Are You Fucking Kidding Me?

With a furious roar, a giant hand rose from the collapsing earth, followed by half of the golem's body.

"Don't be nervous, Matatabi," Uchiha Shingen reassured him.

Climb if you want, is this rock climbing?

Sure enough, as if in a final burst of energy, the struggle of the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path led to an even larger collapse. Half of its body slipped back into place, leaving only its head. Soon, even the head disappeared, leaving only a hand scratching and clawing.

Wherever you touch it, it collapses.

Uchiha Shingen now believes that the Ten-Tails is no longer a transmigrator, and that its dancing skills are probably self-taught.

Otherwise, who would be so stupid?

"They're nothing but wild beasts..." Uchiha Shingen sighed.

[Don't be careless, Shingen! Take advantage of its inability to escape for a moment and run away quickly!]

"Screw running, we're going to get something out of it today."

[No way! All you want is Chakra, right? I can always try to persuade the other Tailed Beasts. Let's keep stalling. If they catch us, I won't have enough Chakra for them.]

"You're such a coward! I know what this thing is, but it has the intelligence of all nine of you! You're the great Lord Matatabi, don't be a coward, okay?"

Just as the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path reached out, Uchiha Shingen noticed that the wound on its hand seemed to have deepened a bit, probably from when it was carrying the Tailed Beast Ball.

He suddenly had an idea.

"Matatabi, I've got an idea. I still need to recover some of my Chakra, so don't let it run out on me."

How do you know about my relationship with it? What do you want?

"We'll talk about this when we get back. I want to try out my new Dōjutsu. Prepare the Tailed Beast Ball for me. This time, give me a big one. Hit the last hand it stretched out."

[Okay, you have to come see me when you get back.]

"Okay, okay, I promise I'll come find you as soon as I get back. Hurry up, I reckon it'll be out soon."

The Matatabi, continuously channeling massive amounts of Chakra into the Tailed Beast Cloak.

Below, the mountain debris, which had stopped collapsing, began to tremble again.

The golem's roar was coming from within.

Finally, one of its arms burst out of the ground.

Not this hand, next one!

Responding to the call in Uchiha Shingen's heart, another arm shot out, and the two large hands each grabbed a piece of ground. With a roar, the golem pushed against the countless boulders that were pressing down on it and stretched out its head.

The familiar Chakra made it struggle to raise its head, looking down at "Matatabi" which let out an excited roar.

But what awaited it was a perfectly round and full Tailed Beast Ball, which used ten times the amount of Chakra as before.

This time, the Tailed Beast Ball hit its arm, which was still pawing at the ground.

Amidst a thunderous explosion, a powerful burst of light shone forth once more!

Chapter Thirty-Eight Are you fucking kidding me?

Outside the valley, people with their own thoughts watched the intense light rise again and again from within, completely speechless.

The battle between these two behemoths has completely destroyed the canyon.

Mountains became valleys, valleys became plains, and plains became natural barriers. Stones even rained down from the sky, a climate that was originally only found in the Land of Earth.

The spies there tried every means to uncover the details of the battle, but all of them never returned.

The survivors could only watch from afar as two enormous monsters fought, as if their stamina were inexhaustible.

"What a monster..." someone said bitterly.

Everyone can see the development of Leaf Village in recent years; it's no longer just a lone star.

That's called leaving everyone else in the dust.

The five great ninja villages have fought each other without breaking apart for many reasons, one of the most important being...

Everyone believes that fortunes change.

How strong was Senju Hashirama? How terrifying was Uchiha Madara?

Even though Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama turned against each other, the world remained at peace.

What we fear is neither Wood Release nor the Mangekyō Sharingan. No Ninjutsu in this world is invincible, and even the most powerful Ninjutsu cannot stop the need for war during the Kunimura era.

What they feared were Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara; even if only one of them were alive, they would still be willing to continue farming.

However, just a few decades later, a similar figure reappeared in Hidden Leaf Village.

Uchiha Shingen may not be as good as his ancestor Uchiha Madara, but such a comparison is meaningless. With Hidden Leaf Village having such a ninja again, the current generation of ninjas can forget about having any hope.

As for Nagato, who fought to a standstill with Uchiha Shingen, people could accept that.

Because that's Amegakure).

Each of the five great ninja villages only has eyes for the other four. Unless they are enemies, the title of "strongest second-tier village" is meaningless.

Of course, this was just the spies' opinion; they had no say in what their superiors thought.

When people are bored and have nothing better to do, they tend to cause trouble. So, since the various factions had already met, they started to clash, until the Amegakure forces also began to appear.

Leading the team was Konan, who was extremely anxious.

Nagato had not returned for a long time, and she hadn't seen him since it got dark, which made her really worried. So she simply led a hundred elite soldiers from Amegakure out of the village to search for him. With spies from all sides gathered, she easily found this place.

Along the way, she recognized that this was the route to the place where Yahiko had died.

As she got closer, she began to doubt whether she was seeing things.

Once she was actually in the "audience seats," she abandoned her doubts.

Because she could also see those two enormous figures in the distance.

"Tailed Beasts... Outer Path..." Konan dared not approach.

She had considered that Amegakure could use the upcoming events to obtain a Tailed Beasts, but the target was not the Two-Tails, but the One-Tail.

In Konan's opinion, if they chose to side with Leaf Village, they could even use Jiraiya's connections to do so.

