Compared to the Eight-Tails, which could bounce around both on land and in water, the Three-Tails was a more specialized type. It was far stronger in water than on land.
On land, the Three-Tails was just a slow-moving giant turtle, utterly incomparable to the Eight-Tails, even if the Eight-Tails looked like a giant octopus.
When running, the Eight-Tails could not only use its eight long tails to move, but also rely on its two powerful arms. It might look bulky, but its speed was anything but slow.
Of course, it could not compare to Tailed Beasts like the Nine-Tails, much less the fastest, the Two-Tails, or the One-Tail, which had four legs yet moved unbelievably slowly.
Compared to them, that guy was barely any faster than the Three-Tails. Chubby and round, it gave off the impression of being excessively obese. Perhaps one reason the Nine-Tails mocked the One-Tail for being the weakest was its speed.
Just think about it—your four-legged giant tanuki could not even outrun an octopus. Where were you supposed to put your face?
You might as well wash it clean and hide it in your underwear to avoid embarrassing yourself.
"Bastard!!!"
Just as the Eight-Tails' attack missed, Kisame Hoshigaki latched onto it again. He was much faster than the Eight-Tails, and his smaller body made him far more agile, completely unlike the massive Eight-Tails.
Moreover, every attack drained a considerable amount of Chakra from the Eight-Tails. The Eight-Tails was not the Nine-Tails and could not refine Chakra on its own, not to mention that it had already lent a great deal of Chakra to Killer B earlier.
Now that so much Chakra was continuously being drained away, the Eight-Tails roared furiously again and again. Unfortunately, it had no way to deal with Kisame Hoshigaki.
