The Red Sand Scorpion's eyes were fixed on Habara. He didn't care who Habara's last name was or whether Habara was strong. At this time, he just wanted to know how Habara stopped his puppet attack... with the naked eye.

It can be seen that Hahara did not actually come into contact with the trap buried under his feet.

But even so, Xie still maintains the same condescending attitude as before, because in his opinion, small tricks are just small tricks after all. Even if these three people are slightly powerful ninjas, it is impossible for them to be stronger than him anyway.

There is nothing wrong with Scorpion's attitude, but it will have fatal consequences - a ninja without strength may not necessarily die, but an arrogant ninja will hardly live long.

Of course, the Red Sand Scorpion can be regarded as a young talent, and his strength is also the leader in the ninja world, but "very strong" is not "the strongest" after all. If you are not the strongest, you will not be arrogant.

"Puppet Master Team? No, you are not the ninjas of Sunagakure, are you..." Scorpion's eyes then turned to Zaemon Matsushiro, "It doesn't matter what your identity is, what's important is, why do you appear in front of me now?

”

"Scorpion, according to the orders of the village's senior officials, we will take you back to Sunagakure." Zaemon said.

She did not use the hypocritical statement "please go back". It was unnecessary and meaningless, and the coercive approach could not be called an invitation at all.

"Go back? Sunagakure?"

This was indeed a funny joke, so much so that a sincere smile appeared on the Red Sand Scorpion's face, but this sincere smile only stayed for a moment, and then it turned into a mockery.

At this time, Habara can better understand the mood of Red Sand Scorpion. The thoughts and actions of "geniuses" like Scorpion are often characterized by self-righteousness. In their opinion, how can their ambitions be suppressed by a small village?

Restraint. For ninjas, Ninja Village is just a cage. Those who have the strength to leave this cage, why should they go back to jail?

Is this idea one-sided? One-sided; is it true? Very true. For ninjas who have reached a certain level of strength, the Ninja Village has indeed become meaningless to them. On the contrary, if there are such people who want

Ninja Village became more meaningful to him, so such people became "shadows".

The Scorpion of Red Sand has more than one spy in Sunagakure, and it also uses special curse seals to control more than one Sunagakure ninja. However, he has left Sunagakure and it is impossible for him to understand Sunagakure's secret information in detail, otherwise he will not be able to

As for not recognizing someone with obvious external features like Hahara.

"Take me back to Sunagakure...Zaemon, not everything in the world will develop according to someone's wishes. This is easy to understand." As he said this, the Red Sand Scorpion walked away from the broken wall where he was sitting.

He stood up, and his gaze when he looked down almost turned to pity.

Zaemon Matsushiro was just about to respond to Xia's words, but Hahara on the side beat him to it, "Of course, the one who can decide everything is not a ninja, but the supreme god."

As he spoke, he reached out and gently touched the puppets that were still hanging on both sides of his body. After this "casual" move, they turned into parts all over the floor.

After saying this, he did not wait for the reaction of the Red Sand Scorpion, and continued to talk to himself, "What is the most expensive thing in the ninja world? It is indeed talent... Zaemon, leave the Red Sand Scorpion to

You just need to hang on to him."

Then Hahara turned his gaze in another direction, and Kakashi's attention also shifted with Habara's movements.

Since talents in the ninja world are so precious, in order to achieve different goals, different organizations will naturally compete for these limited talents.

When the trembling sound of sharp blades intersecting sounded, Hahara and Kakashi had already welcomed another guest from afar... Two streams of chakra had clearly appeared in Hahara's perception.

"Who is he?" Kakashi asked warily.

"It's not clear yet, but... maybe it's a surprise." Hahara said half-jokingly.

The two chakras were obviously coming this way, so Hahara roughly concluded their purpose. What was surprising was that at least one of the two chakras felt extremely familiar... Someone seemed to have mixed in again.

into the enemy's ranks.

Not long after, two calm figures with steady steps walked into the ruins. The black robes on their bodies and the red cloud patterns as red as blood explained their origins.

The sound coming from the bell hanging on the bamboo hat gradually got closer and became clearer. Finally, in front of this deserted path, they met the duo of Hahara and Kakashi who were blocking them.

Obviously, the other party is an enemy, not a friend.

Facing these two exaggeratedly dressed people who were constantly approaching, Kakashi felt an unprecedented pressure... The strength of these two enemies was likely to be far beyond his imagination.

The two people stopped, and when one of them, a slender and pale figure, slowly raised his head and crossed the edge of the bamboo hat, Kakashi saw a pair of extraordinarily narrow eyes.

At this moment, Kakashi confirmed the identity of the other party.

"Orochimaru..."

Orochimaru first glanced in the direction where the sound of fighting came from, thereby confirming the existence of the mission target, the Red Sand Scorpion. Then he turned back, looked at Kakashi, then at Habara, and spoke to the side.

Kakuzu said, "It's a bit bad. This mission is not as simple as imagined... This is really an unexpected stumbling block."

"Isn't the term stumbling block a bit unkind, Lord Orochimaru?" Hahara reached out and took off the mask on his face, smiled and continued to say to Orochimaru, "I can see that you seem to be having a good time during this period.

Very happy."

Of course Orochimaru is happy if he can stay around the Rinnegan. Although he can't play the hand game, it's still very good even if it's just an eyesore.

"Thank you." Orochimaru chuckled a few times in a low voice. His words were not polite, but sincere.

"Since we appeared here at the same time, it means we have the same goal... Is he here?" Orochimaru asked again.

