Uzushigakure, Soul Society Court.
The black threads wrapped around Kakuzu suddenly broke.
Revealing his current appearance.
Kakuzu lowered his head, staring incredulously at his chest.
A void slowly expanded.
His body was like ashes, dissipating little by little.
He desperately manipulated the black threads, trying to mend his wound.
But no matter how hard he tried, it was useless.
The range of the void in the air was still spreading.
The black lines attempting to approach the void were instantly reduced to ash upon contact.
His entire person was in a state of dissolution.
This felt completely different from being pierced by that blade earlier.
This time, he truly felt the threat of death.
Even though he still had three hearts inside his body.
Even though he still had two chances to make a mistake.
But this time was clearly different.
He will die! He will really die!!
It wasn't just the dissolution of his body.
Even his cells were dissolving.
Under these circumstances, even if he had eight hearts, it would be impossible for him to survive.
He wanted to do something to salvage the current situation.
But the spread of the void gave him no opportunity.
Soon, only his feet and head remained of his body.
Kakuzu's eyes trembled, filled with the fear of death, and he regretted accepting the mission in the Uzushigakure.
Who could have thought that the Uzushigakure actually had someone with such an unreasonable ability?
"It seems I'll be buried here today."
Kakuzu's eyes became vacant.
This mission in the Uzushigakure taught him a profound lesson.
It made him realize that some money can be earned, and some cannot.
High rewards come with high risks.
But he no longer had the chance to put this lesson into practice.
However, if given another chance, he would probably still choose to accept the mission.
After all, the only thing he could trust now was money.
If he didn't make money, he didn't know what meaning his life held anymore.
He had saved up so much money, and now he wondered who would benefit from it in the end.
Kakuzu used his last remaining eyes to look at Gin's back.
This man is truly confident.
After stabbing him with that blade, had he already completely sealed his doom?
Heh... but that was indeed the case.
projection hell butterfly.
Sarutobi Hiruzen was deeply shaken.
Through the previous battle between Gin and Kakuzu, he understood Kakuzu's Secret Technique of Immortality.
As long as one of those masks was shattered, Kakuzu would die once.
If calculated this way, Kakuzu should still have three lives remaining.
But why?
Did Kakuzu suddenly turn into this state?
It was as if his entire body had become ashes burned away, slowly dissipating.
Clearly, Gin's attack was the same as before; no change was observed.
But how did it turn out like this?
Could this be his true ability?
Does the body of anyone pierced by that blade dissolve like Kakuzu's?
This ability is simply a guaranteed Instant Kill!
Once hit, even Immortality cannot save them from disaster!
After all, even the body was dissolved.
How could he still live?
At this moment, Gin's danger level in Sarutobi Hiruzen's mind rose again!
Moreover, a trace of fear arose toward him.
This kind of ability is too unsolvable, isn't it?!
Fast speed, and an Instant Kill?!
Hiss—
Calm down!
This ability must have some restriction!
Otherwise, why didn't Gin use such a useful ability from the start?
Therefore, it must have some kind of restriction.
As long as its restriction is found, this Move can definitely be countered!
But since he hadn't found his weakness yet, it was better not to act rashly.
Konoha must continue to endure!
Land of Wind, Sunagakure.
The Third Kazekage's eyes were profound.
"...Instant Kill?"
Can even Immortality be killed in one strike? The Third Kazekage carefully observed the manner of Kakuzu's death in the projection screen.
If viewed according to his normal assumptions,
