How come it's already ten million taels! Don't they think money is money?
But then he realized that given Yekura's strength, it was impossible for her to bring someone who wasn't even a Jonin.
Ten million taels of silver didn't seem expensive at that time.
Driven by murderous intent, Chiyo no longer hesitated: "Alright, I'll add another ten million ryo!"
"You must leave Yekura here for me!"
"Don't worry," Kakuzu smiled confidently, "As long as the price is right, I guarantee you'll be satisfied."
After saying that, lightning began to flash across his body.
Chiyo was getting old, and when he sped up, she couldn't keep up.
A dark shadow, crackling with blue lightning, suddenly approached Ye Cang's figure at breakneck speed.
Soon, Yekura heard the noise behind her.
Without turning around, she knew the pursuers were rapidly approaching. Sensing the internal injuries in her organs, she wanted to hurry to Shenyue Xingyun's side, but the faster she moved, the more intense the pain became.
Subconsciously, Yekura thought to herself, "Let's hold on a little longer."
Shenyue Xingyun had told her before she made her move that he wouldn't intervene this time, but would only provide backup. She didn't want him to change his plans for her sake unless absolutely necessary.
But then she suddenly realized—she was the other person's girlfriend.
Is it necessary to be so formal?
Maybe we should ask him for help.
She looked up, but before she could even speak, she saw Shenyue Xingyun begin to move, her figure rapidly approaching her.
"Heh, looks like there's no need to bother chasing after him." Kakuzu, who was in pursuit, sneered upon seeing Shingetsu Seiun's actions.
With a thought, chakra surged, and his earth-attribute heart beat vigorously.
"Earth Escape - Encirclement!"
Pillars of earth rose from the ground, enveloping Ye Cang and Shen Yue Xingyun.
A smile appeared on Kakuzu's lips.
His earth-遁 (earth escape) technique may lack offensive power, but its purpose is to trap the enemy.
By restricting the movement of the two individuals and combining this with his other elemental ninjutsu, defeating the enemy would be a piece of cake.
Scorching Leaf Warehouse.
Severely wounded, he was nothing more than a lamb to the slaughter.
That ten million taels is really easy to earn.
Just as he was about to unleash his Fire Release technique, he saw the person behind Ye Cang move.
The hands are forming a mudra.
Kakuzu was not worried.
Having spent so many years in the ninja world, he was already very familiar with how to deal with all kinds of ninjutsu.
He has countermeasures for all types of ninjutsu, including wind, fire, earth, lightning, and water.
He could barely make out that the hand seals of the Divine Moon Nebula were a lightning release technique.
"Lightning Release? It does have some effect against Earth Release."
"However, I still have Wind Release!"
Kakuzu forms hand seals once more!
Mist rose around me; it was the prelude to the enemy's lightning attack.
"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!!" Kakuzu shouted.
A sudden gust of wind arose from the flat ground!
The howling wind quickly dispersed the fog around us.
'Now, Chiyo won't feel like she lost out by paying an extra ten million ryo,' Kakuzu thought to himself.
But just then, he suddenly realized that something seemed wrong.
The man behind Yekura was still forming hand seals.
He blew away the fog himself, so what hand seal was he forming?
Kakuzu did indeed blow away the fog in front of him, but what he didn't know was that the thick fog formed by chakra around the Earth Release technique he used had enveloped an area of 100 meters in radius.
A powerful surge of chakra began to tremble.
By the time Kakuzu sensed the danger, it was already too late!
Lightning appeared.
At first, it seemed to be just wisps and strands, but in an instant it spread out.
Under the watchful eyes of numerous Sand Village ninja, a bright light suddenly burst forth from the misty area within a hundred-meter radius! Lightning bolts followed!
Strands of lightning gathered into thick bolts of light, forming a massive area of thunder that resembled a giant dome, enveloping the three of them.
"Oh no!" Kakuzu was terrified!
