Chapter 145: Chapter 145: The Reason Naruto Pushed His Luck Was That Hinata's Byakugan[b]Byakugan[/b] Couldn't See His Pupils
"What's that?" Hidan strode carelessly towards the clay pot.
"Hey," Kakuzu warned. "It's obviously a booby trap."
Hidan stood still, then observed his surroundings and couldn't detect anyone lying in ambush nearby.
"You're just overthinking it. There's no one around here," Hidan said and continued walking towards the clay pot.
Kakuzu stood far away. He had already warned Hidan once, fulfilling his duty as a comrade, and didn't want to meddle anymore.
"Hey—" Hidan exclaimed in surprise. "This is really a trap."
Kakuzu was taken aback. Of course he knew it was a trap, but Hidan's reaction was off.
"What did you see?"
Hidan pointed at the clay pot. First, he frowned, then his expression gradually turned extremely angry, and finally he shouted, "It's a piece of our Akatsuki Organization's robe."
Kakuzu was stunned for a moment and couldn't react immediately after hearing Hidan's answer.
Kakuzu ran over. Taking a closer look, he found there was actually a black piece of cloth beside the clay pot.
The black piece of cloth was pressed under the clay pot. One could see a red cloud pattern embroidered on the cloth. This was the robe worn by members of the Akatsuki Organization.
Kakuzu felt something was amiss. Judging from the way this trap was set up, someone had targeted the Akatsuki Organization.
"Someone has noticed the Akatsuki. Although we don't know who it is, they've come for us."
Kakuzu was very cautious and didn't dare to approach the clay pot.
Hidan didn't care at all. He showed a proud look and was determined to find out the secret of this clay pot.
Hidan walked up to the clay pot, getting very close to it. He looked down at the clay pot with an extremely disdainful expression.
Kakuzu stood a little farther away, staring directly at Hidan's actions.
Hidan squatted down and reached out to touch the clay pot. As soon as he lifted it, he immediately found an Explosive Tag stuck under the clay pot.
"Huh?" Hidan thought to himself, "Is that all?"
Kakuzu thought, "Is it really this simple? This trap is too easy... Just one Explosive Tag?"
"Utterly boring," Hidan said and casually threw the clay pot into the distance.
"I saw the fragments of the black robe with red clouds and thought this trap would be something special. Turns out it's so low - class. It's a total joke..."
Just as Hidan finished complaining, the thrown - out clay pot was detonated by the Explosive Tag. As a huge cloud of smoke billowed up, a strange Chakra suddenly appeared.
"What's this?" Kakuzu was shocked. He sensed a terrifying Chakra.
Hidan got a bit excited. A cocky smile spread across his face, which had looked a bit disappointed earlier.
Soon, Hidan's smile froze because he saw a huge figure.
The One - Tailed Shukaku unexpectedly emerged.
Shukaku flapped its fat tail, slowly turned around, and stared straight at Hidan, who was closest to it, with its big eyes.
Kakuzu thought, "The One - Tailed Beast! How come it's here!"
Hidan asked, "What the hell is this thing? It's so fat."
"The One - Tailed Beast! It's the real form of the One - Tailed Beast!"
"Oh!" Hidan looked at the fat raccoon dog in front of him and involuntarily showed an eager - to - try smile.
"Just how powerful can a Tailed Beast be when it's not sealed within a Jinchuriki?"
"Crack—" The One - Tailed Shukaku let out a screech. "Found those damned humans. Take this slap from me."
Shukaku swiped out with one paw. Immediately, the earth trembled and shook, the ground cracked, and billows of dust rose, surrounding Shukaku's huge body.
Shukaku's strike missed. Hidan had leaped into the air, holding his three - sectioned scythe high and slashing straight down.
With an arrogant look on his face, Hidan used the three - sectioned scythe to slice half of Shukaku's head into a sandy state.
"Wind Release Jutsu! Drill Air Bullet Jutsu[b]Wind Release Jutsu! Drill Air Bullet Jutsu[/b]!" Shukaku, with the remaining half of its head, opened its half - left mouth and spat out a powerful wind - attribute attack.
On a high mountain at a great distance, Naruto was gazing at the large expanse of dense forest below. Sensing the huge commotion coming from the forest, he knew that the battle between the Akatsuki Organization and Shukaku had begun.
"It's started." Naruto put his arm around Hinata's slender waist and brought a bottle of milk to her lips.
This was a bad habit Naruto had picked up over the past three years. For some reason, Naruto really liked to feed Hinata milk.
Especially when he saw the milky - white milk overflow from Hinata's lips, slide down her neck, and drip on her clearly visible collarbone, combined with Hinata's blurred Byakugan, he felt that this was the most wonderful moment in the world.
The pupil - less Byakugan was like an insatiable pit of desire.
The Byakugan with no visible pupils made Hinata look like a delicate porcelain doll, seemingly at others' mercy.
Hinata's pair of Byakugan had a kind of magical power, as if constantly enticing Naruto to go even further.
Because no matter what Naruto did to Hinata, she wouldn't resist. From her Byakugan, it was impossible to tell what Hinata was thinking. The only thing he could sense was Hinata's unfulfilled desires.
The commotion from the dense forest below was getting louder and louder. Naruto stopped feeding Hinata milk.
"Hinata, activate your Byakugan."
"Yes." There was only a faint blush on Hinata's face, which was the color of happiness.
After Hinata activated her Byakugan, she could observe from afar. Coupled with her through - sight ability, her vision could penetrate the thick forest.
From Hinata's perspective, Kakuzu and Hidan had joined forces and were attacking Shukaku together.
"Two people are fighting Shukaku, and Shukaku has the upper hand." Hinata reported the battle situation.
"Can this little cat, Shukaku, gain the upper hand? It's only temporary."
Hinata was extremely shocked. She was well aware of Shukaku's terrifying strength, but Naruto actually said that Shukaku was no match for those two people, which showed that the members of the Akatsuki Organization were even more unfathomably powerful.
In the dense forest, countless big trees were uprooted, and the ground was covered with cracks.
"How strange! I clearly hit him. Why isn't he dead?" The One - Tailed Shukaku looked at Hidan with great confusion.
Hidan gritted his teeth. He was in a very sorry state at the moment, with his clothes in tatters and his body covered in dirt.
"Kakuzu, let's use our combined move against this raccoon - like beast—"
"Just what I was thinking."
Kakuzu and Hidan moved simultaneously and quickly rushed towards the One - Tailed Shukaku.
Hidan seemed to be risking his life. He held his three - sectioned scythe high and charged straight at Shukaku without even a slight turn in his attack route.
Shukaku swatted down with one paw, hitting Hidan right on target and directly driving him underground. Hidan's seven orifices bled, and blood kept flowing from his nostrils.
However, Hidan acted as if nothing had happened. He propped himself up with his hands on the ground and forcibly struggled out of the underground.
This sight left Shukaku stunned. Shukaku had never seen such a resilient human being.
Hidan not only survived Shukaku's Ninjutsu: Renkuudan[b]Shukaku's Ninjutsu: Renkuudan[/b], but now, after being hit by Shukaku's paw, he could still jump around lively. Even the well - informed Tailed Beast was startled.
Hidan was just luring the enemy. The real main attacker is Kakuzu.
"Water Release: Exploding Water Colliding Wave[b]Water Release: Exploding Water Colliding Wave[/b]!" Kakuzu took advantage of the situation to launch the jutsu. Suddenly, a large amount of water gushed out from the ground, surging towards the One - Tailed Shukaku like a wave.
