The Shadow of Konoha

"Got it!"

When his own shadow was linked with Kakuzu's, Nagisa used Nara's unique shadow binding technique to imprison this strange enemy. However, considering the enemy's chakra strength, he also knew that his imprisonment would not last long, so he spoke in a slightly impatient manner to remind him.

Opportunities are rare and can never be regained. Ninjas sometimes have to be cautious and sometimes have to be decisive and bold. After receiving such a hint, Renjuro rushed towards Kakuzu in an instant... There is no need to hesitate about kicking a drowning dog.

Then, he fell to the ground with a thud while struggling forward, demonstrating for himself what it means to be a dog eating shit.

Renjuro turned around in astonishment, and then he found that the person who had just launched a whip kick at him with lightning speed and stopped him from launching an attack was none other than Hanyu.

"Don't act rashly and don't rush too forward." Facing this puzzled look, Hanyu explained.

Renjuro nodded slightly, and then continued to wonder... How come Hanyu could just rush into the enemy camp at will, but when he, as a teammate, tried to do the same, he was stopped?

Well, this question is not difficult to answer. That is because thanks to his high-speed physical skills, Hanyu can ensure that he can advance or retreat and will never be caught in a dilemma. However, this is not the case for others... It is not that you can advance without retreating, but it is simply not necessary now.

Moreover, Hanyu always felt that at this time they had to guard against the enemy's attacks, and at the same time be wary of their own ninja's large-scale atmosphere ninjutsu... After a round of fighting, the enemy's strength has been roughly judged, and one thing can be confirmed, that is, Kakuzu is a ninja who poses a certain threat to the Hokage.

In this situation, the Anbu ninja will definitely go all out to eliminate the enemy on the spot.

With this determination, if Hanyu and others were accidentally involved in the attack of the Anbu, would the Anbu stop the attack? Most likely, they would not.

If the lives of Hanyu and others could be exchanged for the lives of the enemy, thereby ensuring the safety of the Hokage, it would not be a choice worthy of hesitation for the Anbu - if they really encountered that situation, Hanyu would definitely feel that he died unlucky, but others would only think that this was the price he should pay for destroying a powerful enemy, and that his death was worthy.

Well, there are quite a few ninjas who die worthy deaths every year. If they were lined up, they could circle Konoha.

Given the Anbu ninja's style of "only mission, no sacrifice", they don't mind killing their own people. To a certain extent, Anbu ninja are always accustomed to killing their own people.

On the contrary, even if Hanyu killed an ANBU ninja in the process of killing Kakuzu, it would definitely be justifiable and no one would have any reason to punish him.

Nagisa's shadow binding technique is not a fatal restraint for Kakuzu who has mastered the secret technique of Earth Grudge, as the latter is a fluid ninja with no fixed body.

Next, the four masks behind him suddenly flew out of his body, each with a long black beard. They floated in the air like black jellyfish in transparent waters. The next moment, these things turned around and headed straight for Hanyu.

Then, a violent chakra reaction erupted from Kakuzu's real body, and he broke free from Nagisa's shadow binding technique in an extremely brutal way. Later, after his special clone, he also joined the charge.

After using the Earth's Grudge, Kakuzu lost his human form, and this forbidden tentacle monster posture obviously brought him a higher speed bonus. After all, he can change his form while moving, which is more in line with fluid mechanics.

Then, the big one and four small ones who had just accelerated to the limit suddenly ran into the wall.

A five-sided cube-shaped box dropped from the sky and trapped Kakuzu inside it. Then, with a crisp sound of ignition, a violent flame exploded and burned all the contents including Kakuzu.

Fire Style: Unburned Fire Technique!

So the question is, is this Kakuzu fireproof?

Now it is definitely not a question of whether he is fireproof or not. High temperature and lack of oxygen are not something a normal ninja can endure. Although Kakuzu is a very long-lived ninja, he is by no means an immortal ninja.

In this situation, Hanyu patted Renjuro on the shoulder, ignoring the fear on his face, and said casually, "Look, if I hadn't stopped you, you would have been in the barbecue pile by now."

At this moment, all the Konoha ninjas had gathered around this huge cubic furnace. Hanyu looked around and found that all of Kakuzu's subordinates had been eliminated... The facts showed that wild ninjas were ultimately no match for the elite jonin carefully trained by Konoha. It could even be said that the group of subordinates led by Kakuzu were probably not at the top level among the wild ninjas, because they were eliminated too quickly.

Surrounded by twelve Konoha ninjas, even if Kakuzu was burned to death, it would be almost impossible for him to escape from this encirclement.

The flames seemed to burn for a while. At this time, Hanyu only heard an Uchiha ninja nearby already making a post-war summary. He said to the Hyuga ninja, "You are quite strong, but never forget that the Sharingan is the strongest."

Hanyu was completely shocked, do you have to say this at this time? Where is your emotional intelligence?

In Hanyu's ambiguous memory, after the Uchiha clan was exterminated, it seemed that the Hyuga ninja also said such words. However, the problem is that he said it secretly to himself at night when there was no one around, not in public.

Different people may have different opinions on which one is stronger, the Sharingan or the Byakugan, but one thing is certain: the Byakugan has a function that cannot be replaced by the Sharingan or other eye techniques, while the opposite is hard to say.

Faced with such words, the Hyuga ninja merely glanced at Uchiha, and then honestly did not say anything in rebuttal... Well, considering the image of the Hyuga, you can also say that he rolled his eyes at Uchiha.

After the Senju left, the Uchiha and the Hyuga had become the two major ninja sects in Konoha. They were all descendants of the Otsutsuki clan and were equally famous for their eye power, so competition was inevitable... In fact, these two clans were quite aloof, but the Hyuga knew how to behave better than the Uchiha, and the village was more willing to believe in the Hyuga and were more tolerant of them.

After all, in the war-torn era long ago, the Hyuga were the allies of the Senju. Whether before or after the formation of Konoha, they had never been opposed to the Senju.

"Something is not right..." At this time, another Hyuga ninja who had been staring at the inside of the technique with his Byakugan suddenly spoke.

Because in his sight, the enemies inside suddenly disappeared.

"Undo the jutsul!" He then said anxiously.

The Anbu ninjas looked at each other, then chose to trust Hyuga's judgment and unleashed the Sushiyaki technique as he instructed.

A heat wave hit me in the face, and then the flames dissipated, but there was nothing in the middle of the charred ground... Such a powerful fire escape ended up burning nothing?

Including Hanyu, all the Konoha ninjas turned around almost at the same time and rushed towards the Hokage.

At the same time, the Anbu ninja also fired a red flare into the air.
