Chapter 303

303. Chapter 300: Toys Men Cannot Resist

"This is... armor?"

Hozuki Gengetsu's barren brain couldn't understand what the gorgeous armor that suddenly appeared on Silver Horn's body was.

The other two beside him had solemn expressions. From Silver Horn, they could clearly perceive tyrannical murderous intent, and couldn't help but guess whether the Cloud Village had found the correct way to use tailed beasts.

"Hahahaha!"

Silver Horn, who had completed the transformation, first raised his head and roared to the sky a few times, then slowly lowered his head, staring at the three vigilant people in front of him, stiffly tilted his head, and pressed his palm gently on the box at his waist.

"Careful!"

Mu, who had the strongest perception among the three, perceived that the other party was about to make a move for the first time. After shouting a reminder, his whole person spiraled into the sky. Shamon and Hozuki Gengetsu were ready to go, staring wide-eyed at the silver-blue Silver Horn.

"Freeze Vent!"

The three, who were refining chakra, suddenly felt a violent blockage in their meridians. Their chakra seemed to be frozen. Because Mu couldn't maintain the Light-Weight Rock Technique, he fell from the sky and fell into a dog-eating-shit posture.

"Sealing Technique?"

The three, whose chakra was frozen, had the words "Sealing Technique" flash in their minds for the first time, and their hearts couldn't help but sink. Without the blessing of chakra, they were lambs waiting to be slaughtered in Silver Horn's hands.

"Hmph~"

Silver Horn, who had successfully performed the knight's exclusive skill, snorted coldly, then set up a sprinting posture, and disappeared from the spot in the blink of an eye.

"Bang!"

Mu, who was confused, was approached by Silver Horn and hit into the sky with an uppercut.

"Thump!"

Hozuki Gengetsu, crossing his hands to defend and trying to use the Hydrification Technique, took an elbow strike from Silver Horn on his back. His whole person flew horizontally, smashed heavily on a big rock, and spat blood.

"Snap!"

Finally, it was Shamon, who was slapped on his bald head by Silver Horn. He only felt a strong sense of dizziness sweeping through his entire brain.

Killing the three in seconds, Silver Horn only used less than ten seconds. He clapped his hands with some disappointment, and the murderous intent in his heart emerged involuntarily.

"Is this all the level you have?"

"What exactly... are you?"

The three, who hadn't completely lost consciousness, looked at Silver Horn's eyes containing murderous intent with despair, and asked tremblingly.

"Hahaha... who am I?"

Silver Horn grinned a few times upon hearing this question and said slowly,

"I am... Tailed Beast Knight!"

Sure enough!

Kakuzu, who was watching the battle from the side, examined Silver Horn, who had turned into a Tailed Beast Knight, carefully. From the moment the other party took out the transformation device, he confirmed that the other party, like himself, was a knight possessing the power of a tailed beast.

"Matatabi is crying."

Just as Kakuzu was feeling emotional, Gyuki's voice suddenly sounded in his mind again.

"Crying? Could it be that he is different from me?"

Kakuzu asked after hearing this.

"Human, I advise you to leave here quickly, Matatabi is going crazy."

Gyuki didn't answer Kakuzu's question, but instead, contrary to his usual behavior, told him to slip away quickly.

"Yes!"

Kakuzu, who also knew that this place was not suitable for staying long, immediately held his breath and concentrated, lowering his sense of presence to the lowest, and moved his steps to slip away toward a safe direction.

"Where do you want to go?"

A muffled voice came from behind. It was Jin Jiao, who had just escaped from the Swamp of the Underworld. Brothers take turns, and now it was his turn to watch Kakuzu.

"Tailed Beast Knight?"

The defeated trio looked at each other. They really didn't have relevant information.

"That's right! I am the only Tailed Beast Knight in this ninja world!"

Silver Horn, who had turned into a Tailed Beast Knight, didn't show the calmness from just now at all. His whole person's emotions were very unstable, and his crazy tone made people feel cold all over.

No, you are not~

"Gin, you don't seem very surprised?"

Uchiha Hikari, who was in the spectator stand, looked at Uchiha Gin, who was calm beside her, and couldn't help but feel suspicious. Logically speaking, he should be the most grateful for this kind of flashy thing; how could he be so calm this time?

"Huh? I'm very shocked, okay? Didn't you see that my melon seeds even fell?"

