Kakuzu understood that since he could not escape, he could only fight to the death!
"Roar—!"
Kakuzu let out a roar, his body suddenly arching as the stitches on his back instantly burst apart!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Three monsters wearing different masks broke free from Kakuzu's body and floated behind him.
Wind, fire, lightning!
"Uchiha Yao! Don't think having the Rinnegan makes you so great!"
"I admit you're strong, but if you want to kill me, you'll have to pay a price!"
"Wind Release: Wicked Flurry!"
"Fire Release: Headhunter!"
"Lightning Release: False Darkness!"
The three Earth Grudge Fear mask monsters opened their mouths at the same time.
Under Kakuzu's control, three powerful ninjutsu blasted toward Uchiha Yao.
"Oh? Are you risking your life now?"
A teasing smile appeared on Uchiha Yao's face.
He had only recently obtained Hashirama Senju's Wood Release. It was time to try it out.
He would use this old fossil as his first test subject.
Didn't he always brag about having fought the First Hokage? Then he would let him witness the First Hokage's Wood Release!
Uchiha Yao slowly brought his hands together.
"Wood Release: Forest Descent!"
Rumble—!
The earth began to shake violently!
Before Kakuzu's horrified eyes, countless incomparably thick trees burst madly from beneath the hard stone ground at a terrifying speed that defied the laws of nature!
The trees grew wildly, twisting, intertwining, and crossing over one another!
In an instant, the once-barren rocky region had turned into a boundless primeval forest!
All the ninjutsu Kakuzu had unleashed was blocked by the trees. Though they blasted apart quite a few trees, they could not keep up with the trees' growth.
"Th-this is..."
Kakuzu floated in midair, staring blankly at the vast sea of forest that had suddenly appeared below. He was completely stunned.
