Takikage became even angrier upon hearing his words.
"You bastard, not only did you steal the village's secret jutsu Earth Grudge Fear, now you also want to seize the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki."
"Damn it, everyone attack, wipe out these three people."
Upon hearing his words, each Takigakure ninja directly charged at these three people.
Kisame still had a calm expression. "Looks like negotiations have broken down."
Looking at the Takigakure ninjas charging over one by one, he directly picked up the weapon wrapped in bandages behind his back and began swinging. These Takigakure ninjas didn't even last a single round, they were far too weak.
On the other side, Jūzō also wielded the Executioner's Blade, injuring the Takigakure ninjas attacking him.
Those Takigakure ninjas simply had no way to deal with him. His swordsmanship was indeed very strong.
Among the three, the one being attacked the most was Kakuzu, but Kakuzu's explosive punches directly injured and killed many Takigakure ninjas.
At this moment, the miserable screams of Takigakure ninjas echoed everywhere.
The battle was completely one-sided.
Takikage was shocked in his heart, this Kakuzu really had completely fused the secret jutsu Earth Grudge Fear into himself. Otherwise, he wouldn't still be alive.
The other two were also very strong ninjas.
'Damn it, they actually dared to kill Takigakure ninjas.'
He roared, "I will absolutely not let you off."
He charged directly at Kakuzu. But after a round of fighting, he was directly knocked to the ground, bruised and battered, his clothes covered in blood.
Kakuzu directly reached out and grabbed this guy.
"The village is really so weak now."
Takikage was furious. "You... I didn't expect Takigakure to be destroyed at the hands of a traitor like you."
Kakuzu sneered coldly, "Isn't it being destroyed by your hands instead? If you obediently hand over the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki, wouldn't that be better?"
Actually, he didn't want to kill so many people. At most, he just wanted to vent some of the anger in his heart. After all, the people in charge back then were already dead. Getting angry at these people was pointless.
But if the Takikage handed over the Tailed Beast now, he wouldn't bother fighting anymore. The rest were just civilians anyway, and their heads weren't worth much.
Having lived so long, there was nothing he cared about anymore, except money.
Takikage's face was still full of hatred.
'This damn guy, I would absolutely never hand the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki over to him. So many people have died, how could I explain that to the rest of the village?'
But if he didn't, with Kakuzu's violent personality, this guy would definitely destroy the whole village.
His heart was full of anxiety.
At this time, from the streets of Takigakure slowly walked out a little green-haired girl, trembling as she came in front of Kakuzu.
"I am the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki. If you have business, come at me. Spare the rest of the village."
Takikage spoke sorrowfully. "Fu, you shouldn't have come out. These guys trying to take the Tailed Beast definitely aren't up to any good. They might even get you killed."
Making a child like her the vessel of a Tailed Beast already made him feel ashamed, no one else in the village was compatible. And now he had to let her sacrifice herself for the village, even as Takikage, he felt ashamed.
Fu looked firm and said, "Hiding in the back is useless. This guy won't let me or the villagers go. Instead of that, better to sacrifice me alone."
Ever since she became the village's Jinchuriki, she had not been welcomed. Better to die out of the village, maybe that would be freedom.
Kakuzu looked at this strong girl.
"A good person. Better at seeing the situation than this clueless Takikage."
He then flung the Takikage harshly to the ground, making him cry out in pain.
Fu saw this and anxiously rushed over to block in front of the Takikage, speaking in a deep voice, "Do not harm Lord Takikage."
Kakuzu looked at this little child, surprised in his heart.
"What a pity. If you weren't the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki, I'd let you go."
The Akatsuki Organization's goal was to extract the Tailed Beasts from the Jinchuriki and seal them in the Gedo Statue, which meant certain death.
He reached out to grab the little girl.
Just at that moment, at the entrance of the Takigakure tunnel, a figure appeared.
When he saw Kakuzu reaching out toward the green-haired girl, he instantly accelerated and rushed directly in front of Kakuzu, then lifted his leg and whirlwind-kicked Kakuzu in the waist.
Kakuzu was slammed heavily into the mountain wall.
BOOM!
The mountain wall shook violently.
On the other side, Jūzō and Kisame, who had just finished fighting, were surprised. They saw the newcomer wearing red clouds and black clothes, almost identical to their own.
Only the red cloud's position was different, but the main color was still black, and he also wore a white mask.
Jūzō muttered to himself that this wasn't good.
Could his luck really be this bad, did he actually run into the legendary Uchiha Madara?
He couldn't help but ask, "Who the hell are you?"
Ryosuke looked at the two Akatsuki members, Kisame and Jūzō. The one he had just kicked away was Kakuzu.
He didn't expect the Akatsuki Organization to start acting, was it because they heard about him collecting Tailed Beasts, or was this when they originally planned to start collecting them?
They had almost beaten him to it. After all, Takigakure was a very hard place to find, even in the Land of Waterfalls, few knew of its location.
But he naturally had a way to find it. After all, he had seen the original plot, and knew that Takigakure was hidden beneath a great waterfall. After asking Zabuza to gather intel in many places, he found it.
Looking at the wounded lying everywhere, and even some clearly already dead people, he once again felt the chaos and lawlessness of the shinobi world.
It wasn't just the Akatsuki, this evil organization killed the innocent, even the other forces in the shinobi world would do the same.
It wasn't as beautiful as the original story showed. But thinking about it, that was normal, in this world, with power, you could do whatever you wanted, as long as you didn't provoke the Five Great Shinobi Villages.
Maybe at the start, he only pretended to be Madara and created the Illuminati to make Akatsuki take the blame. But seeing such a tragic scene, some thoughts began to stir in his heart.
After all, he lived in this world, if he didn't unify the shinobi world, he could at least ensure it had basic order. So things like slaughter wouldn't happen all the time, things that irritated him.
After all, this was his world too, if it could be purified a little, with fewer massacres like this, that would be better.
