I, who just wanted to be lazy, was forced to become the Hokage.

Chapter 131 The Five-Tailed King Mu!

Chapter 131 Five-Tailed King Mu! (Third update, please vote!)

Faced with Han's direct and powerful attack, Orochimaru did not panic at all. Instead, he immediately lay prostrate on the ground.

If he were in someone else's shoes, he would prioritize solving his own problems rather than focusing on the unattainable Nara laurels.

"Ninja Art: Ten Thousand Snake Formation!"

Orochimaru's mouth was stretched open to an inhuman angle, and one after another, thick pythons surged out of his mouth like a tide, densely crowding every corner of the earth.

Under Orochimaru's control, the group of burly pythons converged at the forefront of Han's path, intending to use their bodies to block and intercept the violently charging Five-Tails Jinchuriki.

Han had also fought Orochimaru many times and was very familiar with the latter's ability system.

"Boiling Escape: Hot Steam!"

Faced with the dense swarm of snakes, the dark red armor covering Han's body emitted a burst of intensely hot steam, which sprayed outwards.

This high-temperature steam not only propelled Han forward but also created a scorching protective zone around his body, preventing the pythons from getting too close.

The scorching steam, mixed with Boiling Release chakra, is more powerful than ordinary high-temperature steam.

The dense swarm of snakes summoned by the "Ten Thousand Snakes Formation" involuntarily dispersed in both directions under the impact of this chakra steam, leaving a normal road wide enough for Han to pass through at high speed.

The pythons closest to "Boiling Escape: Hot Steam" were scalded and torn apart by the scalding steam, and quickly lost their vitality.

Han thought he could easily get close to Orochimaru's position.

However, the "Ten Thousand Snake Formation" did slow his progress somewhat.

Nara Rinkazu and Orochimaru's teamwork wasn't exactly seamless, but he still seized the opportunity and unleashed a new barrage of Shadow Bullets at the Five-Tails Jinchuriki below.

【Spiral Shadow Binding Bullet】!

Unlike the [Spiral Shadow Piercing Shot], which requires a direct hit to the target to be effective.

【Spiral Shadow Binding Bullet】It can exert its powerful binding force simply by touching the opponent's shadow.

Therefore, in this round of attacks, Nara Rangsuke directly expanded the attack range of the [Spiral Shadow Binding Bullet], not only focusing on attacking Han himself, but also aiming at his shadow.

Han had never fought against such an opponent.

A barrage of black bullets swept in, covering almost every direction around Han, making it impossible for him to escape.

Even though Han did everything in his power to avoid contact with those strange, black bullets, he couldn't keep track of his own shadow's movement.

The dense barrage of Spiral Shadow Binding Bullets touched Han's shadow.

The Yin Release chakra energy contained within the black bullet erupted instantly, transforming into powerful black arms that bound the Five-Tails Jinchuriki to the spot.

"I feel like I've seen this ninjutsu somewhere before!"

Feeling the tangible binding force transmitted from his body to his brain, Han was shocked.

"This seems to be... the Shadow Binding Technique, a secret technique passed down by the Nara clan of Konoha?"

"But why do I remember that ninjutsu not having this kind of attack form?"

It was noted that the Five-Tails Jinchuriki of Iwagakure was being controlled by Nara Rangsuke's tactics.

Orochimaru felt a surge of joy.

He simultaneously unleashed the Ten Thousand Serpents Formation to entangle and attack the Han.

On the other side, he quickly formed hand seals, creating a shadow clone that carried a specially made explosive tag and sped forward.

As a disciple of the Third Hokage, Orochimaru was intimately familiar with most of the ninjutsu in the Scroll of Seals.

Although we don't use them much normally.

However, this does not mean that Orochimaru does not know those ninjutsu and forbidden techniques.

For beings like Jinchūriki, who defy all reason.

Most of Orochimaru's ninjutsu will lose their effectiveness.

However, he happens to possess an A-rank forbidden technique that has extremely demanding usage conditions but astonishing power!

Orochimaru's Shadow Clone, carrying explosive tags, approached the Five-Tails Jinchuriki and threw the explosive tags at him while rapidly forming hand seals.

"Multiplicative Explosive Tags!"

boom!

A single explosive tag is continuously summoned to generate more explosive tags, resulting in a continuous series of concentrated explosions on the Five-Tails Jinchuriki who is bound in place by the [Spiral Shadow Piercing Bullet].

Boom! Boom! Boom—

The deafening roar, like firecrackers, resounded incessantly. The Five-Tails Jinchuriki was enveloped in a hail of exploding tags, and the scorching flames and powerful explosions completely engulfed him.

Nara Rinka, flying in the sky, immediately noticed Orochimaru's attack.

"Tobirama Senju's Mutually Multiplying Explosive Tags?! Orochimaru is really rich and powerful... Well, he's the highest-ranking commander on the front lines and can freely mobilize front-line supplies, so he doesn't seem as rich and powerful as I thought."

