Capítulo 375: Chapter 375: Kakuzu Defeated! The Whitebeard Pirates Prefer to Use Force.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Three figures moved swiftly through the misty forest of the Land of Water, led by the demon Zabuza, who ultimately chose not to defect from Kirigakure Village.
After all, the Fourth Mizukage, who had dragged the entire Kirigakure Village into the blood mist, was dead, and the mastermind behind him was also dead...
He had no reason to defect anymore.
Moreover, Zabuza actually had quite a bit of affection for Kirigakure Village.
Otherwise, according to the original world trajectory, he wouldn't have tried to assassinate the Fourth Mizukage.
Now, Zabuza had no choice but to stay in Kirigakure Village.
Because Kirigakure Village was severely lacking in manpower.
Even if he wanted to leave Kirigakure Village and become a wandering ninja, Terumi Mei wouldn't let him go.
He even said to him, "Zabuza, you don't want Kirigakure Village to keep declining, do you? At such a critical moment, are you going to abandon the village? Are you going to choose to be an irresponsible man?"
Currently, he is in charge of Kirigakure Village's Anbu, serving as the captain of Kirigakure Anbu.
But just as his body was about to be sent flying, Marco's wing turned back into an arm, and he grabbed Kakuzu's forearm.
"Two streets have been leveled..." Zabuza squinted his eyes. Such astonishing destructive power was indeed not that of an ordinary ninja.
As the three Kirigakure Anbu entered the town ahead, they immediately noticed the commotion coming from a certain place.
He said, "Follow me!"
He looked ahead into the distance.
Visible ripples of wind were surging towards them!
Kakuzu's chest visibly caved in, and another mouthful of crimson blood sprayed out through his mask.
The terrifying wind blew, bending a grove of towering trees.
They were definitely formidable opponents!
Just as he was becoming more vigilant, he suddenly noticed something unusual ahead.
But before Kakuzu could catch his breath, a figure wrapped in blue flames closed in within a blink of an eye.
Only one of the Earth Grudge Fear masks was left floating behind Kakuzu.
With just a simple strike, Kakuzu felt as if he had been punched heavily by a burly tailed beast.
Marco didn't even use any special moves, just a simple diving kick that instantly landed on Kakuzu's chest!
"Hah... cough, cough! Truly... a monster..."
Zabuza glanced at his two subordinates with lowered eyes.
Zabuza quickly jumped to the top of a tall tree.
No matter how powerful the opponent was, as members of Kirigakure Village's Anbu, they had to stop them and prevent further destruction.
At this moment, one of Zabuza's subordinates immediately said, Zabuza-sama, we're two kilometers from the destination!"
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Zabuza and the others watched as the figure crashed through several walls and houses, finally landing heavily inside a building.
It was as if he had lost three lives out of his nine.
If this got out... Zabuza would be ashamed enough to commit seppuku.
Marco forcibly pulled Kakuzu back, pinned him to the ground, and stepped on his head.
Then, a bloodied hand pushed aside the rubble and staggered out of the collapsed building.
The two Anbu subordinates behind him said in unison, "Yes, Zabuza-sama!"
Zabuza's pupils contracted, and he immediately raised his hands in front of him, steadying his feet.
For a ninja sprinting at full speed, a distance of two kilometers could be covered quickly.
Before long, the three of them saw a cluster of buildings ahead, and they could vaguely see the mess in the town.
According to the information, the troublesome unknown ninja seemed very powerful, so Zabuza chose to handle it personally.
Two kilometers, huh?
"Zabuza-sama, over there!" a subordinate reminded.
Standing on Kakuzu's head in a one-legged stance.
The remaining three Earth Grudge Fear masks fell along with the breaking of three hearts.
And so... Zabuza stayed.
But before Zabuza could run over, he saw a battered figure flying towards him.
He was now quickly moving through the forest with two subordinates because Kirigakure Village had received information about ninjas causing trouble in a nearby town.
Zabuza said in a deep voice, "Be careful, the enemy is not yet clear. When we reach the town, observe them from the shadows first."
"A Wind Release ninja?!" Zabuza took a deep breath, "The range of this Ninjutsu is so wide?!"
