Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha is not motivated.

The battle suits worn by Minato and the others maximized their individual characteristics within the limits of their physical capabilities.

For example, Kushina,
With the enhancement of the Nine-Tails' chakra, her superhuman strength was amplified exponentially, ultimately reaching the point where she could send the Four-Tails flying with a single punch.

Of course, this is also closely related to the fact that the Four-Tails underestimated its opponent.

As for Minato, his suit enhanced his speed, which he was so proud of. Even though he hadn't yet learned his future signature technique, the Flying Thunder God, his current speed was not to be underestimated.

Hyuga Kagami's will is solely for protection, and his battle suit naturally activates extremely strong defensive attributes, enabling him to provide shields for himself and his teammates.

As for Kizaru Shimura
"You've all finished showing off, isn't it my turn now?"

Kizaru, whose entire body was as black as a pot, stepped forward. He was the only one left in the four-person team who hadn't yet shown his skills. If his uncle thought he was just slacking off, he would definitely get a lecture when they got back.

"Kizaru-kun, your abilities aren't really suited to dealing with an enemy like this, are they?"

Minato looked troubled upon hearing this. It wasn't that he looked down on Kizaru, but rather that Kizaru's fighting style was simply not suitable for dealing with an enemy of such a large size.

"Hey! How will you know it won't suit you if you don't try?"

Kizaru waved his hand, clapped his hands together forcefully, and instantly transformed into a cloud of black mist, disappearing into the pitch-black environment.

"To be beaten like this by a human little girl, it seems that Shukaku's title of the shame of the tailed beasts has finally been passed on."

On the other side, King Mu looked at the crooked-mouthed and squinting Sun Wukong and couldn't help but sneer.

"Hmph! If it were you, you wouldn't be much better off than me."

Sun Wukong glanced at the heavily worn staff in his hand and couldn't help but let out a cold snort.
It was one of the two tailed beasts, along with Shukaku. With such a large weight, it was sent flying by Kushina's punch. If it were the skinny Five-Tails, it would have been reunited with the old man on the spot.

"Hehe, I'm not as... uh?"

Just as Wuwei shook its head disdainfully, a strange itch suddenly came from its rear, making it frown involuntarily.

Are the mosquitoes in the Land of Rain really that big?

"Lao Mu, look behind you!"

Behind me?
Looking at the startled Sun Wukong with a puzzled expression, King Mu turned around and discovered a black figure had appeared behind him without his noticing. He trembled with fear.

"Damn human, what are you doing to my butt?!"

Caught red-handed by the Five-Tails, it was none other than Kizaru, who had just merged into the darkness. At that moment, he was sneakily lurking behind Kokuo, seemingly up to no good.

"Uh, I can't believe you found out."

Kizaru scratched his head helplessly. It seemed his stealth skills were still lacking, but fortunately, the necessary arrangements had been made.

He glanced at the densely packed things on King Mu's horse's rump, and a knowing smile crept onto his lips.
"Farewell!"

"Wait, what did you put on my butt?"

Feeling something strange on his buttocks, King Mu questioned him sharply, while Kizaru had already run eight hundred meters away, the lewd voice echoing in his ears.

"Shh~ Don't ask, just feel it with your ass."

"what?"

The next second, to King Mu's bewildered gaze, a dense burst of flames erupted behind it.
"Boom!"

"what!!!"

A deafening explosion was mixed with a shrill scream, and the dazzling flames were particularly eye-catching. Seeing the Five-Tails' rear end explode, everyone present subconsciously clenched their buttocks.

"Hahaha! Blast this idiot to me, and make sure to blow this stupid donkey's whip off too!"

Witnessing this horrific scene, Nine-Tailed Fox, one of the planners of the attack, couldn't help but laugh out loud at the thought of soon gaining a eunuch colleague.

"Hiss, Kizaru, you're too ruthless!"

Minato looked at Kizaru who had landed beside him and instinctively distanced himself from this cunning stalker who liked to sneak up on people's backs. Hyuga Kagami leaned against a tree, guarding him like a thief.

"You should be glad we're teammates."

Kizaru clapped his hands, as if he had just finished a trivial task.

His specialty is stealth combat; with the aid of his suit, he can silently approach enemies many times stronger than himself from behind without being detected.

With this skill, he quickly became a master of butt-picking, feared by both enemies and teammates, and his future achievements were destined to be remarkable.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Seeing the Five-Tails howling in agony amidst the explosion, a radiant Danzo suddenly stood up and uttered three "good"s in succession.
"clap clap"

Seeing this, the subordinates nearby immediately clapped and applauded, their every word and action revealing the various aspects of the workplace.
"Young Master Kizaru's achievements are certainly inseparable from Lord Danzo's careful guidance."

"This is talent, but more importantly, it is the excellent tradition upheld by three generations of Konoha people. I am not surprised."

Seeing their colleague manage to make Danzo beam with joy with just a few words, the other Root members all looked ashamed of their own inadequacy.
We're both dogs, so why are you so good at licking?
"Ahhh!"

