The Great Battle

"Young Master Takeyasu, how could a human possibly defeat a monster of that level? Lady Minako Uzumaki, do you really have a chance of winning?"

The aura of [Catastrophe Dragon Lord] Setolqui pressed down relentlessly, making even the Black Persian Cat Edith, who had traveled to various countries, feel as insignificant as an ant, as if Setolqui could brush past her and kill her at any moment.

Is it strong?

Uchiha Takeyasu chuckled, patted the person beneath him, Kusuke, signaling everyone to step back a bit, then looked at the slender figure slowly walking towards Setolqui and said calmly.

"Strength is relative. To you, the [Catastrophe Dragon Lord] is indeed as powerful as a natural disaster that destroys everything, but to Minako, it is a rather good whetstone."

The moment the words fell, to the astonishment of the three women of the [Four Imperial Knights], a colossal beast with the body of a beetle and seven tails roared out from Minako Uzumaki's body, its flapping wings blotting out the sky and scattering scales everywhere.

"Eee-ooh!"

Upon discovering a formidable foe, Setolqui let out a long, soaring roar from its massive maw located on the tree trunk, and six tentacle branches, each over three hundred meters long, lashed out at the Seven-Tails like dragons, unleashing a devastating onslaught.

The airborne scales were directly pushed aside by the hurricane. Facing the mountain-like attacking branches, under the telepathic command of Minako Uzumaki, the Tailed Beast Ball that had been brewing in her mouth was spat out in a straight line, followed by a flick of her insect head.

Like a meteorite hitting the Earth, the six tentacle branches of Setolqui emitted a tremendous roar, and the energy wave that shot into the sky, carrying with it a sky full of blackish-green sap, poured down like a torrential rain, covering the ground within a radius of a thousand meters.

"This is a monster!"

The female warrior Sukama's once rosy lips, which had served Uchiha Takeo, turned pale, and her dry throat emitted a sigh-like murmur.

She couldn't understand how such monsters could exist in the world. If they broke into human cities, how could weak humans possibly survive!

"This is Tailed Beast from the Ninja World Continent. It's strong, but it can't be considered a monster."

Hearing Sukama's mutterings, Chiyo, who had casually remarked, looked at Minako Uzumaki her Kamui, with an extremely obscure expression.

She recalled the Black Horn Domain War, where Han from Iwagakure was Perfect Jinchuriki, the Five-Tails, who overpowered her and Bunpuku, the One-Tails Jinchuriki, forcing Bunpuku into Partial Tailed Beast Transformation. Hanzo of the Salamander to take advantage of the situation.

"This isn't a monster? Are there even stronger beings on the Ninja World Continent?"

The Shikata battle winds forced Goddess Official Lilinet to clench her horse's reins tightly, like a willow swaying on a riverbank, to prevent herself from being blown over.

Chiyo's eyes flickered at her frail appearance. She walked to Lilinet's side, supported her, and whispered, "Hasn't the one who treats Tailed Beast like toys always been by your side?"

Just as Lilinet finished expressing her gratitude, she suddenly looked up, saw Uchiha Takeyasu sitting on Kusuke, and then looked at Chiyo was nodding slightly beside her. She instinctively felt like she was in a dream.

Boom!

A deafening roar interrupted Lilinet's thoughts. She watched the changing situation on the battlefield, her large white breasts bobbing up and down with her rapid heartbeat.

"Eee-ooh!"

As Setolqui cried out in pain, an immense amount of magical power surged from his body.

Its roots were also continuously drawing power from the earth, and the tentacles and branches that had been severed by the Tailed Beast Ball were visibly regenerating and lashing out at the Seven-Tails like madmen.

"A beast without reason!"

Minako Uzumaki, having noticed this, was standing atop the Seven-Tails -Seven-Tails, calmly controlling it to dodge attacks and occasionally having it unleash a Seven-Tails Tailed Beast Ball to deplete its magical energy.

But seeing that Setolqui's recovery speed had not decreased at all, Minako Uzumaki undoubtedly realized the strength of his vitality and recovery ability.

Fortunately, her goal was to investigate Setolqui's methods. She saw that he only used one or two moves, opening his mouth and spitting out a raging sea of fire.

Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!

The Seven-Tails flapped its wings powerfully, creating a fierce gale comparable to an A-rank Ninjutsu, making the sea of fire burn even more fiercely, as if it had been doused with gasoline!

"Eee-ooh!"

As Setolqui was scorched by the flames, his cries rose higher, and magical light emanated from his body. A purple-green magic circle echoed the celestial phenomenon, and a torrential downpour immediately fell, sizzling against the sea of fire.

The earth, covered by roots, sprouted countless sharp and thick tree stumps, too large for one person to encircle. In the blink of an eye, the raging sea of fire vanished without a trace, leaving only a few remaining sparks, which were extinguished by the heavy rain in an instant.

After the purple-green magic circle faded, a dark green magic circle appeared on Setolqui's six tentacle branches.

The sudden increase in the speed of the tentacle branches' swings caught Seven-Tails off guard, causing it to be struck hard and fall straight to the ground.

The Seven-Tails- Tails emitted a sharp, mournful cry, its eyes flashing with struggle as if trying to awaken from the environment woven by the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan. Unfortunately, as long as Uchiha Takeyasu doesn't die, it will never be possible!

"[The Catastrophe Dragon Lord] is stronger than the Seven-Tails, no, stronger than the Eight-Tails!"

Minako Uzumaki's expression remained unchanged. After all, the Tailed Beast were merely Chakra suppliers. Once their strength advanced further, they would inevitably have to put this giant worm into the Konoha Science Academy to play its proper role.

The sudden turn of events involving the Seven-Tails left the onlookers breathless and tense, but seeing the composed and even appreciative Uchiha Takeyasu, they all felt relieved.

With this man around, even if the sky were to fall, he could hold it up!

"Sage Mode!"

The Senjutsu Chakra, originating from the Mount Myōboku lineage, began to replace the ordinary Chakra within the body.

Minako Uzumaki's face was adorned with sage-like eyeshadow, giving her gentle features a touch of wild charm that Uchiha Takeyasu.

No matter what, this beautiful and loyal woman always held a place in his heart.

"Immortal Technique: Adamantine Sealing Chains!"

Golden chains appeared densely from the void, instantly binding Setolqui's six tentacle branches.

Setolqui instinctively let out a cry of shock and anger. As the tree trunk's gaping maw contracted and opened, the condensed magical ripples corroded the golden chains, turning them a grayish-white color.

"Hiss!"

With a long howl, the Seven-Tails tails gathered power on the ground, and with the force of pushing down mountains and overturning pillars, they used the beetle horns on their heads to charge at the immobile Setolqui.

Without branches to act as a barrier, Setolqui immediately engaged the Seven-Tails with its Corrosive Ripple!
