Swoosh! Swoosh!
The Water Whip, having changed direction, directly wrapped around Konan from behind.
Konan's eyebrows furrowed lightly. Breaking free from the Water Whip's binding in a short time was impossible.
Seeing the Water Whip successfully trap Konan, joy flashed across Suien's face, and a thought moved in his mind.
The Water Whip rapidly began to contract, pulling Konan down from the air.
Ninja Art: Water Sword!
Suien gave a light shout. A long sword completely composed of water rapidly condensed in Suien's hand.
You can't escape! Die!
Looking at Konan being rapidly pulled down, killing intent appeared on Suien's face.
He raised the sword in his hand and thrust it directly toward Konan's heart position.
Bound by the whip, Konan couldn't even make a resistance movement before Suien's incoming sword pierced directly through her heart position.
However, the moment the sword pierced Konan's body, the joy on Suien's face suddenly stiffened, then his complexion rapidly became ugly.
Through the sensation transmitted by the sword, Suien felt nothing like the sensation of piercing through a human body.
In other words, the bound Konan before him was fake.
Sure enough, in the next instant, Konan's body, pierced by the sword, began to rapidly crumble, transforming into sheets of paper.
Where is she?
Suien immediately tensed his body, desperately observing the surroundings.
Just then, a faint voice sounded from behind Suien.
Paper Lance!
Fresh blood directly sprayed out from Suien's body.
Lowering his head to see the Paper Lance piercing through from his back, disbelief appeared in Suien's eyes.
Intense pain flooded Suien's heart, causing Suien's body to tremble uncontrollably.
Suien clutched at his chest, where blood was constantly gushing out, his face carrying an unbelievable expression as he murmured:
"How is this possible, how could I still lose after using the Hero Water..."
Konan looked at Suien indifferently, extending a finger and making a light hooking motion.
The Paper Lance that had pierced Suien returned to Konan's hand, bringing up a trail of blood in the process.
Suien's body shook, and he directly fell to his knees.
"It seems that layer of chakra protection wasn't as hard as imagined."
Konan glanced at the blood on the Paper Lance and said indifferently.
"I won't lose! With the Hero Water, how could I possibly lose!!"
Suien, head lowered, his face full of unwillingness and anger, let out a roar.
Suien took out the transparent gourd from his bosom again and placed it to his mouth.
Seeing this scene, Konan not only didn't stop him but watched Suien calmly.
Just a dying struggle!
Anything that boosts one's chakra has limitations—the Hero Water is likely no exception.
However, Konan currently didn't know where the limit of this Takigakure "Hero Water" lay, or rather, what its side effects were.
Konan was somewhat interested in the "Hero Water," but with insufficient intelligence, if there were serious side effects, then no matter how much chakra it boosted, the item would be useless.
This was the main reason Konan hadn't snatched it away, and Suien before her now made a decent test subject.
And at this moment, compared to the light sip he took at the beginning, Suien now directly gulped down a large mouthful.
The moment the Hero Water was swallowed again, Suien suddenly raised his head and let out a wild roar.
A terrifying aura rose from Suien's body, massive amounts of chakra constantly surging out.
The deep blue chakra originally enveloping Suien actually began to slowly deepen at this moment, starting to transform toward dark red chakra.
Simultaneously, the massive wound on Suien's stomach actually began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye under the effect of this chakra.
Violent chakra filled the surroundings, and for a time, even the air around became somewhat oppressive.
Although Suien made no movement at this moment, centered on Suien, strong gales continuously erupted toward the surroundings.
"Such massive chakra shouldn't be without consequence,"
For the first time, a grave expression appeared on Konan's face, her eyes carrying a cautious gaze as she looked toward Suien.
Konan could clearly feel that the intensity of chakra erupting from Suien's body at this moment had far exceeded the upper limit Suien's body could bear.
Under normal circumstances, Suien should have been burst apart by this massive chakra by now.
But now, Suien's body actually showed no major effects.
Meanwhile.
Fu, who had been continuously bombarding Yuto, slowly stopped at this moment.
Massive amounts of dust covered everything before her.
Fu panted a few times, her body involuntarily relaxing. Those wild attacks just now should have all hit the opponent.
Under such intense attacks, Fu didn't believe any ninja could withstand them.
Just then, that terrifying chakra erupting from Suien's body also appeared in Fu's perception.
This chakra!
Fu suddenly turned her head toward Suien's direction, an expression of shock and anger appearing on her face:
"That Suien guy actually tricked me—he wasn't unconscious at all."
"Damn it, Suien has probably already taken the Hero Water now, and there's still that Kirigakure ninja. In that case, I'll take them all out together!"
Thinking this, Fu crouched slightly, then like a spring, directly charged toward the direction of Konan and Suien.
