22- Save Kushina (Part 3)

Sato didn't expect Ryuu to react so quickly to his attack. The speed he used was very fast, so even if he used it directly in front of the enemy, the enemy wouldn't respond so quickly and wouldn't counterattack.

Ryuu hits Sato with the Odama Rasengan in the chest.

The impact of Odama Rasengan's collision with Sato was so strong that it shattered the ground around him.

After the impact of the blow ended, dust covered the area where Sato, Ryuu, and Kushina were previously, obscuring Kato and Renko's eyes.

Once the dust cleared, there was no sign of Ryuu or Kushina, and Sato was lying on the rubble with blood coming out of his mouth and he was unconscious.

Sato's rib cage was smashed, his internal organs were badly damaged, and he was close to death.

"Katou, find them with Sensing Technique quickly," Renko said as he went to check on Sato's injuries. But when he got close to Sato, Ryuu came out of the ground under Renko's feet and sent a punch to his chin.

As soon as Ryuu came out of the ground, Renko noticed and dodged Ryuu's sneak attack by tilting his head back. He then sent a punch in Ryuu's direction, but Ryuu grabbed the fist that came in his direction.

Ryuu then sent a kick toward Renko's stomach, who blocked it with his knee and then sent a kick toward Ryuu using his other foot.

Ryuu backed away and opened a space between himself and Renko as soon as he saw Renko's foot swinging towards him.

"Renku, we need to retreat quickly, there are five people heading here and they will arrive in 5 minutes. carry Sato with you." At this moment Kato shouted to warn Renko about the five ninjas coming to their place.

When Renko heard Kato's words, he went straight to pick up Sato, but Ryuu got in his way, "Do you think I'll let you back off?"

"Fire Release: Fireball Jutsu"

Ryuu shoots a fireball from his mouth at Renko without the hand seals. A fireball hit Renko and burned him.

But after the body was burned, it disintegrated and turned into a group of rocks and scattered on the ground.

At this moment Sato got up from the ground and quickly wrapped his arm around Ryuu's neck from behind.

Ryuu didn't expect Sato to be able to get back on his feet after the injury he sustained, so he didn't pay attention to him because he didn't identify him as a threat.

'Something's wrong, he shouldn't be conscious I've checked he's unconscious, and even if he's conscious he shouldn't be able to move with this serious injury' thought Ryuu.

Then Ryuu noticed that Kato was lying on the ground and then realized that the person holding him was being controlled by Kato.

'Controlling an injured body is very difficult and painful,' thought Kato, who is currently controlling Sato's body.

"You can't escape now, you will surely die," Sato (Kato) said while all the Explosive Tag on his jacket were activated

All three of them have an Explosive Tags under their clothes, so if they are caught they can use it to commit suicide while killing enemies with them, so that Danzo is not revealed to have planned to kidnap Kushina.

Ryuu was shocked that they were trying to kill him with Sato, Ryuu hit Sato with his elbow because he wanted to break free before activating the Explosive Tags.

"Ha-ha-ha-ha, did you really think we'd save Sato?" Renko laughed out loud after seeing the shocked expression on Ryuu's face.

Upon hearing Renko's words, Ryuu was furious but focused on trying to escape.

Because of the pain, Sato (Kato) let go of Ryuu, but smiled and said, "It's too late to escape, you're dead."

In moments, the blast covered a radius of 10 meters, and only Sato and Ryuu were within the blast range.

Kushina, who was hiding and watching the fight, upon seeing that Ryuu was within the blast range, tears started to flow from her eyes and when she wanted to go to the blast site to check if Ryuu was still alive, Renku appeared in front of her.

"Welcome home, little girl," Renko said to Kushina in a sneered tone as he smiled.

"Renko, look over there. What is this thing?" Kato said in fear, looking at the smoke and dust rising from the scene of the explosion.

"What's wrong with you, why are you afraid?" Renko said as he looked at Kato and then looked at the epicenter of the explosion. As soon as he looked into the center of the explosion, he saw within the smoke and dust the silhouette of a giant skeleton with horns on its head and eye sockets glowing.

Moments before the explosion occurred, Ryuu used his Mangekyu Sharingan to activate the Susanoo to protect him from the explosion.

When he activated the Susanoo, a giant chest cage surrounded himself, protecting him from the explosion, and when the explosion ended, Ryuu did not get a scratch.

'Susanoo's defense is really strong,' Ryuu thought. But he felt pain and headaches when using Susanoo. But he did not care about that and added more chakras to the Susanoo, which made it develop into a complete skeleton with a silver color.

Ryuu then moved very quickly towards Renko who was near Kushina.

While Kato and Renko were shocked by the appearance of the giant skeleton inside the explosion. The skeleton comes out of the explosion area and reveals its full form and then moves quickly towards Renku and then reaches out to grab it, Renko did not expect the skeleton to move so quickly, so the hand of the skeleton grabbed it.

"Damn you, get me down, monster!" Renko said and then noticed that Ryuu inside the skeleton marveled and asked, "You, how do you survive? And what is that skeleton?"

"I have no interest in explaining anything to you, so you can die," Ryuu said as the skeleton's hand squeezed Renko, crushing him into a flesh-and-blood batter and throwing it away.
