Witty Naruto Life

Chapter 213 After all... the dead should be respected!
The battlefield had now turned into a small lake.

Without hesitation, Kakuzu instructed the Lightning Masked Monster to retreat.

The Water Release masked monster stepped forward, tilting its head slightly. Instead of using its mask to block the attack, it extended its black claws directly at Naruto, attempting to completely intercept the wind blade.

"Shhh!!"

The wind blades instantly sliced ​​through the masked monster's claws and teeth, causing it to let out a mournful howl.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" But almost at the same time, Naruto saw Kakuzu himself rush up and throw a punch at his head, with black lines connecting the fist as it charged towards him.

Naruto dodged to the side, and then saw the Wind Release Mask flap its wings and fly upwards, while the Water Release Mask rushed to the side, spitting out small iron cannons at Naruto from both ends at the same time!

In addition to the extremely powerful Wind Release: Pressure and Water Release: Water Curtain, the Masked Monster can also reduce its power, which in turn greatly increases its attack speed.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Naruto felt himself caught in a hail of bullets, dodging Wind Release and Water Release guns one after another, while Kakuzu seized the opportunity to harass him with his tentacle fists. Then, like a tiger, he leaped up and charged to Naruto's side, giving him an elbow strike!
"boom!!"

Naruto raised his hand to block the attack, but it was deflected by Kakuzu's highly rigid elbow. At the same time, the Lightning Release Masked Monster leaped forward and appeared in front of Naruto, intending to kill him with a lightning laser.

Little did anyone know that Naruto was forming hand seals while being knocked away, and as soon as he completed the seals, he unleashed a wide Wind Release: Kamaitachi!

"Wind Release·Vacuum Wave!"

The Kamaitachi's attack range doubled, almost instantly sealing off the masked monster's escape route.

To prevent being cut in half, the masked monster shrank back, only letting the Kamaitachi cut off a small section of its body. At the same time, Naruto did a backflip and landed back on the water's surface, seeing the tentacle fist coming straight for his face with incredible precision!

"boom!"

Naruto raised his right foot and delivered a side kick, sending his fist flying like a ball. This powerful kick even caused Kakuzu to lose his balance, demonstrating the immense strength of Naruto in Sage Mode.

Then, he charged toward the howling lightning masked monster. Before the wind masked monster could fly over, he dodged its reactive lightning spear, leaped up, and punched it in the face like a tiger.

The masked monster raised its black tentacles to cover its face.

"boom!!"

A simple, direct punch sent it slamming into the water!
Kakuzu's pupils contracted. This person's power had reached an unbelievable level, which made him suddenly realize that his body had undergone a special amplification.

"Secret technique or medicine... no, it doesn't matter." Kakuzu murmured, watching Naruto frantically dodge the Wind Release Cannon and Fire Release Cannon, which crashed into the water, creating bursts of steam. At that moment, another graceful figure of steam rose from the water's surface.

"Damn it, it's someone behind us!" Kakuzu charged at Naruto again, but this time he learned his lesson and didn't directly engage Naruto in taijutsu. Instead, he continued with the previous combination of ninjutsu.

The Fire Release and Wind Release masked monsters reunited, and the beautiful figure was also fully formed, in the form of Sakura. She grabbed Naruto's real body and threw him forcefully towards Kakuzu!
In an instant, Naruto shot towards us like a bullet!

"Oh no!" Kakuzu exclaimed in surprise, hurriedly ordering the Wind Release monster and Fire Release monster to dodge, but it was too late.

Naruto extended only one punch, aiming directly at the Fire Release monster, almost hitting the center of the mask. The black claws raised by the monster's hand negated most of the damage, but at the same time, the Wind Release monster was also hit in the mask!

His fist was aimed at the Fire Release monster, but it wasn't an ordinary punch. Instead, it was a frog-style punch. As he extended his fist, natural energy extended to the other side, simultaneously striking the Wind Release masked monster.

It looked as if the force of a punch thrown down simultaneously affected the people next to it.

At that moment, the Lightning Release Masked Monster unleashed a lightning spear, the lightning plasma mixed with the spray instantly paralyzing Naruto's body. The next instant, Kakuzu suddenly appeared in front of Naruto, and his heavy fist arrived as expected, smashing towards Naruto's cheek!

Naruto's pupils contracted, and the next moment, he suddenly dodged and turned his head to the side. At the same time, water splashed in front of the two of them!

"boom!!"

The sudden increase in water pressure forced the two of them to retreat. Upon closer inspection, they realized that Sakura was forming hand seals behind them, controlling the water flow in time to allow Naruto to dodge the attack.

Kakuzu looked at Naruto in disbelief: "How did you manage to dodge that just now?"

He clearly saw Naruto's body go numb and his lower body covered in faint burns from the lightning plasma, but he still turned his head to avoid it.

This is very unscientific.

Naruto:"……"

He remained silent, but heard the true self within him exhale deeply:

You would have died if you had been just a fraction more off course.

"...Although it can be forcibly removed by the Nine-Tails, thank you anyway."

This was a "bug" that the two had discovered before Shippuden. When Naruto's body lost control, his true self could temporarily take over and command the body to act, but this could only be maintained for a moment.

They had previously used this trick to evade Orochimaru's cursed seal.

Kakuzu's face darkened; he realized that the masked man before him had many hidden cards he was unaware of.

