The chakra around the Hoshikage was now fully unleashed. An enormous peacock surrounded his body.
"Looks like he's going all out," Natsuhi said, growing cautious and immediately activating her own Mysterious Peacock Method.
But Kusuo wasn't in a hurry. He still wanted to obtain a more complete "Star." The Hoshikage had already broken off a large part and moved it to the location the Demon Slayer Corps had found. Now, he had torn off two more large pieces from the one beside him. "I absolutely cannot let him damage the 'Star' any further," Kusuo thought.
With that, his body vanished. His eyes were fixed on the "Star." This was a part of the Ten-Tails! The power it contained was not something an ordinary person could cultivate. Kusuo planned to get his hands on it, extract the chakra, and give it to Obito. As for the rest, he could forge a new short sword for himself.
"Sun Breathing!" Kusuo raised his hand, and in a few minutes, he had sent tens of thousands of slashes at the Hoshikage. A barrier formed from the sword slashes appeared in front of him.
The Hoshikage clasped his hands together and immediately condensed the chakra in his body to form a chakra wall. "You think you can break through my..." But before he could finish, the sword slashes brutally shattered the defensive shield he had created.
Kusuo didn't want to waste any more time. The remaining slashes broke through the first barrier and all headed for the Hoshikage's body. In an instant, his body was exposed to the storm of blades. Although his body could recover quickly with the "Star's" help, under such a rapid assault, his recovery speed couldn't keep up with Kusuo's attack speed. But the Hoshikage still didn't want to give up. He quickly formed hand seals. "Mysterious Peacock Method: Defend!"
A giant peacock appeared in front of him, blocking all of Kusuo's attacks.
"A desperate struggle!" Kusuo narrowed his eyes, quickly drew his short sword, and slashed fiercely at the Hoshikage's neck. Puchi... A mouthful of blood spewed from the Hoshikage's mouth, and his body went limp.
At this point, he could no longer use chakra to reshape his body because Kusuo's attacks were too fast, and his blade struck the same place every time. "Since you can't die on your own, then you can die from suffocation." Kusuo's eyes were fixed on him.
This time, although the Hoshikage tried to fight back, his body couldn't respond. Not only his neck, but all of his meridians were being simultaneously cut by Kusuo. All the attacks landed on him in an instant. The Hoshikage looked at Kusuo and let out a furious roar, but when he opened his mouth, he found he couldn't make a sound. He had been trying to resist, but every attempt had failed. The Mysterious Peacock Method and his other recovery ninjutsu were all unusable.
Kusuo gave him absolutely no chance. Every time the Hoshikage raised his hand, Kusuo's blade would immediately slash at him. Under such a rapid assault, he didn't even have time to form hand seals. The peacock he had manifested before had also become increasingly faint.
"Damn it!" The Hoshikage realized his chakra couldn't keep up with his recovery needs.
"Weren't you so confident? Let's see how many more cuts you can take," Kusuo said, retreating a step and watching him with interest. Not just the Hoshikage, but no one else could withstand so many cuts in such a short time. "It's already quite impressive that you've lasted this long with the 'Star' in your hand."
Because of Kusuo's intervention, the other puppets in the village could no longer be controlled by the Hoshikage. "Take a look at them yourself."
At Kusuo's words, the Hoshikage turned his head and looked at the other people in the village. The villagers of the Hidden Star were now all looking at him with resentful eyes. "I never thought you were this kind of person."
Hearing the villagers' words, the Hoshikage showed no concern. His eyes quickly scanned over them. His will to fight was gone; his only thought now was to escape! But he had rarely left the Star Village and didn't know where to go.
"The Land of Fire! Yes! The Land of Fire!" he thought with a flicker of hope.
