Naruto: Sasuke Reborn – No Clan Massacre! No Injustice!

Chapter 182: Chapter 181: A Critical Hit



"Lightning Release False Darkness Jutsu"

A fierce flash of light zigzagged at a right - angle in the air, passing by Kakashi and aiming at Suigetsu.

"Lightning Cutter"

Suigetsu had no way to defend himself. Immediately, Kakashi stepped in to help. The Lightning Release Chakra he condensed on his hand absorbed the False Darkness technique.

The attack grazed Suigetsu's neck, and he barely managed to escape with his life.

"Whew... that was a close call!"

"Your name is Suigetsu, right? As you suggested, I'll break the mask of the Lightning Release first, and then it's up to you to handle things!"

Suigetsu pouted, clearly dissatisfied, but considering that Kakashi had just saved his life, he agreed.

"Don't worry. Without Lightning Release, I don't even take this kind of guy seriously!"

.....

Hearing the two still chatting, Kakuzu narrowed his eyes, clearly annoyed.

"Sounds like you think you can succeed. Well, then, come and try!"

He swept aside his wide robe, revealing his well - built body. His hands moved rapidly, forming hand seals, and black threads emerged from all over his body, splitting into eight strands.

The black threads whirled rapidly behind him, resembling the legs of a spider. Then Kakuzu manipulated these threads and launched a simultaneous attack on the two.

Compared with the previous elemental attacks, this physical attack gave Kakashi quite a hard time. Fortunately, his Taijutsu was good, and with the insight of his Sharingan, he could dodge the attacks with relative ease.

The two dodged awkwardly and couldn't find an opportunity to counter - attack for a moment.

Suddenly, Kakuzu noticed that Kakashi and Suigetsu were struggling. He quickly changed the hand seals.

"Combined Ninjutsu: Blazing Wind Turbulence Wave Jutsu"

The Wind Release and Fire Release masks were activated simultaneously. Instantly, the arena turned into a sea of flames. Feeling the intense heat in the surrounding air, a smug smile appeared on Suigetsu's face.

Come on! He was not afraid of Fire Release at all! He and Kakashi exchanged a glance and formed hand seals in the same rhythm.

"Water Release: Double Water Dragon Bullet Jutsu"

Two huge water dragons emerged out of thin air and tightly coiled around the flames shot by the Earth Grudge Fear. Water overcomes fire.

The exaggerated flames were instantly extinguished. The steaming heat blurred everyone's vision. With so much steam billowing, they could only rely on years of combat experience to judge the rival's position.

"This is bad!"

Kakashi muttered to himself. Since Kakuzu was alone, it didn't matter who he attacked. But on their side, there were him and Suigetsu. If they misjudged the target, it would be a disaster.

For a moment, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he couldn't think of any good ideas.

Just as he was thinking about what to do next, a blurred figure in front suddenly alerted Kakashi.

"Who's there?"

Who was it? Kakuzu or Suigetsu?

"Hey! Kakashi, it's me!"

Sensing that Kakashi was about to attack, Suigetsu quickly spoke up, greeting him, afraid that he would attack the wrong person.

"You scared me. It's just you, Suigetsu."

Kakashi withdrew his hand and let out a sigh of relief as if relaxing.

The sudden thick fog left them a bit at a loss, especially since Kakashi wasn't very familiar with Suigetsu.

"In such thick fog, you should be more careful. If you let your guard down now, what if Kakuzu launches a sneak attack?"

Looking at Kakashi, who had already relaxed, Suigetsu pouted and complained.

"Don't worry. The only ones who can kill silently in this kind of environment are those who have practiced the [Silent Killing Technique], like Zabuza. Otherwise, it's impossible for him to launch a precise attack on me!"

"That's good!"

Suigetsu also completely relaxed. It seemed that the rival was really stupid, creating a big problem for himself.

"Ah..."

Suigetsu lowered his head and saw a big hole in his heart. A hand had pierced through it, with a faint, twinkling glow on it.

"You... you..."

Having succeeded in his scheme, the hand quickly withdrew. Suigetsu turned to look at Kakashi in disbelief and stepped back.

His pupils trembled, his body shook, and suddenly his face changed.

"When did you discover that I wasn't Suigetsu?"

Suigetsu's appearance began to change. As the [Transformation Jutsu] dissipated, Kakuzu regained his composure. The cold, blue mask cracked and shattered into pieces on the ground, and the threads on his body also turned into thick black liquid.

"From the very beginning!"

Kakashi waved his hand, and the lightning on it instantly dissipated.

"Was there a flaw in my Transformation Jutsu, or did I not imitate him well?"

Kakashi and Suigetsu weren't really familiar with each other. Even if he made some minor mistakes, they shouldn't have noticed. But in reality, Kakashi had made his move so cleanly.

What on earth did he do wrong?

"No! You imitated all of Suigetsu's behaviors very well and didn't leave any flaws. It's just that I decided from the start that no matter who appeared in front of me, I would attack without mercy!"

Kakashi said it casually, but it raised great doubts in Kakuzu's mind.

"Are you crazy? Aren't you companions? What if you attack the wrong person? That could be fatal!"

"Humph! You're the stupid one. That kid Suigetsu, even if he doesn't admit it on the surface, he's always quite repulsed by ninjas who use [Lightning Release]. His eyes always casually observe my actions. Although we haven't spent a long time together, he's never turned his back to me. Obviously, he doesn't trust me!"

"But just now, you turned your back. Even in an emergency, Suigetsu would still keep a good amount of attention on me. So even if I used the [Lightning Cutter] to attack, he would definitely be able to dodge it!"

"Am I right, Suigetsu?"

As he said this, Kakashi suddenly glanced to the right.

"Water Iron Cannon: Twin Shots"

As soon as Kakashi finished speaking, two streams of liquid shot out at great speed from the thick fog, piercing through the masks of two [Earth Grudge Fear] right between the eyebrows.

This unexpected move caught Kakuzu off guard, and he instantly lost two hearts. Looking at the pool of black water on the ground, he got angry.

"Damn it! You've destroyed three of my hearts. I'll take yours!"

Saying this, his arm dislocated again, and the long black threads shot towards Kakashi and his hearts. But his plan didn't succeed.

From where Kakuzu couldn't see, water cannons shot from fingertips were like a shotgun, coming one after another in rapid succession.

Kakuzu quickly dodged, but no matter how he dodged, the water cannons always accurately target the location of his heart.

"Why can they still know my position clearly in this unclear environment? What kind of tricks are you guys using!"

Watching his fourth [mask] being broken, Kakuzu, who only had one heart left, impatiently shouted out the question.
