Asuma and his team eventually tracked down the Akatsuki members, Hidan and Kakuzu , at a Bounty Station , where they quickly discovered that Hidan was immortal after their first attack. Hidan ordered Kakuzu to stay out of it, wanting to do this on his own. Asuma decided to be the one to physically confront him and took him on in battle while Shikamaru backed him up from a distance with his shadows, keeping Hidan on his toes. The situation worsened, when Hidan's counter-attack resulted in him becoming 'linked' to Asuma through a ritual.
Hidan assumed a Grim Reaper-like form, causing any bodily damage to himself to be shared with Asuma, while at the same time not hindering himself at all. With some quick thinking by Shikamaru who managed to break Hidan's ritual and pin him down, Asuma was able to decapitate him with his chakra-extended trench knives. Surprisingly, Hidan's severed head started to talk, uttering expletives at Asuma and then Kakuzu for not helping him. Kakuzu finally stepped in as he admonished his partner for letting his guard down, and briefly attacked Asuma so he couldn't stop him from sewing Hidan's head back onto his body.
With Hidan's body restored, Hidan resumed the ritual, and impaled himself in the heart. Though the blow did not instantly kill Asuma, it was still quite fatal. The rest of Team 10 arrived as back-up, which, combined with a telepathic call from Pain , forced the Akatsuki duo to leave. Before dying, Asuma left some parting words with his students, and smoked one last cigarette. Later, while Shikamaru exacted revenge upon Hidan for killing Asuma, Asuma appeared before Shikamaru, and congratulated him for finally defeating the immortal.
After entrusting his Will of Fire to Shikamaru, Asuma disappeared in a puff of cigarette smoke just before his student finished off Hidan with a huge explosion. It is the next generation of shinobi, like Asuma's and Kurenai's unborn child, and how they would learn to care and live peacefully by the great shinobi in the present day. That was why Asuma entrusted his baby to Shikamaru, as apprentice and future sensei.
Main article: Power In the anime, Asuma was summoned by Kabuto Yakushi to battle Team Kakashi , who were investigating the massacre that he brought about in the Tonika Village to gain access to The Hole. Quickly after being summoned, Asuma's coffin vanished, leading Kabuto to question whether the Impure World Reincarnation was still incomplete.
Informed by Dan of their current situation, he stated that he had an ominous feeling of what was to come. Relocating to the Land of Lightning 's coast, Asuma emerged from the sea amongst the White Zetsu Army and a few other reincarnated shinobi, before engaging the opposing First Division. Asuma is later confronted by his former students where he praised them on their growth before he engaged them in combat.
Moving involuntarily, Asuma attempted to provide what assistance he could by advising them on the best methods to counteract his attacks. After complimenting his students' on their perfect formation he thanked them, before being completely bound and sealed by the Sealing Team. Main article: Fourth Shinobi World War: Climax Later, with the release of the Impure World Reincarnation technique, a light of sorts encased Asuma's sealed body as the technique was dispelled and his soul returned to the afterlife.
While Sasuke and Boruto pretended to be travelling performers so as to not change the timeline, Boruto was ultimately invited to join Naruto and Team Asuma at a barbecue restaurant, much to Asuma's dismay at needing to spend even more then usual.
Though somewhat understated, the legacy Asuma left behind was one of great value. Within Konoha, and the wider shinobi world he left a sterling record of military prowess which many young Konoha shinobi look up to, wanting to emulate. He is also forever recognised for this prowess having been selected as one of the twelve people deemed strong enough to protect the leader of their country.
Though initially also confused about the role of the Hokage and the Will of Fire which his father told him of, Asuma came to understand all of these in time and also came to appreciate his father, and the role the Hokage played in protecting the villagers. He was also integral in assisting Naruto Uzumaki with his nature transformation training with Wind Release.
This child he views as his " king " whom he asked his student Shikamaru to protect with his dying breath and years later his daughter would follow the footsteps of him and Asuma's father.
In the anime, Asuma's students continued his tradition of taking their respective children to Yakiniku Q to celebrate accomplishments. Asuma appeared as a phantom serving as Shikamaru 's conscience while leading a platoon consisting of the Konoha 11 , tasked to pursue Naruto and Sakura who were then chasing a brainwashed Kakashi. After Shikamaru confronted Naruto about the ramifications of his seeming recklessness, Asuma's ghost told him to stay put as Naruto was simply following his Will of Fire , following Naruto and convincing Shikamaru to help him.

If you think you know what Asuma's so-called king is, then you better bet up since the answer was really revealed.
Over the weekend, Boruto: Naruto Next Generations put up its latest episode, and it was there fans met up with Mirai Sarutobi. The girl has been on a long mission with Kakashi and Might Guy, but a recent interlude made the girl think heavily upon her late father Asuma as she never met him.
The whole mission saw Mirai wonder what her dad's comments about a king were in reference to, and Shikamaru was not about to tell her outright. Luckily, Mirai is a smart girl, and she figured out what her father meant.
At the episode's end, she comes home to have a game of shogi with Shikamaru, and it is there she told her mentor about her discovery. The future should be an utopia or a conception of creating an utopia, not a dystopia.
