Chapter 137 : Fighting against the Akatsuki!

On the other side of the battlefield, Kaminari was confronted by Fujin, Mieko and Hoka. Fujin flickered in front of him while making some hand signs.

'Wind Release : Air Bullet jutsu'

Fujin shot a dozen air bullets at him. Lightning sparks appeared on Kaminari's body. His speed increased a lot and he dodged all air bullets easily.

Mieko and Hoka quickly attacked with shurikens, but Kaminari dodged them as well with ease. Fujin analyzed, 'There is no lightning armor on him, just sparks. Is this a toned-down version of Raikage's technique?'

After dodging, Kaminari moved towards the trio. His speed was incredibly fast. Fujin's eyes couldn't follow him. He instantly blew a Great Breakthrough jutsu in front of him. It didn't matter if he couldn't see his opponent's exact location. He would just attack the whole area.

Kaminari saw the incoming attack and quickly moved out of range. He tried attacking from a different direction, but Fujin attacked again with the wide-range Great Breakthrough jutsu. Kaminari tried attacking from different directions, but Fujin just kept attacking with the Great Breakthrough jutsu.

Kaminari was annoyed, 'This brat keeps trying to keep me at a distance. Does he think that he has infinite chakra? And that Uchiha girl is staring at me as well. If I try to break through his jutsu head-on, she will fire a fireball into this wind jutsu.'

Kaminari made a few hand signs.

'Lightning Release : False Darkness'

Multiple spears of Lightning formed and moved towards Fujin's group.

Fujin sensed Kaminari building his chakra and made a few hand signs. Seeing the Lightning jutsu, Fujin launched his jutsu.

'Wind Release : Infinite Breakthrough jutsu'

Both jutsus clashed. Fujin observed carefully. He thought, 'Isn't this the same jutsu that Kakuzu used later? Did Kakuzu take his heart?'

Fujin's jutsu broke through the lightning spears and moved towards Kaminari. However, Kaminari had already launched another jutsu.

'Fire Release : Blast Wave Wild Dance'

Kaminari expelled a large stream of Fire which moved in a spiral manner. It clashed with Fujin's jutsu. Kaminari smirked as he watched, 'My False Darkness was stronger than his jutsu. However, the wind release has too much of an advantage against Lightning. But, False Darkness reduced the momentum of his jutsu. And now, my Blase wave will be assisted by his jutsu!'

As Kaminari had calculated, his Blaze Wave entered the Infinite Breakthrough jutsu and spread throughout it. Fujin thought, 'Damn, he is good!'

Hoka moved forward and slammed his hands on the ground.

'Earth Release : Earth Wall jutsu'

A huge wall appeared between them and the flames. He made another hand sign and slammed his hands on the ground again.

'Earth Release : Earth Dome jutsu'

A dome was formed that covered all three of them.

The fire covered a large area. It flowed over the wall and heated the outside of the dome. Trees were set on fire for hundreds of meters. The jutsu even reached Renjiro and Kakuzu's location. Both immediately escaped into the ground. Renjiro's Sloth summon had already been injured by Kakuzu and it had returned back.

After a minute, the fire died down. Renjiro and Kakuzu had begun fighting underground.

Kaminari quickly moved across the battlefield. He stood on top of the earth wall and noticed the dome below. Fujin noticed his chakra and made a few hand signs.

Lightning sparks began appearing on Kaminari's body. He jumped down at the dome.

'Lightning Release : Lightning Spear jutsu'

A spear made of lightning appeared in his hands. He threw it at the dome.

It hit the dome and pierced through it. However, right when the tip of the lightning spear appeared inside the dome, Fujin used his jutsu.

'Wind Release : Vacuum Bullet jutsu'

The vacuum bullet hit the lightning spear's tip. It pierced through the entire length of the lightning spear and completely dispersed it. Without slowing down, it targeted Kaminari who was falling down towards the dome.

Kaminari's pupils shrank seeing the Vacuum bullet. The jutsu was aimed at his face. He quickly moved his head to the side. The Vacuum bullet left a cut on his right cheek before hitting his right earlobe.

Kaminari shrieked in pain as his right earlobe was pierced and the bottom half of his right ear was blown away. Fujin heard his shriek and followed it up with another Vacuum bullet. The Vacuum bullet pierced through the earth dome and targeted Kaminari. But Kaminari managed to dodge properly this time.

