"Six hundred billion pieces... Six hundred billion pieces Explosive Tag..."
Kakuzu sat slumped behind the bunker he had barely built with Earth Release, looking up at the area in the sky that was completely swallowed up by the endless explosions Kakkō and thick smoke, muttering unconsciously in his mouth, his eyes empty, as if his soul had been sucked away.
As Shinobi World, who has lived for nearly a hundred years and has an unforgettable understanding of the value of money, he knows exactly what this number means.
Explosive Tag is not cheap.
A standard-power Explosive Tag has a considerable price on the black market or official channels during peacetime.
In times of war, the tide will rise even more.
Six hundred billion pieces...
In Kakuzu's mind, he instantly converted countless equivalents: mountains of gold and silver treasures, land enough to buy several Small Countrys, resources that would make Five Great Nations's treasury jealous, astronomical commissions that Kakuzu couldn't save even after hundreds of years of doing S-level tasks...
Rich as a country!
There is no doubt that the wealth is incomparable to the country!
No, he is as rich as several big countries!
"Every time you blow it up... it's burning money... burning my money!"
Kakuzu felt that his heart was throbbing in pain with the continuous and deafening explosions in the sky, as if what was exploding was not Explosive Tag, but his precious hearts.
"That's all... my money! My money!"
Kakuzu roared silently in his heart, the muscles on his face were twisted due to extreme physical pain, and the whites of his eyes turned red.
He seemed to see the savings he had accumulated through hard work, running around, and even betraying his employer and cheating, turning into Nothingness in that gorgeous explosion Kakkō.
Recalling my long life, I have gone through countless running around, dangerous missions, careful planning, and even betrayal and killing in order to make money...
Kakuzu's heart hurt even more, so painful that he could hardly breathe.
It was the ultimate pain of having your faith collapsed and your lifelong pursuit trampled on.
Just when Kakuzu was immersed in the grief of bankruptcy and unable to extricate himself, the center of the explosion in the sky mutated again.
Among the continuous and seemingly endless explosions of Kakkō and smoke, a bit of pure and deep Purple Eyes light suddenly emerged.
Immediately afterwards, a majestic and calm voice penetrated the deafening roar of the explosion and resounded clearly in everyone's ears:
"Six hundred billion Explosive Tag is truly remarkable."
It's the voice of Sage of Six Paths!
"What a pity..."
Following this cry of regret, the purple light suddenly expanded!
"I am Sage of Six Paths."
The moment the voice fell, a figure holding a spiral-shaped Amenonuhoko and shrouded in a faint Purple Eyes Chakra halo, like a sharp sword splitting the waves, calmly stepped out of the devastating sea of explosion fire.
It is Sage of Six Paths.
There wasn't even a trace of scorch marks on the robes on his body, and the terrifying Mutually Multiplying Explosive Tags series of explosions failed to injure him at all.
I saw him Left Hand casually move towards the Explosive Tag ocean behind him that was still proliferating and exploding crazily.
A black Truth-Seeking Orb flew out immediately, and quickly deformed and expanded during the flight, turning into a hemispherical, thin but indestructible black barrier, like an inverted bowl, accurately covering the Explosive Tag in that area, its core anchor point, and the surrounding space.
At the moment when it was shrouded by the Truth-Seeking Orb barrier, the Explosive Tag that originally relied on the technique of mutual multiplication to proliferate crazily and cause chain explosions seemed to have been pressed on the pause button.
The proliferation stopped.
The chain reaction is interrupted.
Explosive Tag, which has not yet exploded, lost contact with Chakra and fell like ordinary pieces of paper.
The energy that has already exploded has been absorbed and annihilated by the Truth-Seeking Orb barrier, and cannot be transferred out to cause more explosions.
Mutually Multiplying Explosive Tags, was cracked.
Konan spent all his money and prepared for many years. Shinobi World's most expensive ultimate killing move in history was so easily defeated in front of Sage of Six Paths.
Konan turned pale, and Kakuzu turned happy.
As for Sage of Six Paths, he didn't even take a second look at the Explosive Tag wreckage sealed by Truth-Seeking Orb. His eyes had once again locked onto the Eight-Armed Asura in front of him, and the Naruto Uzumaki on top of it.
