"Splash!"

One shot hit the audience in the first few rows, killing those 'lucky' audience members who hadn't had time to be moved, right there in their sleep.

The other shot struck the beam above, shattering the wall and sending debris crashing down, engulfing the audience below.

Even though Might Guy, who was nearby, reacted quickly and dodged past, blasting away countless rocks and saving many ordinary people, a considerable number of people were still buried by the rocks.

A large amount of blood splattered out.

The scattered limbs and severed bodies made the area extremely bloody and terrifying at that moment.

"asshole!"

Seeing this scene.

Kakashi's expression turned extremely ugly.

"Hahahahahaha!"

Upon seeing his 'masterpiece,' Shukaku burst into unrestrained laughter, his laughter filled with smugness and delight.

It has been sealed away for so many years.

The last time I could play to my heart's content was a decade or two ago.

"No one can stop me!!!"

Shukaku roared angrily.

Even if it's not as strong as the Eight-Tails or Nine-Tails, Shukaku is invincible in the face of ordinary ninjas.

So what if Kakashi has the Sharingan!?

Ordinary Sharingan with tomoe is a joke to tailed beasts.

To truly subdue a tailed beast, one must possess the Mangekyou Sharingan.

Moreover, all of that comes at the cost of consuming eye power.

How was Naruto able to defeat Shukaku in the original story?

Wasn't that all thanks to Gamabunta from Mount Myōboku, who possessed almost Kage-level power?

Later, thanks to Gamabunta's reminder, Naruto directly woke Gaara up, causing Shukaku's consciousness to sink back into oblivion. Otherwise, if the fight had continued, Gamabunta would not have been a match for Shukaku!

With Kakashi, who was unaware that he possessed the Mangekyou Sharingan, and others like Asuma and Genma Shiranui, it was impossible to stop the rampaging Shukaku!

Looking at Shukaku's easily rampant behavior.

Kakashi, Asuma, and others looked utterly disheveled.

Having already created some distance beforehand, Mianma, standing atop the dilapidated high wall, revealed a cruel smile.

"That's how it should be! Keep venting, Shukaku! Let this firework display be even more spectacular than it was 12 years ago! Let Konoha feel true pain again!!!"

Chapter 122 The Confrontation

Gaara was not injured.

The process of transforming into a tailed beast was not interrupted.

With its perfect debut, Shukaku can naturally unleash a stronger version of itself than in the original work. Although it still has certain limitations, the strength Shukaku is displaying at this moment has reached a level that is 100% stronger than that of an ordinary Kage.

Kakashi, Asuma, and a few others alone could not possibly defeat Shukaku; even slowing Shukaku down would be extremely difficult.

However, there were still people among those present who were capable of matching Shukaku.

Almost immediately after Shukaku used its powerful Wind Release technique to annihilate hundreds of ordinary spectators, further forcing Kakashi and the others to retreat, and then about to go berserk again.

"Konoha Vajra Whirlwind!!"

It is located diagonally to the side of Shukaku.

Suddenly, a burly figure appeared, emanating a terrifying wave of chakra. Accompanied by a deep shout, his right leg swung out with tremendous force.

"Peng!"

It struck heavily on the left side of Shukaku's massive body.

A tremendous force transmitted upwards.

"!?"

Not only did it directly shatter the chakra that Shukaku had just gathered, but its massive body was also forcibly blasted back by this attack, flying towards the northwest, away from the venue, and clearly into a remote area of ​​Konoha Village.

"boom!"

"Peng!"

It was launched out.

Another loud bang followed, and as Shukaku's body slammed heavily onto the ground, the entire surface shook violently.

This was an unparalleled strike.

It also directly attracted everyone's attention.

Maki, Fugi, Kankuro, and the other Sand Ninja were all surprised to see their powerful One-Tailed Beast fly away.

That's a Tailed Beast!!!

Could it be Jiraiya, one of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha?!

Maki quickly shifted his gaze to the figure that had just blasted Shukaku away, but the person he saw was not the famous Konoha hero, but a figure covered in a layer of azure chakra spiraling outwards.

"This is!?"

Mianma's previous maniacal laughter vanished, replaced by a look of apprehension and solemnity as he gazed at the appearing azure figure.

'Might Guy, Eight Gates!!!'

"Mianma" was also a subconscious, chilling sound in his voice.

Kakashi, Genma, and the others who had just been forced back by Shukaku also noticed who had come to their rescue.

Everyone wore a happy expression and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Kai!"

If it weren't for Might Guy's attack.

If Shukaku continues to unleash his Wind Release technique, hundreds or even thousands more ordinary people in this venue will die.

This is not the scene they want to see.

This is their home.

"You guys handle those guys, Kakashi. I'll take care of that monster!"

With a high-altitude catapult, Might Guy landed directly atop the high wall. This Blue Beast of Konoha, who had already opened the Eight Gates to the sixth level, exuded a terrifying, powerful, and dangerous chakra aura.

Although the Eight Gates Formation undergoes a true qualitative change when the eighth gate is opened.

However, the first seven gates are enough to allow the caster to enhance their strength to an extremely exaggerated degree.

Especially Matt Kai.

Having opened the sixth gate, he was already comparable to most Kage-level powerhouses. In the original work, with the seventh gate, he was able to kill Kisame Hoshigaki, a humanoid tailed beast.

That is undoubtedly at the level of a powerful shadow.

Now, we're dealing with a One-Tailed Beast that hasn't reached its full potential yet.

Six gates.

That's just enough.

After Matt Kay uttered those words.

"Whoosh!"

The explosive chakra was directed straight at Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, which had just gotten up not far away.

"Kai, wait a minute..."

Kakashi hadn't even had a chance to say anything.

Might Guy's figure had already disappeared into the distance.

"Asuma, Genma, Kurenai, I'm leaving this to you. I'm going to support Guy. Naruto, remember, this is a battlefield. Whatever happens, we have to wait until it's over before considering anything else. Whether it's the village or Menma, hesitation will only cause more trauma to yourself and others. You don't want to see a complete confrontation with Menma, do you?"

Kakashi first quickly spoke to Asuma and the other two, who were forced to temporarily separate from the Sand and Sound Ninja due to Shukaku's sudden outburst. After glancing at Menma, who was still standing on the high wall, Kakashi looked at Naruto earnestly and said in a very serious tone.

"Yes, don't worry, Kakashi."

"Leave this to us!"

Genma and Asuma both nodded. They knew very well what Kakashi was emphasizing. In this meeting place, the two most important people, besides Shukaku (the One-Tailed Beast), were Menma Uzumaki, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki of their Hidden Leaf Village!

However, as things stand, Menma seems to be quite stable at the moment. He can only borrow the Nine-Tails' chakra in the most basic way and cannot directly transform into a tailed beast like Gaara. The priority is still to deal with the Complete One-Tail that Gaara has transformed into!

That is the terrifying force that has inflicted the greatest damage on Konoha so far.

The dough is brown here.

Kakashi felt that having three Jonin—Asuma, Kurenai Yuhi, and Genma—was more than enough.

Naruto shuddered upon hearing Kakashi's words, then seemed to finally snap out of it. He looked directly at Menma not far away, took a deep breath, and nodded emphatically, replying, "I understand, Kakashi-nii. I will definitely stop Menma. We'll talk about everything later!"

Seeing Naruto's obvious renewed spirits.

Kakashi nodded with satisfaction.

Immediately afterwards.

He leaped forward, intending to go and support Might Guy.

But Maki will not let Kakashi have his way.

The same image was reflected back quickly.

Halfway there.
