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

Chapter 247 The eight tails go berserk!

Minato Namikaze raised his hands to shield his face, blocking the raging wind and flying rocks that were hurtling towards him.

Through the gap between his arms, Minato Namikaze stared intently at Killer Bee, who was not far away.

An Eight-Tails Jinchuriki in a berserk state is not an easy enemy to deal with!

Not to mention that in the battle just now, Minato Namikaze's chakra was greatly depleted, and he simply could not sustain a continued battle against the rampaging Eight-Tails Jinchuriki.

"This power is not much different from Kushina's..."

Minato Namikaze gripped the Flying Thunder God kunai tightly, standing resolutely in place, his stability like that of a stubborn reef.

"No matter what, we absolutely cannot allow the rampaging Eight-Tails Jinchuriki to spread to other areas of the battlefield."

"I must keep them here indefinitely!"

Minato Namikaze's mind raced as he considered how to deal with the rampaging Eight-Tails Jinchuriki.

At this point, Killer Bee finally began to act.

This is different from the "half-tailed beast state" under the control of a Jinchūriki.

Due to Killer Bee's excessive rage, the Eight-Tails' chakra within him leaked out continuously through the gaps in the [Iron Armor Seal], wrapping around his body. (Killer Bee was using the Iron Armor Seal.)

Four or five dark red chakra strands vaguely formed the shape of octopus tentacles, condensing behind Killer Bee and launching an attack towards the location of Minato Namikaze, following his furious and violent will.

woo-

The thick octopus tentacles roared and tore through the air, lashing fiercely at the spot where Minato Namikaze was standing, and in the blink of an eye, they rushed in front of the latter.

Faced with such an attack, Minato Namikaze did not directly use the Flying Thunder God Technique to dodge, but only relied on his own extraordinary nerve reaction speed to perform an ultra-fast movement at the level of the Body Flicker Technique.

In terms of chakra consumption, the Body Flicker Technique is far less efficient than the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Minato Namikaze leaped backward, easily dodging Killer Bee's octopus tentacles.

boom!

Killer Bee's octopus tentacles lashed out at the spot where Minato Namikaze had been standing, carving a deep trench into the earth, followed by a burst of dust and smoke.

But Kirabi's operation did not end there.

The octopus's tentacles firmly adhered to the ground, and pulled by the tentacles, Killer Bee shot towards Minato Namikaze's location like a cannonball.

With a grim expression, Minato Namikaze dodged to the side again, attempting to avoid Killer Bee's straight charge.

boom!

Kira crashed into the earth like a meteorite, instantly creating a crater several meters in diameter. Numerous cracks covered the ground, and dust and debris shot into the sky.

Through the dust, Minato Namikaze could vaguely see a bull-headed octopus coiled on the ground.

Killer Bee, completely enveloped in a dark red chakra cloak, glared at Minato Namikaze with eyes full of hatred as he dodged, and resolutely gathered chakra.

Streams of chakra were released from Killer Bee's body, accumulating into a sphere in front of his strange bull head. A Tailed Beast Ball of moderate size rapidly formed in front of the berserk Eight-Tails Jinchuriki.

Minato Namikaze's pupils contracted slightly.

He can use the [Body Flicker Technique] to dodge Killer Bee's octopus tentacles.

However, explosive attacks with a huge range like the Tailed Beast Ball cannot be avoided by the Body Flicker Technique alone!

A thought flashed through Minato Namikaze's mind.

In his berserk state, Killer Bee aimed directly at his location and unleashed the Tailed Beast Ball.

The jet-black Tailed Beast Ball shot towards Minato Namikaze like a shooting star streaking across the night sky.

Master Men was highly skilled and daring.

He waited until the Tailed Beast Ball was about to hit the ground he was standing on before decisively activating the Flying Thunder God Technique mark, instantly disappearing from his original spot through spatial movement.

Rumbling--

Killer Bee's Tailed Beast Ball descended directly upon the land of the Land of Hot Springs.

An intense burst of light erupted instantly, followed by a deafening roar. The entire earth trembled and shook from the explosive power of the Tailed Beast Ball.

Another enormous mushroom cloud rose over the Land of Hot Water.

……

On the Fog Concealed Battlefield, where inventory and organization work is underway.

Nara Rinkazu originally intended to discuss with the Five-Tailed King Kokuo how to deal with the Three-Tailed King Isobu.

Although Nara Rinkei wasn't really interested in that big gray turtle.

However, both the Three-Tails Isobu and the Five-Tails Kokuo are "Tailed Beasts".

Even considering the feelings of the Five-Tailed King.

Nara Rinkazu could not simply deal with Mitsuo Isobu.

However, before he could even speak...

The terrifying chakra released by Killer Bee in his berserk state was like a giant red warning light, instantly "lighting up" within Nara Ranke's perception range.

The explosion of the Tailed Beast Ball that followed was so powerful that it could be seen and heard from a great distance.

