396. Chapter 388: Disconnected and lurking to the final circle
"Are you trying to use the Tailed Beast's true body to contend with Susanoo?"
Tobirama Senju in the spectator stands looked at the giant phantom running in the sky, shook his head gently, and a faint disdain flashed in his scarlet eyes.
"A dying struggle."
Uchiha Madara in the arena, seeing the phantom that was about the same size as his Susanoo, frowned in confusion.
Although this group of chakra originated from the Eight-Tails, it was mixed with Kinkaku's aura, and its appearance was slightly different from the Tailed Beast local he remembered.
"Ha!"
Kinkaku, who felt Gyuki's heart, nodded, then leaped up and merged into the giant phantom in the sky.
"He jumped in!"
Surprised shouts came from the spectator stands. However, the next scene shocked them into silence.
"Roar!"
Only to hear the giant phantom running in the sky let out a heaven-shaking roar, and the hazy figure began to condense.
Just when everyone thought the true body of that group of phantoms was the Eight-Tails' true body, a harsh buzzing sound entered everyone's ears, just like the noise generated when a huge chainsaw rotated.
"Hum! Hum hum! Hum hum hum~"
"That... what is that?"
Among the F6 sitting in a circle, the only female, Koharu Utatane, widened her black eyes, staring straight at the giant figure appearing in the sky. Because of the surprise
"Holy crap! So cool!" *5
And the other five people beside her, after a brief silence, exclaimed in unison.
"Lord Divine Beast, can you do this move? I want to play too!"
In the newly formed family, Kakuzu looked blankly at the giant beast in the sky. After coming to his senses, he immediately dialed Chongming's phone.
"Get lost!"
The Seven-Tails in the sea of consciousness coldly spat out a word, then kicked Kakuzu out.
"Rumble~"
The sturdy ox body was cast from retro-colored steel, the eight mechanical tentacles on the lower body made creaking sounds, the eyes of the ox head carried the red light of lasers, and the once sharp ox horns turned into two rapidly rotating drills. The noise just now came from them.
The body, flashing with metallic luster, was covered with pores of all sizes. Every time it moved, scorching flames would erupt from them.
"This, this, this..."
Chiyo, sitting beside Uchiha Gin, had eyes full of brilliance at this time. Looking at the giant steel beast in the sky, full of mechanical aesthetics, she was so excited that she couldn't even speak.
"This is a Geki Tailed Beast."
Uchiha Gin, sitting to the side, said without even turning his head.
"Machine Tailed Beast?"
"Uh... that's not wrong either."
Uchiha Gin curled his lips, didn't explain further, and instead raised his head to look at the mechanical Eight-Tails in the sky, a faint expectation rising in his eyes.
In the original work, Tailed Beast Jinchuriki were not only extremely strong individual weapons but also huge war machines that could influence the direction of war.
When conducting large-scale battles, Jinchuriki who could skillfully use Tailed Beast power could achieve complete Tailed Beast transformation, exerting the power of the Tailed Beast to the greatest extent.
But complete Tailed Beast transformation was only limited to dealing with ordinary enemies. When facing Mangekyo—no, it should be veteran Mangekyo ninjas—they would only be reduced to small pets to be manipulated at will.
That's right, at this time, one should @ a certain heroine who fought head-on against a perfect Jinchuriki while using Mangekyo, only to almost flip the car.
As an aggregate of chakra, Tailed Beasts also had an existence similar to a physical body, so they were somewhat difficult to handle when facing Mangekyo pupil techniques.
But!
Abandoning consciousness and entrusting all power to Kinkaku, the Eight-Tails successfully achieved mechanical ascension. The once suffering flesh and blood turned into indestructible steel.
This brand-new body, while having all attributes improved, could also completely immunize against the influence brought by Mangekyo.
"Boom!"
"Roar!"
After the mechanical Eight-Tails landed, a harsh roar came from its huge mouth. In the red-flashing laser silver, there was actually a hint of faint provocation.
"Let me see if you are really just a facade."
Uchiha Madara in the Susanoo cockpit looked at the giant beast sitting on equal footing with him, his brows slightly furrowed. The patterns in his eyes began to rotate, and the profound pupil power turned into a hypnotic genjutsu.
"Roar!!!"
