Kakashi didn't let Himon wait too long. In just a moment, the fierce winds whipped up from afar, and at that moment, he yelled at Himon, "Now!"

Himon immediately carried Naruto on his shoulder upon hearing this and flew towards the direction of the short alley.

Kakashi also let out a loud shout, "Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!!!" He took a deep breath, his chest puffed high, then opened his mouth wide and fiercely blew towards the direction of Kakuzu and Hidan!

With a whoosh, boosted by the fierce wind, Kakashi's ninjutsu power instantly increased by one level. A sudden, violent gust of wind howled towards the two opponents!

Trees were instantly uprooted by the wind, and half of the rocks buried in the ground were also unearthed. The fierce storm made Hidan and Kakuzu unable to keep their hands in their pockets, making it difficult for them to move.

Kakashi doing this, of course, wasn't to defeat them; he only wanted to use this ninjutsu to buy more time for himself and Himon to escape.

But at this moment, that deep voice suddenly sounded, "Wind Release: Pressure!!!"

A mask with blue stripes suddenly flew out from behind his back and instantly opened its mouth wide, aiming at Kakashi. Then, with a whoosh, a gigantic high-pressure wind ball suddenly flew out from the mask's mouth!

The fierce wind instantly flattened everything. Even Kakashi's Great Breakthrough was directly shattered by this ninjutsu. The high-pressure wind ball showed no signs of stopping and rapidly charged towards Kakashi.

Then, with a thud, the high-pressure wind ball instantly exploded. Countless invisible wind blades scattered, and countless deep cracks immediately appeared on the ground, as if the earth had been sliced into countless pieces! Even Kakashi himself was cut into pieces by these invisible wind blades!

But just at this moment, Kakashi transformed into a wooden log and left the place using the Substitution Jutsu.

Kakuzu raised an eyebrow and said with a slight sneer, "Oh, Substitution Jutsu, huh? Not bad skills. You actually managed to hide this ninjutsu so well."

Hidan chuckled upon hearing this. "Kakuzu, you're getting useless, aren't you? To actually be tricked by a ninjutsu that only little kids would use."

Kakuzu glanced at Hidan, then said, "Even ninjutsu used by little kids can produce unexpected effects at crucial moments."

Substitution Jutsu isn't a rules-based ninjutsu. It doesn't have the kind of effect where once used, it can definitely substitute the main body and take damage.

The principle of this ninjutsu is actually composed of three elements: illusionary arts, body flicker, and spatiotemporal ninjutsu. Of course, because the application levels are very low, even though it involves three types of techniques, it is very simple to learn, so simple that even children can master it.

Before performing Substitution Jutsu, one must first prepare the necessary substitution materials in advance, such as wooden logs, planks, or wild boar carcasses. Some special advanced substitution jutsu can directly create substitutes using chakra, such as mud substitutes, wooden person substitutes, and so on.

Then, just before being struck by an attack, one first uses crude spatiotemporal ninjutsu to summon a wooden log from nearby or a sealed scroll to substitute oneself. To avoid exposure during this process, one must also...

...use ninjutsu for concealment, and finally use high-speed instant body movement to quickly leave the original location.

The key is that all of this must be completed before being hit.

So, if the enemy strikes, what they hit is essentially oneself, transformed by illusionary changes, and then the ninjutsu is dispelled, and one turns back into a wooden log. This gives people the illusion that they are 100% immune to damage.

But in reality, it's because the attack missed in the first place.

Substitution Jutsu might occasionally work wonders when used once, but once the enemy becomes vigilant, it's hard for it to be effective again.

Because whether it's during the summoning of a substitute or during the use of the Body Flicker Jutsu, one might still be attacked, and it could even lead to more serious consequences.

Even when the level of battle reaches another height, such as in the current large-scale battle between the Masked Guard and the Toad Sannin, even if Substitution Jutsu is used, it might not escape their attack range. Therefore, this ninjutsu was almost completely abandoned later on.

It's not that Substitution Jutsu was too strong to be used, but because it was too weak, which is why it wasn't used.

However, at this moment, Kakashi indeed dodged an attack using Substitution Jutsu. Kakuzu, due to his carelessness, did not detect his movements.

But in such a short period, Kakashi's Body Flicker Jutsu couldn't move too far, so Kakuzu quickly discovered him, and the two pursued him.

Kakashi caught up with Himon ahead. Kakuzu's released ninjutsu's power exceeded his expectations. He no longer had any thoughts of fighting. He only wanted to delay time as much as possible to protect Naruto, waiting for Jiraiya and the others to defeat Jiraiya before he could lend support.

