Chapter 511: 476. Kazekage Vs Kazekage
The Edo Shinobi explains every detail to the Edo Kazekages.
"Sigh… I didn't expect to fall to other's schemes even after my death!" The first Kazekage shakes their head.
Whoosh…
A few seconds later, Gaara and Rasa arrive in front of the Edo group.
"ATTACK!"
"Grandfather, I didn't expect to meet you in such a situation." Rasa opens his mouth as he glances at the Reto.
"Shamon-sama!" He bows his head to Shamon in respect.
"Rasa, is that you?" Reto glances at Rasa with compassion.
"Yes, it's me!" Rasa has a conflicted expression on his face.
There is joy from meeting his elder, but also grief since both of them are enemies.
'Kabuto, that despicable bastard!' Rasa directs his hate toward Kabuto.
Gaara stands beside Rasa and asks.
"Dad, they are…"
"They are your great-grandfather and great-granduncle!" Rasa introduces Reto and Shaman to Gaara.
"This boy…"
Both of them turn towards Gaara and notice the floating sand behind him.
"This boy! Sigh…" Reto sighs and shakes his head.
"Rasa looks like you didn't make the same mistake as us."
"No… I followed your footsteps and made the same mistake as you!" Rasa chuckles in self-mockery as he recalls some bitter moments from his past.
His father, Retsu, Reto's son, was the former Jinchuriki of the One-tails. During his lifetime, Retsu was unable to control Shukaku. And one day, he finally lost control and fell under Shukaku's mind control.
In the end, Reto steeled his heart and granted him freedom from his fate.
Reto clenches his fists as he recalls the smile of relief on Retsu's face.
Gaara bows to Reto and Shamon in respect.
"What a filial child!" Reto smiles at Gaara in approval.
"Great grandfather… Unlike my grandfather, I met someone great who sympathized with my situation. I made friends who cared for me and had a family who loved me sincerely."
A smile appears on Gaara's face as the images of Izuna, Naruto, Temari, Kankuro, and his mother flashed past his mind.
"I see!" Reto nods at Gaara with slight tears in his eyes.
"Perhaps back then, I was too naïve with my approach. If only I had paid more attention to Retsu, if only I cared for him as much; then perhaps… perhaps he didn't have to…"
Reto closes his eyes in guilt.
"Hehe… Enough chit-chat! It's time to get to work." Kabuto's sinister voice echoes in their ears.
Swish… swish…
Kabuto makes a series of hand signs and controls the bodies of Reto, Shamon, and the rest of the Edo shinobis. Their eyes turn black as they lose all their emotions.
Several Zetsu soldiers pop out of the ground and confront Gaara and Rasa. The army of the Allied Shinobi forces also arrives on the battlefield.
"ATTAACKK!!"
The vice-commander of the allied shinobi force issues an order. The Zetsu soldiers also charge toward the allied shinobi force.
Boom… Boom…
Sounds of explosions, smoke, fire, lightning, water, and other jutsu echoes on the battlefield.
Reto takes a step forward Gaara and several sand golems slowly rise from the ground.
Shamon weaves his hand and several chakra threads expel out from his fingers. The chakra threads connect to ten different puppets and float in the air around him.
Swish… swish…
Rasa makes a series of hand signs and slams his palm on the ground.
Rumble… Rumble…
The earth beneath him trembles and a large amount of gold sand ejects out of the ground. Rasa raises his hand in the air and creates a gigantic humanoid golem with a golden shield and spear.
Gaara also reciprocates Reto's jutsu with his own. He claps his hand and yells.
"Sand Drizzle!"
Large amounts of sand particles rise in the air and coalesce into multiple lumps of sand.
"Sand Buckshot!"
He waves his hands towards the several sand golems.
BOOM… BOOM…
The lumps of sand bombard and demolish everything in front of him. They pierce through the sand golems and smash most of them into pieces.
The sand golems also counterattack. A few of them aim their hand toward Gaara and launch several canon bolts of sand toward Gaara.
Bang…. Bang…
A barrier of sand shrouds Gaara and blocks the bombardment of sand bombs.
Several other golems create various weapons like sand axe, sand hammers, sand bows, and arrows.
<Imperial Sand Army>
The golems charge toward Gaara and the rest of the allied shinobi force.
"I won't let you harm my allies!"
Gaara slams his hands on the ground.
