Facing Kisame's eager offer, Danzo said nothing more. He was more than happy to use this chance to slip away.
Without even saying a word of caution, he turned and left, his arm elongating into a twisting vine that wrapped around the Six-Tails Jinchuriki.
"Wait!" Kakashi shouted, trying to stop him, but his vision suddenly blurred as a shark-headed figure appeared before him.
"Don't look away when you're facing me!"
With a deafening crash, Kakashi was sent plunging into the depths of the lake, throwing up a massive spray.
Might Guy turned back, his expression becoming utterly grave.
Not long after the two battles began, Cloud Thunder Gorge in the Land of Lightning lay beneath towering mountain pillars that reached into the clouds, a vast gorge spreading across the earth.
White clouds and green waters stretched far and wide, carrying an ancient, ethereal air that washed over anyone who saw them.
This was a place where Kumogakure's experts cultivated in seclusion. It was not far from Kumogakure, and now it belonged to Killer B, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki.
Space rippled faintly, and an inverted vortex appeared. A masked figure emerged atop a high peak, silently gazing at the gorge before him.
"This is the place—the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki," Obito Uchiha said softly, his figure vanishing once more.

This Eight-Tails Jinchuriki seemed a little abnormal. Obito thought.
Clatter!
The sound of chains
