Chapter 451: 395. Chapter 387: You promised a Knight Battle, and you

395. Chapter 387: You promised a Knight Battle, and you're playing a Giant Battle?

Speaking of the grudges between the Nine-Tails and the Eight-Tails, it can be traced back a thousand years. Back then, the Nine-Tails, relying on the favor of the Sage of Six Paths, didn't treat the other Tailed Beasts as beasts at all; workplace bullying was a daily routine.

Among them, the Eight-Tails was the primary target of the Nine-Tails' suppression.

What kind of level are you, a guy who is neither a cow nor a fish?

You actually dare to rank below me?

This eventually led the amphibious Eight-Tails to choose to go into the sea, thereby avoiding the bullying of the Nine-Tails.

This peaceful life didn't last long before the reincarnated brothers, Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju, appeared out of nowhere, once again allowing the Tailed Beasts to have a long-awaited, intimate exchange. Among them, the Eight-Tails faced the Nine-Tails again, and it still ended in a miserable defeat.

However, the Eight-Tails wasn't always in a passive position. In the most recent clash, the Eight-Tails and the Two-Tails, with the bonuses from the Knight System, finally managed to pull back a point and successfully cut off the Nine-Tails' "junk," which could be called a great victory worth remembering.

"Human, as long as you can slaughter this stupid cow, I will agree to anything you want!"

In Madara Uchiha's sea of consciousness, the Nine-Tails, trembling with excitement, gritted its teeth and spoke. Its aggressive attitude was like a different beast compared to its previous "lying flat" state.

"Are you ordering me around?"

Slowly opening his scarlet eyes, Madara Uchiha glanced indifferently at the Nine-Tails lying in front of him, his voice exceptionally cold.

"No, no, I'm just begging you a little bit. Aren't we in a cooperative relationship?"

Sensing the extremely chilling ocular power, the Nine-Tails subconsciously tucked its tails and covered its sharp-toothed mouth, appearing very submissive.

"Cooperation? You are nothing more than a dog I keep."

Madara Uchiha shook his head in disdain.

"You!"

Hearing this, the Nine-Tails was instantly furious. To think that it, the dignified King of Tailed Beasts and the favorite little pet of the Sage of Six Paths, was being treated like a dog by this brat.

It would report him to the Pure Land!

"Hmm?"

"Woof~"

Forget it, this brat is the reincarnation of Indra, which is basically the old man's son; being his dog isn't a loss of face.

"Madara Uchiha, the candidate for the Second Hokage of the Hidden Leaf Village, right?"

Kinkaku crossed his arms, his expression still ferocious, but his tone was much better than when he faced Tobirama Senju earlier.

"I'll be confirmed soon."

Touching a sore spot, Madara Uchiha had been in the position of Hokage candidate for over a decade; his internship was longer than most people's terms. But as long as he won this match and saved Hashirama, he could officially take office!

"What a coincidence, I'm almost there too, but for the Third."

Because of certain reasons, Kinkaku, who had no prejudice against Madara Uchiha and even felt a bit of affinity, actually started chatting with him.

"Are we that close?"

Looking at the fleshy-faced Kinkaku, Madara Uchiha frowned. Counting the meeting before the match started, they had only met twice; they shouldn't be that close, right?

Could this muscular hunk be naturally friendly?

"Not really, but I think you're a good guy."

Kinkaku shook his head. The name "Uchiha" alone was enough to earn the respect of his brother and him; after all, the Otsutsuki clan back then was only able to be preserved with the help of the Uchiha clan.

"Saying so much is useless. I won't show mercy."

Feeling baffled, Madara Uchiha looked suspiciously at Kinkaku, who was exuding some strange goodwill, and warned him sternly.

"Our purpose in this trip isn't to win the championship, but if you want to spar, I'm happy to oblige."

Kinkaku knew the person in front of him was the younger brother of Gin Uchiha. Although it was a cousin, he was still a younger brother, wasn't he?

Not wanting to spoil the mood of his benefactor's family, Kinkaku, who understood social nuances, lowered his hands and took out a gray driver from the backpack behind him, while pulling out a card shimmering with golden light.

"Gyuki! Eight-Tails Gyuki! Overbearing Water Buffalo!"

