****************
In the ninja world, Jutsus were divided into many types and levels.
The [Great Fire Annihilation], although rarely used, was a very representative Fire Style jutsu.
Many people know it as a B-rank jutsu, mastered by Jōnin-level ninja.
However, no one told Yugito that a B-rank jutsu from this kid's hands would be more terrifying than an S-rank!
The Kumo shinobi behind Yugito were even more distressed.
Among them, very few could use the Water Style jutsu. And Even those who could use it found their efforts to be a mere drop in a bucket against such a sea of fire.
Just when everyone was looking desperate and ready to face death, Yugito made her move.
"Raaaargh!"
After an angry roar, her braid came undone as an enormous blue chakra emerged from her body.
In the blink of an eye, a huge blue monster stood in front of all the Kumo shinobi!
"Roar!"
An incomparably massive fireball spewed from its mouth and collided with Colt's [Great Fire Annihilation]!
The flames grew even more violent, but the forward momentum of Colt's jutsu was finally halted.
Yugito seized this opportunity.
"Now! Scatter!"
The Kumo shinobis hurriedly fled to safety.
But before they could rejoice for even a few seconds, that devilish voice sounded again.
"I don't recall allowing you to survive, hmm?"
With a hint of mocking curiosity, Colt brought his hands together again.
"[Wood Style: Four-Pillar Prison]!"
A wooden structure larger than a house emerged from the ground. And before they could react; it had already trapped them all inside.
"[Fire Style: Dragon Flame Bomb]!"
Just like catching bees in a jar, these shinobis found themselves unable to break free from the wooden prison. They could only watch helplessly as they were engulfed by the fire dragon.
Who said that the Fire Style couldn't kill? Today, Colt was going to rewrite the Fire Style's reputation!
As expected, the cage heated up, and the chakra within was overwhelming.
Dozens of their comrades died instantly.
Yugito, in her Two-Tails state, went completely berserk.
As the two combatants' Fire chakra gradually dissipated, Yugito lunged at Colt with her sharp claws.
"She looks pretty good, but her temper is a bit violent," Colt commented as he easily dodged the blow.
In terms of appearance, apart from Naruto's Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, the Two-Tails was also quite impressive.
It existed like a spirit body, with slightly mysterious black patterns. It could be said to be gorgeous without losing its intimidating aura.
Seeing that Colt easily evaded her attack, Yugito naturally refused to give up and pounced on him again.
But this time, Colt didn't humor her anymore.
He swung his fist directly at her.
Boom!
A huge shockwave erupted.
Surprisingly, it was not Colt who was at a disadvantage due to his size, but Yugito in her Tailed Beast State who was blown away.
The entire Tailed Beast was sent flying by the force, its huge eyes full of disbelief.
Colt showed no surprise at this outcome.
His physical attributes had been growing every day for nearly ten years, and the standard for measuring strength in the ninja world no longer applied to him.
Even without any special techniques, he was an unbeatable opponent for the Two-Tails.
With one punch, Yugito was sent flying over 100 meters, breaking countless trees before finally coming to a stop.
However, this only seemed to stun her and did not cause any substantial damage.
In fact, some Kage-level powerhouses could handle some ordinary Tailed Beasts.
The nine-tails was excluded of course.
After all, of the ten Tailed Beasts in the world, Kurama possessed the biggest part of Ten-Tails' chakra.
However, the biggest difference between a Tailed Beast and a Kage-level powerhouse was the amount of chakra and vitality they had.
Simply put, it was the difference between high attack power with low health and full, balanced development.
If Danzo had been hit head-on by Colt's punch, without his [Izanagi], he would have been obliterated.
Yugito however, only felt pain and suffered some superficial injuries, which were already healing under the influence of the Two-Tails' chakra.
Colt leaped into the air, green chakra already enveloping his entire body.
"[Eight Inner Gates: Gate of Life, Open]!"
His strength and speed increased dramatically.
"[Strong Fist: Open Sky]!"
Another punch struck its stomach with such force that its eyes bulged.
'This cat's belly is very soft!' Colt thought to himself.
He didn't care about this observation and continued his relentless assault, punch after punch, pummeling Yugito.
Thinking of Kosuke's injuries, his fists grew even heavier!
No matter if she was the most beautiful Jinchūriki or a cute cat girl who moved people's hearts, this was her fate for injuring his friend!
This kind of physical stimulation made Colt a little excited. It was hard to find such a durable opponent!
After that… The mournful howls lasted for ten minutes.
With every punch, Yugito would crash through a large number of trees.
Coupled with the earlier collision of the Fire Style Jutsus, the once-intact forest was quickly ruined by their battle.
It wasn't that Yugito didn't try to fight back, but Colt was too agile for her.
He moved so fast that her claws and tails couldn't touch him at all.
She wasn't a perfect Jinchūriki, able to control this form only by virtue of her strong will and partial approval from the Two-Tails, Matatabi.
As such, now that her consciousness had been rattled, she naturally withdrew from the Tailed Beast state.
"Argh"
The now-human Yugito looked utterly miserable. Her once beautiful face had been beaten until it was swollen and distorted. The clothes on her body were in tatters, barely covering the essential parts.
"Who... are you..." she managed to spit out these words, struggling not to faint.
She had been in a state of rage earlier and hadn't realized that Colt was using the Wood Style. There was also his terrifying physical strength, which had defeated her Tailed Beast form purely through taijutsu. If you can call that taijutsu…
How could such a monstrous person exist in this world?
"Oh? You still have the strength to speak?" Colt was a little surprised.
He had been using about 80% of his physical strength in the Third Gate state.
'They say that Jinchūrikis are quite durable, and I can see that's the case indeed'
He kept the thought to himself, however.
"You'll find out later. For now, it's better if you sleep," he said.
*Boom*
*Boom*
Then, grabbing her by the ankle, Colt swung her around twice smashing her into the ground, and created two large craters.
This time, Yugito finally lost her consciousness completely.
