Nightmarish Voice

Shukaku inside Gaara's body had originally hung the chains onto the remnants of the Four Symbols Seal.

But as Hoichi continued strumming his biwa.

Gaara noticed something strange about the chains.

"These chains are constantly absorbing my Chakra!"

At that moment, the remnants of the Four Symbols Seal finally broke apart.

Fū crashed miserably to the ground, utterly drained