Skillfully pushing the card into the slot, the electronic sound of the belt rang out. Kinkaku moved his left hand in front of him, forming a claw shape, his voice very low.

"Henshin!"

"Zombie! Ready Fight!"

Viscous black ink gushed out from the driver, pouring onto the purple bull-head armor that appeared out of thin air. The overbearing Gyuki Knight appeared before everyone.

"Is that the strongest Tailed Beast Knight of the Hidden Cloud Village? Feels a bit strong."

In the spectator stands, Choji Akimichi, who was chugging a cup of milk tea, couldn't help but feel a bit worried as he watched Madara Uchiha facing the domineering purple bull-horned knight.

"According to intelligence, the Eight-Tails Knight's mission completion rate is one hundred percent; he has never failed."

Homura Mitokado pushed up his glasses and shared the recalled intelligence with his companions.

"Ah? Then the Clan Leader..."

Kagami Uchiha felt a tightness in his heart upon hearing this. This...

"Don't worry, that guy Madara Uchiha is also one hundred percent."

Tobirama Senju, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke, his eyes fixed on Kinkaku's burly figure, feeling a faint sense of unease in his heart.

"Little Jin-Jin, if the opponent is him, you can't let your guard down."

After Kinkaku successfully transformed, the Eight-Tails in his sea of consciousness looked seriously at the white fox knight in front of him.

"Don't worry, I have my own measure."

Shouldering the giant blade full of sharp teeth, Kinkaku confidently took a step forward.

The battle was imminent. Madara Uchiha watched Kinkaku walking slowly toward him and didn't dawdle. He flicked his gun-blade, and several lasers shot toward the wide-open purple bull knight at an extremely tricky angle.

"Whoosh~"

"Crackle! Crackle!"

The lasers hit the target without any suspense. When they collided with Kinkaku's armor, they made a harsh explosion, and gray dust instantly rose up.

Madara Uchiha frowned, feeling that things weren't that simple.

"Creak~ Creak~"

The unscathed purple knight seemed not to have suffered any attack and was still moving as fast as flying. Seeing this, Madara Uchiha's long-hidden fighting spirit burst forth. He flicked his hand to convert his weapon into sword form and charged toward Kinkaku.

"I hope you won't be like those two guys, starting with a bang and ending with a whimper."

Wielding the longsword in his hand, Madara Uchiha's slightly excited voice reached everyone's ears.

Kinkaku grinned. Naturally, he wouldn't let Mr. Gin's brother down. He shrugged his shoulders, lifted the ferocious serrated giant blade with one hand, and met the aggressive Madara Uchiha.

The purple knight's seemingly bulky body was incredibly agile, and the heavy-looking giant blade was lifted as if it were weightless in his hands.

"Clang~!"

The weapons collided, making a harsh sound. Madara Uchiha felt the immense force coming from the longsword, and the fighting spirit rising in his eyes became even more scorching.

"Good, good, good! You also have the qualifications to dance!"

"You're not bad either, much stronger than that white-haired guy who hides his head and shows his tail."

"Heh heh~"

Kinkaku's words hit the mark for Madara Uchiha. He found the ferocious hunk in front of him much more pleasing to the eye, and his aura wasn't as overbearing as before.

"Swish!"

After testing their strength, the two held their weapons and retreated simultaneously to open up distance. It seemed their strength was evenly matched.

"Give me more power."

After landing, Madara Uchiha patted the fox buckle on his waist, and the Nine-Tails inside immediately and sensibly opened the chakra supply.

"Coming~"

The surging Tailed Beast power instantly gushed out, wrapping around Madara Uchiha in the blink of an eye. As fire-red patterns appeared on his body, the enhanced form powered by the Nine-Tails' strength made its debut.

"Oh my~ I was wondering why it looked a bit weird before; it turns out that Nine-Tails guy was cutting corners~"

Gin Uchiha, who was sitting in the spectator stands enjoying the match, witnessed the entire upgrade process of his cousin and slapped his forehead in sudden realization.

It turned out that the Nine-Tails Knight form Madara Uchiha transformed into only had sparse red patterns; only after filling them up was it the proper Great Fox God form!

"Again!"

The feeling of being filled with power made Madara Uchiha very high. The eyes under his mask began to glow with a scarlet color, and three mysterious tomoe slowly rotated within them, the aura he emitted suddenly increasing several times over.

