Ten Days Later
Land of Hot Springs
Itachi, Izumi, Sasuke, Natsuki and Naruto were walking on a mud road between a dense forest. Naruto who was out of the Land of Fire for the first time looked at the scenery around him with curiosity written all over his face.
" Heh, country bumpkin " Sasuke seeing this mocked Naruto
" Ahhh, Idiot Sasuke take that back !!! " Naruto who heard this exploded like cat who got stepped on its tail and screamed loudly to Sasuke.
" I don't talk to weaklings. Come back to me when you have also mastered an A-rank Ninjutsu. " Sasuke having Naruto's attention said his achievements in a calm tone as if it's nothing.
" Whatt !!!! " Let alone Naruto even Natsuki was shocked by this. The highest rank ninjutsu she had learned was a B-level and even that took her months to learn but now Sasuke learned an A-rank without another word.
" Big brother Itachi, I also want to learn an A-ran— no S-rank ninjutsu even more powerful than Sasuke . " Naruto not be left behind by Sasuke immediately begged Itachi.
" Naruto you can't swallow more than you could chew. You must first learn to perfectly control Chakra and Shape Transformation. Only then I can teach you advance Ninjutsu. "
" Yeeesssss " Naruto hearing this deflated like a balloon but he couldn't contradict Itachi.
" Natsuki, I will teach you Chidori Style later. " Seeing Natsuki's expression, Itachi said with smile.
" Yaay, big brother you are the best " Natsuki hearing immediately complemented Itachi.
" Hmm ? Looks like our target is ahead. " Just then Itachi sensed the unusual aura of a person a few hundred meters away from them.
" Big brother, is our target ahead ? " Sasuke hearing this became excited.
" Indeed, but I am warning once again. Although Hidan has only Jonin to Elite-Jonin level strength but once his ritual is completed, he can take down even a Kage-level Ninja within a minute. So, the three of you will not engage in Taijutsu as much as possible and only support Izumi. Do you understand ? "
" Yessss " Hearing the reply Itachi once again wondered whether his decision to let these brats fight or not is right or wrong.
A few days ago, they had reached near Konoha so everyone returned for a day rest and then he met Izumi. Izumi though usually shy, boldy said she also wants to train outside with Itachi. Itachi who was now a young man naturally wouldn't decline such a favour of a beautiful woman.
Shisui seeing this declined to go to the Land of Demons citing work to do, Naruto and Natsuki on the other hand hearing Sasuke brag about seeing the battle of Itachi against Nagato and the battle between the various Kages level powerhouses immediately became jealous and then they pestered Itachi for hours. Ultimately, Itachi agreed on the terms that they listen to him 200%.
Yesterday, Itachi received the latest intel of Hidan and found that they would meet him before arriving in the capital city so he told everyone the information of Hidan, his abilities and even his weakness and strength.
Sasuke having mastered Chidori immediately requested to fight Hidan. Seeing Sasuke dare to take someone of this level Natsuki and Naruto immediately begged for a chance. Izumi seeing this also persuaded Sasuke saying that since she came for training then she should fight. Thus it was decided that Izumi would be the centre engaging with Hidan and others would be supporters.

Five Minutes Later
Hidan who was getting anxious of not sacrificing a single soul in the past few days finally spotted a group of children ahead. Seeing this Hidan immediately became estactic, today's quota can now not only be filled but even even fill the gap of the previous few days.
Demonic Illusion: Black Nirvana
The next moment Black feathers started falling in the nearby hundred meters though it didn't affect Itachi and his group.
Fire Style : Great Fireball Jutsu × 2
Wind Style : Great Wind Breakthrough × 2
" Ahhhhhh "
The next moment before Hidan could escape from the Genjutsu Izumi had woven and do anything two huge fireballs rushed towards him and exploded midway but then huge gusts of wind carried the fire with more force and intensity blasting into Hidan trying to cook him alive.
