Chapter 660

"I don't want to lose to that guy Isobu! Pull yourself together!!!"

The loud, low voice rang in Lao Zi's ears; the owner of the voice was the Four-Tails, Son Goku, sealed within Lao Zi's body.

"I..."

Hearing this, Lao Zi gave a sudden jolt.

"I promised to defeat the enemy before me!"

Lao Zi muttered subconsciously. He turned his eyes to look at the Rock ninja behind him, who also wore expressions of despair, and for some reason, a glimmer of courage suddenly appeared in his heart.

"No, I cannot lose!!"

Lao Zi recited in his heart and hurriedly asked the Four-Tails, Son Goku.

The best way to deal with an incoming Tailed Beast Bomb was naturally to use an identical Tailed Beast Bomb to cancel it out.

But launching such a terrifying technique as a Tailed Beast Bomb was a significant drain even for a Tailed Beast, and such a drain was even more terrifying for a Jinchuriki.

Therefore, Lao Zi was currently in the "cooldown" period for his techniques and was unable to launch another Tailed Beast Bomb.

"Son, what should I do?"

Facing the Tailed Beast Bomb attack, he was completely at his wit's end and could only seek help from the Four-Tails, Son Goku.

"At this point, there is only one way left."

"It just depends on whether you are willing or not."

The voice of the Four-Tails, Son Goku, rang out again, only this time there was an inexplicable nuance to it.

"What way?"

Lao Zi asked hurriedly.

"Break the seal and let me 'come out'."

The voice of the Four-Tails, Son Goku, rang out slowly and steadily, only this time it seemed to carry a hint of demonic temptation.

Time was short; even if Lao Zi received the full support of the Four-Tails, Son Goku, right now and became a "perfect Jinchuriki" like Mizunuki Ryosuke, he could not possibly exert the full power of the Four-Tails in such a rush. He still would not be Mizunuki Ryosuke's opponent.

So, to defeat the opponent before him, perhaps he really had to do as the Four-Tails, Son Goku, said.

Break the seal and let the Tailed Beast break free.

Perhaps in a wild state, the fully recovered Four-Tails, Son Goku, could fight Mizunuki Ryosuke.

Hearing this, Lao Zi's pupils contracted slightly.

As a Jinchuriki, how could he not know what breaking the seal meant for a Jinchuriki?

Once the Tailed Beast seal, which had long since merged with the Jinchuriki, was broken and the beast emerged completely, it meant the Jinchuriki's own life had reached its end.

As a Jinchuriki, Lao Zi should have refused sternly, but because of the current situation, Lao Zi suddenly fell silent.

"Can I trust you, Son?"

After a brief moment of contemplation, Lao Zi asked the Four-Tails, Son Goku. The deep meaning behind this sentence was enough to explain many things.

"After you break the seal, I will take over your body, but I will not leave immediately."

"I promise you, as long as you let me out, I will defeat this guy."

"At the same time, I will not make things difficult for the Rock ninja, and I will help the Rock ninja escape from here."

"This is the promise of the Four-Tails, 'Great Sage Equal to Heaven, Son Goku'."

The voice of the Four-Tails, Son Goku, rang in Lao Zi's ears. This was also the first time Son had formally reported his true name to Lao Zi, which counted as a kind of promise to him.

"Good!"

Without too much hesitation, and having no time to hesitate, Lao Zi ultimately chose to agree to the request of the Four-Tails, Son Goku.

Because now, he had no other choice; he could only choose to believe in the promise of the Four-Tails, Son Goku.

At this moment, Lao Zi thought of Onoki and Huang Tu, who had sacrificed everything for Iwagakure, and the thousands of Rock ninja behind him.

In this battle, Iwagakure really could not lose.

Even if it meant paying with his life, as long as there was a glimmer of hope, Lao Zi had to strive for it.

Thinking of this, a red flame suddenly erupted from Lao Zi's body, and large pitch-black runes appeared on his skin. Under the red flame, the pitch-black runes were burned to nothing.

Subsequently, a will that seemed to come from the primeval wilderness descended upon Lao Zi.
