Chapter 30: Masks and the idea of ??creating shadow ninjutsu
Although Kakuzu is determined to retreat, that doesn't mean he can run away if he wants.
There are two Konoha ninjas chasing behind him, they must at least get rid of both Yamato and Kakashi.
For Kakuzu, he once escaped from Hashirama, the 'God of Ninja', so logically he shouldn't be able to get rid of Kakashi and Yamato. But Kakuzu himself knows that the two cannot be compared.
The reason why Kakuzu survived after attacking Hashirama was mainly because Hashirama didn't pursue him.
Otherwise, if Hashirama drives the Thousand-Armed Buddha to chase Kakuzu, even Kakuzu's thousand hearts won't be enough. Not to mention that he hasn't acquired the secret technique of 'Earth Resentment' at that time.
Senju Hashirama is a ninja who believes in the "ridiculous" theory that "as long as everyone talks well, everything can be discussed."
But because of his strength to suppress all dissatisfaction, this theory was realized. At least it was realized while Hashirama was alive.
But when Hashirama died, the ninja world returned to its previous trajectory.
Kakashi, Yamato and others are the generation that grew up in this trend of thought. One participated in the Great Ninja War at a young age, and the other was a root ninja trained by Danzo and participated in human experiments.
There is no way these two could just watch Jiao Du run away like this.
"Ninjutsu, the art of multiple shadow clones!"
With a 'bang' sound, white smoke dispersed in all directions, and dozens of Kakashi jumped out of the smoke, dodged the masked monster's attack, and dodged into the dense forest.
This is to take a small road and block Kakuzu's escape route in advance.
Kakuzu looked at Kakashi's movements. Although there was no expression on his face, he was not calm in his heart: "As expected of Konoha's number one technician, copy ninja Kakashi is indeed difficult to deal with!"
In terms of age, Kakuzu and Hashirama are of the same generation, and Kakashi is considered his junior.
It stands to reason that the probability of a genius coming out of each ninja village should be the same. But Konoha just doesn't know why, there are always an endless stream of newcomers and juniors coming up, and each one is more powerful than the last.
Whenever someone feels that Konoha is declining, someone will jump out and give them a slap in the face, telling them that no matter how many changes there are, Konoha will always be your boss.
Hashirama died, and Tobirama stepped in; Tobirama died in the battle, and there were the Sandaime Sarutobi, Sarutobi's apprentice Sannin; the Sannin left, and another 'golden flash' Minato Namikaze appeared in Konoha, Minato's apprentice
Kakashi...
After all, Namikaze Minato died in the "Kyuubi Rebellion", and the Uchiha clan was also destroyed. Konoha must be in decline, right?
Sunagakure thought so at first, so he teamed up with Orochimaru to carry out the plan to collapse Konoha.
Immediately afterwards, a new person appeared in Konoha Village, Uzumaki Naruto, the son of the fourth generation. He single-handedly defeated Sunagakure and Sound Ninja. Then came Jiraiya and Tsunade, who were about to enter a new level as they returned.
Expect......
Kakuzu shook his head hard to clear these inappropriate thoughts from his mind.
The most important thing now is to get rid of the enemy! To this end, Kakuzu has made the determination to sacrifice several masked monsters.
"As long as you can run out, it doesn't matter if you sacrifice all the masked monsters." Jiao Tsang knew very well that as long as he was given time, he would be able to make up for all the lost masked monsters sooner or later!
With Kakuzu's determination, Kakashi, who was fighting the masked monster, felt that the enemy's offensive was becoming more and more fierce and crazy.
This masked monster didn't even care about getting hurt, but was trying hard to get Kakashi hurt.
"The enemy seems to be running away." Kakashi said to Yamato behind him.
Having experienced many battles, he could tell at a glance that Kakuzu regarded the masked monster as a victim and was about to run away.
"Yes." Captain Yamato nodded: "After taking care of this guy, let's catch up quickly."
"Wood Release-Wooden Clone Technique!"
Unlike ordinary clone techniques, the wooden clone is directly separated from Yamato's body, and then transformed from wood into Yamato's appearance. The whole process looks like Pinocchio transforming into a human.
The most important thing is that the differentiated wood clone still retains the nature of wood, and can even turn into branches to wrap around and catch enemies.
In the Fourth Ninja War in the original time and space, the resurrected Hashirama even captured the "Six Paths Obito" with this move!
Although Yamato is definitely not as good as Hashirama, Kakuzu can't compare with Six Paths Obito.
This was indeed the case. Although Kakuzu tried his best and ran as fast as he could, the two people behind him were still chasing after him.
"Hoo, ho, ho..." The trees on both sides seemed to be running backwards. In just a few breaths, Kakuzu had already run hundreds of meters away.
Grain account
This continuous forest seems to be endless. No matter how fast Koko increases his speed, there is still no way out ahead.
Even as Kakuzu kept leaping through the forest, he also felt figures following him closely on both sides.
The branches grew crazily and wantonly, intertwined together, and formed an object like a 'horse rope', suddenly blocking the road ahead!
Without even looking at Kakuzu, a mask on the shoulder opened its mouth directly:
"Wind Escape - Pressure!"
A high-pressure wind ball was spit out from the mouth of the mask, carrying an indomitable power and destroying everything in its path.
The rope formed by a series of wooden branches was naturally messed up.
Kakuzu jumped forward, and was about to rush past the previous position. When he jumped into the air, he suddenly felt something was wrong!
"Earth Escape—Earth Flow Wall!"
An earthen wall with a dog's head engraved on it suddenly rose up, blocking Kakuzu's path.
Behind him, a whirlwind blew through Kakuzu's body, rolling up the hem of his clothes.
"Thunder Release-Raikiri!"
A sudden flash of lightning illuminated the visitor's face in the darkness!
The next day, early morning. Konoha, Hokage Assistant Office.
Shikamaru knocked on the office door with a smile on his face.
Naruto raised his head and looked at Shikamaru's smiling face, knowing that there must be good news.
"What happened?"
Shikamaru handed a report to Naruto: "Do you remember that movie crew? They have boarded the express train and are about to return to Konoha."
"So, Kakuzu has been solved?" This is what Naruto paid attention to.
Shikamaru nodded: "Yes. Captain ANBU and Captain Yamato attack together, is there anyone else who can't be caught?"
In this world, Akatsuki was severely damaged by Naruto before it even threatened Konoha.
So Shikamaru didn't know how valuable it was to capture 'Kakuzu'.
In his opinion, that was just an ordinary Taki-nin village rebel ninja at best, and the threat level was probably not as high as the Kirigakure rebel-nin Zabuzazu.
"Mask Ninjutsu..." Naruto tapped his fingers on the table: "Shikamaru, can I ask for something?"
"Please say."
"I want to appreciate the Nara family's shadow ninjutsu."
Shikamaru thought that Naruto was talking about something trivial, but he didn't expect that the secret of shadow that was passed down from his family was revealed as soon as he opened his mouth.
Logically speaking, with Naruto's current strength, he shouldn't be able to spy on the Nara family's secret shadow technique.
But there's no point in delaying the answer. Shikamaru didn't dare to make the decision alone: "Well, it should be possible. I can talk to Father."
"I have some ideas about shadow ninjutsu and want to try to create my own ninjutsu. If I succeed, the Nara family can also practice it." Naruto explained the reason to Shikamaru.
After finishing all other matters, Shikamaru left the assistant office.
The moment he closed the door, he couldn't help but feel a little headache when he thought about what Naruto just said. How should he talk to his father?
