?"Surprised?"
"There used to be ninjas who regarded me as an ordinary puppet master, but now they have all been buried deep underground!"
Although Kakuzu's entire face was covered in a black mask, Yu could completely feel the surprised expression under his mask at this moment, and a hint of Demon's unique madness suddenly emerged from the corner of his mouth.
Dragon's Fang!!
In the sudden contraction of Kakuzu's pupils, Arlong's roaring voice echoed throughout the entire collapsed underground space of Bounty Exchange.
I saw Yu who collided with Kakuzu's fists and suddenly grabbed Kakuzu's wrist. His body rotated in mid-air with Kakuzu's arm as the axis. His right foot, also covered in black Armament Haki, blasted out a strong wind like Tooth of the Ascending Dragon.
Bang!!
There was an extremely dull collision sound. I didn't expect that Yu Taijutsu, as a puppet master, could be so strong.
Caught off guard, Kakuzu used his right hand to block, only to feel a sharp pain in his wrist. The surface of his skin, hardened by the advanced Earth Release ninjutsu, cracked like porcelain. He flew out and hit the wall next to him, causing endless dust to fall.
"Cough cough cough..."
"You're actually injured? It seems that I underestimated you too much, kid..."
Kakuzu flew out and fell to the ground, letting out a somewhat embarrassed cough. He looked down at the fragments of Earth Release's cuticles that were falling off his body, and his face under the mask showed uncontrollable surprise.
Ninja World Five Great Nations has been active since the early days of the establishment of Ninja Village to Kakuzu, who is actually older than Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki of Both Scales, who is currently the oldest person in the ninja world.
In Kakuzu's long and long memory, he had never experienced being beaten so embarrassingly by such a young ninja.
Spatial Transfer!!
However, before Kakuzu could stand up from the ground, he felt his eyes blur as the terrifying figure of Tyrant teleported and appeared in front of him.
Shoot away!!
Immediately afterwards, a giant Kuma palm emerged with energy pads, which magnified infinitely in his pupils. The terrifying elasticity turned the whole person into a beam of light, which instantly shot through all the walls and obstacles in front of everyone.
In everyone's unbelievable eyes, Kakuzu was slapped from the underground space by Tyrant and penetrated to the ground!
"As expected of one of the Akatsuki Immortal Duo..."
"The exquisite Earth Release: Hardening Technique protects the body thoroughly."
A series of violent Dotō-like offensives blew Kakuzu away in an instant. Observation Haki sensed that Kakuzu's body did not receive much damage under the protection of the powerful Earth Release ninjutsu. Yu Amber's eyes flashed, and the figure disappeared instantly.
"Want... want to catch up and take a look?"
Witnessing the sudden Kage Level ninja war between Yu and Kakuzu, the surviving ninjas and ronin looked at each other in shock as Bounty Exchange collapsed underground.
"What the hell! Those two monsters are not on the same level as us at all! Run away!!"
But as soon as the wandering ninja finished speaking, he was scolded by another sword-wielding samurai next to him. Taking advantage of the chaos, a group of ninjas and ronin quickly dispersed.
"Damn it... I still got into trouble with such a terrible guy like Crimson Feather."
"No... you have to leave here quickly and tell the boss what happened."
Looking at the ninjas and ronin fleeing in confusion around them, I saw the responsible Toma Underground Bounty Station covering his severed wrist with one hand, and his embarrassed figure stumbled and disappeared into the ruins.
"Damn little devil!!"
"I'm going to kill you! Take out your heart!!"
Outside the collapsed Underground Bounty Station, unlike the dark and corpse-smelling underground space, the wide road on the surface is filled with the evening sunlight.
I saw Kakuzu, who had been knocked violently from the ground to the ground by Tyrant's palm, stood up again, his body was horribly sunk in, and his dark red and green eyes were filled with anger like will-o'-the-wisps.
"Ah, do you want my heart? You can't do that..."
