Ep 87. When You Curse Someone, You Dig Your Own Grave

When You Curse Someone, You Dig Your Own Grave is the 87th episode of the second season of Naruto Shippuden. The episode follows the continuation of the battle between the members of the Akatsuki and the members of the Hidden Leaf Village. The Akatsuki team, consisting of Hidan and Kakuzu, is facing off against the Leaf Village's Asuma Sarutobi, Shikamaru Nara, and two other Leaf Village ninjas.

The episode starts with the four Leaf Village ninjas confronting Hidan and Kakuzu. Asuma is the first to attack, but his attack is blocked by Kakuzu, who then sends him flying. Shikamaru charges towards Hidan but is caught by one of his ritual blades. Hidan then proceeds to use his jutsu, which involves drawing blood from the victim and then cursing them by stabbing his own body, which Shikamaru happens to be covered in. This means that any damage inflicted on Hidan is also inflicted on Shikamaru.

Asuma comes to Shikamaru's rescue, but is then caught by Hidan, who proceeds to perform the same jutsu on him. The curse on Asuma is much worse as Hidan had drunk his blood, making the curse even stronger. Asuma is unable to move and is left to be tortured by Hidan.

Meanwhile, Kakuzu engages in battle with the other two Leaf Village ninjas. He uses his incredible strength and agility to overpower them. The two ninjas decide to split up, with one of them remaining to continue the fight against Kakuzu while the other rushes to save Asuma and Shikamaru.

Shikamaru and Asuma are both in a perilous situation, with Hidan enjoying torturing them both. Shikamaru figures out a way to save both himself and Asuma by using a clever tactic that involves deceiving Hidan. Meanwhile, the other Leaf Ninja arrives to help and engages in a fierce battle with Kakuzu.

As the battle between the two sides reaches its climax, it becomes apparent that the Leaf Village ninjas are outmatched. Hidan and Kakuzu prove to be formidable opponents, with their unique abilities and tricks causing the Leaf Village team to struggle. However, the Leaf Village ninjas are determined to protect their village and their comrades, and so they fight on.

The episode ends with a cliffhanger, as the fate of the Leaf Village ninjas remains uncertain. The battle has been intense, and the fate of the entire Hidden Leaf Village hangs in the balance.
