I founded the "Bragging Cult" in Naruto.

Chapter 782: Taking first and asking later is essentially a form of robbery.

Cement, water, and fire were poured onto the Ten-Tails' body, which had collapsed into the ground. The Ten-Tails kept thrashing its tail, trying to shake off the mud, but its movements became increasingly sluggish.

It wasn't just the weight that was hindering its movement; the cement, after being mixed with water, became incredibly viscous, and the constant baking by fire dried it out, turning it into an incredibly solid block of stone.

This is not as simple as a cement product. With the enhancement of chakra and chakra nature transformation, the cement's strength even far exceeds that of some defensive earth-style ninjutsu.

Because of the long journey, his chakra was nearly depleted, and he had only managed to contribute a small amount to Hiruzen Sarutobi. His eyes were now slightly moist, and he murmured:

"I knew it. My research direction was correct. The combined ninjutsu is no less powerful than bloodline limits."

As someone who possesses all five chakra natures and is proficient in all five ninjutsu, Hiruzen Sarutobi began researching composite ninjutsu that combines techniques of various natures outside the body very early on.

They also achieved some good results and proved themselves on the battlefield, but...

Unlike bloodline limits, composite ninjutsu has not gained widespread recognition and popularity.

But now, Hiruzen Sarutobi felt he had achieved perfection, and the technique before him was the best proof of that: a composite ninjutsu with great potential!

Furthermore, even if not everyone is proficient in multiple ninjutsu, they can still combine their skills with their companions to unleash complex ninjutsu together.

Imagine how wonderful it would be if such a small team could be implemented throughout the entire village.

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed, thinking that after the war, he must write a proposal and submit it to Tsunade. Even if it is only a small-scale trial, he must persevere and one day he will gain everyone's approval!

"A great opportunity!"

Naruto's Rasengan swiftly materialized in his hand, and he took a step towards the deep pit. At that moment, a hand was placed on Naruto's back. Naruto turned his head and immediately smiled.

"Naruto, let's defeat the enemy together!"

Minato smiled and said to Naruto, who nodded vigorously. Minato looked at the deep pit and then transformed into a golden flash.

"Young man, let me borrow your knife."

Mifune suddenly felt a lightness at his waist, and belatedly realized that his most beloved katana had somehow ended up in Tobirama Senju's hands. Tobirama Senju held the katana in one hand and formed a hand seal with the other.

With a slight frown, narrowed eyes, and pursed lips, as if sensing something, he also transformed into a streak of blue light and disappeared in the instant the golden light flashed.

Mifune patted the empty space at his waist, speechless. Taking it first and asking later, she had never intended to ask his opinion, had she?

Tatsuma also activated the Flying Thunder God Technique without hesitation. Although the chakra output just now had left the three of them somewhat exhausted, with Minato unable to unleash powerful ninjutsu and Tobirama even choosing to use a sword, it would be a pity not to seize this opportunity.

A silvery light flashed up, and when it reappeared, it was already in front of Obito along with Minato and his son, Tobirama, and others.

"Spiral Shuriken!"

Naruto waved his hand, pressing down on Obito with the Rasengan in his hand. Tobirama swung his katana, aiming straight for Obito's neck and the vines connecting his head to the Ten-Tails.

"Flying Thunder God Slash!"

Tatsuma then flicked his hands, and two Yin-Yang Release black rods appeared in his hands. He smashed one rod towards Obito's forehead and chopped down with the other to meet Madara Uchiha.

"Kamui!"

Obito's Mangekyou Sharingan spun rapidly, and a line of bloody tears flowed from his eyes. The space in front of him was twisted, encompassing Minato, Naruto, and Tobirama.

"Thump~"

Just then, Tatsuma, attacking from the side, landed his Yin-Yang Release black rod on Obito's head.

The force was just right, leaving me bewildered and mentally exhausted.

Obito, feeling dizzy and in pain, suddenly closed his eyes. The spatial distortion stopped, and Tobirama's sword looked like it was about to decapitate him, having already cut through the outermost layer of Obito's skin.

Naruto's Rasengan also cut through Obito's clothes, leaving small cuts on his skin.

At this moment, Madara Uchiha's outstretched hand was also broken by Tatsuma's other hand with a black rod. However, Madara Uchiha reacted extremely quickly, and his already mottled Rinnegan was further damaged and peeled off. But the severed hand began to move.

"Snap!"