However, as a cynical voice came, a burst of blue electric light flashed in the air, and the boy with white hair and black clothes stood in front of Kakuzu in an instant.
"As a ninja, one of the biggest taboos is greed."
"You target me because of your greed for money. This is the biggest mistake you have ever made in your life."
He walked leisurely in front of Kakuzu with his hands in his pockets, and looked at Kakuzu who looked very embarrassed in front of him. Yu's calm tone seemed to be stating a simple fact.
Tyrant and Michael, two Demon Puppet wearing black cloaks, stood on the left and right behind Yu like the most loyal guards in the world, ready to go.
"Haha... are you teaching me a lesson?"
He was beaten so embarrassingly by Yu at the first sight. When he heard Yu's somewhat domineering tone, Kakuzu's deep red and green eyes suddenly flashed with green energy, "You know when I fought with you Konoha First Hokage, brats like you weren't even born yet!"
Tentacle Heavy Punch!!
After saying the angry words, Kakuzu took action with anger, using the advanced Earth Release to harden his body and suddenly punched out from the air.
A sharp black shadow flashed in the air, Kakuzu's wrist was disconnected, and a large string of mysterious black tentacles emerged from it. He suddenly stretched out a heavy punch attack, which was no less powerful than Tsunade, one of Legendary Sannin's, and Monster Strength, which was extremely destructive and could easily knock down a wall.
"Is this the legendary secret technique of Takigakure - Earth Grudge Fear?"
Facing the heavy punch Kakuzu used Earth Grudge Fear to suddenly extend from the air, Yu's face was calm, and his amber eyes were shining with an inexplicable light, "It looks really disgusting..."
However, when he heard Kakuzu boasting that he had fought against Konoha's First Hokage Senju Hashirama, Yu couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart.
You must know that there are a total of four ninjas in Hokage who boast that they have fought against great gods - one is the Kirin Ninja Ao who said "I fought against Shisui" (actually he was intimidated by Body Flicker Technique's reputation and ran away without a fight).
One is Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki of Both Scales who "I fought against Madara" (from the very beginning, he was completely suppressed by Uchiha Madara's eye power and aura, and had no power to fight back).
Another one is Hanzo of the Salamander who said, "Three Sannin and I are tied" (Hanzō at his peak was tied with Orochimaru, Jiraiya and Tsuna Teuchi who were just starting out, and he even said very pretentiously, "I give you the name Konoha Sannin").
The last one was Kakuzu who said, "I fought against First Hokage" (he threw a kunai at First Hokage Senju Hashirama from eight hundred miles away, and was defeated by Wood Release).
Five-Color String!!
As he spoke, he saw Yu's hands turn into claws and he grabbed hard forward. Five Haki Imbuement Armament Haki lines immediately cut through the air, directly facing Kakuzu's heavy punch from the air.
Earth Grudge Fear--Takigakure was once regarded as a treasured secret technique. Using chakra to control the black blood vessel tentacles produced in the body, it can be turned into a ninjutsu suitable for long-distance attacks, and it can use tactics that overwhelm the opponent.
Moreover, this black vascular tentacle can also seize the hearts of other people and attract them into the body together with the chakra properties. It can use all the ninjutsu of the five basic properties, making Kakuzu a nearly immortal existence.
Even if Earth Grudge Fear is separated from the main body, it can move its tentacles freely like a living thing. The length and shape can be changed at will to cope with any situation. Kakuzu that activates Earth Grudge Fear has almost no blind spots.
Bang!!
The feather Armament Haki Imbuement's line collided with Kakuzu Earth Release's hardened and erupted fist using Earth Grudge Fear's extension, and there was a heart-wrenching collision sound in the air.
"That's it..."
Seeing that the Earth Grudge Fear punch he released was actually cut off by the sharp thread that Yu grabbed, Kakuzu's will-o'-the-wisp eyes showed a strange color, "Control the thread to fight... is this your Kekkei Genkai?"
