"That's enough."

Scorpion's voice turned cold.

The mechanism behind Third Kazekage Human Puppet unfolded, and puppet arms popped out from both sides of the body, and in a blink of an eye, they were densely covered above the alley.

Each mechanism arm is equipped with blades, poisonous needles, and holes for hidden weapons, surrounding Kakashi in layers.

"Thousand Hands Manipulation."

The dark machine arms pressed down from all directions, blocking all Kakashi's evasion routes.

Iron Sand Needle Rain hasn't dispersed yet, the puppet arms have already been connected to surround and kill.

The mechanism completely seals the space and crushes the target with numbers.

Kakuzu looked at this move and his voice was low.

"Scorpion is really serious."

Orochimaru's eyes fell on Kakashi.

"So, Mr. Kakashi, how many things do you still have hidden?"

Kakashi's breathing finally became heavier.

The consumption of Chakra caused by Sharingan, the high-intensity maintenance of Chidori Blade, and the physical burden after continuously dodging Iron Sand Needle Rain were all piled up at this moment.

But he didn't stop.

He held Kunai backwards, his left eye Three Tomoe locked the gaps in all the machine arms, and the lightning in the palm of his right hand surged.

The sound of birdsong erupted from his entire arm and the front of his body.

"Lightning Cutter!"

Blue and white lightning illuminated the alley, and Chakra was crushed into a thunder blade by Kakashi.

Countless machine arms came to strangle him.

Kakashi Take one step forward, and lightning is everywhere.

The first row of puppet arms were instantly cut open.

The second row of mechanical blades shattered in front of Lightning Cutter.

Before the third detoxification needle could be sprayed out, it was turned into burnt black debris by the high temperature of Lightning Release.

Kakashi was wrapped in lightning, shattering all the puppet arms, and went straight to kill the scorpion.

The lightning broke through Thousand Hands Manipulation, Orochimaru and Kakuzu retreated at the same time.

The two of them did not hesitate in their movements. One slid out of the alley against the wall, and the ground beneath the other's feet collapsed. They retreated to the roof of the abandoned warehouse, directly avoiding the explosive edge of Lightning Cutter.

Kakashi was wrapped in lightning and rushed into the black puppet arms. Chidori Blade on Kunai cut through mechanisms, poisonous needles and hidden weapons all the way. The blue and white electric light illuminated the entire alley, and even the walls were left with charred cracks from the aftermath of Lightning Release.

But Orochimaru didn't even look at Xie.

Neither does Kakuzu.

They had already determined that nothing would happen to Xie Xie and had no intention of helping him.

Kakashi's heart sank.

As fellow members of the organization, Orochimaru and Kakuzu are too indifferent, and they should not react at all when faced with a close range attack by Lightning Cutter.

"No..."

Kakashi's Sharingan rotated, and the lightning penetrated the scorpion's body.

No blood spurted out from the "Scorpion" hit by Lightning Cutter, only sawdust, iron pieces and broken mechanism parts were scattered.

The body was cut off by lightning from the chest to the shoulders. The interior was filled with dense puppet structures and was not a living person at all.

Kakuzu stood on the roof and said coldly, "No need to look, that guy won't die that easily."

Orochimaru chuckled, "Kakashi-kun, your Lightning Cutter is very fast. Unfortunately, the puppet master is always in need of a substitute."

The real scorpion moved far away out of thin air.

The large robe on his body tore apart, and his figure under the puppet shell was completely exposed.

There was no panic on that excessively young face. Chakra Threads was connected to Third Kazekage Human Puppet between his fingers, and black Iron Sand was slowly surging behind him.

"White Fang's son is harder to kill than I thought."

Scorpion's voice was cold.

"But that's the end of it."

Kakashi landed on one knee. The lightning in his right hand had not completely dissipated, and there was a stinging pain in his left eye.

Just now Lightning Cutter forcibly broke through Thousand Hands Manipulation, which seemed to have the upper hand, but in fact it consumed a lot of money.

Sharingan could not be turned off, Chidori Blade continued to maintain, Lightning Cutter erupted again, and a large part of Chakra had been taken out of his body.

Kakuzu looked at Kakashi's disordered breathing and said in a low voice, "His Chakra can't hold it anymore."

Orochimaru nodded.

"If someone other than Uchiha uses Sharingan, he would have to pay a huge price. It's good that he can hold on until now."

Kakashi ignored their comments and only stared at Scorpion.

Three S-rank Rogue Ninja, none of them are easy enemies to deal with.

Now he was exposed among the three, his escape route was blocked, and support had not arrived. Chakra was being dragged down by Sharingan and continued to be consumed.

The most troublesome thing is that Scorpion no longer retains it at all.

Third Kazekage Human Puppet rose slowly, and black Iron Sand continued to pour out from the puppet's mouth, sleeves and mechanism behind it. It first covered the sky above the alley, then broke through the waste walls on both sides and spread in all directions.

A loud noise was heard.

The wall was shattered by Iron Sand, half of the roof of the abandoned warehouse collapsed, and the originally narrow alley was blasted into an open battlefield.

Iron Sand condensed into a pair of huge black wings in mid-air, Third Kazekage Human Puppet was suspended beside the scorpion, and densely packed Iron Sand Cone extended from the bottom of the wings, with cold light layer after layer, and the number was so large that it made people feel chilled.

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes.

"Magnet Release Iron Sand is indeed the signature of Third Kazekage."

Kakuzu looked at the already disturbed neighborhood in the distance, and said in a bad tone, "There was too much movement."

"I can't hide it anymore."

Scorpion raised his finger, and Iron Sand formed several huge pillars in the air. The pillars rotated and made a dull sound. The sand, gravel and metal fragments on the ground were attracted by the magnetic force, and followed the black Iron Sand to fly up.

He looked at Kakashi, the murderous intent in his voice getting stronger and stronger.

"Since you can't hide it, then kill him head on."

Kakuzu's green pupils fell on Kakashi's left eye, and he said coldly, "Even if the mission fails, getting this Sharingan is not in vain."

Orochimaru smiled even colder.

"I also want to see how far the body of Kakashi, the transplanted Sharingan, can endure."

Kakashi gritted his teeth, put his feet on the ground and retreated, Lightning Release Chakra concentrated on his right hand again.

He couldn't let the battle drag on to where the villagers gathered, let alone let the three people leave Konoha smoothly.

But Xie didn't give him time to think.

"Iron Sand, giant needle."

Scorpion presses with five fingers.

In mid-air, black wings spread out, and dozens of giant Iron Sand Cone shot down towards Kakashi.

The first pointed cone hit the ground, causing the entire area to shake.

Earth and rocks flew everywhere, deep pits were dug into the ground, and cracks spread in all directions.

Kakashi turned sideways, his shoulder brushed against the black sharp cone, and his sleeves were torn instantly.

The second, third, and fourth poles fell one after another, and the roar was louder than the last. The empty space originally filled with building materials was smashed into pieces. Smoke, dust and black sand were mixed together, and even the sight was blurred.

Kakashi relied on Sharingan to predict the impact point and kept dodging between cracks and gravel.

His movements are still precise, but every time he dodges, his breathing becomes heavier.

Kakuzu watched him struggling to survive between the giant needles, and said coldly, "If this continues, he will be exhausted by Sharingan himself without us taking action."

The scorpion did not stop.

"Iron Sand Giant Pillar."

The black Iron Sand was compressed in mid-air, and a thicker Iron Sand Giant Pillar was formed, which smashed down towards Kakashi with wind pressure.
