Magic world

The purpose of these two monsters transformed from the Earthly Resentment was to delay Kakuzu's escape and, if possible, to kill the perception-based ninja, Kakuzu, so under the premise that Kakuzu has already escaped , did not show much combat power at all, and was quickly wiped out by Ito Cheng using ninjutsu.

"Do you remember that guy's chakra fluctuations?" Ito Cheng, who summoned Aman Congyun buried deep in the ground with his thoughts, looked at Xiang Phosphorus beside him and asked.

"Already noted it down." Xiang Phosphorus nodded firmly and replied.

"Okay, let's catch up." Ito Cheng decided immediately after receiving a positive answer.

"You show me the way." Ito Cheng said, reaching out and holding Xiang Ling in his arms.

"Over there!" Xiang Phosphorus pointed in one direction and said.

Ito nods, holds Xianglan in his arms and chases after Kakuzu in the direction where he fled.

As an old monster who has lived for almost a hundred years, Kokaku, who has experienced countless lives and deaths, is very aware of the elements when escaping, and he moves forward quickly without stopping along the way! Moreover, in order to avoid being tracked by Xiang Lian, a sensory ninja, he grabbed an ordinary villager while passing by a village. While continuing to run away, he took out the villager's heart and placed it in his body, and put the heart of the villager in his body. He took out the heart and stuffed it into the villager's body, then threw the villager's body to the side of the road. After walking a certain distance, he dug a hole in the ground with the earth and buried himself in the pit. .

Not to mention, this move really deceived Xiang Lu's perception, allowing Ito Cheng and Xiang Lu to stay next to the villager's body.

"Since he has the heart of an ordinary person, the chakra in Kakuzu's body will definitely not be able to support his actions for long. So his true body should be around here." Looking at the corpse on the ground, Ito Cheng said with a slight frown.

"I understand." Xiang Ling nodded when he heard this, closed his eyes and formed a seal to launch a large-scale search.

"How is it?" After a moment, Ito Cheng asked looking at Xiang Ling who opened his eyes again.

"About a hundred and twenty meters over there, there is a very weird chakra reaction, a bit like the feeling I felt from someone before." Xiang Ling pointed to the left front of his body and said.

"It's better to kill by mistake than to let go. Let's go over and have a look." Ito Cheng decided without hesitation, and rushed there with Xiang Phosphorus.

The distance of one hundred and twenty meters is very short, within the distance of two people. It was over in less than ten seconds. Appeared where Xiang Phosphorus sensed it. After closing his eyes and exploring carefully again, Xianglan, who reopened his eyes, nodded to Ito Cheng with certainty and pointed to the ground under his feet, indicating that the person was there.

Ito Cheng did not hesitate in his actions. He immediately leaned over and pressed his hands on the ground. The ley lines that connect this area with spiritual power. The dragon vein refining technique was activated to push the position indicated by Xiang Phosphorus out of the ground.

In an instant, a huge pillar of earth and stone with an area of ​​five by five rose up from the ground. Immediately afterwards, a hole suddenly opened on the surface of the huge earth and stone pillar that had risen to the ground, facing Ito Shige and Karin. A human-shaped object was slowly pushed out of the earth and stone pillars by the push of the soil.

This person is Kakuzu hiding here.

"How did you find me?" Kakuzu, who was very weak, looked at Ito Cheng and Xiang Su with a gloomy face and asked.

"Don't you know? She is a ninja of the perception system." Ito Cheng pointed at Xiang Lin and said softly.

"I have replaced my heart. Logically speaking, she shouldn't be able to feel me. Why." Kakuzu looked at Xiang Lin and said. He was clearly concerned about the reason for his discovery.

"Because the disgusting feeling emanating from you can't be erased even if you change your heart!" Xiang Ling said with a look of disgust.

"Are you worried about the earth's resentment..." The expression on Kakuzu's face moved slightly, and he whispered to himself in a somewhat enlightened voice. Then, he looked at Ito Cheng and asked, "She is probably not an ordinary sensory ninja."

"Not bad." Ito Cheng nodded and confirmed. As for more specific things, Ito Cheng never thought of telling Kakuzu, so after answering Kakuzu's question, he fell silent.

"Now, you will die with me!" Kakuzu, who looked at Ito Cheng and the two silently, suddenly said loudly.

As Kakuzu's voice fell, the resentment in Kakuzu's body completely exploded, forming countless slender tentacles that quickly spread towards Ito Cheng, Koso, and the west direction of Kakuzu.

When Ito Cheng saw this, he reached out and grabbed Karin's arm without any hesitation, activated teleportation and disappeared from Kakuzu's side, appearing five hundred meters away from the outbreak of the earthly resentment.

This time, the earthly resentment broke out very crazily. The twisted tentacles did not stop weakly until they spread for more than a hundred meters, and fell to the ground one by one, with Kakuzu's body as the center. A pitch-black coat covered a range of more than a hundred meters.

