Capítulo 62: Chapter 62: The Relentless Pursuer! Konoha’s Iron Resolve, Giving Yugito No Escape!
Kazuya went all out!
Two-Tailed Beasts, Killer Bee and Yugito!
He knew facing two Jinchūriki with partial transformations wasn't something to take lightly.
No more holding back!
Boom!
The Rasengan exploded!
Empowered by Sage energy, the Rasengan's force tore through Yugito's chakra cloak, shredding it to pieces.
A loud, thunderous boom echoed.
Dust and smoke filled the battlefield, and shockwaves radiated outward, a force of nature unleashed!
As the dust settled, Yugito Nii gradually emerged from the smoke, revealing herself once again to the crowd.
At that moment, her deep crimson chakra cloak was in tatters, her breath heavy as she knelt on one knee.
"You… who are you?" Yugito looked up, her eyes wide in shock at the mysterious Konoha Anbu in front of her.
Too strong!
Just a single move from him nearly shattered her half-transformed tailed-beast state. Since when did Konoha have such a terrifying Anbu operative?
[You've picked up 500 points of Tailed Beast Power]
[You've picked up 500 points of Tailed Beast Power]
[You've picked up 400 points of Chakra]
[You've picked up 200 points of Chakra]
[You've picked up 400 points of Tailed Beast Power]
Golden lights floated around Yugito as fragments of energy dropped from her.
In just that brief exchange, Kazuya had already collected over two thousand points of Tailed Beast Power!
He chuckled, clearly amused.
Then, with a swift move, Kazuya closed the gap between them once more.
"Come on, lady," he muttered with a sly grin. "Let's see how much Tailed Beast Power you can drop this time. Don't hold back on me now."
With a flash of white light, Yugito finally reacted, realizing his intentions.
"No! I can't go head-to-head with him; he's way beyond my level!" Her pupils contracted as the crimson chakra cloak around her intensified. Without a second thought, she turned and bolted.
Whoosh!
The air whistled as Kazuya threw a kunai, glancing over his shoulder to see a half-transformed Killer B closing in.
"You damn punk!" Killer B roared, "You've pushed me too far this time, yo!"
In an instant, the "murder machine" that was Killer B charged straight toward Kazuya.
"Tch… has Killer B gotten this weak?" Kazuya scoffed. "All that fancy swordplay and killer speed, but even so, he can't keep up with me."
Back in the original storyline, this technique was lethal enough to pressure even Mangekyou Sharingan Sasuke, forcing him to his limits.
Looks like…
Killer B had gotten a lot stronger in the years since then!
Without another thought, Kazuya pursued Yugito, leaving Killer B to trail behind.
Soft targets like Yugito's Jinchuriki abilities were too good an opportunity to pass up—why waste it?
Sure, Killer B was formidable, but even Kazuya couldn't keep him under control easily. Against a top-tier opponent like him, a serious fight would be deadly.
But Yugito? That was a different story. Kazuya could manage her.
And so, on the battlefield, a strange chase began.
Yugito, half-transformed into her tailed beast, scrambled to evade Kazuya's relentless pursuit, unable to mount a proper defense before she was pushed to flee again.
Meanwhile, Killer B chased after them in a rage, his pace failing to match Kazuya's speed.
"You little Konoha punk!" Killer B shouted. "Stop right there! Face me like a real man if you've got the guts!"
"Damn it!" he cursed as he sprinted. "You dirty, slimy Anbu jerk—my brother was right about you!"
Yugito could hear Killer B's furious voice echoing behind her.
"Yugito, you idiot! Stop running and hold him off! Together we can take this Anbu scum down!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
As Killer B shouted in anger, Yugito unleashed powerful punches, shattering the ground with each blow. The earth shook around her as if an earthquake were underway.
She cursed internally. Hold this Anbu off?
Easy for him to say. This guy's power was as strong as a tailed beast, and his speed was absurd! If she slipped up even a bit, she'd end up flattened!