Uchiha Gin, whose expression management was not in place, pointed to the melon seeds that fell to the ground and argued repeatedly.

"Mr. Gin, what is this method? Is it a Sealing Technique?"

If it were the untransformed Silver Horn, Uchiha Jiri thought she could take him down, but after the transformation, the girl had no idea in her heart, so she asked her teacher.

"Eh... it added a bit of Sealing Technique component."

Uchiha Gin, with an inexplicable expression, answered with some hesitation in his tone.

Added a bit?

Hearing this answer, the three girls beside him turned their eyes to Uchiha Gin in unison, their eyes full of questioning.

"Curly-haired baboon, what do you mean by that? Do you recognize that box?"

As long as the three girls weren't blind, they could see that the gray box was an important prop for Silver Horn's transformation, and Uchiha Gin seemed to know some inside story.

"More than just recognizing it, that thing was rubbed out by me."

Knowing that the matter of the transformation device would be exposed sooner or later, Uchiha Gin simply showed his cards and generously admitted that he was the father of the knights.

"Hahahaha!!!"

After a brief cold field, Senju Itama laughed first, while Uchiha Hikari and Uchiha Jiri also had teasing smiles, shaking their heads repeatedly, indicating that Uchiha Gin shouldn't blow nonsense.

"Holy crap, that thing was really rubbed out by me! Believe me!"

"Okay, okay, we know~"

"No, this is definitely not the expression of trust!"

"Roar!!!"

Just as Uchiha Gin was trying to prove his title as the father of knights, Silver Horn, who had been stable just now, suddenly let out a roar like a beast, causing everyone to look sideways.

"Not good!"

Jin Jiao, who was staring at Kakuzu, shouted loudly after hearing this roar.

"What's the situation?"

Kakuzu, who also perceived that the roar was a bit bad, couldn't help but ask.

"Rampage."

A trace of fear flashed in Jin Jiao's tiger eyes, and he said to Kakuzu with a heavy expression.

"Don't think about escaping. In the rampage state, Silver Horn will attack all targets within his sight indiscriminately, especially those who try to escape; they will die very miserably."

"What's wrong with him?"

Because Silver Horn fell into a rampage state, the chakra frozen by the three began to flow slowly. Having recovered their fighting strength, they looked at Silver Horn, who was emitting black energy all over, and furrowed their eyebrows.

"Roar!"

Before they could think carefully, the rampaging Silver Horn had already locked his eyes on them. Hearing a roar, the three only felt a flash before their eyes, and blood splashed on their chests.

"The speed is faster!"

The three who flew backward landed on the ground, looking at the claw marks on their chests that were deep enough to see the bone, their hearts sank. They might really die.

"Hey! You guys, if you want to live, help me subdue him together."

Just at this moment, a rough voice sounded behind them. They saw Jin Jiao walking over with a reluctant Kakuzu.

"Why? Such a dangerous thing, I won't do it!"

Hozuki Gengetsu, who had been beaten by the brothers in turn, immediately jumped in anger. For Jin Jiao's words, he was even more disdainful. While speaking, he stepped out and wanted to leave the scene first.

Since he couldn't fight head-on, it was better to slip away first; as long as the green hills remain, there's no need to worry about firewood~

"I advise you not to run."

"Only a fool wouldn't run!"

"Swish~"

As soon as Hozuki Gengetsu turned around, Silver Horn's sharp claws arrived, aiming directly at his heart.

"Holy crap!"

Fortunately, Hozuki Gengetsu's Hydrification Technique was excellent. At the moment before the sharp claws touched his skin, his whole person turned into a pool of liquid, dodging this fatal blow.

"Believe it now?"

Jin Jiao, who retreated to the side, shook his head with a sigh.

"Damn it!"

Hozuki Gengetsu, who turned from liquid to human form, climbed up in embarrassment. Mu and Shamon, seeing this, joined Jin Jiao's camp with a look of understanding.

"I'll explain the situation to you now. My younger brother hasn't fully mastered the power of the tailed beast. Not long after the transformation, there is a certain probability that he will fall into a rampage state. Unless he can be subdued and his transformation device stripped off, he can't return to clarity."

Jin Jiao's eyes moved slightly. Silver Horn's rampage wasn't once or twice. Fortunately, it was in the Cloud Village before, and the big and small Ai, as well as the good hands in the village, could help suppress the rampaging younger brother. Now that the incident happened suddenly, he could only rely on these few stinky fish and rotten shrimp to assist him.

