Naruto: Nawaki was already dead, how could you bring him back to life?

After doing all this, Chiba put the scroll into his pocket, preparing to leave this awful place first and then meet up with Nawaki and the others.

With his current strength, he could almost sweep away the old, weak, sick and disabled in the ninja world, but the jinchūriki in their prime are obviously not included, and of course, a certain old man hiding underground is not included either.

boom!

Just as Chiba left the rocky area, a blood-red figure descended from the sky and crashed heavily in front of him, kicking up countless pebbles and dirt.

Swish!

Chiba retreated rapidly, instantly creating distance between himself and the figure, staring at his opponent with suspicion and uncertainty.

"Who gave you permission...who gave you permission to kill my teammate?!"

Within a crimson chakra, the shadow of a dark-skinned youth could be vaguely seen. He clutched his head in pain, letting out a beast-like roar at Chiba, while four blood-red tails lashed wildly behind him.

"Hmm? Just seeing the corpses of his teammates made him so angry that he went into half-tailed beast form?"

Seeing this, Chiba stopped rushing to escape, a strange glint in his eyes: "This Jinchūriki's condition... seems rather unstable?"

Indeed, the young man before them was none other than Brubi, the current Eight-Tails Jinchuriki of Kumogakure.

Brubi possessed exceptional abilities, enough to control the Eight-Tails, but after becoming a Jinchuriki, he discovered that everyone around him had changed their attitude towards him.

He went from being a beloved genius of the Hidden Clouds to a monster that everyone feared and avoided.

This huge gap took a toll on Brubi's mind and body. He tried to vent his negative emotions through intense fighting, but it was ineffective.

In the original storyline, Burubi was never able to fill the void in her heart, and ultimately died from the Eight-Tails' rampage due to Orochimaru's machinations.

"This guy's not in good shape. Forget about perfectly unleashing the Eight-Tails' power, he probably can't even use half of it!"

After quickly making a judgment, Chiba's eyes lit up, and he gave up the idea of ​​running away. Other thoughts began to emerge in his mind.

He didn't get any rewards on this trip!

Before leaving, could you try to cut a piece of flesh from this Jinchuriki who is in poor condition?

Even if we can't defeat the opponent, we can just run away later. After all, the Eight-Tails can't fly like the Seven-Tails...

Swish!

Just as Chiba was pondering, the figure of Burubi opposite him vanished instantly and reappeared beside him the next moment, her hands like claws, fiercely grabbing at his cheeks.

"What a fast speed!"

Chiba's pupils dilated. The violent tailed beast chakra was as hot as flames. He dared not take it head-on. With the help of the paper wings behind him, he shifted his body to the side and dodged the attack.

"The shikigami probably can't withstand the burning of the tailed beast's chakra. I can't let this guy's attack land on me."

Chiba's expression was solemn. Even though the opponent was a "defective" Jinchūriki, his strength was not to be underestimated, and he had to deal with him carefully!

"Fire Release·Fire Bullet!"

As he staggered backward, Chiba refined chakra into oil in his mouth and spat a fireball at the relentlessly pursuing Brubi, aiming for a surprise attack.

Swish!

Just as she was about to be hit by the fireball, Burubi dodged it with an unreasonable change of direction. Instead of slowing down, she rushed towards Chiba at an even faster speed.

Bang!

There was no time to use ninjutsu anymore. Chiba raised his hand and crushed a poison sac. Under the cover of the poisonous mist, he dodged backward and once again distanced himself from Burubi.

zizizi~~

The poison gas was completely vaporized by the tailed beast cloak covering Brubi's body the moment it approached him, and had no effect on him whatsoever.

"Thunder Plow Hot Knife!"

With a roar, Brubi charged toward Chiba, his Lightning Release chakra rapidly condensing within him, making him even faster than before.

"The Dance of Shikigami - Paper Rain!"

Chiba felt a chill run down her spine and quickly took off. Her paper wings unfurled, releasing a dense barrage of sharp paper fragments that rained down on Furuhi on the ground.

Swish!

Brubi landed on all fours, drawing a red lightning bolt across the ground, and easily escaped the coverage of the paper rain.

"You clearly have the ability to fly, so why don't you leave?!"

Instead of attacking again, Brubi stood up and growled at Chiba, who had landed again.

"Well……"

Chiba pondered for a moment and decided that he should first provoke Brubi, ideally to the point of completely transforming into a tailed beast. Only then, once the Eight-Tails' chakra was fully manifested, would he be able to seize the power of the Eight-Tails.

Then, under Burubi's puzzled gaze, Chiba slowly raised one hand and showed his middle finger.

"You're nothing but a piece of trash who can't even protect his own comrades, why should I run?"

After mocking Brubi, Chiba didn't even spare the Eight-Tails, continuing, "Everyone says the Eight-Tails is trash, and seeing it today, I can confirm it. With such little strength, it's not even worthy of carrying the One-Tails' shoes, let alone being far inferior to the Nine-Tails!"

boom!

Chiba's sarcastic remarks were very effective.

