From Naruto onwards, I've become a dreamer.

Chapter 120 Kakuzu: Report, someone's using cheat codes!
As they were talking, a figure slowly emerged from behind the tree.

The man was wearing a black robe, with half of his face covered by a black mask. His eerie, dark green pupils stared menacingly at Uchiha Muneki.

Kakuzu crossed his arms, his eyes haughty, waiting to see the look of utter shock on the other's face.

He had used this tactic many times before, especially against Konoha ninjas, and it always worked!

After all, he was the First Hokage who pacified the chaotic world, single-handedly dismantling the Tailed Beasts and ushering in a new era for the ninja village. Every ninja born in Konoha grew up hearing the legends of Hashirama Senju. And who didn't feel awe and reverence for the First Hokage?

And he, Kakuzu, as a ninja who fought against the First Hokage, has a name that alone is terrifying!
However, the shocked expression he had imagined did not appear on the young man's face.

Not only that, but the corners of his mouth seemed to twitch slightly, and you could even see a deep contempt in his eyes.

Kakuzu immediately lost face, veins bulging at the corners of his eyes, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Arrogant Uchiha brat, didn't you hear what I said? Or are you doubting that I'm lying to you?"

Seemingly in an effort to maintain his dignity, he ripped off his clothes, revealing a body that looked as if it had been stitched together.

His body was covered with a dense network of crisscrossing stitches, making it look extremely eerie, as if it had been forcibly pieced together.

"Hehe, then let this old man prove it to you!"

Kakuzu revealed a cruel smile and said, "A head worth 80 million ryo is barely worth me using this ninjutsu to deal with you!"

dong dong!

dong dong!

A strong, powerful heartbeat produced a clear, deep sound.

Then, Kakuzu's back muscles swelled up as if inflated, as if something was trying to struggle out of his body. On his high-rising back, four masks with different patterns suddenly tore through the skin, and clumps of black, oil-like substance emerged.

A viscous black substance fell nearby, and then, like a creature made of countless tentacles, it slowly rose up, each wearing a mask with a different pattern.

"To die from this move is an honor for you!"

Kakuzu, beaming with pride, cast another arrogant glance, grinning as he said, "And the only one who survived after witnessing this move was your First Hokage—Hashirama Senju!"

"Sorry to interrupt."

Uchiha Munetsuki couldn't listen any longer, and coupled with his already irritable mood, he frowned and said, "When you say you fought the First Hokage, are you referring to throwing a shuriken from 800 miles away?"

"."

Kakuzu's eye twitched, and the pretentious line he had just prepared got stuck in his throat.

"I really don't understand, could you please explain it to me?"

Uchiha Munetsuki frowned, looking disgusted, and said, "How did you survive with these few lousy fish? With this level of skill, I find it hard to imagine. Even the First Hokage's Wood Release clone might not be able to defeat you, right?"

puff!puff!puff!

It felt as if several sharp knives had pierced Kakuzu's heart; his face immediately turned bright red, and his veins bulged.

Lies don't hurt, truth is the knife.

Perhaps it was these words that tore away his pretense of decency, but Kakuzu was immediately enraged and embarrassed.

His eerie green eyes narrowed, and he roared, "Arrogant Uchiha brat, sharp-tongued and ignorant of your own limitations! I'll show you just how vast this world truly is!"

Snapped!
Cross your hands and pinch them together to form the Si Mu (a type of hand seal).

As if receiving a command, the four nearby Earth Grudges charged forward at great speed, their masks of various patterns suddenly opening.

"Wind Escape·Press!"

"Thunder Escape·Pseudo Darkness!"

"Fire Release: Head Carving!" "Water Release: Water Chaos Wave!"

Four chakras of different attributes rapidly condensed in the monster's mouth.

Then, a breath, like a storm, roared in with the force of thunder, carrying the energy of the four elements of thunder, fire, wind, and water, directly engulfing Uchiha Muneki. Rolling gales swept through the jungle like raging waves, tearing up large sections of nearby trees and land.

