After nearly an hour at the Konoha Gate...
"So, we're about to leave, but I didn't know Sai was going to join the team too," I said, noticing Sai arriving with Captain Yamato to join us.
"He's part of the team now, Naruto!" Sakura replied with a smile.
"Alright then, let's get going," I said. Captain Yamato gathered us around and explained the plan for how we would quickly locate their team.
On the other place
Kakashi, Ino & Choji were fighting one Akatsuki member, whilst Shikamaru took the other Akatsuki member in a small distance and was fighting alone,
Kakashi, Ino and Choji got caught by the enemy's attack and wasn't able to move
As , all three of them were trapped and couldn't move , the enemy thrown a huge fire attack towards them
The enemy's massive fire attack surged towards Kakashi, Ino, and Choji, its scorching heat palpable even from a distance. The Akatsuki member smirked, confident in his victory.
Suddenly, an intense, shimmering blue force manifested, warping the space around the fire and its intended targets. The flames, drawn irresistibly towards this point, were compressed and nullified, dissipating harmlessly into the air.
"Limitless Curse Technique: Blue," I declared calmly, standing in front of Kakashi, Ino, and Choji.
"Naruto!" Ino exclaimed, her eyes wide with relief.
"Sorry for being late," I said.
"Actually, you're just in time," Kakashi-sensei responded, his voice steady.
"Is that so?" I smirked, turning to face them. "Are you guys alright?"
"Yes, we're alright!" Kakashi-Sensei said
"You finally made it," Ino said with a sigh of relief.
"What do you mean by 'finally'?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Granny Tsunade told us she would send your team to help when we left," she explained.
"But you came alone?" Kakashi-sensei inquired, a note of concern in his voice.
"No, Sakura, Captain Yamato, and Sai joined Shikamaru," I clarified. "We figured it was better to split up, balancing both sides. But seeing you guys, I guess I get to have a one-on-one battle finally."
"Seeing you struggle against him shows how strong he must be. I can't wait to fight someone that strong," I said excitedly.
"Such a nuisance. You'll be nothing but a heart replacement for me," Kakuzu sneered.
"What's his name again, Kakashi-sensei?" I asked, turning my head slightly.
"Kakuzu," he replied tersely.
"6 words in the name. But don't worry, I will kill you in less than 6 seconds " I said , walking forward
He laughed at my comment, "6 seconds ? You foolish kid. It would take 6 of your life combined to even put a scratch on me" he said with a laugh.
"You think I can't kill you in 6 seconds ?" I asked.
"No, But , if you ask me, I can kill you in a matter of moment " He said, as his threads starting coming towards me , as he already started his attack
"Is that so? Too bad, because the six-second countdown has already begun," I declared, teleporting myself right in front of the incoming threads. "Hollow Purple!" I exclaimed calmly, as a swirling purple energy took shape in my hand.
With a swift motion, I launched the swirling energy directly at Kakuzu.
"What's this?!" he shouted, just before it struck him.
"It's your death!" I replied confidently.
The moment the energy sphere collided with Kakuzu, his threads disintegrated in an instant, unable to withstand the sheer force of my attack. The purple energy pierced through him, tearing apart his chest and erasing his body in mere seconds. There was no explosion or loud crash, just a clean, swift erasure of everything in its path.
Kakuzu didn't even have time to scream. He was simply gone, reduced to nothing by the overwhelming power of Hollow Purple.
As the energy dissipated, there was nothing left of him. I walked toward the spot where he had stood, noticing one of his threads falling to the ground.
"One thread left. I guess I still have a lot to learn with this technique," I thought to myself as I made my way back to my team.
Their faces told me everything; they had a lot of questions. I suppose when you wield such power, it's hard to explain it all.
