Chapter 6 - Chapter 6: Fighting

Uzushio 

"Boom, Boom..." 

Looking at the explosions around them Azuno's expression darkens, 

"I didn't expect that kind of strategy!" he said 

Everyone around could see what was happening.

What the invaders were doing, and that was not good for them.

In the initial hours of the attack, everything was going well, with the traps and the surprise attack they were able to severely damage the four nations' forces. 

They had expected that they would have to regroup their strength, change tactics, and take time to adopt a new strategy, but they had managed to surprise them.

Nearly simultaneously the four ninja villages were able to adopt a new simpler strategy 

"Boom!"

Everyone at the commandment center looked and felt the massive powers of the Tails beast using their tails beast bomb, chakra cloak, and other attack special.

They were ravaging the forest clearing up the path and offering a safe passage for their army who progressed rapidly from all sides.

"This is surprising! They were able to reorganize themself so fast and offer a coordinated response, and they did it so quickly,"

"Maybe someone is leading them all?!" said Azuno to the others 

"I doubt that they were able to put their difference aside to follow one leader," 

"Well, I don't know how but they are doing it..." 

While they were arguing about the speed of the response of their enemy and how it made things even harder for them the old Ashina looked to the side of the ninja of Suna unflinchingly 

'The honorable sibling of Suna, huh,' he thought 

"To think that the weakest of the four will be the ones to cause us so much trouble," he murmured

"It doesn't matter that much anyway," he said slowly

Azuno who was looking at his father just responded to that sentence 

"On that, I disagree," 

But without arguing he just turned to a group of his clansmen standing ready for what followed 

"Dear brothers and sisters, it seems that the answers of our enemies have been faster and more coordinated than we thought, still this is nothing that we aren't prepared for, after all, we are prepared to welcome even death itself, gracefully and with the pride of our ancestor and to allow our young to survive in this perilous world..." he said 

"Yeah!!" they responded in unison 

"You know what to do, let's make them regret coming here," 

Yeah!!" with another loud cheer 

After a few seconds, Azuno bit his finger, and after a few hand signs he invoked a giant bird, 

following his example they all started their invocations and nearly immediately the entire field was covered by hundreds of invocations of all types, shapes, and kinds.

But the most prevalent ones were the flying ones like birds and savage beasts that appeared 

 "Let's go!!!" with a roar and their Daimyo Azuno at their head and a few others the Uzumaki went to the encounter of their enemies by soaring into the air, on the ground or underground.

Ashina just looked at his son with a proud smile without saying a word, after all everything had already been said before turning to monitor the situation once more.

****

"Boom," 

Looking at the destruction caused by the eight tails who were only partially transformed and were only displaying two of the eight tails, the ninjas of Kumo were in awe. 

Looking at Futai the actual jinchûriki of the eight-tail Yosai the leader of Kumo on this attack could understand the fear of people for the tail beast, even him after knowing Futai for years still felt some chill on his spine at the thought of him losing control here,

While he was thinking one of his sensory ninjas appeared beside him

"sir! They are coming," 

"What?!" he exclaimed 

"About a hundred chakra signature coming from the front," 

"Only a hundred, what are they thinking," he said hearing the rapport, he then turned to his thousands of men behind him 

"Prepare yourself, enemy incoming," 

"Hargg, Roar," 

Entering an open field a group of red-haired ninjas mounting beasts and running appeared on the battlefield 

"Attack!" they screamed as they jumped toward their enemies 

Yosai was still on his guard so he wasn't pretty shaken by what was happening 

'Are they just desperate or do they have a plan,' he thought but in this situation, he couldn't allow himself to hesitate and loudly said

"Blast them Futai," and that is exactly what he did opening his mouth the red beast launched a massive bomb toward them. 

But before it reached them a group of five old men moved in front of everyone massive golden chains protruding from their bodies from interwinded together to form a protective barrier. 

Like to test the resistance of that barrier the black ball of energy arrived at that exact moment 

the tail beast bomb after coming in contact with the barrier bent it, like a bullet hitting a wall made of rubber, and when everyone started to notice that he was pushed back 

"BOOM" it exploded creating a massive smoke screen 

"huh," Yasoi smille at the spectacle 

'No matter what they had in mind charging like that was foolish' 

It is common knowledge that a tail beast is an unstoppable force and attacking them without extensive preparation was stupid, he had forgotten who they were dealing with but was reminded of that when he saw the group of Uzumaki shoots out from there as nothing happened 

Of course, it was just a momentary shock as he immediately sent his force on the offensive 

However, before they could even clash the ground below began to shake throwing the forces of Kumo of balance and below them, all types of beasts or animals crawling underground shouted out

Giants moles, badgers, and ants started to rampage in the army of Kumo 

"Fight back, don't let them take the upper hand," Yasoi screamed to his men, and even in this chaos he started to give orders

'How did they arrive below us without anyone noticing!' he thought anxiously but not for long as an experienced ninja he quickly formulated a strategy to destroy his enemy 

"Use that opportunity to surround them and kill them," he said and the orders that he gave were now oriented toward the accomplishment of that goal 

"Raiton: thunder strike" After electrocuting a ninja of Uzushio to the bone he turned toward their greatest asset in that fight 

"Roarrr," 

And he saw with pleasure that Futai with four tails was tearing through the flesh of their enemies slashing some in half and killing them instantaneously 

"Great everything is going back on track," 

But then he saw something strange, one of the old men who stopped the first attack was now sneaking up on Futai, 

He advanced slowly and carefully like a hunter stalking his prey, a bad feeling started to creep in, he looked around and was able to identify other people doing the same thing, and then he realized 

'They are targeting the tail beast,' 

Jumping toward him he shouted

"They are targeting the tail beast, kill them!!" 

After the words of their leader, the Kumo ninjas tried to intervene realizing what was happening but 

"Clang, Clang," like mad men everyone started to move to hinder then 

sound of chains sounded around and like in the initial attack the glowing chains protruding from the body of the five old men intertwined in a matter of seconds trapping the beast with nearly two hundred Kumo ninjas in a massive prison.

"It worked," shouted one of the red-hair as he noticed that the situation was in their favor 

"Kill those five and free Futai quickly," 

he just said that he saw someone arriving on the back of a massive eagle followed by other birds with people on their back 

Azuno seeing that everything was going as planned smiled happily he turned to his men and said 

"Proceed to the next battlefield," he said before jumping of his mount

"Understood, Good luck sir!" They then continued without even looking back neither their Daimyo nor their clansmen who were now losing their advantage due to the overwhelming number of their opponents.

After the initial shock that took many of their comrades, the situation was quickly changing the Uzumaki were now being slaughtered, and they were focused on defending the five old men in the center of the battlefield protected by their clansmen 

Azuno who had jumped from his eagle passed through that barrier like it was not there and still in the air and started his attack 

(Adamantine chain)

A glowing golden chain shouts out of his right arm like an arrow toward the tail beast 

"Boom," 

The chain hit Futai who was too slow to avoid it in the stomach and buried him deeply underground 

"Tap," falling gracefully on the ground Azuno looked at the ninja surrounding him with a smile 

"It been a while since I fought, tried not to die too quickly," he said,

That sentence was enough to infuriate the prideful ninjas of Kumo.
