Traveling through Naruto with Heroes of Might and Magic.

An invisible, more condensed and heavy force field spread out from it, superimposed on Qingwu's magic, and acted on Lei Ying!

……

Chapter 221 Mumu VS Eight-Tails

Boom!

Raikage felt his body suddenly sink, his speed decreased sharply, as if he had sunk into a swamp, and even the flow of chakra within his body became sluggish.

"That trick again!"

He was both shocked and furious; he had been badly tricked by this strange slowing effect last time.

"Wood Release: Vajra Summoning Wood!"

Mumu raised a giant wooden hand, and a giant tree with a diameter of over two meters instantly materialized in front of his palm, shooting towards the slowed Raikage with a piercing sonic boom and terrifying natural energy!

The power of this attack far surpassed that of Qingwu himself!

"Lightning Armor!"

The Raikage dared not be negligent and immediately activated Lightning Release Chakra Mode, crossing his arms in front of him to protect himself.

boom--!!!

The giant tree slammed into Raikage's crossed arms, creating a deafening roar!

Lei Ying was knocked back dozens of meters, his feet carving two deep furrows in the ground. The lightning on his arms rippled violently, sending waves of tingling and numbness through him.

Although he managed to block it, the power of the attack startled him.

At the same time, a massive number of roots sprouted from the surrounding giant trees and lashed out at him relentlessly.

However, taking advantage of the established "home ground," Qingwu disguised dozens of withered tree guards throughout the forest.

The Deadwood Guardian, combined with its "forest" environment, has increased its attack frequency by an immeasurable amount.

"roll!"

With his Lightning Release Armor activated, the Raikage's attack power increased, and he blasted several giant trees apart with a single punch.

However, Mumu, like the "king" of all the withered tree guardians, manipulates them to fill gaps and make the forest completely leak-proof.

"Hey! Big brother!"

Killer Bee on the other side was taken aback. He knew all too well how strong his older brother's Lightning Release Armor was, yet he was knocked back so far by that giant tree.

"It's not over yet."

Qingwu's calm voice rang out, "Fire Magic: Fiery Wall!"

call--!

Two towering walls of flame, tens of meters high, appeared out of thin air, temporarily separating the Raikage and Killer Bee. The intense heat distorted the air itself.

Admittedly, fire magic can scorch giant trees, but only within the range of the fire wall.

Moreover, the withered wood guards led by Mumu will quickly fill in.

Qingwu's goal was simple: he knew that Yunyin's AB combination was very compatible, so he wanted to separate the two as much as possible.

Earth Magic: Meteor Shower!

Almost the instant the wall of fire rose, Qingwu cast a spell again.

The magic transitions were fluid and seamless.

In the sky, a vortex of another dimension opened, and dozens of meteorites burning with raging flames, each over a meter in diameter, trailing long fiery tails, rained down on Raikage like a storm.

Yes, he knew that all tailed beasts were Chatons, let alone the Eight-Tails.

Therefore, the target was the Raikage from the very beginning.

The Raikage's explosive power may be stronger than Killer Bee's, but in terms of "endurance," he injured him last time, so this time he is naturally "feeling his way across the river."

"Damn it, are you underestimating me?"

The Raikage saw through his opponent's intentions. He roared and, maintaining his "Lightning Release Armor" state, suddenly and rapidly threw a punch upwards.

Amidst the sonic boom, the Raikage scoffed, "You really think you can kill me by focusing fire?"

Boom boom boom—!!

This guy has brains, but not many. Last time, he used his explosive power to clash with magic, and this time it's the same.

Little did they know that, compared to dodging, exchanging blows consumes far more chakra.

In the original work, the Raikage cut off one of his arms after being burned by Amaterasu, and his fighting style has always been very reckless.

Qingwu, on the other hand, excels at attrition warfare.

Mumu occasionally coordinates with Qingwu to unleash a few spells, while also controlling all the withered tree guards to prevent the separated Killer Bee from getting closer.

Hero units with intelligence are truly the best partners for Qingwu.

The battle lasted for more than ten minutes.

Neither side can do anything about the other for the time being.

Both the Raikage and Killer Bee began to get impatient.

This "forest" is so torturous, there's no time to relax.

"Damn it! Forget about all that! Tailed Beast Transformation! Let's take down that big one first!"

