Roar!!
A few seconds later, a violent roar echoed across the area.
A shocking chakra cloak appeared around Yugito Nii's body. Blue, cat-like chakra markings spread across her skin. Her hair rose slightly, and her eyes turned white.
In an instant, she entered a fully tailed-beast state.
Boom!!
The moment Yugito completed her full transformation, the entire Takigakure trembled.
The tailed beast chakra was so violent that cracks instantly appeared across the plaza floor, spreading outward at incredible speed.
"Th-that… that's tailed beast chakra?!"
"Kumogakure actually sent the Two-Tails jinchūriki! This is outrageous!"
"What do we do?! The Two-Tails jinchūriki has entered full tailed-beast form! This is terrifying!"
The moment Yugito transformed, the Takigakure shinobi erupted into panicked cries.
Some were so frightened that they collapsed to the ground.
After all—
Takigakure was only a small hidden village.
When had they ever faced an enemy this terrifying?
How could they possibly fight this?
"Seven-Tails jinchūriki—Fū… where are you?!"
Seeing the situation, Shibuki, the young leader protected in the center of the plaza, stared blankly ahead.
Despair filled his face.
If it were only Kumogakure shinobi, he could still drink the Hero Water and fight them to the death.
But facing a fully transformed Yugito—
he truly felt hopeless.
Even if he drank the Hero Water and fought with everything he had, it would still be suicide.
"Seven-Tails jinchūriki… still not coming out?"
After entering full tailed-beast form, Yugito sneered coldly and let out a savage cat-like roar.
Her violent eyes locked onto Shibuki.
Her sharp fangs showed as she grinned, looking ready to launch the final assault at any moment.
"Hahaha! Hurry up and surrender!"
"Lady Yugito is terrifying! As expected of the perfect Two-Tails jinchūriki!"
"Takigakure is finished. Now it just depends on whether the Seven-Tails shows up."
Watching Yugito in her tailed-beast form, the Kumo shinobi revealed cold smiles.
Some of them even watched with amusement.
What was there left to say?
With Yugito already fully transformed, the situation was basically settled.
"Hmph… still not coming out?"
"Fire Mouse Flame!"
With a cold shout, Yugito opened her mouth.
A mouse-shaped flame shot out instantly.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Before everyone's eyes, the flame split into countless blue tracking fireballs, rushing toward the Takigakure shinobi gathered in the center of the plaza.
"It's over…"
"We're dead…"
Facing such a terrifying attack, the Takigakure shinobi turned pale with fear.
Even Shibuki's body trembled uncontrollably.
But just as the attack was about to land—
"Was this really necessary?"
A slightly helpless voice suddenly sounded.
In the next instant, a young woman with short blue-green hair and butterfly-like wings appeared in the center of the plaza.
Buzz!!
Another wave of terrifying tailed beast chakra erupted.
In the blink of an eye, the woman entered her tailed-beast state.
Dark red chakra covered her entire body as she stood firmly in front of the Takigakure shinobi.
It was the Seven-Tails jinchūriki.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The countless blue flame projectiles slammed directly into her body.
BOOOOOOM!!
A devastating explosion erupted.
The shockwave tore across the plaza like a natural disaster.
Many Takigakure shinobi were blasted away by the aftermath.
The cracks in the plaza expanded several times over, forming a massive crater.
Even the entire village trembled repeatedly.
The scene was utterly terrifying.
One second…
Ten seconds…
Thirty seconds…
Time slowly passed.
Nearly ten minutes later, the battlefield finally began to settle.
Looking around—
the plaza was in ruins.
Takigakure shinobi lay scattered everywhere after being blown away by the shockwaves.
But aside from Yugito—
another massive figure had appeared.
A gigantic beetle-like creature with six wings and a single tail now stood in the plaza.
The Seven-Tails.
"Heh."
Seeing the Seven-Tails finally appear, Yugito sneered.
"You finally showed up."
Hiss!!
The fully transformed Seven-Tails roared.
"I never wanted to interfere… but Kumogakure ignoring Takigakure's existence like this is going too far."
"Too far?"
Yugito shook her head disdainfully.
"When Kumogakure acts, why should we care about how Takigakure feels?"
"Damn you—!"
Before the words even finished—
BOOM!!
The enraged Seven-Tails suddenly unleashed a massive burst of tailed beast chakra.
"Good!"
Instead of getting angry, Yugito looked excited.
At last—
the real battle was about to begin.
"Fall back!"
"Everyone retreat!"
"Let Yugito-sama handle it first!"
Meanwhile, Mabui and the Kumo shinobi rapidly withdrew from the battlefield.
After all—
a battle between tailed beasts was far beyond what ordinary shinobi could interfere with.
