Swish!
"Tsk, still a little short..."
Shinji, who stood up again from the rubble, seemed to shake his head with some dissatisfaction.
The Kubikiribōchō seemed incredibly sharp, but it was just an illusion. It was fine to use it to cut ordinary people, but if it encountered enemies with high-intensity defense, it would be in an awkward situation where it couldn't cut through.
There was nothing to say about the two times it was broken in the original work. One time it was used to resist the Tailed Beast Ball, and the second time it was directly broken by the Raikage with a punch.
No wonder it was called the Broken Blade.
It broke at every turn, which was also a pitfall.
Now, although Shinji had transformed it into a cursed tool, making it more powerful, the material itself had not been improved much.
In other words, it still couldn't cut through what it couldn't cut through, and it would still break when it was time to break.
Otherwise, how could Kakuzu have had a chance to counterattack with that previous strike.
Of course, Stealth Break Strike was a divine skill in a small area, and he couldn't abandon the Kubikiribōchō.
It was just that he inevitably had some ideas, wanting to get another more resilient and sharp weapon, and it would be best if it could also have a targeted restraint effect on Cursed Spirits.
But he was just thinking about it for the time being. That kind of powerful weapon was not so easy to find, let alone have the potential to evolve into a cursed tool.
To be honest, he still hadn't figured out what this condition was.
Before Shinji could think too much, the angry Kakuzu already had new actions.
In addition to the water-attribute heart that was destroyed and the earth-attribute heart in his own body, the remaining three hearts turned into masked monsters and immediately concentrated in Kakuzu's only remaining left hand!
Chakra of wind, fire, and lightning attributes began to shine with blue light in the mouths of the masked monsters.
Seeing this, Shinji didn't dare to be careless and immediately began to move quickly, refusing to be locked on by Kakuzu's ultimate move, while quickly approaching Kakuzu.
Although ordinary physical attacks couldn't break through Kakuzu's Earth Release at all, close combat was still considered one of Kakuzu's weaknesses. At least compared to his powerful and skilled five-attribute ninjutsu, Kakuzu's close combat was indeed very 'average'.
And Shinji's thinking was also very simple, he couldn't let Kakuzu recklessly transform into a ninjutsu turret and bombard him.
Forcing Kakuzu to fight in the way he was most uncomfortable would cripple most of his skills.
Kakuzu, who was holding up his arm, had a gloomy but extremely calm expression. Although he couldn't lock on to the enemy for the time being, he didn't believe that the other party could maintain this high-speed movement state all the time.
As long as this kid slowed down, he would send him to the sky with this shot!
So Kakuzu simply kept it charged, maintaining the energy storage state.
Now that both of them knew what the other was thinking, the situation seemed to be a stalemate.
Suddenly, Shinji's footsteps paused slightly, but Kakuzu was not fooled and was still observing calmly.
Sure enough, Shinji's pause was fake, nothing happened, and he immediately resumed his previous high-speed movement state.
Then there were two more tests, and Kakuzu remained unmoved.
Shinji turned his head and rushed directly towards Kakuzu on the fourth pause, seemingly not caring about the huge chakra condensed in Kakuzu's hand.
But when Kakuzu's eyelids twitched and aimed at the kid with his left hand, Shinji once again burst out with amazing speed and began to move horizontally.
At the last moment, Kakuzu still resisted and did not release the ninjutsu, nor was he fooled.
It seemed that the situation had become a stalemate again.
But suddenly, Shinji turned his steps again and rushed towards Kakuzu, directly ignoring the blue sparks shining in his hand.
Kakuzu frowned. Although he aimed at the kid in the first time, he did not release the attack immediately, worried that the other party was feinting.
But looking at the infinitely shortened distance between the two sides, Kakuzu knew that he couldn't wait any longer.
If he didn't release it, he would be the one who became passive!
"Die, kid!"
Earth Grudge Fear: Final Shot!
A chakra cannon that condensed a large amount of chakra and was almost fully charged was fired!
In an instant, Shinji's eyes were filled with terrifying blue light.
It was too close, and the attack speed of this chakra cannon was very fast!
Although Shinji had prepared in advance and rehearsed it several times in his mind, even at this moment, he was not sure that he would succeed.
Using his strong control over his body, Shinji first leaped to the side at the fastest speed, while holding the Kubikiribōchō upright in front of him and making a certain tilt, and finally used Blood Manipulation Technique: Blood Crystal Prison to protect himself.
This series of responses was almost completed in the instant Kakuzu released the final shot.
Then, the terrifying chakra cannon directly hit the Kubikiribōchō.
Boom!
Crack
Because of the angle, Shinji was only grazed, and the whole person was directly blown away by the force. The Kubikiribōchō in his hand also broke into two pieces.
However, with the protection of the Blood Crystal Prison, he only suffered some minor injuries when he finally landed.
Shinji didn't care about these at all. After landing, he immediately looked up.
His reckless attack at the end had a reason.
Because his vision was blocked, Kakuzu didn't notice that in his attack route, in addition to the enemy, there was also Konan!
And by the time Shinji was blown away, it was too late even if Kakuzu saw it.
The powerful chakra cannon shot straight towards Konan not far away!
Boom!!!
The earth shook, and a whole row of weathered and dilapidated houses was directly erased.
After everything settled down, the battlefield was a mess.
Looking at the center of the explosion, a figure with a pair of wings was hovering in the air, the lower body had disappeared, and the face was cold and murderous!
If she hadn't used the Art of Paper Person Transformation at the fastest speed, turning her body into countless paper-like pieces and rising into the air, perhaps even a complete corpse could not be found at this moment.
Konan's face was frosty, and her heart was full of anger.
"Kakuzu, I need an explanation."
"It was my carelessness. The attack position that kid chose at the end was not a coincidence, but intentional."
Kakuzu's expression was also very unsightly at this time, not only because of Konan's questioning, but also because he had been tricked just now.
Fortunately, Konan was good at saving her life, otherwise, even if he had fifty hearts instead of just five, it wouldn't be enough for that man to kill!
Pain was probably the second terrifying guy he had ever seen, besides Hashirama Senju, the God of Shinobi, who made him unable to resist.
And he almost accidentally killed the woman closest to that man just now...
"Unforgivable!"
Kakuzu angrily raised his only remaining left arm again, and the three masked monsters immediately entered the energy storage state.
With his huge amount of chakra, he could continuously release such powerful ninjutsu.
And Konan also looked coldly at someone...
