Kurama was furious, "If you do such stupid things again, don't mention my name, Kurama. It's embarrassing. Listen to me in the next battle."
"I understand." Naruto couldn't lift his head after being scolded, but he could hear Kurama's concern in the scolding, so he was actually happy.
Kurama suddenly felt a chill, but thinking it was nothing, he turned and forgot about it. Squatting in the sealed space, he said to Naruto, "The opponent can't fully control the Tailed Beast chakra. The sand on him is formed by the leaking Tailed Beast chakra. Although it looks like sand, it's actually the Tailed Beast chakra condensed into a body."
"But because he can't control the Tailed Beast chakra, there are gaps in his defense."
Naruto looked at Gaara rushing towards him and suddenly noticed the small legs under the huge body. His eyes lit up, "His lower body isn't fully covered by the Tailed Beast chakra!"
"That's right." Kurama nodded, "What you need to do is lure him. Although he's lost his mind, he will instinctively protect his weak spots. So you need to lure him to expose his weak spot and then take him down in one move. Got it?"
Naruto got excited and nodded repeatedly, "I got it."
Kurama nodded again, "Good. Your tactical planning isn't strong, but you always come up with unexpected tricks. So I won't guide you on tactics. Figure it out yourself."
"No problem!" Naruto dodged Gaara's attack and quickly formed hand seals, "Ninja Art: Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu!"
Gaara heard the sound of smoke rising below and slapped his hand out: "Ninja Art: Sand Shower!"
In the sky, countless tiny grains of sand gathered with the sound of smoke rising. As Gaara was enveloped in smoke, the sand in the sky suddenly fell down like a dense rain, each grain like a bullet.
Following the sound of the rising smoke, more smoke sounds kept coming, like a grand concert with intense drumbeats.
The place where Gaara stood was the only spot not attacked by Ninjutsu. He looked at the smoke in the sky, a sinister smile appeared on his face, and saliva dripped from the corner of his mouth like a hungry beast seeing food.
The smoke slowly dissipated, and at the moment the smoke disappeared, the raindrops formed by the sand also vanished in the air. At this moment, Gaara's pupils suddenly shrank, and he couldn't even maintain his smile.
He saw around him, whether on the ground, in the sky, on the trees,
or in the distant forest, countless Narutos holding Kunai were looking at him. Some were smiling lewdly, others had serious faces, and some even mimicked Gaara's current look and made a 'rua' sound.
Gaara: "..."
Is there a difference in our understanding of the Clone Jutsu? The clones around here probably add up to more than five hundred.
Kurama: "..."
Is this how you waste the chakra I lent you? Continuously using the Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu, and casting it again the moment the clones are killed by the Sand Shower, creating this situation. Without the Sand Shower, the number could probably double.
The Narutos raised their Kunai: "I will never forgive anyone who wants to destroy the village!"
Then a group of Narutos charged forward with a 'woah', bloodshot eyes appearing in Gaara's eyes, and his face filled with a sinister killing intent. He didn't retreat but charged towards the hundreds of Naruto's shadow clones, continuously killing them like an unstoppable force.
The sound of Kunai falling to the ground and Shuriken slicing through the air kept ringing out. Countless Shuriken flew towards him, mixed with Naruto's voice saying, "Whose Shuriken is this? It hit me!"
There were too many. Even though Gaara kept killing Naruto's shadow clones, he couldn't stop the barrage of attacks. He looked at the Shuriken flying in the sky and gritted his teeth, choosing to block them.
There was no choice. There were too many. In this situation, if he didn't block, he could get hit in the eyes or lower body, which would not only make him lose his fighting ability but also put him at a disadvantage. Even if he wasn't thinking clearly, Gaara would make the best choice he could.
The sand dutifully formed a shield in front of him. Countless Shuriken fell on the sand, but with Shukaku's chakra strengthening it, the Shuriken couldn't break through the sand's defense. However, Naruto's shadow clones were still there.
At the moment Gaara chose to defend, the sand gathered in front of him, blocking his view. The Narutos seized this moment and without hesitation, pulled out their Kunai and charged forward like a suicide squad.
But the next moment, Gaara showed that sinister smile again. Seeing Naruto attacking from his side and behind, Gaara clasped his hands together and shouted: "Ninja Art: Sand Burial!"
Sand Burial, a large area-of-effect Ninjutsu, ground the rocks beneath into what seemed like endless sand, surging in all directions. At this moment, except for the ground under Gaara's feet, the sand surged everywhere like a huge wave on the sea, engulfing all the Narutos.
Gaara laughed maniacally: "I'll kill you!!!"
"Ninja Art: Sand Burial!"
Naruto and his clones were caught in the waves and didn't even have time to react. The powerful force pressed down on them, and the sound of the shadow clones disappearing kept ringing out. Out of the hundreds of shadow clones, less than a hundred were left after these two attacks.
Naruto looked at Gaara in the center with a shocked expression and swallowed hard: "Kurama, didn't you say that Jinchuriki influenced by Tailed Beasts can't use precise ninjutsu?"
"..." Kurama was silent for a moment, then replied softly, "Do those two ninjutsu look like precise ninjutsu to you?"
Naruto: "..."
Indeed, the precise ninjutsu Kurama mentioned refers to those that are relatively difficult and require a certain level of chakra control, like Sand Binding Coffin. But Sand Shuriken, Sand Rain, Sand Burial are not in this category because these ninjutsu only need to be activated and then continuously enhanced with chakra.
Control? What's that? Just use it, no need for control.
Most of Gaara's ninjutsu are of this type, so he can keep using them even in a half-Tailed Beast state, which was a bit beyond Kurama's expectations.
Naruto gritted his teeth and looked down: "This guy is really troublesome."
Gaara, looking at the destroyed Naruto clones, was extremely excited: "Uzumaki Naruto! Is this all you've got? Come out! Let me kill you!"
The sand shield in front of Gaara collapsed, and he spread his arms and looked ahead. The dozens of Naruto shadow clones had ugly expressions.
Well, the next second, those ugly expressions turned into funny ones.
Just as Gaara lost his sand shield and spread his arms, his guard was at its lowest, and he didn't even notice the three shuriken Naruto had thrown at his feet earlier.
"Bang!"
With the sound of the Transformation Jutsu being undone, three Narutos appeared right in front of Gaara. Gaara's laughter stopped, and a look of shock appeared on his face, but it was just shock.
Two Narutos grabbed Gaara's arms from the left and right, using the power provided by Kurama's chakra to briefly hold Gaara down. Although the time was short, it was just enough for Naruto to complete his next plan.
The third Naruto held a kunai with explosive tags tied to it and stood behind Gaara, shouting, "I found your weak spot!"
"Konohagakure Secret Taijutsu Technique: One Thousand Years of Death!"
Gaara: "..."
Kurama: "..."
