"In terms of pure offensive power, this guy's burst of power is almost comparable to B's Tailed Beast Ball!" A stared ahead, his voice filled with disbelief. "Damn it! Is there no limit to this bastard's improvement at all?"
Thick streams of visible chakra began surging out from beneath the rubble at the end of the ravine.
Then, all the broken rocks covering Hozuki Nagare were blasted away, and an ultra-gigantic slug crawled out.
Seeing this, the Mist Village ninja didn't feel relieved but shocked instead.
"Shit! Lord Nagare has gone berserk!"
"Hurry up and inform Mizukage-sama!"
"Even if he does transform into his Complete Form, can we really defeat such a monster?"
They couldn't help feeling pessimistic—the suppressing force exerted by Seiki Shimaseki was just too overwhelming. In only several minutes on the battlefield, he had gravely wounded Lord Nagare, forcing him into his final form.
In their eyes, even the Six-Tails in its ultimate state probably wouldn't have much chance of victory.
The massive slug slithered across the battlefield, moving surprisingly fast for its colossal size.
"Six tails on a slug, huh?" Shimaseki said with interest as he watched the charging Saiken, then bit his finger open to form a blood contract.
[Gamaden Hakai no Jutsu]!
"With Sage Chakra as the offering—especially one this massive—what kind of sized slug will appear?"
Unlike Mount Myoboku or Ryuchi Cave, the maximum size of summoned slugs here was measured against the scale of the Sage Lady Katsuyu herself.
This meant that as long as the sacrificial chakra supply was sufficient and potent enough, he could potentially summon a colossal beast far surpassing even Gamabunta or Manda in sheer size.
In the next moment, a gargantuan slug whose body stretched beyond sight slammed straight down upon the Six-Tails mid-advance.
Boom!
It felt like an earthquake, with terrifying pressure sending violent tremors through the earth.
Gamabunta stared at the monstrous slug—three times his own size—and swallowed a string of curses rising in his throat. "Is this brat actually a reincarnation of the Sage of Six Paths? His chakra's just way too powerful—he managed to summon a slug lord of this level!"
Jiraiya watched with envious eyes, patting Gamabunta's head as he spoke, "Boss Toad, you really should eat more! Just look how big someone else's slug is!"
Gamabunta wore an expression of disgust usually reserved for humans upon his toad face. "If I were really that gigantic, do you think your chakra would still be enough to summon me?"
Jiraiya froze, blinking stupidly—come to think of it, summoning something that large would absolutely drain him dry!
Dammit! So having endless chakra really did let you do whatever the hell you wanted!
This unprecedented-sized slug, dwarfing even tailed beasts, delivered such a visually overwhelming shockwave that many Hidden Cloud and Hidden Mist ninja felt their hearts quiver.
"Please tell me we're joking right now?! What kind of monster-level creature is this?!"
"I say we run for it already! This thing doesn't even need to attack—one single roll on the ground would crush us flat!"
Back on the battlefield...
It looked exactly like an epic battle between titanic ancient beasts; each casual roll or twist of Saiken's and the giant slug's enormous bodies sent shockwaves rippling through the land.
Size equaled strength, especially when both creatures belonged to the same species category—Saiken found himself entirely overpowered in terms of brute force.

Within just a few exchanges, Saiken was already pinned beneath Katsuyu.
However, what truly makes the tailed beasts fearsome isn't just their size — it's the immense chakra they wield.
A dense, dark-hued energy sphere began taking shape in Saiken's mouth, radiating an aura so terrifying that even Katsuyu trembled.
Seiki naturally wouldn't allow the enemy to attack his summon unchallenged. The moment the Tailed Beast Ball launched, he altered its trajectory using Flying Thunder God.
Then, before the astonished eyes of the Mist ninjas, the ball tore through the battlefield with unstoppable force, hurtling straight toward them.
"Run for your lives!"
"Don't cluster together! Scatter!"
Even though the Mist ninjas had spread out quite a bit, they still suffered heavy casualties under the wide range of the Tailed Beast Ball.
Under normal conditions, Hozuki Nagare would have stopped firing after seeing the devastation caused by the first blast.
