Crystal Release vs. the Three-Tails! A sudden explosion
Why is the front door wide open?
As Kakashi entered the fortress Prison, he asked in confusion.
Then he noticed the strangely shaped experimental subjects in the surrounding cells.
"It seems this is one of Orochimaru's strongholds. He's truly ruthless, turning people into this..." Kakashi frowned.
Sai nearby, asked, "By the way, why is the main gate open here, and why are some of the buildings empty... Wait, what's with that operating table?! (꒪⌓꒪)"
"Akamaru told me he smelled the Breath of the Shinki here," Kiba suddenly said.
Connecting this to what Ya said, and the operating table constructed from Wood Release.
It's not hard to tell that Shinki has already been here!
"What is he doing setting up an operating table here? Has he become a bad scientist like Orochimaru, conducting all sorts of inhuman experiments on human bodies?" Sai couldn't help but ask.
"Do you think that's possible?"
Ya retorted, "Shinki must have his reasons for doing this."
Kakashi agreed with Kiba and nodded.
Later, the group investigated the fortress Prison and learned about Guren's whereabouts, as well as that Shinki had conducted experiments here to remove the Cursed Seal...
"So it was to remove the Cursed Seal. Shinki did this for Sasuke..."
Kakashi sighed, realizing what was happening.
Shinki, that child, still remembers his old friends!
Meanwhile, the three members of the Akatsuki were also rushing on their way.
"I wonder if that Red-Haired Kid knows about our capture of the Three-Tails," Deidara, who was flying in the sky, suddenly asked.
"He came in after you finished discussing capturing the Three-Tails, how could he have heard anything!" Sasori said.
Deidara looked suspicious and uncertain. "That kid has all sorts of strange and unpredictable methods. Who knows if he has other ways to overhear our conversation through the ring!"
"Deidara- senpai must have been terrified by that red-haired boy! ( ˝ᗢ̈˝ )"
Tobi, standing next to him, mocked him without any restraint.
Deidara: "Tobi! You're asking for it! (눈益눈)"
Scorpion, speechless, watched the two about to start arguing again and raised his voice, "Stop fooling around! Let's confirm the strategy for capturing the Three-Tails later!"
Deidara said nonchalantly, "There's no need to confirm that kind of thing!"
"The Three-Tails isn't like the other Tailed Beasts; it doesn't have Jinchūriki, so it's easier to deal with. (^ワ^)"
Beside the two of them.
Tobi, who had been lively and running around everywhere, suddenly became serious.
Beneath the mask, the pupil of the only remaining eye trembled.
"Is there no Jinchūriki...?"
In the center of a vast lake.
Guren, Yukimaru, and Gozu sat on the boat.
After pinpointing the location of the Three-Tails, Guren, following the method taught to her by Kabuto Yakushi, put a helmet on Yukimaru and fed him a handful of pills...
"Although I don't know what the connection is between you and the Three-Tails, please do your best later."
"I will help you find your destiny after this mission is successful!"
Guren said firmly.
After doing all this, she went onto the water and had the Gozu row the boat back a little.
Gozu did as he was told.
The next moment, Guren formed hand seals and shouted!
"Crystal Release: Crystal Hexagonal Pillar!!"
"Whoosh--!"
Six pillars made of pink crystal shot out of the water and formed a circle!
At the same time, Yukimaru, wearing a strange device, let out a howl behind Guren, appearing to be in extreme pain!
"Splash--"
After this symptom lasted for several tens of seconds, dense bubbles appeared in the center of the crystal hexagonal column array!
Immediately afterwards!!
"Whoosh--!"
A giant turtle has surfaced!
This tortoise was enormous, measuring forty to fifty meters in length, and had a single, scarlet eye and Three of Bamboos bizarre tails!
"So this is the Three-Tails? It certainly has an imposing presence!"
Guren said excitedly.
She could almost see herself successfully completing this mission, and being used by Lord Orochimaru as his vessel for the next reincarnation!
The Three-Tails fox's only remaining eye glanced at the Guren.
Then!
"Buzz--"
A massive amount of Chakra radiated outwards from the body of this giant turtle!!
In the center of the lake, waves tens of meters high suddenly surged!
Correspondingly, the hexagonal crystal array that Guren had previously created was shattered in half by the blast!
Behind them, Yukimaru's painful cries continued.
Seeing this, Guren knew that he had not yet fully controlled the Three-Tails...
"It seems we need some manpower to assist us!"
Guren roared and charged forward, forming hand seals!
"Crystal Release: Crystal-Breaking Dragon Subduing Technique!!"
"Whoosh!"
Three of Bamboos giant pink dragons made of crystal burst forth from beneath the lake, hurtling towards the location of the Three-Tails creature!
For an attack that was merely a tickle, the Three-Tails didn't even lift its leg; it simply released its Chakra and shattered the crystal dragon!
Seeing that things were going badly, Guren quickly retreated!
"Splash!!"
One of the Three-Tails suddenly slammed heavily onto the water's surface!
Suddenly, a wave surged, causing Guren to lose her footing and nearly fall.
After she regained her senses, she discovered that the Three-Tails had opened its mouth, and countless Chakra were gathering and compressing within it!
Although the Chakra sphere is currently only the size of a fist, the energy it contains, if unleashed, could easily destroy a mountain!
"Gurgle~"
Guren nervously swallowed.
She knew she had greatly underestimated the Tailed Beasts!
Just as she was about to retreat and pull Yukimaru away, she suddenly noticed a large white bird appearing in the sky!
There seems to be a person sitting on the large bird!
Immediately afterwards, the person on the bird's back dropped a white object...
Then, the man on the bird's back let out a loud shout.
"Drink!!"
The white clay he had thrown down earlier suddenly exploded!!
"Boom--!"
The terrifying explosion engulfed almost half of the lake!
Under the intense heat of the explosion, Guren even felt the water level drop slightly!
At the moment of the explosion, she used Crystal Release to create a barrier and protect herself.
But the Gozu and Yukimaru at the rear are in big trouble!!
Realizing what had happened, Guren hurriedly turned around and shouted towards the location of the small boat fragments on the lake, "Gozu! Yukimaru! Are you alright?!"
A few seconds later, Yukimaru's small head surfaced. "I'm alright, Guren."
"Where's the Gozu?" Guren asked, frowning.
"At the moment of the explosion, Gozu shielded me with his body," Yukimaru said somewhat apologetically.
"He said I'm essential for you to complete your mission, so you have to protect me..."
Guren's eyes flickered; she couldn't understand why Gozu would go to such lengths for her...
After a brief analysis of the current situation, Guren looked up at the lake shore.
Let's go.
"The Gozu is dead, and the device that allows you to control the Tailed Beasts is destroyed. There's no need for us to stay here any longer."
