Chapter 410: Earth Curse Seal State II (Patreon)

#Regular Chapter(2/2)

In the midst of the battle, Kimimaro and Hidan were unaware of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s plan, and they didn't anticipate that before the fight concluded, Nick Fury would be considering rounding them up.

At this moment, Kimimaro no longer held back and elevated himself directly to the second stage of the curse seal state.

Kimimaro underwent a transformation as well. Hard and massive bone spurs grew on his back, along with a tail covered in sharp thorns.

Watching Kimimaro's transformation, a smile appeared on Hidan's face. "The curse seal of Orochimaru, huh?"

"He really lives up to his reputation; the increase in power is truly formidable."

Currently, Kimimaro's aura had reached the level of an entry-level Kage-tier strength.

Without the influence of the blood-stained disease, he could perfectly unleash the power of his second-stage curse seal. The only regret was that he couldn't pull out his own spine to use his special moves.

"The third round of the contest officially begins!"

Kimimaro charged towards Hidan, and the bone sword in his hand had been replaced, now using the hardest bones as a spear for attacks.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

The constant sound of their clashes echoed, shaking the ground and causing the stones on the earth to tremble. Ripples appeared on the sea outside the barrier.

All of Kimimaro's attacks were parried by Hidan, who no longer found it as easy as at the beginning.

"Bone Pulse: Fern Dance!"

In the next moment, sharp bones emerged from the ground to attack Hidan. Their numbers were numerous, covering the entire ground of the barrier like a forest of white bones.

The path underfoot collapsed completely under Kimimaro's attack, shattering into pieces.

Hidan's body was pierced by the suddenly growing bones, and the scythe in his hand swept forward, smashing some bone spurs. However, the newly grown bone spurs once again covered him, enveloping him in thorns.

At this moment, Kimimaro leaped into the air. The Strongest Spear in his hand smashed down heavily, shattering the ground and bone spurs.

"Boom!"

After a massive roar, the bone spurs disappeared, and the path connecting S.H.I.E.L.D. and the outside world also vanished. Kimimaro, who fell down, was panting, standing on the surface of the sea.

At this point, Hidan lay on the surface of the sea, his clothes torn, and a large hole in his abdomen caused by Kimimaro's Strongest Spear.

Agent Coulson in the office showed a relaxed expression. "Kimimaro wins!"

Nick Fury nodded. "Truly terrifying strength; the destructive power of this physical body is too great."

"Get ready to collect our spoils!"

Right after Nick Fury's order, a ladder was immediately lowered from the S.H.I.E.L.D. helicopter, and a speedboat was also launched.

They were preparing to collect Hidan's body.

However, at this moment, Kimimaro showed no signs of relaxation. Without Chakra, how could Hidan's body float on the sea? Moreover, the wound on Hidan's abdomen was visibly healing at a rapid pace.

In just a short ten seconds, the wound on Hidan's abdomen completely healed. With his immortality, he paid no attention to the attacks he had just endured.

At this point, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s agents had already surrounded the barrier, waiting for it to open.

"Dead Bone Pulse: Ten-Finger Piercing Bullets!"

Kimimaro shot ten finger bones like bullets, but lying on the ground, Hidan twisted his body to avoid them.

"What a boring guy. He doesn't even know how to let Lord Hidan take a break!"

At this time, Hidan thought about why Itachi hadn't appeared yet.

Hidan stood up in the sea, holding the three-bladed scythe in his hand and pointing at Kimimaro.

Seeing Hidan become lively again, the SHIELD agents looked at each other, and then silently retreated into the distance.

Coulson in the office also shouted in disbelief: "Is he all right?"

"It seems that the ninja's ability to withstand hits and recover is beyond our imagination."

At this time, as S.H.I.E.L.D. agents continued to retreat, a person wearing S.H.I.E.L.D. uniform standing on the sea caught everyone's attention.

The captain on the speedboat shouted loudly, "Quickly retreat!"

"Captain, he's not one of us. He's standing on the sea."

"What? Standing on the sea?"

"Discovered, huh? Then there's no need to hide."

"Boom!"

As the smoke cleared, the external S.H.I.E.L.D. agent standing on the sea transformed into a man wearing a straw hat, black and red cloud-patterned robes – it was none other than Uchiha Itachi of Akatsuki.

Itachi's appearance immediately drew everyone's attention. The S.H.I.E.L.D., Sound Ninja Four, who were responsible for supporting the barrier, and Kimimaro and Hidan within the barrier also looked over.

"Hidan, the leader has a new mission for you. How long are you going to dawdle?"

As Itachi's voice reached them, Hidan turned his head and said:

"Didn't you see me trapped in the barrier? Hurry up and help!"

In the office, Nick Fury's expression turned grim as he observed the newly arrived Uchiha Itachi.

"Same attire. Could it be that the rogue ninjas have formed an organization?"

"Yes, Director... they really seem to be a group."

Just as Nick Fury analyzed the situation before him, Uchiha Itachi looked towards the Four Purple Flames Formation in front of him. In the next moment, his Mangekyō Sharingan activated.

"Amaterasu!"

The black, unquenchable flames ignited directly on the barrier wall of the Four Purple Flames Formation, quickly burning a large hole.

After releasing Amaterasu, Uchiha Itachi instinctively covered his right eye, only to find no expected bleeding tears and pain. He then lowered his hand and shifted his gaze towards Kimimaro within the formation.

Seeing Itachi's gaze, Kimimaro immediately lowered his head, shifting his eyes away, avoiding eye contact with Itachi.

Watching the Four Purple Flames Formation being burned through, Hidan laughed, "Haha, you little guys from the Hidden Sound village, Lord Hidan has urgent matters to attend to, so he won't play with you."

Turning around, Hidan quickly ran towards the damaged part of the barrier and appeared outside.

Seeing Hidan breaking out of the barrier, the Four Purple Flames Formation was cancelled.

With the cancellation of the formation, the burning black flames lost their target and dissipated. Following this, the four individuals appeared next to Kimimaro.

"Itachi, what are the leader's orders?"

Itachi glanced around, showing no interest in the five ninjas from the Hidden Sound Village.

"This isn't the place to talk. Let's go."

"Alright!"

With the Triple bladed scythe slung over his shoulder, Hidan and Itachi prepared to leave. It was evident that the leader's business was more important. As for the game of revenge plus exhibition match, it was over.
