Naruto: The Age of Ninja Swords Begins in Kumogakure

After instructing the trio on their training for a whole night, the group flew directly to the Land of Fire the next day aboard a Ninja Hawk.

After a year of training and transformation, Xiao Hei's size has increased further, and its speed has also greatly improved.

Furthermore, Xiao Hei was the first experiment of the Immortal Lotus Seed... no, the beneficiary, possessing the Platform Escape technique, a fusion of Yang and Wind attributes. This gave him powerful attack capabilities and further increased his flight speed.

The Platform Release technique was a bloodline material collected by Orochimaru, which Tamura Hao then fused with the Seven-Tails.

Of the nine tailed beasts, the One-Tail has Magnet Release, the Two-Tail has Fire Release, the Four-Tail has Lava Release, the Five-Tail has Boil Release, and the Six-Tail has both Lava Release and Boil Release. The remaining Three-Tail, Seven-Tail, Eight-Tail, and Nine-Tail do not have any elemental elemental release techniques.

However, the Eight-Tails possesses Yang Release, which allows it to unleash tremendous power, while the Nine-Tails possesses both Yang Release and Yin Release, making it the strongest of the nine tailed beasts.

Tamura Hao replenished the power of the tailed beasts he had acquired, fusing the Three-Tails with ice release cells from the Minazuki clan, giving it a weak ice release, fusing the Seven-Tails with a weak platform release, and fusing the Eight-Tails with a weak steel release.

The Nine-Tails cannot be fused with it, as its Yin Release and Yang Release are highly incompatible with other bloodline limits.

Although the fused bloodline limit is very weak, it is a seed that can be improved through training. Tamura Hao has already used the cursed seal given to him by Orochimaru to shape the consciousness of the nine tailed beasts' power, enabling them to train autonomously.

It's still a long way off; it hasn't even guided the power of the tailed beasts to form a complete individual yet, but it's only a matter of time before it's fully developed.

With his newfound power, Kuro was incredibly fast, arriving at the Konoha camp on the eastern front of the Land of Fire the very next day, where he met Orochimaru, the commander-in-chief.

"Snake Uncle!"

Tamura Hao felt a sense of familiarity upon meeting Orochimaru.

"teacher!"

Mitarashi Anko quickly stepped forward to greet him, for this was her teacher, someone her father had obtained through a favor.

"Is this the result of Haojun's research over this period of time?"

Orochimaru's gaze fell on the little monkey on his disciple's shoulder. His nephew had mentioned last time that he wanted to research and cultivate powerful summoning beasts, and this time he brought three with him, which should be the result.

"That's King Kong, this is Godzilla, and this is King Ghidorah. They all have great potential, but the energy required for their growth is quite high. I don't know if we can raise all three of them."

Tamura Hiroshi nodded, a troubled expression on his face.

"Potential is the most important thing; no matter how many resources you invest in someone without potential, they won't grow."

Orochimaru understood the importance of potential. Just like a ninja's training, without potential, no amount of resources can make someone a strong person.

"What brings you here this time?"

After sizing up the three little ones, Orochimaru asked what was going on.

He knew this kid's personality; he would never come here unless there was a reason.

"I want the seven ninja swords from Kirigakure."

After rubbing his hands together, Tamura Hiroshi didn't hide anything and revealed his purpose.

"How long can you maintain that state?"

Orochimaru did not refuse, but after thinking for a moment, he asked.

"No less than three minutes."

Tamura Hao stated a time limit, knowing that Orochimaru was asking about the state of fusion of the nine tailed beasts' power, which he could now maintain for three minutes.

"You've all broken through?"

Orochimaru was somewhat satisfied, and then turned his gaze to Nara Shikaku and the other two.

"Yes, Lord Orochimaru. Choza and Inoichi broke through that day, but I only broke through recently."

Nara Shikaku replied that he had recently broken through using the real waterfall on Turtle Island. That kind of treasure was of great help to Yin Release cultivation and ultimately became the opportunity for his breakthrough.

