Chapter 67: The Six-Tails! The Seven Ninja Swordsmen's First Battle (Part 2)
Kurare Kushimaru was slightly behind Jinpachi Munashi due to his surprise, which terrified Jinpachi Munashi. They had agreed to attack together, but he actually sold out his teammate!
The Six-Tails Jinchuriki, having suffered successive ninjutsu bombardments, finally broke free from control. Its six tails wildly flew and swept behind it, making Jinpachi Munashi, who had just gotten close to attack, very Embarrassed.
"Help...! Help...! Help...!!!" Jinpachi Munashi, who was facing the Six-Tails Jinchuriki's attack alone and was in a miserable state, let out a series of rapid cries for help.
"Water Release: Water Whip!"
Torune Aburame, who was also charging but had fallen behind, made his move. A soft water whip wrapped around Jinpachi Munashi's waist, pulling him back. Then, he joined Jūzō Biwa and Suikazan Fuguki. The four of them charged together, launching a siege on the Six-Tails Jinchuriki.
Suikazan Fuguki, because he wielded the Great Sword, Samehada, which could absorb Chakra, was responsible for the main attack among the four.
Samehada was swung up and down in his hands, constantly Cut the Six-Tails Jinchuriki. Each slash could take away a portion of the Six-Tails Jinchuriki's outer Chakra layer.
This made Samehada extremely happy. After all, this kind of normal tailed beast Chakra was very delicious to it.
On Kurare Kushimaru's side, knowing that he had inadvertently坑ed his good friend, he hurriedly tried to make up for it. After probing, he had already discovered that his attacks couldn't break through the Six-Tails Jinchuriki's defense. Therefore, he switched to focusing on support. Under his precise control, Nuibari constantly harassed the Six-Tails Jinchuriki.
Not long after, Kurare Kushimaru used Nuibari's wire to tightly bind several tails of the Six-Tails Jinchuriki. The slender but exceptionally tough wire prevented it from breaking free at the first moment it was controlled.
Seeing this opportunity, Torune Aburame raised his blunt sword and slashed at the Six-Tails Jinchuriki, then swung his left-hand giant hammer and slammed it hard on the back of the sword.
The beast's battle instinct made the Six-Tails Jinchuriki feel danger. It quickly changed its form. The dark red Chakra instantly turned blue-purple, and the Chakra nature also changed, with highly corrosive Chakra dissolving a small portion of Nuibari's wire in the blink of an eye, and the control was also released.
Kurare Kushimaru felt extremely distressed. The ninja sword had suffered partial damage on their first mission. He was afraid he wouldn't have a good time after returning to the village when the mission ended.
The Six-Tails Jinchuriki, having broken free from the restraints, opened its mouth towards Torune Aburame, who was holding the Blunt Sword, Kabutowari, and released a concentrated blast of strong acid. Fortunately, Suikazan Fuguki was quick-witted and fast-handed, using Samehada to shave off most of the Chakra contained within, allowing Torune Aburame to only suffer a minor injury.
Otherwise, with this intensity comparable to or even surpassing Boil Release, Torune Aburame might have become the first of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen to fall, staging a wave of "dying before accomplishing his mission."
However, Suikazan Fuguki wasn't in a much better state. The highly corrosive Chakra made Samehada tremble violently. Suikazan Fuguki spent a great deal of effort but still couldn't appease Samehada, who had entered a state of self-isolation after taking a bite of "sulfuric acid."
The Six-Tails Jinchuriki swung its fist, delivering a heavy blow towards the wide-open Suikazan Fuguki. Suikazan Fuguki was unexpectedly directly sent flying, his chest caving in from the impact.
At this moment, Samehada, who had finally recovered, hurriedly channeled Chakra into Suikazan Fuguki to heal him.
However, Kurare Kushimaru's long-prepared move finally completed at this opportunity. He clasped his hands together, forming the Snake Seal, while shouting loudly, "Jinpachi!"
Torune Aburame, Jūzō Biwa, and Jinpachi Munashi, who were still fighting the Six-Tails Jinchuriki, heard Kurare Kushimaru's shout. Having trained together for a period of time, the group instantly understood his meaning and quickly began to retreat.
Seeing that the others had retreated, Kurare Kushimaru grabbed the remaining wire of Nuibari and pulled hard. The transparent Nuibari threads emerged from the ground in a chessboard pattern, covering the area around the Six-Tails Jinchuriki.
"Long Sword Ninjutsu: Earth Spider Sewing!"
Although it couldn't exert its original effect of cutting off both legs by using the intersection of horizontal and vertical lines, it could still restrict and slow down the Six-Tails Jinchuriki's movements.
Jinpachi Munashi, who had already retreated to Kurare Kushimaru's side, vigorously swung the Exploding Sword, Shibuki, in his hand towards the Six-Tails Jinchuriki's position. A long scroll full of exploding tags flew out from the Exploding Sword.
"Exploding Sword Ninjutsu: Exploding Breakthrough of Heavy Death!"
The scroll surrounded the Six-Tails Jinchuriki, whose speed had decreased, in an airtight manner, and then exploded violently.
Kurare Kushimaru looked at the tremendous power of this combined technique of his and Jinpachi Munashi's, and a satisfied smile couldn't help but appear on his face behind the mask.
"Careful!" At this moment, Kiyoshi's reminder came from behind. In Kiyoshi's senses, the Six-Tails Jinchuriki in the center of the explosion's smoke hadn't weakened at all. Instead, a destructive Chakra aura was rapidly gathering.
The smoke dissipated, and the Six-Tails Jinchuriki appeared in everyone's sight. The Chakra cloak on its body had transformed back into dark red, but the pupils of Kurare Kushimaru and the other three standing not far from the Six-Tails Jinchuriki couldn't help but shrink sharply.
The great explosion had indeed affected the Six-Tails Jinchuriki. The tailed beast Chakra on its body had become very thin under the bombardment of the explosion. However, the Jinchuriki, having fallen into a berserk state, wouldn't care about its own condition at all. Instinct continuously drove it to destroy everything it saw.
And what frightened the group was the purplish-black Chakra ball floating not far away in front of the Six-Tails Jinchuriki's mouth.
"Tailed Beast Ball!"
Even with Kiyoshi's reminder, they were not too far from the Six-Tails Jinchuriki, so although they reacted, it was already too late to dodge.
The Tailed Beast Ball was fired extremely fast, arriving in front of the group in the blink of an eye.
