Chapter 88: Great Ball Rasengan
"Yo-ho! This Great Me is finally out!"
Shukaku, having transformed into a colossal beast, roared toward the sky.
The sound was deafening.
But due to Yakushi Kabuto's Genjutsu, the vast majority of people had fallen into a deep sleep and did not see this plump tanuki.
It was truly fat.
But it was also somewhat cute.
It reminded Naruto of the Garfield he had seen in his previous life.
The originally spacious arena was entirely occupied by Shukaku.
Naruto glanced around.
The Konoha Jonin had all broken the Genjutsu and were fighting alongside each other against the Otogakure and Suna ninja.
Kakashi and Sasuke were still on their way.
Naruto split off two ordinary clones.
One was to have Sakura release the Genjutsu on Ino, Kiba, Karin, and the others, and take them away from the battlefield for the time being.
A Jonin-level free-for-all was far too dangerous for them.
To deal with enemy attacks, Konoha had built shelters in various places throughout the village.
Naruto directly told them to go to the Hokage Rock.
After all, in his impression, the two safest places in Konoha were the Ichiraku Ramen Shop and the Hokage Rock.
The other clone went to see Hinata's group of three.
Except for Hanabi, Hyuga Hiashi and Hinatainstantly broke the Genjutsu.
"Hanabi is too young, I'll take her back first."
Hyuga Hiashi scooped up Hanabi and instructed, "You go to the medical room and inform Neji."
Neji had suffered minor injuries in the previous battle, and with his Chakra nearly exhausted, he was in some danger.
"Yes."
Hinata looked at Naruto's clone and said, "Naruto-kun, be careful."
"He will be fine."
Hyuga Hiashi saw things far more clearly than his daughter.
Sage Mode plus Rasengan.
Shukaku was not a particularly large threat to him.
Moreover, he was the son of the Fourth Hokage, Minato.
Seeing this, Naruto's clone dispelled the Ninjutsu.
"Tsk, you fat bastard, are you done being happy? It's time for you to cry!"
In the Tailed Beast exclusive channel.
Kurama spoke in a disdainful tone.
Shukaku was enraged: "You stinky fox, this Great Me is going to tear your mouth apart!"
Even if losing, one mustn't lose face.
Although it knew it couldn't win, it would talk a big game first.
"Come on then! Who's afraid of who!"
Kurama directly stuffed Naruto's body full of its Chakra.
A golden light radiated from his surface.
The magatama and markings of the Six Paths Sageappeared on Naruto's body.
Nine-Tails Chakra Mode activated.
Infinite power surged forth.
Naruto directly grabbed its tail.
He couldn't fight here.
Otherwise, all these onlookers would die.
"Hah!"
Naruto exerted force with both arms; the over twenty-meter-tall Shukaku felt its head spin, its entire body began to rotate, and then it flew off like a cannonball.
Hiruzen Sarutobi and Orochimaru, noticing his actions, looked as if they had seen a ghost.
When had they ever seen someone throw a Tailed Beast?
Naruto's body turned into an afterimage and vanished.
"Sensei, let us begin our battle."
Orochimaru suppressed the astonishment in his heart; now that the stage was set, he could not give up halfway.
Sensei, let me give you your final dignity.
"Someone once told me not to underestimate you, so let's be direct."
Orochimaru held up his index and middle fingers, and three plumes of smoke rose before him.
Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had been relatively calm, suddenly widened his eyes.
Three people he was more than familiar with.
The First Hokage, Senju Hashirama.
The Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama.
The Fourth Kazekage, Rasa.
Hiruzen Sarutobi pointed at Orochimaru and said angrily, "Orochimaru! You actually toy with the dead?!"
Orochimaru laughed carelessly and said, "This technique wasn't developed by me, right, Second Hokage-sama?"
Senju Tobirama looked expressionless.
He hadn't expected his forbidden technique would eventually be used on himself.
Senju Hashirama, however, complained, "Besides Water Release, you developed nothing but all sorts of messy forbidden techniques!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi only felt his hands and feet go cold in broad daylight.
It was usually a struggle to fight one, and now there were three... "Kid! You're looking for death!"
Shukaku, caught off guard, was thrown into the sky to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the sun.
Its two small fat hands slammed hard against its belly.
Wind Release: Air Bullets!
A super massive wind ball formed.
The moment it appeared, it frantically pulled in the surrounding air.
Then it burst forth with astonishing speed.
