"Wind Release: Pressure Damage!"
"Fire Release: Intelligent Hard Work!"
Earth Grudge Fear's Wind Attribute masked monster released a high-pressure wind sphere from its mouth, while on the other side, Earth Grudge Fear's Fire Attribute masked monster spat out a small fireball compressed from highly condensed Fire Release chakra.
As soon as these two high-intensity jutsu were released, they coalesced instantly into a terrifying force. Muta, facing Wind Release: Pressure Damage head-on, was the first to feel fear. The next moment, the tumbling storm obscured his form directly.
At the same time, Yusuke, beside him took the opportunity to escape. Looking back, she witnessed this scene and couldn't help but cry out loudly. "Muta!"
Nyanko, who was attacking Kakuzu, couldn't help but shift his attention to check after hearing the shout. The next moment, an Earth Release jutsu pressed down on him directly.
Accompanied by earth-shaking tremors, Nyanko's mountain-like body was thrown backward.
Yusuke's face was full of despair. Before she could react, a heavy gasp came from beside her, interrupting her thoughts.
"Huff! Huff! I... I'm fine..." Muta appeared beside Yusuke, gasping for breath. He'd used Insect Clone at the last moment. Although he escaped, he was still affected.
Seeing Muta's figure, despite his serious injuries, Yusuke felt a trace of relief. However, even Sawada's summoning beast had been knocked away. How could the two of them deal with this monster with five hearts?
"Hehe." Kakuzu slowly walked over, looking at the disheveled Yusuke and Muta. "Brats, hand over the Four-Tails Jinchūriki, and perhaps I can make your deaths easier."
Kakuzu's eerie green eyes stared at the two. His words were utterly emotionless. If not for the leader insisting on eliminating everyone, he really would be too lazy to take action. After all, these two weren't on the bounty list. Killing them was a waste of effort.
Yusuke didn't respond. She swung her blade directly at Kakuzu, the blade covered in green chakra. "Muta, you go first. Leave this to me and Nyanko!"
Muta's face was grim. Though he didn't want to, this was the best plan. After all, he was already injured. If he continued to stay, he would become everyone's burden.
"I understand, Yusuke. Be careful." After speaking, Muta jumped to the other side directly. He had to leave, quickly bring the Four-Tails back to the village, to buy time and wait for reinforcements.
Even the monster on Sawada-sama's side isn't simple. That guy's chakra is even more terrifying than this five-hearted monster.
"What a waste of time!" Kakuzu was very impatient. Earth Grudge Fear's Wind Attribute masked monster moved, planning to pursue Muta.
A figure appeared directly before the masked monster. A massive green slash cut off half of Earth Grudge Fear's mask directly.
"This road is blocked!" Yusuke's expression was very calm. She said flatly, looking toward Kakuzu's direction.
"Oh?" Kakuzu tilted his head. This woman before him had caught his interest. This kind of chakra blade technique wasn't something a weakling could execute.
"Futile resistance." As soon as Kakuzu's words fell, two Earth Grudge Fears walked straight toward Yusuke.
Yusuke gripped her blade tightly with both hands, her face full of determination. I can't retreat a single step, even if it means death!
"You? How arrogant." A low, rich voice rang out. The sky was shrouded in shadow. Kakuzu looked up to find Nyanko, who had just been knocked away by his Earth Release, rapidly diving toward him. Except that his size was even larger than before.
"Demon Binding: Command!" Kakuzu's expression instantly stiffened. For a moment, he couldn't move at all. Even the two Earth Grudge Fears heading toward Yusuke lost control and stopped.
"Really, if you kill them, how is this old man supposed to explain to Sawada!" Nyanko lowered his head. His massive, beast-like eyes stared straight at Kakuzu, who was as small as an ant.
Cold sweat involuntarily streamed down Kakuzu's cheeks at this moment. What happened? I didn't see any movement. Why can't I move?
Nyanko sneered. He could completely hear the thoughts of this ant before him. "Although I'm interested in your jutsu, to avoid trouble, I'd better kill you first!"
The next moment, the bound Kakuzu felt as if his entire body was being crushed by a massive mountain.
"No!" No matter how he struggled, Kakuzu could only utter one word. The next moment, his entire body exploded.
Nyanko, having activated his domain, looked at the blood stains on the transparent barrier before him with a disgusted expression.
"Nyanko!" Yusuke's voice came from behind him. Nyanko turned his head in confusion. He saw one of the Earth Grudge Fears frantically fleeing.
"This guy, he's really persistent!" Nyanko was speechless. He'd instantly crushed all five hearts, yet this guy could still find an opportunity.
"Rasengan!" A voice came from the distance, then grew closer. A spherical, sky-blue chakra ball appeared instantly above the Earth, Grudge Fear preparing to escape. It pressed down violently.
The moment of contact, the already half-disabled Earth Grudge Fear deflated like a punctured balloon. The black thread-like substance still somewhat alive fell powerlessly to the ground.
Sawada looked up at the scene before him. Yusuke was now sitting powerlessly on the ground. Meanwhile, Nyanko had reverted to his beckoning cat form, flying to Sawada's shoulder.
"Where's Muta?" Sawada asked in confusion, as he'd just arrived to see an Earth Grudge Fear preparing to escape. He didn't hesitate and solved it directly with Rasengan.
"That kid ran in that direction, but he's already unconscious." Nyanko extended a claw, pointing toward the not-far distance. Muta was already seriously injured while dodging Pressure Damage. With his chakra depleted, he hadn't gone far before passing out.
"Let's go!" Sawada came to Yusuke's side, pulled her up, then ran in the direction Nyanko indicated.
After leaping hundreds of meters between giant trees, Sawada finally sensed Muta's chakra. However, it was now like a candle flickering in the wind, ready to extinguish at any moment.
"Yusuke, can you still heal him?" Sawada turned to Yusuke beside him.
"No problem!" Yusuke nodded quickly. Sawada immediately jumped into a patch of grass. Muta lay there. Even before losing consciousness, he'd found a concealed place to collapse.
Yusuke quickly took out her ninja tool pouch. Green chakra appeared on her palms as she prioritized chest compressions on Muta. After all, Muta's heart could stop beating at any time. External injuries were secondary.
"Sawada, those two wearing that cloak..." Nyanko asked Sawada beside him. After all, he'd seen two similar people at the Whirlpool Country coast last time too.
"Yes, their target is the Tailed Beasts." Sawada looked at the still-intact large jar beside Muta, thinking the Four-Tails should be recovered by Konoha.
The Akatsuki organization can no longer suppress their impulses!