Brubi trembled all over, and the tailed beast chakra in his body overflowed wildly like a flood. The tails on his back changed from four to eight, and tailed beast bones appeared on his head and arms.

"This guy dares to call me trash, Brubi, let me handle this, I'm going to tear him apart!"

"Get out of my way! This is my body, and it's none of your business to interfere!"

Brubi's expression grew increasingly frenzied as she loudly argued with the Eight-Tails within her. Her consciousness began to be influenced by the Eight-Tails, and she was on the verge of losing control.

"This guy still has some control, at least better than Kushina right now. He hasn't completely gone berserk yet?"

"Eight Gates Formation - Third Gate of Rest, Open!"

When enraged, Burubi will be even more terrifying. While Burubi and the Eight-Tails were fighting for control of the body, Chiba opened the third gate in one go, and his whole body began to emit green energy.

"Phew, my body has fully adapted to the intensity of the three gates. Dancing for half an hour should not be a problem."

歘!歘!歘!

Just as Chiba was observing Brubi, Brubi's eight tails suddenly swelled up in the wind, transforming into eight rope darts under the influence of chakra. They crisscrossed and stabbed at Chiba, like a large red net descending from the sky.

"Are they trying to trap me on the ground?"

Chiba snorted coldly and instead of retreating, he charged directly at Brubi with his eight tails. Simply dodging wouldn't force Brubi into full tailed beast form!

"Spiral pills!"

Chiba transformed into a streak of green light, weaving through eight red rays that swirled up and down, narrowly making his way to Brupi's side. He conjured an enormous Rasengan with his right hand and slammed it down on Brupi's head.

Brubi neither dodged nor evaded, letting the Rasengan smash towards the skeletonized head, while instantly raising his right hand to stab at Chiba's chest.

"Want to trade injuries for injuries? That suits me perfectly!"

Chiba's mind raced, but he didn't back down at all. He even offered his chest to her, as he was still wearing the necklace left behind by the First Hokage around his neck!

The next instant, their attacks struck each other simultaneously.

The difference is that Burubi's hand pierced through Chiba's chest without any sense of impact, while Chiba's Rasengan landed squarely on Burubi's head.

boom!

The terrifying spinning force instantly pierced through the white bones on Brupi's head, penetrated the tailed beast's cloak, and poured onto Brupi's head, sending him flying backward.

"Uhhhhhh!"

At the same time, Chiba also let out a cry of pain uncontrollably.

As expected, Shiki couldn't withstand the onslaught of the Tailed Beast's chakra. If he hadn't been used to this level of pain through the Blood Refinement of Living Puppets, he probably would have lost consciousness by now.

"Give it to me!"

Just now, Brubi's body briefly brushed against the necklace, and Chiba sensed that the residual energy in the necklace was reacting to Brubi's tailed beast chakra, not just to the Nine-Tails.

So, the instant Brubi was sent flying backward, Chiba endured the pain and caught up with Brubi, pulled off the necklace, and used chakra to protect it, slapping it onto Brubi's body.

"Finally, it's my turn! Let me try... What is this thing?!"

Just as the Eight-Tails took over Brubi's body, its feet plowed the ground, barely stopping its movement, Chiba slapped the crystal necklace onto its body.

Swish!Swish!Swish!

Beams of cyan-green light shot out from the necklace, binding the Eight-Tails layer by layer, and seemingly using its chakra as nourishment to continuously strengthen itself, tightening its grip more and more!

"Don't even think about stopping me, you damned brat! Now I'll show you my true power!"

With a roar, the Eight-Tails' eight transparent chakra tails instantly materialized, transforming from blood-red phantoms into pinkish-brown octopus tentacles, which rapidly expanded, lifting the Eight-Tails' body.

boom!

The next instant, amidst the roar of the eight-tailed beast, the cyan-green beam of light on its body suddenly exploded, turning into specks of starlight and disappearing.

Meanwhile, the Eight-Tails' body continued to expand until a giant monster with a bull's head appeared in front of Chiba.

"Kid, are you ready to die?"

At this moment, the Eight-Tailed Gyūki was sixty or seventy meters tall, and Chiba was not even as big as one of its tentacle suction cups. Its muffled voice was like thunder, and its pair of round eyes coldly stared at Chiba, who was like an ant.

However, the panicked look that Gyuki had anticipated did not appear.

Instead of being surprised, the boy showed a delighted expression and shouted excitedly at it.

"I'm ready! I've been preparing for this moment for a long time!"

Ox-Demon: "???"

"Sealing Technique: Vajra Lockdown!"

Chapter 78 The Pseudo-Jinchūriki, Chiba's Dream

Looking at the fully transformed Gyuki, Chiba felt his DNA stirring. This was perfect for his job!

歘!歘!歘!

Chiba clapped his hands together, and chains of chakra shot out from his body, instantly growing to the thickness of an arm. To the Eight-Tails' bewildered gaze, they crisscrossed into a net that tightly bound itself to the Eight-Tails.

"This is……?!"

Looking at the chains binding him, the Eight-Tails showed a look of surprise and uncertainty.

"Uh ah ah ah ah!"
