Kakuzu: Where Should We Go Next!

"It's time to end this!"

On the battlefield, Itachi murmured under his breath. The next moment, bloody tears slid from his eyes, and the already towering skeletal Susanoo changed once more.

Red energy erupted from the Susanoo, then transformed into flesh and blood that filled out the skeletal Susanoo. But it did not stop there. Itachi's ocular power continued to surge until the Susanoo finally settled into its Crow Tengu form.

The Susanoo now looked like an armored warrior.

Whoosh!

Itachi moved, and the half-body Susanoo enveloping him moved with him.

Itachi was incredibly fast. In the blink of an eye, he had already arrived before the two of them.

"Bastard, die!"

With Kakuzu's help, Hidan had temporarily stabilized his injuries. Seeing Itachi charging at them, he did not hesitate in the slightest. He gripped the Bloody March Scythe tightly and rushed toward the red Susanoo.

Splurt!

But at that moment, bright red blood sprayed into the air. Hidan's body had been pierced by a crimson-gold sword.

The sword was formed from crimson-gold energy and looked immensely powerful.

The Totsuka Blade, one of the Shinobi World's three great divine artifacts.

After piercing Hidan's body, the crimson-gold sword gave a sharp flick, and Hidan instantly collapsed to the ground as though he had lost consciousness, falling into a deep coma.

As one of the Shinobi World's three great divine artifacts, the Totsuka Blade possessed an extremely powerful ability: sealing its victims within an illusory world of drunken dreams.

Anyone pierced by the Totsuka Blade would fall into the illusionary world as though they had lost consciousness.

Just like Hidan moments ago, although his body had not suffered much damage, the illusion had already descended upon him. Unless Itachi personally released it, Hidan would never awaken.

"Now you're the only one left!"