"Then let's set off for the Mist-Hidden Camp immediately."

After receiving confirmation, Orochimaru stood up and walked outside.

The situation at his camp is complicated, mainly because that old man, Danzo Shimura, seems to have changed his ways and gotten entangled with that teacher again.

The arrival of these people will inevitably be known to them soon, and in order to avoid any unforeseen circumstances, it is best to go into battle immediately.

He also wanted to end the battle here as soon as possible and then return to the village to make final preparations for competing for the Hokage position.

Tamura Hao and the others remained silent. After controlling the little black creature to fly down, they all leaped onto it and flew towards the Land of Waves, where the Hidden Mist Ninja Army's camp was located.

"The Hidden Mist Village has the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist here, as well as the Three-Tails Jinchuriki and the Six-Tails Jinchuriki. The Three-Tails Jinchuriki is a perfect Tailed Beast Jinchuriki, capable of entering a full Tailed Beast transformation state. The Six-Tails Jinchuriki can already use his six tails in a half-Tailed Beast transformation."

Standing on Xiao Hei's back, Orochimaru briefly explained the information about the Hidden Mist Ninja Army, emphasizing that the two Tailed Beast Jinchuriki were key, especially the Three-Tails Jinchuriki.

"The perfect Jinchūriki?"

Nara Shikaku and the others frowned. The Three-Tails was still in its single form before. Even if Kirigakure immediately found someone to seal it after they left, it was impossible for it to become a perfect Jinchūriki so quickly.

"I'm also curious about the reason behind it."

Orochimaru was quite interested in this. After killing the Three-Tails Jinchuriki, he would resurrect him using Edo Tensei and ask him about it slowly.

"You are better suited to fight against beings like the Tailed Beasts. I will take care of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist."

Orochimaru took on the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist mainly because Manda didn't want to fight the Three-Tails in its fully transformed tailed beast form, having been badly injured last time.

Of course, he wasn't going to take on the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist alone; there were also Anko and the others.

These kids are all excellent, currently at the Jonin level, especially Kakashi Hatake and Might Guy, who seem to have reached the limit of Jonin.

Anko has now reached the Jonin level, which shows how much progress she has made in the past year through training.

The biggest improvement is in my physique; I'm now 1.6 meters tall, which is comparable to that of an adult woman.

"Then let's finish this quickly, Kushina-neechan. You can use the Adamantine Sealing Chains to restrain the Six-Tails Jinchuriki, and we'll deal with the Three-Tails Jinchuriki as soon as possible."

Tamura Hao nodded, then looked at Uzumaki Kushina.

Although he was strong enough with the combined power of his nine tailed beasts, it was not easy to kill a tailed beast with thick skin and tough flesh, especially the Three-Tails with the strongest defense.

It will take some time.

"That kind of life-or-death crisis might cause the Six-Tails to actively assist the Jinchūriki in unleashing its complete form. If it is the complete Six-Tails, I can bind it for a maximum of two minutes."

The main problem is that the Six-Tails' Lava Release technique is highly corrosive to my Adamantine Sealing Technique.

Kushina Uzumaki only gave them two minutes, and of the nine tailed beasts, the Six-Tails was the one she least wanted to face.

The opponent's Lava Release technique was too effective against the Vajra Lockdown.

"We will kill the Three-Tails Jinchuriki as soon as possible, within two minutes."

Nodding, Tamura Hao knew the answer to the question, and he was confident that he could kill the Three-Tails Jinchuriki within two minutes.

He guessed that the Three-Tails Jinchuriki was probably the same as in the original story, with both the Three-Tails and the Jinchuriki being controlled by genjutsu. He just didn't know whether it was Madara Uchiha who did it or Obito Uchiha.

This is also a good opportunity to confirm, as he is very familiar with Obito Uchiha's eye power and has studied it extensively in the past.

The Konoha camp wasn't far from the Land of Waves, only a few hundred kilometers away, and at Kuro's speed, it didn't take long to get there.