In order to get closer to the Rinnegan, Orochimaru has to work hard to play the role of a worker at this stage.

"He? Well, the Red Sand Scorpion is having an 'appetizer' over there, right?" Hahara said very honestly.

Since she can be sent out by Chiyo to carry out such a mission, Zaemon Matsushiro must be a capable ninja. It would be a bit wishful thinking for her to single-handedly defeat the Red Sand Scorpion, but correspondingly, she would not be instantly killed by the Scorpion.

Theoretically, Scorpion should become a member of Akatsuki next, but now that Hahara and Kakashi are blocking it, things are hard to say... and things have changed to a considerable extent. As far as Hahara knows, originally

Xiaonan should be the one who comes to "greet" the Red Sand Scorpion in "Akatsuki".

Scorpion's moves were too inconsistent with Xiaonan's ability, so he went to the Land of Rain after being defeated. But this time it was different. The person who came to greet Scorpion changed from a single older woman to a man with a combined age of 150.

Single.

Habara doesn't know exactly when Akatsuki began to assemble members, but the process is relatively long, and there are some changes in the middle that are not worth making a fuss about.

"I think I've seen this face somewhere before." Kakuzu looked at Habara and said, but because his impression was rather thin, he didn't pay attention to it, but immediately turned his attention to business, "The goal is clear, try your best here.

A quick fight, the Red Sand Scorpion is hard to find. If we let him escape, things will be in trouble."

"Quick victory?" A strange smile appeared on Orochimaru's mouth hidden under his collar, "Of course, the mission comes first... In this way, Kakashi belongs to me, and the rest is left to you to deal with, is that okay?

"Foolish question."

Kakuzu snorted coldly, then flicked his sleeves and rushed towards Habara like a cannonball.

This tall ninja moves with speed and power in every move. Judging from his movements, no one can believe that this man has lived to be eighty or ninety years old.

Regardless of whether he can fight or not, Hahara hopes that he will be as energetic as this man when he lives to this age. In other words, what is the point of going out to fight at this age?

Out of concern for the mental health of the elderly, Hahara faced Kakuzu's fist with one hand. Just when his palm was about to grasp the opponent's fist, Kakuzu turned his wrist and hid it in his hand.

The kunai in his sleeve was already held in this man's hand, which meant that what Habara's palm was about to meet was not a fist, but a sharp blade.

As expected of an old silver coin who has lived for so many years, even if he thinks that his strength is far superior to his opponent, Kakuzu still makes a sneak attack when he needs to... If an enemy can be eliminated at the minimum cost, why not use it.

This trick is definitely effective against ordinary ninjas. As long as half of a ninja's hand is cut off, it means that the ninja is useless. However, this trick is ineffective against Habara.

As we all know, Hahara is a famous "mafia" in Konoha. In battle and even in daily life, he is relatively insecure and always covered with metal armor, both torso and arms.

With an extremely harsh sound, the kunai's blade drew a burst of sparks in Habara's palm. He held the kunai's blade with his backhand and snatched it away. This reckless move made Kakuzu, who had lived for many years, feel confused.

A surprise.

Aren’t you fucking afraid of being chopped?!

I have encountered people who are not afraid of being cut, but their resilience is only a few hundred million points stronger than that of ordinary ninjas, and they are not beyond the range of flesh and blood when faced with sharp blades.

Thinking of that person, Kakuzu suddenly felt a little unlucky.

At this time, of course Hahara didn't care what Kakuzu was thinking. He always respected this kind of powerful enemy, so facing Kakuzu who had rushed to such a close distance, he flew up and kicked Kakuzu without hesitation.

side abdomen.

The moment he was hit by this unreasonable force, Kakuzu's body instantly arched at an exaggerated angle, and then he smashed into the ruins at an extremely manic speed. A huge impact sound was heard, and he fell.

The location is even more dusty.

Respect him and kick him to death. This is Hahara's creed of respecting the elderly.

Such an attack is enough to kick an average ninja into paraplegia, with the lower half paralyzed and the upper half paralyzed as well. However, because of the secret technique of Earth Resentment and Yu that Kakuzu masters, a blunt blow of this level can hardly cause any damage to him... Kakuzu

Fa is cuter than all the soft and cute girls, but he can be softer than all the soft and cute girls. This is a bit similar to Orochimaru.

And unlike Orochimaru, Kakuzu is also a mafia.

Habara knew that the attack just now could not cause any damage to the corner, so he quickly rushed towards the rising dust.

Before he could get closer, a ball of bright and dark orange-red flames rushed toward him.

As Hahara rushed forward, he quickly lowered his body, and the flames rushed behind him. At the same time, he touched the ground with his right hand, pulled it back, and pushed it down. With the help of the reaction force, he stood upright.

, the speed increased instantly.

When the passing flames made a crackling sound, Hahara had already rushed in front of Kakuzu. He stabbed back with the kunai he had just captured. Then when the tip of the kunai hit Kakuzu's palm, it

It broke instantly.

Almost a mirror image of just now, Kakuzu also has a hard black hand.

But what was different was that Habara's next blow followed. His left hand pointed like a knife, and brilliant lightning lit up on his palm. Then he swung his palm down like an axe, and the "Thunder Blade" struck

Kakuzu's indestructible wrist was then cut off instantly like a hot knife cutting through butter.

"I was right." Hahara secretly said it was a fluke.

Any defensive skill that he did not understand, Hahara would always regard it as earth escape. Since he wanted to deal with earth escape, of course he had to use the restraint type thunder escape.
