Yes, the Hokage!

Feng Lan's lips curled up slightly. This was certainly feasible. In fact, during the Fourth Shinobi World War, the four Kage were resurrected using Edo Tensei because Orochimaru used White Zetsu as material, thus gaining power close to that of their former selves.

Although the current Edo Tensei has not been improved, as long as the materials become White Zetsu, it will definitely enhance Hashirama's power!

"In that case, the first variable is resolved. With the power of the First Generation, we will definitely be able to capture Killer Bee alive."

Feng Lan said seriously, "The second and third backup plans are for the Fourth Raikage. If he really gets so violent that he bites anyone he can get his hands on, we will have no choice but to use these two moves."

"Tell me about it." After a moment of excitement, Tobirama regained his composure and continued to ask.

"First of all, there's Shisui's Kotoamatsukami. Why didn't I let Shisui join the team that was capturing the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki?" Feng Lan said seriously. "Besides the fact that his most proficient genjutsu is ineffective against perfect Jinchuriki, the main reason is that I wanted to keep Kotoamatsukami as a trump card to control the berserk Raikage at a critical moment."

"But this is obviously not a foolproof plan, because Shisui may not be able to find an opportunity to use this technique on the Raikage. So the last trump card is the Rinnegan that we have been hiding until now, which was also not part of the team that captured Killer Bee!"

"If things really get to the point of no return, I will have Nagato unleash the full destructive power of the Rinnegan on the front lines, so that Kumogakure can see that even without the Nine-Tails, we have terrifying destructive power at the level of a Jinchūriki or even higher. At that time, even if the Fourth Raikage goes crazy, no one else will agree."

"Of course... this is just a backup plan."

After discussing the serious topic, Feng Lan suddenly smiled and said, "I'm 90% confident that as soon as the news that Killer Bee is still alive gets out, the Raikage will have no choice but to compromise!"

Chapter 100 Killer Bee

Having been controlled by Kotoamatsukami, Orochimaru, who is now completely obedient to Fenglan, quickly completed the process of undoing Hashirama's Impure World Reincarnation and summoning him again using White Zetsu as material.

Hashirama, now resurrected, clenched his fist, feeling the surging power within his body, then sighed slightly, "No, I still can't use Sage Mode."

Of course, this was only his perspective on feeling discouraged; in reality, Feng Lan thought it was great.

Currently, Hashirama cannot use the Great Buddha and Myojin Gate in Sage Mode, nor can he use the Wood Golem. However, he has unlocked powerful moves such as the Wood Dragon and the Sea of ​​Flower Trees, making him many times stronger than when he could only use the Advent of the Tree World when fighting the Third Hokage.

Most importantly, he could use these to demonstrate to Obito, which was much more detailed than simply giving verbal instruction. You have to know that Obito had the Sharingan and could observe the direction of chakra flow in his body when Hashirama demonstrated the use of various techniques!

Now that the most crucial issue of combat strength had been resolved, Feng Lan immediately set off for Kumogakure. This team that captured the Jinchuriki included the Edo Tensei First and Second Hokage, the Edo Tensei Third Kazekage, the Sannin, Obito Uchiha, Hizashi Hyuga, and Pakura.

Logically, Dai should have replaced Pakura here, as the uncertainty of her being a Sand Ninja is too high. However, Fenglan specifically brought this woman along because he wanted her to pass on something to Rasa and even the entire ninja world.

There wasn't much to say along the way. It was difficult for a team of strong individuals of this caliber to encounter any difficulties. Obito was constantly learning from Hashirama and his progress was visibly rapid. Meanwhile, Fenglan continued to pester Tobirama for lessons, spending each day being met with disdain and disdain.

Finally, we arrived at Yunlei Gorge.

Feng Lan had no intention of invading in broad daylight like Sasuke had done, with the entire squad lined up horizontally and sending their men to their deaths one by one.

He found a cave and began to arrange for everyone to rest, explaining the precautions to take when capturing the Eight-Tails. He waited patiently until late at night, when he estimated that Killer Bee was already asleep and even the guards monitoring the Cloud Thunder Gorge were starting to doze off, before instructing everyone to prepare for action.

The Hidden Cloud Village and the Thunder Cloud Gorge were naturally covered with barriers, so even if White Zetsu invaded, they would be detected immediately. However, Obito had a cheat code.

He first used Kamui to suck everyone into the Kamui dimension, then blurred and passed through the barrier. After seeing Killer Bee, he simply released a truckload of bread-like figures to gang up on him.

"This is it."

Obito's Sharingan looked into the void. What Feng Lan could not see was filled with runes and spells in his eyes. As long as someone crossed through, an alarm would be triggered immediately.

This was not only to guard against the possibility of someone going in, but also to prevent Kirabi from escaping.

However, in the face of Obito's Hollowfication, all barriers were no different from curtains. He passed through the barrier with ease and then released two people from the space, namely Hizashi and Pakura.

"You two take my kunai and keep an eye on the movements of Kumogakure. If anyone comes to help, blow up the cliff tops on both sides to stop them for a moment, but really just for a moment. After you're done blowing them up, retreat immediately and run back to meet up with us."