As a result, this genjutsu was like a stone sinking into the sea, not stirring up any waves. The mechanical Eight-Tails was still in that arrogant posture.
"Hahaha! This is fair!"
Kinkaku's gong-like voice rang out inside the mechanical Eight-Tails. At this moment, he was standing in a cockpit full of technological sense.
Through the high-precision laser silver embedded in the eye sockets of the Ox-Ghost, he could clearly see Uchiha Madara in the Susanoo cockpit.
"Tsk!"
Uchiha Madara clicked his tongue inwardly, swept his eyes over the body of the mechanical Eight-Tails, a flash of faint envy in his eyes. He turned his head and stood in front of the dumbfounded Nine-Tails, speaking in an unkind tone.
"Can you do it?"
"Ah... I seem to... not be able to."
The Nine-Tails shrank its tail, pondered for a moment, and answered cautiously.
"Useless thing! What use are you to me?"
With this level, it dared to call itself a "Speed-Pasa-Q" Tailed Beast; it was simply naked fraud. Uchiha Madara glared fiercely, then flicked his sleeves and left in anger, leaving the terrified Nine-Tails to grieve in place.
No, that guy Ox-Ghost still hid this kind of move?
"I admit you have something, but it will disappear soon."
Returning to reality, Uchiha Madara exuded a gloomy aura.
The ancestral motto of the Uchiha clan: if you can't get it, destroy it!
"Come on! Let me show you the bond between me and Old Eight!"
Kinkaku in the cockpit raised his fist resolutely, and the standing mechanical Eight-Tails made the same action.
"Forming a bond with this kind of thing, how lonely are you, guy?"
Looking at the mechanical Eight-Tails charging at him while shouting about bonds, Uchiha Madara mocked coldly.
His eyes condensed, and he manipulated Susanoo to draw the hundred-meter-long great sword from his waist. With a spread of his wings, he met the mechanical giant beast roaring with internal combustion engines.
"Bang!!!"
The two galloping figures collided. The high-speed electric drill on the top of the mechanical Eight-Tails jammed Susanoo's long sword. While sparks splashed, blue Susanoo fragments danced in the sky like snowflakes.
"Good strength, worth praising."
Uchiha Madara in Susanoo raised his eyebrows in surprise. The opponent could actually block his weapon, and in the competition of strength, he didn't fall behind.
"Haha, when it comes to strength, Old Eight has never been afraid of anyone!"
Kinkaku laughed and confidently gestured at his sturdy muscles.
"However, that's all."
Uchiha Madara curled his lips, and profound pupil power was poured into the Susanoo under his feet like it was free. The reinforced blue Tengu eyes flashed with a bright light.
In the astonished eyes of everyone, two arms stretched out from behind it.
Long swords grew from the palms of the newly added two arms, slashing down toward the head of the mechanical Eight-Tails at an extremely fast speed.
"Clang!"
However, before a look of victory could appear on Uchiha Madara's face, two sturdy arms blocked the falling long sword.
"Swoosh~"
At the same time, eight dexterous tentacles quickly wrapped around Susanoo's arms. The tentacles, full of hydraulic transmission shafts, oozed pitch-black viscous liquid similar to engine oil, dripping onto Susanoo and corroding it with bursts of foul-smelling thick smoke.
Looking at the restrained arms, a flash of impatience appeared on Uchiha Madara's face. He thought he could easily crush this mechanical Tailed Beast, but he didn't expect the opponent to not only be immune to his genjutsu manipulation but also have endless means, leaving him not knowing where to start.
"Not good! Clan Leader seems to have fallen into a passive situation."
Uchiha Kagami on the spectator stand, although his heart was somewhat biased toward the handsome mechanical Eight-Tails, Uchiha Madara was his own clan leader after all.
In the face of right and wrong, he still chose to sacrifice the small family for the big one, painfully cutting ties with the mechanical Eight-Tails, and wholeheartedly supporting Uchiha Madara, who was at a disadvantage.
"Kagami! Don't be so surprised, his level is more than this."
Senju Tobirama, who understood the Uchiha better than the Uchiha themselves, waved his hand at his anxious disciple, signaling Uchiha Kagami to be calm. If Uchiha Madara only had this level, it wouldn't be his turn to be Hokage.
