Chapter 351 The Beast's Tribulations
Chapter 351 The Beast's Tribulations
In the distance, on a high cliff.
Boruto Uzumaki and Satsuki Uchiha were hiding here, watching the battle in the distance that had exceeded their wildest imaginations.
When Satsuki saw Naruto and Sasuke display near-perfect teamwork, executing a fluid and coordinated taijutsu technique that repeatedly struck Urashiki in mid-air like a sandbag, he was greatly surprised.
"This is... 'Lion Barrage'?"
She murmured to herself, this move was all too familiar to her—it was a martial arts combo that she had developed by borrowing some of Might Guy's martial arts concepts, combining them with her own body coordination.
Did the "me" from another world also develop the same technique?
But... is that really the power that 'physical techniques' can achieve?
The mere aftershocks of their fist and foot strikes were enough to tear the earth apart, uproot layers of soil, and blast powerful enemies like Urashiki into repeated crashes like meteorites, causing collapses within a radius of hundreds of meters... This far exceeded her understanding of "physical arts," and was more like a clash between human-shaped natural disasters!
The scale of this battle was truly terrifying. Urashiki chose this outskirts, not too far from Konoha Village, as the vibrations and light from each collision and each burst of energy were clearly transmitted towards the village.
Inside Konoha Village, a weakened Hiruzen Sarutobi, after listening to the Anbu's initial report on the terrifying battle in the distance, and combining it with Urashiki's attack and Naruto's hasty departure, had roughly pieced together the cause and effect. He immediately issued orders.
The village, which had just recovered some order from the "Konoha Collapse" plan, had to be mobilized again to organize the villagers to evacuate.
On the cliff, Zuo Yue clenched her fists tightly. The devastating battle scene in the distance deeply impacted her heart with every detail.
Can I really reach that level in the future?
The thought surfaced uncontrollably, carrying a hint of...loss that she herself was unaware of.
Ever since the Konoha Collapse Plan, this sense of loss had been quietly lingering in her heart, but she had managed to conceal it well.
Naruto's strength was rapidly widening the gap between them at a speed she couldn't comprehend. The two, who could once fight side by side and even compete with each other, were now, when faced with a real crisis, she could only be "sent" away from the battlefield by Naruto using the Flying Thunder God Technique, becoming someone who needed to be protected.
This realization was undoubtedly a heavy blow to a proud Uchiha, a Uchiha who longed to become stronger, to protect, and to fight alongside those important to him.
Even with her pride, faced with Naruto's terrifying, seemingly limitless strength, she couldn't be sure if she could truly catch up with that golden figure if she devoted her entire life to it.
And now, another "self" from the future is standing there. He hasn't even used the legendary, more terrifying eye power yet; he has already displayed such overwhelming strength simply through physical skills, swordsmanship, and tactical coordination.
Excited? Of course. It's a possibility for her future, a "self" powerful enough to fight alongside Naruto, or even dominate the battle.
Boruto was also keeping a close eye on the battlefield. He was well aware of his own limitations; with his current strength, intervening in a battle of this level would not only be unhelpful but could also become a hindrance.
Fortunately, both the "father" of this world and his own master seemed to be handling the battle with ease.
—Until those five enormous "nine-tailed beasts" descended upon the center of the battlefield!
The pseudo-Nine-Tails, possessing the five elements, stood on the earth, its immense chakra and violent aura clearly perceptible even from a great distance.
Naruto and Sasuke, standing in the center like ants, appeared so small.
The next moment, the five colossal beasts, each with a different attribute, simultaneously raised their massive, sky-covering tails, as large as mountain ridges! Driven by the Nine-Tails' chakra, the destructive power of the five attributes transformed into five torrents of destruction, crashing down from five different directions toward the central point!
At that moment, Boruto's heart almost jumped into his throat!
"roar--!!!!!!!"
However, just as the five destructive attacks were about to converge and completely crush that one point...
A powerful, unassailable roar suddenly erupted from the center of the attack!
"boom------!!!!!!"
Immediately afterwards, the golden torrent of chakra, originating from that central point, swept wildly in all directions without reservation.
"Whoa—!!"
