After a period of chaos, the audience finally quieted down.
The villagers of Kumogakure looked at each other. For a moment, they were all speechless.
The Kage of the smaller ninja villages all broke out in cold sweat.
Is this even human?
"Next, the disciple of Konoha's Hiruzen will face Kumogakure's Bee." Samui's indifferent voice spread throughout the arena.
Although her voice lacked enthusiasm, it ignited the entire crowd.
"Bee-sama! Go for it!"
"Bee-sama! Give him a good beating!"
The thunderous cheers, like a mountain tsunami, could even be faintly heard by Shinji at the foot of the mountain.
He couldn't help but twitch his lips. They're really holding a grudge.
Didn't I just beat up your Eight-Tails Jinchuriki? Do you need to remember it for so long?
However—
Shinji looked towards the entrance at the foot of the mountain, where a person was approaching.
Tap—
With a step, Bee's figure appeared before Shinji.
"Yo, Konoha brat, this time I, your big brother, will wash away the past disgrace."
"And teach you to rhyme~ Fool~ Bastard!"
Shinji's haori flapped loudly in the wind. He looked at Bee and couldn't help but tilt his head and ask, "I heard you isolated the entire village?"
"Gah—"
Bee instantly looked dumbfounded, his eyes behind his sunglasses blinking involuntarily.
These words were broadcast to everyone present via the screen.
Even A, who was halfway up the mountain, was startled and looked at Samui beside him, asking, "What does that mean?"
Samui initially didn't understand what was happening, but then she looked at Shinji on the screen in disbelief.
This guy!
Where did he get that information?!
Meanwhile, A, a bit impatient, asked again, as he should have guessed it from Samui's expression.
"Raikage-sama, think about what Bee-sensei did when he was a child." Samui said with some difficulty.
"What he did as a child?" A couldn't quite process it for a moment.
Bee wasn't strange when he was a child, was he?
On the other hand, Mabui's expression stiffened the moment she heard Samui say that.
"Rap—"
Seeing that her Raikage still hadn't caught on, Samui had no choice but to say it.
"Uh—"
Instantly, A looked as if he had been choked, his entire face slowly turning red.
Hiruzen beside him watched curiously, unsure what riddle the Kumogakure people were playing.
"You! How dare you question rap!"
Bee, prompted by Eight-Tails within him, instantly realized what Shinji was referring to.
Whoosh—
Seven blades instantly unsheathed and charged straight at Shinji.
Boom—
With a burst of Chakra, the ground instantly cracked. Bee transformed into a blue afterimage, rushing towards Shinji.
The cold gleam of the seven blades, like venomous snakes, twisted towards Shinji's vital points.
Lariat!
Yang Release Chakra Armor—Cover!
Shinji's hands were instantly covered with a layer of dark gray substance. With a surge of Chakra, he sidestepped, avoiding the blade aimed at his throat.
A whip kick, covered in Yang Release Chakra Armor, struck Bee's ribs.
Bang!
A massive wave of air exploded, turning the surrounding rubble into dust. Bee was knocked back. As he flipped back and retreated, three crimson Tailed Beast Chakra tentacles burst from his tailbone, tearing through his clothes. Their speed was so great that they ripped through the air, lashing out at Shinji.
Shinji lightly tapped his foot and retreated. As he raised his hands, two Rasengan had already appeared in his palms.
Rasengan—Double Shot!
In an instant, the two Rasengan shot out of his hands, colliding with Bee's Tailed Beast Chakra tentacles.
Boom!
The clash of Chakra caused another explosion of air. Bee took the opportunity to launch an attack.
Since returning last time, he had been continuously training. Even for Lightning Release Ninjutsu, which he hadn't practiced much, he had his brother find someone to guide him.
All so that when he encountered Shinji again, he wouldn't be caught off guard.
Lightning Release: False Darkness!
Moving at high speed, Bee instantly formed a hand seal with one hand. In an instant, a massive bolt of lightning, like divine punishment, struck towards Shinji.
Seeing the lightning before him, Shinji didn't want to waste Yang Chakra to defend against it. His fingers rapidly moved, then he slammed his palms onto the ground.
Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall!
The surging Chakra injected into the ground instantly triggered geological changes, and a massive rock barrier instantly rose from the earth.
The lightning Bee unleashed struck it, sending gravel flying.
A huge roar exploded, and smoke and dust filled the air. Shinji, with a light jump, instantly left his original position.
The next moment, several dark red octopus tentacles, like venomous snakes, broke through the sand and dust, coiling around the spot where Shinji had just been.
"Oh? He dodged?"
"This kid is really not simple, fool~ bastard~!"
Although Bee said this, not expecting Shinji to be able to dodge, his tone became serious.
"Bee, be careful! He still hasn't used that Ninjutsu from last time!"
"Ah! I know, fool~ bastard~!"
Bee naturally knew that no matter the reason last time, ultimately, he had been defeated by Shinji's move. So, from the start of the match until now, he had been constantly on guard, expecting Shinji to use that Ninjutsu again. However, Shinji seemed to have no such intention at all.
Shinji, who had leaped into the air, opened his eyes, his irises already transformed into cat-eye patterns.
Oborozuki Sage Mode: Activate!
The screen clearly recorded Shinji's transformation process.
Ōnoki, A, and Rasa all narrowed their eyes slightly.
This Ninjutsu!
In Oborozuki Sage Mode, Shinji's perception became even clearer. Bee's high-speed movements were especially clear under his perception. With a smirk, he took the initiative to attack.
Slightly condensing a cloud in the air, Shinji used it as a stepping stone, and his entire body instantly shot towards Bee.
A punch, further covered in Yang Release Chakra Armor on top of Sage Mode, struck towards Bee with a piercing whoosh.
"Bee! Watch out!" Gyuki, with its Chakra tentacles on the outside, instantly detected Shinji coming towards them.
"Good timing!"
Bee, warned by Eight-Tails, reacted instantly.
Lightning Chakra instantly covered his elbow, and he met the approaching Shinji.
Boom—!!
The moment of impact triggered a small-scale air explosion. The ground beneath Bee's feet instantly cracked and collapsed. With this strike, Shinji gained the advantage. Bee felt his arm become excessively numb.
This Konoha brat!
He actually directly countered him in terms of strength.
