Hidden Cloud Village, the central area near the Raikage Building.
A powerful and manic roar tore through the night sky, waking everyone in the village from their dreams.
"Barrier Team, evacuate all villagers within a thousand meters! Deploy the Iron Wall Cloud Formation!"
"Sealing Team, stand by for now, watch for the right moment to deploy the seal!"
"Combat Team, charge with me, don't give it time to launch a Tailed Beast Ball!"
A, with a solemn expression, commanded the battle while taking the lead in charging forward.
In the very center of the field, a massive creature, entirely pink, was rampaging and destroying everything. It had two horns on its head, its roar was like thunder, and eight enormous octopus tentacles flailed wildly!
Not far from its feet, B, the Eight-Tails' Jinchuriki, was buried in the rubble. The Tailed Beast had separated from him, which meant that B was now a corpse.
Lightning flashed, and about twenty Ninja surrounded and fought the Eight-Tails, countless Ninjutsu covered it, but all to little effect.
The Eight-Tails roared, and its two thick arms uprooted a tall tower, smashing it down towards the Cloud Ninja with a deafening crash.
"Damn it!"
A roared angrily, and as lightning flashed, his whole body was enveloped in a Lightning Release armor, and he slammed into the Eight-Tails.
"Bang!"
The enormous impact actually staggered the Eight-Tails' massive body.
It swung its arm back, swatting A away. A streak of lightning crashed through three streets in a row, and swaths of buildings collapsed and shattered.
"Lightning Release Collaboration Technique: Sixteen-Pillar Restraint!"
The Anbu members pressed their hands to the ground simultaneously, and sixteen stone pillars rose from the ground, trapping the Eight-Tails' huge body in the center as if in a cage.
With a "crack," blinding lightning burst out from the stone pillars at the same time, turning into a lightning net that connected with each other. The blue lightning directly lit up the Eight-Tails.
But not only did this move not cause any damage to the Eight-Tails, it completely enraged it. Its eight long tentacles lashed out like fists, smashing all the stone pillars to pieces with wild flailing.
Two Ninja who couldn't retreat in time were buried in the rubble, their fates unknown.
"Crack, crack, crack!"
Several powerful Jonin took the opportunity to surround it, swinging huge chains to entangle the Eight-Tails' arms and tentacles. Dozens of people worked together, trying to restrict its movements.
"Aaaaaah!"
With the roar of the Cloud Ninja, the thick iron chains became taut in an instant.
Uchiha Hikari, who was watching the battle from the sidelines, couldn't help but nod, thinking that Hidden Cloud Village was indeed a Ninja village specializing in Ninja Body Techniques, daring to use such primitive methods to fight a Tailed Beast.
However, human strength was ultimately limited, how could it compare to a Tailed Beast? The Eight-Tails only used a little force to throw everyone far away like yo-yos.
The Eight-Tails jumped in place and landed with a bang, the heavy force cracking the ground and causing everyone surrounding it to sway. Taking advantage of this, it raised its head and began to condense a Tailed Beast Ball.
A bolt of lightning came from afar, like a shooting lightning arrow, hitting the top of the Eight-Tails' head, instantly interrupting the Chakra being condensed!
But soon, this future Second Raikage was once again swatted away, and the buildings within a thousand meters were devastated.
There was no way around it, his methods were too simple. If it was just a battle between Ninja, he would definitely be a top-notch offensive weapon, but he was facing a Tailed Beast.
The Tailed Beasts possess power and chakra far exceeding ordinary Kage-level ninja!
"Keke."
Crisp bone cracking sounds echoed as Kinkaku and Ginkaku stretched their limbs and stepped forward.
"Kinkaku, it seems some people are having a hard time."
"Indeed, Ginkaku, I wonder if Lord A needs us two old-timers to lend a hand."
A's pupils constricted, and he hurriedly scrambled out of the rubble, "Hold on, you two can't interfere. If you really want to help, use your Amber Purifying Pot to try and seal the Eight-Tails!"
Ginkaku spread his hands, looking at his brother, "Kinkaku, Kinkaku, it seems some people have a bad memory? If that thing was usable, wouldn't we have used it already?"
"Indeed, Ginkaku, the last time the Two-Tails Jinchuriki went berserk, the Two-Tails was still sealed inside the Amber Purifying Pot. Recklessly opening the lid and releasing another Tailed Beast wouldn't be good."
"Damn it!" A's expression was anxious. With the First Raikage not here, suppressing the Eight-Tails with just himself would require unleashing his full power, but that would destroy the village!
Having the Kinkaku and Ginkaku brothers, who possess the Nine-Tails' power, step in would be the same. Moreover, those two lose their humanity once they start fighting, which would only make the situation worse!
"Buzz—"
A vast and heavy aura spread across the field like a rising tide. The Eight-Tails opened its massive maw, and red and blue chakra reappeared, enveloping the entire Hidden Cloud Village in a dangerous aura!
A disregarded the potential losses and immediately activated his Lightning Release Armor, slamming into the Eight-Tails and interrupting its charging once again.
As the battle progressed, countless buildings collapsed and shattered. Fortunately, the residents had been evacuated beforehand, so there were no civilian casualties for the time being.
But this wasn't a long-term solution. Relying on A alone to fight was like a drop in the bucket. Sooner or later, the Eight-Tails would break through the Barrier and wreak havoc.
Just as the Kinkaku and Ginkaku brothers were hesitating whether to intervene, a calm, girlish voice came from behind them.
"Let me handle it. As long as eye contact is made, the battle can be ended in an instant."
Kinkaku immediately turned around, advising, "But… that would not only expose the master's existence but also consume a lot of your power…"
"It can't be helped. In the future plans, the Eight-Tails is a crucial component and cannot be allowed to fail." Light raised her hands, revealing a pair of scarlet, beautiful Mangekyo Sharingan eyes beneath her black gauze cloak.
"Besides, I don't want it to run out and slaughter civilians either."
At this moment, A was struck by the Eight-Tails' tentacle again, flying far away, and there were no other ninja in the field.
Just as Light was about to act, the Eight-Tails suddenly roared and used its eight tentacles to wrap around its body, like a giant, alien flower bud.
"Tailed Beast Eight Twists!"
Kinkaku and Ginkaku immediately dashed forward, firmly protecting the petite Light behind them.
"Master, leave quickly! This move will likely level most of the Hidden Cloud Village!"
A desperate cry came from afar:
"Barrier team, maintain the Barrier at all costs!"
Just then, a ghostly shadow streaked across the night sky. The air rapidly rubbed against it, forming a scorching and distorted airflow. The meteor's plummeting momentum was like a divine soldier descending from the heavens!
Of everyone present, only Light saw clearly that it was a young man!
He instantly shattered the Barrier, as easily as breaking sugar candy, and without the slightest pause, he crashed into the "flower bud" formed by the Eight-Tails, causing the entire Hidden Cloud Village to tremble!
"Boom!"
The storm swept in, crushing the debris into dust!
Light didn't hide behind the Kinkaku and Ginkaku brothers; instead, she pushed them aside and stepped forward.
The surging gale gradually dissipated, revealing a black-haired youth standing with his hands behind his back atop the Eight-Tails, his eyes clear and his appearance remarkably handsome.
The Eight-Tails beneath him was no longer violent, as quiet as a calf, its two lantern-sized bull eyes now shaped like Three-Tomoe Sharingan.
Shin'yu looked down at Light, his black hair gently swaying, a faint smile on his face, "Am I late?"
Light was stunned for a moment, then smiled gently, "No..."
"You're just in time."