The massive tail of the five pseudo-Nine-Tails, crashing down, was uncontrollably pushed backward by the incredibly huge golden chakra wave, carving deep furrows in the ground!
Golden light swept across the battlefield like a tsunami, dispelling the chaotic flow of chakra of all attributes and temporarily suppressing the roars of the five giant beasts.
Standing at the very center of the circle of five pseudo-nine-tailed beasts is a colossal beast whose entire body radiates a dazzling golden light—the true nine-tailed beast!
The presence and pressure emanating from it completely surpassed the five "fakes" with different attributes around it!
Naruto Uzumaki—Full Tailed Beast Transformation Descends!
The true tailed beast faced off against a counterfeit behemoth created based on its power, but imbued with the five elements.
"Finally decided to come out, you fox! Let me see just how capable you are!"
Standing atop the Nine-Tails of Earth, Urashiki gazed down at the real Nine-Tails below, which shone like a golden sun, and suddenly raised his mutated arm high.
"【Amazuha Meteor Fate - Dragon Palace】!"
Om-!
An ominous purplish-black chakra gathered wildly, instantly condensing in front of his palm and transforming into a rotating four-pointed star-shaped energy array!
A faint light flashed at the center of the array, and a giant oarfish, composed entirely of purplish-black energy and with a ferocious shape, burst out from it!
Its enormous mouth gaped open, brewing a purplish-red chakra sphere with a diameter of over ten meters, churning with destructive energy!
"roar--!!!"
Almost at the same time that Urashiki unleashed his ultimate technique, the five Nine-Tails of different attributes surrounding him also let out a deafening roar! Obeying the will of their creator, they simultaneously opened their ferocious maws, each composed of its own attribute!
Positive and negative energies condensed simultaneously, and five enormous Tailed Beast Balls, radiating destructive energy, rapidly took shape within the five giant mouths. They locked onto only one target—the golden figure in the center!
This was the first time Naruto had ever so directly felt such immense and diverse destructive energies from multiple directions simultaneously locking onto him!
Don't hide!
The judgment became clear instantly. The saturation attack, covering an extremely wide area, would be difficult to completely evade even with Kurama's agility. However, this was contingent on Naruto not knowing the Flying Thunder God Technique.
The real reason they couldn't hide was that Konoha Village was just a short distance away! Boruto and Satsuki were also watching the battle from a distant cliff! Any missed attack, or the aftershocks of the explosion spreading outwards, could cause irreparable catastrophic consequences!
They must all be stopped! And guided to a safe area!
"roar--!!!"
The golden Nine-Tails roared to the sky, advancing instead of retreating. Its nine enormous golden tails rose up like a peacock spreading its tail feathers, weaving together to form an incredibly thick chakra shield in front of it!
"…….boom!!!!!!!"
The next instant, the crimson "Ame-no-Hara Meteorite" orb struck the golden tail shield first! Five tailed beast balls, from different angles, slammed into various areas of the tail shield one after another!
An explosion and energy annihilation that defied description occurred in an instant! Six destructive forces erupted simultaneously, and blinding light engulfed everything.
Great! Naruto felt he still had energy left. The pressure wasn't as great as he'd imagined; it seemed he was stronger than he'd anticipated.
"Naruto!"
Suddenly, a calm voice rang out from inside the golden nine-tailed fox.
Sasuke Uchiha stood beside Naruto. In his eyes, the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan and Rinnegan shone.
"Use this together!" Sasuke placed his only remaining hand on Naruto's shoulder.
"I lend you my power!"
As soon as the words were spoken, "Buzz—!!!"
An extremely pure and powerful Yin Release chakra surged from Sasuke's body and, through the connection in his arm, was injected into Naruto's body without reservation!
On the external battlefield, the golden nine-tailed fox, which was resisting six attacks, suddenly underwent a tremendous change in its body!
Amidst the dazzling golden chakra, a deep, solidified purple energy began to spread rapidly! This purple energy constructed at an astonishing speed.
The first part covers the torso and limbs, forming a thick and streamlined breastplate, shoulder armor, arm armor, and leg armor!
Next came the head, a majestic purple helmet adorned with horns that protected the Nine-Tailed Fox's head, revealing only its burning beastly eyes!
