No Time To Think

"Alright, alright, alright. When the time comes, I'll definitely let you guys see it as if it's real." When Ryoha had nothing to do, he would often use his genjutsu as a movie player and bring the girls inside it to watch "real" movies.

When he was bored, he would even turn some of the movies he had seen on Earth into a genjutsu space, bringing the girls to see them. It was even more shocking and exciting. For example, Star Wars, Aces Go Places, and Jackie Chan's Rob-B-Hood were very exciting and beautiful. Of course, it was also very funny.

"Shikamaru, you really decided to do this?" In front of Konoha's gate, a white-haired middle-aged man spoke to one of the three people in front of him.

"Yes, Hokage-sama, I believe my plan will definitely succeed." These three people were Shikamaru, Choji, and Ino. As for the white-haired middle-aged man, he was naturally Jiraya who came back from Mount Myoboku. At this time, Shikamaru and the other two had already buried Asuma. Obviously, they were going to find Hidan and Kakuzu for revenge.

"Kakashi, they will be in your hands." Jiraya was very clear about how important Shikamaru's wisdom was. Perhaps in a one-on-one battle, Shikamaru's strength couldn't keep up with his wisdom and couldn't bring out the greatest effect. But if it was a war, it would definitely be a great help. It could even be comparable to a Kage-level expert in a war.

In the Third War, Konoha was able to outnumber its enemies. In addition to being powerful, Minato and the others were commanded by Shikamaru's father, Nara Shikaku. Jiraiya absolutely could not allow anything to happen to Shikamaru. Therefore, he solemnly reminded Kakashi, who also understood the meaning of his words.

"Don't worry, Jiraya-san." Kakashi nodded and then led the new generation of Ino-Shika-Cho to find Kakuzu and Hidan.

"Kakashi, hold on for a while. Naruto's Sage Mode is even more perfect and powerful than mine. Losing the Kyubi might not be a bad thing for him. In Mount Myoboku, his strength has improved really fast. Maybe in the future, even if he can't surpass Minato, his achievements will definitely not be low." Jiraya said.

Although this disciple was not the most talented, nor was he the most outstanding and powerful among the disciples he had taught, Naruto was definitely the most satisfying.

Leaving Jiraya who was sighing, Shikamaru and the others quickly arrived at the place that Kakuzu and Hidan had mentioned before, and began to prepare for an ambush. They quickly found the traces of Kakuzu and the others through Ino's secret technique.

After Kakuzu and Hidan arrived at their destination, they immediately used the Explosive tags to cover up their tracks and stabbed their shadows using Asuma's chakra blade.

"Damn it, it's this troublesome technique again. Kakuzu, are we too unlucky to encounter such a thing when we just came out?" Seeing that he was bound by the Shadow Imitation technique, Hidan was dejected.

"You'd better shut up." Kakuzu was also shocked by the wisdom of Shikamaru in his heart. The series of attacks just now was actually prepared to cover up the movement of the chakra blade. He did not expect that from the beginning, Shikamaru was scheming against him and Hidan. But it was obvious that the young shadow user was much smarter than Hidan.

"You were right last time. I did pick the wrong target, but I won't make the same mistake again." When he thought about how Hidan's head had been cut off - as long as Kakuzu was there, no matter what Hidan turned into, he could sew it back up. Therefore, this time, Shikamaru would never pick the wrong target again.

"Kakuzu, quickly think of a way." Hidan picked up the sickle and walked towards Kakuzu. His body was out of control, but his mouth could still move.

"Swoosh!"

In the nick of time, just as the scythe was about to cut Kakuzu's head, the ground under Kakuzu's feet immediately broke apart. A large hand pulled out the chakra blade from the shadow and threw it to the side. At the same time, Kakuzu was very agile. It was clear that his combat experience and consciousness were very rich and he dodged Hidan's scythe.

"Crazy, my body is out of control. Kakuzu, quickly dodge my attacks!" Whether it was the original work or now, the relationship between Hidan and Kakuzu was still very good. But it was slightly better in this current timeline. From their conversation in battle, it could be seen that the two sides still attached great importance to each other.

"Oh no!" Kakuzu retreated while dodging Hidan's attack. However, his back was soon blocked by a towering giant tree.

"Choji!" Shikamaru shouted. Choji, who had been waiting on the tree for a long time, immediately used the Human Bullet Tank to smash Kakuzu's body from top to bottom. The ground near Kakuzu was smashed into a huge pit, but it did not cause any damage to Kakuzu. Choji, who had finished using his jutsu, was kicked out by Kakuzu and landed beside Shikamaru.

"It seems that my analysis was correct. It should be a body hardening technique." Shikamaru analyzed.

"Your analysis is correct, but my ability has always been unknown to you. Even if you analyze and calculate while fighting, you can't do everything as you think. This is not a world where wisdom determines everything, but the size of a fist determines everything. Your wisdom may be able to play a certain role in the face of Hidan and me."

"But if you face someone stronger than us who can take your life in an instant, then even if you have the wisdom of heaven and earth, it is useless."

Kakuzu walked out of the smoke and dust. He was unscathed. Not only was he rich in combat experience, but he was also very calm after living for so many years.

"So what? At least the two of you can't kill me in an instant." Shikamaru thought of Ryoha. Not to mention anything else, just the Hiraishin no Jutsu alone was already troublesome. Even if Shikamaru used his head until it exploded, he had no way to deal with it. He could only wait for Ryoha to come and take his life, if he and Ryoha were enemies.

"I can't do it, but I remember that you Konoha seem to have become enemies with a certain person, and there seems to be a lot of hatred between you and him. He can kill you in an instant. When you face him, you might not even have time to think with your head."

Kakuzu spoke with a bit of irony. In the past, he was convicted by the people in the village because of the failure of his mission to assassinate the first Hokage, so he did not have ill feelings towards the people of Konoha, but he definitely did not have a good impression of them. The enemy of Konoha that Kakuzu talked about was Ryoha, and Shikamaru also understood who Kakuzu was talking about.