<Sand Waterfall Imperial Funeral>
A small amount of sand rises from his guard and enters the ground.
Rumble… Rumble…
The sand from Gaara's guard grinds the rock beneath the ground and generates a large amount of sand. The sand rises from the earth and Gaara compresses and grinds it into fine sand particles. The sand swiftly flows on the ground and flattens the nearby terrain. It squeezes and crushes a portion of the Zetsu army. The sand binds several sand golems in a place.
"Quick Sand Waterfall!"
Gaara sways his hand downward and drowns the sand golems into the quicksand.
The sand continues to travel forward and engulf Reto within it.
"Grand Sand Mausoleum Seal,"
Gaara claps his hands and compresses the sand around Reto into a giant pyramid-shaped seal. He tosses several sealing tags toward the sand pyramid and seals Reto within it.
"The young generation has long surpassed the old generation." Reto voices fade away with the completion of the seal.
On the other side, Rasa also ends his battle with Shamon. Several heavy gold sand particles immobilize Shamon's various puppets by blocking their joints.
"You grew up into a fine man, Rasa!" Shamon smiles at Rasa as the latter seals him.
"I had a fine teacher like you, Sensei!" Rasa also pays his respect to Shamon.
Soon, Gaara and Rasa's division overpowers the Zetsu army and scores an overwhelming victory.
"Kazekage-sama, we received a backup request from the special unit. Several former members of the Akatsuki appeared on the battlefield." A member of the communication team informs Rasa and Gaara.
"Go, leave this place to me!"
Rasa nods at Gaara.
Gaara swiftly creates a cloud of sand and flies off in the direction pointed out by the headquarters.
-------------------------
"Hmm…"
Naruto, who is dashing in the direction of the coastal battlefield, pauses.
Whoosh…
He swiftly jumps sideways and avoids the charge of a giant rhino.
"This summons…" Naruto's expression turns grim as he recognizes the rhino.
The rhino turns around and charges again toward Naruto.
This time Naruto clenches his fist and punches the giant rhino as soon as it closes up on him.
Bang…
Naruto lands a heavy blow on the rhino's head.
Crack…
The horn of the giant rhino cracks into fragments, and it disappears into a puff of white smoke.
"Nagato, is that you?"
Naruto looks around with a serious expression. Even with his enhanced senses, he is unable to sense Nagato's location.
Poof… poof…
Several clouds of smoke appear around Naruto. A group of giant summons like a giant dog, a giant bull, a giant centipede, a giant crab, and a giant chimera bird surround him.
Shiing…
Naruto closes his eyes and takes a deep breath. He opens his eyes and an orange cloak appears around him.
"Let's do it, Kurama!"
Whoosh…
The next second, Naruto disappears from the shared vision of every Rinnegan summons.
Bang…
He reappears on top of the giant bull and slams down a giant Rasengan on top of its head.
BOOM…
Naruto's Chō-Ōdama Rasengan pins the giant bull to the ground.
Poof…
The giant bull disappears into a puff of smoke.
BOOM… BOOMM…
At the same time, the giant chimera bird drops several explosive eggs on top of Naruto.
Naruto crosses his arms and generates a barrier of chakra around his body. Dust and smoke cover the surrounding area and block the summon's vision.
Swoosh…
Suddenly, a giant chakra arm grabs the chimera bird out of nowhere and drags it toward the ground.
BANG…
The giant bird slams into the ground with a powerful impact force and disappears into a puff of smoke.
Clang…
Naruto raises his other hand and blocks the claw of the giant crab. The crab's claw slowly calcifies his arm, but Naruto shrugs it off with a protective layer of chakra.
He clenches the arm of the giant crab with such force that cracks appear on its hard shell.
"Wind Release: Piercing Vacuum Blades,"
Naruto injects a large number of wind blades into the crab's body and slices its body into several pieces from the inside out.
Poof…
The crab also disappears into a puff of smoke.
Whoosh…
Naruto flickers away from his previous position and avoids the fatal poison spit of the giant centipede. The poison corrodes a giant crater into the ground.
Naruto frowns as he stares at the poisonous centipede.
'That looks scary. I must avoid it at all costs.'
Rumble…
The giant centipede enters the ground and disappears from Naruto's sight.
Chapter 512: 477. Jinchurikis in Danger
Swish… swish… swish…
Suddenly, several black rods fly toward Naruto from his blind spot.