Naruto watched Sage of Six Paths crack Konan's killing move so lightly, a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes, but more importantly, there was a burning fighting spirit.
He controlled Eight-Armed Asura, and the eight sky-high arms once again grasped the magic weapon, preparing to launch the next round of attacks.
However, Sage of Six Paths seems not to want to continue this pattern of giants fighting each other.
He raised his head and looked at Naruto.
"It's so high in the sky that it's hard to fight without restraint."
His tone was calm, as if he was discussing the weather, "How about we go to the ground to fight?"
These words sounded like a discussion, but Sage of Six Paths's actions had no meaning at all.
The Amenonuhoko in his hand shook slightly, and as if teleporting, he suddenly descended from a high altitude and fell towards the relatively flat scorched earth below.
Obviously, he felt that although this kind of giant attack was powerful, it could not fully display all his skills.
He wanted a more direct and original contest.
Naruto heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then grinned, and the golden light in his eyes became brighter. "Just what I want!"
Before he finished speaking, he no longer maintained the huge consumption of Eight-Armed Asura. With a thought, the wooden giant turned into dead wood and scattered.
Naruto himself, holding Truth-Seeking Orb Staff, jumped out from the dissipating light spot, just like Golden Meteor, and hit Sage of Six Paths on the head as it landed below.
"Sage of Six Paths, have you eaten? If not, eat my stick first!"
Truth-Seeking Orb Staff was accompanied by the sound of wind and thunder, and the golden light was bright, as if it was about to crack the mountain and crack the earth.
Sage of Six Paths didn't look back, just flipped his wrist, Amenonuhoko moved from bottom to top, and accurately blocked Naruto's powerful and heavy blow.
"Dang--"
Metal The sound of chirping echoed throughout the fields.
The collision of pure power with Chakra erupted into a circular shock wave visible to the naked eye, plowing the already broken ground around it to a level again.
After failing to hit the target, Naruto used the force to turn over and fall to the ground, confronting Sage of Six Paths dozens of meters apart.
Without the slightest pause, Naruto Left Hand opened his five fingers, palms facing forward, and the rich Senjutsu Chakra mixed with the power of Yang Release quickly condensed.
"Sage Art·Blazing Flame Charge!"
A huge fist composed of blazing Golden flames blasted out from the palm of Naruto like a volcanic eruption, carrying an all-burning high temperature and heading straight for Sage of Six Paths's face!
Sage of Six Paths's expression remained unchanged, but he gently lifted Left Hand, with his fingers slightly spread.
When the flaming giant fist, which was enough to melt steel and evaporate lakes, came into contact with the front of Sage of Six Paths's palm, it was as if it had hit an invisible wall. Flames diverted and disintegrated on its own, turning into little sparks and dissipating without any damage to it.
"Sage Art is wonderful, but the heat is still shallow."
Sage of Six Paths commented lightly. At the same time, Amenonuhoko in his right hand suddenly stretched out like a living creature. The tip of the spear flashed with cold light and moved towards Naruto's neck at a strange angle and speed.
This blow is as fast as lightning, cunning and cruel!
Naruto's pupils shrank, but he remained calm. His body instantly transformed into countless Chakra flying cranes from Red Eyes, flying in all directions, cleverly avoiding Amenonuhoko's fatal blow!
"Sage Art·Fierce Lightning Flash!"
Feihe quickly regrouped into the figure of Naruto behind Sage of Six Paths, and his Left Hand was already wrapped in the dazzling Golden thunder and lightning.
After entering Six Paths·Sage Mode, Sage Art used by Naruto has the special effects of Golden.
Naruto Left Hand pointed like a knife, with violent lightning that tore apart the space, and stabbed towards the back of Sage of Six Paths.
Sage Art Taijutsu's extreme speed and the destructive power of lightning are perfectly combined at this moment.
Sage of Six Paths seemed to have expected it and did not look back. It was just that Amenonuhoko in his hand rotated at an incredible angle to block.
"Zi la!"
The lightning collided with Amenonuhoko, erupting with a harsh energy friction sound and splashing arcs.