"The chakra fluctuation has disappeared." Xiang Ling, who frowned and sensed it for a moment, said. The meaning of these words is that it represents the death of Kakuzu and the complete end of the immortal duo of [Akatsuki].

Hearing this, Ito Cheng didn't say anything. He just walked to the edge of the Earthly Resentment with Xiang Ling, formed seals with his hands, and launched a Wood Release Ninjutsu - Tree Realm Eternal Burial - on Kakuzu's body.

Under the effect of ninjutsu, several thick branches broke out from under the ground where Kakuzu's body was, entangled with each other and coiled around Kakuzu's body, gradually coming together and tightening, until finally forming a towering tree with a thick trunk. The tree stands where Kakuzu died.

Then Ito Cheng set off another fire to burn the dead Yu Yu cleanly, and then took the phosphorus and set foot on the road to Katsurayama Castle again.

Along the way, although there were some guys who hunted for Ito's head with the intention of making money, in terms of strength, even Kakuzu and Hidan were inferior, so it took almost no effort for Ito to kill these bounty ninjas. One kill. And in this way, the notorious Ito Cheng became relaxed again.

It took a little more than four days to stop and go like this, and Ito Cheng and Xiang Ling finally entered the area where Katsurayama Castle is located. Since the name of this place is Mountain City, the place where the town was established is naturally on the mountain cliffs, so the two of them had to climb the mountain for half a day before they finally entered Geshan City.

"How is it?" Ito Cheng asked Xianglan next to him.

"No chakra has been detected that can rival the tailed beast." Xiang Ling shook his head and said.

"Is that so? Does that mean the Jinchuriki of the Six-Tails hasn't appeared here yet?" Despite his expectations, Ito Cheng couldn't help but frowned when he heard the news.

"It seems that we can only move towards the Mist Ninja Village while exploring on the road." Then, Ito Cheng said with raised eyebrows.

The two people who made up their minds first rested in Kuzuyama Castle for the night before leaving Kuzuyama Castle and headed towards the direction of Kiri Ninja Village according to Ito Cheng's plan. On the way forward, Ito Cheng and Xiang Ling used two methods: sensory detection and intelligence investigation to track down the news of the Six-Tails Jinchuuriki.

"What's wrong?" That day, Ito Cheng, who was walking on the road, suddenly noticed that the expression of Xiang Phosphorus beside him had changed, and he asked with concern.

"Over there, there is a huge chakra reflection, but the situation is a bit weird. I am not sure whether the other party is the Six-Tails Jinchūriki we are looking for." Xianglan turned his head, looking forward as if he could penetrate space, frowning said.

"That's not easy. We'll find out after we take a look." Ito Cheng couldn't help laughing after hearing this.

Naturally, Xiang Lian would not object to this proposal, so he and Ito Cheng turned around and walked towards the location of the perceived chakra source. About ten minutes later, the two arrived near the source of chakra that Xiang Ling sensed.

Ito Cheng searched around and then focused on the two people.

One is tall and the other is short. They both wear long-brimmed straw hats and black robes with red clouds. However, behind the taller one, there is a handful that is about the same length as the taller one, and his whole body is wrapped in white bandages. The thick weapon hung from its back, moving as the tall man moved.

At this time, Karin also spotted the two guys wearing the same clothes as Kakuzu and Hidan.

"A person from [Akatsuki]?" Xiang Ling turned to look at Ito Cheng beside him and asked hesitantly.

"Well, he's from [Akatsuki]. And he's an acquaintance of mine." Looking at the backs of the two people, Ito Cheng smiled.

Probably feeling the gaze of others, the two people walking slowly in front suddenly stopped, turned their heads left and right, and looked sideways at where Ito Cheng was standing.

After discovering that it was Ito, they slowly turned around and looked at each other.

"That's... the Sharingan?!" Xiang Ling said in shock when he saw the strange color of the short man's eyes. Then he looked shocked and asked in a low voice, "Is that guy the Uchiha Itachi that Meiko mentioned before?"

"Yes." Ito Cheng admitted with a slight nod, and then raised his voice to Uchiha Itachi, "Uchiha Itachi, how about we talk?"

"There seems to be nothing to talk about between us." Uchiha Itachi replied expressionlessly.

"We haven't talked about it yet. How do you know that there is nothing to talk about?" Ito Cheng mobilized his mental power to create a defensive barrier in his mind. He looked at Uchiha Itachi and said with a smile, "And now, like you, I am also a traitor to Konoha." Forbearance, maybe there is a possibility of cooperation between us."

Itachi Uchiha looked at Ito Cheng quietly for a while, and then said, "What do you want to talk to me about?"

"About the Sharingan." Ito Cheng said seriously, putting away the smile on his face.

As soon as the words fell, the scene became quiet again, and at the same time, a somewhat inexplicable and nervous aura began to spread among Ito Cheng, Xiang Lian, Uchiha Itachi, and Mikigaki Kisame... (To be continued...)
