Pokémon Ninja Scrolls of the Mizukage

Chapter 243 What a pity
"Open it for me!"

Jianchuan Ju shouted loudly.

Veins bulged on his arms, and his strength increased even more.

The original stalemate was broken in an instant.

The double power of the long-accumulated "Iai Slash" and "Acupoint Pressing", plus the huge inertia of diving down from a high altitude.

With the triple blessing, Jianchuan Ju's sword directly shattered the Earth Grudge Yu silk thread shield strengthened by the 'Earth Spear'.

After shattering the shield, 'Ryujin Jakka' was still unstoppable and split Kakuzu's intact left arm in half.

The slash finally stopped when it landed on Kakuzu's chest, failing to destroy Kakuzu's heart with one blow.

However, this powerful force still blew Kakuzu away.

'How can it be! ’

Kakuzu flew backwards with shock and disbelief in his eyes.

He was clearly a kid who could be knocked away by one punch from me before, so why did his strength change so drastically in such a short period of time?
However, Jianchuan Ju had no time to answer Kakuzu's questions at that moment.

Seeing that his attack failed, Jianchuan Ju didn't plan to give Kakuzu a chance to react. He dodged the two attacks from behind again, flapped his wings and continued to chase Kakuzu.

'We can only try it!'

Ignore the attacks from the two earth-resenting monsters in the air.

Jianchuan Ju, who has enhanced reaction, does not need to look back, and can dodge flexibly with the help of "Danger Prediction".

As he moved by flying, he could even ignore the electric currents surging on the water surface.

His figure left a white line on the sea surface, instantly closing the distance between him and Kakuzu.

At the same time, the two monsters behind, which had lowered their altitude due to chasing Jianchuan Ju, were also stopped by the little frog.

Dozens of "Flying Water Shuriken" hit the two monsters, causing the Earth Resentment Silk Threads on their bodies to splatter everywhere.

These two monsters do not have the defensive blessing brought by the 'Earth Spear'.

Sensing that the attack from behind had stopped, Jianchuan Ju sped up again.

'Well done! '

Jianchuan Ju finally got close, and without the interference from behind, he slashed out dozens of times in an instant.

only……

"Idiot brat!"

How could close combat be a weakness for an old fellow like Kakuzu who has lived for nearly a hundred years?

Even Kakuzu's close combat skills and experience are enough to crush most jonin who specialize in physical skills.

Even if Jianchuan Ju activated the acupoint pressing bonus, he would not be able to gain any advantage in a fight with him.

The black tentacles of the Earth Wrath on Kakuzu's body spread out and transformed into countless whips, which continuously whipped and pierced Jianchuanju.

This forced Jianchuan Ju to slow down his attack frequency and use his short knife to block and parry.

The sound of "ding-ding-dang-dang" continued to ring out. Jianchuan Ju was not only unable to penetrate the defense of the "earth spear", but tiny wounds kept appearing on his body.

'wrong! ’

Kakuzu, who seemed to have the upper hand, suddenly became alert.

Although the kid failed to penetrate his defense except for the first dive attack, he felt a piercing chill in the area that was hit by the dagger.

"Did you find it?"

Jianchuan Ju, who had remained silent all this time, ignored the pain in his body and gave Kakuzu a bloodthirsty smile.

The movements of his hands became more unscrupulous.

For a moment, knives were flying everywhere.

Ice-blue knife marks gradually began to appear all over Kakuzu's body.

These knife marks were like some terrible virus. As soon as they appeared, they immediately began to spread around.

In a flash, all the black tentacles of the Earth Wrath were covered with a layer of white frost.

Even the white frost continued to penetrate inward, trying to freeze all the silk threads.

The silk tentacles that Kakuzu used to be able to control with ease gradually became less flexible due to being frozen.

Jianchuan Jue continued to swing his sword while enduring damage from the beginning to the end, so it was impossible that he was acting on impulse.