"You can actually get stronger."

Looking at the more magnificent-looking Madara Uchiha, Kinkaku frowned. But before he could react, the white and red knight was already in front of them, the longsword in his hand carrying a dazzling blue light, slashing toward his face.

Kinkaku, who had no time to dodge, made the best response in a flash. He held the serrated giant sword with both hands and lifted it high, intending to block this world-destroying blow.

"Clang!"

"Pfft!"

The longsword wrapped in blue light slashed onto the serrated giant sword, making a heaven-shaking sound. A brutal force invaded, and Kinkaku, holding the weapon, couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

So strong!

Kinkaku only felt his blood surging in his chest, and the giant sword in his hand almost slipped away. But fortunately, Madara Uchiha retracted his longsword in time, giving him a chance to catch his breath.

"Wasn't your tone pretty tough just now? Why can't you do it anymore?"

Madara Uchiha, who had evolved into the complete Fox God, looked at Kinkaku, who had blood seeping from the mouth area of his mask, and spoke indifferently.

"I admit, you are the strongest knight I have encountered so far, but wanting me to admit defeat is still a bit lacking."

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Kinkaku felt the blood all over his body boiling; these were the bellicose factors hidden deep in his bloodline.

"We, the Otsutsuki clan, are the descendants of the Sage of Six Paths!"

Kinkaku's soaring fighting spirit successfully activated his bloodline power. The driver at his waist sensed this power and quickly materialized it.

"What is that?"

The people present looked at Kinkaku, who was glowing with dazzling light, all with confused expressions. Gin Uchiha, however, showed a thoughtful expression.

Kinkaku not only performed a live card-rubbing session, but he also rubbed a big one.

Although in the original Naruto story, the more prominent descendants of the Sage of Six Paths were only the Uchiha and Senju clans, and the plot revolved around them,

the Gold and Silver brothers, who only appeared a few times, were also genuine descendants of the Sage of Six Paths with atavism, and the power in their bloodlines could not be underestimated.

Power from the concubine's son~

"This power..."

Uchiha Madara looked at Gold Horn, who was holding his arm high, with surprise. The aura emanating from the other party gave him a very familiar feeling, and the faint throbbing in his bloodline did not seem fake.

"Hoo~"

The light soon dissipated, and everyone saw that Gold Horn, who was panting heavily, had a golden card in his raised hand, appearing out of nowhere.

"Ancestor, I will not bring shame to you!"

Looking at the golden card in his hand, a trace of fanaticism appeared on Gold Horn's face, and then he inserted it into the other card slot of the driver.

"I will defeat... all the Tailed Beast Knights!"

"Zombie!"

"Zombie!"

"HitFeverZombie~"

The silver bull horns began to grow longer and thicker, and were stained with a dazzling gold. A cape symbolizing strength extended from his back, half a golden skirt was added to his waist, the armor on his legs became thicker, and his right foot also gained orange tentacles like his left hand.

Although the changes in appearance were not many, the aura emanating from Gold Horn was several times deeper than before. He slowly raised his yellow compound eyes, and the fighting spirit in them was like substance.

"Oh yeah! Little Goldie, you've succeeded~"

The Eight-Tails witnessed the entire process of Gold Horn purifying his bloodline power and clapped his hands in excitement to celebrate.

As a Tailed Beast created by the Sage of Six Paths, how could Gyuki not be familiar with this aura? This was the power belonging exclusively to Otsutsuki Hagoromo. It was truly not easy for Gold Horn, as a descendant of that concubine's lineage, to be able to keep this power so pure.

"Not bad power, but it doesn't even amount to half of mine."

Uchiha Madara narrowed his eyes. Regarding this power that Gold Horn had burst out with, he felt a faint disgust from the depths of his soul, like the disdain a legitimate son feels when looking at a concubine's son. He then raised the white longsword in his hand.

"I will end this match."

Gold Horn looked at the extremely arrogant Uchiha Madara and also raised the giant sword in his hand.

"Don't think you can be self-righteous just because you have two trashy bull horns on your head!"

The white figure turned into lightning and disappeared from the spot. The next moment, the longsword wrapped in blue light slashed toward Gold Horn once again.

