Chapter 580: Ten-tails Vs the Allied Force Part-3
Rumble… rumble…
Suddenly, the ground on the battlefield trembles. The Kages and the rest of the shinobi warily glance at their surroundings for an unexpected move.
"However, all of your efforts are useless!"
Madara nonchalantly glances at their panicked expression while blocking a wooden spear attack from Tsunade.
Bang…
With multiple explosions, several massive tails erupt from the ground.
"Everyone, move!"
The sensor shinobis immediately issued a warning.
Boom…
A massive pillar of energy rises from the ground. The pillar destroys the formation laid down by the joint efforts of the Kages. The powerful beam of energy penetrates the sky and destroys the layer of clouds.
ROOOAR…
With another roar, a humongous figure jumps out of the ground. A cloud of dust and smoke covers the entire battlefield.
"It's the ten-tails! It's free from the restrictions."
Onoki floats in the air and surveys the situation.
Swish… swish…
The ten-tail swings its tails and produces a powerful wind current that sweeps the entire area.
"It's done!"
Obito, who was sitting atop the ten-tails, slowly opens his eyes.
Blub… Blub…
Suddenly, several powerful ripples and fluctuations spread across the secondary water sphere generated by the ten-tail's presence in the HQ.
"Ao, what's the matter? What's happening?"
The members of the logistics team turn to Inoichi.
"The ten-tails…. Something is happening to it?"
Inoichi swiftly informs the shinobi on the battlefield.
GAH… BLEUGH….
Suddenly, ten-tail's body bloats like a balloon. It rapidly expands to five times its previous size. The massive tails of the ten-tails flail around and strike the ground randomly. Each strike creates a powerful shockwave and destroys a mountain in the distance.
"Everyone, take cover!"
Onoki and the few elite shinobis from Iwagakure create several rock walls to block the shockwaves. The force of the shockwaves knocks the rock walls like dominoes.
"Attack the ten-tails from a distance! We must stop it from transforming!" Sakumo issues a command.
"Imperial Sand Funeral,"
"Gold Imperial Sand Funeral,"
"Lava Release: Chaos Meteor,"
"Particle Style: Mass Extinction Ray,"
"Lightning Release: Purple lightning Maelstrom,"
"Seventh Gate: Hirudora,"
….
…
…
Gaara, Raasa, Mei, Onoki, Kakashi, Guy, and several other shinobis release their most powerful attacks from a distance.
A powerful surge of energy covers the battlefield and overwhelms the massive figure of the ten-tails. The ten-tails cover its body with its tails to protect itself. The massive figure of the ten-tails topples and falls on its back.
The combination of so many powerful techniques destroys most of the ten-tail's back.
"Hmm… Incredible!" Madara praises their attempt.
"Several such powerful techniques would overwhelm even me."
"All those techniques and we could only damage the tails." The shinobis glances at the ten-tails in shock.
MEHHHEHHEE…
The ten-tail releases a goat-like bleak and stands up. The massive conch-like shell on its body morphs into armor. Leaf-like bud around its tails slowly unfurl to reveal ten massive wooden hands.
The Ten-Tail takes on the shape of an emaciated humanoid figure with elongated limbs with a twisted pattern around its neck. It also grows two visible hind legs and two front hands. The ten-tails use its right arm to stand. Its left arm is missing from the elbow down, evaporated by the previous combined attacks of the several shinobis. The ten-tail's head has a more human-like feature with a massive red Rinne-Sharingan with seven tomoes in its eye. It also grew a pair of ears with the left ear barely hanging from its head after the previous explosion.
ROOOAR…
The ten-tails release a pained roar, exposing its straight teeth with a single triangular nostril appearing above it. Several horns form on the various parts of its head: two above each side of its face, two beneath its eye, and another below its ear. The horns on the left side are deformed or destroyed.
The singular eye of the ten-tails flickers around, burning the image of all shinobis in its piercing gaze.
"Time to test the power of the current ten-tails!" Obito makes a hand seal.
The ten-tails open its mouth and gather a large amount of red and black-tailed beast chakra around its mouth.
"That's a Biju bomb!" Naruto grits his teeth in frustration.
"Kurama, how long will it take?" He urges Kurama.
"I can't help it. I still need three more minutes." Kurama shakes his head with a grim expression.
SHOOM…
The ten-tails charge a massive tailed beast bomb that's the size of its head, which is already five times the size of any tailed beast. The tailed beast bomb turns into a cone due to the high concentration of chakra. It turns its gaze towards the five Kages and gets ready to release the tailed beast bomb.