Even after the first charged attack of 'Iai Slash' cut off both of Kakuzu's arms, it failed to destroy the earth escape heart.

Jianchuan Ju secretly performed "Ice Escape*Sleeve White Snow" to spread the frost air to the blade.

Each subsequent slash and block, although unable to cut through the hardened silk tentacles, did allow the cold air on the knife to penetrate into them.

The added strength and reaction speed brought by 'acupoint pressing' also allows Jianchuan Ju to hold out for a while even when facing an experienced taijutsu master like Kakuzu.

This is exactly the time that Jianchuanju wants!
As the two continued to fight, Kakuzu's movements became more and more stiff, until the battle returned to the beach.

"Bang~"

Jianchuan Ju kicked Kakuzu in the chest, then turned over and leaned back to put some distance between himself and Kakuzu.

Kakuzu, who originally had good physical skills, not only failed to dodge the ordinary kick, but even staggered back two steps on the beach.

What was even more horrifying was that Kakuzu, who was retreating stiffly, missed a step and fell to the ground.

The right leg made of the Earth Resentment Silk Thread suddenly shattered into countless ice crystal fragments after stepping on the ground twice, as if it were a fragile glass product.

‘It’s done! ’

Jianchuan Ju took the opportunity to activate "Yusu", quickly healing all the large and small wounds on his body, and then looked at the embarrassed Kakuzu again.

"If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being a thread monster."

If an ordinary person was hit by Jianchuan Ju's continuous slashing and freezing, he would only suffer frostbite and have limited mobility.

He would never be as fragile as Kakuzu, who was completely corroded by the cold.

To put it simply, Kakuzu's Earth Grudge Threads are just blood vessels that have been transformed by a secret technique. The strength of a single thread is not very high. Even though the earth escape hardening can withstand physical damage, it cannot prevent the erosion of cold air.

After being completely frozen, it looked more like a giant 'sugar apple', with the 'sugar threads' on its body shattering at the touch of a finger. It was completely restrained by Jianchuanju.

However, just as Yusu finished the quick treatment and Jianchuan Ju was about to step forward to subdue Kakuzu again, the "danger premonition" in his mind once again issued a shrill alarm.

Jianchuan Ju knew without thinking that the two Earth-Resentful Monsters on Lanzai's side had probably given up on continuing to fight with the little guy and were rushing to rescue the main body.

In fact, if Jianchuan Ju had not chosen the dangerous close combat, the attack of the lightning-attributed masked monster might have accidentally destroyed Kakuzu's own "Earth Spear".

Jianchuan Ju had no chance to fight Kakuzu alone for so long.

'Unfortunately, it's still a little off.'

The moment Jianchuan Ju sensed danger, he quickly spit out two wind cones from his mouth, shooting directly at Kakuzu in the distance.

At the same time, his body immediately left the spot, trying to avoid the upcoming attack.

However, the danger warning in my mind was like a maggot attached to my bones and did not subside at all.

Only then did Jianchuan Ju have time to look back and check the situation.

I saw that the masked monster with fire attribute was following closely behind me, with faint traces of burning red light on its body.

"Damn it! Is this thing going to explode?"

Without stopping, Jianchuan Ju moved quickly, trying to create some distance between himself and the fire monster.

However, before it had taken two steps, the monster began to grow larger and larger, and it was obviously on the verge of exploding.

Fortunately, Jianchuan Ju has completed the seal.

"Water Style*Water Prison Technique"

A large amount of clear water was spit out from the mouth, which quickly spun around Jianchuan Ju's body, forming a spherical water prison.

Jianchuan Ju was certainly not trying to build a water dungeon to control himself at this time.

Just as the water prison was about to take shape, what came out of Jianchuan Ju's mouth was no longer water, but cold air.

In an instant, most of the water on the outside was frozen into thick ice, while the Jianchuan Orange in the center was still wrapped in the water.

After some of the clean water deep underground freezes, it acts like forked tree roots, firmly fixing the hollow ice ball to the ground.