However, Fu hadn't taken two steps before she felt a heavy force coming from her head.
Accompanied by a thunderous roar.
Fu's entire upper body was directly smashed into the ground.
"Where do you think you're going?"
Yuto, one foot stepping on Fu's head position, said indifferently.
ROAR!!
A massive roar came from beneath Yuto's foot, and Fu's six tails simultaneously attacked toward Yuto.
Yuto suddenly reached out and grabbed one of the tails whipping toward him.
Then, with a forceful wrist motion, he directly pulled Fu out from underground.
Yuto grabbed the tail with one hand, continuously smashing her against the ground.
For a time, Fu became like a punching bag.
After being smashed dozens of times, Fu also reacted from her dazed state and quickly controlled the chakra within her body, spraying large amounts of yellow powder toward the outside.
The moment these powders appeared, they rapidly filled the surroundings, and simultaneously, a pungent smell entered Yuto's nose.
Yuto wrinkled his nose, released his grip on Fu, and simultaneously retreated backward, leaving the area covered by the powder.
The instant Yuto released his grip, Fu quickly turned and jumped backward, her face full of disbelief.
Facing her full-power attacks in a partial-tailed beast state, the man before her had taken no damage at all.
And the movement of pulling her up barehanded just now made a look of surprise flash in Fu's eyes.
The guy before her was simply a monster!
"It should end soon. I bear no ill will toward your Takigakure."
Yuto spread his hands and said to Fu.
Hearing Yuto's words, Fu's expression remained unchanged—she didn't believe what ninja from the great villages said.
This young man's strength was formidable. So far, he was the strongest ninja Fu had ever encountered. Even the former leader couldn't compare to this youth.
After all, this was the first time she'd encountered a ninja who fought a Jinchūriki barehanded without using ninjutsu.
"This guy, he's actually so rough with a girl."
Fu gently rubbed her still-aching head, muttering softly in complaint.
Seven-Tails Wing!
In an instant, the seven tails constantly swaying behind Fu began to contract.
Simultaneously, at Fu's back position, several pairs of wings completely composed of chakra rapidly grew out.
After growing these multiple wings, Fu's figure flashed, her entire body transforming into a red streak that rapidly vanished.
Originally already extremely fast, in this state, her speed increased several times over.
In an instant, Fu appeared behind Yuto.
Chikake Bite!
This was a unique ability of the Seven-Tails—the terrifying attack power instantly erupted on Yuto's back.
BOOM!
A massive thunderous explosion instantly rang out, terrifying shockwaves scattering in all directions, kicking up a large cloud of dust.
Fu's face was full of disbelief as she looked at Yuto, who had blocked her with just one hand against her head.
This was impossible!
These four characters directly appeared in Fu's mind.
Then, when Fu saw the sudden smile on the youth's face before her, her body trembled, and she quickly prepared to retreat.
"I told you, it's time to end."
Looking at Fu who wanted to escape, a thought moved in Yuto's mind, and several Adamantine Sealing Chains directly surged out from within Yuto's body, rapidly wrapping around Fu.
"Damn it!"
Fu let out an unwilling roar, struggling desperately, wanting to break free from the Adamantine Sealing Chains' binding.
In this state, the tailed-beastified Fu directly opened her mouth, dense chakra beginning to gather at Fu's mouth, rapidly forming a sphere of chakra.
Tailed Beast Ball!
Just as Fu wanted to fire the Tailed Beast Ball directly at Yuto.
Yuto walked calmly to the struggling Fu, raised one finger, and in Fu's disbelieving gaze, tapped the Tailed Beast Ball she was preparing to fire.
In the next moment, the Tailed Beast Ball gathering in Fu's mouth vanished at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Not vanished!
It was being absorbed by this guy!
Fu was completely stunned, even her struggling movements stopping for a moment.
After Yuto finished absorbing the Tailed Beast Ball, he raised his palm again and placed it on Fu's head.
In the next instant, Fu felt the chakra within her body rapidly disappearing.
And Fu, who had been maintaining her tailed beast state, also slowly began to recede.
Seven tails... four tails... one tail.
At this moment, within Fu's mental world.
The Seven-Tails, Chōmei, suddenly stood up. His originally calm emotions rarely showed fluctuations.
What on earth was going on?
Had this girl Fu encountered some terrifying enemy?
Just as Chōmei was about to pour his chakra into Fu's body again, a teasing voice suddenly sounded in Chōmei's mind.
"Yo, Chōmei, long time no see."
"This voice is... Isobu, you bastard."
Chōmei was slightly stunned, then spoke with an exceptionally displeased voice.
Outside.
Under Yuto's powerful absorption, Fu directly exited her tailed beast state.
"You're much cuter in this state."
Yuto looked at the blue-green-haired girl before him, who was staring at him with a puffed-up expression, and said indifferently.
