Take Another Bite of a Tailed Beast to Calm My Nerves

As a transmigrator, Sora understood this world extremely well.

He knew exactly what truly mattered in this world.

What one had to rely on to grow stronger.

What one had to do and which path one had to take to reach the true pinnacle.

Back in Rock Town Village, Sora had once told Samui—

Everything in this world was unimportant. Physiques, ninjutsu, experience—they were all merely added value.

Only chakra mattered!

A ninja's battle was a battle of chakra.

The essence of power lay in the strength of one's chakra.

Chakra was everything in this world!

Thousands of years ago, people from beyond the heavens descended upon this world and brought chakra with them. From that moment onward, chakra became the foundation by which everything was judged.

As long as your chakra was strong enough, you could possess an indestructible monster's body!

As long as your chakra was fierce enough, you could unleash forbidden jutsu as devastating as natural disasters!

Once your chakra reached a certain level, you could even manipulate souls, live forever, dissect space, reverse time, and accomplish anything you wished to accomplish.

Even...

Become a god!

But unfortunately, not everyone could withstand that much chakra.

It was like a paper cup. At most, it could hold a single cup of water, yet you wanted to use it to contain an entire river and sea. That was simply unrealistic.

But Sora was no ordinary person.

The extraordinary talent of the Six Paths Bloodline, combined with Sett's template, allowed Sora to do this without holding back or worrying about anything!

Thus, ever since he began training, Sora had continuously used chakra to temper his body.

From childhood onward, he had used Lightning Release chakra to activate his muscles and physique.

Then later, he absorbed the power of stars.

And now, he had set his sights on the origin of chakra in this world.

—The tailed beasts!

"Seal!"

However, Sora did not immediately open the Amber Purifying Pot. Instead, he set up a sealing barrier around the area.

The commotion caused by a tailed beast was immense. Even if Sora could suppress it, the aura emitted by that chakra alone would be enough to fill everyone nearby with fear and trigger chaos.

Once the barrier had been sealed off, Sora looked at the pickle jar before him and lifted its sealed lid.

"Release!"

With Sora's low shout—

An exceedingly evil and violent chakra emerged from the Amber Purifying Pot, condensing before him into the phantom of what looked like a burning white horse.

The Amber Purifying Pot's seal had directly taken the life of Han, who had already been severely injured. As a result, Kokuo, the Five-Tails, was now sealed within the Amber Purifying Pot purely in its tailed beast form.

Enemies meeting face-to-face were especially hostile.

The instant Kokuo saw Sora, it arched its entire body like a cat with its fur standing on end, its face full of hostility. It even wanted to fire a Tailed Beast Bomb straight at his face and blast this damned bastard into the sky.

But unfortunately—

With the Amber Purifying Pot's seal in place, Kokuo, which could only reveal a phantom, simply could not gather enough chakra to unleash an attack as high-intensity as a Tailed Beast Bomb.

Damn it! If I can't use a Tailed Beast Bomb, I'll bite you to death and smash you apart with my horn!

The roaring phantom of Kokuo let out a low growl, its hooves pounding as it charged fiercely toward Sora.

"Good!"

Before he could even make a move, Kokuo had delivered itself right to him.

Laughing, Sora grabbed Kokuo's horn with one hand and seized its raised foreleg with the other.

His terrifying strength completely stopped Kokuo's charge.

Kokuo growled, continuously drawing chakra through the tiny opening in the Amber Purifying Pot's seal, trying to overwhelm this guy with sheer force.

But in the next instant, the tone of its growl changed dramatically.

Its cry carried both shock and a hint of terror!

It was not that either side's strength had overwhelmed the other's.

Rather, as they wrestled against each other, this guy actually opened his mouth in the wildest possible manner and sank his teeth into the body formed from pure chakra.

Tear!

Chew!

Swallow it into his belly.

"This tastes pretty good, Five-Tails!"

Sora burst into laughter. Under Kokuo's horrified, stunned gaze, he grabbed its body and began feasting, swallowing it alive and tearing into its flesh.

Like a predator that had finished hunting and was enjoying its spoils, he devoured Kokuo's meat in huge mouthfuls.

It was as though the creature before him was not a calamitous beast feared by the world, but a table full of delicious dishes.

"You bastard!"

"You damned scoundrel, let me go!"

"Yotsuki Sora!!"

The Amber Purifying Pot had become an unshakable shackle and prison for Kokuo. At this moment, to Sora, it was meat on a chopping board—unable to do anything but be greedily consumed by him.

It was not until he had eaten ravenously for more than ten minutes, his belly swollen high and his whole body practically drunk on chakra, that Sora finally spared Kokuo.

Before Sora could even form hand seals and replace the Amber Purifying Pot's sealing lid, Kokuo had already shrunk back into the pot as if fleeing for its life.

Seeing this, Sora laughed heartily. After sealing the lid once more, he sat cross-legged off to the side in complete satisfaction.

"It really has to be a tailed beast."

The ancestors truly hadn't deceived him. Tailed beast meat really did taste different.

He could clearly feel a dense mass of chakra within his body. As he digested it, that chakra gradually fused into his flesh and meridians.

This chakra was incredibly potent. He had only eaten one meal, yet its intensity was already comparable to the star he had consumed before!

A moment later, Sora loosely clenched his palm, and a faint reddish chakra cloak appeared around his hand.

However, this chakra cloak looked exceedingly plain, like a gauzy garment. It could only strengthen his body to a certain extent.

Compared to the partial tailed beast transformation Han had activated earlier, it was still far inferior.

But that was no problem.

Back then, his two ancestors had stayed inside Nine-Tails's body for a full two weeks.

Five-Tails might not have been as powerful as Nine-Tails, and its chakra might not have been as formidable either.

But Five-Tails was already Sora's possession!

"I'll eat you for two months first and see how it goes."

While digesting the chakra within him, Sora contentedly patted the Amber Purifying Pot.

Inside the seal, Five-Tails seemed to sense something. It curled up its body in terror.

That bastard was actually swallowing its flesh alive! Eating its chakra raw!

Such a thing was simply unheard of.

Since the day Five-Tails had been born, it had never encountered anything like this.

To humans, tailed beasts were monsters, nightmares, calamitous beasts.

Ordinary people would flee the instant they saw them.

Even greedy humans who coveted their power would at most control or seal them away, like those two overwhelmingly powerful descendants of the Sage of Six Paths from decades ago.

Never had anyone acted like Sora was acting now.

It had originally thought that being sealed inside a vessel and condemned to a life without daylight was already the most miserable outcome of losing this battle.

Now it fucking had to experience what it felt like to be turned into sashimi.

Fuck me...
