"It's useless." Standing in the midst of the ice and snow, Haku's clothes fluttered without any wind. She looked at the smoke and dust and shook her head in amusement. They had underestimated her Ice Age too much. It was simply wishful thinking for a technique of this level to stop her Ice Age.
Sure enough, when the smoke and dust dispersed, there was no trace left on the ice layer like before. The super high-level elemental jutsus could not leave any trace on the ice layer created by Haku. It was really too terrifying.
"Kakuzu, think of something!" Hidan was afraid. He did not want to die so quickly, nor he wanted to be frozen to death. Although he did not know whether he would die or not, Haku's freezing ability was too strong, and the temperature was so low. Once he was touched, it would be no different from death. It would be an eternal sleep.
"What? I can't think clearly now!" Kakuzu was extremely anxious. This time, he did not underestimate the enemy from the beginning. In addition, the worst of his five hearts were the hearts of elite Jonins, so his five hearts were not destroyed. However, even though his combat strength was not affected at all, he was helpless in the face of the Ice Age.
"Zetsu, you are the best at escaping and hiding. Is there any way to escape all of this?." Kakuzu turned to look at Black and White Zetsu and asked.
"I was the only one who could escape before this happened, but now it seems that even I can't escape. Look at the surface of the ice! It is still seeping into the ground and constantly freezing the ground under."
"In other words, my ability to merge with the earth is useless in front of this move. I will also be frozen, and I will be slapped down by that tiger when I fly into the sky. Unless I know a space-time Ninjutsu or I block the Ice Age, I will definitely die. "
Black and White Zetsu was also depressed at this time. It seemed that he was only responsible for transporting the Jinchuurikis and reconnaissance missions. He was not a combatant, so how could he solve this?
"It's over, Ice Release - Freezing Beam!" Haku pressed one hand on the ice with the other hand facing forward. A crystal clear light blue-colored ball of light condensed in the palm of her hand, and a cold aura that suffocated the air was emitted from the ball of light. At the same time that the ball of light appeared, a ray of light shot out and hit Zetsu.
"It's so cold. This is unfair. I didn't expect that I, a non-combatant, would be taken care of fist." Black and White Zetsu's original black and white face immediately turned purple, and his whole body shivered. Almost instantly, he turned into an ice sculpture.
"Zetsu!!!" To be honest, for Zetsu who did not run away alone and saved him just now, Hidan was still very loyal. He wanted to use the sickle to hook Zetsu over and carry him to run away. But because of his slowness, the ice layer's speed was much faster than the running speed of the three of them. The ice immediately caught up.
Although he said so much, everything that happened just now only happened in an instant. From the time Haku used Ice Age to the time Black Zetsu took Hidan to run away, and to the time when Kakuzu unleashed his ninjutsu just now, only two to three seconds passed.
"Ah, Kakuzu, it seems that I will follow in Zetsu's footsteps." Hidan smiled bitterly. His voice was filled with reluctance as the ice beneath his feet quickly spread throughout his entire body. In the blink of an eye, half of Hidan's body was frozen, and only his head was about to be frozen.
"Damn it." Back then, when Hidan stepped forward and saved him at the cost of his body being smashed to pieces, this scene appeared again and again in Kakuzu's mind. Kakuzu, who originally thought that money was everything, actually made a move in the spur of the moment that he himself did not dare to believe.
"Earth Grudge Fear, explode!" Kakuzu rushed over, completely ignoring the ice that was freezing his body. All of a sudden, he pulled Hidan, who had only his head left after being turned into an ice sculpture, and threw him out. Then, a trace of determination flashed through his eyes. Immediately, the sudden explosion spread out in all directions with Kakuzu as the center. The terrible shockwave produced by the explosion actually destroyed the ice layer in a radius of five meters. At the same time, it also slightly slowed the speed of the ice that extended toward him again.
The mushroom cloud that was mixed with flames and smoke rose into the sky. Haku did not expect that at the last moment, Kakuzu actually stepped forward to save Hidan and self-destructed. The terrible effect of the Kage-level ninja's suicidal explosion was now obvious.
"Wind Release - Great Breakthrough!" Haku was slightly stunned. She did not expect that the member of the Akatsuki would actually have this sentimental side. However, the two sides were enemies. She did not want to let anyone from the three people from her first battle back in the Land of Snow escape from her grasp. After all, she planned to catch them all in one fell swoop.
After the strong wind blew away the smoke and dust, he found that not only was Kakuzu gone, but even Hidan and Zetsu, who had completely turned into ice sculptures, were gone. This change made Haku's expression change slightly. She was a little unhappy and even angry. She did not expect that his first attack could have been caught in one fell swoop, but in the end, she let the three Akatsuki members escape from her.
"Haku, you don't have to be angry. With our current strength, even if all the members of the Akatsuki appeared before us, the next time we meet, we can just destroy them. Moreover, they have all started to catch tailed beasts. This is a road of no return that can not be stopped once it starts."
As long as they continue to catch tailed beasts, we will be able to meet them. Your little lover said that he wanted to provoke the battle between the Five Great Countries and the Akatsuki. At the same time, he also tried to create trouble for the Akatsuki so that they can not catch tailed beasts so easily. You also benefited a lot from this battle, and also saved this cat. There is no need to be disappointed.
Byakko comforted the pure-heartd girl. She simply regarded Haku as her personal disciple. Not only was she similar to her, but many of Haku's water and wind release jutsus were taught by her. Seeing that her student was unhappy, she naturally came to comfort her.
"You are right. It's just a pity to miss this opportunity for nothing." Haku also knew that things could not be salvaged. In any case, she had already achieved her goal this time.
"It's nothing much of a pity. The person with the five hearts just now should have used Earth Grudge Fear, his four hearts, and most of the chakra in his body to self-destruct. The power generated by the explosion caused your Ice Age to slightly slow down, but he still had a heart, so he took advantage of the explosion and immediately ran away with the other two. Although he could survive, losing four out of five hearts was enough to give him a headache."
"The other two were lucky. One was frozen by your Freezing Beam, and the other was frozen by your Ice Age. These two techniques are not as simple as your previous jutsus. Even if they escape, it is not so easy to remove the ice on their bodies. They will have to suffer.
Byakko really guessed it right. At the critical moment, Kakuzu used Earth Grudge Fear to trigger the four hearts and a large amount of chakra in his body to self-destruct. Then he used the last heart to take Hidan and Zetsu away.