Nara Rinka's expression changed slightly. He looked in the direction of the Tailed Beast Ball explosion and made a judgment after a moment of observation.

"It's the Eight-Tails!"

Previously, Nara Rinkazu and Minato Namikaze faced off against the Third Raikage and the AB duo from Kumogakure.

Nara Rinka and his clone cleanly and efficiently ended the battle, also taking down Hozuki Zangetsu, Ishikawa, and other ninjas who had joined in.

Meanwhile, Nara Rinkei didn't pay much attention to Minato Namikaze's side.

In his view, the duel between Master Men and the AB team had been held many times before, and neither side had gained the upper hand.

Recently, with the help of Nara Rinkazu, Minato Namikaze mastered the Rasengan ahead of schedule.

For Minato Namikaze, the Rasengan directly raised the upper limit of his attack power.

The enemy hasn't improved, but our teammates have become stronger.

Nara Rinka deduced that Master Men should be able to handle the battle against the AB combination.

No matter what.

Master Men, who possesses the Flying Thunder God Technique, wanted to escape, and neither "A" nor "B" could stop him.

But now it seems...

It seems something went wrong with Master Men!

"It is indeed the chakra of the Ushioni."

The Five-Tailed King nodded slightly.

"Lan Gui, would you like me to go over there with you?"

"No, this time I'll act alone."

Nara Rangsuke quickly made arrangements.

"If things don't go well, I will use [Summoning Technique] to summon you."

The Five-Tailed King nodded seriously.

Nara Rinka's figure vanished from the spot in an instant.

Flying Thunder God Technique!

Using the pre-placed Flying Thunder God mark, Nara Rinkachi arrived directly from the Hidden Mist battlefield to the vicinity of the area where Minato Namikaze and the AB duo were fighting.

With just one glance, Nara Rinka saw Killer Bee seemingly in a half-tailed beast form.

From a distance, a dark red chakra cloak covered Killer Bee's body, and the octopus tentacles behind him pierced the earth, shattering the ground and creating two deep craters.

"This is……"

Nara Rinka frowned deeply and did not take immediate action.

Dark red octopus tentacles darted rapidly through the earth, attempting to use the ground as cover to strike the enemy.

But how sharp is Minato Namikaze's perception?

Sensing the flow of chakra from the earth below, Minato Namikaze quickly moved his body and ran away from his original position.

Boom!

With a deafening roar, two octopus tentacles rose from the earth, shooting straight into the sky like giant trees.

"What kind of strange move is that...? Has it gone berserk?"

Nara Rinkasa strode forward, intending to support Namikaze Minato.

"And where's A? I can't sense any chakra... How come Killer Bee is the only one here?"

"Lan Gui! Watch out!"

Minato Namikaze also sensed the arrival of Nara Rinkazu. Seeing the other party step forward, he hurriedly reminded him.

"I've taken care of A! The Eight-Tails Jinchuriki has gone berserk!"

It's solved...

The future Fourth Raikage?

Mr. Doorman, is your lawn mowing speed really that fast?!

How long has it been since they developed the Rasengan? And they've already taken down A?

Nara Rinka paused slightly in his advance, but continued forward, getting closer to Killer Bee's location.

Killer Bee, in its berserk state, also sensed the approach of the stranger.

Almost instinctively, he activated his chakra, and countless octopus tentacles lashed out at the approaching Nara Ranka.

Despite the imposing octopus tentacles, Nara Rinka's expression remained unchanged.

[Yin Seal Released!]

Under Nara Rinka's will, the [Yin Seal] hidden in the shadows was instantly broken.

A massive amount of Yin Release chakra surged from the Yin Seal, forming an incredibly sturdy Shadow Mask that blocked Nara Rinka's head.

[Shadow Transformation Technique: Rashomon]!

boom! boom! boom!

In its berserk state, Killer Bee's octopus tentacles lashed out like a storm at the shadowy face formed by [Rashomon].

However, it is a Yin Release technique that incorporates the [Ranking Technique].

[Rashomon] is a kind of "absolute defense" against attacks from tailed beasts!

The seemingly powerful octopus tentacles struck the Rashomon, but failed to cause it the slightest damage.

On the contrary, we should take advantage of this opportunity.

Nara Rinkachi has once again transformed the form of the Rashomon, turning the solid Shadow Demon Mask into a resilient Shadow Cable.

【Shadow Slap Technique】!

The jet-black shadow cables, connected by octopus tentacles, rapidly spread to Killer Bee's location, attempting to control the rampaging Eight-Tails Jinchuriki.

Feeling the restraints on its body, Killer Bee, already in a state of rage, began to struggle frantically.

However, Nara Rinkei never intended to be able to control his opponent directly with just the Shadow Slap Technique.

The Shadow Slap Technique only provides a brief opportunity to restrict the opponent.

Nara Rinkachi maintained the chakra output of the [Shadow Slap Technique].

On the other side, they prepared their true killing move against the Eight-Tails—

"Come forth! [Samehada]!"

First update.

The second update will be after 3 PM.