Under the barrage of spells, the Raikage finally lost his temper.

"Understood! Big brother! Yo~! Eight-Tails, lend me some chakra~! You idiot! You bastard!"

Killer Bee no longer held back, roaring to the sky as terrifying crimson chakra erupted from his body!

Four octopus tails made of chakra instantly extended from his back, his skin turned dark red, and he entered a semi-tailed beast state!

A terrifying atmosphere instantly swept across the entire area.

"Tailed Beast Ball!"

Killer Bee, in his half-tailed beast form, opened his mouth wide, and highly concentrated Yin-Yang chakra rapidly condensed into a small black ball, radiating a destructive aura!

Killer Bee truly lives up to his reputation as a perfect Jinchūriki; he can unleash a Tailed Beast Ball even in his half-Tailed Beast form.

"Mumu!"

Qingwu's eyes narrowed, not daring to be careless. He clapped his hands together, and Mumu did the same.

"Wood Release: Wood Human Technique!"

A gigantic wooden figure, entirely dark brown and seemingly carved from a thousand-year-old tree, rapidly took shape.

The wooden golem let out a silent roar, took a big step, and actively faced the tailed beast ball that was forming in Killer Bee's mouth!

Similar to the previous "Vajra Attracts Wood", when the level of natural energy reaches a certain point, the green parasol tree can freely entwine its roots in various ways.

His power system does not require any chakra nature transformation.

"What!?"

Faced with the rapidly approaching giant wooden golem, Killer Bee was startled and immediately launched the Tailed Beast Ball, which was not yet fully formed!

boom--!!!

The jet-black Tailed Beast Ball collided with the dark brown wooden doll.

A blinding light and a devastating shockwave erupted instantly!

The wooden figure let out a mournful cry as its upper body shattered into pieces in the explosion of the Tailed Beast Ball.

However, the lower half of the body stubbornly entangled and bound the energy of the explosion, limiting most of its power to a certain range.

At the same time, Qingwu shouted, "Spirit Summoning Technique!"

Ang ang ang—!

The cries of ten unicorns blended together, and the anti-magic halos also merged into one.

"Wood Release·Wooden Spindle Wall!"

The aftershocks of the explosion shook the entire battlefield, and a huge crater nearly 100 meters in diameter appeared near the center of the explosion.

Despite the wooden figure's consumption of energy, Qingwu and Mumu, who were behind the wooden ingot wall, remained unharmed.

"It's blocked!?"

Raikage's pupils contracted. Although the wooden doll was directly defeated and could not compare to the legendary First Hokage's Wood Release, its defensive power was still astonishing.

"It's not over yet!" Killer Bee was provoked.

"Yo~! Eight-Tails, come out and stretch your legs~! You idiot! You bastard!"

Killer Bee stopped suppressing himself and roared to the sky.

Crimson chakra completely engulfed him, and his body rapidly expanded. In the blink of an eye, a terrifying behemoth—the Eight-Tailed Gyūki—greater than Mumu, with eight octopus tails and bull horns on its head, appeared on the battlefield!

The raging chakra swept across the area like a tsunami.

Faced with the overwhelming pressure of the fully-formed Eight-Tails, Qingwu dared not hold back any longer. He took a deep breath and clapped his hands together.

Om-!

A vast and pure burst of natural energy erupted, his pupils turned into emerald arrows, red eyeshadow appeared on both sides of his cheeks, and his long hair moved without wind—Sage Mode, activated!

The moment the Sage Mode was activated, Mumu's massive body emitted soft "crackling" sounds, and ancient, natural green patterns appeared on its skin, making the natural energy emanating from its body even more solid.

Hero units receive a further boost to their attributes under the Sage Mode buff!

"Let's go, old buddy."

Qingwu whispered something, and his figure instantly disappeared from the top of the wooden roof, rushing towards Leiying along with the ten unicorns.

"Wood Release: All Cloth Bag Technique!"

Mumu pressed his palms to the ground, and countless giant hands, each as large as a house and made of wood, burst forth from the ground around the Eight-Tails, grabbing at its body and tail from all directions.

The strategy remains the same: focus fire on the Raikage, while Mumu is responsible for containing Killer Bee, who is not afraid of attrition.

"Go away!"