"What's the benefit for us to help you?"

Shamon, who was calculating, raised his hand first and asked.

"Let you survive."

"That doesn't count, it's death anyway, we can completely lie flat."

Shamon indicated that if you don't give a reward, I'll lie flat.

"Ugh... at worst, after it's done, I will share the tailed beast information with you."

After weighing it repeatedly, Jin Jiao said slowly.

"No, we also want information about the Tailed Beast Knight!"

Mu looked at the aggressive Silver Horn and demanded coldly.

"Hmph! Live to talk about it!"

Jin Jiao didn't agree, but didn't refuse either.

"Hey hey hey, what about me?"

Kakuzu, who was left on the side, pointed to himself and reminded inexplicably.

"Sweep for us, if you dare to run away, I will kill you before Silver Horn makes a move."

In Jin Jiao's view, as a rogue ninja, Kakuzu was not qualified to participate in this battle at all. The only reason he could stand here was because he mastered the information of the Seven-Tails; otherwise, he would have become a corpse long ago.

"I..."

Kakuzu was speechless upon hearing this, and Jin Jiao had no time to continue dealing with him. Silver Horn was falling deeper into the rampage state, and his human sanity was about to be swallowed by the power of the tailed beast.

"A-cough!"

Jin Jiao waved his big hand, his whole person turned into a lightning bolt and disappeared from the spot. The remaining few looked at each other, then bit the bullet and chased after him.

"Silver Horn! Wake up!"

Jin Jiao, who activated the Lightning Armor mode, elbowed Silver Horn's chest with a Heavy Flow Violence and shouted loudly.

"Roar!"

Silver Horn, who had lost his sanity, didn't understand human speech at all. He raised his arms, shook Jin Jiao away, and then his eyes under the mask turned red. The sharp claws on his hands grabbed toward his brother without mercy.

"Boom!"

Just at this critical moment, a white light descended from the sky. It was the Particle Style performed by Mu in mid-air. Silver Horn, with keen perception, smelled the danger and immediately gave up chasing Jin Jiao, flashing to dodge the Particle Style.

In the smoke and dust raised, Silver Horn locked his target on Mu, who was panting, and the irritable murderous intent was like substance.

"Bandage man, dodge quickly!"

Mu, who was panting in mid-air, suddenly heard the reminder from below. Turning his head in confusion, he was greeted by a heavy punch carrying ghost-blue fire.

"Ah!"

Mu, who couldn't dodge, was punched in the back. The scorching pain made him unable to help but scream in pain. His whole person screamed and fell from the sky, smashing heavily on the ground, his eyes rolled back, and he was the first to lose his fighting strength.

"Really an idiot!"

Hozuki Gengetsu saw his old rival being killed in seconds and mocked with disdain, but the worry in his eyes grew deeper. He immediately set up his hands, and countless water bullets shot toward Silver Horn.

"Wind Release: Vacuum Sphere!"

Shamon on the side also used his signature ninjutsu, and countless wind bullets spat out from his mouth, aiming directly at Silver Horn.

"Roar~"

Facing the water bullets and wind bullets rushing toward his face, Silver Horn performed unusually calmly, roared in a low voice, and his whole person disappeared from the spot again.

"Where did he go?"

Seeing Silver Horn suddenly disappear, Shamon and the other were shocked and searched everywhere.

"Careful behind!"

Jin Jiao's voice made the two shudder. Hozuki Gengetsu had a previous lesson and used the Hydrification Technique to save his life, while Shamon was not so lucky, taking a solid cat claw from Silver Horn and losing his fighting strength on the spot.

"Sigh..."

Looking at the temporary allies who were defeated as soon as the battle started, Jin Jiao sighed secretly in his heart, his eyes carrying a thick look of solemnity.

When he was rampaging before, it was relying on the perfect cooperation of the big and small Ai, plus the good hands of the Cloud Village, to take Silver Horn down.

Now these guys, although their combat power was okay, had no cooperation at all, and were broken by Silver Horn in minutes.

If he didn't help Silver Horn lift the transformation, his life would be burned out by this armor.

While thinking, Hozuki Gengetsu, who had just escaped a disaster, was found by Silver Horn again.

"Ah!"

They saw Silver Horn, his fists stained with ghost-blue fire, beating Hozuki Gengetsu, who was half-hydrated, until he screamed. After a few breaths, his whole person lay on the ground with a withered expression, becoming the third person to be eliminated.