But this time it was different. Facing the blow that had been difficult to resist just a moment ago, Gold Horn did not choose to block with his giant sword, but instead puffed out his chest and let the white longsword slash at him.

"Crack!"

Hearing a teeth-grinding sound, Uchiha Madara looked at Gold Horn's unmarked chest armor in surprise, and looked down at the longsword in his hand in disbelief.

"Impossible, how are you fine?"

"Yeah, I'm also curious, how is your sword fine?"

Gold Horn reached out and patted the dust off his chest armor, saying indifferently.

"Snap!"

In Uchiha Madara's horrified gaze, his prized companion weapon, the white longsword, actually began to shatter, and in no time at all, it turned into light particles and disappeared from his hand.

"Now it's my turn."

Gold Horn shook his neck, raised the serrated greatsword with his right hand, placed the blade in the palm of his left hand, and pulled it hard.

"Hum! Hum-hum!"

A harsh noise rang out, and the serrations on the greatsword actually began to rotate at high speed, accompanied by a scorching aura that made one's whole body feel cold.

"Getting slashed by that thing definitely won't feel good."

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the chainsaw in Gold Horn's hand and swallowed his saliva subconsciously.

"It's more than just not feeling good; it'll be hard to even leave a whole corpse."

Koharu Utatane shrank her neck in terror, not daring to imagine the consequences of being sawed.

"Hum!"

Gold Horn brandished the violent chainsaw. Uchiha Madara dodged to the side, wanting to create some distance, but he didn't expect the other party's movements to be unexpectedly flexible, almost sticking to him and following.

"Hum-hum-hum!"

Seeing that the saw teeth were about to hit his face, Uchiha Madara, unable to dodge in time, gritted his teeth. The pupil power of his eyes began to materialize, and blue, heavy armor instantly covered his body, intending to block Gold Horn's attack.

"Screech! Screech! Screech!"

The saw teeth slashed onto the Susanoo armor, emitting a harsh explosion. Seeing that he had successfully blocked the attack, Uchiha Madara finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Crack..."

But before he could be happy for too long, a crisp sound of breaking shells rang in his ears. He looked up in astonishment, watching the blue fragments flying all over the sky. He quickly tilted his neck, narrowly dodging the chainsaw that was aimed directly at his face.

"Rip!"

However, the rotating saw teeth still grazed his shoulder, tearing the white armor to shreds while taking away a large chunk of flesh and blood.

"Ah!"

Uchiha Madara, feeling the pain, kicked Gold Horn in the chest, and his body flew backward, landing ten meters away.

"Hoo~ Hoo~"

Uchiha Madara, clutching his wound, panted slightly. He turned his head and looked at the hideous wound that had already begun to heal automatically, a flash of doubt passing through his eyes.

Ever since Uchiha Madara became a Tailed Beast Knight, he had never been injured again. If it weren't for this wound, he would have almost forgotten the color of his own blood.

"To be able to injure me, this achievement is enough for you to brag about for a lifetime."

Uchiha Madara stood up, looked at the burly Gold Horn from a distance, and said slowly.

At this moment, I have to mention Danzo~

Throwing a kunai from eight hundred miles away and bragging about it for decades.

"Enough talk, let's see the real deal in action."

The inexplicable fighting spirit in Gold Horn's heart urged him to raise the serrated greatsword in his hand again and run toward Uchiha Madara aggressively.

"I've been underestimated."

Uchiha Madara shook his head. The power of a knight was just icing on the cake for him. As a member of the Uchiha clan, his greatest reliance was still this pair of invincible divine eyes.

As the scarlet in his eyes became deeper, the tomoe in Uchiha Madara's eyes began to spin rapidly, turning into a bewitching pattern in the blink of an eye. A cold and obscure aura instantly covered the entire battlefield.

"Uh..."

All the Tailed Beasts present, the moment they sensed this aura, subconsciously shrank their tails, their large beast eyes filled with painful memories.

"Little Goldie! Don't! Sigh~"

The Eight-Tails only hated that he had grown fewer tentacles and couldn't hold back the charging Gold Horn, so he could only watch him rush toward that terrifying reincarnation of Indra.

"Takoyaki seems to taste better than steak~"

Gyuki, feeling desolate in his heart, began to deduce his own method of death, such as which kind of food would be more popular if he were made into it.

