The battle in the casino had ended.
Thanks to the home-field advantage, the bodyguards of the leader's son from Kagerō Village successfully repelled the Kirigakure pursuit squad.
It was evident that this leader's son had a lot of experience with assassination attempts.
The bodyguards and shinobi protecting him and Anjinro did not recklessly pursue outside the casino; this was Kagerō Village, and as long as a signal was sent, plenty of shinobi would naturally help them in the chase.
Throughout, this lovey-dovey male couple sat leisurely at the gambling table, watching the show.
At this moment, the leader's son noticed Rinjin and Hozuki Gengetsu by the bar, both wearing hoods and cloaks.
"Hey, you two, what are you doing all mysterious-like? Take off those hoods for me!"
A brutish voice rang out, with a finger as thick as a radish pointing in Rinjin's direction.
Upon hearing this, Rinjin lowered three fingers, casually removed his hood, and continued looking at Hozuki Gengetsu.
"Uncle Gengetsu, do you believe it, three seconds."
"Bullshit, if you finish in three seconds, I'll wash your stinky socks for a year!"
Hozuki Gengetsu clearly didn't believe it.
Three seconds to finish, when each of them has a substitution jutsu? You're dreaming!
"Alright, you said it."
Just as Rinjin was about to act, Hozuki Gengetsu stopped him with a hand.
"Hey! Wait a minute, what if it takes more than three seconds?"
Glancing at the shifty-eyed Hozuki Gengetsu, Rinjin chuckled and whispered:
"Then I'll tell you the seal to release Impure World Reincarnation, and you can go wild in the future."
Imagining Hozuki Gengetsu releasing Impure World Reincarnation during the Fourth Shinobi World War while fighting the Allied Shinobi Forces made Rinjin laugh.
Can't wait to see the expression on Gaara and the others' faces.
Hearing Rinjin's words, Hozuki Gengetsu grinned widely, nodding his head vigorously without any regard for his image.
"Deal! No backing out!"
"Of course."
While the two were boasting, Anjinro suddenly shouted from not far away.
"Hoshigaki Fuguki! What are you doing here?!"
For such questions, Rinjin paid no heed and calmly raised his left hand.
"One second!"
Lightning Release Chakra Mode, activate!
"Two seconds!"
The Eighth Gate, Gate of Death, open!
"Three seconds!"
As the words fell.
In an instant, red and blue lightning flashed, and Rinjin traversed the entire casino at a speed a hundred times faster than the Body Flicker Technique.
Even someone as strong as the Second Mizukage, Hozuki Gengetsu, only felt Rinjin's aura suddenly become incredibly terrifying.
When he turned to look beside him, Rinjin seemed to have never left, his aura already subsided.
Then, a dozen heads flew into the air, accompanied by large spurts of blood from the necks.
Meeting his gaze, Rinjin grinned, his chubby face full of schadenfreude.
"Uncle Gengetsu, a year's worth of stinky socks~"
Hearing this, Hozuki Gengetsu's eye twitched violently.
Are... are... are today's kids all... monsters?!
I was only dead for ten years!
What happened to this world, how could such unreasonable beings appear!
I feel like I've been dead for over a hundred years!
Oh my god~ The shinobi world is terrifying, I want to go back to the Pure Land.
Rinjin's strength had surpassed his understanding of shinobi.
After all, the normal shinobi style is forming seals, spitting fire, or spewing water;
Even more outrageous things, Hozuki Gengetsu had seen, like big shots like Hashirama Senju who just clapped their hands, and whatever they shouted came.
That was still within his understanding.
Never thought he'd see something new today.
This guy, doesn't even clap his hands anymore, just directly sends people off with his body.
Has the world of shinobi ended?
While Hozuki Gengetsu's mind was trembling, the casino fell completely silent.
People only saw the leader's son pointing at the tall, fat man by the counter, telling him to take off his hood.
Then, the fat man took off his hood.
And then, there was no 'then'.
The leader's son, his lover, the bodyguards, all their heads flew up in unison, blood splattering everywhere.
"Ghost!"
A piercing scream shattered the silence of the casino, as a scantily clad hostess screamed hysterically, running out of the casino in high heels.
Only then did the crowd react, fleeing this terrifying place in panic.
Some even crawled frantically on the ground, covered in sticky blood, trying to escape.
People toppled over tables and chairs, chips and money flew everywhere.
Amidst the chaos, Rinjin walked over to Anjinro's headless body, picked up his head and body, muttering to himself.
"Let's go, Anjinro.
Quick, wake up, take your head, and come home with me.
Huh? You can't?
Fine, I'll carry it for you.
You're really lucky to have me carry your head.
Unlike me back then, pitifully carrying my head, following behind that guy Isamu Inoue."
Watching Rinjin holding the target's head with a forlorn expression, Hozuki Gengetsu, who was eavesdropping, instinctively shrank his neck.
What kind of hellish joke is this!
Carrying your own head, following someone else, just say you're immortal!
While complaining in his heart, Hozuki Gengetsu didn't stop his hands, taking out a scroll, spreading it on the ground, sealing Anjinro's headless body and head inside.
"Done, let's go!" he called out, leading the way out of the casino.
...
Just after Rinjin and Hozuki Gengetsu leisurely left the village, a row of heads peeked out at the village entrance.
"Chief, those two took your son's lover's body, should we chase them?"
The bearded chief of Kagerō Village didn't even think before slapping the speaker hard, growling lowly:
"Chase your damn head!
It's obvious those two were targeting that guy, the instant kill in the casino was probably their doing!
With such powerful figures, you want us to die?!"
Hearing this, the people around nodded in agreement, unanimously giving a thumbs up in their hearts.
The boss is indeed wise!
Wobbling, the two reached the port they had arrived at.
Just as they were about to board the ship, they were stopped by a familiar-looking arrogant man.
At this moment, the arrogant-looking man was covered in wounds, looking particularly battered.
Seeing the two without any signs of fighting, a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes.
"Failed? I told you to cooperate with me, maybe it would have worked....."
As he spoke, a scroll flew out from Rinjin's cloak.
Seeing this, the arrogant man hurriedly caught it, looking at the towering Hoshigaki Fuguki, asking in confusion: "What's this?"
"The target, let's go back and report."
Hearing this, the arrogant man's eyebrows instantly knitted together, staring seriously at Rinjin, asking in a deep voice:
"Hoshigaki Fuguki, are you sure?!"
"Sure, if it's fake, I'll give you Samehada!"
As soon as the words fell, Samehada on Rinjin's back started wriggling.
Don't get it wrong, it wasn't resisting, it was excited.
Anyone who could get rid of Rinjin's extremely unpalatable chakra, no matter who, Samehada was willing.
And recently, this guy did something, making his chakra even more disgusting.
The original mud mixed with grass flavor was already bad enough, now there's an added wood chip taste, it's like disgusting opened the door for disgusting, disgusting to the extreme.
