"Me? Granny Chiyo! Sasori and I are both Chunin!"
Chiyo gave a meaningful smile:
" Mukai, you now command the greatest fighting force in Sunagakure."
Since the founding of Sunagakure, you are the first person to Shukaku as a summoning beast.
Jonin Rasa, Mukai, and Mikoto and Sasori have been promoted to Jonin. Are there any problems?
Since the assassination of the Third Kazekage, Rasa has been in a very low mood.
Upon hearing Chiyo's question, he hesitated for a moment before slowly replying:
"Absolutely no problem."
Especially Mukai, who can control Shukaku, has already far surpassed the Jinchūriki.
This is a world with extraordinary powers, even though Mukai had always hidden his power before.
The fact that he could subdue the unruly Tailed Beast Shukaku alone is enough to make people feel terrified of Mukai's strength.
The Shukaku that was just now as docile as a kitten, no one would believe that it was One-Tail!
Looking at the seemingly harmless Mukai, Rasa's perception of his strength had risen to a terrifying level!
Given his previous effortless completion of A-rank and S-rank missions, who can question Mukai's promotion to Jonin despite being a rank Jonin?
Chiyo then nodded and said:
"In this critical time, we must block all information and convene the Jonin Conference immediately!"
As she spoke, she suddenly asked:
" Mukai, could you tell me how you subdued Shukaku and made it your summoning beast?"
If it's a secret technique, you don't need to tell me; I'm just curious.
Upon hearing Elder Chiyo's question, everyone, including Rasa, perked up their ears.
Mukai grinned and said:
"There was no secret; I simply used love and understanding to eventually win over Shukaku."
Central Death Desert
Shukaku ran around happily on all fours in the desert for a few laps before settling down beside a sand dune and patting its belly.
It should have been very happy to be free from the sealed space and able to run freely in the desert.
However, the psychic array imprinted on its soul added another kind of shackle to it.
The key point is that it actively requested this communication array.
Shukaku's tanuki body was covered in yellow sand. Recalling the battle in the consciousness space today, it still felt lingering fear.
This is absolutely terrifying! Shouldn't the trial participants, like the Bunpuku Fenfu, communicate with it using love and understanding?
When Shukaku projected its consciousness space, it was clear that only one consciousness entered.
Shouldn't there be three people?
Are the other two so inferior that they can't even achieve a resonance of consciousness?
Shukaku didn't care. Instead, it enthusiastically materialized its complete body in its consciousness space, preparing to give this trial participant a shock!
Its colossal body, fifty meters tall, is a scourge in the desert.
It is the master of the Magnet Release Sealing Jutsu, and it is the One-Tail Shukaku that can stop a child from crying!
However, when Shukaku's complete form saw Mukai's consciousness, he was completely stunned!
The Sage of Six Paths is above!
Who is this person?
Mukai, curiously stepping into the space of consciousness, maintained the form of his human body.
There was no mecha, nor were they carrying ninja tools or scrolls.
He examined the sand raccoon covered in purple runes with great interest.
For people of this era, the fifty-meter-tall Shukaku is an absolutely terrifying behemoth.
However, for modern people like Mukai, there are many skyscrapers in ordinary metropolises that are fifty meters tall.
Fourteen or fifteen stories is nothing, a piece of cake.
What shocked Shukaku was not the small Mukai in front of him, but the enormous light and shadow behind Mukai!
The kind that's as dazzling as a sea of stars!
Shukaku asked hesitantly:
"You... are you sure you're Sunagakure Ninja here for the trial?"
Mukai nodded and asked in return:
"So you're the One-Tail Shukaku that everyone in Sunagakure fears?"
Tell me how to awaken Magnet Release!
That's more like it!
Shukaku felt confident again, and tormenting the Sunagakure Ninja came to undergo trials was always a welcome change from its monotonous life.
Since that's the case, it won't hold back and will do its best to please Shukaku! Young Sand Ninja!
Shukaku grinned and sneered:
"If you want to awaken Magnet Release, then try to withstand my attack!"
Shukaku spoke, its massive sand arm slammed down.
"Is he really that bad-tempered?"
Mukai shook his head, while the three large orbs of light behind him watched with great interest how Mukai respond.
If we're talking about what Mukai is most familiar with right now, it's naturally the various operations within the consciousness space!
In this space, what you see is what you get!
"I will launch in Gundam form!"
Within this space of consciousness, with his computing power at its maximum, he was like a god!
As a classic model in Mobile Suit Gundam, the Freedom Gundam's various appearances are naturally familiar to him.
To Shukaku's astonishment, tiny Mukai its body, and parts appeared out of thin air.
During the calculations of the intelligent Komushi, countless mecha parts appear and combine.
Soon, a cool-looking mecha with a white main body and blue-black color scheme appeared in front of Shukaku.
The original Freedom Gundam is 18 meters tall. In the realm of consciousness, how could Mukai possibly make himself shorter than Shukaku?
Enlarged to scale, the Freedom Gundam that appeared before Shukaku was 51 meters tall!
Only one meter taller than Shukaku!
Mukai's voice, delivered through the Freedom Gundam's speaker, carried an unusual air of dominance:
"Submit to me, or be destroyed by me!"
Since its birth, the proud and unruly Shukaku has never been treated with such contempt.
Even against the Nine-Tails, which he was most at odds with, it never backed down!
"Roar!"
Enraged, Shukaku roared and slapped its belly.
" Drilling Air Bullet!"
A dense, violent gust of wind was spewed from its mouth and shot towards Mukai was suspended in mid-air wearing the Freedom Gundam.
With the Freedom Gundam's mobility, the Mukai can easily dodge Drilling Air Bullet.
He was merely weighing the pros and cons in the outside world; in the realm of his consciousness, which he could freely control,
How could he be such a coward?
The thrusters recoil, activating the shield protection!
boom!
Shukaku's most prized Wind Release: Drilling Air Bullet barely managed to breach the plasma lattice protective layer surrounding the shield.
It only took away a little bit of paint from the surface of the Freedom Gundam's shield!
In reality, his materials, energy, and control are limited by his industrial base, preventing him from building the Freedom Gundam.
However, as long as he continues to develop step by step, he will definitely shock the Shinobi World with this cool mecha!
"Is this the power of One-Tail Shukaku?"
How can you be so weak?
I'm so disappointed.
I can do it! Push harder, push even harder!
"Bastard! Bastard! Big bastard!"
Shukaku was so angry it was practically spitting fire; with a flick of its claws, a cloud of yellow sand swirled up from the ground.
" Sand Waterfall Funeral!"
Hundreds of tons of yellow sand formed a tsunami-like sandstorm, sweeping towards Mukai Xiang.
"Is this the power of Magnet Release?"
It seems there's an element of gravity involved.
That's more like it!
Please me as much as you like, Shukaku!
Missile Storm!
The guided missiles on the Freedom Gundam's shoulders roared out.
Like a continuous barrage of bullets, it blasted directly at the tsunami-like sandstorm!