Having not encountered such a weird opponent for many years, Uchiha Madara immediately restrained the contempt in his heart and began to face the ferocious steel giant beast in front of him.
At this time, all four of his arms were controlled by the opponent. If he abandoned the long sword in his hand, the mechanical Eight-Tails' drill ox horns would penetrate Susanoo's defense in the first instance, and his small body might not be able to block that drill that broke through the sky.
"Since that's the case..."
Uchiha Madara, looking for a way to break the situation, set his eyes on the opponent's wide-open chest. The pupil power in his eyes was instantly released, and an abrupt arm stretched out from the back of Susanoo again, the palm lighting up with dazzling blue light.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~"
A series of magatama-shaped energy balls were all poured onto the chest of the mechanical Eight-Tails, triggering a violent explosion.
"Huh?"
Seeing this scene, Uchiha Gin was instantly dumbfounded. When did his cousin research this kind of method again? Could it be a brain hole born after being tied up in various ways by Hashirama last time?
"Cough, cough, cough... that really hurts!"
Kinkaku, who was filled with damage by the Yasaka Magatama, stood up tremblingly from the cockpit, clutching his chest with a painful expression.
His neural synchronization with the mechanical Eight-Tails meant that not only was the sense of impact real, but he would also feel the same if attacked.
Taking advantage of Kinkaku's breathing space, Uchiha Madara controlled Susanoo to swing away the restraint of the tentacles and retreated a few steps to distance himself from the mechanical Eight-Tails.
"May I ask, who are you defending against with so many hands behind your back?"
The wound on the chest of the mechanical Eight-Tails healed automatically. Kinkaku stood up, rubbed his still-aching chest, and asked with curiosity.
"Can't I do it if I want to?"
Uchiha Madara, who was naturally sensitive to his back muscles, had a tight face, and his tone of answer was very stiff. Thinking of Senju Hashirama still wandering in front of the Pure Land gate, he raised his sword again.
Looking at the aggressive Uchiha Madara, Kinkaku felt a little bitter in his heart. After all, the purpose of their brothers' participation this time was not to win the final victory, but for a certain white-haired person currently in the spectator stand.
In order to snipe Senju Tobirama, their brothers had to maintain a good state, and fighting Uchiha Madara was just going with the flow; they didn't want to reject the Uchiha clan's face.
But who could have thought that Ox-Ghost, facing his nemesis Nine-Tails, would be so full of fighting spirit, even revealing his trump card of giant battle, making Kinkaku somewhat in a dilemma.
"Clang!"
Blocking Uchiha Madara's Susanoo long sword, Kinkaku began to think about the aftermath of the battle.
"I don't know if Silver Horn has finished it over there?"
To avoid Senju Tobirama running away, their brothers had to enter the field at the same time.
As for victory, wasn't it already designated by Mr. Gin for his cousin?
At this time, in an inconspicuous corner of the battlefield, a standing blue tiger was stepping on the ground full of yellow sand, looking for something around.
"Haven't found the trace of that bald head yet?"
The silver wild tiger knight walking slowly complained somewhat angrily.
"Roar~"
The blue tiger shook its head, a humanized look of helplessness appearing on its face.
"Damn bald head, ran away after acting cool!"
Just now, Shukaku, who had taken over Sand Gate's account, was rubbing his hands and preparing to teach all the younger brothers present a lesson. As a result, within a few minutes, the arrogant it was beaten to the ground by Silver Horn, which could be considered as not even passing the first level of the Tiger Vanguard.
Just like that, after being beaten by Silver Horn and the blue tiger summoner for a long time, Shukaku, knowing it had no power to resist, immediately turned into a wisp of quicksand and merged into the field card it had laid out, preparing to wait for an opportunity to counter-kill the stinky cat knight.
"If you don't come out again, I'll throw all this sand away!"
Looking at the boundless yellow sand in front of him, Silver Horn had a feeling of powerlessness like a fist hitting cotton. Looking at the few knights left in the whole field, he threatened through gritted teeth.
"Idiot stinky cat, come find me~"
Shukaku's teasing voice rang out. Silver Horn raised his hand and threw a blade light wave, smashing toward the source of the sound.
"Boom!"