Feng Lan's instructions still echoed in their ears, and the two dared not be careless. As soon as they were released from the Divine Might Space, they immediately went into hiding. Hizashi activated his Byakugan and stared intently at the direction of Yunlei Gorge.

The others remained in the Kamui dimension, relying on the Hollowfied Obito to penetrate deeper and easily sneak into the cave where Killer Bee was resting.

However, his good luck ended there.

"Shh!"

A sharp blade of light pierced the air, imbued with the power of lightning. It could be seen that Killer Bee, who threw the blade, was still half-lying on the bed, clearly having just realized that an enemy had invaded and instinctively throwing out his weapon to test the waters.

"You're something else... you're not simple."

Obito spoke coldly, realizing that he had only just appeared and hadn't even deactivated his Hollowfication yet, and that Killer Bee had already discovered him. This level of vigilance was truly terrifying.

"Your skills are not bad, but your eyes aren't sharp enough. I, your great master, made a name for myself in the Third Shinobi World War!" Killer Bee's rap wasn't exactly outstanding, but he kept repeating it. "Konoha brat, running around to the Cloud Thunder Gorge in the middle of the night, you didn't just come to fetch water, did you? Let me give you a good spanking, yoo~"

Although Obito was currently wearing a red cloud and black robe, Killer Bee still saw through his identity because the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan was too famous. He seemed to be handling it with great ease, obviously because he had been under house arrest for too long and wanted to find someone to spar with.

But the next second...

"Shhhhhh!"

The Divine Might Space opened, and a large group of people poured out from it.

Leading the charge was naturally Hashirama Senju. Over his dark red armor, he also wore the Akatsuki's red cloud black robe. Feng Lan was very satisfied with this. A transmigrator who could make the First and Second Hokage wear Akatsuki robes was much more impressive than dating Tsunade.

"boom!"

This powerful punch missed Killer Bee; he dodged backward, rapping as he went, "Your chakra is dangerous, more conspicuous than thunderclouds in the sky~"

Although his tone was relatively relaxed, Killer Bee's body began to surge with crimson chakra, clearly sensing that something was wrong and starting to mobilize the power of the Eight-Tails.

Wood Release!

Hashirama clapped his hands: "The Sea of ​​Flowering Trees has descended!"

The rock wall cracked, and dozens of thick logs emerged from all directions, like hundreds of giant pythons coiling around Kirabi. Vines, branches, and roots spread wildly, instantly filling the space inside the cave, trying to completely envelop the person in the center.

Moreover, at the top of the branches, several dazzling giant flowers bloom, slowly scattering pale golden dust.

"Oh no! Hold your breath! Fight!" A startled voice came from the Eight-Tails' heart. "That's the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju! Don't fight him head-on! Immediately transform into your Tailed Beast form and run towards the village!"

Of the Tailed Beasts, the One-Tailed Beast was captured by Sunagakure itself, so it always harbored the greatest hostility towards Sunagakure. The Nine-Tailed Beast was controlled by Madara, so it hated Madara the most. The other six Tailed Beasts were all captured by Hashirama, and they had an instinctive aversion and fear of the First Hokage.

"Ugh...yo!"

Killer Bee let out a high-pitched roar and immediately entered its Tailed Beast form. Its massive body shook the surrounding wood, causing it to crack inch by inch, and the entire Cloud Thunder Gorge shook violently.

"The Hidden Cloud Village should have noticed by now!" Feng Lan shouted, "Full firepower!"

"Sand Iron Boundary Law!"

The Third Kazekage made the first move, forming a massive, all-encompassing net of dark matter that enveloped the Eight-Tails. Orochimaru also used his classic Hidden Shadow Snake Hand technique, but the iron sand net and the swarm of snakes were instantly torn apart. The Eight-Tails desperately clawed at its surroundings, trying to break through the hole and escape.

However, after finally tearing the branches above him apart, he discovered that what lay above him was no longer a crumbling rock wall, but a remarkably flexible wall of flesh. Jiraiya once again used the Toad Mouth Binding Technique, dragging everything around him into the esophagus of the Giant Toad.

"Xiao Ba, use your ultimate move!"

"Oh!"

Killer Bee, a decisive man, immediately unleashed his full chakra upon sensing the danger. The eight giant octopus tails of the Eight-Tails abruptly retracted, and his entire body curled into a tight sphere. The immense chakra compressed within him, condensing into a destructive vortex of energy. The air began to twist and swirl, forming an invisible suction force. Once activated, this power would be enough to engulf and tear apart everything around it.

"Tailed Beast Eight..."

"Wood Release: Wood Dragon Technique!"

The Tailed Beast Eight Scrolls require a little time to charge up, and the Wood Dragon Technique also requires some time to charge up for Obito and the incomplete Hashirama. Moreover, because their companions bought them time, the two of them had already completed their charge-up ahead of time.

Two giant dragons emerged from the branches, the smaller one wrapping around the right forelimb of the Eight-Tails and biting the skin of the Gyuki with its wood-style body. The wood-like structure extended tiny roots as if it were alive, piercing into the Gyuki's body and beginning to absorb its chakra.

