Terumi Mei's Shock
Following behind Terumi Mei was Hozuki Mangetsu, who, watching the frantically fleeing Six-Tails whimpering intermittently, exclaimed in shock, "Is this still a ferocious Tailed Beast? It's acting like a dog. Is it begging us to save it?"
Ringo Ameyuri was still holding her two Thunder Swords, but seeing that the Six-Tails had become a stray dog, whimpering there, she immediately sheathed her Ninja Blade, turned her head to the side, and pretended, "I don't know the Six-Tails, he's not from our village."
Then Ringo Ameyuri said with a serious expression, "I hate Tailed Beasts. I will not save him, even if he is the handsome Utakata. I still hate Tailed Beasts."
Then Ringo Ameyuri looked at Terumi Mei, putting pressure on her, since she was the captain leading the frontline troops.
Hozuki Mangetsu watched as the Six-Tails fled, its back now covered in dense thorns from a misstep, transforming it from Tailed Beast into a hedgehog.
Hozuki Mangetsu said with a shocked expression, "Is that the Fifth Hokage on the Wood Human's head? He can actually use Wood Release Ninjutsu. That's Hashirama Senju's Ninjutsu. I heard that the Uchiha Clan and the Senju Clan don't get along, right? How can they be locked together and produce such a monster? It's a tragedy for the Shinobi World."
Terumi Mei's eyes were also bloodshot as she stared intently at the Qingcheng above the Wood Human's head. She watched as the ground trembled with every step the Wood Human took, and how such a large Wood Human moved with such agility, almost as fast as the Six-Tails.
Terumi Mei exclaimed in shock, "Just how much Chakra does he have? Is he even human? To control such a massive wooden doll while simultaneously unleashing Wood Release Ninjutsu, he's a monster! Isn't it rumored throughout the Shinobi World that the Fifth Hokage is a shaman?"
Upon hearing Terumi Mei's words, Hozuki Mangetsu exclaimed in shock, "It must be a rumor. We shouldn't have started the war with Konoha. If the Fifth Hokage knew such a Wood Release Ninjutsu, I'm afraid even our Hidden Mist Village wouldn't be able to withstand it!"
Just then, Ao also ran over and joined Terumi Mei and her group. Looking at the Six-Tails in the center of the battlefield, it was running around like a wild dog, too afraid to fight back, just whimpering.
Aoya exclaimed in shock, "The Fourth Mizukage ordered us to attack Konoha and even told us to bring our Jinchuriki with us! Now all the Jinchuriki in Hidden Mist Village have turned into huskies. How are we supposed to fight Konoha?"
Then Ao looked at Terumi Mei, wanting to hear Terumi Mei opinion, and asked, "Captain Terumi Mei, can you deal with this Evil Uchiha?"
Mei Terumi was equally decisive, shaking her head and saying seriously, "I don't want to boost others' morale while diminishing my own, but to be honest, I have absolutely no confidence in defeating him. Even with the Jinchuriki and the full moon, I truly lack the ability to overcome him."
Ringo Ameyuri looked at the Six-Tails, who seemed to have noticed her, and immediately turned and ran towards them, saying in shock, "Oh no! The Six-Tails has spotted us and is running this way! We're about to be exposed!"
Hozuki Mangetsu was shocked upon hearing Ringo Ameyuri's words and exclaimed, "What! The Six-Tails is heading straight this way! If that's the case, then we'll become the target of that giant Wood Human! How can this continue? We, the ninjas of Hidden Mist Village, absolutely cannot die here!"
Ao, being an elite individual, quickly used his Byakugan to check the Fifth Hokage's condition. What he saw nearly made him wet himself in shock. He exclaimed in astonishment, "The Fifth Hokage's body stores a vast amount of Chakra! Like Princess Tsunade, he's mastered a Chakra -storing Ninjutsu called the Chakra Storage Seal!"
Terumi Mei was also extremely shocked, her eyes widening in disbelief. She said, "So, this battle between Uchiha Qingcheng and the Six-Tails was just for fun?"
Ringo Ameyuri, being a straightforward and outspoken young woman, immediately sheathed her Ninja Blade in the Sealing Scroll upon hearing these words, ready to escape.
Ringo Ameyuri exclaimed in shock, "The Fifth Hokage isn't just playing around; he's playing with the Tailed Beasts! We'd better run! If the Six-Tails gets to us, we won't be able to escape!"
Some Elite Jonin from Hidden Mist Village, upon hearing Ringo Ameyuri's words, also agreed and said, "Captain Terumi Mei, let's hurry up and leave! The Tailed Beasts will be here soon, and you don't want to be riddled with arrows by that giant Wood Human, do you?"
Terumi Mei looked at her subordinates, who were all terrified by the giant Wood Human and had no desire to fight Konoha. She said helplessly, "Even if we're planning to run away, shouldn't we at least take the Jinchuriki? Even though Utakata is a bit of a loner, that's still village property."
Upon hearing Ringo Ameyuri immediately said, "Captain Terumi Mei, we support you! Go save the Six-Tails quickly, or he'll be riddled with holes!"
Terumi Mei, her face also serious, said earnestly, "Aren't you all coming with me? We're from the same village."
The group of Kirigakure Ninjas remained unmoved by Terumi Mei's words, their expressions cold and indifferent.
Some of the Mist Ninja spoke up directly, saying, "When we were in the Ninja Academy, we had to kill all our classmates to graduate! To become a ninja, not killing Jinchuriki is already the greatest kindness we can show."
Obito controlled the Yagura and launched the Bloody Mist, turning all the Mist Ninja into enemies or superiors and subordinates. They secretly harbored deep hatred for each other, and had no concept of comrades, fellow villagers, or friends whatsoever.
Therefore, in the minds of these Kirigakure ninja, if the Six-Tails Jinchuriki is defeated, then the Six-Tails is inferior in skill and is considered trash. As trash, it doesn't deserve to live; only the elite survive.
Terumi Mei said with a serious expression, "Don't any of you want to help him? What a cold-blooded and cruel bunch."
Upon hearing Terumi Mei's words, Ao said with a serious expression, "Terumi Mei, we should stop the Fourth Hokage's Bloody Mist, otherwise our Hidden Mist Village will be full of cold-blooded animals."
While the people of Misty Hidden Mist Village were still discussing whether or not to save Six-Tails, Six-Tails Saiken was already running out of steam. Its body was riddled with splinters, and one splinter had pierced right through Six-Tails 'Six-Tails tail, pinning it to the ground like a nail.
The Six-Tails, still shaking its head, looked at the Mist Ninja ahead and let out another pitiful whimper, calling for the Hidden Mist Village ninja to come and help.
Terumi Mei, hiding to the side, along with a group of Kirigakure Ninja, looked at the Six-Tails with clear, innocent eyes, like a college student just starting school, as it kept calling out to them.
