The Seven-Tails Goes Berserk!

Puff!

Kimimaro forcefully pressed the sharp bone sword in his hand downwards, and blood, like rain, gushed out from the gaps in the thick carapace as the Seven-Tails thrashed and rolled violently.

The Tailed Beast sealed inside the Jinchūriki do not have Original Body; only Tailed Beast chakra is sealed.

Theoretically, since Tailed Beast do not have Original Body, they cannot be attacked or damaged by physical attacks. However, the Seven-Tails in its perfect form can still be injured and bleed, and possesses physical attack and defense capabilities.

That's because the Jinchūriki is made of flesh and blood, serving as a medium to carry the Tailed Beast Chakra when it goes berserk, although it manifests in the form of the Tailed Beast's complete form.

However, it is still the body of Jinchūriki, which means that the blood that was spilled was the blood from Fu's body.

Seven-Tails Chōmei past overhead, frantically rolling its body, determined to throw the termite on its back off.

Fresh blood splattered, dripping right onto Pakura's cheek.

Pakura licked the blood off her cheek, her eyes gleaming with fierce fighting spirit. To be honest, the leader of Takigakure was too young.

Her blood had barely begun to boil when the battle was already over; the leader of Takigakure, Shibuki, was truly too weak.

Pakura stared intently at the Seven-Tails rampaging through the sky with excitement, her warlike and bloodthirsty body growing increasingly heated.

"Isn't this a flaw?"

"Hmm?" Upon hearing Pakura's voice, Bai subconsciously turned his head and saw Pakura sticking out his tongue to lick blood.

The giant beetle was injured? Was it because of Kimimaro's attack?

As the thought flashed by, Bai only saw a flash of Kakkō before her eyes, and Pakura's figure had already strode out, her hands loosely clenched into fists.

The scorching chakra frantically gathered in the center of his fist.

Flames erupted at a visible speed, then transformed into a giant flaming spear, accompanying Pakura's all-out sprint.

The next move was to raise the flaming spear high and use the momentum of the charge to throw it!

"Kimimaro is still up there!" Upon seeing this, Haku's expression changed drastically. Pakura's Scorch Release was different from her Ice Release.

The Ice Release technique seals the enemy, but if the seal is broken immediately, it doesn't cause much damage.

The characteristics of Scorch Release are completely different. Even the most ordinary scratch can perfectly bring out the fire attribute. A mere scratch is the most severe burn.

Kimimaro was entangled with the Seven-Tails on its back. If Pakura were to strike with her spear, wouldn't Kimimaro be in danger?

The thought One Flash through Bai's mind, and he immediately took off after them.

Strands of clear, Pure White cold air swirled around her hands. The Seven-Tails Jinchuriki couldn't die, and more importantly, Kimimaro couldn't die either.

No, Kimimaro can't even be injured, at least not by Pakura!

"Scorch Release: Blazing Flame Spear!"

"Ice Release: Ice Rock Hall Without End."

The two attacked almost simultaneously, one with fire and the other with ice. Red and white light intertwined in an instant, resembling two giant dragons, one red and one white, tumbling in the air.

The climate changed abruptly, the cold air condensed and was instantly evaporated by the scorching heat wave, turning into wisps of white mist that drifted upwards.

In an instant, the winds rose and the clouds surged, like endless white waves rolling and surging.

Click click click...

Using the moisture in the air and the already Frozen Snow Domain terrain, Bai applied the Jutsu Formula directly to Kimimaro's body.

A thick layer of ice crystals rapidly condensed, and Kimimaro's eyes narrowed as his bone sword was completely frozen by the white ice.

Along with the frozen wound, a large gash on the Seven-Tails' back also stopped bleeding, and the injury was completely stabilized!

Kimimaro looked puzzled. Familiar chakra emanated from the ice release technique, and he knew it was definitely Haku's ice release formula.

However, instead of helping him, Haku's Ice Release stopped the bleeding from the Seven-Tails.

Before Kimimaro could think for long, a sudden, scorching wave of heat swept in from below, and a thin layer of water droplets spilled from the ice crystals beneath him.

"Fire Release? No, Fire Release isn't that powerful. It's Pakura's Scorch Release!" Kimimaro immediately realized why Haku's Ice Release had sealed the Seven-Tails' wound.

She didn't intend to seal the Seven-Tails' wound, but rather to create an ice wall to block Pakura's Scorch Release, buying herself time to escape!

Having figured out the key point, Kimimaro immediately released his hands, then leaped high onto the Seven-Tails' body to create distance.

Huff!

