Chapter 166: CH 166
The mask quickly dashed off towards Naruto before swirling around and making a whirlwind that it seemed to be compressing in place before finally letting the glowing pressurized wind go. The force of the released attack sent Naruto flying off rapidly through the arid landscape.
Naruto exploded out of the sand that buried him and glared at the mask that was coming his way once again. He pulled the sword from his back and leapt forward, his tails of chakra propelling him forward. The wind mask attempted to meet him head on but with a simple shift of movement with his chakra tails, he barrel rolled aside and kept blasting through the sand to head back towards Hidan and Kakuzu.
Kakuzu had just finished sewing the gaping wound on Hidan's chest shut, amid much swearing and death threats. As a dust cloud rushed towards the two men, Kakuzu's eyes widened , "Uh oh, you're going to want to move." With that he jumped out of the way.
"Damn it you know I'm slower than you Kakuzu-." And once again Hidan ended up taking the brunt of Naruto's wrath, this time getting his head cleaved clean off. Not stopping to check over his handiwork, he moved on to the deceptively fast Kakuzu.
As Kakuzu backpedaled through the sands he made a snake hand seal that turned his visible skin darker, near black, "Doton: Domu (Earth Release: Earth Spear)" Naruto went to swing his blade at Kakuzu and watched in shock as he simply blocked with his forearm. He then barreled at punch and drilled Naruto in the face that sent him flying back once again. Kakuzu went back over to Hidan while Naruto was still reeling. He picked Hidan's head off of the ground, "And that's why you need to actually train to be faster instead of praying to your 'God'. Maybe then you wouldn't suck so badly."
The disembodied head of Hidan held a shocked lifeless face... for about three seconds before it snarled and tried to bite at Kakuzu, "Shut the hell up you heathen! With a gift like this from Jashin-sama why would I possibly need to be fast? I can survive anything."
Kakuzu walked back over to where Hidan's body had dropped, "I don't know, maybe because sewing your pathetic ass back together is getting repetitive. Untalented ninja should just die and yet you keep sticking around."
"Just shut up and put me back together already so I can tear that kid open!" Hidan snapped.
"It looks like he's the one tearing you open from what I've been watching." Kakuzu quipped.
