However, the Four-Tails' jinchūriki was rather hotheaded. After being struck by Shin Uchiha's immense mental power, he only froze for a moment before growing even more furious. Brutal rage completely engulfed his eyes, and a Tailed Beast Chakra Cloak gradually covered his body.
Shin Uchiha had not expected this fellow to act as though he had no brains at all. Even knowing that his opponent was far beyond his ability to contend with, he still did whatever he pleased.
Seeing this, Shin Uchiha frowned slightly and reached out to stop Uchiha Shi, who was about to charge forward beside him. He said:
"Leave the little Four-Tails fellow to me. You could subdue him too, but it would take quite a while."
At the clan leader's words, Uchiha Shi paused briefly, then stopped advancing.
Shin Uchiha nodded slightly at that, then flew toward the Four-Tails' jinchūriki as though gravity no longer affected him.
Meanwhile, bolstered by tailed beast chakra, Roshi grew even more frenzied. Not only were his movements faster, but the power of his Lava Release had also increased by at least twenty percent.
Yet when a ball of magma came hurtling toward him, Shin Uchiha merely extended both hands and gave it a gentle nudge, brushing the intimidating-looking projectile aside as he drew another step closer.
Although Roshi was extremely hotheaded, he was no fool. Seeing what Shin Uchiha had done, he immediately realized that this man was someone he could never afford to provoke. He let out a loud roar, and the tailed beast chakra around him grew even more violent. Even the tails on his Chakra Cloak had increased to three.
At this sight, Shin Uchiha shook his head in amusement.
Now you're scared?
Too late!!
Shin Uchiha's expression darkened slightly, and purplish-black flames seemed to rise