Takigakure has already demonstrated the existence of small ninja villages with Tailed Beasts.

The beginning is always the hardest. As long as we can get off to a good start, we can fully utilize the Amegakure platform to implement our plans. Acting as the leader of Amegakure has a completely different effect than acting as the leader of Akatsuki. The former will be seen as part of the rules within the group.

Having silenced the Rain Ninja who were itching to cause trouble due to the large number of outsiders in the area, Konan began to wait silently.

Because she believed that Nagato would not be defeated.

"I will not be defeated..." Nagato looked at the two monsters in the distance and encouraged himself by talking to himself.

After being lashed away by Uchiha Shingen's One-Tail Tailed Beast Cloak, he actually left the battle.

Uchiha Shingen showed obvious interest in the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path and completely ignored it.

[Uchiha Shingen... did he know the true power of the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path?]

Nagato began to ponder this question.

Joining the battle wasn't out of the question, but this incident made Nagato realize something was amiss.

The Uchiha Clan is an ancient ninja clan that knows many secrets. So, is the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path truly as it claims to be?

Moreover, judging from the rampage of the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path this time, he may not be able to completely control this thing that can be summoned using the Rinnegan.

I... am not strong enough...

Nagato reflected on the entire battle, he had to admit that although he was now able to use the Rinnegan's abilities more skillfully than before, it still wasn't enough.

He's more than capable of dealing with ordinary people, but he couldn't defeat Uchiha Shingen. If the two were to fight to the death, it's really hard to say who would survive.

Uchiha Shingen, on the other hand, really mastered the power of the Two-Tails...

Boom--!!!

Amidst a thunderous explosion, another burst of intense light erupted, obliterating everything in its Demonic Statue of the Outer Path.

As the shockwave spread, a rain of blue meteors fell from the sky, as if they had eyes, all of them bombarding the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path.

A large cat appeared amidst lightning, knocking over the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path with its head, leaping on top and furiously scratching it, before jumping away again when the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path attempted to retaliate.

Nagato watched this scene up close, still unable to understand what Uchiha Shingen was trying to do. With the help of the Two-Tails Matatabi's Chakra, Uchiha Shingen had been fighting the demon statue for a long time, during which he also used various Ninjutsu in his Tailed Beast Transformation form.

The golem wasn't completely undamaged, but to be precise, not even a single piece of its skin was missing.

However, to be fair, after fighting for such a long time, the golem's reaction speed has indeed slowed down.

It was already in a daze, and after a long period of rampage, it began to become sluggish.

Although not a single piece of skin was torn off, many parts of the skin were cracked, the most serious being the sword wound on the arm.

If the demon statue is in such a state, then Uchiha Shingen must be in no better shape.

Nagato was right.

Uchiha Shingen is in pain all over his body right now.

Susanoo or Tailed Beast Transformation, these Ninjutsu, which require constantly releasing Chakra from all the body's pressure points, place a considerable burden on the body. This burden can be reduced, but it will still exist.

Moreover, this is Matatabi's Chakra, the Chakra of Tailed Beasts. Prolonged use will also harm the human body, and even Jinchūriki cannot avoid it.

For this reason, Uchiha Shingen has used Medical Ninjutsu on himself several times.

But mental fatigue is more severe than physical fatigue.

Fortunately, his efforts paid off; the golem's agility had decreased significantly.

Before regaining the Chakra of the Nine Tailed Beasts, the power of this mutilated body is limited, not Infinite.

[Finally, we can get started...]

Uchiha Shingen felt that the time was about right.

He hadn't forgotten about Nagato.

"Your Matatabi is complete, you can take it now."

[Huh? Really? I'll really take it, okay? You won't get beaten to death, will you?]

"There are people who can kill me, but we'll have to wait a few more years," Uchiha Shingen said irritably. "But you, Tailed Beasts, don't you have enough Chakra?"

[Don't you even consider how many breaths you've forced me to exhale? So what if I'm Tailed Beasts? Don't Tailed Beasts need rest? It's not like my Chakra is truly inexhaustible.]

Matatabi was quite unconvinced, but his tone still carried a hint of concern.

[Don't force yourself, just run away if you can't handle it, I really will take it, okay?]

"Keep taking them, just keep taking them."

If you don't accept it soon, I'll have to use Medical Ninjutsu again, which will waste my Chakra.

Seeing Uchiha Shingen's clear stance, Matatabi began to sever the Chakra connection.

Without its continuous supply, Uchiha Shingen's Complete Tailed Beast Transformation began to dissipate.

The fiery Chakra began to dim.

The Demonic Statue of the Outer Path seemed to realize something. Having just been defeated again, it struggled to get back up, its agility somewhat restored.

However, its movement was still not Matatabi the Chakra dissipated.

Just as it got back up, the Two-Tails 'Chakra had completely vanished in front of it.

Uchiha Shingen landed lightly on the ground.

Awooooo!!!

The Demonic Statue of the Outer Path roared angrily, but the roar gradually subsided.

To be honest, Uchiha Shingen sensed a low mood from its voice.

There was still a hint of grievance in her voice.

Uchiha Shingen felt that it was indeed a bit pitiful.

After all, Jill was growing perfectly well in the field when someone picked her and ate her. She tried to take her back but couldn't fight back, and in the end, she was locked in a dark room.

The worst part is that their IQ was also lowered.
