"These are the Sage of the Six Paths' ninja tools! They're insanely powerful, but they also burn through a ton of chakra. No one but us brothers can even use them!"
As Kinaku boasted, Kazama whipped out the Shichiseisen (Seven Star Fan) and unleashed a barrage of wind, lightning, water, fire, and earth attacks.
The onslaught obliterated Kinaku and the just-reformed Ginkaku, reducing them to ash once again.
"Didn't you say no one else could use it? So why can I?"
"You bastard!"
Kinaku and Ginkaku couldn't believe their eyes—Kazama was wielding the Shichiseisen with ease.
"Kid, you're full of surprises, but with your strength, you can probably only use it once. I don't buy that you can keep it up!"
Before they could finish, Kazama swung the Shichiseisen again and again, annihilating the brothers dozens of times over.
Seeing Kazama casually spam the Shichiseisen, Kinaku and Ginkaku's jaws dropped. Even they couldn't use it repeatedly like that—the fan demanded an obscene amount of chakra.
"Oh, forgot to mention—I've got infinite chakra!"
As he spoke, Kazama activated Tenshuryoku (Heavenly Hand Power) and teleported behind Ginkaku in a flash.
"Ginkaku, watch out!"
Kinaku shouted desperately, but Kazama, boosted by Tenshuryoku, was just too fast. In the blink of an eye, he sliced off both of Ginkaku's arms.
The Zanreiken (Spirit-Severing Sword) and Shichiseiken (Purple-Gold Gourd) naturally fell into Kazama's hands.
Now holding all four of the Sage of the Six Paths' ninja tools, Kazama was done wasting time with the brothers.
He used the Kōkinjō (Golden Canopy Rope) and Zanreiken in tandem, sucking Ginkaku into the Shichiseiken.
"Next up, you!"
Kazama turned to Kinaku.
"So, you gonna let me suck you into the gourd willingly, or do I have to beat you half to death first?"
Hearing Kazama's taunt and seeing his brother Ginkaku trapped in the gourd, Kinaku exploded with rage, practically shaking with fury.
A crimson Bijū cloak flared around his body.
"Kazama, be careful! Kinaku ate Kurama's flesh back in the day—he's got some of the Nine-Tails' chakra!"
The Raikage, watching from the side, shouted a warning.
But he forgot that Kazama didn't even flinch facing the real Kurama. Why would he care about Kinaku's knockoff version?
"Now that Kurama's chakra is coating my entire body, the Kōkinjō can't touch me, so it's useless! Dream on if you think you can suck me into that gourd!"
With a furious roar, Kinaku's Bijū-transformed body lunged at Kazama.
"Punk, I'm gonna tear you to shreds for killing Ginkaku!"
"Kill me? Maybe in your next life!"
Facing Kinaku's full-powered Bijū strike, Kazama blocked it effortlessly with one hand.
"You've got some monstrous strength too?!"
Feeling Kazama's overwhelming power, Kinaku was stunned again.
"It's not just strength. My techniques cover everything—Gakidō (Preta Path)!"
Kazama smirked coldly, absorbing all of Kinaku's Kurama chakra in an instant.
Before Kinaku could react, Kazama bound him with the Kōkinjō, severed his Kotodama with the Zanreiken, and sucked him into the Shichiseiken.
Watching Kazama dispatch Kinaku and Ginkaku so effortlessly, the Raikage felt like a total failure in comparison.
"This Kazama kid is something else. Even Kinaku and Ginkaku didn't stand a chance!"
Yakushi Kabuto, observing from the shadows, let out a cold chuckle.
