"Clang clang clang!"
Inside the enormous oval-shaped water prison, the sounds of flesh and bones writhing and churning echoed continuously.
Kisame's body swelled up to a great size at a visible speed, gradually bursting through his shirt.
As Samehada merged with his body, his skin tone became much darker.
On either side of his shoulders, layers of shark gills slowly emerged and opened.
Sharp shark fins have grown from the joints of both arms.
Even his entire face has become exactly like a shark's.
Its teeth are incredibly sharp, and long shark fins grow from the top of its head.
Kisame, now fused with Samehada, resembles a humanoid tailed beast!
"Gurgle..."
After Kisame fused with Samehada and transformed, he opened his mouth and exhaled several bubbles.
His bloodthirsty gaze was fixed on Su Nuo, who was trapped in the water prison.
His face was full of confidence.
After fusing with Samehada, he was able to swim freely in the water, just like a real shark.
Inside the water dungeon, he will not only be able to breathe freely, but his combat power will also increase exponentially!
In the past, none of the targets he had set his sights on had ever escaped from the water prison, let alone defeated him after his transformation!
"Pressure Massenet!"
"Although I can't kill you, I'll cut off your hands and feet first, and that should make you behave!"
Kisame sneered with a hint of smugness.
After transforming in the water dungeon, he becomes invincible!
No one can defeat him in here!
"Kisame! You talk too much!"
"Something's wrong with his body!"
Itachi's face darkened, and he quickly reminded Kisame.
Because Itachi's Mangekyou Sharingan suddenly discovered that Uzumaki Sukuna's body, which originally had no chakra flow, was now completely exposed.
At this moment, an extremely astonishing surge of chakra erupted!
An immense amount of chakra was spreading wildly outward from his abdomen.
In just a few breaths, it filled Sukuna's entire body.
Furthermore, that chakra was still continuously erupting and releasing, showing faint signs of breaking through the barrier!
It's unimaginable how much chakra it must take to achieve this!
But during the fight just now, the opponent clearly didn't have any chakra at all.
"What is that?!"
At that moment, Kisame, who was also looking at Uzumaki Sukuna, suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
"Gurgle, gurgle..."
A violent red chakra was seen continuously emanating from all parts of Uzumaki Sukuna's skin.
In no time, a chakra cloak formed on the surface of Uzumaki Sukuna's body.
The shape of the outer garment resembles a small fox spirit.
Behind him, a fox tail slowly materialized.
The power of this chakra seemed to radiate high temperatures, causing Sukuna's skin to be burned and ulcerated at an alarming rate!
An incredibly powerful aura quietly emanated from it!
"Nine-Tails!!"
"That's the Nine-Tails' chakra!"
"This guy... he can actually use the Nine-Tails' chakra to transform into a tailed beast!"
Itachi couldn't help but be shocked after seeing the changes in Uzumaki Sukuna's body.
This dark red chakra, filled with a violent aura, clearly came from the Nine-Tails!
He never expected that the other party not only controlled the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki's body, but could also transform into a Tailed Beast!
"Gagaga~~~"
At the same time, as Sukuna's body transformed into a tailed beast, Samehada, which was fused with Kisame's body, suddenly emitted an extremely joyful sound!
Samehada, one of the Seven Ninja Swords, feeds on the chakra of others, devouring chakra to strengthen itself.
The Nine-Tails' chakra, so rich and dense, was clearly a 'delicious feast' that Samehada had never encountered before!
"Mr. Itachi! Don't be nervous!"
"He's still in my water dungeon!"
"Since it's chakra, it's even easier to deal with!"
Kisame snapped out of his daze and gave another confident smile.
He was known as the 'tailless tailed beast'!
Especially after he fused with Samehada, his speed of absorbing chakra far exceeded that of before!
He might have been wary of Uzumaki Sukuna's slashing ability that didn't use chakra.
But now...
He was confident that he could absorb all of the Nine-Tails' chakra!
"call out!!"
After Kisame finished speaking, he suddenly kicked the water and burst out.
The speed he suddenly unleashed was more than twice as fast as before!
His physical fitness will also be greatly improved in the water.
Others in the water may be unable to exert their speed due to resistance or other factors.
But once he transforms, he can swim freely and even faster!
On the other hand, Sukuna's smile was even wider at this moment.
"This is... Tailed Beast Transformation!"
"Nine-Tails chakra, indeed impressive!"
Even though he did not possess chakra himself, he had not learned any ninjutsu.
Yet he could still clearly sense the power of Kurama's chakra.
He looked up at the Kisame swimming towards him and a thought struck him.
"Pfft!!"
The next moment, under the utterly shocked gazes of Kisame and Itachi, the flesh around Sukuna's waist began to writhe wildly.
With a 'plop' sound, a pair of brand new arms grew out from the flesh!
"???"
Both Itachi and Kisame were shocked and stared wide-eyed at the sight!
You can play it like this?
Because the two hands were meant to maintain that defensive hand gesture, two more arms actually grew out of them.
So, the opponent was just messing with them by not using their slashing abilities earlier?
Suddenly, Sukuna's two brand-new arms were raised.
Upon seeing this, Kisame hurriedly stopped his forward momentum.
Now that Sukuna has two more arms, rushing in rashly might just result in another grid-like slash that could shatter half of his arm.
"That's right!"
"Don't panic!"
"So what if he has two more arms and can use that kind of slashing ability?"
"Even inside the water dungeon, I could clearly see his slashing attacks!"
"The slashing motion will definitely be slower due to the resistance of the water!"
"In the end, he is still a human body controlling the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki!"
"If we just trap him here, he won't be able to breathe for long!"
Kisame calmed down and analyzed the situation in his mind.
The advantages he gains after fusing with Samehada go far beyond simply increasing his chakra absorption speed and enhancing his overall physical abilities...
Most importantly, he can breathe underwater!
As long as you keep your opponent trapped in the water prison, they will suffocate and be defeated in no time!
Moreover, he could clearly see that 'invisible' and swift slashing ability even from underwater.
With that in mind, Kisame increased the distance between himself and Sukuna Uzumaki, gathering chakra in preparation to use ninjutsu to wear down his opponent.
"Buzz!!"
But at that moment, Uzumaki Sukuna's next move caused Itachi and Kisame's expressions to change drastically!
After raising his other two arms, Uzumaki Sukuna did not unleash his slashing ability, but instead continued to unleash even more powerful Nine-Tails chakra.
As more Nine-Tails chakra was released, the tails behind him, transformed into tailed beasts, condensed and increased in size once more!
In the blink of an eye, the number of tails went from one to three!
Tailed Beast Transformation, the power of three tails!