He could stand steadily on the tree, but his two subordinates behind him fell down awkwardly.
"Your body is so strange! You've been severely injured several times, a normal person would have died many times over, but you're still alive."
If there were ninjas causing havoc in the Land of Water, and the Kirigakure Anbu just stood by and watched.
Marco, being the ship doctor of the Whitebeard Pirates, found this ninja's body structure a bit beyond common sense.
This also made Marco a bit interested in Kakuzu's body.
Kakuzu's battered appearance contrasted sharply with Marco's unharmed state.
At first glance, it was a completely one-sided battle.
Even though Marco voluntarily revealed his Devil Fruit ability information to Kakuzu.
Kakuzu still couldn't cause any substantial harm to Marco.
"Hah... Hah..." Kakuzu spat blood and panted heavily, feeling more powerless than ever.
No matter how many trump cards he used, he couldn't harm this pineapple head at all.
But this pineapple head could casually strike and make him lose a heart.
And Zabuza and the others witnessed the whole scene.
"Zabuza-sama, the masked man on the ground... seems to be the most famous bounty hunter in the ninja world's black market, and also the S-rank rogue ninja from Takigakure Village, Kakuzu!!!"
A Kirigakure Village Anbu ninja recognized Kakuzu, as he was well-known throughout the ninja world.
Zabuza nodded.
But his gaze never fell on Kakuzu.
In his eyes, a defeated loser, no matter how glorious they once were, wasn't worth his attention.
His eyes were all focused on Marco. "This man... is very dangerous..."
Every cell in Zabuza's body was warning him that Marco was very dangerous, and the inexplicable feeling of his hair standing on end made him extremely cautious.
"Oh? Are you three his companions?" At this moment, Marco looked over curiously.
Zabuza frowned, "We are Kirigakure Anbu, not with him."
Just as he was about to question Marco's identity, a familiar voice reached Zabuza's ears.
"Demon Zabuza, haha! Long time no see! Even with the Anbu mask, I can recognize you at a glance! I thought someone like you wouldn't stay in the village, but you did. Haku often talks about you on the Moby Dick!"
Kisame and Smoothie walked over, with Smoothie holding an unconscious Deidara in her hand.
The sudden voice made Zabuza quickly look in the direction of the sound.
Zabuza was immediately stunned.
"Hoshigaki Kisame?"
...
"This is Kumogakure Village." Uzumaki Fuushi said with a sarcastic smile. She had no good feelings towards Kumogakure Village.
Because the destruction of Uzushiogakure was closely related to Kumogakure, and Kumogakure was one of the biggest culprits.
The reason she volunteered to go to Kumogakure Village was naturally to collect the "protection fee" that Kumogakure Village had owed the Whitebeard Pirates for more than a year!
As long as collecting the protection fee could make everyone in Kumogakure Village feel humiliated, Uzumaki Fuushi would feel much better. In a way, it was also a form of revenge for Uzushiogakure.
Although she couldn't destroy Kumogakure Village, she could make Kumogakure Village bleed continuously.
Uzumaki Fuushi was happy to see Kumogakure Village suffer.
"What a strange village, building it at such a high place. If it were another one or two thousand meters higher, it would probably reach Sky Island!" Vista said with a grin.
He stood to the right of Uzumaki Fuushi, like a bodyguard.
"You're overthinking it. There's no Sky Island in this world; that's a unique feature of the sea." On the left, Katakuri's cold voice came.
Yes, the three people who came to Kumogakure Village were Uzumaki Fuushi, Katakuri, and Vista.
At this moment, the three of them were standing in front of the gate of Kumogakure Village.
The two Kumogakure ninjas guarding the gate were sweating profusely.
Originally, there were three guards, but one had already run back to report.
"Who are you three?!" One of the gate-guarding ninjas swallowed nervously and couldn't help but question the three.
But his tone was not very firm.
After all, the heights of Katakuri and Vista were quite intimidating.
Vista's height of over three meters was barely acceptable, as some people with gigantism could reach that height.
But Katakuri next to him was exaggerated, standing over five meters tall, like a two-story building.
With only half of his face exposed, covered in cold sternness, just standing there, Katakuri gave the Kumogakure ninjas an invisible sense of oppression.