"That... do you need my help?"

Looking at the three who fell one after another, Kakuzu, who was watching from the side, suddenly spoke.

"Huh?"

Jin Jiao, who was preparing for a desperate fight, was stunned after hearing Kakuzu's words.

"But I charge, my appearance fee is not low."

When the time came, Kakuzu actually had the leisure to promote himself to Jin Jiao.

"Don't know what you're talking about, if you can help me suppress Silver Horn, you can ask for as much as you want."

Jin Jiao just took it as a joke. Looking at the serious Kakuzu, he shook his head dumbly.

After saying that, he stopped bothering with Kakuzu, activated his strongest Lightning Armor mode, threw both fists, and killed his way toward the roaring Silver Horn.

Rushing to Silver Horn's side with lightning speed, Jin Jiao hugged his younger brother, lifted him high in the instant he didn't react, and the violent Lightning Release burst out in his palm, carrying the power of ten thousand jun, and smashed Silver Horn heavily on the ground.

"Lightning Neck!"

"Boom!"

The power of the super heavyweight smashed a big pit several meters deep in the ground. Jin Jiao retreated a few steps, looking at his trembling hands, feeling emotional in his heart.

Although it was still a bit inferior to the Raikage, he didn't know if Silver Horn could take it.

"Roar!"

He thought Silver Horn would faint under this move, but he didn't expect him to climb out of the pit staggeringly. The eyes full of murderous intent made Jin Jiao's heart tighten.

"Thump!"

The next moment, Silver Horn's sharp claws had already appeared in front of Jin Jiao, scaring him into hurriedly stretching out his hands to defend, but he was still beaten flying for several meters.

"Cough cough!"

Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Jin Jiao looked at his younger brother with a complex expression, then as if he had made some decision, his big mouth opened and spat out a gourd.

"It has come to this, I can only use this."

Jin Jiao, holding the red gourd, flashed and landed in front of Silver Horn, holding the gourd high, waiting for Silver Horn to speak.

"..."

However, time passed second by second. Silver Horn suddenly became very quiet, not making a single sound. From the eyes under the mask, Jin Jiao could actually see a trace of humanized mockery.

"Don't waste your energy, human."

The female voice suddenly coming from Silver Horn's mouth really gave Jin Jiao a fright. Since when did his younger brother become a younger sister?

"Who are you?"

Jin Jiao, who didn't dare to be careless, furrowed his eyebrows and asked.

"Who am I? This human ambushed me and sealed me in this strange card. You are asking me who I am now?"

The female voice became more excited as she spoke, and the tyrannical aura in her words made Jin Jiao suddenly realize.

"You are the Two-Tails! Give me back my younger brother!"

"Hmph~ self-righteous, this is the punishment for trying to manipulate my power. His life is about to come to an end~"

Hearing the Two-Tails' explanation, Jin Jiao's heart was in turmoil. He couldn't care about continuing to use the red gourd, exploded his Lightning Armor, and killed his way over again.

"Although I hate this human very much, I have to say, the human body is really easy to use."

Seeing Jin Jiao rushing toward him, the Two-Tails stretched out a hand calmly, and a pitch-black light ball condensed in her palm, expanding to half a person's size in a short while.

Tailed Beast Bomb mini version

"Boom!"

With nowhere to hide, Jin Jiao had to face the Tailed Beast Bomb head-on. Following a violent explosion, Jin Jiao's burly body slowly fell down.

"Cough cough cough..."

Fortunately, his body, trained all year round, saved his life, but Jin Jiao, who had lost his fighting strength, could only watch Silver Horn's back as he turned and left. If this continued, it wouldn't be long before his younger brother's vitality would be squeezed dry by it.

"Gin, should we make a move now?"

Uchiha Hikari, who had endured for a long time, looked at Silver Horn with glowing eyes. This kind of rare opponent was not common. If she missed it, she didn't know how long she would have to wait.

"No rush, aren't there still people standing?"

Casting his eyes on the silent Kakuzu, Uchiha Gin spoke slowly.

"Where are there still people standing? Aren't they all lying on the ground with their mouths open and eyes closed?"

Now on the battlefield, the only one standing was Kakuzu. Looking at Silver Horn's back as he was about to leave, he walked to Jin Jiao, who was coughing blood, and said,

"One hundred million, I'll help you take him down."

"Huh?"

