Chapter 488 Kakuzu And Biwa Juzo

"Hey hey hey, how long are we going to stay here?"

In Ameaki, Juzo, who is dressed in a black robe with red clouds pattern and a Kubikiribocho on his shoulders, looked helplessly at the similarly dressed Kakuzu beside him. On Kakuzu's shoulder, there is a sack, and in the sack, there are several heads, all of which are Shinobi that have bounties in the black market.

"We can leave after I exchange these heads for money." Kakuzu said calmly.

"Our mission does not include hunting those Shinobi with bounties." Juzo said dissatisfiedly.

"You also know that the organization lacks money, right? I do all this for the organization. You should be considerate of me." Kakuzu said righteously.

Juzo curled his lips, but he had to admit that if it wasn't for Kakuzu's strong money-gathering ability, Akatsuki still be wandering in the first step of accumulating funds.

Half an hour later, after changing all the first heads including Land of Earth's A-Rank Missing-nin, Mato Takashiro, for money, Kakuzu left Ameaki with Juzo contentedly, holding a large amount of money.

But as they walked, the two noticed something unusual.

"We seem to be followed."

Juzo clenched the Kubikiribocho tightly, and bloodthirsty light of excitement was revealed in his narrow eyes, but his mouth was not forgiving. "Kakuzu, it was your fault going to the black market to exchange money that some insects were attracted to us. You should move more carefully."

Kakuzu snorted, but doesn't make any excuses. Even he himself felt that it was a trip to the black market that attracted these stalkers, after all, he has encountered similar incidents before.

"Come out, you bastards who hide their heads and show their tails!" Juzo waved his Kubikiribocho, and the huge blade moved in the air with a shocking momentum.

'I've been discovered. There's nothing I can do about it."

Kanpū drilled out of the ground. He, who is about to become an adult, has grown to 1.85 meters now. His figure is tall and thin. And since he's wearing Anbu's attire, he looked slightly more refined.

His gaze vaguely fell on the ring on the fingers of Kakuzu and Juzo: 'North, South.' A strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth under the mask.

The other three Anbu also sprang from the vicinity, faintly surrounding Kakuzu and Juzo.

A thought flashed through Kanpū's mind, and suddenly wanted to collect the 'Lord of the Rings'.

"They are… Konoha's Anbu?"

Juzo frowned slightly, and then he turned his head to look towards Kakuzu in confusion, "Didn't you go to the black market? How did you attract Konoha's Anbu?"

Kakuzu said: "I didn't meet any Konoha's Anbu in the black market."

The two looked at each other, and they were both surprised, 'Could it be that the Land of Grass's matter was exposed?'

'But we did it without anyone noticing about the destruction of the country, and we also dealt with all the Kusagakure's Shinobi who saw us, not even a single corpse was left. No matter how awesome Konoha's Anbu is, it is impossible to find us!'

"Kakuzu, and… Biwa Juzo, you should know why we came to you now." A Konoha's Anbu said arrogantly.

"No matter what it is for, since you dare to come to us, be prepared to go to hell." Juzo sneered. Since the matter has reached this level, no matter what these Konoha's Anbu are coming for, he'll just cut them all into two halves and the matter will be over!

Juzo tip-toed, and his figure turns into an afterimage, dragging Kubikiribocho while rushing forward.

The wind howled, and the huge blade, that was like a long and flat door panel, suddenly descended on the top of Kanpū's head.

Under the wolf mask, Kanpū grinned and sneered. He drew out the Kusanagi Sword with his backhand, and swung his sword upwards neatly.

Clang!!

With the ear-piercing sound of metal colliding, an invisible wave of air visible to the naked eye spread out from the sword and scraped across Juzo's eyebrowless sneering face.

'How naive!'

'He actually dared using a mere thin sword to block my Kubikiribocho?'

Juzo expected Kubikiribocho to cut off the other party's sword, but in the next moment, he felt a huge and unmatched strength coming from the opponent's small blade.

"What?!"