Why don't you take a shot at him, B?
If you can't handle it, don't talk big!
Gritting her teeth, Yugito fled in frustration. Why does he keep targeting me? Can't he go after B? He's the stronger one here!
Kazuya, however, had his own game to play. Explosions of raw strength filled the air as he caught up with Yugito, his attacks like a whip keeping her on the run. Every ninja from the Hidden Cloud unlucky enough to be caught nearby quickly met a swift, brutal end.
Before long, a vacuum of space a few hundred meters wide appeared on the battlefield, cleared of anyone unlucky enough to linger too close.
In the midst of it all, Kazuya pursued Yugito while keeping Killer B at bay, maintaining an air of calm control. This greatly reduced the burden on the Konoha forces nearby, who instantly felt the shift in the tide.
[You've picked up 400 points of Chakra]
[You've picked up 500 points of Chakra]
[You've picked up 800 points of Tailed Beast Power]
[You've picked up 600 points of Tailed Beast Power]
[You've picked up 400 points of Tailed Beast Power]
[Your Tailed Beast Power has leveled up to lv4 (0/100,000)]
…
The notifications were coming fast and furious.
Within moments, Kazuya's Tailed Beast Power leveled up again.
Level 4!
This was chakra on par with Kage-level forces!
Inside his core, the immense Tailed Beast energy formed into a burning red seed. It radiated powerful energy, reinforcing his body and chakra pathways from within.
This new transformation resembled a higher level of tailed-beast form—without losing consciousness or coating himself in the standard crimson chakra cloak, Kazuya had managed to enhance his combat capabilities!
"Not bad at all..."
Kazuya was quite pleased.
While jinchuriki are powerful, they have two major flaws:
First, apart from Naruto, most of them look rather monstrous in tailed beast form. Second, they face certain death if the tailed beast is extracted.
Now, with his tailed beast power, Kazuya had neither of these drawbacks.
This was a more refined, perfected version of tailed beast energy.
In an instant, when Kazuya's tailed beast power leveled up to LV4, his attack strength surged yet again, causing the fleeing Yugito Nii to realize something was seriously wrong.
Boom!
A shockwave erupted, and dust billowed into the air.
This time, the ground within a hundred-meter radius split open and sunk by two meters from the impact.
It was unreal!
Yugito's expression changed drastically.
No way out.
She was trapped.
Time to go all out!
Yugito was furious. She was a Kage-level shinobi, after all, and being chased around like this was humiliating.
"Damned Anbu! You're going to pay for this!"
Yugito was livid. Her eyes turned white as her crimson chakra cloak morphed into a deep blue.
In a flash, a terrifying blue demon cat appeared on the battlefield.
Roar!!!
She had fully transformed into the tailed beast!
The blue beast snarled and launched a massive fireball at Kazuya.
This needed to end fast!
Yugito gritted her teeth—she could only hold this form for a short while before exhaustion would leave her defenseless.
So she never used this state unless necessary. But that Konoha Anbu had finally driven her to the edge.
Boom!!!
The fireball exploded, creating a massive blast of fire that reached high into the sky.
Even Kazuya was thrown back through the smoke and flames.
In mid-air, a figure with a reddish hue charged at him—Killer B, who had finally caught up after being kited around for so long!
"Got you now!"
"Dance, yeah! Stingin' like a bee! B-Style, comin' at ya!"
"Strike!"
In an instant, Killer B wielded seven or eight long blades like shooting stars, piercing through Kazuya's body from behind.
Slash! Slash! Slash!
A brutal scene unfolded as the blades went in.
But before the surrounding shinobi could even gasp, Kazuya's seemingly impaled body burst into a flash of fire, exploding in a fiery blast.
"Damn it!"
"Not this trick again!"
Killer B shouted, furious.
He'd been tricked—again!
That damn Anbu! You're gonna pay for this!
But no matter how angry Killer B was, his speed couldn't save him now. He was engulfed by the fiery explosion.
