*****
Kakuzu was just passing by.
He had accidentally glanced over while he was on his way, and then he saw Suzuki.
That would have been fine, but Kakuto wasn't the kind of person who liked to kill indiscriminately.
Of course, if you paid him, that would be another story~
He had just accidentally killed his employer and didn't get paid, so he was in a bad mood.
He happened to see the Konoha forehead protector on Suzuki's arm, so he casually sent out a wind blade.
What he didn't expect was that the brat in front of him would dodge it so easily.
But so what?
After hearing Suzuki's question, Kakuto's face was full of indifference:
"I attacked because I wanted to kill you. What else could it be?"
"Brat, you're from Konohagakure, right? I don't like people from Konohagakure."
"I'm not in a good mood right now. It's your bad luck to meet me."
Hearing Kakuzu's wild words, Suzuki's expression remained calm.
He knew that this missing-nin from Takigakure hated Konohagakure and despised ninjas from Konohagakure.
Moreover, he said that he was from Konohagakure~
Suzuki looked at the forehead protector tied on his arm and couldn't help but smile. He casually took it off and hung it on his finger, flipping it gently.
Suzuki looked at Kakuzu again, his eyes filled with laughter as he said:
"I see, Mr. Kakuzu mistook me for a Konohagakure ninja."
"But."
In an instant, Suzuki's hand burst forth with an incomparably dazzling lightning light. The extremely high temperature instantly burned the Konoha forehead protector into black ash in the blink of an eye.
"Phew~"
Suzuki blew gently on the remaining black powder on his hand and looked at Kakuto with a gentle smile:
"Mr. Kakuzu really hates Konohagakure."
As he spoke, Suzuki's expression suddenly became calm:
"However, I'm not a Konohagakure ninja."
Suzuki knew that ever since Kakuto was ordered by the village to assassinate Konohagakure's First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, he had resolutely gone.
However, how powerful was Hashirama Senju? He was a man known as the God of Shinobi in the ninja world.
This was an impossible mission from the start, and Kakuzu naturally failed the assassination.
However, what Kakuzu didn't expect was that just because he couldn't complete this mission, after he returned to Takigakure.
The village and companions that he had once loved so much had betrayed him, constantly humiliating and suppressing him for failing the mission.
How could Kakuzu tolerate this? He later stole the Earth Grudge Fear from Takigakure, killed those people, and became a missing-nin.
After being betrayed by the village he loved, Kakuzu had been wandering the ninja world, taking on missions in the black market. From then on, the only thing he loved was money.
But
"That's not a reason for you to attack me."
Suzuki's expression was calm as he looked at Kakuto with indifferent eyes.
After seeing Suzuki suddenly take off the Konoha forehead protector and burn it, Kakuzu's heart was filled with surprise.
Did this brat want to become a missing-nin?
He came to the Land of Sky, which was relatively far away from the Land of Fire, not to do a mission, but to defect?
Did he kill the wrong person?
Kakuzu's face was filled with doubt.
However, after hearing Suzuki's tough question, his face immediately turned cold again, and his tone was even somewhat disdainful:
"I already said, I attacked because I wanted to attack."
"Also, brat, do you think that just because you threw away the Konoha forehead protector, I won't attack you again?"
"Don't be naive!"
Hearing Kakuzu's reply, Suzuki nodded slightly.
He looked at Kakuzu calmly and said in a flat tone:
"Is that so? If that's the case, then there's nothing more to say."
"I originally wanted to hire you directly."
"But since you've said so, I have no choice but to beat you up first and then hire you."
After saying that, Suzuki slowly pulled out the dual swords, Raiga, that were hanging on his waist.
He walked towards Kakuzu with a calm expression, while infusing chakra into his legs to activate the Body Flicker Technique. At the same time, the Armament Haki silently covered his body.
"Bang~"
The ground instantly exploded!
Suzuki's figure was so fast that he almost left an afterimage. In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of Kakuzu.
He raised the dual swords, Raiga, in his hands, and slightly infused some chakra into them. The dual swords, Raiga, instantly burst forth with crackling lightning.
Then, Suzuki covered Raiga with a layer of Armament Haki, and then.
He slashed down fiercely!
"!!!"
"So fast!"
Kakuzu's pupils constricted as he stared at Suzuki, who had appeared in front of him in the blink of an eye. The fine hairs on his face stood up because they felt the lightning.
He didn't expect this brat in front of him to dare to attack him.
Moreover, this brat's strength seemed to be a little strong.
However.
"Water Release! Water Clone!"
Kakuzu instantly used the Water Clone Technique in the midst of the lightning and thunder.
"Splash~"
As soon as the water clone appeared, it happened to block in front of him. Suzuki's Raiga slashed at the water clone, splashing water droplets everywhere.
Suzuki calmly waved his sword and blocked the splashing water droplets.
He wasn't surprised that Kakuzu had dodged his slash. It was just a tentative attack anyway.
At this moment, Kakuzu had already activated the Body Flicker Technique and appeared behind him on his right side.
This old man, who was about seventy years old, was still extremely agile. The speed at which he formed hand seals was astonishing.
In the blink of an eye, Kakuzu completed the hand seals.
"Fire release! Headhunter Jutsu!"
A mask appeared on Kakuzu's body. This was the Earth Grudge Fear!
Then, a small fireball spewed out from the mask's mouth and landed on the ground. Then, the burning range instantly expanded!
Within a radius of hundreds of meters, the trees that were supposed to be green were instantly burned into black ashes. The ground after the flames rushed past also turned into scorched earth!
The flames ruthlessly devoured everything around them.
The incomparably scorching heat wave even caused the trees and weeds outside the flames to start burning.
Kakuzu looked at his ninjutsu and was very satisfied.
This ninjutsu was one that he liked to use very much, and it was also one that he was very good at.
It consumed less chakra, and it could also be used with his Wind Release.
Although it was only a B-rank ninjutsu, the Fire Release-Headhunter Jutsu that was expelled by the fire attribute mask of the Earth Grudge Fear not only had an extremely wide range of flames, reaching up to hundreds of meters, but it was also very powerful!
It was a powerful ninjutsu that could turn everything in front of it into ashes.
Ever since Kakuzu learned this ninjutsu, as long as he used it, those enemies would be easily burned to ashes.
Until now, there had been no exceptions!
Looking at the surging flames that had already reached the brat, a smile unconsciously appeared on Kakuzu's face.
