He's in the Marvel universe, and his first step is marrying Scarlet Witch.

Chapter 157 Hidan's Death (Third Update)

Five kilometers away from the gold exchange, in a deserted open space, Li Chuan stopped, looked around, and then nodded in satisfaction.

"Alright, let's kill them here!"

"Whom shall we kill here, it?"

Hidan turned his head and looked around, but apart from a squirrel in the tree in front of him, he did not see any other creatures.

Kakuzu looked at Hidan as if he were an idiot.

"No, I need Hidan to help me with the Jashin Ritual."

At this moment, Li Chuan smiled, turned around, and took out a glass bottle containing the blood he had obtained from Danzo during the Konoha Crush plan.

Kakuzu saw the glass bottle in Li Chuan's hand and then suddenly realized what the other party meant.

Hidan, on the other hand, was not having it.

"No, I disagree. My faith forbids me from killing like this. I want to see the victim wail and suffer, dying slowly in my ritual under the gaze of despair. The gods enjoy seeing this."

"Shut up, you idiot!"

Upon hearing this, Kakuzu frowned; that was three hundred million taels.

"Get started now. You can do the things you like on the next mission."

"Kakuzu, you must respect my beliefs."

Hidan continued to shake his head.

"Five hundred million, or forget it."

Li Chuan put the bottle away again.

Kakuzu turned to look at Hidan, and five strange masks wrapped in black lines slowly flew out from his trench coat:

"This is a mission, a mission that must be completed. I don't want to hear you refuse!"

"Alright, alright, then let me pray to the gods first."

Seeing that Kakuzu was serious, Hidan had no choice but to take off the necklace from his church and begin his prayers before the ceremony.

There's nothing he can do; he can't beat Kakuzu.

"You're always such a troublemaker."

Kakuto put the mask back into his trench coat.

Hidan replied, while praying, clearly annoyed:

"I also find it troublesome, but the precepts we teach are very strict, and there's nothing I can do about it."

After the prayer, Hidan took the bottle containing Danzo's blood from Li Chuan's hand. He first used some of his own blood to draw the cult's symbol on the ground, and then used Danzo's blood from the bottle to begin the Jashin ritual.

"Alright, mission over. This kind of killing feels too meaningless. This is the last time."

Once the ceremony was complete, Hidan pulled out a kunai and pierced his own heart with it, ignoring the blood flowing from his heart, his expression one of utter boredom.

He enjoys killing, but he doesn't like things like this, where there's no sense of accomplishment whatsoever.

"Sorry, the mission is not yet complete. The person you need to kill can resurrect eleven times, and will not die for one minute after each resurrection, so you need to kill him ten more times."

Li Chuan explained to Hidan, who had been stabbed in the chest but was completely unharmed.

The Earth in this world is not just about ninjutsu; ninjutsu and chakra only came into existence later because of the God Tree.

In fact, before Kaguya Otsutsuki brought the Ten-Tails to Earth, there were some forces on Earth besides the samurai who were not conventional.

For example, the three holy lands, as well as some witchcraft and divine arts, still exist today, but many of them have been enhanced by incorporating external energy such as chakra, making them even more powerful.

This includes deities such as the Shinigami of Death with the Reaper Death Seal, Hidan's evil god, the Thousand-Armed Kannon and Fudo Myoo from the Fire Temple's ninjutsu, the Hell Path of the Rinnegan, and Rashomon and Myojinmon that were summoned from another world.

In short, if you delve deeper, it's a world that's far from simple.

"What? I have to do this boring thing ten more times?"

Hidan immediately decided to go on strike again upon hearing this.

Li Chuan turned to look at Kakuzu, who then stepped forward and offered a combination of reassurance and threats before Hidan finally agreed to continue working.

A minute later, Hidan stabbed himself again, and another minute later, he continued stabbing himself in the heart. He did this for the tenth time before finally snapping.

No matter what Kakuzu said, even if he wanted to start a fight on the spot, he refused to continue because he felt insulted and that his beliefs had been insulted.

Kakuzu can't actually fight Hidan. Hidan is brainless, but Kakuzu can't be brainless and let his temper run wild.

Although he had already planned to send the annoying Hidan to meet his evil god once the organization's mission was completely completed.

"How about this, we'll kill your target ten times, one more time is needed. You can pay four hundred million taels, is that alright?"

Kakuzu turned to look at Li Chuan.

Li Chuan remained silent. After the tenth kill and the one-minute cooldown period, he directly activated the Eight Gates Formation, opening the Gate of Opening and the Gate of Rest, his body transforming into a blur as he arrived in front of Hidan, who was standing inside the formation.

"Alright, this is the eleventh time. Your mission is complete. I will pay you five hundred million taels as agreed."

He pulled a longsword from the mission space and pierced Hidan through the heart with a single blow.

His primary goal was Danzo's last Mangekyou Sharingan, so how could he possibly agree to Kakuzu's conditions?

Since Hidan refuses to do it, then he'll do it himself.

In any case, as long as the ritual is not over and the formation is not destroyed, whether Hidan injures himself or someone else does it, the effect is the same.

To be honest, Hidan's strengths lie in his curse-killing technique and immortality; in other aspects, he's really not that great.

He basically doesn't know any other ninjutsu, and his taijutsu is at most at the Jonin level.

Hidan's situation is that if you don't know his information, even a Kage-level powerhouse would be killed by the curse if he got his blood and performed the Jashin Ritual.

However, if you knew the intelligence, he was actually the weakest member of the Akatsuki organization.

Although the immortal body formed by the power of the evil god is powerful, be careful not to get your blood on him. As long as you control him, you can stop him from resurrecting by dismembering him and burying him in different places.

That's the same method Shikamaru used.

Other techniques include using water-based techniques to create large-scale water-based attacks, preventing him from performing evil god rituals, controlling his mind with genjutsu, sealing his physical body with sealing techniques, and using reanimated ninjas, among others.

If you know his information in advance, there are quite a few ways to deal with him, but he is still not comparable to someone with Kakuzu's solid strength.

"You bastard, how dare you treat me like this!"

Hidan, seeing that Li Chuan dared to stab him with a sword, completely erupted with the grievance and anger of having his faith insulted.

He immediately drew the longsword from his chest and threw it on the ground, drew a new ritual pattern, picked up his scythe-shaped weapon, and was about to let Li Chuan personally experience the power of his curse killing technique.

At this point, he didn't care about the mission or the money.

Kakuzu immediately tried to stop him. He wouldn't mind Hidan cursing the other party to death after he paid, but the other party hadn't paid yet, so he couldn't just kill him like that.

However, the next second, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he froze on the spot.

"Avada Kedavra!"

It turned out that Li Chuan saw that Hidan was planning to kill him, so he took out the Elder Wand and, with speed far exceeding that of his opponent, shot a green Killing Curse at Hidan's head.

Hidan, who possessed an immortal body and could reassemble even after being cut into countless pieces, lost his luster in his eyes after being hit by the Killing Curse, and collapsed to the ground, dying instantly.

"It seems that your immortality is limited to your physical body, and not limited to your soul."

Li Chuan looked down at the dead Hidan and murmured something.