Before King Koku's screams could subside, the grenades Kizaru had placed on the Five-Tails' rear end were no ordinary explosives; they were small Tailed Beast Ball bombs formed from the Nine-Tails' chakra, each possessing the power of dozens of explosive tags bundled together.
Even if it's a tailed beast, its rear end can't withstand such a fierce bombardment.

"Old Sun, please help me!"

"Hold on tight!"

Sun Wukong, of course, wouldn't stand idly by and watch his golden pet suffer, so he swung his giant cudgel and smashed it towards the spot where King Mu had exploded.
"No, you... Ah!!!"

By the time King Mu realized what was happening, it was too late. Sun Wukong's enormous staff lashed down on its bloodied and mangled rear, slamming its five tails until they were taut.
"Aha!"

Even as the Five-Tails' cries grew increasingly desperate, they couldn't deter Sun Wukong's determination to help his brothers; he swung his staff so fast it almost left afterimages.

"Phew, it's finally out."

A few minutes later, Sun Wukong wiped the fine sweat from his forehead and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Old Sun, you..."

King Mu, lying on the ground barely alive, shakily raised his head, his eyes filled with piercing hatred.

"You're welcome, it's what I should do."

Upon hearing this, the Five-Tails' composure instantly crumbled.
"Waaaaah, my butt!"

This is the greatest injury it has suffered since birth.
The last time it suffered such a terrible fate was when it encountered the reincarnation of Asura on the road and was knocked down by the other party in a wooden Gundam.

"It's all burnt, should we cut it up?"

Seeing the Five-Tails suddenly start sobbing, Sun Wukong, with a look of pity on his face, sniffed the aroma of roasted meat in the air and offered a suggestion.

"I'm going to tear that little black brat to pieces!"

The vitality of the tailed beasts is truly remarkable. Even though his rear end had been blown up like it was imported from the Land of Lightning, King Koku still managed to straighten up, staring intently at the four people in the distance with murderous intent in his eyes.

Five-Tailed Fox had previously scoffed at Xiao Zi and Han's revenge, but now it felt that the two of them were still too slow to act, taking so long to settle their scores.

"Lao Mu, how about we call it quits? The Rain Ninja should be arriving soon."

Han, who was inside King Mu's body, could not empathize with him. He was more concerned about the approaching enemy reinforcements, which would likely lead to another fierce battle.

"No way! Old Sun, let's go side by side and wipe that wretched stinking fox out of the ground today!"

The Nine-Tails' mocking laughter was completely undisguised, and all the tailed beasts present heard it clearly.

"it is good!"

These words were exactly what Sun Wukong wanted to do; he also wanted to get revenge on that red guy for the punch he had received.

"Roar!"

The two beasts stood in a row and roared towards the border. Many civilians who were watching the spectacle were so frightened by the killing intent they exuded that they foamed at the mouth. The ninjas were not much better off.

"Tap!" "Jiraiya! Over here~ Over here~"

The injured Jiraiya finally arrived at the border checkpoint, where Hiruko, who had been waiting for him, quickly waved and greeted him.

Where is Lord Danzo?

Seeing his Root colleagues surrounding him, Jiraiya disregarded his injuries and hurriedly asked what was wrong.

"Lord Danzo is strategizing up there. May I ask what important matter Jiraiya-senpai has to discuss?"

Nonou stood up and waved away the subordinates surrounding Jiraiya.

"Who are you? Where are Orochimaru and the others?"

Jiraiya's gaze darkened slightly as he looked at the unfamiliar mask on the newcomer.
"Jiraiya, don't talk to her so much. The situation in Root has changed."

Seeing the increasingly heavy atmosphere between the two, Hiruko quickly leaned closer and whispered something in Jiraiya's ear.
"No matter who you are, you must evacuate these civilians immediately and take them to a safe place. The battle against the Tailed Beasts is no child's play."

"Jiraiya-senpai is overthinking it. Our mission this time is not just to take in civilians."

Nonou gently shook her head and pointed upwards at the Root forces standing ready. Jiraiya stared intently, his expression instantly freezing.

"You...all of you are here?"

"That's right, it's time to let the entire ninja world know about our great Root of Konoha."

"Captain, what brilliant ideas do you have?"

Seeing the two tailed beasts looking fierce and much more serious than before, Minato turned to look at Kushina, who was doing rehabilitation exercises to the side.
"Huh? Is that even a question? Of course, we'll settle things with our fists!"

Taking advantage of the moment when Kizaru was stealing the Five-Tails' rear end, Kushina's exhausted body quickly recovered under the nourishment of the Uzumaki bloodline, and she is now back to her peak condition.

"I still have plenty of grenades."

Kizaru lifted the black trench coat he had put on at some point, revealing it covered with Tailed Beast Ball bombs.

"Your attack just now is unlikely to be effective again."

Compared to the two who were full of fighting spirit, Minato frowned slightly.

Both tailed beasts had suffered losses at the hands of these two, and they would not suffer the same loss a second time.

"The enemy is too big, should we use that?"

Hyuga Kagami calmly analyzed the battle situation and quietly offered his suggestion.
"This is the only way."

Watergate nodded in agreement.