"Rumble!"

The blue armor on Uchiha Madara's body began to expand, and in the blink of an eye, a blue Tengu giant rose from the ground. In front of it, Gold Horn looked like an ant crawling forward, appearing so insignificant.

"Huh?"

Gold Horn, who had been excitedly wanting to have a big fight, looked at the huge blue giant, and the chainsaw in his hand was so shocked that it stalled.

He didn't expect the other party to disregard martial virtue and directly start a giant battle.

"I won't get angry at a child, but unfortunately, you are not a child."

Uchiha Madara controlled Susanoo to draw its samurai sword and slash toward Gold Horn on the ground.

"Damn it! Too despicable!"

Dodging the giant blade, Gold Horn was furious.

"There is no such thing as despicable when it comes to power."

Shaking his head, Uchiha Madara had no regrets about his cheating behavior. Besides, the knight battle didn't say you couldn't use your own power, right?

"It's a good thing I built the stage big enough, otherwise it really wouldn't have been able to fit a Gundam."

Uchiha Gin, in the spectator area, looked at the majestic blue Gundam and couldn't help but sigh at his own foresight. He had considered before that some people might start a giant battle, but he didn't expect to actually guess it right.

"It's over, it's over, how are we supposed to fight this?"

In the sea of consciousness, the Eight-Tails was devastated, recalling the friendly time he had spent with Gold Horn over the years. Those bits and pieces of memories gathered into a river in his mind.

"There's no other way, Little Goldie, I will help you!"

After a long period of ideological struggle, the Eight-Tails finally made up his mind. He raised his large bull head and shouted to Gold Horn outside.

"Huh? Old Eight, what are you doing?"

Gold Horn was confused by the Eight-Tails' words, but the next moment, he saw the Tailed Beast card at his waist flash with dazzling golden light. When the light dissipated, a brand-new Tailed Beast card appeared in the card slot.

This card depicted an Eight-Tails with bared fangs and brandished claws, and its appearance was exactly the same as the Eight-Tails card used for transformation, but it had an extra gorgeous border.

"An Ultimate Tailed Beast card, huh..."

Uchiha Gin raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that even Jiao Du, the perfect knight, hadn't come up with this, but Gold Horn had actually gotten his hands on it first.

Turning his gaze to the kind-looking Danzo, he shook his head in disappointment; it seemed he hadn't pushed him hard enough.

"A card I've never seen before. Old Eight, what is this?"

Gold Horn drew the Ultimate Tailed Beast card, used the rising smoke and dust as cover, hid behind a protruding rock wall, and asked in confusion.

"This is my final power. Take it and try to defeat that guy!"

In the sea of consciousness, Gyuki straightened his back, looking at the huge Susanoo showing off its power outside with eyes like torches. His bond with Gold Horn finally overcame his instinctive fear.

The Eight-Tails decided to give it his all, pouring out everything he had and handing his power over to Gold Horn for him to control everything.

Gold Horn felt the determination from Gyuki and was deeply moved. With tears in his tiger eyes, he stood up, raised the Ultimate Tailed Beast card in his hand, and slammed it into the driver at his waist, his expression extremely firm.

"I will not let you down, Old Eight!"

"Eight-Tails, loading."

The sound of the Supreme Tailed Beast card loading rang out, and the lengthy loading BGM continued, while behind Jin Jiao, a raging Tailed Beast chakra suddenly rose, its density so high it became visible to the naked eye; the crowd craned their necks, wanting to catch a glimpse of what was happening.

". Gyuki, Beast Fist Combination!"

Feeling a sense of inspiration, Jin Jiao first threw away the serrated greatsword in his hand, then struck a chuunibyou pose, raising his fist high as the Tailed Beast chakra behind him left his body and flew toward the high sky.

The crowd's puzzled gazes followed the chakra upward, only to see that mass of chakra actually transform in mid-air into a giant beast that looked just like the Eight-Tails.

"Is that the Eight-Tails?!"

"No, that is not the Eight-Tails."

Facing the exclamations of the crowd, Uchiha Gin leaned back with great interest, pillowing his head with his hands, watching the "Gyuki" running in the sky, his voice filled with a certain mischievous delight.

"The good show of radishes versus Gundams has finally begun, hasn't it?" (End of chapter)