But it felt as if he had been completely seen through. What was going on? Kakuzu suddenly stopped what he was doing: "Actually, I've wanted to ask this for a long time. Have we met somewhere before?"

Naruto remained silent, only to hear Kakuzu continue, "You seem to have known about Hidan and my abilities from the very beginning, and yet you still refuse to speak..."

"That means we know each other, right?"

Kakuzu's eyes were sharp: "Which acquaintance attacked me? I don't remember knowing any old friends from Konoha."

After saying that, he saw Naruto sneer and ask in a hoarse voice, "What makes you so sure?"

Kakuzu narrowed his eyes: "So you really are an old monster from Konoha...?"

Naruto's reaction is consistent with his previous guess.

This is most likely a renowned Konoha expert who fought him before, who has returned to the scene for some reason and is standing here with him.

Kakuzu's mission was to uncover the identity of the masked man using Wind Release techniques, but that alone wasn't enough to fulfill his task, so he probed further:
"Why don't you dare show your true colors? Are you afraid of my retaliation? Is that all the courage you have?"

Naruto remained silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Why should I satisfy your curiosity?"

"You have no need to know me, and I don't want to respect your wishes, unless..."

Kakuzu repeated, "Unless...?"

"Unless you're about to die, after all..."

"Respect for the dead is paramount!"

Having said that, Kakuzu felt his blood rush to his head, and a feeling of being played well welled up in his heart. The next moment, he saw a blur before his eyes and heard a burst of steam in his ears.

The next moment, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen. Naruto's whip kick sent Kakuzu flying backward. The speed at which his body hardened couldn't even keep up with the speed of Naruto's attack!

The Lightning Release masked monster burst from the water, splashing up a faint mist of water vapor mixed with lightning. At the same time, Wind Release and Fire Release techniques closed in, spitting out faint iron cannons, attempting to wipe Naruto out in one fell swoop.

The next moment, the lake surface suddenly became turbulent, causing the iron cannons spewed out by the wind and fire releases to miss their mark and explode on the uneven water surface. In the blink of an eye, they found that Naruto had once again charged in front of Hidan!
At this moment, Naruto perfectly combined natural energy, chakra, and his own body, taking his taijutsu skills to a new level!
Kakuzu reacted quickly, using several somersaults to offset the inertia, then hardening his arms to deflect the flying kunai.

At that moment, he saw Naruto throw out several more kunai, which bounced off each other and pulled the steel wires behind them, instantly forming an encirclement around him!

"Using shuriken techniques, huh..." Kakuzu murmured softly, summoning the Wind Release masked monster to fly over and immediately activating Wind Release: Pressure Damage!
It was fortunate that the Wind Release Masked Monster had wings, which allowed it to accelerate over short distances and fly over to put out the fire.

"boom!!!"

The kunai were bounced away one after another, and the steel wires were cut off by the small wind needles contained in the Wind Release: Pressure Damage.

Before he could retaliate, Kakuzu noticed Naruto unfold the scroll, press his palm into it, and summon a giant Fuma Shuriken.

The next moment, Naruto spun twice with the giant shuriken and threw it out like a shot put, while at the same time, he pulled his other hand back sharply!
"Crack!"

The Wind Demon Shuriken split open, transforming into countless small mechanisms. At the same time, the number of steel wires in Naruto's hand suddenly increased, connecting these small iron pieces, making him appear as if he had become a puppeteer.

This scene was replicated by Sasuke in the Naruto vs. Sasuke battle against the Otsutsuki in Boruto, and it was a high-level application of shurikenjutsu.

Naruto waved his hands alternately, and some of the small metal pieces rushed towards the Wind Release Masked Monster, some towards Kakuzu, and some covered Naruto's rear, delaying the reinforcements from the Lightning Release, Water Release, and Fire Release monsters.

Kakuzu had the Wind Release monster unleash another Wind Release Cannon, and instead of dodging, he hardened his entire body and charged straight toward Naruto.

The next moment, Naruto pulled open his black robe, revealing the explosive tags inside!
Kakuzu was taken aback, and then saw three or four shadow clones suddenly burst out from the water in the distance and begin to surround and attack the Lightning Release Masked Monster!
"boom!!!"

"boom!!!"

"boom!!!"

The massive explosion instantly engulfed Kakuzu and the Wind Release Masked Monster, shattering the entire battlefield.

While Kakuzu himself was being swept up by various shuriken and explosive fragments, almost all of Naruto's shadow clones launched an attack on the Lightning Release masked monster!
Naruto's true body was hidden inside. He had switched places with the clone before he could deliver a whip kick to Kakuzu, all to conceal his true purpose.

He knew very well that Kakuzu's main body had Earth Release: Earth Spear as a defense, and unless he mastered Lightning Release like Kakashi, he would not be able to break the deadlock.

Only by defeating them one by one, leaving Kakuzu with only one life and putting him on the defensive, can he turn his advantage into a victory.

Keep in mind that Sakura was still covering for him from a distance. Right now, she was just expending a lot of chakra, but that didn't mean she couldn't use Water Release: Water Body Flicker to instantly kill him.

However, this killing blow must be saved for last, so that Kakuzu doesn't notice anything amiss.

At this moment, a sinister smile appeared behind Naruto's mask as he looked at the Lightning Release monster: "You think you can paralyze me... I'll just let you paralyze me!"

After completing the hand seals, Naruto spat out a giant Kamaitachi, which almost covered most of the Lightning Release masked monster's body:

"Wind Release·Vacuum Wave!"