However, the attack only blew up a cloud of sand, and Shukaku's annoying voice still reverberated in his ears.
"Nyah nyah nyah, how could you stinky cat find King Shukaku~"
"Hoo~"
Silver Horn took a deep breath, then leaped up and stood on a protruding rock, looked down at the boundless yellow sand, and said coldly.
"This is what you forced me to do!"
A card ejected from the card box at his waist. After catching it, Silver Horn slowly pushed it into the driver's card slot.
"Freeze Vent!"
Accompanied by the electronic sound, a yellowish-brown figure lying behind a sand dune not far away instantly stiffened. Shukaku, who was still full of pride, had eyes full of horror.
"Little Silver Coin, over there!"
The perception AOE attack hit the target, and Yugito's excited voice rang in Silver Horn's ears.
Following the direction it pointed, Silver Horn soon discovered the Shukaku knight lurking in the yellow sand.
"You bald head, you made me look for you for a long time!"
Looking at the Shukaku knight whose color perfectly blended with the yellow sand, Silver Horn walked over pinching his fists, with a posture of wanting to make him look good.
"Let you run, eat my punch first!"
Silver Horn raised his sandbag-sized fist and, in Yugito's gloating gaze, smashed heavily onto the crouching Shukaku knight.
"Eh?"
The soft feeling made Silver Horn freeze. Looking at the Shukaku knight on the ground, it had already turned into a pile of collapsing sand sculptures.
"Hehehe, who do you think I am? How could this kind of sealing technique work on me?"
Shukaku's voice rang out again. Silver Horn was just about to turn around, but found that the arm he had just swung was out of control. Looking down, it turned out to be entangled by yellow sand with life.
【Sand Binding Coffin】
"Do you think this kind of move will work on me?"
Silver Horn shook his head, shook off the yellow sand entangled on his arm, and stood up proudly.
"I know, of course~"
Shukaku's cheap voice came from all directions. Silver Horn frowned upon hearing this; did the opponent have any other backup?
"Playing god and ghost."
Curling his lips, Silver Horn was just about to leap up and leave the yellow sand, but found his body as heavy as if it had been filled with lead.
"What did you do?"
Stabilizing his staggering body, Silver Horn looked around with a gloomy face, trying to find the opponent's figure.
"Haha, do you feel your body is very heavy?"
Shukaku's head stretched out from the gravel not far away. Looking at Silver Horn, who was struggling to move in place, it couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Is it sand..."
Raising his hand, Silver Horn prepared to give the arrogant raccoon a shot, but the heaviness from his arm made him somewhat surprised. Looking down carefully, he found that strands of fine sand, invisible to the naked eye, were constantly drilling into the gaps of his armor.
The heaviness just now was caused by these sands.
"Stinky cat, you are now a piece of meat on my chopping board. Call me 'Grandpa' twice first to make me happy~"
Shukaku, who had achieved his goal, stood up from the sand. Its cheap appearance made the people in the spectator stand feel their fists itching.
"This guy is too despicable, it simply damages the name of a knight!"
As individual hidden knight fans, looking at the triumphant Shukaku knight, they couldn't help but curse angrily.
"Shut up, Teacher is not that kind of person!"
Chiyo looked at Shukaku's operation and also pinched her fists with shame, but still couldn't help but defend her teacher.
Although every contestant in the field was a senior ninja before becoming a knight, this kind of method could only be considered pediatric in the ninja circle.
But now they were all fighting as knights, and using this kind of low-down method was hard not to cause public anger.
"How is he not that kind of person? Dare to do it but dare not admit it?"
Danzo curled his lips in disdain. He approved of Shukaku's behavior, but this behavior of being both a whore and wanting to set up a memorial arch made him unable to help but mock.
"It's not Teacher!"
"Then who is he?"
"Idiot raccoon, eat shit!"
Yugito was jumping up and down in Silver Horn's sea of consciousness. It thought its great revenge was about to be avenged, but it didn't expect to fall into the trap of Shukaku, this idiot. It would be a loss of face to say it out later.
"So he is not that bald guy~"
"Huh? Little Silver Coin, you just know now?"
"No, I thought he had a middle-school illness."
After communicating with Yugito, Silver Horn finally realized that the Sand Gate who had just transformed into a yellowish-brown knight was not himself, but had been stolen by the Tailed Beast.
