"Are you doubting my intelligence-gathering abilities?" The man with multiple stitches on his body looked coldly at his companion.
“I’m stating the facts. You keep changing your mind, saying the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is in the Land of Fire, then the Land of Wind, then the Land of Earth. Do you think he can teleport?”
"That's the information I received."
The two were Kakuzu and Hidan.
After receiving the leader's orders, the two embarked on a journey to find Naruto.
Logically speaking, shouldn't the Kage stay in their own country? That's why Kakuzu and Hidan went to Konoha to look for them.
However, according to information Kakuzu obtained on the black market, Naruto was in the Land of Wind, and it was claimed that many people had seen him.
When they arrived at the border of the Land of Fire and were preparing to go to the Land of Wind, that amazing guy in the Akatsuki organization said that Naruto had appeared in Iwagakure and even met with the Tsuchikage.
They then hurried off to the Land of Earth.
Now Zetsu has come out and said that Naruto has left the Land of Earth and is preparing to return to the Land of Fire.
Are you kidding us?!
But Kakuzu, who had lived for many years, knew that this information might all be true.
During the Fourth Shinobi World War, he once went to the battlefield hoping to find a loot spot, and happened to see the Yellow Flash fighting against the Iwagakure forces.
He witnessed Minato Namikaze constantly appearing in various locations on the battlefield, each teleportation representing the death of an Iwagakure ninja.
Therefore, Kakuzu was well aware that Konoha did indeed possess ninjutsu that allowed people to teleport instantly.
Could it be that Konoha has produced another Yellow Flash?
Just as Kakuzu was thinking this, he was suddenly patted on the shoulder.
"It sounds like...you're looking for me?"
Before Kakuzu could react, a strangely shaped kunai had already pierced through his chest.
When?! Why didn't I notice at all?
Kakuzu quickly activated the Earth Grudge Mode, and two black masked monsters emerged from his body, pulling him away from the person behind him.
Only then did Kakuzu realize who had attacked him.
"Naruto Uzumaki?" Kakuzu looked somewhat surprised and doubtful.
They had been searching for so many days without finding it, and now it had appeared in front of them on its own?
For a moment, Kakuzu's feelings were somewhat complicated.
"Hey, Kakuzu, don't just focus on saving yourself, save me too!" Hidan yelled.
He doesn't have the Earth Grudge Fear mode, and he's still being held captive by Naruto.
Naruto looked at Hidan, who was struggling, and Kakuzu, who was still alive and kicking despite having his heart pierced. His eyes were filled with curiosity.
"You two seem to have some special abilities? Come on, show me all your abilities."
Why Naruto is here has to do with what happened half an hour ago.
After leaving Iwagakure, Naruto did not immediately use the Flying Thunder God Technique to return to Konoha.
He flew in mid-air at a slow speed, while simultaneously expanding the range of Kagura's Mind's Eye perception to its maximum.
Naruto wanted to try to find the defected Four-Tails Jinchuriki, Rōshi, and the Six-Tails Jinchuriki, Utakata.
Currently, Naruto only lacks the chakra of the Four-Tails, Six-Tails, and Seven-Tails.
The Seven-Tails is manageable; Naruto knows he can find it in Takigakure. But the Four-Tails and Six-Tails are more troublesome, which is why he wanted to try his luck on the way back.
As a result, Naruto sensed six powerful chakras not long after they started flying, five of which were very strange and were extremely close together.
Naruto became curious and flew over to take a look.
As soon as he arrived, he overheard two people discussing how to capture him, and they were even wearing Akatsuki uniforms.
Naruto immediately struck first.
What he didn't expect was that both of them had an excessively strong vitality; they didn't die even after their hearts were pierced.
“I clearly sensed six streams of chakra earlier, but when I came over I only saw the two of you. So the other four streams of chakra must belong to those black-masked monsters?” Naruto said.
Kakuzu coldly looked at Naruto: "To be able to launch a sneak attack without Hidan and me noticing, it seems that you, the Fifth Hokage, are indeed not simple."
"It even reminds me of the First Hokage who once fought me."
Naruto looked at Kakuzu with a strange expression after hearing this: "Fighting the First Hokage? Who? You?"
Naruto did indeed fight the resurrected First Hokage, but because Orochimaru's resurrection technique was not yet perfect and he was afraid of losing control, the First Hokage at that time could not even unleash one-tenth of his strength.
However, Naruto had also seen the soul of the First Hokage, and just from the strength of that soul, he knew that the First Hokage was no ordinary person.
And now, this guy covered in stitches is actually saying that he fought the First Hokage?
