Chapter 659 - Chapter 393: Jigen Arrives

Upon hearing the alert from the ninja, the Five Kage and Uchiha Sasuke immediately rushed out from the place where the Ten-tailed was held.

Once outside, Uzumaki Naruto also locked onto the location of the massive chakra. He pointed in the direction to the right front and said, "Over there."

The six hurriedly ran forward and soon saw the 'source of the massive chakra' mentioned by the alert ninja's message.

It was a humanoid creature, clearly not human, neither in appearance nor with its tail; its skin was flowing like oil, almost surreal.

Moreover, the chakra of this humanoid creature was immense, causing even the Five Kage and Uchiha Sasuke to frown.

"Naruto, your focus has declined a lot, concentrate and perceive this guy properly!"

Uzumaki Naruto suddenly heard the voice of Kurama speaking within him, and he hurriedly replied in his heart, "What's going on? Kurama, do you know its origin?"

"Enough with the nonsense, focus and perceive it carefully!"

Upon hearing Kurama's words, Uzumaki Naruto immediately used the perception ability of Sage Mode. The result left him astonished!

"This, is this the Ten-tailed? No, wait, it's different, it seems to have consciousness?"

"That's right, it is the Ten-tailed, but for some reason, it now has its own consciousness, I don't know what tricks the Otsutsuki have played on it…"

Kurama spoke, being separated from the Ten-tailed, although not from this Ten-tailed here, the power of the Divine Tree originates from the same source, so Kurama can clearly sense the chakra of the Ten-tailed, and it resonates...

"Everyone, be careful, this creature before us is the Ten-tailed!"

Upon hearing Naruto's words, Uchiha Sasuke and the other four Kage were incredulous, quickly asking, "Naruto, what did you say? It's the Ten-tailed?"

Uzumaki Naruto nodded and said, "Yeah, Kurama told me that this creature's power is the same as the Ten-tailed's, only that for some reason… it seems to have gained consciousness!"

Darui said, "Then what do we do now... Should we try to communicate with it?"

"Better seal it, after all, it is the Ten-tailed, maybe it's a trick of the Shell Organization…"

Kurotsuchi had a different opinion, a mishap with the Ten-tailed could destroy the Ninja World, it's better to seal this kind of creature!

Uzumaki Naruto's expression was serious, and he said, "I'll go to probe it; Sasuke, everyone, if it can't be communicated with, please cover me…."

Upon finishing speaking, Uzumaki Naruto started walking towards the Ten-tailed, stopping about twenty to thirty meters away.

There was no attack...

Uzumaki Naruto thought in his heart, then shouted loudly, "Hey, you…."

"Not… Although very similar, but not… I want to eat the Otsutsuki…."

Before Uzumaki Naruto could finish, the Ten-tailed glanced at Uzumaki Naruto and said slowly.

"You…"

Uzumaki Naruto was stunned by this look, unable to describe the gaze, just felt a blankness; no joy, no sorrow, no worries, a gaze similar to a predator about to hunt, but the Ten-tailed's gaze lacked any emotion, looking at each kind of food indifferently….

"... must eat the Otsutsuki? I've been hungry for a long time, might as well eat something first, I'm not picky, a human brain will do!"

Another black head emerged from the shoulder of the Ten-tailed, a mouth of blood and sharp teeth, along with its words, made Uzumaki Naruto immediately realize it wasn't something to reason with.

The Ten-tailed ignored the symbiote's words, continuing to ask Uzumaki Naruto with a flat tone, "Otsutsuki... Where is it?"

Uzumaki Naruto slightly clenched his fists and said, "Otsutsuki, huh, I want to know more than you where he is, but before we find Otsutsuki, please do not resist and communicate with us properly…."

"No Otsutsuki…. You'll have to do for now…"

With those words, the Ten-tailed quickly charged towards Uzumaki Naruto.

A shadow instantly arrived like a pitch-black lightning, Uzumaki Naruto noticed this speed and his eyes widened in disbelief.

Swish!

But in the next second, Uzumaki Naruto suddenly felt his body being swapped by someone, and his view suddenly changed. The Ten-tailed that was just in front of him now seemed distant, and the person in front of the Ten-tailed was Uchiha Sasuke.

Chirp chirp chirp!

"Chidori!"

Uchiha Sasuke swiftly swung his blade towards the Ten-tailed, the Kusanagi Sword wrapped in strands of lightning, swiftly slashing towards the Ten-tailed's neck while Sasuke also dodged the Ten-tailed's attacking claws by ducking low.

Crackle!

Lightning roared, the precise swipe hit the Ten-tailed's neck, but Uchiha Sasuke immediately sensed something was amiss, the slash wrapped with Chidori didn't cut through.

Swish!

The Ten-tailed once again swiped its claws towards Uchiha Sasuke, but its palm revealed a cluster of sand, followed by a lightning-wrapped Water Whip that whipped it flying.

"Sasuke, are you okay?"

"Hmm, I'm fine, this guy seems to have a thick protective layer, Taijutsu and ninja tool attacks probably won't work, let's try something else!"

After saying this, Uchiha Sasuke saw that the Ten-tailed had stood up as well, seemingly unaffected by the Lightning Release's paralysis, he frowned slightly and made a hand seal with one hand!

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Jutsu!"

A blazing hot fireball instantly spewed from Uchiha Sasuke's mouth, rapidly attacking the Ten-tailed.

At about a distance of two to three meters, the symbiote noticed the heat from the Great Fireball and instantly retracted into a ball, merging back into the Ten-tailed; this situation was also observed by Darui and the others, although the symbiote retracted, the Great Fireball had no effect on the Ten-tailed!

The four to five-meter diameter fireball was extinguished with a wave of the Ten-tailed's palm.

Uzumaki Naruto said, "That black thing on the Ten-tailed seems afraid of fire, Sasuke!"

"I know, I'll keep an eye out to strike later on."

Uchiha Sasuke also saw that scene and prepared to test more with Fire Release.

After shaking off the Great Fireball Jutsu, possibly due to not having eaten food for a long time, preventing its evolution from completing, the Ten-tailed started to show an emotion called restless: "Eat… eat you all… eat them all… all..."

Soon, body tissues slowly split out from the Ten-tailed, quickly transforming into humanoid beings resembling the Ten-tailed.

This is the splitting ability of the Ten-tailed, previously demonstrated in the Fourth Great Ninja War.

While the Five Kage and Uchiha Sasuke were facing off against the Ten-tailed, beneath the Otsutsuki Altar, a Space-Time Passage suddenly opened, and then Jigen walked out.

Seeing the empty underground space, leaving only a few black rods, no matter how graceful he usually held himself, Jigen found it difficult to remain calm, his face slightly unpleasant as he said, "...damn, who did this…"

Before he could finish speaking, he noticed many chakras outside.

Simultaneously, the voice of the sentinel ninja sounded once again in the minds of the Five Kage and Uchiha Sasuke, "Lords of the Five Kage, in that altar underground just now, a foreign chakra appeared suddenly, it's very likely Space-Time Ninjutsu!"
