Chapter 314 Counterattack
Crack~
Boom~
bang bang~
Before I knew it, several minutes had passed.

Lightning, wind blades, flames and water balls appeared on the scene one after another. Kakuzu controlled four masked monsters and continuously attacked Qingming.

However, Qing Ming avoided all of these with the help of the powerful insight of the Sharingan.

Not only that, whenever he got the chance, he would launch a fierce counterattack, which really caused some trouble for Kakuzu.

But this also allowed Kakuzu to gradually see his true strengths and weaknesses.

Finally, after Qingming dodged another round of attacks, Kakuzu stopped wasting time and activated his strongest state - Earth Resentment Mode.

The black stitches that sutured his body suddenly broke, and a large number of black tentacles sprang out from them. They entangled with each other, like giant tentacles, covering his entire body.

This is not finished!
Then, he opened his mouth and dense black tentacles appeared in his mouth.

These tentacles waving wildly in the air looked extremely creepy.

When Qingming saw this scene, he knew that the other party was serious about it.

So, he immediately formed hand seals and used the ninjutsu 'Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet Technique' to attack the fire-attribute masked monster.

Unfortunately, his 'Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet Technique' has been upgraded to level 3 (101/1000) during this period!
However, because it originally requires forty-four seals, it still cannot be performed in a short period of time until now.

Therefore, by the time he finished making hand seals and performed ninjutsu, a masked monster had already blocked the fire-attribute masked monster.

Crack~
A flash of lightning passed by.

A dazzling long snake of lightning spewed out from the mouth of the masked monster and wrapped around the water dragon condensed by Qingming.

The next moment, crackling lightning spread towards him along the water flow.

In order to avoid being electrocuted, Qingming had to interrupt the ninjutsu, push off the ground with his feet and create some distance.

At the same time, Kakuzu refused to give in and continued to control the lightning-attributed masked monster to release lightning-style ninjutsu to attack him.

For a moment, Qing Ming was forced to dodge in a panic.

After this round of attacks, he discovered that two masked monsters had merged into Kakuzu's shoulders, one of which was the fire-attribute masked monster he wanted to attack before.

As for the other one, it is a masked monster with wind attribute.

Kakuzu looked at him from afar, then his tentacles danced and he flew up.

In mid-air, he completed the seal, consuming a huge amount of chakra, and whispered to Qingming: "It's over!"

As he was speaking, the masked monsters on his shoulders suddenly opened their mouths and performed the 'Fire Style: Headache' and 'Wind Style: Suppression' respectively!
The two major ninjutsu merged in the air and eventually turned into the 'Compound Ninjutsu: Flame Wind Wave'!
As the saying goes, fire takes advantage of the wind, and wind helps fire.

When these two ninjutsu are combined, the power they unleash is far more than just “one plus one equals two”.

Its effect is not much weaker than the power of some A-level or even S-level ninjutsu.

Raging flames fell from the sky, instantly illuminating the entire night sky.

Qingming below had nowhere to hide and could only be engulfed by the sea of ​​fire.

"Do not--"

An unwilling roar came from Qingming's mouth.

It can be seen that a wall of water appeared in front of him, but it was of no use in the face of the surging waves of fire.

Eventually, his body was engulfed in flames.

Seeing this scene, Kakuzu's face, which had never changed for thousands of years, finally showed a look of relief.

Honestly speaking, Qing Ming's strength has exceeded his expectations. With a bounty of only 17 million taels, his strength is comparable to some targets worth more than 30 million taels.

Jiaodu felt that he had lost money on this business.

Just as he was thinking about whether he could get some compensation from the black market, a sharp sound like something rubbing suddenly appeared behind him.

"what?"

Kakuzu was shocked, but he did not look back. Instead, he immediately manipulated a large number of black tentacles to form a thick flesh wall to block behind him. However, despite this, the sense of crisis in his heart did not ease much. The feeling of being on edge made him shudder.

Without any hesitation, he quickly completed the hand seal and performed his strongest defensive ninjutsu - Earth Style: Earth Spear!
He had already sensed that the attack from behind was a wind escape technique, and with the defensive power of 'Earth Escape: Earth Spear', it should not be a problem to block the attack.

However, just as he was thinking this, severe pain came over him.

He only felt that the flesh wall composed of a large number of tentacles behind him was torn apart in an instant, and then his body was wrapped in chakra, making it difficult to move.

At the same time, I felt a pricking sensation all over my body.

"Ah~~~"

Even Kakuzu couldn't help but make a sound when faced with the pain that felt like a thousand arrows piercing his heart.

That's right, this is the attack of 'Wind Style: Rasenshuriken'!

Time went back to a few seconds ago. At the moment Qingming was engulfed by the sea of ​​fire, he opened his Mangekyō Sharingan and then performed the pupil technique of his left eye - Ame-no-Miya!

In an instant, he was out of the ninja world, as if he and the surrounding sea of ​​fire were in two different time and space, avoiding all harm.

And this is exactly the opportunity he has been waiting for.

As for the various behaviors before being engulfed by the sea of ​​fire, they were all just performances, the purpose of which was to make Kakuzu let down his guard.

Facts have proven that even someone as cautious as Kakuzu can be careless at times.

Seeing him being engulfed by flames, he instinctively relaxed a little.

And taking advantage of the opponent's slackness, he got behind Kakuzu at the fastest speed, then released the 'Heavenly Guard' and performed the ninjutsu - Wind Style: Rasenshuriken!

Because the distance was too close, the opponent had nowhere to hide and could only defend on the spot, and then... then he suffered a heavy blow!

'Wind Style: Rasenshuriken' is indeed an S-rank forbidden technique.

Its power easily tore through the tentacle flesh wall that even the Kusanagi sword could not penetrate, and it hit Kakuzu directly.

The consequences of a flesh and blood body being hit by the 'Wind Style: Rasenshuriken' that can attack at the cellular level can be imagined.

Qing Ming looked up at Kakuzu who was wrapped in a huge amount of wind-style chakra, and waited quietly for the end of the ninjutsu.

After a few breaths, there was a "bang" sound, and Jiaodu fell from the sky and landed right at Qingming's feet.

Click~click~
Two crisp shattering sounds were heard.

The two masks on his shoulders shattered quietly, and the black tentacles connected to them also wilted.

Not only the two masks, but Kakuzu's own heart was also severely damaged. After falling to the ground, it only lasted for less than a breath before it stopped beating completely.

But at this time, the other party was still not dead.

Qing Ming looked up at the two masked monsters that were rapidly approaching in the sea of ​​fire. He did not choose to stop them, but let them merge into Kakuzu's body.

After a moment, Kakuzu's heart began to beat again and some of the light returned to his eyes.

Unfortunately, he couldn't do anything because all the chakra meridians in his body were damaged.

Just as Qingming guessed before, once hit by the 'Wind Style: Rasenshuriken', it would be useless even if you had five lives.

However, with the help of the Mangekyō Sharingan, he did see that the black tentacles that had merged with it were repairing his body.

In other words, if you ignore the other person, he or she may be able to recover his or her health after a period of time.

Of course, it is also possible that before that, it will be the first to give up and die.

Qingming didn’t know the details, nor did he want to know.

Rub~
The long sword is unsheathed.

Puff~Puff~
Qingming stabbed out with two swords, accurately piercing through the only remaining mask and heart of Kakuzu, completely ending his life.