The flaming spear, burning with raging flames and accompanied by a whistling sound, tore through the hazy white mist in the air and shot straight toward the trajectory of the Seven-Tails Fox.

The temperature continued to rise, Seven-Tails Chōmei the strange noise coming from below.

Normally, it might have been able to dodge this powerful shot by twisting its body, but in the icy world, it severely limited the Seven-Tails' speed and mobility.

Puff!

The flaming spear pierced through the Seven-Tails' chest and abdomen without any doubt, and the flames instantly engulfed its huge body!

Scorch Release: Steam Evaporation Kill Ninjutsu that evaporates all the moisture from an opponent's body in a single strike. It is extremely cruel, and the dead are turned into something resembling mummies.

Pakura can use chakra shaping, or chakra transformation, to manifest chakra in various forms such as small fireballs, large fireballs, even flame guns and flame pillars.

Regardless of the Jutsu Formula, Pakura's Scorch Release always carries the characteristic of being vaporized and killed.

The flaming spear pierced the Seven-Tails' abdomen. If the Seven-Tails were only in its chakra form, it would be severely injured by a direct hit from the Scorch Release, but it wouldn't die.

At this moment, it wasn't just the Seven-Tails that was being attacked by the Flame Spear, but also Fu's body.

Her injuries worsened in an instant. Despite being protected by the Seven-Tails' chakra, Fu's body was severely dehydrated in a flash.

The searing pain gradually awakened Fu, who had been dormant deep within her heart. Her consciousness was awakening, while the power of the Seven-Tails was gradually waning.

It wasn't just because of Fu's awakening that she weakened; more importantly, the Seven-Tails used all its power to heal Fu's injuries.

The Tailed Beast sealed inside the Jinchūriki are inextricably linked to the Jinchūriki's life.

In other words, when Jinchūriki dies, the Tailed Beast within him also dies, but the Tailed Beast will gradually revive over time.

This... has been a long time.

Tailed Beast do not choose death easily. No matter how they get along with their Jinchūriki, they will not stand by and watch their Jinchūriki die.

Swish!

Kimimaro and Haku appeared one after the other beside Pakura, and all three of them were now focused on the Seven-Tails in the air.

The Seven-Tails in its complete form gradually receded, revealing a blood-red Chakra Cloak.

Fu's Original Body gradually revealed itself, and the terrifying aura that had been suppressing the entire Takigakure faded considerably, with cold, hot, and evil chakra intertwining in the air.

"You went too far." Bai frowned slightly, a hint of pity flashing in her eyes.

Haku was very clear about the power of Pakura's Scorch Release, because during the years he lived in the Land of Snow, she was the only one who could spar with Pakura.

Kimimaro glanced at Pakura expressionlessly, a hint of wariness flashing in his eyes. If it weren't for Haku's intervention that delayed the Flame Spear's attack...

He probably can no longer stand here at this point.

The Seven-Tails Jinchuriki was protected by the Seven-Tails Chōmei -force chakra output, while Kimimaro didn't know if he could survive after being hit head-on by the Scorch Release attack.

"The opponent could be the Seven-Tails, one of the Nine Tailed Beasts. As an enemy, you have to go all out from the start." Pakura scoffed dismissively, not at all bothered that he had gone too far.

The perceptive Shiro clearly noticed Kimimaro's cold gaze. She opened her mouth, unsure how to explain to Pakura.

In the end, Bai swallowed the words he was about to say and only sighed inwardly.

Hopefully, Sister Pakura won't cross Tōka's bottom line...

Bai understands Tōka better than anyone around Tōka. She knows what kind of person Tōka is; she knew it the moment she saw Tōka's eyes.

If Kimimaro hadn't dodged that...

In the icy world, having lost Pakura's chakra, the scorching flames gradually faded away, and the three remained silent, each harboring their own thoughts.

Fu's body traced a tragic arc through the air before crashing heavily into a pile of collapsed houses.

Silence reigned, with only the soft rustling of falling snowflakes.

Soon, the earth was covered with a layer of cold silver frost, and the frost and snow froze into a layer of crystal-clear ice crystals that shimmered with a cold light.

A loud, muffled sound suddenly rang out, startling the three people who were lost in thought.

Looking in the direction of the sound, a dark, shadowy hand emerged from the ruins and then pushed aside the tattered wooden planks covering it.

Fu sprang up with a swift movement and sat up abruptly.

What's wrong with me?

Fu's eyes were empty and lifeless as she stared blankly at her hands. Her body ached terribly; every inch of her skin felt like it was burning.

Chakra within the body...

Why can't I sense that guy's presence?

