Rumble—!
Aokawa's hands, which had just slapped the ground, had not yet left it when an incredibly thick Earth Wall rose from the ground.
Immediately after, the deadly barrage of rocks and mud slammed fiercely into the wall.
Deafening impact sounds merged into one.
The surface of the solid Earth Wall was smashed with huge dents, cracks spread rapidly, and brokenstones and mud fell rustling.
Behind the wall, Aokawa panted heavily, his chest heaving like a bellows.
Continuous high-intensity combat had significantly depleted his Chakra.
Maintaining his Byakugan, his gaze penetrated the crumbling Earth Wall, trying to lock onto Four-Tails Kirabi's next move.
However, as his eyes swept past, they suddenly narrowed.
In the dense forest not far behind him, he saw several familiar figures.
Kakashi, Hinata Iruha... why were they here? Weren't they told to evacuate?
Aokawa's brows instantly furrowed.
His Byakugan's vision continued to extend outwards, and then, an even more alarming scene appeared.
In the forest further away, several teams of Cloud Hidden Ninja were conducting a carpet search in a standard encirclement formation.
And the direction of their search and advance was precisely the area where Kakashi and the others were hidden.
His pupils suddenly constricted; with so many Cloud Ninja, something must have happened at the Main Camp!
No wonder there was such a commotion here, yet the Main Camp never sent anyone over.
Kakashi and the others clearly encountered Cloud Ninja on their way back, and now they were trapped between himself and the Cloud Hidden encirclement, with no way forward or back!
He clenched his fists: "What is Orochimaru doing? The backyard is on fire, and by all accounts, the distress signal should have been received by now."
Just as he was distracted for a split second.
In his Byakugan's vision, an extremely dangerous dark red Chakra suddenly erupted in front of the Earth Wall!
Pfft!
Two Chakra claws, burning with an ominous aura, pierced through the thick Earth Wall without warning.
The claws, with a tearing shriek, aimed straight for his heart.
Aokawa's pupils suddenly contracted to a pinprick!
There was no time to think; pure battle instinct drove his body.
Hirenkyaku activated instantly.
His figure instantly shifted half a step sideways.
Almost at the same time, the two claws grazed his chest, and the strong wind they generated tore his clothes.
Boom!
The heavily battered giant wall, accompanied by a "crack," was completely torn apart by the two claws, breaking in the middle and collapsing with a roar.
The flying dust dissipated.
What appeared before everyone was a brand new Battlefield.
The original forest and deep pit had disappeared, replaced by a vast and turbid lake.
Aokawa stood on the constantly swaying surface of the water.
And in the center of the lake, Four-Tails Kirabi's massive body stood, stirring the water, its scarlet eyes fixed on him.
With a roar, Four-Tails Kirabi suddenly charged out.
Its four giant arms, like raging pythons emerging from a cave, slammed towards Aokawa from all directions with mountain-shattering, tsunami-like force.
For a time, dull thuds were incessant.
Aokawa's figure twisted and turned amidst the storm of attacks, each block and dodge appearing breathtaking.
Finally, after a direct block, Four-Tails Kirabi seized an opportunity.
Its two main arms, like iron pincers, tightly gripped Aokawa's body.
Both sides glared, unwilling to give an inch.
The contact of the Tailed Beast Chakra continuously corroded Aokawa's skin, causing wisps of white smoke to rise.
"Roar—!"
Accompanied by an angry roar, an even more violent Chakra erupted from Four-Tails Kirabi's body.
The fifth tail suddenly burst forth from behind it!
Five-Tails Form!
The restraining force suddenly surged, and Aokawa felt all the bones in his body groan under the unbearable pressure.
The strange blue and white patterns on his arms glowed brightly!
"Blood Movement Armor!"
Enduring the burning pain in his skin, he let out a low growl, and his arms, which had been tightly suppressed, actually began to expand outwards.
That power completely defied the difference in size.
For the first time, a hint of astonishment appeared in Five-Tails Kirabi's scarlet beast eyes.
It felt that its immense strength, enough to crush steel, was actually being pushed open by the opponent!
Crack!
A crisp sound.
Not only did Aokawa break free, but he also grabbed one of Five-Tails Kirabi's wrists with a backhand!
...In the distant dense forest.
Kakashi, Uchiha Tetsubi, Suzuki Shinj, and others watched this scene dumbfounded.
Their minds were completely unable to comprehend the sight before them.
That tiny figure actually grabbed the giant arm of that monster.
"What... what is he going to do?" Suzuki Shinj's voice trembled.
The next second, they witnessed the most absurd scene of their lives.
Aokawa's feet were firmly planted on the ground, his entire body's muscles visibly bulging, and the blue and white patterns on his exposed skin glowed intensely.
He let out an earth-shattering roar.
The Five-Tails monster, as heavy as a mountain, was actually forcefully pulled off the ground by him!
Immediately after, he exerted force with his waist, rotating around himself as an axis!
Five-Tails Kirabi was thus swung by him, tracing a huge arc in the air.
One rotation!
Two rotations!
The whistling wind sounded like ghosts wailing and wolves howling.
Finally, Aokawa suddenly let go.
Boom—!
Five-Tails Kirabi transformed into a red cannonball, thrown high into the sky by him like a discus!
...The turbid accumulated water submerged Nii Yugito's mouth and nose.
"Gurgle..."
She suddenly woke up, struggling out of the water, and coughed violently while lying on a higher rock.
"Kirabi, that bastard..."
As soon as she caught her breath, she instinctively looked up to find her companion's figure.
Then, she saw a scene that froze her Soul.
Kirabi... had entered his Five-Tails Form.
And in his Five-Tails Form, he was actually being swung and thrown into the sky by a teenager.
How was that possible?!
Although a Jinchuriki's body isn't large after Tailed Beast Transformation, its weight is terrifying under the high-density Chakra enhancement, and now it was actually being pulled up by someone.
The color instantly drained from her beautiful face.
Below, the man who threw Kirabi into the sky had, at some point, conjured a Spirit Bow.
The bow's body was covered in flames, and the bowstring was drawn to a full moon.
In the sky, hundreds of exploding Chakra Arrows appeared out of nowhere, pouring down on Kirabi, who was unable to gain leverage in the air.
Boom boom boom boom boom!
Continuous explosions formed a crimson death zone in the air.
Five-Tails Kirabi let out a painful roar; unable to stabilize itself in the air, it could only instinctively use several arms to awkwardly protect its head.
Just then, Aokawa's Byakugan detected a highly ominous energy fluctuation.
Under the cover of those few arms, a mass of Tailed Beast Chakra was rapidly condensing in Five-Tails Kirabi's mouth.
The next second, Five-Tails Kirabi abruptly moved its arms away from its face.
"Buzz—!"
Countless destructive red Chakra Cannonballs, like a torrential rain, shot overwhelmingly towards the tiny figure on the ground.
