"Roar!"
As the Three-Tails let out an furious roar, an enormous ball of water was already hurtling toward Sixia at an unbelievable speed.
"30 Million Volts: Thunder Beast!"
Sixia swept his hand, and countless bolts of lightning instantly crackled and darted about, converging into a massive Thunder Beast.
"Bzzzz!"
Vast blue arcs of electricity flickered incessantly, radiating a terrifying aura.
Once the massive Thunder Beast appeared, it met the Three-Tails' Iron Cannonball head-on, charging straight into it.
"Boom!"
"Rumble!"
When the two colossal attacks, Water Release: Iron Cannonball and 30 Million Volts: Thunder Beast, slammed into each other, pillars of water shot into the sky.
But the Three-Tails' Iron Cannonball was nowhere near a match for 30 Million Volts: Thunder Beast.
"Bang!"
The enormous ball of water soon burst apart.
Then the massive Thunder Beast slammed into the Three-Tails.
The impact knocked even its immense body sideways.
The Three-Tails was truly enraged now, and held nothing back.
As it retreated, it curled into a huge ball and rolled toward Sixia to crush him.
Sixia saw this, but paid it no mind at all.
Genji and the others from Kirigakure were alarmed by Sixia's response.
Genji couldn't help speaking up. "That's the Three-Tails' Taijutsu, Shadow Fear. It combines offense and defense and is extremely powerful."
"What is that ninja doing? Hurry and warn him to dodge!"
Mei Terumi didn't dare delay after Genji spoke. From a distance, she immediately shouted at Sixia to get out of the way.
But it was too late. Faced with the Three-Tails going all out, Sixia not only refused to dodge, but grew positively excited.
"Lightning Release: Lariat!"
Sixia mobilized all the Lightning Release Chakra in his body, turning into a streak of blue lightning as he charged straight at the Three-Tails.
This Taijutsu move of the Three-Tails combined offense and defense, making it extremely powerful.
The lightning armor around Sixia's body was also the Strongest Shield.
Which was superior would soon be revealed!
"Boom!"
This collision was even more terrifying and more spectacular than the last.
In an instant, two figures, one huge and one small, crashed violently into each other.
A thunderous explosion suddenly rang out.
Terrifying force swept outward in every direction from the man and beast.
Towering waves surged forward, crashing against the shore.
The Three-Tails, still curled into a ball, was sent skidding backward along the lakeside by Sixia's impact.
Sixia had practically beaten the Three-Tails senseless. Which of them was the tailed beast, anyway?
Sixia was fighting exactly like a tailed beast, brutally and overwhelmingly thrashing it!
"Boom!"
Countless waves rose in the Three-Tails' wake as it was driven backward.
After steadying itself again, the Three-Tails didn't hesitate. It immediately unleashed a tailed beast's ultimate trump card-the Tailed Beast Bomb!
Genji and Kirigakure's senior officials grew incredibly tense at the sight.
"Get out of the way!"
"That's a tailed beast's strongest attack, the Tailed Beast Bomb!"
Feeling the terrifying power of the Three-Tails' Tailed Beast Bomb, Kisame couldn't help joking:
"That kid Uzumaki Shixia isn't going to take things too far and get killed by the Three-Tails, is he?"
Kakuzu said nothing. He was considering whether it would be better for Uzumaki Shixia to live or die.
When it came to completing missions and earning money, Kakuzu was willing to call Uzumaki Shixia the strongest!
But although he liked money, he also wanted to stay alive.
Uzumaki Shixia was a monster who could fight a tailed beast hand-to-hand. Kakuzu's frail Earth Grudge Fear body simply couldn't withstand the intensity of Uzumaki Shixia's mission schedule.
So the best outcome would be for Sixia to suffer serious injuries at the Three-Tails' hands!
That would reduce how often he took on missions without dampening his enthusiasm for them.
But Kakuzu was undoubtedly overthinking things.
Sixia gauged the Three-Tails' Tailed Beast Bomb, then still refrained from using his stronger techniques.
Killing the Three-Tails would do him no good.
"200 Million Volts: Thunder Dragon!"
Sixia figured he couldn't go any harder. If he killed the Three-Tails, his other two missions would fall through!
After being adapted for the Shinobi World, Thunder Dragon could actually be considered a form of Lightning Release Ninjutsu.
"Roar!"
An earthshaking dragon's roar rang out, and an enormous Thunder Dragon instantly took shape.
Amid countless flashes of electricity, the Thunder Dragon, combining the Thunder Beast's strength with the Thunderbird's speed, charged toward the Tailed Beast Bomb.
"Boom!"
"Rumble!"
This collision shook the heavens and the earth!
It was as though the sky itself was roaring.
"Rumble!"
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Sixia's 200 Million Volts: Thunder Dragon had already reached the Ten-Tails' level.
This Ninjutsu could be used to fight the Ten-Tails, let alone the Three-Tails.
The Three-Tails' Tailed Beast Bomb was like a candle trying to outshine the moon, swallowed outright by the Thunder Dragon.
Meanwhile, the imposing Thunder Dragon lost none of its momentum and slammed straight into the Three-Tails.
"Boom!"
This time, the massive Three-Tails was blasted clean off the ground and landed in the forest behind it.
The Three-Tails had lost!
More precisely, it had been utterly crushed!
