He replied with a calm expression, "Is this important? The top priority is to catch this guy and make him hand over the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki he captured earlier."
"And also, did you not notice, the Taki Village's Tailed Beast Jinchuriki has already escaped?"
Jūzō looked and saw that indeed, the green-haired child was no longer beside Ryosuke.
Right now, capturing Tailed Beasts is indeed a very important matter. But judging from that angle, he really seemed to be bluffing.
In the ninja world, aside from Uchiha Madara, how could there be someone as strong as the God of Shinobi, Senju Hashirama?
One must know that the name of Senju Hashirama has been passed down to this day and will even continue for hundreds of years.
As for Kakuzu, Jūzō had never even heard of him before joining the Akatsuki. Being in the same organization, naturally, he wouldn't deliberately expose Kakuzu's boasting.
And Ryosuke, looking at the three people in front of him, slowly activated the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, his red-glowing eyes stared directly at the three in front, making the three of them feel great pressure.
Looking at the pattern in those eyes, it clearly wasn't a three-tomoe Sharingan.
Kisame even questioned, "Who exactly are you in the Uchiha clan?"
He had never heard of anyone outside the Uchiha clan being able to awaken the Mangekyo Sharingan. As for that Uchiha Madara, of course, he had the Mangekyo Sharingan.
Ryosuke heard his words and laughed. "Who told you this is the Mangekyo Sharingan? These eyes are the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan."
Upon hearing this, all three faces turned heavy. Before this, they had never heard of the term "Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan". But upon hearing the word "Eternal", an ominous feeling arose in their hearts.
It was obvious from the name alone that it was a more advanced eye than the Mangekyo Sharingan, just like how the Mangekyo Sharingan is a more advanced form of the Sharingan.
Even Jūzō and Kakuzu were a bit confused. 'This guy possessed eyes that even the current Uchiha clan didn't have. Could he really be Uchiha Madara?'
But after just a moment of thought, the two calmed down. Now it didn't matter who the opponent really was, anyone standing in their way must be eliminated.
Kakuzu's killing intent surged.He crossed his arms, and the arms on both sides actually detached from his body. Two masked monsters directly appeared from his shoulders.
"Combined Ninjutsu: Fire-Wind Chaos."
A massive flame and a high-pressure wind sphere were spat out from the two monsters' mouths, attacking the white-masked, black-robed man in front of them.
Kakuzu saw that the other party didn't even dodge, he just stood in place, with a cruel smile on his face.
'Courting death? Think these are just two ordinary A-rank ninjutsu? No, these are S-rank ninjutsu.'
Soon, there was a loud boom. The high-pressure wind sphere exploded directly, causing a violent blast and further boosting the intensity of the flames. The whole ground turned into a sea of fire.
Seeing such an astonishing attack, Jūzō's expression showed some surprise.
Kakuzu still had something to offer, this kind of combined ninjutsu greatly increased in power. Fire Release enhanced by Wind Release burns even fiercer, and with greater force. And Fire Release allows Wind Release to carry flames.
This was several levels stronger than two individual jutsu combined. It could definitely be considered S-rank ninjutsu.
Faced with such an attack, the white-masked, black-clothed man didn't even show any sign of dodging.
He was engulfed by the sea of flames, was he so easily finished off?
Before long, from within the sea of fire, a giant chakra skeletal frame appeared before them. Then, from within it, the white-masked man calmly walked out of the fire.
Seeing such a skeleton, all three of them looked grim.
This should be the Susanoo that only those with Mangekyo Sharingan from the Uchiha clan could use.
Even for them, it was their first time seeing it, and they didn't expect the defense to be so strong, able to block S-rank ninjutsu.
Ryosuke looked at the defensive skeleton he had only just formed and was slightly amazed, it blocked Kakuzu's technique that could rival S-rank ninjutsu.
Looking at the three people opposite him, "A return gift is only polite."
"You three take my move too. Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique."
He immediately clasped his hands and spat out a giant fireball. This fireball was as massive as a mountain.
Just looking at it, one could feel its extreme heat, the firelight even turned the whole earth orange.
Seeing such a mountain-sized fireball pressing down, all three had terrified expressions.
Jūzō's face even turned a bit pale. "Damn, what kind of Great Fireball Technique is this? Too terrifying."
How could someone release such a huge fireball? Just looking at its power, it was abnormally terrifying. The power of ninjutsu is related to the amount and quality of chakra in the body.
Like the Tailed Beasts, not only do they have more chakra than humans, but the quality is also far superior. So Tailed Beasts can release Tailed Beast Bombs that easily destroy mountains.
And this fireball technique gave them an even greater shock than a Tailed Beast Bomb. Just its size was on another level.
If this fireball exploded, they might be cooked within seconds.
Kisame, seeing the incoming Great Fireball Technique, also had a grave expression.
Luckily, there was a waterfall forming a river nearby. That could be used, and it would strengthen the Water Release ninjutsu he would cast.
"Jūzō, get close to the river, let's cast Water Release ninjutsu together."
Jūzō came to his senses, this was a life-and-death moment. In an instant, the two arrived at the riverbank and immediately clasped their hands to form signs.
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique."
As they formed signs and refined chakra, the water in the river reacted, swirling and transforming into two massive water dragons, charging up toward the fireball in the sky.
The two huge water dragons rushed toward the airborne Fire Release.
But even though these two dragons were much larger than normal Water Dragon Bullet Techniques, compared to the massive fireball, they still seemed a bit small.
The dragons and fireball struggled for a few seconds, then couldn't hold on. Both water dragons' heads were evaporated by the enormous fireball.
It directly continued attacking the three people.
Kisame and Jūzō were both terrified. This fireball's temperature was simply too high. Normally, Water Release counters Fire Release, giving Water the advantage.
Even if the fireball was bigger than their water dragons, thanks to elemental advantage and nearby water support, it should have been enough to block it.
But now it couldn't be stopped, this only meant the fireball's power was far too strong to extinguish easily.
