With Mizuki's attainments in the Five Elements Ninjutsu, it would be a simple matter to make Kakuzu's Ninjutsu more powerful, especially in the field of Fire Ninjutsu which he was best at.
If Mizuki didn't want to easily arouse suspicion from the guys in the Akatsuki organization, he would have even planned to let Kakuzu use even more terrifying ninjutsu.
Mizuki's Five Elements escape technique strength is not on the same level as Kakuzu's.
Being well-informed but not deeply-rooted is the true portrayal of Kakuzu. Fortunately, he has an immortal body, making it difficult for people to guess what he is doing. His five lives are enough to kill many masters who are unaware of the truth.
In the Akatsuki organization, Kakuzu and Hidan are the ones who rely most on keeping their own secrets. If their characteristics are leaked, they will be the ones targeted the most.
And now, after the new Kakuzu derived from Mizuki's will has adapted to the body, the secret technique - Earth Grudge can be controlled with ease.
With Mizuki's superb ninjutsu skills, the combined power of the five heart-attribute monsters is no longer comparable to Kakuzu's simple wits.
"Since I'm here to cause trouble for the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, I'm naturally prepared to encounter strong enemies. Although the Fifth Mizukage Mei Terumi and Uchiha Sasuke are a bit troublesome, I'm not a weakling either."
"Really? It looks like you've made a lot of progress recently, so that's the best. But I hope you're not just bragging. If you get into trouble, I may not come to save you."
Although Kakuzu is very strong, even if we ignore the fact that he has five lives, his immortal body without any weaknesses makes him difficult to kill, and the physical strength and chakra of ordinary ninjas are limited.
Perhaps in terms of absolute strength, the Fifth Mizukage Mei Terumi and Uchiha Sasuke are stronger than Kaku, but victory or defeat is not determined that way. Strength in numbers is not always an advantage, but may just be a burden.
"Protect yourself, you cunning fellow."
Kakuzu released four heart-attribute monsters and then slowly walked forward.
"Perhaps a fragile guy like you will be caught by the enemy..."
"enemy?"
Black Zetsu smiled strangely.
"Compared to those guys on the other side, I'm more afraid of you. It's really strange. Logically, we are comrades-in-arms..."
Given Black Zetsu's caution, the corner should not pose a threat to him, but the fact is so strange that the fatal sense of crisis in Black Zetsu's heart never subsides for a moment.
That's why Black Zetsu, who came with Kakuzu, was so uneasy.
"We are not a serious organization, and there has never been any comradeship between us. You'd better not misunderstand us."
"Yeah, that makes sense, but why did you join the organization in the first place?"
"Your brain is broken."
Kakuzu turned his head with disdain and faced a group of messy enemies in the distance.
Many years ago, Kakuzu, who was working as a bounty hunter, was defeated and forced to stay in the Akatsuki organization due to the power of his leader and the legendary Rinnegan of the Six Paths Sage.
But later on, he thought that continuing wouldn't be a bad idea. At least being in charge of the organization's financial flow was something Kakuzu was indeed interested in.
But now, all these foundations no longer exist.
If Mizuki had not used illusion to replace Kakuzu's will, it is hard to say whether this old guy who has lived for so many years would obey Uchiha Obito's orders and participate in the Fourth Ninja World War.
Compared to a fruitless war, tracking down Konan and taking back the large amount of money from the organization might be more of a concern for Kakuzu.
"Since you are so confident, I will just watch you perform. Just take care of yourself!"
After Black Zetsu finished speaking, his body slowly sank and then disappeared. Even with the perception that had been extremely enhanced by Mizuki's spirit, no trace of Black Zetsu was found.
"He is indeed a difficult guy to guess. This is not a simple earth escape, but a Yin-Yang escape! It is really too troublesome."
Unless this guy reveals his true colors himself, it is basically impossible to completely eliminate him.
As for something as mysterious as the earth veins, to be honest, Shuimu still cannot fully understand its principles. As for how to use them, he has not found any clues.
It is also possible that only those who have mastered some of the mysteries of the things derived from the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki can understand how to use the power of these things.
But there is no point in saying this now. Mizuki has studied many power systems and has enough foundation and combination methods to reach the end of the power in the ninja world. There is no need to open up another path.
