Chapter 590: Immortal Duo vs. Maintenance Force
After a painful roar, Kakuzu ignored the Mōryō beside him.
He rushed towards Hozuki Shingetsu with red eyes like a cannonball.
Looking at his teammates who disappeared in an instant, Mōryō put down his raised arms helplessly.
"Really? I told you to try not to cause trouble, but you were the one who wanted to run away, and now you are the one who rushed forward without thinking."
"Are all children nowadays so emotionally unstable?"
He complained about Kakuzu's impulsiveness, but Mōryō did not intend to abandon his teammates and run away.
He squatted down and pressed his hands to the ground.
The earth shook violently.
Countless undead puppets broke out of the ground one by one.
On the other side, he ignored Hozuki Shingetsu who had already fought with Kakuzu.
Hoshigaki Kisame pulled Hiramekarei from his back and immediately gave orders to everyone.
"Pain-san, go help Shingetsu to deal with Kakuzu. Izaburo, take the others to disperse the encirclement and prevent these two from escaping."
"As for this demon, let me deal with it!"
After arranging the tasks, Kisame rushed out quickly.
At the same time, he split Hiramekarei in his hand into two, holding one in each hand, wielding two energy swords, and chopped all the undead puppets that had just crawled out of the ground in front of him.
After seeing that the people around him had all dispersed, Hoshigaki Kisame loosened the handle of the sword.
The two blades were instantly inserted into the ground, and then he put his hands together and began to form seals quickly.
"Water Style: Great Waterfall Jutsu!"
The spiral water flow instantly spit out from Hoshigaki Kisame's mouth.
In the blink of an eye, it turned into a raging torrent, rushing towards the army of undead puppets in front of him.
The turbulent water flow engulfed all the undead puppets, including those puppets whose half bodies had not yet crawled out of the ground. They were all directly pulled out by the strong water flow and rushed away in a rotation.
Hoshigaki Kisame grabbed Hiramekarei beside him with his backhand, jumped high, and jumped directly onto the water surface.
Riding on the surging waves, he slashed at Mōryō who also jumped onto the water surface.
"Ding~"
A large piece of blue-gray stone quickly condensed on Mōryō's arm, and it actually blocked the sharp chakra blade of Hoshigaki Kisame.
However, even so, the huge force from top to bottom still blasted Mōryō directly into the water.
"Rock Fist Jutsu? The intelligence didn't say that this demon from a thousand years ago also mastered ninjutsu?"
Hoshigaki Kisame looked at Mōryō in the water with a slightly solemn expression.
Being able to block his blade with the 'Rock Fist Jutsu', it is obvious that the opponent has mastered the Earth Style Jutsu.
The figure of Mōryō emerged from the water again, looked at the undead puppets that had been swept away by the 'Great Waterfall Jutsu', and shrugged helplessly.
"You Kirigakure Ninjas are really unreasonable, but people always have to make progress, right? I am not an old-fashioned person who never changes~"
Seeing this demon who is not even a 'human' saying these great truths, Hoshigaki Kisame, who was originally a little relaxed, is now more vigilant.
A demon driven only by evil instincts and a strong man with human thinking, it is obvious that the latter will be more difficult to deal with.
Slowly putting the two blades back into one, Hoshigaki Kisame once again made seals with his hands.
More than a dozen water clones emerged from the water below his feet, each waving a big sword and rushing towards Mōryō.
Hoshigaki Kisame himself stood in place with his hands clasped together.
He wants to use this posture to speed up the process of entering Sage Mode.
However, when Hoshigaki Kisame just started to gather natural energy and fuse the chakra to enter the sage mode, the expression of Mōryō, who was originally frivolous in the distance, became solemn.
"Another means of controlling natural energy, you Kirigakure Ninjas are really troublesome!"
As an old demon from a thousand years ago, who "survived" to the present in an era when there were no ninjutsu, Mōryō certainly knew nothing about natural energy.
What's more, the last time the four of them attacked the Kirigakure Village, the young Mizukage's Sage Mode left a very deep impression on him.
Although Mōryō, who was a soul possessing the body, was not afraid of death, he did not want to fall into the hands of a "junior" for no reason.
Mōryō, who began to take it seriously, immediately stretched out his arms, and then countless sharp wooden spikes flew out from his sleeves in an instant, shooting straight at Hoshigaki Kisame who was gathering natural energy in the distance.
Mōryō, who is using the body of White Zetsu, naturally also mastered the Wood Style.
Although it is not too powerful, for his soul body that can squeeze the energy of the body at will, the power of Wood Release is far beyond the level that ordinary White Zetsu can achieve.
However, facing the wooden thorns shot at him, Hoshigaki Kisame did not dodge at all.
Among the dozen water clones separated earlier, two immediately jumped out, waving Hiramekarei to block all the attacks.
Although these two water clones were all pierced and exploded in the end, they once again bought Hoshigaki Kisame a few more seconds.
"Are water clones with one-tenth of their strength this strong? Trouble!"
Although he kept complaining, Mōryō continued to perform ninjutsu, intending to break through the interception of these water clones.
However, Hoshigaki Kisame, who was gathering natural energy, vaguely realized that Mōryō did not seem to be as urgent as he showed.
It was as if he was waiting for something?
'Is he waiting for his teammates to win and come to support? '
'The combination of Pain-san and Shingetsu is not that easy to deal with, and I only need half a minute to condense enough chakra to activate sage mode. '
Thinking of this, Hoshigaki Kisame grinned and dodged the attack of the demon, and once again hid behind the remaining water bodies.
'Let's see if you are really fearless! '
On the other side.
Previously, because of the loss of 20 million in cash, he impulsively went forward and had a close fight with Hozuki Shingetsu.
Kakuzu immediately discovered that Hozuki Shingetsu was a member of the Hozuki clan who possessed the "Hydrification Jutsu". He immediately calmed down and decisively gave up the physical combat that was not very effective and switched to ninjutsu attack.
As a result, who would have thought that this unknown person named "Pain" who suddenly appeared was not inferior to himself in the attainments of the Five Elements Style Jutsu.
After several fights, he actually fell into the disadvantage of the two people's attack.
'Why does a guy with a worthless head have such strength! ! '
Kakuzu, who had originally focused most of his attention on Hozuki Shingetsu, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, had to gradually begin to engage in a ninjutsu duel with Nagato.
"Fire Style: Intelligent Hard Work!"
"Water Style: Water Formation Pillar!"
After another ninjutsu duel, Kakuzu had thought that he could use the rising white mist to quickly separate his Earth Grudge Clone to avoid being further besieged.
But suddenly, a loud shout came into his ears.
"Pain! Get out of the way!"
"Multiplying Explosive Tags!"