Fu pressed her stomach in shock. She couldn't feel the Seven-Tails anymore; this was the first time she'd encountered such a situation in over a decade!

It hurts...

Her body ached all over; countless pains stimulated Fu's nerves. Her mind was in chaos, fragmented thoughts One Flash through her mind.

She couldn't clearly recall the series of events; she needed some time to recover.

It will only take ten minutes, no, just one minute...

"She looks very weak. Let's finish the last step quickly and leave!" Pakura said listlessly.

After defeating Fu's true Original Body in a single move, Pakura's interest in the Seven-Tails diminished considerably.

It would have been much more enjoyable to fight that leader of Takigakure earlier!

Neither Haku nor Kimimaro moved, because Pakura had already taken the lead and walked towards Fu with unhurried steps.

Rustling...

Pakura's feet sank into the frost and snow, making a crisp sound.

In this desolate and silent world of ice and snow, even the slightest sound is enough to draw everyone's attention.

Fu turned her head immediately and saw Pakura walking towards her.

Only...

Suddenly, Fu's pupils contracted sharply as she noticed a familiar yet unfamiliar figure lying quietly at the far end of her line of sight!

"Wood?!"

Fu's pupils reflected the charred corpse not far away, her constricted pupils revealing a deep unwillingness to believe it.

But... familiar fragments of clothing, a familiar figure, a familiar scent.

Everything was telling Fu that the charred corpse lying there was the first person to become her friend, Shibuki, the youngest leader of Takigakure.

"What did you do to Shibuki?" Fu dragged her broken body to her feet, swaying precariously as if she would collapse at any moment.

Although the Seven-Tails Chōmei, did its utmost to save Fu's life, it also exhausted all of its chakra.

At this moment, Fu was in an extremely weak state. Let alone a strong person like Pakura, even an ordinary Chunin could kill her!

Pakura approached expressionlessly, One Flash look of doubt in his eyes.

Shibuki? Who's that?

Oh... it's that guy!

The few words flashed through Pakura's mind quickly, and he quickened his pace, continuing to approach Fu.

"You killed him?" Fu bit her lower lip tightly, almost squeezing out the words through clenched teeth.

The one thing she least wanted to believe!

"What? You still want to avenge him?" Pakura laughed dismissively, stopping five steps away with his arms crossed.

It's as if it's saying, "I killed that person, and you want revenge? I'm here waiting for you!"

"You killed him..." Fu stared blankly at Shibuki's corpse in the distance, a wave of grief and pain washing over her.

It was like a sharp blade piercing her heart, completely overshadowing the burning pain in her body.

First it was Teacher Takenaka, then it was Shibuki- kun...

You guys, really...

Damn it.

Damn it!

Damn it!!

Fu mechanically moved her arm, reaching into the innermost layer of her clothes, as if she still had a final trump card.

"Sister Pakura, be careful!" Bai had obviously noticed Fu's unusual state and immediately shouted a reminder.

Pakura crossed his arms dismissively, tilting his head slightly as his gaze fell on Fu.

She showed no intention of making a move; instead, her eyes gleamed with anticipation. She was eager to know what trump cards the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki under these circumstances!

Is it enough to turn the tide?

Fu slowly pulled her hand out of her bosom; it was palm-shaped when she went in and fist-shaped when she came out.

It seems her last trump card is the bottle in her hand.

Glug...

With a flick of her finger, Fu opened the bottle cap, then brought it to her lips and gulped it down. Her throat bobbed as she swallowed all the unknown liquid inside.

Boom!

A powerful burst of chakra erupted, transforming into a violent Vortex Storm that swept in all directions centered on Fu's body.

Snowflakes filled the sky as Fu's body churned wildly.

"Wow... such powerful chakra!" Pakura, standing five steps away, stared in shock at the scene before her. It was ten times more terrifying than the power that guy had unleashed just now.

No, a hundred times!

This guy...

Is this the Takigakure Secret Technique?

Without time to think, sensing a sharp force coming straight at him, Pakura Body Flicker Technique retreated, merging with Bai and Kimimaro.

Pakura stared blankly at Fu, whose chakra was steadily rising not far away, a barely perceptible hint of seriousness flashing in her eyes.

"The chakra that erupted has formed a tangible storm," Kimimaro said coldly, the flow of chakra visible to his eyes.

"What is this?" Bai was also stunned.

The crimson chakra was gradually returning to normal. All three of them knew very well that only Tailed Beast possessed crimson chakra!

How could it recover in such a short time...?

Wasn't she looking like she was about to die just now?

What exactly was that thing we drank?

Countless questions kept flashing through the three of their minds...