Now that the fight has begun, there is no reason to give up halfway. Although the enemy is unexpectedly strong, Shuimu did not retreat, although he did not really want to kill the opponent.
But he had to continue his identity as a spy and obey Uchiha Obito's orders.
Moreover, this is also a good opportunity to test the power of the Fifth Mizukage Mei Terumi and Uchiha Sasuke, especially Uchiha Sasuke's eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.
The war is imminent, and Mizuki needs to be concerned about how strong the key figure who is said to decide the fate of the ninja world is.
It would be troublesome if the butterfly effect caused by your actions caused the most important link to go wrong.
"With one of the current Five Kage as his opponent, and a pair of eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, even though his real body is not here, it should be enough for this body!"
The good news is that Jiaodu has a solid foundation in the Five Elements Escape Technique. With such conditions, it will be much easier than imagined to develop stronger power again.
The use of the power of heart-attributed monsters as the basis for performing ninjutsu places much fewer restrictions on the body, which is just right for Mizuki's power mode, which is mainly driven by mental strength and supplemented by physical qualifications.
"Fire Style: Head Hard Work!"
"Wind Style: Suppress!"
The two were originally only at the level of B-level ninjutsu, but with the addition of Mizuki's excellent understanding of chakra property changes, although they have not yet reached the level of S-level ninjutsu, the superposition and enhancement of ninjutsu power not only has bloodline limits, but also fusion ninjutsu.
The properties of chakras change, and there are also effects of mutual generation and mutual restraint.
The wind helps the fire. The combined power of these two powerful ninjutsu far exceeds the power of the two ninjutsu combined.
Under the influence of the wind tornado, the originally spreading sea of fire turned into more than ten roaring fire dragons, rushing towards the water escape technique, water array wall, which had not yet dissipated.
"Even if water jutsu can restrain fire jutsu, the power of combined ninjutsu is not so easy to resist."
Mizuki didn't know whether Harakaku could use such a joint ninjutsu, but at least the power of the Five Elements Ninjutsu was not as powerful as Mizuki's.
Faced with such an attack, the faces of the Fire Nation people hiding in the rear changed drastically. This horrible scene, like a natural disaster, was really unbearable.
Even for a ninja, he may not be able to see many super advanced ninjutsu in his lifetime, let alone ordinary people who have not seen much of the world.
And Mei Terumi, who was protecting the Daimyo of the Land of Fire nearby, also changed her expression.
"Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet."
The previous defensive water jutsu had not been removed yet, and the second powerful water jutsu began to take shape. A large stream of water was spewed out of Mei Terumi's mouth, gathering into more than ten water dragons, which collided with the roaring fire dragon.
Although the name of this advanced water jutsu is Water Dragon Bullet, its power is completely incomparable to the B-level water jutsu: Water Dragon Bullet.
First, inject a huge amount of chakra into the water, and then condense the water into a dragon form to attack the opponent. Although the principle is just a few words, every word of it is true. It can defend against Uchiha Madara and also repel him and Susanoo with its super strong water jutsu. It is not an ordinary low-level water jutsu.
"Here it comes, it's really powerful."
The attack power of water-attribute chakra is not as strong as wind-style chakra, but when it really exerts its maximum power, it can best bring out the advantage of its large amount of chakra, especially on the battlefield. Water-style map cannon is sometimes much more useful than earth-style chakra and fire-style chakra.
More than ten water dragons circled around the water column array and then collided head-on with the roaring fire dragon.
Because it was not the Kekkei Genkai - Scorch Release, although the power of Wind Release and Fire Release were combined, the flames were quickly offset by the water dragon.
"It's not that simple, naive!"
Kakuzu sneered and watched the situation develop.
As expected, the weakness of Water Style's softness and its poor defensive ability against elements other than Fire Style was fully exposed.
The swirling wind defeated the water dragon, breaking it into countless small splashes of water. These defeated water particles collided with the high temperature power of the flames and were quickly evaporated. The power that erupted was simply terrifying.
A huge roar spread in all directions with a terrifying shock wave. The first to be hit was the Water Style: Water Array Wall. After withstanding several waves of powerful attacks in succession, it finally collapsed.
"Is that the extent of it?"
Kakuzu was a little disappointed. Although such a powerful ninjutsu was indeed surprising, it was not possible to defeat Uchiha Madara with just this level of skill.
