Only I can make Konoha Village great again.

The smile that had just appeared on Yamanaka Chujiu's face froze on his face.

At the edge of the mental barrier, a large group of emotional sources were sensed, numbering over a hundred.

Judging from their emotional characteristics, these hundred-plus people were all Cloud Village ninjas, and they were Cloud Village ninjas who had never experienced failure, were full of self-confidence, and were filled with anger.

Their high level of self-confidence indicates that they have not experienced failure, and they are neither ninjas from the supply center nor ninjas from the main force of the front line.

Their intense anger indicated that they had witnessed the devastation at the supply center.

Based on these two points, they should be fresh troops who came from Kumogakure to provide support, following the two Yugitos!

Shan Zhongchu Jiu was stunned and pained, and couldn't help but press his forehead, muttering to himself in anguish, "This is truly unbelievable, how can there be so many enemies?"

With so many Cloud Village ninjas entering the battlefield, the enemy's strength completely overwhelmed them, and no strategy could bridge the gap.

Therefore, the plan that was just made has completely collapsed, and no matter how heartbroken we are, we can only give up.

But Yamanaka Hatsukyu didn't expect that after he painfully gave up his plan to control the Two-Tailed Matatabi, his mind would suddenly become clear.

Immediately, he felt a chill run down his spine, and a deep sense of lingering fear welled up inside him.

That was too dangerous! I almost got myself killed!

Perhaps because of his consecutive victories, or perhaps because of the feeling of playing like a chess player on the battlefield, Yamanaka Hatsuyu was unknowingly controlled by greedy desires and made a choice that put himself and Uchiha Shisui in danger.

That's right, he can already control Matatabi, indirectly controlling Yugito Nii's judgment. It seems he can make her live or die at will.

But after letting go of his greed, he immediately realized that this was just a superficial phenomenon.

Two-Tailed Tamata wasn't always this silly; it's been this silly cat since it was created by the Sage of Six Paths a thousand years ago.

But a thousand years have passed, and both the silly Two-Tails and the clumsy Seven-Tails have grown into tailed beasts that intimidate the ninja world, without being controlled by anyone because of their stupidity.

Even if the ninjas of that time were immature and had not developed ninjutsu that could control tailed beasts, the sages of the three holy lands also failed to do so. Was it because they couldn't think of it, or because they couldn't do it?

Haha, the ninth day of the ninth month in the mountains doesn't believe it.

The Sage of Six Paths, who could deceive his brothers into betraying their mother, and the Great Toad Sage, who guided the course of the ninja world's history for a thousand years with prophecies, could not possibly have been unaware of controlling one or two tailed beasts as henchmen of Mount Myōboku.

So, the cunning frog keeps touching your belly!

Tailed beasts are definitely not that easy to control!

Shan Zhongchu was startled and a word came to mind: instinct!

That's right, it's instinct!

The overwhelming power of its instincts allowed the Two-Tailed Matatabi to be easily controlled by Yamanaka Hatsukyu, but this control was only possible when it did not encounter any real danger.

If the ninth day of the lunar month crosses the boundary and encounters the danger of losing his life or freedom, his powerful instincts will inevitably launch a fierce counterattack.

Matatabi is a cat-shaped tailed beast, not a real cat. Its instincts are fully activated, and the effects will inevitably include immunity to mind control and a terrifying burst of potential.

Perhaps a Kage-level ninja could defeat the Two-Tails Matatabi, whose true strength is not strong enough, through sheer power, but Yamanaka Hatsukyu could not.

His strength lies in the spirit and mind, not in head-on confrontations.

Yamanaka Chujiu silently calmed his lingering fear, calculated the arrival time of hundreds of Cloud Village ninjas on the battlefield, and a brand new plan emerged in his mind.

His eyes flashed with a fierce light as he stared intently at the disoriented Two-Tails Jinchuriki.

Don't blame me, you all forced me into this!

Yamanaka Hatsukyu gave up on eliminating his own presence and used all his mental energy to generate strands of thought, which then densely wrapped around the two-tailed Matatabi.

As expected, this operation crossed the expected danger threshold, and the two-tailed beast instinctively sensed the danger.

The simple-minded and hot-tempered Two-Tails lost control of its emotions instantly, entering a berserk mode and unleashing unprecedented tailed beast chakra.

The unfortunate Jinchuriki ninja had just noticed another ninja beside him when, in his shock, he had no time to do anything before being overwhelmed by the raging Tailed Beast chakra and lost consciousness.

A deep blue tailed beast chakra surged wildly from her body, instantly expanding into a deep blue fireball with a diameter of over ten meters and a height of over twenty meters.

The phantom of Matatabi, the Two-Tails, appeared within the fireball and quickly became clear and real, initiating the process of tailed beast transformation.

As a massive amount of chakra overflowed from his body, Yugito regained consciousness.

She sensed the Two-Tails losing control within her, panicked, and circulated her chakra in an attempt to suppress the tailed beast.

But the two-tailed beast had gone completely berserk and was beyond her ability to suppress.

Even after sensing Yugito's resistance, the Two-Tails turned around and attacked Yugito's mind, causing her to fall into a dazed state again.

Just as Matatabi struck at Yukito's heart, Yamanaka Hatsukyu resolutely sent a thin thread of thought deep into Matatabi's soul.

This time, he intends to directly control Matatabi's consciousness, temporarily transforming it into a mind-to-mind puppet, and using the power of the tailed beasts to defeat the Cloud Village ninjas who are about to arrive on the battlefield.

As the thought of Yamanaka Chujiu penetrated into the mind of the two-tailed beast, it was met with a terrible mental storm, and in an instant, one-tenth of its thoughts were brutally crushed.

This mental storm did not belong to Matatabi, the Two-Tails, but was driven by the combined mental power of all nine tailed beasts, making it incredibly powerful.

The thought, once extinguished, was fed back into the mind of Chu Jiu in the mountains, causing a severe mental backlash.

Shan Zhongchu groaned, black blood gushing from his ear canals and nostrils at the same time. The veins on his forehead bulged like earthworms, and his face turned as pale as paper in an instant.

But he did not give up. He endured the excruciating pain that felt like his brain was boiling, and disregarded the fact that his thoughts were being stripped away and strangled layer by layer by the mental storm. He forcibly entangled himself with the consciousness of the Two-Tailed Matatabi, and tried his best to erode it and control it.

The ninth day of the month in the mountains is not a good day, and neither are the two wooden figures.

Her body stood stiffly on the ground, her eyes rolled back, neither dodging nor parrying Uchiha Shisui's attacks, relying on the Tailed Beast Cloak that came with her Tailed Beast Transformation to withstand the damage.

Uchiha Shisui had no idea what was happening and could only desperately attack Yugito, but he couldn't inflict any damage.

Kunai cannot shake the Tailed Beast Cloak, and fire jutsu will be absorbed by the Tailed Beast Cloak, which will instead strengthen the enemy.

Even his strongest Sharingan genjutsu couldn't affect Yugito, who had lost consciousness.

Uchiha Shisui was shocked and furious to find that he could do nothing and could only stop and retreat in fear, lest his rash actions harm Yamanaka Hatsukyu.

Time passed slowly, and before his mental energy was exhausted, Yamanaka Chujiu finally managed to suppress the Two-Tails' consciousness and take control of its body.

He opened his eyes and smiled slightly at Uchiha: "It's a success."
