The Four-Tails, Five-Tails, and Two-Tails hurriedly climbed to their feet as well, sitting upright on the ground and staring nervously toward the shadows.
When they saw that it was not the figure etched into their souls, they let out heavy sighs of relief.
"Hm? Some little brat? Hey, do you know where this is?!"
When Shukaku saw the figure emerge from the shadows, he let out a long breath, bared his teeth, and put on an exceptionally ferocious expression.
"F-Five Tailed Beasts..."
Kushina looked at the five enormous, savage-looking creatures and nearly cried.
Was her snack food really that bad? Did they have to throw her in here to feed the Tailed Beasts?
"Whatever!"
Kushina gritted her teeth and formed a hand seal. The next instant, a tide of crimson chakra completely swallowed her figure.
"Hey, something's not right. Is this one a Jinchuriki?"
The Eight-Tails' gaze sharpened as he watched the enormous amount of Tailed Beast chakra emerge.
A Jinchuriki appearing in Konoha... that meant...
"Gurgle—gurgle—boom!!!"
The terrifying chakra tide swept out violently. Moments later, a ferocious fox-shaped beast over a hundred meters tall appeared, nine tails waving behind it.
"Hm? How did that bastard Kushina undo the seal?"
Scarlet eyes snapped open as sinister chakra continuously leaked out. The Nine-Tails moved his claws a few times, somewhat unaccustomed to being free.
As the Nine-Tails moved, terrifying ripples spread outward.
"Eek! So it's you, you damned Stinky Fox! Move a little more carefully!"
The moment Shukaku saw the Nine-Tails, he let out a shrill cry and roared in fury.
Damn it, this Stinky Fox started releasing chakra wildly the instant he came out.
If the Stinky Fox damaged this place, they would be the ones in trouble!
"Stinky Raccoon Dog? Two-Tails? Four-Tails? Five-Tails? Eight-Tails? Why are you all here?"
