Chapter 164 - Ninja Alliance Forces, The Yonko Appear!

As soon as those words were spoken, Naruto's figure disappeared from its place and reappeared right beside Tobirama.

Naruto's face looked very pale because he had used the Grand Book of Kotodama twice.

With his current abilities, using that book was still too much forcing himself.

This item was an absolute "Book of Rules"; theoretically it could manifest anything, but that depended on the user's capacity. The two uses Naruto performed were just moving himself to another place, so the difficulty level wasn't too high.

However, if he wanted to forcibly move Kyuubi or Madara, the price to be paid wouldn't be bearable by Naruto currently. That was the consequence of using the Grand Book of Kotodama.

If this item was given to Saitama, moving Madara wouldn't give him any impact at all.

First, because Saitama himself was already very strong so the energy consumption was insignificant. Second, the use of this book also looked at how much influence the target had on the user's strength.

To Saitama, Madara wasn't a threat, so the price to be paid would be reduced proportionally.

Seeing the figure before him suddenly disappear, Madara's attack also missed. He turned around quickly and found Naruto was already beside Tobirama with golden-red chakra beginning to flow. His face turned very ugly.

Naruto himself felt something strange. Kyuubi's return this time was different from usual. This time Kyuubi truly accepted him and opened part of the rights to use its chakra. Moreover, because of obtaining the inheritance from Rank One of the Golden List, their relationship was no longer between "sealer and sealed," but rather a partnership contract (symbiosis).

Strange patterns crept throughout Naruto's body. One by one golden-red chakra tails protruded from behind him, and his eye pupils changed to sharp vertical ones.

Kyuubi's chakra nature which was full of hatred's negative emotions shouldn't be bearable by Naruto. However now, because of their symbiotic relationship, those negative emotions had been greatly reduced—at least for Naruto.

Naruto felt a new understanding in his heart, he muttered lowly: "Armorization!"

Instantly, golden-red chakra surged from inside his body, enveloping his entire body like mist that solidified again. Naruto's entire body was now covered by a layer of golden-red armor. His head was also protected by a fox-shaped helmet. In his right hand, appeared a golden-red Kunai as long as a forearm with sharply fluctuating energy.

Kyuubi had successfully chosen its master!

This change made everyone on the battlefield turn their heads. Mesmerized by Kyuubi's power while making others even more frantic; the remaining Bijuu weren't many anymore!

At that moment, Kakuzu who had already targeted one of the Bijuu was about to attack, but suddenly an earth wall rose before him.

That wall then collapsed covering and wrapping Kakuzu as if it were a living thing. The incident was too sudden so Kakuzu didn't have time to react and was swallowed inside.

Simultaneously, a large group of ninjas appeared from the dense forest. Before them were three leaders, one of whom was the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki sitting on a floating earth chunk!

"Terumi Mei!" Onoki shouted.

The Fifth Mizukage, Terumi Mei, understood that signal. She leaped decisively toward Gobi who was trying to escape.

"Don't even think about it!"

The other side seeing this didn't stay still.

Want to seize prey from a tiger's mouth?

Dream on!

Instantly, dozens of human shadows rushed together to stop Mei.

"Suiton: Kirigakure no Jutsu!"

"Futton: Komokidoki no Jutsu!"

"Youton: Youkai no Jutsu!"

While floating in the air, Mei's fingers formed seals very quickly like an illusion. She spewed a large amount of steam from her mouth.

The surrounding area was immediately covered by thick fog that blocked everyone's vision. Not only that, the fog contained very strong corrosive substances.

People who were hit began screaming in pain; some of them who didn't have time to dodge even began to find their muscles and bones melting.

Everyone was horrified and hurriedly retreated.

"Onoki, Terumi Mei, Killer Bee!"

Hiruzen and the others also realized this change. Upon seeing the faces of the newcomers, their expressions changed. Unexpectedly, other ninja villages also came, and apparently they had formed an alliance force.

Mei had now landed on top of Gobi's body, suppressing that Bijuu with her strength and appeared to be communicating.

"Gura-ra-ra-ra! So many strong people here. Kid, I like you, how about you become my son?"

Suddenly, another heavy and strong voice thundered. A tall large body split the sky, appearing in a golden light circle. While holding a naginata, he laughed loudly and pointed toward Madara provocatively.

Madara narrowed his eyes. He recognized this person; he was one of the former Yonko from the One Piece World who now served as a world council member, Edward Newgate alias Shirohige. Beside him, two people in large robes accompanied.

"A battle like this must not be missed by us. My children, are you ready?"

Shirohige's crescent-shaped mustache trembled. He laughed broadly, swung his right arm, and struck the air hard: "Kushin (Air Quake)!"

Visible cracks crept from his fist, spreading crazily toward the front.

The terrifying destructive power made everyone turn pale. The ground split, space seemed torn, and the earth shook violently.

The Gura Gura no Mi's power was truly extraordinary.

"Ladies and gentlemen, listen to me for a moment."

Beside Shirohige, another figure appeared. Short red hair, claw scar on the eye, single hand holding a sword. He smiled calmly while sweeping his gaze across the entire field: "Give me a little face (respect me), how about you hand over all the Bijuu to us?"

That sentence triggered an uproar.

Damn, you say give then give? On what basis?

Many people recognized this one-armed man. He was also a famous figure on the Strongest List, former Yonko, and current World Council Chairman: Red Hair, Shanks!

However, before they could respond, Shanks' eye gaze changed drastically, sharp like a knife. An invisible wave spread quickly in all directions, sweeping the entire battlefield.

Those who were weak directly fainted with whitened eyes. Those slightly stronger felt severe headaches, weak bodies, and staggered almost falling. Only a handful of people with top-level strength weren't affected at all.

Haoshoku Haki was truly terrifying!

"Amazing, Shanks!" Kizaru clapped while laughing. "No mistake, the man said to have the strongest Haoshoku. Finally I can see it today."

Kizaru truly had never fought directly against Shanks. Now he thought, fortunately not, otherwise he might not have been able to return home intact.

Yonko were still Yonko, not a single one of them could be underestimated.