It's too late to say.

The moment the 'Ice Prison' was formed, the size of the Fire Masked Monster also expanded to its limit.

"boom--"

A deafening roar tore through the sky.

How powerful would it be if all the chakra of a top-level jonin was unleashed?

The blast of flames rising into the sky and the rapidly spreading air waves caused by the explosion were enough to explain everything.

For each of Kakuzu's hearts, he chose an elite jonin with corresponding attributes, and perhaps the original owner of the heart had never seen an explosion of such power.

The violent explosion shock wave, carrying flames and countless burning gravel, slammed into the 'ice prison'. Jianchuan Ju inside could already hear the sound of the outermost ice shield being hit by gravel, and the sound of the ice layer breaking due to the shock wave.

next moment.

"Crack~" There was a clear sound of ice breaking.

But this was not the sound of the outer layer of ice breaking;
"It's finished."

Jianchuan Ju's face turned pale.

"Whoosh——" sound.

The ice ball, which should have been firmly fixed on the ground, was instantly blasted into the air by the shock wave of the explosion.

Needless to say, the breaking sound just now was exactly the cracks in the ice used to connect the underground.

Without the ground fixing point, the weight of Jianchuanju and the ice prison alone could not withstand such a strong explosion impact.

The ice ball that was blown into the air began to roll wildly, and Jianchuan Ju inside it took a lot of effort to just readjust its body before the ice ball hit the ground.

After quickly releasing the 'ice prison', the ice ball fragments and the clear water in them fell from the air, and Jianchuan Ju simply spread a pair of wings and soared into the sky.

After slightly alleviating the slight dizziness caused by the tumble, Jianchuan Ju finally looked back at the beach where the battle had taken place.

However, at this moment, apart from the huge crater left by the explosion on the beach and Lanzai who was emerging from the sea, there was no trace of Kakuzu.

Thinking of the scene that I caught a glimpse of just before the 'ice prison' was formed.

Although the two 'pecks' successfully hit Kakuzu's heart, the lightning-attribute masked monster also flew towards Kakuzu's 'corpse' at full speed at the same time.

Even though we didn't see the subsequent scenes, Jianchuan Ju had already made some guesses.

"I guess he ran away."

After a quick patrol in the air, 'Danger Prediction' did not sense anything, so Jianchuan Ju lifted the 'Acupoint Pressing' and fell back to the sea. Although the feeling of weakness still enveloped his whole body, it was countless times better than the previous battle with Minato Namikaze.

However, Jianchuan Ju still looked at the big hole on the beach with some regret.

"Alas, I was thinking of recruiting him again after the battle."

This chapter has a little more words, mainly because I thought it would be better not to split the remaining 1,000 words of the battle into tomorrow, otherwise it would be too unfriendly to the readers who are following the story, so I decided not to split it into two.

Also tell you another good news.

Today this book has reached 3000 average subscriptions, which means it has entered the premium channel.

It is estimated that the exquisite badges will be available in the next two days.

Thank you all readers for your support along the way.

I originally wanted to write a chapter of thanks for the masterpiece, but when I thought about the time when I was reading a book in the past, I would see "three chapters unread" and click on it with great joy, but it turned out that one chapter was nonsense, and my mood was not so good anymore.

So let’s just talk nonsense here.

As a new author, I started writing books because I was unemployed. Later, when I found a job, I was busy with both. I couldn’t even think that I could write a masterpiece.

Perhaps it is a combination of coincidences and luck, but the most important thing is your support.

Once again, I would like to express my sincere gratitude. Thank you.

PS: I should have added another chapter for such a good thing, but I really don’t have any manuscripts on hand. It’s already past eleven o’clock when I type this paragraph, and I have to stay up late tonight to write, so as to avoid interrupting the update tomorrow due to tight schedule.

I'll just assume that I owe you all a chapter this time, and I'll definitely make it up before the end of the month.