Hidan though immortal still felt the pain of being cooked alive though fortunately because of pain he got out of the Genjutsu. Then he hurriedly rushed forward to escape this sea of fire but suddenly he fell on the ground with his legs bound by multiple strings.
Fire Style : Dragon Fire Jutsu × 3
Then Izumi, Sasuke and Natsuki holding multiple strings formed hand seals and breathed out fire which travelled along the steel wire and Hidan was now once again barbequed alive.
One Minute Later
" Ahhhhhhh "
Three Minutes Later
" Ahhhhhhhh "
Five Minutes later
" Ahhhhhhh "
Itachi seeing this didn't know what to think. Although he knew that because of immortality Hidan is usually so arrogant that he dares to defy Pain and threatens to kill everyone in Akatsuki in front of them, he didn't expect Hidan to directly ignore Izumi and others and get captured so easily. He who was lecturing others about the danger of Hidan now felt like a clown 🤡 🤡 🤡
" Haah, haah big brother he is indeed an immortal. Five minutes of continuous use of B-grade ninjutsu has completely exhausted the two of us but he is still alive. " Sasuke looked at the exhausted Natsuki and said to Itachi with exhaustion.
Naruto on the other was looking at Sasuke with envy, he at the end of the day only knew a few C-rank Wind Style Ninjutsu and couldn't join the three Uchiha just now and could only watch.
" Izumi, let's not waste Chakra. Just use the sealing Jutsu I had thought you before on him. "
Izumi hearing this nodded and stopped spraying fire. Then she opened her three-tomoe Sharingan and walked towards the still agonizing Hidan. When she was one meter away she used her Sharingan to hypnotize him again and then pressed her hand on his chest.
Fūinjutsu : Nine Vein Seal
Seeing this Itachi nodded in satisfaction. After getting the Ex-level Fūinjutsu this year he had been trying to teach everyone Fūinjutsu. Izumi with her three tomoe Sharingan naturally made great progress.
" Ahhhhhhh, you heretics I will definitely sacrifice you to Lord Evil God !!! " Hidan who had finally snapped out of Genjutsu felt the powerless feeling and immediately threatened Itachi.
Itachi ignored Hidan and appeared hundred meters away biting his thumb and after a few seal slammed his hand against the ground.
Summoning Jutsu : Aoda
The next moment a huge blue snake emerged from the huge Summoning Circle breaking all the trees nearby with Itachi on his head. Sasuke and other seeing such a huge Summoning beasts were still shocked even if they had seen it before.
" Lord Itachi, what are you orders ? "
Aoda the Summoning beast of the Future Sasuke now followed Itachi after Itachi signed the Ryuchi Cave Summoning Contract with the help of Orochimaru.
" Swallow him and take him to Orochimaru. Tell him that maybe he can find the secret to immortality from researching him. Also tell him that I want him obidient within a year. "
" Yes, Itachi-sama "
{ He Itachi trusted the skills of the biggest Child Trafficker and Manipulator of the Ninja world. }
Seeing Aoda disappear Itachi looked at everyone and smiled.
" Everyone although Hidan wasn't able to use his special ability and was careless because of his immortality, he is still an elite Jonin. You have made a great achievement taking him down at such a young age and as a reward we will be spending one weak in Hot Springs Capital as a vacation.
But after this fight you must also remember the lesson, when you are out of the Village or even the Clan you have to be always alert, always giving your all and never underestimate anyone. Even if you have Kage-level strength with proper strategy and planning even a few Chunin can take you down. "
" Yesss " Hearing about vacation Naruto and others were naturally excited especially in the famous tourist spot of Land of Hot Springs so they immediately nodded to Itachi.
" Then let's Goooo !!!! "

{ Was the fight too easy ? Though I doubt Hidan can get out of the Genjutsu Izumi had planted with the help of Three tomoe Sharingan so easily and then everything followed accordingly not giving him any chance to use Death by Blood Ability. "
