'codename'..."

"'Yinglong', as expected, you still have that personality. You always speak so seriously, it's really boring."

The youth codenamed 'G-Eagle' said with a bored expression.

"'Yinglong' is right. We are a complete group. As long as everyone does their job well, we will be invincible, and the tasks assigned by those above will be perfectly completed!"

The rough voice came from the mouth of the 'Kui Niu' masked youth. He very much agreed with what 'Yinglong' said.

"Hey! 'Blood Leech' and that Kakuzu are about to fight!"

At this time, the clear voice of the girl codenamed 'Tengshe' rang out, and then her gaze fell to the place where 'Blood Leech' and Kakuzu were not far away. 'Kui Niu', 'G雕', 'Yinglong', and 'Suzaku' also looked over at the same time...

The impatient 'Blood Leech' arrived in front of Kakuzu in a few breaths, blocking his path. The blood-colored eyes under her mask were filled with a hint of bloodlust. She looked at Kakuzu in front of her as if she were looking at a superior prey.

Kakuzu stopped. He looked at the masked girl in front of him, his brow furrowing subconsciously, because he felt a strong sense of malice.

"60 million taels."

Kakuzu spoke abruptly, causing 'Blood Leech' to be stunned for a moment.

"What 60 million taels?"

'Blood Leech' asked, puzzled.

"In the past few months, you have taken on a total of 30 million taels worth of million-level bounty missions, and now the bounty on each of your heads on the black market is 5 million taels, so you need to pay me 60 million taels. Only in this way will it not waste my time finding you, and you can live for a while longer..."

Kakuzu spoke, acting as if he were handling official business. After all, rogue ninja like the six of them, who have the potential to 'appreciate' in value, naturally need to wait until their bounty is higher before reaping their heads. Killing them now would be a bit of a loss...

"Only in this way will I have a reason to let you go."

However, after Kakuzu's words were spoken, 'Blood Leech' didn't seem to care. She said to Kakuzu, "So you're a person who wants money more than life..."

After speaking, 'Blood Leech' stretched out her right arm, rolled up her sleeve, revealing an arm full of scars. Then, under Kakuzu's gaze, she gently used the fingernails of her left hand to heavily scratch the skin of her right arm, and suddenly bright scarlet blood flowed out quickly...

"Then I'll send you to die!"

As 'Blood Leech's voice fell, the blood flowing from her right arm suddenly turned into a cloud of Blood Mist, enveloping herself. Then, she rushed towards Kakuzu with lightning speed that was invisible to the naked eye, and then punched Kakuzu's face!

Kakuzu didn't have time to react at all. His body was uncontrollably smashed to the ground by 'Blood Leech's punch, making a deafening sound. His body was deeply embedded in the ground.

"Cough cough! How is this possible!"

Kakuzu crawled out of the sunken ground. He coughed a few times with difficulty, and then muttered to himself in disbelief. The masked girl's speed and strength were simply inhuman!

"Oh?"

'Blood Leech' looked at Kakuzu, who was slowly getting up, with a surprised expression. Ordinary ninja with weak physiques would be directly seriously injured by her punch, but the latter obviously didn't seem to be in any serious trouble!

"Can only say that he deserves to be an S-rank rogue ninja? Or is it the reason for his 'immortality'?"

'Blood Leech' muttered.

"But how will you deal with the 'Blood Mist' that you've already been contaminated with?"

'Blood Leech's ability is activated by relying on 'blood'. Her general attack mode is divided into two steps. The first step is to use 'Blood Mist' to bless herself, gaining doubled speed and strength, and the second step is to inject 'Blood Mist' into the enemy's body during the previous step's attack, and then begin to devour the enemy's blood and chakra...

"Fire Release: Headhunter Hardship!"

As Kakuzu, who had been wandering in the Shinobi World for many years, was shocked and surprised by 'Blood Leech's speed and strength, he would not be frightened by a masked girl. So he immediately used ninjutsu, spraying a sea of flames from his mouth, directly covering 'Blood Leech'...

"That guy's physique is very unusual. He seems fine after taking a punch from 'Blood Leech'."

A frivolous voice came from 'Suzaku's mouth, with a look of surprise.

"Is this the powerful physique that comes with 'immortality'? He has already made my 'pets' eager to try!"

In the depths of his eyes, visible beneath the 'G-carved' mask, rice-grain-sized insects crawled back and forth, creating a bizarre spectacle.

"But 'Blood Leech's 'Blood Mist' should have already been planted. It just depends on when he reacts..."

'Yinglong' analyzed. 'Blood Leech's 'Blood Mist' requires a certain amount of time to erode, so the intensity of the erosion is directly proportional to the time. The longer the time, the higher the intensity of the 'Blood Mist' erosion, and naturally the greater the damage to Kakuzu!

Neither 'Tengshe' nor 'Kui Niu' spoke, but they both kept a close watch on Kakuzu, especially when the latter unleashed a large-scale Fire Release ninjutsu. A hint of joy appeared in their eyes simultaneously.

'Blood Leech's' 'Blood Mist' loved it most when enemies were performing techniques, as that was when the chakra within their bodies was at its most active…

'Blood Leech' watched Kakuzu complete his ninjutsu and spew Fire Release towards her. She showed no intention of dodging, instead staring intently at him, seemingly anticipating some kind of change.

Kakuzu, having completed his Fire Release, wore a puzzled expression. He looked at 'Blood Leech', who was already engulfed in flames, confused as to why she would have such a strange 'suicidal' reaction. However, before long, his expression suddenly darkened. His heart, modified by the [Jiongu], was beginning to break free from his body in the form of a 'mask monster', completely against his wi
