Fighting Arena.
Transformed into Nine-Tails Mode, Kushina Uzumaki frowned as she watched the explosion before her.
Under Nine-Tails Mode, Kushina's perception was enhanced to the maximum.
Especially her dynamic visual perception.
Kushina could perceive every movement around her; in Nine-Tails Mode, her sensory abilities could even rival the Mangekyō Sharingan.

Kushina materialized instantly behind Ato, slamming a fist toward his back.