With the unbelievable exclamation, Juzo was like a flat boat facing rainstorm on the sea, and was instantly thrown away by the Extraordinary Strength, and his whole figure was lifted into the sky uncontrollably!

"Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu!" (Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique)

"Katon: Gōryūka no Jutsu!" (Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique)

"Fūton: Daitoppa!" (Wind Release: Great Breakthrough)

The three Anbu around Kanpū immediately formed hand seals to use their Ninjutsu.

The wind fueled the fire, and the fire rose to its peak. The Wind and Fire Ninjutsu of the three set off a fiery frenzy in mid-air, blowing like hurricane towards Juzo in the sky, who had nowhere to rely on.

"Kakuzu!!!" Juzo placed the Kubikiribocho across his chest, feeling unsafe, he hurriedly called out his teammates.

"Doton: Doryūheki!" (Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall)

Kakuzu is already ready. He clasped his hands together and slammed his palms onto the ground. A huge earth wall instantly rises from the ground, and hitting Juzo, who fell in the sky, upwards while blocking the Wind and Fire Ninjutsu of the Konoha's Anbu.

Boom!!

Under the blowing of the hurricane, the fireball slammed into the thick earth wall, burning wildly, and instantly created countless cracks and scorched marks on the earth wall.

Immediately after, the dragon fire roared and hit the earth wall too. The lava-like flame burst into the cracks and flowed, madly destroying the inside of the earth wall. The earth wall could only persisted for a few seconds before it burst into pieces. The flames mixed with messy gravel then shot in all directions.

Kakuzu's figure flickered and immediately backed away. As for Juzo, who was hit by the earth wall, he fell right behind him.

"Kakuzu, you bastard, you definitely did it on purpose just now! I'm going to chop you!!" Juzo got up from the ground, glaring at Kakuzu with killing intent on his face, and the Kubikiribocho in his hand was about to move.

"I saved your life just now, we'll settle the account later." Kakuzu said calmly.

Juzo's mouth twitched upon hearing this, 'You actually want to collect money?!'

Not far away, listening to these two guys chatting there like no one else, Kanpū became angry, 'How can they ignore me like that?'

Kanpū immediately formed hand seal with both hands, 'Tajū Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!' (Multiple Shadow Clone Technique)

That's right, in the past few days, Kanpū has collected the most common 'Forbidden Technique' in Shinobi World from his teammates.

Bang~ bang~ bang~ ...

Accompanied by a series of explosions of white mist, thirty shadow clones appeared.

"Lightning Release: Heavy thunderstorm!"

"Katon: Gōryūka no Jutsu!"

"Suiton: Suishōha!" (Water Release: Water Colliding Wave)

"Doton: Doryūsō!" (Earth Release: Earth Flow Spears)

"Fūton: Daitoppa!"

The thirty shadow clones didn't play around, and as soon as they appeared, they immediately drew the power of Ryumyaku to replenish their Chakra, and at the same time, they scattered in all directions while forming hand seals, and when they settled down, the hand seals just completed.

In an instant, lightning sparks, fire blazed, the earth shakes, wind roared, and the water rose, the Five-Attributes Ninjutsu invaded from all directions, roaring and exploding!

Kakuzu's face changed slightly, and countless tentacles burst out of his body in an instant, turning into four weird masked monsters.

"Fūton: Atsugai!" (Wind Release: Pressure Damage)

"Katon: Zukokku!" (Fire Release: Intelligent Hard Work)

"Raiton: Gian!" (Lightning Release: False Darkness)

"Suiton: Suijinheki!" (Water Release: Water Formation Wall)

"Doton: Doryūheki!"

The four monsters created from Earth Grudge Fear plus Kakuzu's main body, happens to be Five-Attributes too.

Kakuzu divided into five, but Kanpū has 30 shadow clones. By simple calculation, if Kakuzu wanted to fight, even including his main body, he would be in one-against-six situation!

Kakuzu is very confident at first, thinking that he could crush Kanpū's shadow clones easily, but when the Ninjutsu of the two sides collided, Kakuzu instantly felt tremendous pressure!

'How can the power of this Konoha's Anbu's Ninjutsu be so powerful?!'