Kushina Uzumaki, having activated Kagura's Mind's Eye, sensed the situation and then, using Yamanaka Inoichi's mental technique, transmitted the results to the others, gaining a general understanding of the distribution of ninjas in the Kirigakure camp below.

Tamura Hao took out the sealing scroll that was sealed on Xiao Hei's body and untied it, revealing a wider and thicker steel skeleton.

This steel skeleton was reshaped by him later, and it is larger and more robust than the one he made for the original Wukong Dharma Image. It also reached a height of sixty meters.

Then, the ape demon, which had grown to a height of sixty meters, was brought out. Using the kaleidoscope on the ape demon's body as a foundation, the power of the nine tailed beasts was guided to shape the steel skeleton.

Orochimaru watched quietly from the side. Although he had seen Tamura Hao's Nine Tailed Beasts Overlapping Dharma Form on the battlefield of the Land of Grass, it was obscured by smoke at the time, and he did not see the formation process.

Others were also watching, and they were even more shocked.

Is this guy's peak combat power?

Before long, a 60-meter-tall, imposing statue took shape, with a bull's head and a human body. The facial features were closer to human form, except for the two feet, which were huge bull hooves. The whole body was thick and powerful.

Even the ape demon's clone transformed into a giant single-edged battle axe, also sixty meters long, with an extremely large axe head.

This is the latest Dharma Form developed by Tamura Hao, the Ox Demon King form. Compared to the Goku Dharma Form, which focuses on speed and agility, the Ox Demon King Dharma Form is defensive and power-oriented. Tamura Hao even incorporated his own Steel Release chakra into it.

After completing the transformation, Tamura Hao controlled the Bull Demon King's Dharma form and leaped down. Nara Shikaku and the other two followed closely behind. While in mid-air, Akimichi Choza went into full power and transformed into a giant form that was also sixty meters tall. However, this time he did not use a long staff, but a giant axe, which was much heavier.

Nara Shikaku retrieved his shadow form, which he had been building and nurturing from the sealed space, and merged it with Choza's shadow, preparing to assist in the battle.

Yamanaka Inoichi also manifested his own Dharma form and attached it to Akimichi Choza, while simultaneously applying the Heavy Rock Technique to Akimichi Choza.

Both simultaneously slammed down towards the Three-Tails Jinchuriki they sensed, their giant axes poised to strike.

Meanwhile, the Three-Tails Jinchuriki and the Six-Tails Jinchuriki below also sensed the power of the Tailed Beasts unleashed by Tamura Hao and rushed out of the room immediately.

Upon seeing the two enormous creatures descending rapidly, he immediately unleashed his Tailed Beast Chakra.

The Three-Tails Jinchuriki transformed directly into the Three-Tails form, while the Six-Tails Jinchuriki also activated half-tailed beast transformation, with six black and red tails dancing behind them.

Upon discovering that the two giants' target was the Three-Tails, the Six-Tails Jinchuriki immediately prepared to rush over to provide support. However, the next moment, five golden chains shot out quickly, binding his hands and feet tightly, and even sealing most of his chakra.

It was Kushina Uzumaki who made the move. Taking advantage of the fact that both of their eyes were on Tamura Hao and the other person, she quickly descended and unleashed the Adamantine Sealing Barrier to restrain the Six-Tails Jinchuriki.

Sensing the sealing power of the chains, the Six-Tails Jinchuriki immediately unleashed his Lava Release power, hissing as he corroded the Adamantine Lock, and further unleashed his chakra in preparation to forcibly break free.

Kushina also unleashed her chakra to enhance the Adamantine Sealing Technique, and the two sides began to fight a battle of attrition.

Shizune then went to Kushina's side to protect her from being targeted by the Hidden Mist ninja.

Orochimaru led the others to confront the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist who also charged out, and summoned three giant snakes, including Manda, to prevent other Hidden Mist ninja from interfering.

