Roar--
Everyone had originally thought that a breathtaking, exceptionally fierce battle was about to break out.
In their imagination, the Nine-Tails would pounce on those few people with bared fangs and claws, spewing terrifying Tailed Beast Bombs from its mouth and sweeping its tails in all directions, kicking up clouds of dust.
However, reality completely exceeded the expectations of these Hidden Cloud Village ninjas.
After just one round, a scene that left everyone dumbfounded unfolded: the Nine-Tails had actually crouched docilely at the feet of those few people like a well-behaved puppy!
Everyone from the Hidden Cloud Village present was stunned. They stared wide-eyed at the scene before them, unable to believe what they were seeing.
Just then, something even more unbelievable began to unfold.
One of them reached out without hesitation and began stroking the Nine-Tails!
What on earth was he doing?
He was actually gently rubbing the Nine-Tails' head!
And the Nine-Tails? It acted incredibly obediently, even taking the initiative to move its head closer and let that person pet it!!
"I... I can't believe this!!"
Finally, one of the Hidden Cloud Village ninjas could no longer suppress the shock and bewilderment in his heart. He broke down and shouted in disbelief.
Another ninja beside him was equally horrified. He muttered to himself, "How is this possible? How is this possible?"
To make sure he wasn't dreaming, the ninja viciously slapped his companion beside him.
The ninja who had been struck immediately felt a sharp pain, but at the same time, he clearly realized that everything happening before him was real, not some illusory dream.
Even so, the scene before their eyes still lay far beyond what they could understand or accept.
The Nine-Tails! That was the monster from legend that struck terror into the hearts of all