Whoosh…
Naruto senses a murderous intention aimed at his back. He immediately dodges and avoids the fatal attack.
Clang…
Naruto deflects a black receiver rod with a kunai and grabs it. He stabs the rod in his hand and senses Nagato's location.
"Found you!"
Naruto glances in a certain direction. He infuses chakra into his kunai and throws it.
Swish… Boom…
The kunai pierces through several trees and finally stabs into a boulder.
Nagato's camouflage breaks after the attack. He tilts his head and barely avoids the attack.
Whoosh…
The next second, Naruto arrives in front of Nagato.
"Found you!" He confronts Nagato.
"Nagato!" Naruto takes a combat stance.
"Sigh… So, it finally came to this!" Nagato sighs as he stares at Naruto's new form.
"I never imagined that I'd be forced into fighting you again, Naruto! It's probably been a while since we last met. But since I have been dead, it feels like it's been only a moment. You have changed a bit, Naruto." Nagato activates his Rinnegan and glances at the chakra cloak around Naruto.
"You are much stronger than before." He adds.
"Oh, you mean this?" Naruto stares at the Nine-tails chakra mode around his body.
"I'm in complete control of the Nine-tails chakra now. This is my new chakra mode!"
"I see… No wonder you look so different." Nagato nods at him.
"Looks like you were able to overcome your pain, suffering, and hatred"
"Yeah, it was all thanks to my friends and family. Pervy-Sage, he will be sad to see you like this." Naruto shakes his head.
"Sigh… Jiraiya Sensei! I…" Nagato shakes his head and turns silent for a while.
"Konan, Is she…"
"Konan-san is alright! She is serving as a warden in an orphanage."
"I… I see… I am relieved to hear that." Nagato heaves a sigh of relief.
--------------------
On the other side of the battlefield,
"Weee…" Bee hops from tree to tree through a forest.
Swoosh… Whoosh…
Another figure flickers beside him and joins him.
"Bee-sama, I finally caught up with you. The headquarters ordered me to come. I'm supposed to assist you."
"Thank you, Motoi Brother!" Bee shakes hands with Motoi.
Whoosh…
Both of them flicker through the forest and march toward Raikage's location.
"WAIT!"
Suddenly, Bee leaps down from the tree and hides behind a giant boulder.
"Don't come!" He warns Motoi and disappears into the bushes.
Motoi takes out a kunai and warily stares at his surroundings.
'Strange! Why can't I sense any enemy chakra in the vicinity? How come Bee-sama sensed the location of the enemy?" Motoi questions himself.
Motoi recalls the strange nature of Zetsu's chakra.
'Perhaps it's related to their strange nature.' He shrugs off his shoulder and patiently awaits Bee's arrival.
Five minutes later,
Hmm…
Motoi frowns as Bee has yet to return.
"Should I join Bee-sama as well? He has yet to come back." Motoi hesitates.
"No, the headquarters ordered me to follow Bee-sama's instructions. I will wait for him here!"
Another ten minutes later,
Motoi gulps his saliva and glances in Bee's direction.
"Bee-sama has yet to come back. I can't wait any longer." He takes a step forward.
Rustle… rustle…
Suddenly, the bush in front of him rustles and an upside-down face sneaks out of it.
"WEEEEE…."
AHHH…
Motoi screams in horror and jumps back.
"Bee-sama… Bee-sama… he… he…" He screams these words and dashes in the opposite direction.
"Huh!" Bee tilts his head in confusion.
"Fool, ya Fool! What just happened to that fool? He lost his cool!"
"Bee, let's chase after him." Gyuki's voice echoes in Bee's ears.
"Weee… Here I go!"
Whoosh…
Bee flickers towards Motoi and soon he appears on a plain.
"Brother Motoi, wait!"
Bee waves his hand at Motoi.
"Ah!" Motoi is stunned to see Bee and quickly dashes toward him.
"Bee-sama, you are alive!" He grabs Bee's hands and shakes them with joy.
"Of course, I am! I just did a quickie!" Bee raises his little finger.
"AH!"
Motoi's face freezes as he feels a wet sensation in his hand.
Sniff… sniff…
He sniffs his hand and smells a foul odor.
'You sure took a long one for a quickie!" Gyuki chides Bee.
"Your brother might be in trouble!"