"Huh? I haven't had enough yet!"

Kushina's face fell upon hearing this; she was already prepared to deliver another powerful blow to the Four-Tails.

"That's such a shame."

Kizaru shook his head, took off his trench coat, and then pulled out a flip phone with a nine-tailed fox pattern from his waist.

"There will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

As Minato spoke, he pulled out the same flip phone from his waist, and the others followed suit, opening their phone covers as well.

"Nine! Nine! Nine!"

As each person pressed the number nine key three times in succession, four streams of energy of different colors instantly burst forth from their bodies and shot straight into the sky.
Having done all this, the four, bathed in light, lined up in a row, striking their classic transformation poses, and shouted in unison,
"Show yourself! Bond Nine-Tails!" *4
"This is."

Upon seeing this, the four-tailed and five-tailed foxes frowned. Why is the stench of that stinky fox getting stronger and stronger?
"Roar!"

Just as everyone was wondering what the four of them were doing, from the four beams of light that shot into the sky, one after another, mechanical nine-tailed foxes made entirely of metal descended.

"Wow!"

Yahiko and Nagato, who were lying on the barbed wire fence, gaped in astonishment, not even noticing that they had drooled all over the ground.

"Slurp. So cool! Absolutely amazing!"

A few seconds later, the two of them simultaneously swallowed hard, their eyes filled with genuine envy.

"This money was well spent!"

Danzo was still winning. Looking at the four mechanical Nine-Tails that had landed, he felt it was time to take out the Will of the Root Divine Robe that he had secretly sewn many years ago.

"Hmph! I thought it was something big, but these little things, I, Old Sun, can take them all down with one stick."

After a brief moment of surprise, Sun Wukong's lips curled into a disdainful smile.

He thought the commotion he just made was the real Nine-Tailed Fox descending, but it turned out to be just four little karami that barely reached his knees.

"Lao Mu, you stay here and cover for me while I deal with them!"

Full of confidence, the Four-Tails brandished its giant club and charged towards the four mechanical Nine-Tails that had just landed.

"Prepare for battle!"

Minato shouted and jumped first into the cockpit of his personal mechanical Nine-Tails, followed closely by the others.
"Crack!"

As the hatch closed, four smaller nine-tailed foxes of different colors were instantly activated, nimbly leaping away to dodge the sweeping attack of the four-tailed foxes.

"Charge!"

The fiery-tempered Kushina, always mindful of reciprocity, dodged the Four-Tails' attack and then, controlling her mechanical Nine-Tails, lunged forward, its sharp fangs biting fiercely into Goku's back.
"Crench!"

"Damn little thing!"

Scorching crimson chakra, as hot as magma, gushed from the wound. The Four-Tails, in pain, dropped its large staff and grabbed at the small, red, mechanical Nine-Tails that was biting its back.

"Shh!"

Just then, a flash of golden light appeared, and Minato, controlling the yellow Nine-Tails, came to the rescue. He nimbly leaped onto the Four-Tails' arm and fired a series of blue light bullets at the opponent's large face.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The rising smoke obscured the Four-Tails' vision, and Minato seized the opportunity to pull Kushina down with him.
"Don't forget I'm here!"

Just as they were about to land, the Five-Tailed Beast's sinister voice suddenly rang out. It appeared not far away, its mouth wide open, its black tailed beast eyes about to lash out.

In a moment of extreme crisis, Hyuga Mirror controlled the white Nine-Tails as it descended from the sky, and a blue, egg-shaped protective shield suddenly unfolded.

"Don't even think about hurting my teammates!"

A small, jet-black nine-tailed fox emerged from behind the five-tailed fox. Upon seeing it, King Mu instinctively shuddered, and the Tailed Beast Ball he had been aiming at involuntarily rose upwards in a life-saving arc.

"boom!"

The next second, the black Tailed Beast Ball slammed into the upper half of the protective shield, producing a deafening roar.
The already devastated rainforest was instantly leveled by the aftershocks of the explosion, and the center of the impact was replaced by a large crater emitting white smoke.

"Crunch. Crunch."

As the smoke cleared, three small nine-tailed foxes of different colors stood precariously at the center of the explosion, their metallic surfaces riddled with craters.
Minato looked around at the scorched earth with lingering fear. If it weren't for Kagami and Kizaru saving the day, he and Kushina would have been a star-crossed couple in the Pure Land.

"Boom!"

In an attempt to disrupt the Five-Tails' trajectory, Kizaru, risking his life, was sent sprawling by a back kick from Kokuou. He rolled for a long time before finally reaching them, his mobile suit damaged to a degree comparable to the others.
"Your strength is nothing more than this."

The Four-Tails and Five-Tails stood in a row, looking down at the four battered, mechanical Nine-Tails, their mockery clearly visible in their eyes.

"Then let me show you the power of our four bonds!"

The four men exchanged a knowing glance, shouted a slogan, and pushed the lever in the cockpit upwards.
"Bond Fusion! Ultimate Bond Kurama Super Crimson Invincible Golden Flash Jet Black Zero White Wheel War God!" (End of Chapter)
