Land of Earth, a primeval forest to the north.
Developed by Hidden Rock Village, this area has driven away all the beasts, turning it into a temporary resting place for their ninjas.
This is the site of the Four-Tails' rebirth, and signs of its presence have already been discovered here by Hidden Rock Village—an enormous active volcano. The surroundings are exceptionally good, ideal for both the Four-Tails and great apes.
One day, the Hidden Rock ninjas gathered here because the Eight-Tails from Hidden Cloud Village had arrived.
"It's just ahead, and based on our judgment, the volcano ahead is where the Four-Tails resides, and there's a stele here, probably left a long time ago, called Huaguo Mountain."
Kitsuchi said to Killer Bee and the Hidden Cloud ninjas, and then led them a little further ahead.
The Hidden Rock ninjas received information that there has been a significant convergence of Chakra near Huaguo Mountain, clearly indicating the rebirth of a Tailed Beast. Thus, Kitsuchi personally brought Killer Bee here, hoping the Eight-Tails within him could persuade the Four-Tails.
"Lord Kitsuchi, the Chakra convergence ahead is accelerating."
A Hidden Rock ninja suddenly rushed over to report, and after he finished speaking, Killer Bee beside Kitsuchi also started rapping: "Eight-Tails has~ told me, Four-Tails, has been~ revived!"
"So fast, even sooner than estimated..."
Kitsuchi exclaimed in surprise, then turned to Killer Bee: "We're relying on you, if it doesn't work, we'll need to implement Plan B; we hope you can convey our sincerity from Hidden Rock Village, please."
Just a period during the Jinchuriki's time, passing through the current ordeal, and Hidden Rock Village will cease to capture the Four-Tails and Five-Tails. This is already a decision made by Onoki under pressure from other elders of Hidden Rock Village.
"I understand, I will make every effort to speak."
Killer Bee stopped rapping, understanding that the upcoming battle is crucial for the survival of both Hidden Rock Village and Hidden Cloud Village, and thus grew serious.
Upon reaching the entrance of a giant cave at Huaguo Mountain, Killer Bee then said to Kitsuchi: "We won't need so many people from here on, just you and a few others can accompany me inside."
"Alright."
Kitsuchi didn't object, allowing only two Jonin to accompany him and Killer Bee, heading into the cave.
The cave is extremely large, about sixty to seventy meters high, enough for Tailed Beast to move freely.
After walking for quite a while, as Kitsuchi and his companions began to feel increasingly hot, they passed through the cave and arrived at an even grander cavern.
"Huaguo Mountain!"
A sudden roar erupted in the cavern, followed by a surge of lava from the ground rapidly charging towards them.
"Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall!"
Kitsuchi reacted swiftly, quickly forming seals before spitting out Earth Release Chakra, transforming into a solid wall that blocked the lava from reaching them.
The lava collided with the earth wall and was pushed back.
"Damned humans!"
A gigantic red-haired ape appeared, throwing a massive punch when the lava was halted by the Earth Flow Wall.
BOOM!
The Earth Release Wall shattered with a punch, slamming into the ground, causing the cavern to tremble, dust and fragments falling from the cave ceiling.
"Wait, Sun Wukong!"
The enormous Octopus Gyuki emerged from Killer Bee's body, swinging two octopus tails to bind the Four-Tails aiming to continue its attack.
"We come with a mission!"
"What's there to talk about, Gyuki, you are already standing with humans, believing sealing us is the right thing to do.
I've already died once and have finally gained freedom, I refuse to be sealed again, Huaguo Mountain!"
After the Four-Tails finished speaking, it let out a loud roar, then with its other free hand, it hammered the ground, causing a surge of lava waves to gush up from underground.
"You damn....so hot, hot, hot!!!"
The Eight-Tails hurriedly released its grip on the Four-Tails' tails, leaping backwards.
"Earth Release: Earthquake Core!"
Kitsuchi again used a jutsu, creating a deep pit in the ground to let the lava flow into, then sealed it with Earth Release to stop the lava.
Having been attacked for no reason twice, Kitsuchi felt anger in his heart, then said to Eight-Tails: "How about we subdue the Four-Tails first, it's too aggressive."
"Hold on, once we start fighting, Sun Wukong will be even harder to talk to....one by one, they all have hot tempers."
Eight-Tails said with a bit of frustration, among the nine Tailed Beasts, Four-Tails' temper ranks third, aside from Kurama and Shukaku who often quarrel, Sun Wukong's temper is the worst.
Thinking of Killer Bee's request and the information gathered by Hidden Cloud, Eight-Tails suppressed its anger, dodged Four-Tails' lava attack again, and couldn't help but say: "Help me restrain him."
"No problem, Earth Release: Mountain Earth Jutsu!"
Kitsuchi responded, not holding back Chakra, pouring all refined Chakra into the jutsu, causing massive boulders to rise from the sides of Four-Tails, tightly squeezing it.
Seeing this, Four-Tails screamed sharply: "It's useless!"
Saying so, it retracted its tails with a swing, bursting Mountain Earth Jutsu with immense power; don't just look at how Four-Tails was killed by Godzilla's radiative flow, against other Ninja World attacks, killing a Tailed Beast is extremely difficult.
Not even the Ten-Tails' Tailed Beast Balls could kill Tailed Beasts, they could only break their tails.