Seeing that it was being targeted, the Three-Tails quickly curled up into a ball and spun around rapidly, trying to break free of the lock as soon as possible.

Before he could even start spinning, he was frozen in place by the shadow; it was Nara Shikaku who had made his move.

The three of them grew up together and had a perfect understanding of each other. They knew each other's methods and how to cooperate.

So while he was still landing, Akimichi Choza manipulated the butterfly wings to turn around and let his shadow fall on the Three-Tailed Beast, making it easier for Nara Shikaku to cast his spell.

Although the Three-Tails' immense chakra and power allowed it to break free in just two seconds, those two seconds became the fatal turning point.

The Bull Demon King's Dharma Form, imbued with the Weighted Rock Technique, crashed down first, using the momentum to swing his giant axe and strike the Three-Tailed Fox fiercely.

"Snap!"

The Vajra Giant Axe, imbued with Steel Release chakra, slammed into the Three-Tails' shell, cutting half of the axe blade inside and partially splitting the shell open.

That wasn't the end of it. Following closely behind, Akimichi Choza swung his giant axe and smashed it onto the back of the Vajra Giant Axe.

The axe blade, made of high-strength alloy, was dented by the impact. The immense force caused the Vajra Giant Axe to sink, with half of the axe head cutting into the three-tailed tortoise shell.

"roar!"

The three-tailed creature roared in pain and struggled desperately, its three long tails covered with sharp spikes extending and lashing out, trying to pull the two humans apart.

Choza Akimichi seized the opportunity to grab one of the giant tails that was whipping at him, bracing against the force of the blow. Then, with a tug, he unleashed his monstrous strength and forcefully flipped the three-tailed creature over so that its belly was facing upwards.

Having already drawn his Vajra Giant Axe, Tamura Hao unleashed the Dance of the Axe and Shield, his massive body tilting and spinning rapidly, the Vajra Giant Axe in his hand cutting through the relatively weak abdomen of the Three-Tailed Fox like a chainsaw.

The three of them, including Choza Akimichi, pulled on the tail of the three-tailed beast together to prevent it from turning over.

Tamura Hao also used Shukaku's chakra to perform the Super Heavy Rock Technique on the Three-Tails, making it even more difficult for it to turn the tide.

The Three-Tails' defenses were mainly concentrated on its back and tail, while its abdomen was relatively weak. After resisting for a while, its surface was cut through, and blood and chakra splattered everywhere.

The intense pain and the threat of death drove the Three-Tails even more insane, unleashing even greater chakra and power, nearly causing the three members of the Akimichi family to lose their balance.

Even if they tried to condense a Tailed Beast Ball, Tamura Hao shattered it instantly with his Vajra Battle Axe. The Tailed Beast Ball that could not be accumulated posed no threat to them.

"roar!"

Sensing the life-or-death crisis on the Three-Tails' side, the Six-Tails on the other side decisively took the initiative to unleash its power, pushing the Jinchuriki into the complete Tailed Beast form. A giant white slug appeared, its body flowing with terrifying slime, which was the extremely corrosive Lava Release power.

The Lava Release in its complete form is far stronger than the previous half-tailed beast form, and it is also more corrosive to the Adamantine Sealing Chains.

Kushina could only increase her chakra supply to maintain the stalemate.

The battle between Orochimaru and his companions and the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist was also extremely brutal. The two sides entered a heated state as soon as they clashed, using all sorts of methods.

Might Guy went even further, opening all seven gates and unleashing a powerful attack with Daytime Tiger, its destructive force astonishing, no less than that of a Tailed Beast.

Kakashi also opened the Fifth Gate, and the White Fang Ninja Blade in his hand extended a three-meter-long Chidori Lightning, which was indestructible and whose combat power was no less than that of a Kage-level expert.

Kurenai Yuhi, Anko Mitarashi, and Natsuhihoshi also unleashed their full power, each managing to hold off one person.