A slap landed on Obito's face, who was already dizzy. Obito was forced to turn his head, and Tobirama's blade slid across his neck, severing the vines connecting Obito to the Ten-Tails. Tobirama then grabbed Madara's hand, which was still moving even after being separated from his body.

Upon closer inspection, Tobirama realized that the hand bones had transformed into black chakra rods, and that Madara had merely been controlling his hand like a puppet.

"boom!"

At that moment, the spiral shuriken exploded, and the resulting shockwave sent everyone flying backward.

"Click click click~"

"Phew~"

At this moment, one of the Ten-Tails' tails seemed to break free of its restraints and lashed out at Tatsuma and the others. Without hesitation, the group used Flying Thunder God Technique again and returned to the surface of the deep pit.

Looking down, Obito was lying on the Ten-Tails' body, with a huge hole in his abdomen and blood gushing from his body, but he couldn't even move.

"Did it work?"

Behind them, where the Allied Shinobi Forces were located, someone couldn't wait to ask a question, but Tatsuma and the others didn't reply. Looking at the cement with more and more cracks appearing, and the Ten-Tails whose form seemed to be changing, their faces didn't show much optimism.

The good news is that Obito seems to have lost his ability to move, and Madara Uchiha, whose arm was broken by Tatsuma, has not recovered his Edo Tensei body, clearly having reached his true limit.

"Bang bang bang~"

"roar!!!"

With a roar, the ten tails broke free from the cement's control and lunged at Tatsuma and the others, forcing them to retreat once more.

A moment later, everyone saw a monster with ten tails, but as thin as a rake, crawl out of the deep pit, seemingly completely different from before.

Moreover, unlike when it was first controlled by Obito, the Ten-Tails is now even more uncontrollable, with its ten tails and various sizes of Tailed Beast Balls attacking haphazardly in the air.

With only one arm left, Madara Uchiha carried Obito on his back, instantly leaving the swaying Ten-Tails and landing on the ground some distance away.

At that moment, a White Zetsu emerged from the ground. Without saying a word, Madara Uchiha used his hand as a knife to cut off the White Zetsu's torso and replaced it with Obito's.

However, the white Zetsu, which was originally a pale expanse of flesh and blood, was now mixed with black, but Obito, whose eyes were already unfocused, obviously did not see it.

The Allied Shinobi Forces, busy fighting the Ten-Tails, also failed to notice this.

The Ten-Tails' chakra output was becoming increasingly powerful, and the Tailed Beast Ball it spewed was about to reach an even higher level of intensity. Tatsuma looked at the cone-shaped Tailed Beast Ball and felt a little uncomfortable.

Some memories gradually surfaced, but this time, he was there.

Although Shikaku seems to be incompatible with me no matter which ninja world I'm in, I have to admit he's a good colleague and friend.

"Minato! I need to recover some chakra."

After Tatsuma finished speaking, Minato, who had never actually fought alongside Tatsuma, seemed like another Minato from the ninja world, and tacitly stood in front of Tatsuma to deal with the thorny killing technique that was like a rain of arrows.

Chenma half-squatted on the ground, one hand forming the opposing hand seal, refining the energy in his cells into chakra, while the other hand tapped the ground, his senses extending towards the command center.

"Oh no! Command post!"

At this moment, the Ten-Tails unleashed another Tailed Beast Ball, and Shikamaru, Ino, and the others were all stunned by its trajectory.

Back at the command post, upon hearing the news, Shikaku pursed his lips, then relaxed them and calmly said, "Just do what you're supposed to do. Even if you're going to die, you should use all your remaining time to think of ways to break the deadlock for the Allied Forces."

As he spoke, he sat down cross-legged on the spot, closed his eyes, and calmly pondered how to deal with the Ten-Tails, whose strength far exceeded that of the entire Allied Shinobi Forces.

On the battlefield, Minato was equally anxious, but in such a short time, and with the little chakra he had left, it was not enough for him to sense the Flying Thunder God Technique of the command center and deal with this Tailed Beast Ball.

He turned to look at Tatsuma, who had just been saying he needed to recover his chakra. Tatsuma opened his eyes at that moment and said, "Those who didn't go to the battlefield shouldn't take up a spot on the list of casualties."

The moment the words left their mouths, the Allied Shinobi Forces, who were maintaining the same communication frequency, realized something and all smiled. Even Shikaku in the command center slightly raised the corners of his lips, thinking to himself:

"I've also found a solution for the Ten-Tails. Listen to me."

"boom!!!"