Nara Rinka's eyes were fixed on the Five-Tails Jinchuriki below.

He hoped that Orochimaru's attack would be effective.

I don't really want to think that the Five-Tails Jinchuriki really suffered some fatal injury.

Little-known facts about the ninja world.

If a Jinchuriki dies, the Tailed Beast sealed within him will also die and be reborn in some corner of the ninja world at an unknown time.

This section specifically names a turtle that died twice.

If possible, Nara Rinka hopes to avoid causing too much damage to the Five-Tails.

But what if we really send the Five-Tails away...

That's not something absolutely unacceptable.

Nara Rinkei has not yet mastered the method to remove the Tailed Beasts from the Jinchuriki's body.

Allowing a tailed beast to die and then be reborn is also a way to give the tailed beast "freedom".

At most, it will just be a little troublesome to find the Five-Tails later.

"But when that time really comes, I certainly won't be the one in a panic, will I?"

Just then, a strange noise came from below.

Amidst the seemingly endless flames of exploding tags, a striking, ominous dark red chakra suddenly appeared.

The dark red tailed beast cloak once again wrapped around Han's body, protecting him from head to toe and preventing him from being attacked by the exploding tags.

"roar--"

The Five-Tails Jinchuriki, in his half-tailed beast form, roared to the sky, letting out a high-pitched howl.

The powerful Five-Tails chakra mixed into the violent sound waves, impacting and spreading in all directions.

This surging wave of air directly blew away the numerous explosive tags that Orochimaru had summoned, and interrupted the effect of the multiplying explosive tags technique.

Even in his half-tailed beast form, Han was still able to maintain absolute clarity of mind.

Despite being shrouded in a "tailed beast cloak," he knew his condition wasn't very good.

With someone in the sky intervening to restrain him, Han had no way to continue fighting Orochimaru.

Han, whose body was wrapped in a "tailed beast cloak", opened his mouth and gathered the yin and yang chakra in his body, and combined them together to form a tailed beast ball of considerable size.

boom!

Han aimed at Orochimaru and released the Tailed Beast Ball, which had been charging up briefly.

At the same time, he raised his right hand, aimed it at the ground below, briefly gathered his strength, and then slammed it down.

"Boil Release: Unparalleled Strength!"

Boom!!

A series of earth-shattering explosions rang out from the left and right.

The former was the Tailed Beast Ball released by Han, which collided fiercely with the Triple Rashomon that Orochimaru had urgently summoned.

The latter refers to Han using his special "body-endurance technique" to directly blast a deep pit, approximately tens of meters in diameter, into the earth.

Mud and rock fragments, along with dust and ash, swirled in the air, obscuring the surrounding view.

Han was planning to use this man-made obstruction of vision to take the opportunity to withdraw from the battlefield.

But at that moment...

A thick, shadowy steel cable suddenly shot out from the chaotic environment, using the overlapping shadows to firmly control Han's movements.

【Shadow Slap Technique】!

However, the use of this A-rank secret technique was merely to cover up the effect of another S-rank technique.

Shadow Manipulation Technique!

A [Shadow Thread] was hidden in the shadow cable formed by the [Shadow Slap Technique], directly entering Han's shadow and connecting directly to his body's nerve center through the overlapping and entanglement of shadows.

Nara Rinka's spiritual consciousness was transmitted to Han's body through the [Shadow Threads], instantly sealing off the Five-Tails Jinchuriki's original consciousness.

At the same time, a completely new consciousness appeared in Han's consciousness space through the convergence of tailed beast chakra.

Nara Rinka's spiritual consciousness felt the almost tangible pressure coming from all directions, and he spoke calmly.

"Speak to me, Five-Tails!"

The voice just fell.

A slender, beautiful tailed beast emerged from the shadows.

Its body is incredibly slender, covered in smooth, pure white fur, with four imposing horns growing from the top of its head, and five long, graceful tails swaying behind it.

Five-tailed King Mu.

"An unfamiliar ninja."

The five-tailed beast, Kokuou, stared intently at Nara Rinkazuki with its azure eyes, and a deep, magnetic female voice emanated from its strangely shaped mouthparts.

"Did you seal away Han's consciousness?"

"Five-Tails...you're a woman?"

As soon as Nara Rinkachi uttered the words, he realized something was wrong and quickly tried to salvage the situation.

"Are you female?"

I must have caught the deer craze!

Nara Rinka felt like saying goodbye on the spot.

"A strange question."

The tail behind the Five-Tailed King Kokuou twitched slightly, stirring the surrounding darkness.

"I am just a tailed beast; tailed beasts have no gender."

"I'm so sorry, my question was a bit offensive. I've never seen such a big white deer in my life."

Nara Rinka bowed deeply in apology.

"Five-tailed Fox—"
