Chapter 125 The Hunt Begins
The two men in front of him were naturally Kakuzu and Terutsuki Hozuki.
As the armaments of Konoha Village gradually improved, Hiruzen finally gave in and tacitly agreed to Danzo's plan to hunt down the Jinchūriki.
After receiving the promise, Danzo immediately took action, summarizing the experience of his previous life and assigning hunting teams according to the strength and weakness of each Jinchūriki.
Hozuki Teruki, who is able to control the large sword Samehada and is proficient in water escape, is naturally the best choice to defeat Lao Zi.
The one who comes is not kind.
Looking at the two men in front of him, Lao Zi felt a sense of crisis for the first time in a long time.
"Shall I go first?"
Hozuki Teruzuki looked at Kakuzu standing beside him.
In response to Terutsuki Hozuki's question, Kakuzu took a step back to show his agreement.
"Well, boy, come straight on?"
Pointing Samehada in the direction of Lao Zi, Hozuki Teruzuki's action was somewhat provocative.
"Huh, you look very confident!"
The hot-tempered Lao Zi could not tolerate being looked down upon, and immediately rushed towards the other party.
"Molten Escape·The Technique of Burning River Rocks"
Several magma balls were spit out from Lao Zi's mouth and flew towards the direction of Gui Deng Man Yue.
Seeing the lava ball approaching, Terutsuki Hozuki raised his Samehada and swung it out fiercely.
Accompanied by a loud noise, thick smoke and dust rose, forcing Lao Zi to stop.
"Did you make it?"
He squinted his eyes and carefully looked for traces of the enemy. When the smoke cleared, Lao Zi saw the scene in front of him with a solemn look on his face.
The magma balls that originally emitted huge amounts of heat have now all turned into ordinary stones, lying quietly on the ground.
The big knife that was originally wrapped in bandages also revealed the spikes inside.
"Big Sword Samehada."
He said the name of the weapon in front of him in a serious tone, and Lao Zi was frantically thinking about countermeasures in his mind.
This is the only trick I can use!
[Sun, lend me strength! ]
While shouting his partner's name in his heart, a red tail appeared from behind Lao Zi.
Immediately afterwards, Lao Zi's entire body was covered in magma-colored chakra.
[It is just as Danzo-sama said. 】
Seeing Lao Zi using the Molten Chakra Mode, Hozuki Teruzuki couldn't help but marvel at Danzo's erudition.
Long before he set out, Danzo told Lao Zi all the methods that he controlled.
"In that case——"
After releasing Samehada, Hozuki Teruzuki began to form hand seals.
"Water Release: Big Explosive Water Wave!"
......
While Lao Zi was fighting fiercely with Shuujitsuki, Orochimaru and Hokuto also sneaked into the Hidden Cloud Village.
Their target is the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Bulubi.
The Two-Tails Jinchuriki was left to Hatake Sakumo and Jiraiya to deal with.
At this time, Beiliuhu's arms were wrapped in bandages, and his face looked much younger than before. He looked like a teenager.
Through the study of Tobirama's manuscripts, Hiruko has achieved considerable results in the fusion of bloodline limits.
Secret Technique: The Technique of Demonic Buds.
By absorbing other people's chakra and fusing with their bloodline limit.
However, this technique has an upper limit, which is two less than in the previous life.
But the advantage is that Beiruhu's handsome appearance is preserved, and he does not have to turn into a rift-mouthed monster like in the previous life.
At this time, Hokage had already integrated the three bloodline limits of lava escape, steel escape, and hell escape.
Based on the principle of using something to its full potential, Danzo pulled him and Orochimaru out of the laboratory and asked them to hunt the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki.
"I say, Lord Orochimaru..."
Walking in the corner of the street, Obito saw that there was no one around and called out to Orochimaru in a low voice.
"What's wrong, Biruhu?"
Hearing Obito's call, Orochimaru stopped.
"Uh, that's what, uh..."
After thinking for a long time, Bei Liuhu, who didn't know how to start, finally asked the question in his mind:
"Why do you have to pretend to be a woman?"
Since leaving Konoha Village, Orochimaru has always appeared in female form wherever he goes.
Why didn’t I notice that he had this hobby when I was a child?
"Hobby."
With a wicked smile, Orochimaru gently touched Okunoki's face, which had become a little rounder as he got younger.
What the hell!
Something's wrong with you!
Feeling the touch on his face, Biluhu's hair stood on end.
Fortunately, Orochimaru did not take the next step, but turned around and continued to move forward.
"call--"
After letting out a long sigh, Beiliuhu secretly decided in his heart that he must lock the door when he went to bed at night.
Inside the Raikage Building.
The Sandaime Raikage looked at himself in the mirror with gritted teeth.
In addition to the lightning-shaped wound on his chest, there was a new wound on his abdomen that was shaped like a hexagram.
That was what was left from Danzo's last Vacuum Renbo.
He was also regarded as the only humiliation in his life by the Third Generation Lei Yingshi.
He beat Danzo up in his heart, and then a familiar sound of footsteps rang out, interrupting the Sandaime Raikage's thoughts.
"Lord Raikage."
Hearing the voice coming from behind him, the Sandaime Raikage buttoned up his shirt to cover the wound on his abdomen.
"It's Brubi."
Turning around and looking at Bruby, who always had a hint of melancholy in his expression, the Sandaime Raikage spoke as kindly as possible.
The young man in front of him was impeccable in terms of ninjutsu, bloodline, ability, and moral character, and it was natural for him to become the Jinchūriki of the Eight-Tails.
But since becoming a Jinchūriki, Brubi has been declining at a speed visible to the naked eye.
I heard that he has been going to the doctor for prescription medicine frequently recently.
The opponent's condition made the Sandaime Raikage, who originally wanted to let Blubi go to the battlefield after the war started, hesitate.
Therefore, the Third Raikage specifically called him here so that he would not have too much psychological burden.
"When you have nothing to do, you can go and guide Ai's training. And Kirabi, that kid has good talent and is a good seedling."
I hope that communicating with young people can erase the melancholy in this child's heart.
"Yes, Raikage-sama."
When Bruhi heard the words of the Sandaime Raikage, his thoughts were completely different from those of the Sandaime Raikage.
[It looks like Killer Bee will inherit the position of Jinchuriki after my death. ]
The fear of death hangs over Bulubi's heart all the time.
Every late night, the death of the previous Jinchūriki echoed in Bruhi's mind like a nightmare.
I really envy that guy Yumuren.
Able to become the Jinchūriki of the relatively weaker Two-Tails.
How great it would be if I were the Two-Tails Jinchuriki...
With many things in mind, Blubi left the Raikage Building.
"Oh yeah, I'm almost done with the medicine the doctor prescribed."
Bulubi, who originally wanted to avoid the crowd and go home to rest, suddenly remembered that she had almost finished taking the medicine at home.
After hesitating for a moment, Bluby turned around and headed towards the doctor.
