Red sand dust

Relying on the inseparable connection between the White Zetsu clones and the main body, Ibaraki and Hidan walked in the corridor with the sound of dripping water.

The stone walls glowing with white light extend to the end where no end can be seen.

Except for a few areas where the ceiling fell down and the stone pillars supporting the top fell to the side, which looked a bit messy, the huge underground passage was relatively orderly. As long as you follow the guidance of the White Zetsu clone, you should be able to quickly find the source of the two-tailed Jinchūriki. The position of the wooden man.

only……

"Something's wrong..."

White Zetsu's ugly head appeared on Hidan's shoulder again,

"That guy seemed to have noticed our arrival. He suddenly accelerated his speed and kept changing his position in order to escape pursuit..."

"So alert?"

Hidan smacked his mouth in dissatisfaction.

Apart from his immortality, weird spells, and superior physical skills, Hidan, a secretive ninja who has no other advantage, hates hide-and-seek battles. He is interested in head-on confrontation and killing the enemy.

"It's probably not because of her keen senses and early detection, but because the characteristics of the second tail are helping her..."

Even if Yukito hasn't reached the level of a perfect Jinchuuriki, he's not far off.

The great thing about Kumo Ninja is not only because of its developed economy and strong combat power, but also because Kumo Ninja is very good at summarizing experience and lessons, and has a strong ability to make up for shortcomings after suffering setbacks.

For example, after the air combat troops of Sunagakure Village showed their super combat effectiveness, among the major ninja villages in the ninja world, the first one to make a breakthrough in air defense weapons was the Kumo ninja. They started almost two years late. Not only did they start Rapid-fire anti-aircraft guns and high-explosive barrage fire nets were developed, and extraordinary progress was made in the breeding of large birds of prey for passenger use.

Many years ago, after suffering great losses in the training of the Eight-Tailed Jinchuuriki, Burubi, the Kumo ninja learned the lesson and quickly adjusted the selection mode of Jinchuuriki and developed the "Waterfall of Truth" as a mental training system. place.

The Eight-Tailed Jinchuuriki Kirabi and the Two-Tailed Jinchuuriki Yukito undoubtedly enjoyed this achievement and made rapid progress on the road to becoming the perfect Jinchuuriki.

"If the second-tailed Jinchuuriki is difficult to deal with, the two of you should join forces..."

The White Zetsu clone suggested kindly, but Hidan and Ibaraki had no intention of listening.

"give it to me……"

Hidan, who had recovered mostly but not completely, was eager to give it a try.

"I have never experienced the despair of a jinchuriki when he is about to die. Is it the same as an ordinary ninja?"

"Then you come first and let me see what you are capable of. If you are not qualified to be my partner, some strange things may happen. Don't blame fate for being too cruel..."

Ibaraki teased in a sinister tone,

"Behave well and don't let me down..."

With such a condescending attitude, Hidan was a little annoyed when he said such rude words, but now was not the time for internal strife. After catching the two-tailed Jinchūriki Yukito and recovering, he could have a good fight with the new guys. .

The believers of the "Evil God" who had made up their minds picked up the bloody March Scythe on their backs, and the attached chains swayed, making a crisp sound.

Immediately afterwards, Hidan accelerated suddenly and quickly pursued towards the depths of the corridor. Ibaraki shrugged his shoulders as if the opponent's performance did not exist and paced forward slowly.

This chase-and-escape game lasted for nearly a quarter of an hour. When Ibaraki heard the sound of the battle ahead and stepped across an arch-shaped waterway exit, he saw the two-tailed Jinchūriki Yukijin defeating Hidan with just the power of his chakra. Pressed to the ground and unable to move.

Just as Ibaraki approached, without waiting for further reaction, a violent explosion suddenly came from behind. Ibaraki, who covered the flying gravel with his hand, was not seriously injured, but the way he came had been completely blocked.

In this tunnel that is more than 30 meters underground, the only exit is gone. Looking around, I can see that the water valve above has long been broken. A thick cast iron ceiling is suppressing the place. Everything around me is obvious at a glance. Granite mountain rock formations that cannot be dug.

"As expected, you are here. Judging from your attire, you are the villains of the Akatsuki organization, right? Don't think that we Kumo ninja are weak chickens like Iwa ninja and Sand ninja. We are just rebel ninjas, but we dare to come to the Kingdom of Thunder to run wild?"

The practice progressed very smoothly, and Yumu Ren, who had mastered the independent and complete body-tailed beast transformation, said very confidently,

"Greedy guys, do you think I'm afraid of you? I lured you two here. You should die. In the name of my two Yumu people, I will kill you!"

"What a dynamic guy..."

Hidan, who used the long handle of the Bloody March Scythe as a crutch to stand up, was quickly adapting to the pressure brought by the powerful enemy in front of him.

After moving his stiff limbs and somewhat uncomfortable neck, he swung the weapon gracefully, put it on his shoulder, and stormed away in the direction of Yumu Ren.

In terms of physical skills, Hidan's strength cannot be compared with monsters like Metkai, but in the "Akatsuki" organization, he is already at the top.

In the ninja world where monsters are everywhere, pure physical skills, unless it is a forbidden skill like the Eight Gate Dunjia, will not be able to make a ninja's strength rise by leaps and bounds.

However, in this seemingly spacious but actually completely enclosed underground space, physical skills still have their place.

The fingers of the two wooden men were seen to have transformed into sharp claws, which looked exactly like those of large cats.

He used his sharp claws to block the bloody March Scythe that Hidan was sweeping across, and then took advantage of the momentum to fly back. Before he landed, he spat out a mouthful of blue fireball from a high position, tracing an arc and tracking Hidan's dodge.

Seeing that he couldn't get rid of it, Hidan simply slashed hard with the back of the thick blade of the Bloody Mitsuki Scythe, blowing it up, and then exploded quickly, emitting light, heat and shock waves, and spreading around with the slightest trace of mental damage. .

"It's actually a cumulative mental chakra toxin. No wonder we are lured here for a decisive battle. As time goes by, the enemy will be in a chaotic illusion that becomes more and more powerful all the time. The longer we delay, the more disadvantageous it becomes..."

It was a good idea, but it was a pity that he jumped on the wrong opponent. Neither Hidan nor Ibaraki was the type to do this. If Yukito had run away without hesitation before, there might have been hope for survival. Now, as a smart girl, she was basically free. Dancing to death.

Yukito's fighting style favors illusion and taijutsu, and has an obvious advantage in dexterity. However, the female ninja's physical disadvantage is very obvious in front of Hidan, and she is obviously no match for him in a protracted battle.

After some testing, he realized that Hidan was not easy to deal with, and Ibaraki was eyeing the raiding formation. Yukito did not dare to be careless, and released ten blue flaming fireballs, pulled by the chakra threads controlled by his ten fingers. , bombing continuously into a fire formation.
