The Second-Tails Matatabi's Recognition

The Two-Tails used its fiery tail to strike the Water Formation Wall, splashing up a large amount of water.

However, they were unable to break through Shiyu's Water Release Ninjutsu defense for the time being.

The area around the Water Formation Wall fell silent once again.

"Where's the Two-Tails?" Through his senses, Shiyu saw the Two-Tails running in another direction.

"It got away already!?" Shiyu looked incredulous as he dispelled the Water Formation Wall and prepared to chase after the Two-Tails.

Shiyu noticed that the Two-Tails stopped running, then turned around, opened its mouth, and began to fuse its red and blue chakra.

"This is Tailed Beast Ball!" Shiyu was also taken aback. He couldn't use his Mangekyo right now, so he could only use Flying Thunder God: Guiding Thunder to transfer it to another location.

However, after the fierce battle with the Third Raikage, Kunai marked with the Flying Thunder God Mark were destroyed, and the remaining ones were mostly scattered around. Moving the Tailed Beast Ball from in front to behind was essentially meaningless.

"The Katsuyu's liquefaction ability is good, but it can only passively take hits. Why not use this move instead?" Shiyu made his decision.

"Summoning Technique!" Shiyu quickly summoned Katsuyu, placed it on his body, then activated his Bloody Power Mode, ultimately opening the Seventh Gate of the Eight Inner Gates, the Gate of Wonder.

"Asura Mode - Seventh Gate! Day Bear!" Shiyu's entire body was enveloped in blue sweat vapor, and the chakra he unleashed far exceeded that of the Two-Tails.

The Two-Tails ignored everything else and focused solely on condensing the Tailed Beast Ball.

Shiyu was also gathering and enhancing his ultimate attack Day Tiger. Shiyu from dark blue to glowing blue.

Extremely pure chakra and energy are concentrated in Shiyu's hand, transforming into the most ferocious bear paw attack.

The instant the Two-Tails Matatabi spat out the Tailed Beast Ball, Shiyu also released Day Bear.

"Boom!" The two attacks finally collided, exploding with dazzling light. The surrounding dust was blown away, and the hurricane blew in all directions. The ground looked like it had been bombed by an atomic bomb, turning into a huge crater.

The Tailed Beast Ball was made of Yang Release Chakra, but Shiyu's attack was an ultimate Taijutsu attack. Both sides were very strong, and neither of them gained the upper hand at the beginning of the attack.

However, Shiyu's attack quickly gained the upper hand again. In Asura Mode, Shiyu could ignore the damage from the first Seventh Gate of the Eight Inner Gates, making him virtually invincible for a certain period of time.

"I'll give you another palm strike!" Shiyu the Day Bear with his other palm. The Two-Tails was already struggling to withstand Shiyu's attack, let alone continue to be attacked by Shiyu.

The Two-Tails was instantly swallowed by Shiyu's Day Bear. The bear's paw, which felt like it weighed millions of tons, struck the Two-Tails, sending it flying and crashing to the ground.

"Cats and bears are not even in the same league." Shiyu then immediately went to the Two-Tails' Two-Tails, touched it, and before he could absorb its bloodline power, he entered his own inner world.

Immediately afterwards, the Two-Tails, like the other Tailed Beast, appeared in Shiyu's inner world. This world was very empty, containing only Shiyu and the Two-Tails; it was difficult not to see each other.

Two-Tails was also taken aback Shiyu in front of it.

"A human boy? Where is this? Could this be in your inner world?"

Shiyu then said, "This is one of my abilities; it allows you to enter my inner world."

"Me? Us?" Two-Tails was both puzzled and curious.

"Yes, I've already met the One-Tails Shukaku, the Four-Tails Son Goku, the Five-Tails Kokuō, the Seven-Tails Chōmei, and the Nine-Tails -Kurama. You're the sixth," Shiyu said. "The Two-Tails, Matatabi."

"You even know my name?? How do you know our names? Did they tell you? And what does all this mean?" Two-Tails was somewhat wary, but still quite polite and courteous.

"I know the names of all the Tailed Beast. What does all this mean? I don't know. I'm here to tell you that the so-called Child of Prophecy will appear in twenty years."

"He will change the current state of the Shinobi World, and an era of mutual understanding will eventually come," Shiyu advised.

"You know all our names? And you seem to know even more? I feel like you're more like the Child of Prophecy than you claim to Child of Prophecy?" Two-Tails Matatabi said.

"Besides, we just fought. Am I not your enemy?" Two-Tails Matatabi.

Shiyu shook her head and said, "There are no enemies, just different stances. If everyone can calm down and talk things out, there shouldn't be any problems."

"This is the first time I've heard a human speak like this," said Matatabi. "Although I don't know who you are, your attire and demeanor really remind me of the Sage of Six Paths!"

"Oh? Is that so? Two-Tails, you're quite observant! They saw me too, but they didn't notice anything." Shiyu said with a faint smile.

"Alright, that attack wasn't at full power. With your chakra reserves, you should be able to recover, right?" Shiyu asked.

"Of course! If you hadn't stopped at the most crucial moment, I wouldn't have talked to you for so long; Matatabi would have killed you with a single claw long ago," Two-Tails quipped.

"Haha! Well, thank you so much!" Shiyu meant no harm. After all, the Tailed Beast were all influenced by evil humans, which is why they became synonymous with pain and evil.

They are inherently free, yet they are captured by humans and turned into weapons of war. Anyone would feel resentment in this situation.

"Alright! I should go back now!" Matatabi Two-Tails.

"This woman never talks to anyone. Once she takes control of the body, she should faint. This will force Kumogakure to retreat, and your comrade will be safe." Matatabi, the Two-Tails, is exceptionally easy to talk to among the Tailed Beast and is genuinely concerned for Shiyu.

"Thank you!" Shiyu raised her fist and said, "I want to help you, can you trust me?"

Two-Tails naturally raised his Cat Claw and said, "I believe there's a familiar feeling about you, Matatabi I don't want to refuse."

Shiyu raised his hand and bumped fists with the Two-Tails, then truly absorbed the Two-Tails' bloodline power. Of course, most importantly, he enhanced the Two-Tails' potential and strengthened its chakra.

"Wow... my chakra has actually increased?!"

"My chakra has increased so much!! I'm really surprised!"

"Even an old man probably doesn't have such amazing abilities!"

Two-Tails Matatabi also very grateful and truly accepted Shiyu.

"Thank you! What's your name?" asked Two-Tails Matatabi.

"My name is Shiyu, Uchiha Shigure," Shiyu replied.

"I will never forget you! I'm leaving." With Two-Tails Matatabi departed from Shiyu's inner world.
