Then, Kisame's whole body fell heavily into the water surface, and lost his breath.
"He's down!" Wan'er's Mangekyō Sharingan returned to its original state, and she gently covered her eyes, panting.
"Are you alright?" Seeing this, Kaoru also quickly came to Wan'er's side and asked with concern.
"I'm fine, brother. I only used it once, and there's not much burden." Wan'er smiled and shook her head.
Because of Kisame's death, the Water Prison Technique that held Naruto was also removed, and Granny Chiyo was still pondering over what had just happened.
Why did that Kisame take action, but then take it back?
After killing Kisame, Wan'er walked towards his body. When Wan'er discovered that the one lying in the water wasn't Kisame, but the corpse of another ninja she had never seen before, she shouted in surprise.
"What's going on, brother? This guy isn't Kisame ah." Wan'er asked Kaoru.
"This is the Transformation Technique. It's a ninjutsu that uses living people as sacrifices to create a clone that has the same abilities as oneself." Kaoru explained: "And this clone probably only has one-tenth of the main body's strength."
"So that's how it is. I didn't really defeat Kisame then. It seems that I still have a long way to go if I want to truly defeat those monsters ah." Hearing Kaoru say this, Wan'er pouted and said somewhat dejectedly.
"It's not like that either......" Kaoru affectionately stroked Wan'er's head, "You've done a very good job defeating his clone alone. I think they used this ninjutsu because the main body couldn't get away, and they were just trying to stall for time. But now you've defeated him in such a short time, their stalling plan has failed."
"Really?! Then let's continue on our way and try to rescue Gaara immediately!" Hearing Kaoru's praise, Wan'er immediately revealed a smile and said happily: "Brother, quickly let the puppy lead the way again ah!"
"Puppy......" The corner of Kaoru's mouth twitched. To actually call the Blood Hunter a puppy, Wan'er's naming ability was simply.......
But there was no time to care about this now. Kaoru immediately let the werewolf continue to track Gaara's whereabouts, and the group started to set off again!
300 Instant Kill!
Land of Rivers, inside a pitch-black cave.
"I'm back......" Kisame said somewhat embarrassedly.
"What? You actually came back so quickly? Itachi's side has just started ah." Pain frowned. It had only been a few minutes since he used the Transformation Technique......
"Ah, the opponent's strength was beyond my expectations, so......." Kisame said somewhat awkwardly. Wan'er's strength was beyond his expectations. He was actually defeated by a little girl. Although that was just his clone, if the other Akatsuki ninjas knew, they would probably laugh their teeth off, right.......
"It seems that Uchiha Kaoru's strength is indeed well-deserved. He actually defeated your clone in such a short time." Even the always cold and aloof Konan couldn't help but sigh.
"Cough cough, yes yes!" Kisame coughed lightly twice. He wished he could find a crack in the ground and crawl in now.
"I saw it clearly from a distance, Mr. Kisame. That Uchiha Kaoru didn't even take action, and you were directly defeated by a little girl. That little girl seems to be Uchiha Kaoru's sister." At this time, Zetsu opened his mouth with a teasing tone.
"Bastard......" Kisame cursed inwardly. He had forgotten that there was also Zetsu, the peeping tom. He had lost a lot of face this time.
"Is that so? Kisame?" Hearing Zetsu say this, Deidara quickly turned his head to look at Kisame, and laughed loudly: "I really didn't expect it......."
"Shut up, Deidara. If that little girl didn't know some strange ninjutsu, I wouldn't have lost like this!" Hearing Deidara laugh at him, Kisame immediately retorted.
"Strange technique?" Pain asked with doubt.
"Mm." Kisame nodded, "That little girl's eyes changed like Itachi's, and then the sword that I had clearly slashed down with inexplicably raised up again, and I was countered."
"It sounds like it's the ability of the Mangekyō Sharingan." Pain said. There was an Itachi in their organization who had awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan, so Pain still knew something about this aspect. It was a pity that Itachi was still fighting with Team Guy, and he couldn't ask him now.
"Is it a dōjutsu that can control people's actions?" Konan guessed.
"Let's not care about these things first. There's still some time before the One-Tail is completely extracted. We must send someone again to stop them. Now that Kisame has been defeated, who else is willing to go?" Pain continued to ask.
"I'll go, I'll go!" Hidan kept shouting: "Let my Lord Jashin teach that little girl a good lesson!"
"Unfortunately, your abilities are not suitable for the Transformation Technique." Pain directly rejected Hidan's words. Hidan's strength lay in his immortality and that move that shared damage. After the Transformation Technique, the immortal body would have no way to exert its power.
"In that case, let me go." At this time, Kakuzu said: "Although my abilities are also not suitable for the Transformation Technique, I'm at least stronger than Hidan."
"Hey, Kakuzu, what do you mean?!" Hearing Kakuzu say this, Hidan immediately expressed his dissatisfaction.
"Very good, then I'll let you go." Pain nodded and said: "If possible, investigate that little girl's abilities clearly."
"Understood." Kakuzu nodded, and then began to prepare the Transformation Technique.
......
On the other side, Kaoru and the others, who were rapidly advancing towards the rock cave, encountered enemies again!
The person who came was wearing Akatsuki's red cloud black coat, with a black cloth covering his face, revealing a pair of green pupils. It was Kakuzu.
"Even Kakuzu has come to join in the fun......." Looking at Kakuzu in front of him, Kaoru revealed a helpless smile: "It seems that Kisame's stalling time wasn't enough after all, and they sent another one to make up the numbers ah."
"I heard that Kisame was defeated by a little girl. This is really surprising to me. Therefore, I specially came to see who is so powerful." Kakuzu swept his eyes over the three people in front of him, and then his gaze stopped on Wan'er.
"As expected, there is a little girl ah." After seeing Wan'er, a smile appeared under Kakuzu's mask.
"Another troublesome person has come! Quickly hand over Gaara!" Naruto began to shout loudly again.
"Brother, this time......" Wan'er looked at Kaoru and asked.
"You don't need to take action this time. I'll do it myself." Kaoru said indifferently. The enemy was only doing this to stall for time. Rather than let Wan'er fight, it would be better for him to defeat Kakuzu with one blow.
"Oh? You're Uchiha Kaoru, who is on our organization's wanted list? You're quite confident." Hearing Kaoru say this, Kakuzu said coldly: "However, your confidence will probably cost you your life."
"How boring. I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you......" Kaoru closed his eyes, and then suddenly opened them!
"Mangekyō Sharingan!"
As Kaoru's Mangekyō Sharingan was activated, the werewolf behind him also immediately took action. The werewolf instantly changed from walking upright to all fours, and pounced towards Kakuzu like lightning!
"That summoning beast is?!" While confused, Kakuzu also immediately took action when he saw the werewolf attack. He quickly formed hand seals with both hands!
