Killer B, the Eight-Tails' jinchuriki, had completely transformed into a Tailed Beast, becoming a gigantic ox-headed octopus as massive as a mountain.

The Eight-Tails before them was indeed an exceedingly troublesome monster.
The ox-headed octopus lashed its eight tentacles about and lunged at Deidara and Sasori.
Deidara asked helplessly, "Brother Sasori, is there really no way left?"
