Naruto: We are invincible

Naruto noticed two other cracked masks on the ground.

"This kid lives up to his reputation, the Thunder God of Konoha." Kakuzu thought.

"Are these masks related to his life? Maybe I have to kill him three more times before I can finish him off." Naruto thought and decided to continue fighting.

He looked around, unable to find the mask, until he heard a whirling sound to his right.

"Wind Release: Pressure!"

"Fire Release: Head Hard!"

Both masks fired simultaneously, combining both elements to form a blazing fireball that flew at Naruto at high speed.

"Divine power!"

In just a fraction of a second, the destructive, shining fireball disappeared without a trace before his eyes.

"Divine power!"

Naruto yelled again and used his left eye to focus on where Kakuzu had been.

The space around Kakuzu began to distort, and the shining fireball that had been sucked in earlier suddenly appeared next to him.

Kakuto didn't have time to dodge as the fireball collided with him and his entire body exploded in a whirlwind of flames.

When the whirlwind subsided, Naruto found that Kakuzu's mask was still there, but his body seemed to have turned to ash.

Suddenly, Red Mask flew towards the ashes and dove in. Slowly, Kakuzu rose again from the ashes, unharmed.

'This kid is really dangerous.' Kakuzu thought to himself, as Naruto had destroyed three of his five hearts.

"Two masks left," Naruto sneered and Kakuzu's eyes widened.

"So you figured it out." Kakuzu asked and Naruto nodded.

"Yes. You seem to have a deep connection with each mask you carry. Judging by the fatal blows I've dealt you, you should have been dead three times, but you're still standing. Each time I 'killed' you, I actually destroyed a mask. Once all the masks are gone, you will be dead."

"Impressive observation. It is true, I stole hearts from powerful ninjas that I defeated in battle. This way, I could extend my lifespan, I am already over a hundred years old, I once fought the Shodaime Hokage." Kakuzu explained and Naruto was shocked.

"Senra Tensei!" Naruto shouted as green markings appeared on his face. They formed a ring around his eyes and extended onto his cheeks. His Sharingan shone brighter than ever before.

"he wants……"

"Wood Release Secret Technique." Naruto said, making a hand seal, and the ground began to shake. Naruto looked at Kakuzu, who panicked and began to make hand seals as well.

"Fire Style: Skull Carving!" Kakuzu fired a stream of fire, but Naruto had already completed the seal.

"The birth of the tree world!"

Naruto yelled, stretching his arms forward and trees erupted from the ground, hundreds of them suddenly emerged from the ground and rushed towards Kakuzu.

The stream of fire collided with Naruto's Wood Release, but it was ineffective as the trees easily dissipated the flames.

The trees rushed towards Kakuzu. Kakuzu tried to dodge, and the light blue mask fired wind blades and bombs, but to no avail.

Kakuzu jumped into the air, trying to avoid the attack, but was eventually entangled.

A tree appeared from behind, entangled his left ankle, and threw him towards another tree.

Finally, the trees entangled his legs and arms.

Kakuzu felt a sharp pain in his chest and he looked down to see a piece of wood piercing his heart.

He breathed shallowly and looked into Naruto's eyes one last time, they seemed to be spinning. When the spinning stopped, Kakuzu realized the wood had disappeared and turned into Naruto's sword.

He looked at the other mask and saw it was trapped on the ground by Naruto's golden chain.

The light blue mask is facing the sky, and any spells it fires will deviate from their target.

"What...what is this?" Kakuzu asked.

Naruto stood behind him, sword in hand.

"You're over a hundred years old and yet you've forgotten a simple detail."

Naruto walked around Kakuzu and stood in front of him, locking his eyes and simply said;

"Never look an Uchiha in the eyes."

Kakuzu's eyes widened.

From the moment Naruto started making strange hand seals and gathering chakra, everything that happened was a genjutsu.

Naruto used Kakuzu's experience fighting the First Hokage to convince him that Naruto possessed Wood Release.

It was just a distraction, and Naruto used this opportunity to end the fight.

"Amaterasu," Naruto said as the light blue mask erupted in black fire, completely destroyed.

Naruto turned to Kakuzu and looked at him - he only had seconds left to live.

Naruto pulled the sword from his back and Kakuzu fell face down to the ground, no longer having the strength left.

With all five masks destroyed, Kakuzu no longer had a heart and died.

Even though Naruto won a long battle, he felt something strange.

All members of Akatsuki should be truly strong, but Angle fell into the trap of a simple illusion.

As Naruto was thinking, the body under his feet began to twitch. Naruto quickly jumped away.

After his body stopped twitching, Naruto approached cautiously.

Naruto looked closely at the body and saw that his appearance was nothing like Kakuzu's.

The man standing in front of Naruto was definitely not Kakuzu. This man was about the same height as Kakuzu, but looked like an ordinary person. He had brown hair and completely white eyes.

"He seems to be just an ordinary victim." Naruto suddenly came to his senses and immediately focused on Hinata's Flying Thunder God Mark, disappearing in a yellow light.

## With Kenshin, Hinata, and Shikamaru##

Kenshin, Hinata, Sora, and Shikamaru are trapped in a sealed iron wall. Jiru says this is the safest place in the Fire Temple. Only someone who knows the correct hand seal sequence and has the correct chakra mark can open the door.

"Is Naruto okay?" Kenshin asked a little worriedly.

"He'll be fine...don't worry." Hinata replied.

"How can you be so sure?" Kenshin asked in surprise.

"Because he never gives up, never surrenders. This is his way of ninja."

Hinata finished speaking, then threw a book to Kenshin:

"Page 88."

Kenshin quickly turned to that page:

"Konoha's Thunder God... S-rank... Uchiha Madara... Senju Hashirama... Namikaze Naruto." Kenshin's eyes widened when he saw the information about Naruto.

Suddenly, they heard the sealed door unlock, and everyone took a defensive stance, surrounding Kenshin.

The door opened and Jiriku came in with a severely injured and nearly unconscious Sasuke.

"What happened?" Kenshin asked.

"He was defeated, but Naruto and I arrived in time to save him." Ji Lu said, and gently put Sasuke on the ground, "Naruto said you are a medical ninja." Ji Lu said to Hinata.

"I'll see what I can do." Hinata said, activating her Byakugan. Sasuke's injuries were very serious.

Hinata walked over to Sasuke and lifted his ankle. She twisted it gently to put it back in place and used the Palm Senjutsu to heal the other injuries.

"Okay. He needs a few days to rest now," Hinata explained and Ji Lu nodded.

Just as they were relaxing, they felt someone enter the room.

They turned around and saw a man wearing a red cloud and black cloak standing in the middle of the room. Most strikingly, he was wearing an orange mask with a swirling pattern.
