Kurama had just finished his fight against the other Tailed Beasts.
These Jinchuurikis were trying their best to go past Kurama and confront Araki. They had naturally seen his wide-ranged Jutsus which pretty much annihilated all the Three Great Shinobi Armies. It was far too unreal...
It was like they were looking at a tailed beast even stronger than the Nine-Tails in the human form.
Each one of them tried to go around Kurama, but Kurama was far too quick and strong for them. Moreover, he was in his released state while the others were Jinchuurikis. Staying in the Tailed Beast Mode placed an unreal amount of stress on their bodies.
In terms of speed, other than the Two Tailed Jinchuuriki, none other could hold a candle to Kurama.
The Seven Tailed Beast was the only one capable of flight and was naturally flying towards Araki's position, however, before it could cross the halfway distance, it was bombarded with successive tailed beast bombs from Kurama.
Even the Jinchuurkis were shocked as they felt an overwhelming disparity between themselves and Kurama. Just how could the Nine-Tailed Beast be so strong?
Was it because he was released? A natural controller of nature chakra and knew how to use his chakra perfectly? Or was it just an unfair power granted to him since his birth?!
"It appears that the war has come to an end." Kurama turns his head towards the Araki's location.
There… Kurama saw land painted red. It was painted red with blood!
To Araki's left, Kurama noticed the corpse of a midget old man who was short even by human standards.
Kurama looked at Araki's right and saw some pieces of dark coloured flesh. Clearly, the human who had been cut apart into pieces was none other than the Third Raikage.
Araki had a frown on his face as if he seemed unsatisfied.
'It didn't give me as much joy and satisfaction as I wanted… Whatever, I guess life doesn't exactly work according to my expectations. This was already good enough…' Araki casually shrugged and started moving towards the only people surviving in this war.
The 7 Tailed Beasts from the respective villages who had launched an attack at Konoha…
Soon enough, he appeared next to Kurama and stared at the Seven Jinchuurkis in front of his eyes.
"As you can see, the war has ended. Do you still want to pointlessly struggle against me? You should all realise the difference between our power levels." Araki spoke with a serious look while staring at the 7 Jinchuurki.
It was none other than the Four Tailed Jinchuurki, who answered, "You think you can make us give up in such a manner? You have killed so many shinobi from our villages… This battle won't end until one side is utterly annihilated."
"That's right… I will definitely take revenge for my comrades you killed!"
"I will kill you and take revenge for my brother and father. Weeeeee!"
The Five Tailed Beast and Eight Tailed Beast Jinchuurikis followed up after the Four Tailed Jinchuuriki.
All the Jinchuurikis were radiating fury while staring at Araki. Araki could feel it, it mirrored his own hatred when he wanted to kill the Third Hokage or the Raikage.
A cold smile appeared on his lips as he stared at their faces, "Is that so? Do you think you are qualified to kill me? Come then…"
Even though Araki seemed a lot smaller than them in terms of size, the pressure he generated was immobilizing the massive bodies of the Tailed Beasts for a short interval.
However, soon enough, they started moving.
Kurama was about to rush forwards and intercept some of them, but Araki raised his arm and said, "I will handle them alone…"
Araki continued to walk towards the Tailed Beast. He showed no signs of rushing towards them…
The Tailed Beasts were in a rush; it appeared as if they were in a race to see who would hit Araki first.
The first one in this line was surprisingly the Eight Tailed Beast. Considering its body, it was rather difficult for it to move around. And even more difficult to see it moving at such a pace.
Even from afar, the hatred radiated by the Eight Tailed Jinchuuriki could be clearly felt.
"Sage Art Wood Style: Wood Dragon Jutsu!"
Wood Dragons appeared from underneath the ground and started to coil around each of the 7 Tailed Jinchuuriki's bodies. They were surprised when they felt their bodies restrained by the Wood Chakra and also the fact that the Wood Dragon Jutsu was absorbing their chakra and it was getting stronger.
The Two Tailed Jinchuuriki was the first one to shout out, "Let's go into the Version 1 or Version 2 Mode. The Tailed Beast Mode is being restrained by this strange Wood Chakra…"
Every other Jinchuuriki soundlessly agreed. This was undoubtedly the best idea.
Their large bodies contracted as the Two Tailed Jinchuuriki, Three Tailed Jinchuuriki, and Four Tailed Jinchuuriki went into version 1 mode. While the rest of the Jinchuuriki went into the version 2 mode.
Just as they had changed their modes. Many Jinchuurikis were surprised to find Araki missing from his position.
A moment later, many Jinchuurikis felt a sudden shockwave. They turned their eyes to the location from where this shockwave was generated… The other Jinchuuriki were startled to see Araki and Killer Bee's fists making contact with each other.
A second later, they saw Killer Bee flying away from his location.
Araki looked at the other tailed beast and said with an indifferent look, "Didn't you want to take me down? Come then…I don't have all day."
Although they felt humiliated when they saw Araki talk to them like that, none of them dared to charge at this moment…
They were angered but not utterly stupid.
They knew well aware that this man entirely deserved to look down on all of them.
If anything, he was more of a threat than Kyuubi. While they had fought against Kyuubi, they hadn't sensed much killing intent from Kyuubi. They guessed that Kyuubi only planned to hold them back for some time… Or maybe he just wanted to fight for a longer period, so he didn't kill any Jinchuuriki.
But Senju Araki was different…From his gaze, they felt sharp yet boundless killing intent.
They unconsciously gulped down a mouthful of saliva as they faintly sensed that they wouldn't survive this battle.
However, now that they had sensed such a feeling, it made them want to fight even more violently. Since they wouldn't be surviving, there was no point in holding back any forbidden techniques.
There was little to no possibility for them to survive this battle… But, they still wanted to bet on that slim chance and take their revenge.
However, this slim chance turned to nothing when they started to fight a Taijutsu battle against him.
Even though they had seen Araki in his sage mode overpowering Killer Bee, some of them still thought of fighting against Araki in a Taijutsu battle.
The first one who had done so was none other than the Four Tailed JInchuuriki.
As Araki's punch landed on his chest, he used his other hand to grab hold of the Four Tailed Jinchuuriki and muttered something underneath his breath.
A greenish glow appeared on the Four Tailed Jinchuuriki's body and surprisingly, the Red coloured Chakra Cloak around him vanished.
Araki didn't give him a chance to think this through and punched his head, crushing it then and there!
After the death of the first Jinchuuriki among them… the others soon followed.