As for the Mist Ninja who rushed over, they were blocked by the three-headed giant snake. Faced with such a massive size, the methods of ordinary ninjas were simply ineffective.

After nearly two minutes of intense fighting, the Three-Tails finally let out a mournful roar of resentment as its body was cleaved in two by the Vajra Giant Axe.

Even with the physique of a tailed beast, such an injury is very serious. The most important thing is to reveal the Jinchūriki.

Nara Shikaku, who had been watching closely, used his shadow form to grab the Three-Tails Jinchuriki, who had only revealed half of his body, and forcefully ripped his head off.

Tamura Hao raised his hand to catch and crush it, sensing a familiar chakra.

"Obito-kun, we will definitely have a chance to meet again."

After confirming that it was Obito Uchiha's eye power, Tamura Hao smiled and then sealed that eye power away.

Controlling the Three-Tails and a Kage-level powerhouse is very difficult, let alone long-term control; it requires a large amount of ocular power to reinforce it.

Tamura Hao would love to have as many kaleidoscope-level pupil powers as possible.

After glancing at the Three-Tails, whose body was rapidly disintegrating as its jinchūriki died, Tamura Hao quickly took out the sealing ninja tool he had prepared beforehand and sealed the remaining parts of the Three-Tails inside.

Nara Shikaku also manipulated his shadow form to pick up the surrounding debris and send it to be sealed.

After doing all this, they charged together with their giant axes toward the Six-Tails.

The sight of that pose made the Six-Tails shudder. Its body wasn't as tough as the Three-Tails', and it wouldn't last long if it were to be brutally attacked like that.

"Humans!"

With an angry roar, the Six-Tails struggled desperately, causing Kushina's face to turn pale, but she still gritted her teeth and held on, maintaining the Adamantine Sealing Barrier.

Tamura Hao and Akimichi Choza charged from both sides, simultaneously unleashing the Dance of Shield and Axe, spinning rapidly to attack the Six-Tails from both sides.

"Earth Release: Super Weighted Rock Technique!"

Tamura Hao once again used Shukaku's chakra to perform the Super Weight Rock Technique, almost crushing the Six-Tails.

The two worked together to launch a frantic cutting attack. Akimichi Choza's alloy giant axe had limited strength and could not break through the tailed beast's defense. It was even quickly corroded by the molten acid on the Six-Tails' body.

However, the force it carried dealt a powerful blow to the Six-Tails, and continued to slam it into Tamura Hao's attacks on the other side.

Tamura Hao's Vajra Giant Axe, formed from the Enma clone, was already extremely powerful. With the addition of Steel Release chakra, its strength and sharpness were further enhanced, allowing it to even cut through the Three-Tails' back shell, let alone the current Six-Tails.

Soon it was another scene of blood and flesh flying everywhere. No matter how unwilling the Six-Tails was, it could not escape its fate of being hacked to death.

The main purpose was to shatter the Jinchuriki within his body. With the Jinchuriki dead, the Six-Tails naturally could not survive on its own, and its body rapidly disintegrated. Tamura Hao only had time to seal a small portion of it and the surrounding fragments that had been chopped off.

After killing the Six-Tails Jinchuriki, Tamura Hao quickly dispelled the Ox-King Dharma Form and withdrew all the power within.

Although the battle had lasted less than three minutes, the chakra in the Yin Seal had already been depleted by more than 80%. Life without chakra is very dangerous, especially since they were currently in the Kirigakure Ninja camp.

Without using the power of the tailed beasts again, Tamura Hao used the Multi-Size Technique to transform into a 30-meter-tall giant. He also used Steel Release, transforming into a giant golden man, and charged towards the remaining Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.

Akimichi Choza didn't even bother to rest and rushed over.

"withdraw!"

When Kisame Hozuki, who was fighting Orochimaru, saw the two giants charging towards him, his expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly shouted for a retreat.

"Leave your ninja swords behind!"

Seeing the remaining four retreat, Tamura Hao roared and ran even faster, finally lunging forward to kill them.
