Konoha: Unable to learn ninjutsu, they had to develop their own.

Page 562

Of the four Jonin, Asuma was indeed the one he looked down on the most.

however.

The next instant, a blue blade flashed in his eyes.

Like a butterfly spreading its wings, it is very beautiful and vibrant, but...

It's also deadly!

Kakuzu's neck was cut in half, but it was quickly reconnected by tentacles.

The second stab came from behind.

Kakuzu had recovered from the imbalance caused by the repeated beatings from the Thousand Hands Slayer. Threads emerged from his body and condensed into a hand to strike Asuma.

but.

A backhand slash—

Kakuzu dodged the blade, but an invisible blade of energy instantly sliced through his tentacles, and a gust of wind slashed across his heart.

Chakra Blade: Shinichimonji!

The most powerful Flying Swallow Blade Technique shattered Kakuzu's heart with a single strike.

The heart of water, shattered!

Kakuzu collapsed to the ground with a thud.

Without intelligence, Asuma and Chirai might have lowered their guard, but now, while they appear to be relaxed, in reality...

The Earthly Grudge Technique worked, and as a bunch of tentacles swiftly pierced through, the two once again formed the Thousand Hands Killing Seal.

In an instant, Kakuzu was sent flying again, being beaten back and forth in mid-air.

He was furious but had nowhere to vent his anger.

Kakuzu had never fought a battle like this before.

But now.

He felt like he was facing two turtle shells. What was worse was that he had no idea how long the other party's ninjutsu could be maintained or how fast they could form hand seals.

No intelligence whatsoever!

Or.

All the previous intelligence was false and had no timeliness.

What kind of Guardian Ninja Twelve are they? Just ordinary Jonin...

Is this what you call a regular Jonin?

Kakuzu harbored deep resentment, but all he could do at that moment was silently ponder a way out and try to escape.

Only these two still have a chance to escape.

In ninja warfare, intelligence is of paramount importance.

Kakuzu is either unaware of them, or there might be even more enemies ahead. To linger and fight on would be something only a fool would do.

Seeing that his attempts to appease the people were ineffective.

He made a prompt decision—

In an instant, it used the tentacles of the Earth Grudge to forcibly grab onto rocks, trees, and anything else it could use for leverage, and then forcibly pulled itself to move in one direction.

Only in this way could he avoid Asuma's strike.

Kakuzu did indeed dodge.

Asuma's attack was dodged by him using this method, only injuring his arm. Such an injury to the arm could be easily repaired by the Earth Grudge Tentacles, which was no challenge for him at all.

but.

At this moment, another presence appeared around us.

Having just been teleported here, Kakashi hadn't even had time to recast his chakra shield to conceal his presence, but upon seeing the scene before him, he knew...

I no longer need to use the chakra shield.

Zizizi!

A deafening clap of thunder sounded.

Kakuzu regained control and immediately used his Body Flicker and Earth Release to escape, but he was only halfway into the ground when a hand pierced through his chest.

That was a fast Raikiri!

Such a thought came to Kakuzu's mind.

The Earth Release Mask was killed.

Only the underdeveloped thunder, wind, and fire remained.

Can't run away.

……

"Konoha launched an attack?"

Payne paused for a few seconds before saying, "It's indeed a pity that Itachi was attacked."

"The key is not Itachi."

Black Zetsu said solemnly, "Konoha's move this time must have been planned. Someone suspects that they don't just want to kill one or two people, but want to wipe out all the active members of our Akatsuki organization."

"But it's too late to say anything now."

Payne said calmly, "They are far away from me. Even if I go to help them now, I can't save their lives. On the contrary..."

"If they survive, the Akatsuki organization can continue."

Payne was very rational.

His physical condition meant he couldn't go too far—

Unless Xiao Nan helps.

but.

Even with Konan, his speed couldn't reach the speed of a Kage-level instantaneous movement.

Black Zetsu remained silent for a few seconds.

He knew that Nagato was right.

The burden on the Gedo Mazo has rendered Nagato incapable of moving.

He pondered it over and over again.

"Nagato, we've recently made some small discoveries in our research on interstitial cells that might be of some help to you."

"Oh?"

Payne looked at him, his face still expressionless, but his tone held a hint of curiosity, "What research?"

"We discovered that Hashirama's cells react to the Sharingan and can counteract the Sharingan's burden. Of course, we initially got the inspiration from Konoha."

Black Zetsu shifted the blame to Kakashi—

Even if he couldn't be sure whether Kakashi had the transplant, it was a good excuse.

"Konoha?"

"Kakashi Hatake possesses a Sharingan of Mangekyou Sharingan level, but recently his chakra and Sharingan load seem to have eased."

Black Zetsu said, "This principle might also apply to you. We can try transplanting Hashirama cells."

"Can try."

Payne hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Do you have any materials over there?"

"Yes, if you want to try, I can bring the stuff over right away. Of course, you can also use a White Zetsu clone to experiment on that guy named Kabuto first; the two should be the same type."

"Then give it a try."

Payne said as he walked into the house, "Nan."

Xiao Nan came out from inside.

"Go and save the rest of them first. Save as many as you can, and if you can't, then forget about it."

"it is good."

"What are you doing here? I told you, I won't do anything for you until I kill Uchiha Itachi."

Sasuke said coldly.

"I have some news to tell you."

Obito sighed and sat down in front of Sasuke.

"what news?"
