I am the most popular character in Naruto!

"If we're going to leave, we'll leave together!"

As Killer Bee finished speaking, a tail made entirely of chakra appeared on his Tailed Beast Cloak.

One, two, three...

By the fourth time, Killer Bee's body began to burn. His eyes were filled with determination. Even if it meant using all the power of the Tailed Beast, he would take his older brother away!

As the tailed beast chakra covered him, Killer Bee gradually lost his human form. A large amount of tailed beast chakra surged on his body, transforming him into a chakra monster.

Roar!

Killer Bee...

No, it should be said that the tailed beast-like monster roared at Chiaki and the other three, and moved to block Ai's way.

"What it is!?"

Minato took a step back, staring in horror at Killer Bee's transformation into a tailed beast-like monster. Hyuga Hizashi covered his Byakugan in terror.

He had just tentatively used his Byakugan to observe Killer Bee, but his eyes were burned by the evil and terrifying tailed beast chakra.

Future took a few steps back in fright, muttering to herself, "This monster has a strong aura of blood... yet it's uncontrollable... it's truly unbelievable!"

"Everyone, step back..."

Qianqiu's heart sank; the most troublesome situation had finally occurred.

However, they have achieved their goal: to keep Aiolia and Killer Bee occupied and create the impression that they have been captured by the Land of Earth.

Swoosh

A flash of silver light, and Sakumo Hatake stepped in front of Chiaki, saying solemnly, "You guys, the mission is complete. Retreat and proceed to the next mission!"

"This is something you can't handle right now!"

Even Sakumo Hatake wasn't entirely confident when facing a threat at the level of a Tailed Beast.

At this moment, Killer Bee had no difficulty dealing with these tailed beast creatures, but even if he could defeat them, what good would it do?

If Killer Bee is angered, the final result will be the release of the true Tailed Beast, the Eight-Tails Gyūki.

If the Eight-Tails appears, the battle will be truly irreversible, and it could very well trigger a war between the Tailed Beasts!

"That's all it can do."

Chiaki comforted the future, turning her into a blood-red scarf, and then looked at Minato solemnly, saying, "Minato-senpai, I have a very dangerous mission for you. I don't know if you can complete it."

"You said."

Minato nodded solemnly, "I will definitely do whatever I can!"

Sakumo Hatake cautiously retreated, protecting Chiaki, while Killer Bee, in his tailed beast-like form, stared intently at Sakumo Hatake.

Of all the people present, only Sakumo Hatake felt threatened.

After hearing what Chiaki said to Minato, Sakumo Hatake paused, then said with difficulty to Chiaki:

"Hey, little girl, you're not trying to... snatch food from a tiger's mouth, are you?"

"What else can I do? Words are not enough; I have to show them some evidence."

Chiaki stared intently at the seemingly intelligent tailed beast-like creature, his mind racing as he calculated the likelihood of his plan succeeding.

Killer Bee is a perfect Jinchūriki; compared to Naruto, he can control the power of the Tailed Beast within him even more perfectly.

In other words, there is a high probability that those tailed beast creatures are actually controlled by a trace of Killer Bee's rationality and consciousness, rather than being completely like the tailed beast creature Naruto transformed into, which only had animal instincts.

That being the case...

That would make snatching food from the tiger's mouth somewhat feasible.

"Senior Minato... I need you to take something from Aiolia as quickly as possible, whether it's a piece of clothing, a ninja tool bag, or something else."

"Anything that belongs to Xiao Ai is fine."

Chiaki stared intently at the tailed beast-like creature confronting her, then gave Minato some instructions and extended her hand to him.

"Add a Flying Thunder God Technique to my setup, and you should be able to link the two points, right?"

"It's nothing. As long as you don't die, I'm confident I can bring you back to life!"

Snatching food from the tiger's mouth.

This is truly snatching food from the jaws of a tiger.

The aura emanating from Killer Bee's tailed beast-like form far surpassed that of a Kage-level being, making it extremely difficult to obtain anything from Aiolia from such a monster.

"I understand."

However, Minato nodded solemnly and placed a Flying Thunder God mark on Chiaki's arm.

"You evacuate, I'll be right there!"

He said to Chiaki, who shook her head, "No, teacher and Hizashi, you go first and take Minato's special kunai."