Having roamed the ninja world for decades, he is quite experienced in judging danger.
When he saw the enormous lightning shield enveloping the world before him, he knew that this was definitely not an ordinary large-scale ninjutsu, nor was it a ninjutsu that he could directly confront.
However, if he doesn't confront them head-on, where can he run to?
Lightning Release: Lightning Dragon Slaying the Sky is a large-scale lightning ninjutsu with a wide field of vision, capable of locking onto targets. Apart from the slightly longer casting time, it has no obvious drawbacks.
Kakuzu might have been able to escape, but Earth Release: Enclosure obscured his vision, and now it was too late for regrets. In his wide-eyed terror, the lightning covering the earth suddenly condensed into several thick bolts of lightning, crashing down upon him.
"BOOM!!!!!!!!!~"
The thunder was dazzling, followed by a deafening roar.
No one heard Kakuzu's scream, because it was drowned out by the deafening thunder.
A short while later, the lightning dissipated.
The earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of escape technique) enclosure has shattered into pieces.
Where Kakuzu once stood, only a charred crater remained. Some white fragments could still be faintly seen.
"He...died?" The Sunagakure ninjas were astonished.
The expert brought back by their own leader, Chiyo, charged forward with great momentum, only to be wiped out just like that?
Thinking about the burst of lightning that had just been unleashed, it actually made a lot of sense.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Yecang and the terrifying man who had unleashed lightning jutsu joined together, and the two quickly left hand in hand.
No one pursued them.
On one hand, many Sunagakure ninjas are still unaware of the situation.
Why would Lady Chiyo be chasing after Lady Yokura? Has Lady Yokura betrayed the village?
On the other hand, it is the instinct for survival.
Chiyo stood frozen in place, not daring to give chase. Were they, a group of Chunin and Genin, really going to rush up and die?
The lightning strike was only aimed at one person. If it had been spread out and aimed at them, their fate would probably not have been much better.
"Holy crap!" A gasp suddenly rang out from the crowd.
Chiyo turned around with a cold face. The Sand Village ninja who made the sound immediately shrank back, covered his mouth in terror, and wished he could find a crack in the ground to hide from everyone.
The ninja beside him, curious about why the other was making a sound, turned his gaze in confusion, and in the blink of an eye, cries of "Holy crap!" and "Oh my god!" rang out.
Chiyo could no longer hold back and stepped forward.
She looked at the place where everyone's eyes were focused... a puppet.
The puppet is practicing ancient yoga in front of its base.
Of course, what caused the exclamations was not the puppet's posture, but the large characters that the ninjas saw on the puppet's back as it moved forward.
"Colluding with the Hidden Mist!"
"You betray your own people!"
"Betraying our own village!"
"Shameless Chiyo!"
Below the large characters, there are smaller characters that detail the specifics of Chiyo's betrayal of her fellow villagers.
No one dared to go closer to look.
I could only try to pull my neck back as far as possible, pretending not to want to see, while using my best eyesight to memorize the small print.
As for those that are really hard to see, we can just ask our companions later.
Chapter 241 Blushing Chiyo
"Huff... Huff..." Chiyo gasped for breath, her face flushed... Her expression was similar to that of two of the ten puppets.
Without turning around, she could almost picture the expressions on the faces of the other ninjas.
Yekura's attack was more ferocious and deadly than she had imagined.
'Damn it, damn it, damn it!' Chiyo roared inwardly.
'When did this Yekura become so... so ruthless!?'
Before this, the other party had always been an honest and simple woman, and she was always straightforward in carrying out her missions. How come she is now so... unethical in her revenge!
Suddenly, she remembered the time when she and Yekura were holding the Sand Village's position together.
She remembered that back then, the guys from Konoha had given her a swimsuit once, and that was the first time in all her years of fame that someone had humiliated her like that.
'Could it be that I learned it back then?' Chiyo wondered to herself.
[Ding! ~]