Didn't expect that even at this time, Kakuzu still had the heart to joke. Jin Jiao suppressed the blood surging up his throat and answered.

"Are you choosing money over your life?"

"No, only children make choices, I want them all!"

"Fine, fine, fine, if you can really do it, I'll give you one billion!"

Jin Jiao, who was laughed at by anger, couldn't help but shout. In his view, all of them had been beaten down by Silver Horn; a mere rogue ninja from a small ninja village dared to speak big words, clearly not wanting to live.

"It's a deal! Give me a written note first~"

Kakuzu's eyes lit up, and he quickly took out paper and pen from his bag, writing it down. After a short while, he wrote the contract.

"Sign it~"

"Are you crazy? Are you for real?"

Jin Jiao, who was confused, signed the contract in a daze. Kakuzu looked at the note in his hand with wet ink with satisfaction, smiled, put it away, then stood up, took out a shuriken with a bit of wind and frost, and threw it toward Silver Horn.

"Ding~"

It could be seen that the quality of this shuriken was not very good. It flew crookedly and grazed Silver Horn's shoulder, sticking into an innocent tree trunk.

"Human, do you want to die?"

Facing the naked provocation, Silver Horn turned his head slowly, asking with cold eyes.

"Take people's money, eliminate disasters for people."

Kakuzu faced the Two-Tails' tyrannical murderous intent, his face showing no fear.

Does this kid not want to live?

The trio, who had slowly woken up, looked at Kakuzu, who had thrown the shuriken at Silver Horn, and a similar thought flashed in their minds.

"Strange, that's why I can't understand humans."

The Two-Tails controlled Silver Horn to turn around, and ghost-blue flames appeared on his hands.

Kakuzu faced the scorching blue flames, his face showing no fear. He saw him slowly reach his hand into the bag behind his waist, and in the horrified eyes of everyone, he took out a box with the same style as Silver Horn, immediately causing a commotion.

"Ah! How come he also has that strange box?"

"Give me one too~"

"Link! Hurry up and link!"

Sure enough, the belt is a toy that all men cannot resist.

"Who exactly are you?"

"I am..."

Kakuzu, who just wanted to answer, suddenly felt a hot pain on his face, so he shut his mouth, then took out a golden-shining card from his close-fitting clothes.

"That is... Gyuki?"

The Two-Tails looked at Kakuzu's movements with a solemn expression. When he saw him pull out a card radiating the aura of the Seven-Tails, the Two-Tails almost dropped his chin. He didn't expect that besides him, there were other tailed beasts trapped in prison.

"Lord Divine Beast, please lend me your power!"

Holding the card in his hand high, Kakuzu had a look of determination on his face. He saw him put the card in front of him and requested very sincerely.

The card immediately flashed with dazzling light, as if responding to his request.

This operation made the Two-Tails look stupid. How come it was different from his own way?

"Thank you, Lord Divine Beast!"

Having obtained the Seven-Tails' permission, Kakuzu immediately set up his stance, one hand dragging the transformation device, the other hand holding the card, and slowly inserted it into the card slot on the side.

"Gyuki! Seven-Tails Gyuki! The invincible rhinoceros beetle!"

Accompanied by the electronic sound in the belt, Kakuzu, with deep eyes, pushed the belt and shouted softly,

"Henshin!"

"Turn Up!"

A wall engraved with a rhinoceros beetle appeared in the void, slowly hitting Kakuzu. He didn't dodge, but bravely faced it. As the human body shattered the barrier, the silver-white rhinoceros beetle knight appeared in front of everyone.

"He is actually also a Tailed Beast Knight!"

Hozuki Gengetsu, who was lying on the ground, had his pupils shake violently. He didn't expect that this rogue ninja he looked down upon before was actually a warrior possessing the power of a tailed beast.

"No wonder the whereabouts of the Seven-Tails were unknown; it turns out it has always been on him."

Jin Jiao, who knew the origin of the Tailed Beast Knight, looked at the Tailed Beast Knight Kakuzu had transformed into with a complex expression. While feeling emotional, he also felt a bit of luck; his younger brother might be saved.

"Let's fight!"

Slowly pulling out the short blade at his waist, Kakuzu, who had transformed into a Tailed Beast Knight, felt an inexplicable sense of destiny in his heart. Looking at the sneaking tiger that was gradually falling into mania in front of him, he said coldly,

"People who become knights will bear the fate of being unable to escape battle." (End of chapter)