But Kakashi watched the two Akatsuki members getting closer and closer behind him, and his face slowly turned grim.

The speed of ninjas is very fast. In a short while, Himon and Kakashi entered the short alley. They turned into a small alley from the street, escaping Kakuzu and Hidan's line of sight.

Kakuzu and Hidan saw this and immediately sped up in pursuit. However, just as they turned into the small alley, Kakuzu was met head-on by an explosion tag that had already burned halfway!

Kakuzu didn't hesitate. He immediately stretched out his palm, which had been stained black, to grip the explosion tag. Then, with a loud thud, the explosion tag exploded. However, all the energy was seized in Kakuzu's hand, and the explosion had no effect on him!

Hidan, on the other hand, exclaimed in surprise, "Wow! How dangerous! That bastard is really shameless."

Kakuzu's mood became somewhat unpleasant. He pointed to the shadowed ground ahead, where a steel wire was reflecting light under the moonlight. "This opponent seems to be a troublesome fellow."

Hidan looked at the obvious trap but let out a sneer. "Such a crude method, even I can see it. What's so troublesome about it?"

Kakuzu sighed, thought for a moment, and still explained to Hidan, "The Immortal Body isn't absolute either. You, who don't even bother to use your brain properly. This trap clearly is a lure. The real trap might activate when you're disarming it, or even when you're passing over it. This lure itself might even be the real trap."

"This made Hidan confused. He's not someone good at using his brain, so he directly asked Kakuzu, "Are you overthinking this?"

Kakuzu sighed wearily. "You've been able to survive until now, perhaps only because you've encountered nothing but idiots."

Hidan, upon hearing this, burst into laughter instead. "Haha, those people were indeed all idiots, ah hahaha!"

'I haven't told you yet...'

Kakuzu was speechless. He shook his head, throwing all that messy stuff out of his mind. Then he said calmly, "If there's time, we can play slowly later. But right now, let's finish the mission quickly."

A ninja life spanning hundreds of years. How many similar situations had he experienced?

Speaking of this, five masks from inside his body all flew out. Long tentacles connected these masks, floating behind him, then began to condense chakra. Then he said in a deep voice, "All these things are nothing more than psychological warfare common among ninjas. They're also easy to break. There are two simplest methods: one is to simply defeat them with intelligence. This naturally can break everything. The second is to simply overwhelm them with power. This can also shatter all the enemy's schemes, because then you can say to them..."

Kakuzu let out a cold snort. "The game below will proceed according to my rules!"

As his words fell, the blue mask suddenly opened wide. Kakuzu let out a light grunt, "Wind Release: Pressure!!!"

Then, a high-pressure wind ball instantly shot forward, tearing everything in its path into pieces. Then, with another thud, an explosive sound erupted, and the entire small alley was flattened. At this moment, several explosions also sounded, clearly indicating that all the traps had been destroyed!

The houses used to block their view instantly collapsed. Kakashi and the others, hiding behind the wall, instantly revealed themselves with shocked expressions. Hidan's eyes lit up, and he raised his triple-bladed scythe, about to charge forward.

But Kakuzu once again stopped him.

Hidan flung Kakuzu's hand away, saying dissatisfiedly, "What else do you want to do?! The enemy is trying to run away, isn't he?"

Kakuzu said indifferently, "I've told you, from now on, it's going to be according to my rules."

No matter how many tricks the enemy revealed, if they changed their pace, they would just fall into the opponent's rhythm. So, don't bother with him!

Kakuzu formed hand signs, then again let out a soft grunt, "Wind Release: Head Severing!"

The red mask flew forward, spitting out flames in all directions. These flames, like a sea tide, instantly incinerated everything they touched into ash!

And affected by the high temperature, the previous 'Kakashi and others' instantly turned into clumps of smoke with a whoosh. Instead, in the opposite direction, two figures bounced off the ground, rushing through the rolling thick smoke towards the distance!

"See? The mouse will run out on its own."

While Kakuzu was speaking, his hands once again formed seals, and then the white mask immediately flew towards the front. "Lightning Release: Dark Hunt!"

With a crackling sound, two bolts of lightning instantly shot towards Kakashi and Himon! Kakashi was greatly startled. He turned around and threw out two kunai that were also imbued with lightning-style chakra, guiding the lightning strike towards the hardship ahead!

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz!!!

A sharp buzzing sound instantly erupted, and the spreading electric current reached Kakashi and Himon, causing their bodies to go numb and almost stopping them in their tracks!