Fwoosh…
HAAH…
Onoki slams his palm on the ground at the last moment, creating an earth pedestal underneath ten-tails feet. The ten-tail stumbles on the rock pedestal and misses its target.
The tailed beast bomb flies overhead and drops into the ocean in the distance.
BOOOOM…
It explodes into a massive spherical explosion that eclipses everything in their vision.
Rumble… Rumble…
Powerful shockwaves spread across the battlefield, tearing down the ground and generating massive tidal waves of over a hundred meters in height.
"It's wobbly from just that little pebble. Looks like Obito is still struggling a bit to control the ten-tail. Well, I can't blame him for that. It requires a huge willpower and spirituality to control the beast."
Madara slices the neck of the wooden dragon launched by Tsunade.
HAAH…
Tsunade also punches the chakra sword and shatters it into bits and fragments.
BOOM…
It launches another massive-tailed beast bomb that crosses the continent and strikes a distant place.
"W-what Incredible range?" The eyes of a Hyuga elder widen in shock.
"Unbelievable! Such a far-off city, destroyed in an instant."
The previous attack reaped thousands of lives in an entire city within seconds. Only the burning traces of smoke, lava, and fire remain of what was once a prosperous city.
BANG…
The ten-tails slam its palm on the ground and destroy another chunk of the ground. A few, unfortunate shinobis are unable to escape the attack and are squashed to death.
Swish…
Sakumo swiftly jumps in front of another ground and swings his sword in succession, creating several white blade auras. His attacks destroy the fingers of one of the ten-tail's wooden hands.
"Everyone, fall back!" Sakumo grabs two elite shinobis from Konoha and Iwagakure and retreats.
"The ten-tail… It's acting strange for a while. It seems to be targeting something far away!" Ao reports the status of the ten-tail.
"So, all the cities, towns, and hidden villages and their people are in its range?"
"Then that means the evacuated feudal lords and everyone protecting the village. None of them are safe?" Inoichi grits his teeth in frustration.
"Our shinobis are fighting on the battlefield to protect everyone else… and yet, these two are trying to eliminate our reason for fighting this war. Quickly inform the hidden villages to activate the barrier of their villages." Shikaku issues a command.
"Found it!"
A gleam flashes across Obito's eyes. The ten-tail body regains the balance and adjusts its target. It charges up, aims, and fires another tailed beast bomb in the distance.
"That's the…" Panic flickers across the eyes of the shinobis on the battlefield.
"Ah! This is…" Sweat trickles down Ao's forehead.
"What's the matter, Lord Ao?" Shikaku enquires with worry. He notices Ao's expression and immediately concludes.
"So, that's what it was aiming for?" Shikaku sighs.
"We can only leave all our hopes on the barrier erected by Lady Kushina."
"Barrier team, focus all your attention on strengthening the barrier. Everyone else, brace for the impact!"
-------------
Ah…
Both Mito and Kushina gasps at the same time. Even Tobirama frowns and glances in a direction.
"This feeling… this chakra! Something seems off about the ten-tails." He remarks.
Only Hashirama and Hiruzen glance at each other and scratch their head in confusion.
Suddenly,
Rumble… Rumble…
A massive explosion appears on the horizon. Powerful shockwaves travel through the forest, uprooting several trees.
HAAH…
Hashirama claps his hands and creates a wood dome to protect everyone.
"What was that?"
"D-destroyed! A huge city with a population of several thousand people, destroyed in an instant." Mito stares toward the explosion with wide eyes.
"What?" Hashirama and Hiruzen's eyes narrow.
"We have to hurry to the battlefield. We can't let that beast run amok for another moment or else there won't be anything left to protect by the time we reach the battlefield."
"Everyone, with us!"
Itachi and Sasuke glance at each other.
"SUSANOO!"
Both of them create their Complete Susanoo.
"Hmm… Susanoo?! It's been a while since I last a Complete Susanoo like this. Looks like Uchiha has progressed a lot in these years." Tobirama remarks and walks towards Itachi.
"Itachi… Sasuke… Sigh… both of you have grown to such an extent. I was a fool to believe Danzo." Hiruzen reminisces.
Mito and Hashirama fly with Sasuke, while Tobirama and Hiruzen join Itachi.
"Hmm… Hiruzen, what do you mean by your earlier words?" Tobirama inquires.
