Kakuzu began to think about retreating.
As long as I survive, I can always make a comeback!
Nothing mattered more than staying alive.
To hell with the mission!
"Kakuzu, you bastard! Take me with you if you're running away!"
Hidan's head screamed shrilly from the ceiling.
If Kakuzu didn't take him along...
He might remain embedded here for the rest of his life.
All of Orochimaru's people had already left.
Perhaps no one would ever come here again.
He would be left here forever.
"I can barely save myself! I can't worry about you!"
Kakuzu sent all his hearts out to cover his retreat.
He kept only the youngest heart to sustain his life.
"Kakuzu, you can't leave!"
"The leader told us to hold him off for half an hour! It's only been ten minutes!"
Sasori's arm detached, revealing another dark gun barrel.
"We'll all be corpses in half an hour."
"What good would holding him off do then?"
"Once we're dead, no one will remember us!"
"Even someone as powerful as the God of Shinobi could only live on as a face on a wall after his death!"
Kakuzu sneered at Sasori's words.
In his eyes, nothing was more important than staying alive.
If he lost his money, he could earn more.
If he lost his life, he would lose everything!
He would become nothing but a handful of dust!
"If you want to die, stay here!"
Kakuzu ran toward the exit without looking back.
He had barely taken a few steps when Zhou Cheng sent Sasori flying.
Then he felt all his other hearts being crushed.
He truly panicked!
The fear of death filled his face!
Just then, he heard Deidara's hysterical roar.
"Art is an Explosion! Ha!"
Boom!
A blinding light flared.
Then the violent blast wave