Rumble——!
The chakra attributes, which are mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining, unleash even greater destructive power when they collide with each other.

In an instant, the massive chain reaction spread, directly carving out a chasm tens of meters wide and nearly a hundred meters long in the forest. The remaining chakra in the air surged violently, raising the nearby temperature by tens of degrees. The billowing smoke and lightning intertwined, creating a scene of utter destruction.

"Hmph, the more arrogant a guy is, the less capable he usually is."

Kakuzu sneered, a hint of heartache in his eyes, but he maintained a disdainful expression on his face and said, "It seems that Uchiha Muneki's head is not worth 80 million ryo at all."

However, the next second.

Uchiha Muneki walked out from beside him unharmed.

Looking at the destroyed forest, he commented casually, "A mixture of four elemental chakras, the power is not bad, but the accuracy is a bit lacking. Remember to aim carefully next time."

"What?!" Kakuzu felt a chill run down his spine, like a startled cat, and retreated dozens of meters with his back arched. After creating distance, a deep sense of confusion and surprise appeared in the depths of his eerie green eyes: "You clearly didn't move. When exactly?"

The Earth Grudge Fear possesses sensory abilities, yet it never realized when Uchiha Munezuki approached.

Furthermore, given how close they were just now, a sudden sneak attack could have destroyed at least one of his hearts!
"Although I don't know what methods you used to evade my detection," Kakuzu said with a grim expression, his hands forming the Si Mudra, earth-attribute chakra flowing within him, a layer of black hardening covering his skin. Then he gave a cold laugh: "But that was your last chance. I won't let you get close to me again!"

According to information provided by the black market, Uchiha Munetsuki is extremely skilled in taijutsu and genjutsu, and his body-flicker technique is incredibly fast.

Unfortunately, he encountered his own opponent, and even the most powerful illusions were useless. The Earth Grudge Fear was like another version of himself; by simply disrupting each other's chakra, the illusions could be easily broken.

"Long-range combat is my forte in ninjutsu!"

In just a few seconds, Kazuya had already devised a perfect and comprehensive plan in his mind.

The Earth Grudge howled and gathered towards him. Suddenly, the stitches that had been sewn up around his arms and body burst open, and clumps of black threads poured out from his mouth and back, filling and connecting the broken parts. Soon, Kakuzu turned into a monster with large clumps of thread-like tentacles emerging from his body, looking extremely terrifying.

"Earthly Grudge Mode!"

Once Kakuzu got serious, he completely abandoned his contempt and decided to go all out to take down this guy.

"Do you know how many people with serious mental health issues like you I've met?"

Uchiha Munetsu pushed up his black-rimmed glasses, a faint ripple in his eyes. He used hypnosis to freeze Kakuzu in place, then slowly walked over, shaking his head and sighing softly, "I already warned you, I'm in a bad mood right now, why... did you have to provoke me?"

Can't move?
Kakuzu was horrified to discover that he could no longer control his body.

"By the way, let me tell you something else."

Uchiha Munezuki said calmly, "Although the Earth Grudge Fear is under your control, from a biological perspective, it actually has emotions and thoughts."

Simply put, it means that the audience's path is fraught with conflict and resentment.

Even a high sequence isn't necessary; a simple 'shock' is enough to make the innocent and pure-hearted Di Yuan Yu stay obediently in place.

"wait wait wait!"

Kakuzu's eyes widened in terror as he cried out, "I...I was wrong! I'm willing to submit to you! I know many secrets!"

"Oh, no need."

Uchiha Muneki raised his sword and slashed across Kakuzu's neck, saying indifferently, "Besides, your death will be more useful to me. Remember to be careful in your next life."

Subscriptions have dropped a lot... I don't know if it crashed or if everyone's just waiting for it to finish.
