Might Guy was quickly trapped by a rubber-like jutsu cast by one of the pirate leaders.
No matter how hard Kai struggled, he couldn't muster an ounce of strength.
"Kai-sensei! I'm coming to save you!"
Naruto, along with Yamato, rushed to rescue him.
But not only did they fail to free Kai, they ended up getting caught in the same trap.
"Hmph! Konoha ninja are nothing special!"
"Tch, looks like it's up to me."
Seeing Kai, Naruto, and Yamato all stuck, Kazama shook his head with a sigh.
"Kid, you're the one I've been waiting for!"
The pirate leader tried the same trick again, aiming to trap Kazama too.
"Punk, don't think you're hot stuff just because you blocked my chakra cannon with your Suiton (Water Release)! Let me tell you, my Rubber Jutsu is insanely sticky. Once it touches you, you're done for, haha!"
The pirate leader cackled, thinking he'd trapped Kai, Yamato, Naruto, and Kazama all at once.
But to his shock, his Rubber Jutsu had no effect on Kazama.
Not only that, Kazama somehow absorbed it into his body.
Ding! Successfully absorbed Rubber Jutsu. Congratulations, host, for obtaining Rubber Monster Jutsu!
"You… you absorbed my Rubber Jutsu?!"
The pirate leader had never seen anything like it and stood there, jaw dropped.
"Your Rubber Jutsu is trash. Let me show you my Rubber Jutsu!"
"What?! You can use Rubber Jutsu too?"
The pirate leader's shock doubled at Kazama's words.
"Impossible! I'm the only one in the world who can use Rubber Jutsu!"
"Impossible, huh? Take this—Rubber Monster Jutsu!"
As Kazama spoke, a monster with a rubber head materialized instantly and swallowed the pirate leader whole.
"You little punk, you're dead!"
Seeing his comrade defeated, another pirate leader flew into a rage.
"Jiton: Iron Sand Fist!"
His right fist became encased in magnetic sand, smashing Kazama's rubber monster to pieces.
"Kid, even if you stole that Rubber Jutsu, you're no match for my Jiton (Magnet Release). I'm gonna tear you apart!"
The pirate leader swung his massive magnetic iron fist at Kazama again.
Ding! Successfully absorbed Jiton: Iron Sand Fist. Congratulations, host, for obtaining Jiton: Iron Sand Surge!
"You're not even afraid of my Jiton?!"
The pirate leader was floored when Kazama absorbed his magnetic sand attack too.
He'd been certain his powerful Jiton would overwhelm Kazama, but Kazama shut him down in seconds.
"This is your so-called Jiton? Not impressed."
"You're pissing me off!"
Humiliated and mocked, the Jiton-wielding pirate was livid and charged at Kazama again.
"I'm not just gonna piss you off—I'm gonna crush you! Jiton: Iron Sand Surge!"
With a casual wave of his hand, Kazama summoned a tidal wave of iron sand that blocked the pirate's attack and buried him under layers of it.
"Hmph! Not bad for a Konoha ninja. You've got some skills!"
At that moment, the last pirate leader, who'd been silent until now, began forming hand signs and floated into the air.
