Chapter 187: Nonstop Continuous Blade

Boom!!

The Hell Stab: One-Finger Nukite, swung with all of Kaio's might, struck Kakuzu, its terrifying force instantly piercing through Kakuzu's body.

Even the advanced Earth Release Hardening technique, which could fully defend against Akimichi Choji's Ballistic Tank in the anime, appeared as fragile as paper before Kaio's The Strongest Spear, easily punctured.

"Urgh..."

A gaping hole was blasted directly through Kakuzu's body, fresh blood mixed with shattered organs continuously pouring out from his mouth. Staring at Kaio standing before him, Kakuzu couldn't help but widen his eyes, "This guy is from the Hidden Cloud..."

"Kaio's Lightning Release happens to counter your Earth Release... The feeling of having your heart dug out isn't too pleasant, is it?"

At this moment, from the ground not far away, completely destroyed by the Lightning Release Mask and the Fire Release Mask, came the somewhat mocking voice of Yu.

Amidst the ashes shimmering with electric light, Yu remained unharmed under Michael's protection. A huge Barrier Sphere enveloped him, Michael, and Tyrant, shielding them from all the Ninjutsu attacks just now.

"This damn kid..."

With his heart pierced by Kaio's Strongest Spear, Kakuzu finally flashed a hint of panic in his deep crimson and jade-green eyes as he watched Yu emerge unscathed from the ashes nearby. Yu's strength had completely exceeded his original expectations.

Wind Release: Pressure Damage!!

The urge to retreat emerged in Kakuzu's heart. Seizing the opportunity while he could still move his body, Kakuzu's Wind Release Mask on his back immediately unleashed an immensely powerful wind pressure cannon. The explosive force erupted at point-blank range, pushing Kaio back a few steps.

However, relying on the strongest shield formed by the lightning armor on his body, Kaio directly withstood Kakuzu's full-power advanced Wind Release Ninjutsu.

"So, this is the Hidden Cloud's strongest shield? It truly is a terrifying defense that brings despair..."

Upon seeing Kaio remain completely unscathed despite being struck by the advanced Wind Release Ninjutsu from Kakuzu's masked creature, Kakuzu was astonished. Immediately, the Water Release masked creature on his back dove into the area where his heart had been shattered. In an instant, countless dark blood vessels wriggled, swiftly repairing the gaping hole in his body.

"So you've already replaced your original heart so quickly..."

Just as Kakuzu had just replaced the heart pierced by Kaio's attack, Yu's calm voice sounded from beside him, "But now, you no longer have the formidable defense of Earth Release Ninjutsu."

'Oh no!!'

Kakuzu hadn't expected Yu's speed to be so elusive. He had barely thought of turning around when he felt a sharp pain on his face.

Using Lightning Release Body Flicker to instantly appear beside him, Yu's foot, hardened with Armament Haki, ruthlessly stomped on his face.

Bang!!

Kakuzu's head, connected by countless dark blood vessel tentacles, was kicked by Yu, elongating it greatly. He was thrown out like a fully drawn arrow, breaking more than a dozen electric poles along the way, leaving a long trail on the ground.

"Damned brat, don't get cocky..."

Struggling to get up from the ground after being kicked in the face by Yu, Kakuzu, whose Earth Release Chakra Nature Transformation heart had been destroyed by Kaio, found himself severely injured by Yu's blow without the protection of Earth Release Ninjutsu.

With rage erupting within him, the Lightning Release masked creature on his back immediately opened its mouth, swiftly condensing a dazzling ball of lightning.

Boom!!

Just as the Lightning Release masked creature on Kakuzu's back was about to unleash a powerful Lightning Release Ninjutsu, time seemed to freeze at that moment.

In Kakuzu's suddenly widened eyes, he saw a beam of light, moving at incredible speed, seemingly slicing the air in half right before him, instantly piercing through the Lightning Release masked creature on his back.

Standing at the end of this beam of light, which cut through everything, was Yu, wielding the God-Killing Spear. With a speed dozens of times the speed of sound, Kakuzu didn't even have a chance to use Ninjutsu.

Crackle!!

Before Kakuzu could even react to the fact that he had lost another heart, Yu's released God-Killing Spear ruthlessly tore through him before turning into dust, leaving another gaping hole in his body.

"Aaaahhh!!!"

Countless dark blood vessel tentacles were severed by Yu, and even the resolute Kakuzu couldn't help but emit a roar of pain. His ghostly jade-green eyes gleamed fiercely, resembling an injured beast.

The remaining Wind Release masked creature and Fire Release masked creature on his back erupted with Chakra, preparing to unleash a powerful combined Ninjutsu of the two Nature Transformations to take revenge on Yu.

Super Pressure Cannon!!

Unfortunately, the Devil Puppet legion controlled by Yu using Parasitic Threads Manipulation didn't give Kakuzu a chance to counterattack. In a slight disturbance in the air, Tyrant, propelled by the abrupt movement of air, appeared directly in front of Kakuzu.

The enormous bear paw shockwave blasted like a hurricane, violently rupturing the entire ground. The incredibly powerful force sent Kakuzu flying violently into the air.

"It's over."

"You, who always boasted of having faced the God of Ninjas, are nothing more than a meaningless relic discarded by time."

With his gaze fixed on Kakuzu, who was sent flying ruthlessly by Tyrant in the distance, a voice that sounded like a light rebuke and a sigh of lamentation emanated from Yu's mouth. Just as he had finished unleashing the God-Killing Spear, the power of the Thread Fruit within him erupted once again.

God-Killing Spear: Nonstop Continuous Blade!!

The entire expanse of air before him seemed to shatter in an instant at Yu's command.

Countless beams of light, piercing through everything, continuously exploded at a speed dozens of times the speed of sound. Each terrifying beam possessed the power to sever all things.

This move was a technique that Yu had painstakingly trained over the past three years, capable of rapidly and continuously unleashing the God-Killing Spear to instantly pierce and pulverize opponents, turning them into dust.

Boom! Boom! Boom!!

The sounds of multiple shatterings reverberated simultaneously, filling the air.

Amidst the countless rays of light that severed everything, having multiple hearts was meaningless.

Kakuzu, who had been sent flying by Tyrant, was instantly blasted into pieces by Yu's rapid succession of God-Killing Spears, scattering across the ground.

"A bit of a pity..."

Watching Kakuzu being instantly pierced and shattered into pieces by his consecutive bursts of the God-Killing Spear in the distance, Yu sighed with some regret, "If only there were remains left behind, we could at least study the secrets of Earth Grudge Fear and this guy's longevity with five hearts."

Wait a moment... No, something's not right!!

Just as he was about to approach the shattered remains of Kakuzu to inspect them, Yu suddenly stopped in his tracks.

Because he saw that there was only an empty shell among Kakuzu's remains on the ground, and the masked creatures he had shattered only included Wind Release and Fire Release ones; the countless dark blood vessel tentacles of Earth Grudge Fear had disappeared without a trace!

"So you're Scarlet Yu? I'll remember you!!"

At this moment, Kakuzu's distinctive low voice, filled with resentment, sounded from afar and drew closer, "Four hearts! You owe me four hearts in total! The next time we meet, I will dig out your heart!!"