Kaminari thought, 'Fucking hell! Why the fuck does someone so young know the Wind Vacuum technique?'

He was mad in rage.

Not giving him any time, Hoka placed his hands on the earth dome. The outer surface of the dome transformed into spikes and they immediately launched at Kaminari.

Understanding that he was at a disadvantage, he retreated a hundred meters backwards. With the dome gone, Fujin, Mieko and Hoka looked at Kaminari. His face was ugly and full of rage.

Kaminari was very angry. He thought, 'How many bastards does Konoha raise? That wind brat is already one of the top wind users I have seen. And that Hyuga scum can use Earth Release as well as any Jounin level ninja from Iwa! And they don't even look like they're in their teens!'

Kaminari made a hand sign.

'Lightning Release : Lightning Clone jutsu'

Two Lightning clones appeared around him.

They immediately went on assault. All moved around at a rapid speed! Fujin once again attacked them head-on with a Great Breakthrough jutsu. However, all three moved out of the way. Kaminari attacked the trio from the back, while his clones attacked from left and right. They were so fast that they attacked when Fujin was still releasing the jutsu.

Both Hoka and Mieko made hand signs and slammed their hands on the ground with perfect coordination.

'Earth Release : Topsy Turvy jutsu'

The ground in front of the Kaminari and his clones immediately became uneven. Some parts of the ground went up a few inches, while some other parts went down a few inches. The aim of this jutsu was to make the attackers lose their footing and fall down.

Kaminari and his clones noticed them and immediately slowed down. The slowdown was enough for Fujin to turn around and launch another Great Breakthrough jutsu at Kaminari.

Hoka and Mieko also made hand signs.

'Water Release : Water Gun jutsu'

'Fire Release : Flame Bullet jutsu'

They both launched jutsus on the clones.

Kaminari and his clones had to retreat once again.

While Kaminari was retreating, the trio were attacked from the other side. Kakuzu's fire mask had been useless against Renjiro. So he sent it to help out Kaminari.

It released a huge flame at the trio. Hoka made a hand sign and released Water Gun jutsu to intercept it. While Mieko slammed her hands on the ground and raised an earth wall to protect them. They managed to defend perfectly.

Kaminari didn't attack. He had some doubts. He thought, 'Why is their teamwork so good? Even veteran teams might struggle to have such efficient coordination. They have left the attack to that wind user while the other two are perfectly complimenting him.'

Kaminari kept feeling that something was off. And while he was analyzing, it finally hit him, 'Wait a minute. Why is that Wind user fighting without considering his chakra wastage at all? His chakra has fallen very low now. In just a few more jutsus, he will be dry!'

Kaminari analyzed, but couldn't figure out the reason why they were acting that way.

Kakuzu and Renjiro were still stuck in a deadlock. Kakuzu had the absolute advantage over Renjiro, but he couldn't deal any injuries to him.

Kakuzu analyzed, 'He is good. If it weren't for those three kids, he might have been able to escape successfully from me. That said, what is that useless Kaminari doing? I even sent my Fire Mask to help him. And he still can't kill 3 kids?'

The fighting continued for a few minutes. Team Renjiro was extremely exhausted. Fujin had one knee on the ground. Mieko and Hoka were tired as well. They had spent a huge amount of chakra on ninjutsu.

Renjiro was also exhausted. Fighting against an S rank ninja and the three masks took its toll on him.

Kaminari observed them and smirked, 'Finally they ran out of chakra. Now let me see why they fought so recklessly.'

Kakuzu also observed very carefully. During the last few minutes, he had seen endless tactics and tricks from Renjiro. He didn't want to get careless.

Fujin looked over at Renjiro. Renjiro was looking at him as well. They both nodded their heads as soon as their eyes met. Hoka and Mieko noticed it. Immediately, all four flickered in different directions!

Kakuzu and Kaminari immediately followed Renjiro and Fujin respectively. While Kaminari's clones followed Hoka and Mieko.

If there was one thing that Team Renjiro prided upon, it was their skill with the Body Flicker jutsu. Even in an exhausted state, they all managed to flicker multiple times.

Unfortunately, their opponents were very strong. All of them were chased down successfully!

A/N : What will happen to Team Renjiro? What will happen to Fujin? Will they manage to escape or be caught? If caught, will Fujin be killed? Or will he have other paths?

Find out in the next chapter.