"I'll stay behind to ensure Minato's safety. After we succeed, Minato can take me away to escape."

"Little princess! I..."

Hyuga Hizashi, as if insulted, stood up agitatedly, but Hatake Sakumo grabbed him and said, "What's going on! Are you the captain or is Chiaki the captain?"

"...Lord White Fang, but I'm not willing to abandon my teammates and run away like this!"

Hyuga Hizashi stared stubbornly at Hatake Sakumo, who slightly lost his composure and turned his gaze to Chiaki.

The desire to protect teammates definitely needs to be taken into consideration.

"Mr. Hatake, you are an outsider, don't get too much attention."

Chiaki coldly said, "Hyuga Hizashi, leave!"

"The farther you run, the more you can help us!"

"Ensuring the successful evacuation of the three of us is also a way to protect our teammates!"

After saying that, Qianqiu seemed to realize that her tone was a bit harsh, and gently advised, "The future is also in my hands, and I cannot abandon my future life."

Chapter 291 Being Targeted

No matter what, given Qianqiu's temperament, she would never joke about the future.

Since Chiaki has kept the future by her side, it means that Chiaki has no intention of dying.

Hyuga Hizashi paused for a moment after thinking about this, then reluctantly accepted Chiaki's explanation and bowed deeply to her and Minato.

"Please make sure you two are safe!"

"I'll shamelessly find you two a safe place first, and welcome you on your successful escape!"

"Don't worry, trust us."

Minato smiled slightly, took out a specially made kunai from his ninja tool bag, and handed it to Hatake Sakumo. "Lord White Fang, please hold this kunai in your hand. I can basically sense anything within a ten-kilometer radius."

Chiaki said with disdain, "Why do I feel like you've become a lot weaker since you got rid of your ninja identity?"

Sakumo Hatake chuckled and waved his hand at Chiaki, "I just realized how precious life is."

"Alright, alright, you guys continue with the mission. I'll take this guy a little further away!"

"Thank you very much, teacher."

Chiaki made a face at Hatake Sakumo, who shook his head helplessly. After taking the special kunai from Minato's hand, he disappeared with Hyuga Hizashi.

With no worries about the future, Chiaki tilted her head towards Minato.

"Then, let's get started!"

Minato took a deep breath, stared directly at Aiolia, who was being protected by Killer Bee, and then vanished in a flash of golden light.

Swoosh

The next moment, a flash of golden light appeared, and Minato suddenly appeared beside Ai.

Killer Bee, in his tailed beast-like form, suddenly turned around and instinctively swung out his claws.

This claw strike was both swift and powerful, as if it had known all along that Minato would appear in that location.

Minato, who had just appeared, was startled by the terrifying speed and instinct of the tailed beast-like creature. At the critical moment, he grabbed Aiolia's headband and used his other hand to shield himself.

The tailed beast-like creature's claws slammed directly onto Minato's arm, simultaneously striking his chest.

puff

Minato coughed up a mouthful of blood, as if his chest had been shattered by a heavy hammer. He could clearly feel that his ribs and the bones in his arms were completely crushed.

so horrible!

The strength, speed, and reaction of the tailed beast-like creature far surpassed those of a Kage-level being. For Minato, an elite Jonin, to fight against it was practically like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

"I...I've seen a ghost..."

"Is this what a Tailed Beast is? Is this what a Jinchuriki is?"

Minato gripped Ai's headband tightly, pulling it back with difficulty, which caused Ai's body to move slightly.

Xiao Ai's slight movement alerted the tailed beast-like creature to the problem.

Beneath its claws, besides Minato, there was also Aiolia who needed protection. The tailed beast-like creature with Killer Bee's consciousness paused slightly and withdrew a bit of its power.

"it is good!"

Minato's eyes lit up, because the tailed beast-like creature's pause gave him a bit of leeway.

"go!"

With his last bit of strength, Minato ripped off his headband and vanished in a flash of golden light.

"?"

Upon seeing Minato's figure disappear and Aiolia's headband vanish, the tailed beast-like creature roared in fury.

Although it doesn't know what Minato's purpose is in taking the headband, it doesn't need to know. As long as the enemy doesn't take anything from Aiolia, it's considered a success.

Swoosh