"I couldn't hold it any longer and you are about to lose your composure. But now, I'm feeling good and dandy. So don't worry and be happy."
Bee takes out a paper towel from his pocket. He wipes his hands on the towel, rolls it, and throws it away.
"Instead of wasting time on your silly rap, let's help your brother," Gyuki scolds Bee.
"I am sorry, but you don't have to worry. As for my brother, he should be fine without my help. Yo!"
"Bee-sama, this…"
Motoi stares at his wet hand in bewilderment.
"I went pissin' since the enemy was missin'."
"Pissin', huh!" Motoi wipes his hands with a paper towel and chases after Bee.
"Hey wait, Bee! You almost gave me a heart attack with that jump scare. I thought you were dead for a second!"
"Don't sweat the small stuff. Also, things are about to get rough!"
Suddenly, Bee's expression turns serious. He pauses in his footsteps and glances at the ground in front of him.
---------------------
In a hidden underground cavern,
Hiss…
A white snake hisses behind Kabuto's back. Kabuto gently pats the snake's head and glances at the various shogi pieces on the ground.
"With my previous failure, Tobi asked me to leave them alone. However, now both Naruto and Bee are approaching the battlefield." Kabuto takes out a scroll and a pouch from his pocket.
"However, this is such a perfect opportunity to capture them."
Kabuto makes a series of hand signs and wipes blood on the scroll from two vials.
"Kuku… I wonder what expression will he make under that mask when he comes to know that the eight-tails and nine-tails are already in my grasp?" Kabuto breaks out in a peal of hysterical laughter.
"Obito, do you really think I don't know your intentions? You planned to use me and so, do I? And so far, everything is according to my plan… Kuku…" Kabuto turns his attention toward the shogi board.
"So, now let me pick the perfect reanimation for you both, Naruto and Bee!"
Kabuto smears the blood on the scroll and a giant fuinjutsu formation appears on the ground.
-----------------------
Back on the battlefield,
Rumble… Rumble…
The ground in front of Bee and Motoi trembles and a coffin erupts from the ground.
Guah… aaah… Huaah…
A group of Zetsu soldiers are pushed out of the ground by the wooden coffin.
"W-What was all that about?!"
The group of Zetsu soldiers stands up and stares at the wooden coffin.
"No way is that… ?!"
The door of the coffin slams down on the ground, and a figure walks out of it.
A figure with bi-color hair of green and white walks out of the coffin. The figure has heavy-lidded eyes and a diamond-shaped mark around his right eye.
Bee, Motoi, and Gyuki's mouths open wide in surprise.
"You… you're the former eight-tails Jinchuriki, Fukai-san, also known by his moniker Blue B."
"Huh!" Blue B opens his eyes and glances around. He raises his head and stares at Bee and Motoi.
"It has been a while, Bee! And you are… Motoi?! Looking at your current appearances looks like someone performed Edo-Tensei on me. Is it Orochimaru?" Blue B asks them.
"Fukai-san… That day, thirty years ago… Yes, the day you died. We tried to stop the eight-tails rampage and eight shinobis lost their lives. My dad was among them." Fukai grits his teeth.
"I see." Blue B closes his eyes.
"I am so sorry!" He sighs helplessly.
"But I know that apologies won't bring him back."
"Yes, he's Blue B. There is no doubt about it. But why? No matter how hard I try, I don't remember a lot about that rampage…" Gyuki glances at Blue B and attempts to recall some past memories.
"Bee, this chakra I sense from you…" Blue B raises his head and stares into Bee's eyes.
"I see, so you became a Jinchuriki."
"Kuku… the time for a joyous reunion is over!"
Kabuto claps his hands.
Shoom…
A chakra pulse flashes past Blue B's body.
"Bee, I can't control myself. So, run!"
"If the eight-tails is inside you no more, you can't fight life before." Bee crosses his arms in front of his chest.
"You're wrong!!" Blue B warns them.
"Now, Blue B!" Kabuto makes a ram hand seal.
"Why don't you show them how serious you are?"
Burble… burble…
Red chakra bubbles pop out of Blue B's body as he enters the first transformation.
"Impossible! This chakra!" Gyuki's eyes widen in shock.
"Bee, Motoi! Get away!" Blue B riles up his chakra and enters into the second transformation of the tailed-beast mode.
Eight-tails appear behind his back and a giant column of chakra rises in the air.
