Listen to advice: I, Sasuke, why should I defect to Konoha?

In the Land of Fire, in the night before dawn.

"Ah, hey, Kakuzu, could you please put away that greedy face? It's just 30 million ryo. It's really annoying to keep counting like this!" Looking at his partner who was counting money beside him, Hidan couldn't help but complain helplessly.

I don't know what's going on with the leader? But everything is calm here...

Could it be that their actions did not attract Konoha's elites? ?

"Shut up, Hidan. If you disturb me counting money again, I'll kill you..." Kakuzu paused and said coldly with a cold look in his eyes.

Compared to the so-called mission, money can make him feel the value of his existence!

This is his way of ninja.

"You guy..." Feiduan was worried about not being able to find anything to pass the time, so he subconsciously retorted and was about to start a quarrel.

But just as he finished his words, his expression suddenly changed and he fled away!

At the same time, the Kakuzu who was counting money opposite him made a similar move. He put away the cash box smoothly and retreated quickly, staring at the ground at the same time.

Under the dim light, two black lines quickly grabbed the two people like long snakes...

"Tsk, failed!" Behind the jungle, Shikamaru dispersed his hand seals and pouted unhappily.

Now that he has been discovered by the other party, the sneak attack strategy has failed! Continuing to hold on is just a waste of chakra.

"There's nothing we can do about it. Daybreak is almost here!" Ino sighed helplessly and subconsciously looked at the sky which was about to break dawn.

If it was late at night, Shikamaru's sneak attack would definitely be very effective. Unfortunately, there is no if...

"In that case, we have no choice but to fight head-on. Now let's assign our opponents." Inuzuka Kiba sniffed again to confirm the other party's identity, then he stared at the two people opposite with a burning gaze.

"Teacher Asuma, what should we do now?" Hinata turned her head to ask, her pair of white eyes showing a ferocious look.

"I see. No wonder we were discovered and attacked. Is that the Byakugan of the Hyuga family..." Before Asuma could say anything, Kakuzu on the opposite side spoke in a cold voice.

Then, without waiting for everyone's reaction, the pair of deep green pupils stared at Hinata's flawless forehead that was inadvertently exposed, "There are no traces of the curse seal of the Hyuga branch family. Is it someone from the main family? You are really lucky. Those eyes can be exchanged for gold underground and sold for a good price!"

However, under his seemingly angry expression, he sighed helplessly in his heart! They were just a few small fry. It seemed that they did not attract the real Konoha elites.

"Huh? Kakuzu, it's already this time and you're still thinking about the bounty?" Hidan shouted unhappily, then turned his gaze to stare at Shikamaru and the others.

“Hehehe, last time in the Demon Desert, you guys forced me to let Kakuzu kill my stand. Today is the time to end it all!!” At this point, Feiduan grinned, “I want to sacrifice all of you to the evil god…”

"Stop bragging here, we were able to defeat you last time, and we can do the same today!" Inuzuka Kiba shouted angrily, not willing to be outdone, while Shikamaru Shino next to him paused at the same time.

Sacrificing to evil gods? Just a simple fanatical pagan?

"Everyone, act according to Shikamaru's backup plan. Be sure to kill them here." Asuma didn't say much, he just gave orders while holding Feiyan.

We must strike decisively before daybreak when Shikamaru's shadow technique gives him the advantage of terrain!

Whoosh...

Almost at the moment Asuma opened his mouth, Shikamaru, Choji, and Ino rushed towards Hidan at the same time.

"Haha, these three little brats? Just what I want..." Upon seeing this, Feiduan swung his sickle and went straight towards them.

"Ninjutsu: Shadow Tentacles..." Shikamaru immediately formed seals with both hands, and several shadow tentacles besieged Hidan from all directions.

As long as he is caught by a shadow, he can use the shadow to restrain the other party!

"Swish, swish, swish..." Next to him, Choji threw out kunai and shuriken continuously to interfere with Hidan, buying time for Shikamaru's shadow.

At the moment when Shikamaru and Choji made their move, Ino formed seals with both hands and waited for an opportunity to strike. Her mind-controlling secret technique didn't work on that monster last time, but it might not work on this guy!

"Very well, now is the time..."

Seeing that Hidan was being entangled by Shikamaru and the other two, Asuma took the initiative to lead the charge towards Kakuzu. "Shikamaru said that guy can separate into four masked monsters. I will deal with the main body and one of them, and the others will be left to you three."

"Yes." Ya, Shino, and Hinata immediately nodded and followed.

As for Kakuzu's information, those who participated in the Chunin Exam knew more than Asuma...

"Have you discovered? It's indeed the reason for the last time in the Demon Desert." Kakuzu pondered and was not surprised. He had expected this!

'Earthly Grudge Mode...' Without hesitation, Kakuzu tore off his clothes and exploded.

The next moment, I saw masked monsters with water and earth attributes protruding from behind him, while masks with fire and wind attributes were located on his shoulders, forming the strongest combat mode.

"Fire Escape·Head Hard Work..."

"Wind Style: Suppressing Harm..."

I saw Angle quickly forming seals, and the masked monster with dual attributes of fire and wind opened its mouth and exploded in an instant.

In an instant, the violent fire flow was swept by the hurricane and formed a super fire escape in the blink of an eye, rushing towards Asuma and the other four like a sea of ​​fire...

"Don't even think about succeeding." Seeing the fierce fire, Asuma shouted and blocked Hinata and the other two to complete the seal, 'Wind Style: Great Breakthrough...'

In the blink of an eye, a gust of wind came out of Asma's mouth. The violent wind pressure blew away the fire in front of him and forcibly opened a gap in the sea of ​​fire.

"Wolf Fang..."

"Bagua·Kongzhang..."

"Secret Technique·Insect Jade..."

Hinata and the other two immediately took the opportunity to launch an attack.

"He's quite capable! I seem to have seen that guy on the bounty list..." Kakuzu looked at Asuma deeply, and masked monsters with water and earth attributes broke out from his body behind him.

"Earth Escape: Earth Flow Wall..." The earth-attributed masked monster opened its mouth and spit out a stream of mud that fell to the ground and quickly rose up to form an earth wall.

At the same moment, "Water Style: Water Curtain Tent..."

The water-attributed masked monster aimed at the wolf fang that was coming to strangle it, and fired a water cannon straight at it...

Suddenly, water splashed and mist flew, and Ya's combination skills were offset.

"Damn, is this guy so difficult to deal with?" Ya held Akamaru and did a backflip on the ground, staring at the opposite side and shouted unhappily.

"Although it's difficult, we must not retreat. Let's go..." Asuma shouted in a deep voice, and with a tap of his foot, he swung Flying Swallow to break through the earth wall and rush towards Kakuzu's body.

Hinata and Shino looked at each other, and without hesitation pounced on the water and earth masked monsters respectively!

"One cough, Akamaru. Don't let them underestimate you..." Seeing this, Ya was not willing to be outdone, and shouted and launched an attack again.

In an instant, the battle between the two sides was in full swing...

At the same time, four figures in the woods not far away stared at the battle scene with strange expressions!

"Did Choji, Kiba and the others participate in the battle at that time?" The middle-aged man with a pineapple haircut stroked his beard, his eyes filled with doubt and surprise.
