Sakura hastily bandaged her left arm and found two wooden planks to fix the broken bone. Only then did she let out a sigh of relief. Exhaustion flooded her like a tidal wave, slowly drowning the sober reef.
"Pa pa pa!"
Sakura slapped her cheeks hard, causing her face to turn red. She then pinched her arm hard, leaving a thin line of blood. Using the stimulation from the pain, she suppressed her drowsiness.
"Sakura, you can't relax, now is not the time. If you admit defeat now, you will never be able to catch up with Sasuke and Naruto!" Sakura muttered softly as she waved her right hand, cheering herself on. She then chased after Haku's figure in the sky.
The thin Floating Sky Mirror was suspended in the sky, and Haku stood on top of it, looking down at the destroyed forest below.
"Hmm … Sakura has already killed that monster?" Haku looked down from above, and his vision became extremely wide. While suppressing the monster that used water release, he was also paying attention to Sakura's battle.
The result was beautiful, Sakura's performance was amazing. Her courage and determination were so strong that Haku almost couldn't help but give her a high five.
"She is indeed worthy of being Hokage-sama's disciple. Well, it seems that I have to make some achievements too. If Aoyama sama finds out that I am inferior to her, he will be angry!" Haku's eyes became sharp as he stared at the green-patterned masked monster that was running around in the forest below. He wouldn't hesitate to kill such a non-human thing.
"Eh, trying to escape?" Haku was surprised to find that the monster in the forest below had stopped attacking and was running towards the river valley.
"Do you think you can escape? If I let you escape, Root's reputation will be lost, and I won't be able to face Aoyama sama anymore … "Haku's lips curled up slightly as he quickly formed a seal with one hand." Ice Release: Swallow Snow. "
Heavy snow that would only appear during the winter, accompanied by the biting cold north wind that shook the forest. In just a blink of an eye, the ground was covered with snow, and the grass was covered with frost.
The green-patterned masked monster was indeed worthy of being called a monster. Even the extreme cold couldn't stop its movement. Although its agility was greatly reduced, it persevered and tried to escape from the snowfield.
A thin Floating Ice Mirror was formed in mid-air. Bai leaped around quickly and soon caught up with the slow-moving monster. He looked down at the ugly monster.
"Stop struggling, you can't escape. Ice Release: Ice Breaking White Tiger." Haku looked at the green-patterned masked monster coldly. Haku, it was extremely ugly, he had never seen anything as disgusting as this monster....
White flashes of light fell, and the Frost Tiger pounced forward ferociously, tearing at the prey that did not dodge in time. The third tentacle monster was beheaded. The ice completely froze it, turning it into a huge lump of ice. Then, with a crack, it shattered into shards of silver ice, dancing under the sunlight.
The Floating Sky Ice Mirror was arranged in a stair shape, and Haku jumped back to the ground and faced Sakura who was looking for him.
"Sakura, is your arm alright?" Haku looked at Sakura's arm that was bandaged.
"It's fine, it's just a fracture. I have already done emergency measures, is the battle over here over?" Sakura looked at the vast white forest and asked casually, but she already had an answer in her heart.
"It's settled, if you can't hold on anymore, you can rest here, I will go and support Chiyo." Haku said with concern.
"No need, let's go together. I am clear about my own injuries, but I indeed don't have much battle strength left, but my medical ninjutsu might be of use …" Sakura didn't say it clearly, but Haku understood what she meant. After all, Chiyo was too old, and she wasn't clear about her current situation.
Haku nodded his head and didn't say anything anymore. Sakura's medical ninjutsu was much stronger than his, and since Sakura said that there was no problem, then at the very least, there shouldn't be any big problems.
"Let's go! While I still have strength … "Haku tapped on the ground with the tip of his foot and used Shunpo to quickly dash out. The power of the Curse of the Moon wasn't limitless, and he had to completely end the battle with Kakuzu before the power of the Curse of the Moon weakened.
The surroundings of the valley had been completely destroyed, and the aftermath of the battle between the two top-notch experts was enough to change the terrain of the region. Especially Kakuzu's Earth Style and Fire Style, the transformation of the terrain could be said to be great. Chiyo's Puppet Technique was slightly lacking in this aspect, its killing power was sufficient, but its destructive power was lacking.
"Scoundrel, how is this possible, those two stinking brats actually destroyed three of my hearts … Damn it, damn it!" Kakuzu's mood was gloomy to the extreme right now. When the Lightning Style monster was killed, he had already controlled the Water Style monster to retreat, but it was clear that the Water Style monster wasn't able to escape and was annihilated very quickly.
With three of his five hearts destroyed, Kakuzu was really in a sorry state right now. The last time he was in such a miserable state was three years ago when he fought against Orochi Maru.
However, with age comes wisdom, Kakuzu had long become an extremely cunning monster. Controlling the anger in his heart, Kakuzu began to ponder about what he should do. The old woman in front of him was far more difficult to deal with than he expected, she isn't an opponent that he can take down in a short period of time. I wonder how the two brats are doing, to destroy three of my hearts, they should at least pay a price!
If the two brats lose their fighting power, then I will have a chance of winning this battle. The old woman's strength is already declining, I can feel it, it is just that the puppet technique's uniqueness makes the process of weakening a lot longer.
However, if the two brats still retain a certain amount of fighting power, then I will have another choice. I regard money as my life, but I won't throw my life away for money. When it is time to retreat, I will retreat.
"Seems like Sakura and the others are doing quite well."
Kakuzu was very cunning, but how could Chiyo Popo, the consultant of the Sand Crypsis Village, be simple? Her eyesight that was sharpened through the battles of blood and flesh splattered everywhere and politics did not deteriorate, instead, it became sharper as she grew older.
During the time when Kakuzu was pondering, there was a slight change in the strength of his attack, and it was noticed by Chiyo Popo. Through Kakuzu's silence, Chiyo Popo had a lot of conjectures. The battle on Sakura's side must have come to an end, and this end result is obviously not good news for Kakuzu …
"Haha, seems like this rotten old woman needs to put in some effort …" Grandma Chiyo's half closed eyes suddenly opened wide. Her ten fingers danced about at lightning speed, and the puppets also started moving along with her movements.
"What is this old woman trying to do?" Kakuzu narrowed his eyes. Originally, Chiyo Popo was defending passively, but now, she actually took the initiative to attack. Did she notice it? Or does she have some method to communicate with the two brats?
