Everyone could only dodge with difficulty, looking extremely battered. Kakuzu's ninjutsu attack range was simply too massive, filling the battlefield with oppressive pressure.

Sasuke watched these ninjutsu assaults, drooling with envy.

How much chakra did this guy have?!

And clearly, Kakuzu was still perfectly calm, showing no signs of chakra depletion. In other words, his chakra reserves were massive.

"Tch… as expected of an old monster."

Sasuke gritted his teeth, peeking out to observe, planning to find a chance for a sneak attack.

But he was immediately spotted by Kakuzu.

This time, Kakuzu decided to give him something big.

Two of the mask beasts turned towards him. One unleashed Katon: Zukokku (Fire Style: Intelligent Hard Work) while the other unleashed Fuuton: Atsugai (Wind Style: Pressure Damage). The wind-enhanced fire roared forward, turning into a sea of flames.

"Combined Style: Flaming Wind Rampage!"

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

The firestorm engulfed a massive area.

Sasuke could only desperately use Lightning Body Flicker to narrowly escape being reduced to ashes.

Shikamaru, hiding nearby, quickly whispered,

"Sasuke, don't stick your head out. That guy's senses are too sharp. The moment you peek, he'll notice. Don't worry, I saw earlier – Natsuki left a Flying Thunder God mark on him."

Flying Thunder God mark?

Sasuke felt his heart lighten.

That meant this old monster was finished.

It wasn't just trust in Natsuki's strength, but also in the Flying Thunder God itself. It was simply too fast.

At this moment, Kakuzu was still rampaging across the battlefield, unleashing massive ninjutsu like it was nothing, as if chakra depletion simply didn't exist for him. His attacks were as casual as breathing.

But just as the four mask beasts drifted further away from him, a shadow suddenly flickered behind Kakuzu.

Natsuki appeared in an instant, his cursed blade Senren stabbing straight through Kakuzu's heart.

"H-How… how is this possible?! When did you get behind me?!"

Kakuzu's eyes were wide with disbelief.

"Heh, I'm not telling you. Besides, you're not truly dead yet. All four of your hearts need to be destroyed for that."

Natsuki revealed his weakness mercilessly.

Kakuzu's face twisted, but quickly fell into gloom. This heart was already dead, and naturally, so was he.

Only if the other hearts returned to his body could he revive.

As expected, in the next second, the four mask beasts rushed madly towards him to save him. But how could Natsuki allow it?

He grabbed Kakuzu's corpse and vanished with a Flying Thunder God teleport.

The four mask beasts froze for a moment before giving chase, trying to sense the body's location.

At that moment, Kakashi suddenly attacked, his Raikiri (Lightning Blade) piercing straight through one of the masks. His speed made the sneak attack possible; otherwise, it wouldn't have worked.

Asuma, Neji, and Shino also attacked from hidden positions, but the mask beasts dodged skillfully.

"Raiton: Chidori Eisou (Lightning Style: Chidori Sharp Spear)!"

Sasuke unleashed a lightning spear, piercing another mask cleanly.

Only two mask beasts remained!

Everyone pounced together, unleashing all their strongest techniques. Finally, the last two masks were destroyed.

With all of Kakuzu's hearts obliterated, his life came to a complete end.

Natsuki reappeared with Kakuzu's corpse, surveying the battlefield, which had been nearly flattened. He couldn't help but twitch his lips.

This guy was terrifying.

If he hadn't ambushed him with Flying Thunder God, and if he hadn't teleported the corpse away to prevent the hearts from returning, who knew how long they would have had to fight?

Natsuki could have used his Whirlpool Boil Bullet attack, but there hadn't been a good opportunity. Kakuzu was too fast at dodging, and revealing such a trump card unnecessarily would have wasted chakra.

Originally, he planned to use Flying Thunder God to place the seal and then finish with a Whirlpool Boil Bullet, but this outcome was good enough.

As long as Kakuzu's main heart was destroyed and the others prevented from returning, he was easy to finish off – and they succeeded.

Still, to be certain, everyone checked the corpse thoroughly.

Confirming that all of Kakuzu's hearts were truly destroyed, they finally sighed in relief.

Thinking back to the taijutsu exchanges and the terrifying ninjutsu barrage, they could only marvel at how worthy Kakuzu was of the title "old monster."

They began rifling through Kakuzu's belongings, eventually finding a huge stash of money sealed within a scroll.

Roughly counted… it totaled a full 100 million ryo.

Natsuki knew this wasn't even all of Kakuzu's assets. Most of his money was handed to Konan. This was probably just his earnings from this outing.

They also found an account book listing names and amounts.

Finally, there was a bingo book of bounties. Inside was Asuma's bounty – exactly 35 million ryo, making his face darken.

He also found his friend Chiriku's bounty – thirty million ryo.

"Who the hell placed these bounties? Is it because Chiriku and I were both Guardian Twelve Ninja for the daimyo?"

Asuma pocketed Chiriku's bounty page, planning to visit the Fire Temple soon to warn him. He didn't want his friend to get his head taken for money.

They also found Kakashi's bounty page, but Kakashi quickly snatched it away.

"Eh? Kakashi-sensei, let us see how much you're worth!" Everyone clamored teasingly.

"There's nothing worth seeing. Let's focus on finding intel about Akatsuki."

He tucked it away awkwardly.

Thankfully, no one pressed him further, and they continued searching.

But unfortunately, they found no useful intel.

This guy didn't even carry jutsu scrolls. Maybe he sold them all for money?

Natsuki eyed the 100 million ryo and asked quietly,

"Kakashi-senpai, Asuma-senpai, we're not going to hand this over, right?"

The two jounin paused, then shook their heads.

"This doesn't need to be handed over."

Natsuki grinned.

"Then let's split it. Money is a wonderful thing. Kakashi-senpai can buy the deluxe version of Icha Icha Paradise, and Asuma-senpai can take Kurenai-senpai to a hot spring date, right?"

Cough cough!

Both jounin coughed awkwardly, thoroughly embarrassed.

In the end, they split the 100 million ryo. Each of the six team members received 12 million ryo, with the remaining 28 million ryo given to Natsuki.

Although Natsuki had a wealthy sugar mommy and wasn't short on money, he still deserved the largest share.

After all, the biggest credit for killing Kakuzu belonged to him. If he hadn't used Flying Thunder God to ambush and carry away the corpse, they would have had no idea how to defeat that old monster.

Besides, twelve million ryo each was still plenty.

Neji planned to spend ten million ryo in the black market to post a bounty for clues about the Hyuuga clan's ancient secrets.

Sasuke wanted to buy a better sword. Although short blades were nice, he felt a long sword suited him more.

Shikamaru and Shino planned to save their shares for emergencies.