"Now!"
Kurama shouted, acting as a coach.
Naruto didn't speak.
Although the wind ball was fast, his speed in Nine-Tails Chakra Mode was even faster, comparable to the currently fastest man in the Ninja World, the Raikage.
Massive Chakra condensed in his hand.
They spun, spinning continuously.
Finally, a super Rasengan with a diameter exceeding his height appeared before Naruto.
"Eat this Rasengan, Shukaku!"
His figure flashed, and he directly sent this Great Ball Rasengan into its mouth.
From Shukaku hearing his voice to subconsciously swallowing the orb that was stuffed in, less than half a second passed.
It was somewhat dazed.
By the time it reacted, its mouth first went numb, followed by pain and splattering flesh.
Shukaku couldn't help but scream in agony.
The mouth was definitely one of its most vulnerable spots.
"Hahaha!"
In contrast was the infinitely arrogant Kurama, "You still dare to talk about tearing my mouth apart, now look whose mouth is being torn!"
Shukaku was driven mad with rage.
This was adding insult to injury!
Being beaten up, and then being mocked by the fox.
"I'm telling you..."
Its words were interrupted.
Naruto grabbed its tail and slammed it back and forth on the ground.
Booming sounds continued.
"What did you say?"
Naruto stopped and asked in surprise.
"Stinky brat! This Great Me is going to kill you!"
Insult!
A blatant insult!
Shukaku finally couldn't take it anymore; it immediately pulled away, opened its mouth which hadn't had time to heal, and used its ultimate move.
Tailed Beast Ball.
A viscous pressure filled the air.
A huge black sphere, like a Rasengan, was filled with countless Chakra.
It was enough to distort one's vision.
"You're mad! You're mad!"
Kurama continued to taunt.
Naruto increasingly felt that this guy was quite mean and asking for a beating.
He reached out his hand.
The golden light fluttered outward, containing countless spinning black lines within.
That was Sage Chakra at its extreme speed.
The rotation triggered a storm.
The energy of the entire world seemed to converge in Naruto's hand.
Sage Art: Super Great Ball Rasengan!
The void suddenly shook.
Shukaku, located at the center of the explosion, howled in pain.
Its Tailed Beast Ball had condensed too slowly.
Causing it to bloom directly in front of its face.
A third of its massive body was directly sliced off, and the heavy flesh turned into sand and fell one after another.
The ground split apart, and with the staggering weight, dozens of large craters were smashed out.
The trees within were even more so cut by the wind waves.
Forming a circle.
Naruto looked at this half-Taiji diagram and felt like throwing another Super Great Ball Rasengandown.
After all, he had OCD.
The asymmetry was very uncomfortable to look at.
But he thought about it, and Shukaku's body probably couldn't take it.
Naruto descended.
The dust and smoke dissipated.
There was no trace of Shukaku, only the sleeping Gaara remained.
"Did it run directly back into the body?"
Naruto chuckled.
Tailed Beasts can be afraid too.
Kurama opened the exclusive channel, loaded up some trash talk, and began to vent frantically at Shukaku.
Naruto ignored it and walked in front of Gaara.
"Poor guy, have a good sleep."
He activated Kagura Minds Eye.
In Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, the range was incredibly vast.
Are you finally here?
Sasuke.
Your brother has been waiting for you for a long time.
He turned again to the battle between Orochimaruand Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Facing a situation with one more Kazekage than in the original work, Hiruzen Sarutobi had to use the Reaper Death Seal ahead of time.
The situation was very unfavorable for him.
Naruto withdrew Kagura Minds Eye, picked up Gaara, and disappeared from the spot.
Outside Konoha, Temari and Kankuro, who were rushing frantically, immediately stopped in their tracks.
They were looking for Gaara.
After all, he was the most important part of the plan.
But they hadn't expected Naruto to throw him directly to who-knows-where.
"Who?"
Temari and Kankuro were on high alert.
The next moment, they saw a terrifying scene.
The unconscious Gaara suddenly appeared.
"You... you... you..."
The two were too shocked to speak.
Gaara was unconscious, while Naruto was unscathed.
The implications of this were something they completely dared not imagine.
"I'm leaving Gaara to you."
Naruto left.
He had more important things to do.
The two of them knelt directly on the spot, gasping for breath, completely losing their composure.
Clearly, there was no killing intent on Naruto, but he made them feel a heartfelt fear.
Thanks to big boss Xiyingyou for the tip.