But his consciousness had long since gone berserk, and he instinctively kept firing Tailed Beast Balls at the Katsuyu pinning him down.
Seeing the second Tailed Beast Ball gradually forming, Dodai from the Cloud Village wisely shouted, "We should also scatter! Don't stay grouped together!"
The Cloud ninjas' hearts tightened in alarm, and they quickly scattered in all directions.
Sure enough, the second Tailed Beast Ball immediately flew toward them after formation.
Because they'd scattered early, this second Tailed Beast Ball didn't hit as hard as the first. Still, it enraged Raikage A greatly.
"Damn idiotic Mist ninja! If you can't control yourself, stop trying to copy B and use Complete Form!"
After the second came a third, then a fourth — all redirected by Seiki and exploding among the two sides, bringing endless torment to both armies.
Apparently realizing he was working for free against Seiki, Saiken growled furiously and sprayed corrosive acid solution from its mouth.
However, before the acidic liquid could approach Seiki, the slug beneath his feet devoured it whole.
Witnessing this spectacle, even the frenzied Six-Tails momentarily seemed bewildered.
"How come the enemy looks more like a tailed beast than I do?"
"He's using his summon to counter my raw power and Boil Release — his chakra control is sloppy, barely controlled at best... Yet he's making full use of even such clumsy attacks as the Tailed Beast Ball!" A sighed inwardly, mentally declaring Hozuki Nagare doomed: "He's being crushed on every front — this idiot has no chance of winning!"
As this thought crossed his mind, he couldn't help contemplating retreat.
If he didn't flee now, did he plan to wait until this opponent defeated Six-Tails and joined forces with Jiraiya to fight him?
Standing atop Katsuyu, Seiki suddenly furrowed his brows ever so slightly.
Through Sage Mode's perception, an extremely powerful chakra was rapidly approaching.
"I've experienced Raikage's and B's chakra before. This chakra feels completely different yet equally mighty... Is it Mizukage?"
A faint smile curved Seiki's lips upward as he took out a scroll and forcibly initiated the seal!
[Eight Trigrams Sealing Style!]
Above Seiki, a grand golden Eight Trigrams image rotated continuously. Beneath it, Saiken roared painfully and struggled desperately.
In truth, sealing Six-Tails right now was still premature given its current condition.
Yet due to the sheer impact he'd already made and the seal's dramatic visual effect, everyone instinctively believed that Six-Tails was truly about to be sealed away.
"Eight Trigrams Sealing Style?" Jiraiya wasn't surprised that Seiki would use such an advanced sealing technique. What puzzled him was why the Eight Trigrams Sealing Style had caused so much commotion this time?
If even he couldn't see through it, then naturally the Mist ninjas were terrified.
"We're doomed! Lord Nagare is going to get sealed!"
"The Six-Tails Jinchuriki is one of our key assets. If he gets sealed, our village won't have the same clout anymore!"
"Hurry and stop him!"
"Are you kidding? Even though he's occupied, we still can't get close to his summoned beast!"
Hearing these voices, Mizukage quickly arrived at the scene and, upon seeing what was happening, unleashed her strongest offensive jutsu without hesitation.
[Water Release: High-Pressure Water Blade!]
Her target wasn't Seiki, but rather the restrained Six-Tails Saiken.
From such a long distance away, considering Seiki's small size and reputedly strong sensor abilities, the chances of hitting him were practically next to nothing.
Relatively speaking, the massive Six-Tails Saiken that couldn't move was much easier to hit.
Six-Tails Saiken was using its full strength to resist Seiki's sealing when suddenly a water blade came slicing toward it—and from Mizukage herself, her strongest attack at that. Under these circumstances, there was no way it could resist.
With a loud crack—
Half the body of Saiken was severed. That portion got sealed into the scroll, while the remaining part successfully "escaped by shedding its tail."
"Huuuh, just in time!"
Mizukage let out a relieved sigh, then met Six-Tails Saiken's gaze filled with ruthless killing intent.
Saiken: (▼皿▼#)
Mizukage: (??.??)