Finally, there were the nine enormous tails, each wrapped in a magnificent spiral of purple ribbon armor, with sharp purple energy blades condensing at their tips!
In an instant, the originally golden Nine-Tails transformed into a colossal war beast clad in magnificent purple armor—Kurama Susanoo Mode!
"Clang!"
With a buzzing sound, purple energy gathered in the right claw of Susanoo Kurama, condensing into a huge purple energy katana nearly a hundred meters long!
"...This is...Susanoo?!"
The Nine-Tails' voice resonated within Naruto, tinged with complexity and displeasure. It recognized the aura of this power; it was one of the most unpleasant memories of its long life.
"Hmph, what unpleasant memories..." Kurama muttered, but its voice quickly turned fierce and excited. "However, if it wasn't being manipulated, it's not so unacceptable. Naruto, teach those imposters and their masters a lesson! Go!!"
"Whoosh!!! Boom boom boom boom boom—!!!"
The next moment, something happened that caused Pu Shi's pupils to shrink sharply!
The nine enormous golden tails, encased in purple Susanoo armor, suddenly unleashed tremendous power! They exerted their strength and lashed outwards with tremendous force!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Boom—!
The five Tailed Beast Balls, along with the purplish-black energy oarfish and its attack, were instantly and simultaneously repelled by the brute force fused with Susanoo's power!
They transformed into colorful meteors, streaking across parabolas as they flew far from the main battlefield, eventually crashing into the desolate mountains and forests far from Konoha Village.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
A series of earth-shattering explosions echoed in the distance! Even from a great distance, one could see the massive mushroom clouds rising and the colorful lights illuminating half the sky! The power of each one was enough to wipe half of Konoha Village off the map! Fortunately, they were all directed to the no-man's land.
"Wh...what?! Damn it—!!!"
Urashiki, who had meticulously prepared and was determined to win, was instantly countered by his opponent in such a domineering and even somewhat "casual" manner! Urashiki, who had been unable to pose any real threat to Naruto and Sasuke and had repeatedly suffered setbacks and exhausted all his trump cards, finally broke through completely.
"Just die already!! You damned lowly creatures—!!!"
Rage completely consumed his reason. Urashiki no longer attempted sophisticated tactics or ranged attacks, but instead chose the most direct method—commanding the five Nine-Tails of different attributes to use their massive bodies as weapons, launching a fierce attack from all directions towards the purple-gold Susanoo Nine-Tails in the center!
Faced with the five elemental beasts surging in like a tsunami, Susanoo Kurama simply lowered its head, which was covered by a purple helmet.
"call--!"
The mere wind pressure generated by the movement of the colossal object created a terrifying howl in the air, like a hurricane passing through! A sharp light flashed in the crimson eyes of Susanoo!
"oh--!!!!!!"
Naruto and Kurama's wills were completely synchronized, unleashing a roar that shook the heavens and earth! He poured all his own power, along with all the power Sasuke had lent him, into the enormous purple energy katana held in Kurama's claws without reservation!
The katana instantly unleashed a brilliant purple-gold light that illuminated the entire battlefield.
Immediately afterwards, Susanoo Kurama swung the blade that carried the full power of the two of them, centered on itself!
A massive, circular, purplish-gold blade of light, centered on Susanoo and Kurama, swept outwards with overwhelming force, spreading outwards.
"boom----------------!!!!!!!"
The delayed roar and the burst of energy finally erupted!
The five Nine-Tails, which were either pouncing or had just regained their footing, suddenly froze in mid-air.
Then—starting from their waists, a smooth, mirror-like purplish-gold cut appeared simultaneously!
Whoosh—!!!
Five colossal beasts, each nearly a hundred meters tall, were simultaneously and neatly severed in half by this earth-shattering circular slash!
The upper and lower body slowly separated and slid down.
The earth, rocks, flames, water, storms, and lightning that make up their bodies, having lost the support and control of the core chakra, can no longer maintain the form of the behemoths.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The remains of the five pseudo-Nine-Tails exploded with a deafening roar, transforming into five torrents of chakra, each with a different attribute but equally violent and chaotic, sweeping outwards before... completely dissipating into the world.
All five types of pseudo-Nine-Tails have been wiped out!