The wooden dragon from the Hashirama clan was even more exaggerated, spiraling down from the Eight-Tails' left shoulder and coiling around Gyuki's entire chest like a snake. With both exerting their power simultaneously, the Eight-Tails' coiled body was forcibly pulled apart, and the "Tailed Beast Eight Scrolls," which was only half-charged, was forcibly torn apart.

"Damn it, he's draining my chakra..." the Eight-Tails gritted its teeth, for Wood Release is the bane of tailed beasts.

He struggled unsteadily, still trying to get up, but just then...

"Drink!"

Tsunade leaped high into the air and slammed her fist, as big as a casserole dish, down hard on the Eight-Tails' head. Even this powerful tailed beast was momentarily stunned and fell to the ground with a thud. Killer Bee, needless to say, was seeing stars.

However, even as he felt dizzy, he couldn't help but mutter, "Breasts, such big breasts..." (This was Killer Bee's reaction when he saw Tsunade in the original work).

"Is this the time to be eyeing someone's breasts?!"

The Eight-Tails was so angry that it laughed. At this moment, not only the Wood Dragon, but also the Flower Tree Sea, under the control of Hashirama and Obito, wrapped around it and tightly bound the Eight-Tails' huge body.

"More and more of our chakra is being drained. These people came prepared. Let's cut off our tails and escape!"

As the Eight-Tails spoke, without waiting for Killer Bee, who was still seeing stars, to reply, it pushed him towards its tail and poured most of its chakra into it.

This is the trick that the Eight-Tails, with its octopus tail, is best at: cutting off its tail to escape. Killer Bee used this trick to cut off its tail and run away after being burned by Sasuke's Amaterasu. Later, even when Madara extracted the Tailed Beast directly from his body, Killer Bee was able to use this trick to leave an octopus tentacle so that it could survive. Keep in mind that even Naruto, the protagonist, was almost killed by this trick, but Killer Bee was unharmed, which shows how abnormal it is.

Unfortunately, he encountered Feng Lan, who was familiar with the plot.

The tail, which concealed its true form, had just touched the ground when Feng Lan, who had been monitoring the battlefield with her senses, pointed sharply: "There it is!"

In an instant, Wood Dragon, Iron Sand, Fire Release, Super Strength... all the techniques rushed towards that octopus leg.

"Damn it! How did that brat know?!"

The Eight-Tails and Killer Bee were both shocked and furious. They could no longer hold back and hastily used a large amount of chakra to launch Killer Bee's body out of the octopus's tentacles, heading straight for the opening that was not yet completely sealed by the fleshy walls.

However, just as he arrived at the cave entrance, he saw several kunai with strange markings hanging there. Before he could think about it, he heard a strong wind rushing past his head.

Just as Hashirama and Obito attacked simultaneously, Tobirama and Fenglan, both of whom relied on their brains in battle, also keenly seized this perfect opportunity to strike. They both flashed above Killer Bee, their swords clashing as they slashed down, shouting in unison:

"Flying Thunder God Slash!"

Chapter 101 Victory and Escape

The incredibly sharp longswords clashed, slashing a huge "X"-shaped wound into Killer Bee's body.

The Third Kazekage raised a finger: "Iron Sand Rain!"

The jet-black, fine iron sand shot out like bullets, hitting various parts of Killer Bee's body. Although the Third Kazekage was not a puppet at the moment, so the iron sand contained no toxins, it carried a huge magnetic force and began to affect the blood circulation in Killer Bee's body.

The fleshy walls of the giant toad began to spread, devouring and digesting the tailed beast cloak that the Eight-Tails was protecting Killer Bee's body. Two wood dragons, one large and one small, also caught up and tied him up tightly, continuously absorbing his chakra.

"Damn it... Bi! Wake up, this is really bad!"

The demon was still trying to call for his companions, but Orochimaru's venomous snake coiled around him again and bit Killer Bee's neck.

Bound by the Wood Dragon and the Giant Toad of Rocks on his body, and imprisoned by Iron Sand and Snake Venom inside his body, and with his chakra being continuously drained by Wood Release, this perfect Jinchuriki ultimately failed to cause much trouble. He was captured alive before he could even unleash a Tailed Beast Ball.

Killer Bee's defeat was truly unjust. If he and Ya-Tails had been prepared to fight to the death from the beginning, they would never have been captured so easily. Unfortunately, both of them... mainly because Ya-Tails' every move was within Feng Lan's prediction.

From his fear of seeing Hashirama, to his lucky escape by cutting off his tail, and then to deliberately leaving the cave entrance not completely covered by the giant toad, it was all to create the illusion for the Eight-Tails that he could escape.

Since the tailed beast, which is best at escaping, thinks it can get away, it naturally won't stay and fight to the death with them. This is the principle behind the saying "when besieging an enemy, leave an opening."

"Lord Jiraiya, erase all traces of the battle! Lord Hashirama, please keep him under control!"

Feng Lan immediately gave the order: "Retreat before the cave collapses!"

……

Outside Yunlei Gorge, Fenglan and his group didn't have Sasuke's good luck. The moment the cave shook violently, the Hidden Cloud Village immediately realized something was wrong.