Compared to the smiling Vista beside him, Katakuri's aura indeed gave off a feeling of "stay away from me."
"Who are we? Haha!" Vista introduced himself with a smile, "I am Vista, the captain of the 5th division of the Whitebeard Pirates! I heard that your Kumogakure Village hasn't paid us 'protection fees' for over a year!"
The two nervous gatekeeping ninjas were shocked: "!!!"
Whitebeard Pirates?
Captain of the 5th division?
Their faces were filled with disbelief.
How could it be!
The Whitebeard Pirates, who had been missing for over a year, suddenly returned?
And now, the Whitebeard Pirates were here again?
Meanwhile, in the Raikage's office.
"Raikage-sama! There are three very strange people outside the village! Ah, no... it's a very normal woman and two very strange men!" The gatekeeping ninja who first ran back to report had already reached the Fourth Raikage, A.
A frowned, a bit displeased, "Do you need to come to me for such a small matter? If they are suspicious, don't let them into the village. If they insist on entering, take them down."
The Raikage had been very busy recently, with so many things in the village, he couldn't handle everything himself, right?
Why did they even need to notify him about guarding the gate?
"It's not that... Raikage-sama, those two strange men, they look as tall as Whitebeard! Uh... maybe not as tall as Whitebeard, but they are still ridiculously tall!"
The gatekeeping ninja hurriedly continued, "I suspect they might be related to the Whitebeard Pirates who have been missing for over a year, so I quickly came back to report to you, Raikage-sama."
Hearing this, A's frown deepened.
Three people possibly related to the Whitebeard Pirates?!
Now, A couldn't sit still.
Whether they were really related to the Whitebeard Pirates or not, even if... there was just a small possibility, he had to go and see for himself.
Recalling Whitebeard's terrifying power, A felt a faint pain all over his body.
Especially his arm...
It had been crippled in the battle with Whitebeard.
Now he was in a one-armed state.
"Yo! I heard everything, yo, I'll go with you, big brother, yo!" Suddenly, a voice came from one side of the office, it was Killer Bee.
Now, Killer Bee no longer needed to hide because he was no longer a dangerous Jinchuriki. So...
The Fourth Raikage "A" and the former Eight-Tails Jinchuriki of Kumogakure Village "Killer Bee" headed to the gate of Kumogakure together.
Swish!
Swish!
The two strongest fighters of Kumogakure instantly appeared at the village gate, and they indeed saw three people standing there, two of whom were extraordinarily tall.
"Raikage-sama! And, Killer Bee-sama!" The two gate-guarding ninjas quickly and respectfully greeted A and Killer Bee upon their arrival.
"Hmm?!"
A's gaze instantly locked onto the most normal-looking person, Uzumaki Fuushi, because he had seen this woman on the Moby Dick when he was captured by the Whitebeard Pirates!
She seemed to be one of Whitebeard's daughters!
Her name was something like Uzumaki...
She appeared to be from the Uzumaki clan!
"Raikage-sama, long time no see." Uzumaki Fuushi calmly met the Fourth Raikage's gaze.
"...Tch!"
A said irritably, "Since you Whitebeard Pirates have been missing for over a year, why not just disappear completely?"
Uzumaki Fuushi smiled, "It seems we've disappointed you, Raikage.-sama The Whitebeard Pirates are back."
Uzumaki Fuushi got straight to the point, "Raikage-sama, do you remember the promise you made to the Whitebeard Pirates? Isn't it time for Kumogakure Village to pay the money it owes to the Whitebeard Pirates?"
Mentioning this made veins pop on A's forehead.
Because it was a very humiliating matter for Kumogakure Village.
And for him, the Fourth Raikage, it was a lifelong stain.
A's tone was harsh and very annoyed, "What does it mean for Whitebeard to send a woman? Hmph! If he wants that money, let him come in person! Otherwise, forget it! Kumogakure Village isn't a place you can just step on whenever you want!"
Katakuri glanced amusingly at Vista beside him, "The name of the Whitebeard Pirates doesn't seem to carry much weight here!"
Vista smiled nonchalantly, "No worries, we're pirates. Besides being good at playing nice, we're even better at playing rough!"