"Hehehe, you can choose to be silent, but I hope you can bear the extreme humiliation that follows."
Shukaku looked at the silent silver-blue knight, stretched out its fingers with a bad smile, and several sand pillars rose from the ground, attacking Silver Horn.
"The collision between dry sand and moist rectum will definitely spark different sparks~"
Manipulating the sand to change into various ferocious rod-shaped objects with a teasing look, Shukaku didn't know at all that it was about to face a catastrophe.
"Let me see, this meteor hammer is not bad~"
Shukaku, smiling, manipulated a large meteor hammer to approach Silver Horn, preparing to leave the other party with an unforgettable shadow. As a result, the shadow that suddenly appeared on the ground made it stop its movements in surprise.
The meteor hammer also stopped at Silver Horn's chrysanthemum at the same time.
"Uh... hello~"
Turning his head suspiciously, Shukaku discovered that the blue wild tiger monster that had touched over at some unknown time was standing behind it, grinding its sharp claws and looking at it covetously. Cold sweat the size of beans flowed down instantly.
"Wild Tiger, take it for a spin."
Relaxing the tense groove with lingering fear, Silver Horn let out a long sigh, then ordered the eager wild tiger summon beast.
"Crystal Break!"
Shukaku, hugged by the wild tiger summoner, could only watch helplessly as the other party pressed it onto the sand.
With tyrannical force and invisible restraint, no matter how much it used its milk-feeding strength, it couldn't break free, turning into a human sand sled on the spot.
"Don't~"
Just like that, Shukaku began to enjoy the happiness of being dragged. The wild tiger summon beast's two legs moved fast, making Shukaku, who was facing down, eat a lot of sand.
"Sure enough, the One-Tail knight is the weakest knight, unable to even defeat the Two-Tails' summon beast."
The people in the spectator stand shook their heads one after another when they saw this scene.
"Teacher! Come on! You are the trump card!"
Only Chiyo believed that her teacher would not fail easily, so she stood on the seat, waved her arms hard, and cheered for Sand Gate loudly.
"Pfft, pfft, pfft~"
Spitting out a mouthful of sand, Shukaku, who was still being dragged, felt a burst of sadness in its heart. It calculated everything, but still missed Silver Horn's summon beast. It thought it was a stupid decoration, but didn't expect the AI level to be not low.
"Is that? The bald guy's apprentice? Really noisy, still counting on this idiot bald head at this time."
"Shukaku! Give me back the account!"
Complaining about Sand Gate, whose account had been easily stolen by it, Shukaku curled its lips in disdain. As a result, the next moment, a voice full of rage rang in its ears.
In Sand Gate's sea of consciousness, there was boundless yellow sand. Just now, when Shukaku stole the account, it casually buried him in the depths of the desert. Didn't expect this bald head to crawl out from the bottomless abyss.
"If you don't return the body to me, I will..."
"Okay! I'm full, I'll return it now!"
Sand Gate, who had just straightened his waist, was preparing to use both soft and hard tactics to let Shukaku return control of the body, but didn't expect the other party to agree so readily. Before he could say anything, he felt a spin of heaven and earth.
"I, Sand Gate, am back... cough, cough, cough!"
Sand Gate, who regained control of the body, just wanted to announce his return, but the sand filled in his mouth made him unable to speak for a while.
"I only went offline for a while, and you already fought to the boss's second stage for me?"
Barely raising his head, Sand Gate saw the blue wild tiger summon beast playing drift with him on the sand, and fell into deep decadence. His account was considered scrapped.
"Teacher! Come on!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice rang in his ears. Sand Gate caught a glimpse of Chiyo with an anxious face on the spectator stand. The heart that had just become decadent was instantly full of fighting spirit.
Reaching out to his waist, he took off the Shukaku buckle. The surrounding yellow sand instantly disappeared. Sand Gate took the opportunity to turn sideways, escaped from the claws of the wild tiger summon beast, and rolled to the side.
Standing up, Sand Gate scanned the whole field and was surprised to find that except for the two of them, there were only two big guys fighting not far away left, and all other knights had exited.
"No, I just went offline for a while, why is it already in the final circle?" (End of chapter)
