Aokawa drew a short metal staff from behind him, and immediately, a blade-shaped blue Chakra extended from the staff.
He gently stroked the vibrating blade of the Soul-Cutting Object, "To prepare for your baptism, my Chakra was nearly drained."
"Indeed! It took me quite a bit of effort," a voice suddenly came from an empty spot not far away.
Another Aokawa slowly emerged from behind a tree, also holding a Soul-Cutting Object emitting a blue-white glow.
"Shadow Clone?!" The Two-Tails' huge pupils contracted sharply, "When?"
The original Aokawa and the Shadow Clone, their movements perfectly synchronized, reversed their grip on the Light Blade and thrust it sharply into the ground beneath their feet: "From the very beginning!"
Buzz!!!
The instant the blade tip pierced the earth, centered on the Two-Tails Matatabi, dazzling light simultaneously erupted from the ground at three other locations besides where the two Aokawas stood!
The five Soul-Cutting Objects stuck in the five corners began to resonate at the same frequency, emitting a low hum.
White light beneath them started rapidly extending along the Formation lines toward the center of the Spirit Formation, converging beneath the Two-Tails, connecting with each other, revealing countless profound runes.
Quickly outlining an immensely large Five-Pointed Star Formation.
Silver-white Light Bands stretched out from the ground, wrapping around the Two-Tails' limbs, torso, and two tails like living things, firmly locking it in place, trapping it tightly in the center.
"What is this? A trap? When did he set this up?" Yugito's huge pupils contracted sharply, a strong sense of alarm rising in her heart.
She roared madly, her massive body struggling violently.
No matter how much Chakra she mobilized, those Light Bands remained motionless.
Aokawa looked at the struggling Two-Tails within the Formation, his gaze cold.
He slowly reached out and picked up a Silver Metal Cylinder, unscrewed the cap, and poured a drop of white liquid toward the center of the Formation.
The liquid seemed to have life; the moment it fell into the Formation, it rapidly spread along the complex patterns.
The entire Broken Light Formation's light instantly surged!
Countless new white Light Bands rose from the Formation, just like before, continuously wrapping around the Two-Tails' torso and limbs, binding it tightly.
Following this, at the center of the Formation, a visible stream of energy shot toward the sky, and the violent energy within was instantly detonated.
"Boom!"
A fierce explosion occurred inside the Formation. The blue flames on the Two-Tails' body were continuously melted away by the explosion, eliciting even more piercing roars.
The intense pain made it struggle frantically, wanting to escape this place, but the Light Bands on the ground held it fast, leaving it only able to struggle bitterly in the explosion of surging energy.
However, the Tailed Beast Ball that had already taken shape in the Two-Tails' mouth began to crack at this moment, swelling rapidly, its energy becoming extremely unstable.
Aokawa, standing nearby, was startled.
The next instant, his figure appeared next to Kurenai Yuhi, and amidst her soft cry, he held her securely in a standard Princess Carry.
Kurenai Yuhi's cheeks instantly turned bright red, and her hands naturally wrapped around Aokawa's neck.
Looking at his handsome profile, she secretly thought happily, "He didn't deny that I'm a girl he cares about..."
Thinking of this, the blush on her face deepened. She lowered her head again and again until she buried it in his firm chest, feeling that reassuring aura.
Aokawa didn't pay much attention to that.
With the soft beauty held in his arms, accompanied by a faint fragrance, he carried Kurenai Yuhi using the Hirenkyaku to instantly move onto a large tree, then freed one hand to quickly form hand seals.
"Water Release: Grand Waterfall Technique!"
A massive wave appearing out of thin air rose abruptly and aggressively rushed toward Kakashi, Asuma, Obito, Hagane, and everyone else.
"Aokawa, what are you doing..." Asuma Sarutobi roared upon seeing Aokawa pick up Kurenai Yuhi.
But before he could finish speaking, he was submerged by the sudden giant wave.
"You better put Kurenai down for me... gurgle gurgle... Put Kurenai down for me... gurgle gurgle."
He bobbed up and down in the water, his mouth opening and closing, unable to utter a single complete sentence.
Aokawa, standing on the tree, found it somewhat amusing seeing him like that.
But there was no other way; time was too short, and this was the least effortful method.
The massive wave washed everyone a hundred meters away to a safe area before stopping.
The few of them tumbled and collided in the torrent, swallowing several mouthfuls of water, looking utterly miserable.
At the exact same moment they were washed away.
Rumble!!
The uncontrolled Tailed Beast Ball detonated in the center of the Formation, and destructive energy spread wildly in all directions.
But the moment that power touched the center of the Broken Light Formation, it was forcefully redirected by the surging pillar of Chakra, guided toward the high sky.
A beam of light piercing heaven and earth illuminated everyone's pale faces.
Several seconds later, the light dissipated.
The massive Two-Tails had vanished. At the center of the deep pit, only Yugito, with her body severely damaged and covered in wounds, remained.
Her clothes had long since been shredded in the explosion, revealing large expanses of snow-white skin and hideous scars. She lay there weakly, unconscious.
Aokawa, holding Kurenai Yuhi, landed steadily by the edge of the pit.
"She didn't die, looks like the Two-Tails retreated back inside. What good luck!" he thought to himself.
Kurenai Yuhi in his arms slightly raised her head and happened to see Yugito's exposed body. Her face turned even redder.
Almost instinctively, she immediately reached out her small hand to block Aokawa's view, muttering softly, "Don't look!"
Aokawa caught the faint fragrance of the young girl near his nose.
"Okay, okay, I won't look, I won't look!"
He used his Byakugan to look at the Chakra meridians on Yugito's body.
He calmly raised his other hand and pointed towards Yugito at the bottom of the pit with an empty gesture.
"Gentle Fist: Rain of Light."
Countless Chakra Needles as fine as ox hair appeared around his fingertips.
As the Chakra Needles from his fingertips shot out rapidly, the surrounding Chakra Needles also burst forth simultaneously, like a sharp rain of light, precisely striking the vital points all over Yugito's body, completely sealing off the remaining Chakra within her...
