People are in Konoha, the start level is full

(To make up for the day when the previous update was interrupted)

Kurama Yan and Orochimaru stood in the center of the open space, turning around and looking in the direction they came from.They didn't wait long before they saw a tall ninja slowly walking out of the depths of the jungle.

He was wearing black attire, a mask on his face, his hair was wrapped in a gray hood, and the mark of Takigakure Village was scratched on his forehead protector. He was exuding obscure and vigorous chakra fluctuations.

"What a strong sense of oppression. This guy's strength should not be underestimated." Orochimaru looked at the visitor with a solemn expression and made a defensive posture.

The person who came was clearly Kakuzu. His eyes stayed on Orochimaru and Kuramahiko for a moment respectively before he slowly spoke and said in a low voice: "The heads of both of you are worthless. Why don't you exchange them in the underground gold exchange?" Hand over the bounty you got, and I can let you live."

"Oh? Do you think you can kill us?" Orochimaru stared at him sharply and asked calmly.

"On your Kumogakure side, the only one worthy of my fear, Kakuzu, is the Raikage. The rest, even the jinchūriki, I, Kakuzu, don't look down upon, let alone unknown people like you." Kakuzu replied. .

"Why do you think we are Kumogakure..." Orochimaru said half a sentence in surprise and reacted instantly.

"I see, our image in his eyes is... that of Kumogakure?" He glanced slightly at Kurama Yan, who was beside him as if nothing had happened, and he understood clearly.

"What? You have such obvious appearance features and you still have to pretend to be stupid?"

Kakuzu is a little impatient. The two people in front of him are probably thinking him a fool. Isn't it obvious that these two people are Kumogakure's people?

As for the transformation technique, with his Kakuzu's eyesight, the transformation technique could only deceive him for a moment. After a while, he would be able to see the clues.

He observed these two people in the hall of the money exchange for a long time, and then followed them for more than ten minutes. He was absolutely sure that these two people did not use transformation techniques.

"Mr. Kakuzu."

At this time, Kurama Yan, who had been standing silently on the side, also said lightly: "Aren't you surprised? The two of us are obviously ninjas from the Kingdom of Thunder, why do we keep heading towards the Leaf Village? "

"Huh?" Kakuzu frowned, immediately realizing the problem. After pondering for a moment, he tried to ask: "Because you are rebels?"

Kurama Yan was amused by his honest brain circuit. He shook his head with a smile and said: "Mr. Kakuzu, no matter what, you are a master who can fight against the five hidden village shadows. Before you die, I think I should still give you the necessary respect."

"At least I can't let you die in an unknown way."

After that, he took off his hood and adjusted the details of their appearance in Kakuzu's eyes to their true state.

Seeing this, Orochimaru raised the corners of his mouth and followed his lead in taking off his hood, revealing the forehead protector.

"what?"

Kakuzu was about to explode when he heard Kuramahiko's arrogant words, but all he felt was a blur in front of his eyes. The skin of the two dark men standing opposite, one tall and one short, suddenly turned white.

It's just that one has a normal fair skin color and the other has a pathological white color like albinism.

"Konoha Ninja?"

He looked at the mark on Orochimaru's forehead guard and muttered to himself in surprise. He was secretly wondering if the change in skin color and face was some newly developed secret technique, but he found that Orochimaru's face was somewhat familiar.

"Are you... the disciple of the Sandaime Hokage, Orochimaru?" Kakuzu tried to ask.

"I guessed it right this time, but there's no prize." Orochimaru looked at him with a smile.

"No prize? Humph, it doesn't matter." Kakuzu lowered his head slightly, with a strange expression under his mask.

"Because this time, I received double the reward!"

His eyes widened, and his green pupils shone with excitement. After roaring, he jumped forward, holding a kunai in his hand and stabbed Orochimaru.

"I was looked down upon..."

When Orochimaru heard this, his heart filled with anger, but the smile on his face remained unchanged. A kunai suddenly appeared in his hand, blocking Kakuzu's attack.

"What a strong hand!"

Under the touch, Orochimaru's expression changed, and he felt that he could not withstand the opponent's strength with one hand.

Just as he was about to avoid it, he saw Kakuzu's cheeks bulging slightly.

"Wind Escape. Pressure"

"What? Doesn't he need seals to use ninjutsu?"

Horrified, Orochimaru tilted his head back decisively, his whole body folded in a strange posture from the waist, narrowly avoiding the oncoming hurricane.

At the same time, he took the opportunity to bite his fingers, and after forming several seals on his hands, he used the psychic technique while lowering his waist and placing his hands on the ground.

Marks of necromancy appeared on the ground.

"bang"

A burst of smoke dissipated, and Kakuzu suddenly found that he was unsteady on his feet, as if the ground was shaking, but he saw a huge bloody mouth biting towards him, covering his entire field of vision.

"Is it a psychic technique? It looks like a snake, and it actually summoned this giant psychic beast." Kakuzu understood in his heart, and quickly formed seals with his hands.

"Earth Escape. Hardening Technique"

For some commonly used ninjutsu, he can avoid the process of forming seals through the special structure of [Earth Resentment Yu], but [Hardening Technique] is not one of them.

As soon as the ninjutsu was performed, Kakuzu was caught in the mouth of the giant snake. Huge squeezing force came from all directions. For an ordinary person, just this one blow would shatter all the bones and internal organs in the chest and abdomen.

However, the hardening technique was used on both angles, so there was no problem.

The giant snake saw that the hard object in its mouth could not bite, so it swallowed all the horns into its belly.

"Hmph, this guy has a good tone, but his skills are mediocre."

Seeing that the dust had settled, Orochimaru shook his head and smiled at Kurama Hiko: "Hiko-kun, now the capture is complete."

Kurama Yan looked at the giant snake that swallowed Kakuzu, adjusted his glasses, and reminded: "Teacher Orochimaru, that Kakuzu will not be defeated so easily."

Orochimaru may not know, but he saw the sequence of seals before Kakudu was swallowed by the giant snake, and he sensitively discovered that he had learned the [Earth Release and Hardening Technique].

Kurama Yan, who understands this ninjutsu, naturally does not think that Kakuzu will be ended so easily.

Orochimaru opened his mouth and was about to speak. At this moment, the giant snake he summoned let out a whine.

"what?"

Orochimaru turned his head to look, and saw a large black hole suddenly opened in the giant snake's belly, and a scorching ball of fire burst out of the giant snake's body and flew away.

Even the smell of burning barbecue wafted in the air.

Immediately, from the charred hole in the snake's belly, the horns soaked in mucus came out.

At his age, he no longer cares about things like slime.

"You can still escape under such circumstances. Is this the immortality Kuramahiko said?" Orochimaru stared at Kakuzu warily, thinking in his mind.

Since Kuramayan didn't tell him much, he still knew little about Kakuzu's intelligence, and he didn't know anything about the manifestation of the so-called immortality.