"Sure enough, the so-called Five Kage still don't stand much chance of winning against Uchiha Madara's Impure World Form."
It’s not that Kakuzu underestimated the strength of the Fifth Mizukage Mei Terumi, but that Mizuki understood that the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki was too powerful.
"The Five Kage are not reliable. When the battle comes, they will be useless. At most, they can help the Child of Destiny when the battle is not going well."
Tsunade's medical ninjutsu plays a huge role in the war, but the big bosses behind the scenes are all immortal guys, and they are very powerful. Basically, one move can take a person's life. How can there be a chance to save people?
At that time, it would be more effective than Uzumaki Naruto's Yang Release after he received the power of the Six Paths.
In Mizuki's opinion, only the bloodline of the Third Tsuchikage - Ohnoki - the Dust Release: Original World Separation Technique might be of some use. As for the other four Kage, it would be better for them to provide assistance from the side.
Kakuzu was sighing with emotion as he watched the combined ninjutsu he performed break the water-style defense of the Fifth Mizukage Terumi Mei in one fell swoop. However, his attack was at its weakest and had no power to penetrate the water. After numerous blockades, the combined ninjutsu performed by Kakuzu was reduced to nothing more than a gust of wind that blew the Fire Country's Daimyo toppling over.
Without the high temperature of Fire Style and the sharpness of Wind Style, the damage is much smaller.
Next, Kakuzu wanted to test the Fifth Mizukage Mei Terumi again, especially the strength of Uchiha Sasuke, but at this time, the arrogant and strong-willed queen could not wait to launch a counterattack.
"Boiling Release: Skillful Mist Technique."
In the nick of time, the raging wind gradually died down, and a large cloud of boiling mist came out of Terumi Mei's mouth and headed towards the direction of the enemy's attack.
While preparing for the next move, Kakuzu's real body and the four heart monsters, who had not yet made a move, were about to be affected.
"What a fast speed! Can the corrosive acid mist spread so quickly?"
Perhaps becoming the Kage of the five major ninja villages is not completely useless.
"It's a bloodline limit after all, a powerful ninjutsu that can directly corrode Susanoo, so don't be too arrogant. Water Style: Water Prison Jutsu."
This high-temperature corrosive acid mist is indeed a headache. The general earth escape defense method is not very effective. It would be better to use water escape, which would be more effective.
The water-attribute chakra heart monster, which consumed a large amount of chakra, spit out a large amount of water, forming an extremely large water prison, protecting Kakuzu himself and the four attribute heart monsters in the hollow water prison.
After the highly corrosive acid mist spread to the water prison, the two things, which had the same properties, quickly stuck together. The high temperature gradually subsided, and the corrosive effect could no longer fall on Kakuzu and the heart monster.
Although if Mei Terumi continued to increase the power of the Boiling Style: Misty Technique, she might be able to boil Kakuzu into a pot of soup, but Terumi was sure that she would not do such a foolish thing that would yield half the result with twice the effort and be thankless, because Kakuzu was not a weakling who would sit there and wait to die.
"The attack power of water jutsu is so awkward. Its ability to directly break through is too poor. Even the bloodline limit - boiling jutsu, still can't change this deficiency. If it was wind jutsu or lightning jutsu, it would have been directly penetrated long ago."
The five elements of escape techniques each have their own advantages, and strong attack is indeed not the specialty of water escape technique.
"Next, let me let you move around a bit... Oh, this is not good..."
Before Kakuzu, who had just felt an inexplicable and terrifying threat, could react, a swift ray of light flashed across, penetrating the seemingly soft but actually quite resilient water prison, and hit Kakuzu's right arm. The huge destructive force directly broke the entire right arm.
"Indra's Arrow, have you become so proficient in using Susanoo?"
Kakuzu looked at his empty right arm with some disbelief. Just as he felt the power of Susanoo burst out, Indra's arrow almost killed him.
This time, it wasn't just Uchiha Sasuke's Susanoo that missed the target with Indra's arrow.
The refractive property of water itself is one aspect, but the key is that the defensive water style, Water Prison Technique, used by Mizuki is not static, but rotates under control like a gyroscope. When Indra's arrow passed through the Water Prison Technique, it was disturbed by this difficult-to-observe force, which saved Kakuzu's life.
