Uchiha: Starting as the Jinchuriki of Tobirama Chapter 85 - 2: One Must Stay Behind as Bait for the Others

The Water Array Wall collided fiercely with the blazing fire, and thick mist churned in the air.

"Aomi!"

Asuma shouted Aomi’s na with delight, watching the figure standing in front of him. His body, paralyzed with tension, seed to awaken at that mont.

Aomi ignored Asuma, quickly forming hand seals: "Water Release: Hidden Mist Jutsu!"

In an instant, thick fog enveloped the valley, leaving only a vast expanse of white mist.

"Run, Asuma!"

Aomi suddenly turned around, the red glow of the Sharingan faintly visible in the fog, his tone exceptionally serious: "The enemy’s chakra is incredibly strong, we can’t handle this opponent!"

Imdiately, Aomi took a swift step, effortlessly picking up the trembling Tsunade from the ground, and said in a deep voice: "The Hidden Mist Jutsu can only delay him for a mont, we need to prepare to escape!"

"Get a grip, you and Rin run first, I’ll cover the rear for you!"

Asuma stared blankly at Aomi, seemingly lost.

Nohara Rin was the sa, unable to adapt to the sudden change in a short ti.

For two Genin, encountering a bloodthirsty Kage Level enemy on their first mission outside the village was too much of a shock.

Even Naruto and Sasuke, with the protagonist aura, had a capable Kakashi by their side, and their enemy was the Elite Jonin Zabuza, not a Kage Level monster like Kakuzu...

"What are you waiting for, death?"

Aomi rarely uttered harsh words: "You can’t carry Tsunade-sensei while traveling, nor can you stop the enemy in front of us. Every mont of hesitation decreases our chance of survival!

"Run now! We’ll et later in the pine forest we passed through!"

Finally, under Aomi’s reprimand, Asuma and Nohara Rin began to move, desperately urging their stiff bodies to run out of the valley...

And in Aomi’s arms, Tsunade seed to slowly regain consciousness within the strong embrace, the trembling of her body gradually easing, though she couldn’t return to normal.

Powerlessness and sha welled up in Tsunade’s heart; she had intended to shield this talented student from harm, but now she had beco a burden...

"Wind Release: Suppression!"

The terrifying hurricane attacked again, the mist in the valley dissipating instantly under the strong wind.

Kakuzu, with eyes glowing dark green, stared at Aomi like a vulture, grinning nastily: "Brat, you, Tsunade, and that Son of the Hokage can’t escape..."

"The three of you combined are worth about 100 million Ryo, I won’t let you escape!"

Kakuzu suddenly reached out, his wrist firing towards Aomi like a cannonball!

Blessed by Earth Grudge Fear, Kakuzu’s body parts could act independently, attacking at will!

Aomi thrust his hands upward, catching Tsunade on his shoulder, the Sharingan’s tomoe flickered, precisely dodging the cannonball-like punch, as Muramasa flashed, neatly severing the black threads connecting the fist!

Kakuzu looked at the three spinning tomoe in Aomi’s eyes, montarily stunned.

Three-Tomoe Uchiha?

But imdiately, excitent surged in Kakuzu’s heart!

If Aomi had revealed a pair of Mangekyo Sharingan, Kakuzu would have considered himself unlucky today; fighting a crazed Uchiha who activated Mangekyo would have unpredictable results...

If an Uchiha of the clan lost control after activating the Mangekyo, even a minor scuffle could provoke them to summon Susanoo at the cost of blindness, just to kill the enemy before them!

But if it was just the Three-Tomoe, Kakuzu had no fear, instead feeling the necessity to hunt Aomi heightened again!

A set of Three-Tomoe Sharingan, how much would that sell for?

In the black market, it was a priceless commodity, even more valuable than Asuma, the Son of the Hokage’s head...

Aomi coldly glanced at Kakuzu, his ocular power releasing towards him at that mont!

Kakuzu snorted coldly, forming hand seals, the black threads within his body roiled, transmitting chakra in utter chaos...

For a creature with his type of body, the chanism of Genjutsu disrupting chakra flow was ineffective.

Unless the level of ocular power or the Genjutsu caster vastly surpassed his...

But what Kakuzu didn’t expect was, Aomi rely posed a false attack, without unleashing any Dojutsu, and instead turned to flee with Tsunade on his back.

Even carrying soone, Aomi’s figure was ghost-like, frighteningly swift.

"Cunning brat!"

Kakuzu cursed angrily, chakra gathering at his feet as he fiercely pursued!

But along his pursuit path, Aomi intermittently released mist, hindering his pace.

Kakuzu grew more furious as well as calr.

"If this brat intends to flee with Tsunade, and sprints towards the Land of Fire’s center, I might truly be unable to catch him..."

Kakuzu thought as he used Wind Release once again to dispel the mist before him, coldly sneering:

"But the remaining two kids lack capability, and one is the Son of the Hokage, I don’t believe an Uchiha would dare to abandon the Hokage’s child and return to the village, better let kill him then..."

Betrayed by the higher-ups of Hidden Waterfall Village, Kakuzu deeply understood the true faces of these Hidden Villages’ leaders.
