Blue chakra markings from the Eight-Tails spread across its right arm.
"Nine-Tails, I'm not the same as I was back then either. Here we go."
With a burst of strength, the Eight-Tails pushed the Nine-Tails back.
At the same time, it sent Killer B's consciousness into the Nine-Tails' seal space.
After a brief moment of darkness, Killer B arrived at a place that looked remarkably like an altar.
"So this is the Nine-Tails' seal space?"
Killer B muttered to himself.
At that moment, voices echoed through the area.
Killer B quickly listened carefully.
"Big Fox, are you even trying? It only has eight tails. You've got nine, and you still can't beat it?"
Kushina complained.
This was her first real battle, after all.
How could she possibly lose?
And losing to another jinchūriki made it even harder for her to accept.
"Quit talking nonsense. If you've got the guts, remove my seal. Then just watch how I deal with that Eight-Tails."
The Nine-Tails ground its teeth in frustration.
If not for this cursed seal,
how would that Eight-Tails punk ever have the right to act so arrogantly in front of it?
"Hmph. Remove your seal? The first people you'd attack would definitely be us in the Hidden Leaf Village. Big Fox, do you think I'm stupid? You expect me to trust a sly fox like you?"
Kushina wore an expression that said she'd seen right through its intentions.
That only made the Nine-Tails even angrier.
Could there be just a little trust?
Where had the trust between humans and tailed beasts gone?
Sure, it planned to attack Konoha eventually, but it hadn't done it yet!
How could that be a reason not to trust it?
"Oh? We have a guest."
Kushina turned her head and noticed the uninvited Killer B.
Killer B also noticed the Nine-Tails tied up from head to toe.
Do all Konoha jinchūriki play like this?
Bondage play?
Wow. That's intense.
"Idiot! Where are you looking?!"
The Nine-Tails exploded in rage.
It noticed Killer B constantly glancing toward certain private areas and instantly became furious.
Didn't you humans have any sense of shame?
"Sorry. Sumimasen."
Killer B apologized sincerely.
He wasn't even sure why he was apologizing, but instinctively felt that this was the kind of situation where one should apologize.
"Hahahaha! That's killing me! You're little Killer B from the Hidden Cloud Village, right? Come on, call me onee-chan."
"O-Onee-chan?"
"Ah, that's better. Onee-chan accepts. Follow me from now on. As long as I've got food to eat, there'll be something for you to drink."
Kushina was overjoyed.
Success! She had just gained her first little follower for Konoha.
Killer B finally realized what had happened.
She'd taken advantage of him.
"Idiot! Baka yarō! How dare you take advantage of me! Die!"
"Lightning Release: Lightning Blade."
Killer B instinctively tried to use a jutsu, but his hand grasped at empty air.
"Damn it. I forgot this is only my consciousness. I can't use ninjutsu here."
"Hahahaha! You're way too adorable. I'm definitely going to ask Minato to spare your life. You're just too interesting."
Kushina became even more determined to recruit him.
With that clueless expression of his, if he didn't become her little brother, what else could he be?
"Hmph. We'll definitely win this war. Me and Eight are the closest partners imaginable. Your relationship, built on mutual exploitation, could never compare to the bond we share."
Killer B declared confidently.
Seeing that the Nine-Tails was still restrained put him at ease.
Without working together wholeheartedly, there was no way they could defeat him and Eight.
"Big Fox, looks like he's looking down on you."
"Let me out, Kushina. I swear I'll only attack people from the Hidden Cloud Village. I swear it in the name of a tailed beast."
The Nine-Tails was furious.
Being bullied by Konoha was one thing.
But what was this insignificant nobody?
How dare he look down on it?
"Hehe. I don't believe you."
The very first thing Grandma Mito had taught her was to never trust a single word spoken by a tailed beast.
"Damn it."
Being distrusted felt awful.
Was the Nine-Tails' credibility really that low?
It hadn't deceived anyone for decades, okay?!
"But I'll help you get revenge. Sorry, Big Fox. Your recreation time is over."
"Wait, let me do it myself—"
...
Outside, the Nine-Tails suddenly froze.
The Eight-Tails blinked in surprise.
It sensed that B had returned.
"B, what's wrong?"
"Eight, be careful. That terrifying woman is coming."
"Terrifying woman?"
"ROAR!"
The Nine-Tails let out a sky-shaking roar.
An even more terrifying chakra erupted from its body, forcing the Eight-Tails to retreat continuously.
"Damn it. Is this the Nine-Tails' true power?"
"No. That's the woman."
"B, who exactly is this woman you're talking about?"
"The woman is—"
"Super Strength Punch."
The Nine-Tails instantly appeared before the Eight-Tails.
One punch slammed directly into its abdomen.
The blow nearly sent the Eight-Tails' eyeballs flying out.
But it wasn't over.
After sending the Eight-Tails flying, the Nine-Tails grabbed several of its tails tightly.
Then it began spinning in place.
"Windmill Spin!"
Violent winds erupted, tearing apart the surrounding landscape.
The spectators elsewhere all reacted differently.
Ōnoki: So this is the Nine-Tails? What overwhelming power.
Senju Hideki: That's definitely Kushina. The Nine-Tails would never do something like that.
Meanwhile, A was fleeing while clutching the stump of his severed arm.
"B, hang in there! I'm coming to save you!"
Whoosh!
"Lightning Blade Technique: Musō Slash."
A bolt of lightning shot past A at incredible speed.
"Damn it, missed again. He's too fast. It's really hard to control."
"Four-Eyes, aren't all you Hidden Cloud Village guys supposed to be macho men? Why are you the only one running?"
A didn't answer.
He simply kept fleeing.
If I can win, I'll fight head-on.
But if I can't win, then what's the point?
Do you really think everyone in the Hidden Cloud Village is a brainless idiot?
Our bottom line is actually very flexible.
"Sage Art: Beast Wave Gale Palm."
Inuzuka Ryoha blasted away the White Zetsu and Karatachi Yagura in front of him with a wind-style senjutsu attack.
Then he glanced toward the giant spinning object inside the Hidden Cloud Village.
"Minato, your wife is doing pretty well. She's beating the Eight-Tails senseless."
"Hahaha. Kushina also wants to contribute to Konoha."
Minato replied with a bashful smile.
An opening!
"Flying Thunder God: Second Step!"
"Rasengan!"
With an incredibly swift second-stage teleportation,
Minato appeared beside Uchiha Obito.
"Not good!"
Obito raised an arm to block.
The Rasengan's violent rotation instantly destroyed the arm he had raised.
The kind of destruction that left nothing but powder.
Taking advantage of the moment,
Obito retreated to Zetsu's side.
He tore off his ruined arm.
Zetsu immediately understood what he intended.
Stretching out one of his white arms, he offered it over.
With a quick motion,
Uchiha Obito performed a seamless hand replacement right in front of everyone.
The movement was so smooth that "silky" wasn't enough to describe it.
Karatachi Yagura was shocked once again.
As expected, the Hidden Mist Village was still too backward.
So this was how people on the mainland treated injuries nowadays.
