"Lord Bee!"
"Lord Bee!"
All the Cloud Ninja around them were startled by what they saw.
An enemy who'd somehow emerged from underground had taken out their Jinchuriki in one move?
Some kind of Earth Style jutsu?

However.
Kawaki's smugness didn't last long. Killer B, the man he was holding hostage, suddenly erupted with power.
An ordinary ninja with a weapon pressed to a vital spot couldn't fight back, but a Jinchuriki with the power of a Tailed