"You didn't throw a shuriken at the First Hokage from 800 miles away, then desperately ran away for seven days and seven nights, and then claim you fought the First Hokage, did you?" Naruto suggested the only possibility.
Upon hearing this, Kakuzu's face immediately darkened: "You're asking for death!"
"Fire Escape·Tou Ke Ku!"
The red-mouthed masked monster opened its mouth menacingly, spewing forth a torrent of furious flames that instantly expanded to resemble a sea of fire, with raging flames rushing towards them.
Seeing this, Naruto didn't bother to fight with ninjutsu, since he could fly, so he could just take to the air.
He was fine, but Hidan below him was in trouble.
"Hey! Kakuzu, can you please watch where you're going? You only burned me!"
Hidan was severely burned all over his body at this moment. A normal person would have died long ago, but he was still alive and kicking.
"An immortal being? Interesting."
Naruto suddenly teleported in front of Hidan, used Wind Release to enhance the Flying Thunder God kunai in his hand, and swung it down to cut off Hidan's head.
Surprisingly, Hidan did not die even so.
His head rolled to the ground, and he kept yelling.
"Ouch! It hurts! It hurts so much!"
"You won't die even if you cut off your head?" Naruto asked, somewhat surprised.
"Kakuzu, hurry up and sew my head back on!"
Kakuzu didn't pay attention to Hidan's screams; he was only wondering how Naruto had teleported.
Minato Namikaze always teleports near the Flying Thunder God Kunai, and Naruto Uzumaki should be no exception, but there are clearly no Flying Thunder God Kunai on the ground.
Could it be that...
Kakuzu had a guess and was startled. He quickly untied the black lines on his arm, separating his wrist from his arm, and shot out a large number of black lines from his arm to cover his side.
Sure enough, Naruto appeared nearby the next moment and swung his Flying Thunder God kunai at him.
However, Kakuzu was fortunate enough to avoid being killed by Naruto again because he had made preparations in advance.
"You actually placed the Flying Thunder God Mark on us while you were piercing our hearts!" Kakuzu was both shocked and furious.
"Hmm? Uncle, you seem to know quite a bit about the Flying Thunder God Technique. You even said you fought the First Hokage. How old are you anyway?"
Naruto stopped and looked at Kakuzu, then suddenly revealed a malicious smile.
"Uncle, what would you do if I went home now, and then every now and then the Thunder God would come and slash you with his sword, then leave, and this cycle would continue?"
Upon hearing this, Kakuzu subconsciously began to imagine such a scene.
If Naruto were to stab him at a crucial moment in a battle, stab him while he's eating, or even stab him while he's counting his money...
Kakuzu dared not think any further; he was afraid he would go insane.
"you......"
Before Kakuzu could finish speaking, Naruto's figure disappeared from the spot.
Oops!
Kakuzu sensed something was wrong and cautiously looked around, wanting to counterattack the moment Naruto appeared.
However, as the user of the Flying Thunder God Technique, Naruto's reaction speed is much faster than Kakuzu's.
Naruto suddenly appeared beside Kakuzu, then disappeared just as Kakuzu launched a black line attack at him.
Upon seeing this, Kakuzu quickly moved the two black-masked monsters to his side to protect him from Naruto.
However, Naruto also considered the possibility that Kakuzu had set up an attack in advance, and created a new tactic.
The next time Naruto reappears, he'll be accompanied by a clay spider that's about to explode!
By this time, Kakuzu had no time to dodge, but he wasn't too worried.
It's just a clay spider. I don't know why Naruto would use this move, but I remember Deidara used it before and it wasn't that powerful.
Of course, just in case, Kakuzu still used "Earth Release: Earth Spear" to harden his body, greatly enhancing his defense.
As planned, the clay spider shouldn't be able to break through his defenses, giving him time to think about how to counter the Flying Thunder God technique.
However, what happened next greatly shocked Kakuzu.
Boom! ! !
The area within several hundred meters was completely leveled!
Kakuzu, covered in dust and grime from the explosion, looked as if he had seen a ghost.
Is this still detonating clay?
Deidara had also been a member of the Akatsuki, so Kakuzu had seen the clay spider.
But Deidara's previous attacks were never this powerful.
If I hadn't used the earthen spear beforehand, I probably would have been blown to death.
Before Kakuzu could catch his breath, Naruto reappeared, wielding his Flying Thunder God Kunai and instantly killing a black-masked monster that was already severely damaged in the explosion.
Kakuzu was immediately heartbroken, because he truly felt a physical pain in his heart.
Naruto soon reappeared opposite him, looking at Kakuzu with great interest.
"If I'm not mistaken, your companion is immortal, but you are not; you just have more lives."
