The battlefield in the Hidden Cloud.
Kakuzu's final attack, "Combination Ninjutsu: Final Arrow," blasted out like a chakra cannon.
The powerful force of the five elemental natures seemed to want to destroy everything.
C was shocked: "This guy is strong, he has five nature transformations!"
Darui shouted, "Now's not the time to be impressed, dodge!"
But there was no time to dodge.
In the blink of an eye, the terrifying chakra cannon was upon them.
"It's over!"
As despair settled in their hearts, a massive figure appeared behind them, grabbing both of them and disappearing in a flash of lightning.
"Boom!"
A massive explosion echoed across the battlefield, a small mushroom cloud rising from the blast.
Hidan complained, "Hey! Kakuzu, didn't we agree I'd get the blood for my sacrifice? You just obliterated them! Didn't even give me a chance!"
Kakuzu scanned the area and snorted, "Hmph, if I relied on you, even ten hearts wouldn't be enough!"
"Tch!" Hidan turned his head away with a pout, too proud to admit defeat.
Although not the brightest, he knew that without Kakuzu, he wouldn't have gotten close enough to get the enemy's blood.
Now, with their three enemies seemingly disintegrated, Kakuzu took the lead. Hidan just didn't want to acknowledge it.
"Alright, let's head back..." Kakuzu picked up his tattered clothes and put them on.
He was confident that his last attack had eliminated the trio.
No one had ever survived his "Combination Ninjutsu: Final Arrow."
As he donned his clothes and mask, Kakuzu muttered, "It's been a while since I've faced an opponent worthy of my full strength. It's a shame there are no intact corpses. These three heads would have fetched a good price."
Hidan retorted, "Tch! Always about the money. Living on the edge every day, what good is all that money if you die?"
Kakuzu glanced coldly, "It's not that easy to kill me."
As the two let their guard down and turned to leave, a bolt of lightning suddenly appeared between them.
"Leaving? Did you get my permission?"
With that, Raikage swung his arms, placing each one on Kakuzu's and Hidan's necks.
"!!!"
"You're still alive?!"
Kakuzu was stunned, his body instinctively moving to defend, but it was too late. He couldn't match Raikage's speed.
"Let me show you my full power!"
"Liger Bomb!"
"Boom!"
Kakuzu and Hidan were slammed into the ground by the Raikage, who was covered in lightning.
Two large craters appeared at the Raikage's feet.
"Ugh!"
"Argh!"
The duo, known for their immortality, coughed up blood. Hidan's internal organs were nearly shattered by Raikage's power, and the electric shock paralyzed his muscles, leaving him unable to move.
Kakuzu, with his unique body, fared slightly better but was still in bad shape.
He couldn't understand why Raikage was still alive.
"Can't figure it out? This is the advantage of speed. My body flicker technique is unmatched!"
Raikage raised his elbows, aiming at Kakuzu and Hidan's heads.
"This is the final strike. Let's see if you can survive with your heads crushed!"