"Roar!"
The Three-Tails let out a defiant roar.
But there was nothing it could do. The human facing it was even more like a tailed beast than it was.
It might as well give up being the Three-Tails and let him take over.
At that moment, something even more infuriating happened.
Since the Three-Tails had been blasted deep into the dense forest, there was no one nearby.
So Sixia flashed into a streak of lightning and appeared above the Three-Tails' head.
Sixia's cold voice reached its ears.
"Three-Tails, your power is too great!"
"I have to bind you with a contract!"
"Boom!"
As Sixia finished speaking, he gave the Three-Tails a lethal head pat.
"Smack!"
He slapped his palm onto the Three-Tails' head, forcibly spreading a Summoning Contract Formula over its entire body.
The Three-Tails tried to resist, but it was useless.
"Roar!"
After being forced into a Summoning Contract, the Three-Tails became even more furious and agitated!
Sixia, of course, didn't care.
"Lightning Release: Lightning Oppression Horizontal Chop!"
As Sixia finished speaking, he began delivering an unending barrage of slaps to the Three-Tails.
"Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!"
The Three-Tails, which had been roaring furiously just moments ago, indeed became docile after Sixia gave it a beating.
Now the Three-Tails lay in the forest, trembling.
Even when it had fought other tailed beasts in the past, it had never been beaten this badly.
After beating the Three-Tails into submission, Sixia pointed toward the great lake and spoke.
"Go back into the lake."
The Three-Tails couldn't wait to get away from Sixia, this humanoid tailed beast. It had been beaten into fear.
Against Sixia, it could neither win nor escape. It was utterly helpless.
Mei Terumi and the others rushing over from a distance arrived just in time to witness this terrifying scene.
The Three-Tails, Kirigakure's strongest weapon, seemed to have been beaten into submission by Uzumaki Shixia.
Now, with just a point of Sixia's hand, the Three-Tails obediently headed toward the great lake.
As the Three-Tails returned to the lake, Genji and Kirigakure's other senior officials felt as though none of this was real.
They had thought Kirigakure was about to suffer a Three-Tails rampage.
They had never expected that the Three-Tails would be beaten into submission before it could cause any chaos!
For a moment, the many Kirigakure ninja looked at Uzumaki Shixia with the utmost apprehension!
On the Blood Mist's side, Hozuki Mugetsu, Karatachi Takiichi, Kondo Takashi, and the others practically wanted to cough up blood!
They already knew Kondo Yano's plan, and it could certainly be called an excellent one.
But there was one problem: the Three-Tails had to rampage and wreak havoc.
The Three-Tails had barely begun its rampage before someone beat it until even its eyes looked considerably clearer.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Under the dumbfounded stares of countless Kirigakure ninja,
the Three-Tails trudged toward the nearby lake with heavy footsteps.
After entering the lake, it obediently returned to the bottom.
It had no choice. This time, it had been beaten into submission.
Uzumaki Shixia had outclassed it in every way, leaving it without the slightest temper.
Judging by how effortlessly Uzumaki Shixia had handled things, he didn't even seem to have gone all out against it.
The Three-Tails was absolutely right.
If Sixia had gotten serious, it would already be dead.
On Kirigakure's side, Genji and the other senior officials were all extremely excited.
Everyone had thought this Three-Tails rampage would inflict untold losses on the village.
Yet Uzumaki Shixia, whom Mei Terumi had hired, had actually halted the Three-Tails' advance.
He had even beaten this terrifying tailed beast into submission, making it sink back into the lake.
After approaching Mei Terumi, Genji and Kirigakure's other senior officials praised her.
"Mei Terumi, you've done a great service! You've saved the village from a disaster!"
Previously, everyone had thought Mei Terumi had most likely been duped.
Where in the Shinobi World today could anyone find a ninja comparable to the two great heroes of the Warring States Period, Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha?
But Sixia's recent battle against the Three-Tails made Kirigakure's senior officials feel that such a ninja might truly exist!
Hearing Genji's praise, Mei Terumi replied modestly.
"Lord Genji, I was only doing what I should."
She felt a deep sense of belonging to Kirigakure. Although the village had all sorts of problems, she loved it.
Genji nodded in great satisfaction, then continued.
"Could this ninja you hired join Kirigakure?"
Sixia was incredibly powerful.
If such a powerful ninja was willing to join and protect the village, Kirigakure could develop in peace.
This time, Mei Terumi shook her head. "I don't know, but..."
After hesitating briefly, she continued, "But we can work with this ninja through commission missions."
She couldn't quite understand why a ninja as powerful as Uzumaki Shixia was so obsessed with commission missions.
But one thing was certain: as long as it was an official commission mission, Sixia would accept it, no matter what it involved.
And Sixia had always completed every commission mission he accepted.
Getting Sixia to join Kirigakure wasn't realistic, but hiring him for a long-term partnership would definitely be possible.
Perhaps they could even get a discount?
After hearing Mei Terumi's explanation, Genji and the others all exchanged bewildered looks.
A ninja as powerful as Sixia would absolutely be an honored guest if he wanted to join any major shinobi village.
He could even establish a great clan single-handedly.
The village would be eager to offer him women of excellent lineage to bear his children.
Even Mei Terumi couldn't figure out what Sixia hoped to gain by completing missions so obsessively.
