As a Hokage, I don't dare to be a loyal minister of Konoha!

After a brief shock, both Konan and Kaku came to their senses.

wrong!

This is not an earthquake!

The violent chakra fluctuations can be felt from a distance.

"There are people fighting, and they are very strong."

Using the Dance of Shiki Paper to fly into the air, Xiaonan looked into the distance with caution. The violent chakra fluctuations were unfamiliar, but for some reason they still felt familiar.

"No need to mind your own business."

The horns below reminded him that people become better with age. Ever since he fought with the first Hokage, he knew that there are people outside the world and there is a world outside the world.

To be able to cause such a big commotion, it is difficult to see the people over there. You should be in awe of this kind of existence, rather than just watching the excitement.

This is what he has realized over the years.

And compared with watching the excitement, wouldn't it be nice to go to the Fire Temple to kill the guardian nin to make extra money, and then complete the employer's tasks to make money?

He and Xiaonan set out from the Country of Rain and crossed the war-torn Country of Grass into the Country of Fire. Now they only need to walk all the way southeast to reach the Fire Temple. They are almost there. There is really no need to go north. Why bother by turning in the direction of Tian Zhiguo, wasting time and causing trouble for yourself?

"I don't want to meddle in other people's business, but"

Xiaonan still expressed her affirmation of the old man's experience, but there were exceptions to everything.

After she pointed to the sky in the distance, a look of solemnity appeared on her face.

At this moment, hundreds of dense black spots appeared in the sky over there, and from the familiar moves, she had already drawn a conclusion.

The one who took action was Akatsuki Scorpion, a member of the Akatsuki organization!

It's okay if you didn't see it. If you see it and don't go to support it, it won't be justified no matter what.

"Hundred-machine drill? How could that guy Xie be forced to this point?"

Kakuzu's eyes were serious, but he didn't want to go over to support him anymore. He had a premonition that if he went there, he would definitely get beaten.

But as a member of the Akatsuki organization, he really couldn't ignore it when Xiaonan was still with him, so he had no choice but to rush forward after Xiaonan.

And it turns out that Kakuzu's hunch was correct.

When a group of flames that seemed to be "alive" broke through the human wall composed of hundreds of machines and hit the red sand scorpion, the scorpion that had transformed itself into a puppet could not control the terrifying force at all, as if it was being manipulated by someone. It was like a football being shot, and it hit the corner in a daze.

Grass!

Isn't this cheating?

Kakuzu is furious.

It was too late to dodge, the only thing that could be done was to resist the impact and catch the opponent.

When the danger comes, even the experienced master dare not trust him too much. As his body squirms, the earthly resentment mode is activated without any reservation!

Countless lines kept flying, and finally assembled into tentacles before the Red Sand Scorpion hit him, and Konan was not idle either. From the beginning, he formed a wall of Shiki Paper Dance behind Kakuzu to help Kakuzu do it. buffer.

boom!

Finally, with a muffled sound, Kakuzu spurted out a mouthful of blood and fell directly into the paper wall behind him.

But this damn huge force continued unabated, causing him to fly backwards several hundred meters with the Red Sand Scorpion before stopping!

A feeling of weakness sets in.

After re-stabilizing his body, Kakuzu was horrified to find that only two of his five vibrant hearts were still beating, and all the others exploded immediately!

"You guy!"

Blood spurted from his mouth, but Kakuzu's eyes were filled with murderous intent, staring coldly at the red sand scorpion in his arms that was missing half of its body.

If Xiaonan wasn't right next to him, he vowed to take the opportunity to kill Xie.

The ungrateful Red Sand Scorpion not only delayed his work and made money, but also wasted his precious heart!

"Who is the enemy?"

Compared to the murderous angle, Xiaonan's tone was quite gentle, but she looked a little nervous at this time.

"Orochimaru's new patron, he calls him Lord Hicheng, with white pupils. It is initially judged that he is a member of the Hyuga clan, and his status in the clan is not low."

Most of the body made of the puppet was disabled. The modified heart on the chest of the Red Sand Scorpion was tried for a long time, but in the end, it still failed to stand up from Kakuzu's body, and the whole body was extremely close to paralysis.

But he was a puppet master anyway, so being paralyzed was not a big problem. Without wasting any time, Xie quickly channeled the Third Kazekage's puppet to hold him up. With the puppet to rely on, he finally stood up again.

But what surprised both Konan and Kakuzu was that after the man known as the eternal artist summoned a new puppet, he did not threaten to fight back.

"run!"

Run quickly!

This was an order he gave to his puppet, and it was also a reminder to his companions.

Running too slow will really kill you!

This is also the only and true thought of the Red Sand Scorpion.

And his ideas and angles are surprisingly consistent.

This guy.

The unexpectedly candid and timeless artist now seems a lot more pleasing to the eye.

If you can't fight, just run away, there's nothing to be ashamed of!

But the Hyuga clan? Risei-kun? Hinata Hinata?

Why does it sound so familiar?

Kakuzu scratched his head in confusion, then his expression changed, and he quickly took out a list. This was the assassination list given to the Akatsuki organization by his employer!

This is also the reason why he and Xiaonan sneaked into the Fire Country this time.

Looking down, Kakuzu finally understood why he felt familiar.

His little hands trembled, his body trembled, and then his face was full of struggle.

Kakuzu looked ahead at the ravine on the ground where he had transformed into the Red Sand Scorpion, and then looked at the half-eaten body of the other party.

The windfall is right in front of you, but your strength seems to be beyond your capabilities!

Isn’t this employer a scammer?

Maybe he was just using a borrowed knife to kill people! But the person he killed was himself, a highly respected master who had fought against the First Hokage!

The enemy is so powerful that there is probably no money to be made.

Kakuzu turned around and ran away with anger on his face!

"I can't do this job! Whoever wants to do it can do it!"

The minority obeys the majority.

Even if Xiaonan is still curious, she still has to respect the opinions of her teammates.

retreat!

Not a second can be lost.

The next moment, Earthly Resentment Yu, the puppet of the Third Kazekage, Shikizuki Dance soared into the sky, and rushed straight towards the Country of Grass, intending to cross it and fall into the arms of the leader as quickly as possible.

But they didn't know that it was in a tree not far from them.

The masked Uchiha Obito was watching them, while Zetsu next to him showed only one head and his eyes were full of worry.

"Why don't we forget about the mission? It just so happens that you can take good care of yourself."

Yes.

Just recuperate.

Black Zetsu didn't even know how Obito was injured, and it looked serious.

The only good news is that the location that was hit was the half that was once crushed by the stone. Otherwise, it is not certain that he would have died on the spot. Fortunately, after Madara died, there were a lot of Hashirama cells stored in the stronghold of the Hill Cemetery. , otherwise Obito would probably be useless even if he recovered.
