Aokawa looked indifferent, using Hirenkyaku to constantly change positions and maintain an absolutely safe distance.
Meanwhile, he poured out Chakra Arrows loaded with Explosive Tags, subjecting Killer Bee to relentless fire suppression.
Beneath his skin, the Chakra Threads used to fix his broken bones snapped one by one, only to be re-wrapped by new threads. The intense pain never stopped, but his hand remained as steady as a rock.
Boom!
Another wave of explosive arrows fell. Killer Bee awkwardly protected himself with his seven blades, his Tailed Beast Chakra Mode surging violently in the explosions.
"Bastard!" Faced with this disgusting fighting style, Killer Bee could no longer hold back.
The orange-red Chakra on his body erupted suddenly, forming a visible shockwave that blew away all the surrounding smoke and dust.
He gave up on using his blades for precise parrying, letting those explosive Wind Arrows strike his solid Tailed Beast Chakra Mode.
He turned himself into an orange-red cannonball and charged straight at Aokawa!
Here he comes!
Aokawa's Byakugan captured Killer Bee's movements, as well as the impatience on his face.
This was exactly the effect he wanted.
Facing the menacingly charging Killer Bee, the expression on Aokawa's face didn't change at all; instead, his speed in drawing and firing arrows increased further.
A new, denser wave of arrows flew toward him once again.
But within this wave of dozens of Wind Arrows, Aokawa's left hand, in an extremely subtle movement, took out an unremarkable silver metal cylinder from his ninja tool pouch.
He notched the cylinder onto the bowstring and fired it together with the dense arrows.
Killer Bee had already broken through the first half of the arrow rain, and was less than twenty meters away from Aokawa.
He could even see the beads of sweat on the Byakugan boy's face.
"Strike with the silver whip, hitting the five-fingered stone bed! Gokakuhō!"
Hum!
That silver cylinder suddenly burst with an extremely blinding white light!
A giant Pentagram Array instantly expanded with the silver cylinder as its center. Five pillars of light shot into the sky, quickly weaving into an indestructible oval cage of light, trapping the caught-off-guard Killer Bee inside!
"What?!" Killer Bee was shocked. Before he could react, he was enveloped in darkness.
Aokawa knew very well that this level of Bakudo couldn't trap a Perfect Jinchuriki for long.
He didn't pause for a second.
The moment the incantation was finished, the Chakra light beneath his feet flared. He activated Hirenkyaku, his figure soaring into the sky, appearing directly above the trapped Killer Bee.
The Spirit Bow in his hand ignited with raging flames, and a crimson Guiding Chakra Arrow, wrapped in countless white Explosive Tags, took shape on the bowstring.
His gaze locked onto Killer Bee, who was constantly striking the light prison below.
In the next second, the sky behind him was dyed crimson. Hundreds of identical Explosive Flame Arrows appeared out of thin air, their tips pointing downward like an inverted rain of swords, as if doomsday had arrived.
Aokawa pulled the bow to its full extent.
"Fire Release: Light Rain Explosive Flame Arrows!"
The second the Guiding Chakra Arrow left the string, the sky seemed to be completely ignited.
Hundreds of Explosive Flame Arrows, trailing crimson exhaust, fell like a meteor shower of doom, letting out deafening whistles as they poured down upon the area locked by Gokakuhō.
Boom boom boom boom!
The arrows exploded violently the moment they touched anything. The deafening explosions merged into a continuous thunder.
The entire earth trembled under this world-destroying saturated bombardment. The flames soared into the sky, reflecting a crimson glow across the distant horizon.
Not far away, Kakashi and his group, who hadn't run far due to their heavy injuries, suddenly felt the ground beneath them shake violently wave after wave.
They instinctively stopped and looked back.
They saw that the sky had been covered by an endless crimson.
Countless lines of fire fell from the vault of heaven, densely striking the same area.
Then, the continuous explosions merged into a persistent thunder. Even from such a distance, the sound still made their eardrums ache.
That forest was being repeatedly plowed by a natural disaster.
"Is this... really Ninjutsu?" Hyuga Ryosuke lay on his companion's back, staring at the apocalyptic scene, completely stunned.
When did the Aokawa he knew gain such god-like power?
Hinata Iruha's Byakugan was also staring intently at the sky.
He clearly saw Aokawa floating directly above the explosion area, maintaining his bow-drawing posture, his expression showing no emotion.
In his vision, the ground in that area was being torn up layer by layer, and trees were instantly turned into charcoal and ash in the falling rain of fire.
Compared to Kakashi and the others who had seen it once before, this was the first time Hinata Iruha had witnessed such a disaster-like scene.
"That guy... has become stronger again," he murmured.
At the center of the explosion, flames and shockwaves raged.
The white barrier formed by "Gokakuhō" shattered brittlely with a crisp sound under the impact of the first wave of arrows.
Without the restraint, Killer Bee's figure was completely exposed to the world-destroying saturated bombardment.
The orange-red Tailed Beast Chakra Mode on his body was constantly torn and consumed in the explosions.
But in the center of the destruction, an even deeper, more violent red Chakra erupted from within him.
It was no longer a translucent Aura, but a solid dark-red Chakra shield that completely enveloped him.
Boom boom boom!
The rain of arrows continued to strike the shield, exploding into ripples of intense energy.
"Roar—!"
A roar of combined unwillingness and rage came from within the flames.
The dark-red Chakra shield exploded violently. What rushed out was no longer a human-shaped Killer Bee.
It was a monster completely covered in dark-red materialized Chakra, with four thick tails swinging behind it!
Four-Tails Form!
With his power and speed surging, Killer Bee's figure vanished from the spot.
In the next instant, he appeared directly in front of Aokawa high in the air, so fast that even the Byakugan could only capture a blurry red trail.
One of the muscular Chakra tails, accompanied by a whistle that tore through the atmosphere, swept toward Aokawa's waist.
Facing this violent strike, the strange blue-white patterns on Aokawa's left arm glowed brightly.
Blood Movement Armor!
He raised his left arm and directly met that giant tail.
Bang—!
A dull roar like a mountain collapsing!
A visible white shockwave exploded outward from the point of impact.
