With Kazuya joining the battle, the intensity of the fight surged immediately.
Even Killer Bee, normally brash and overconfident, didn't dare to be careless anymore!
There was no other choice!
Last time, Kazuya had handed him a devastating defeat. Killer Bee knew that if he didn't give everything he had, he could very well die!
Tailed Beast Cloak!
In an instant, Killer Bee's speed and offensive power jumped to an even higher level.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
With each exchange, low rumbling sonic booms echoed, shaking the air violently.
This was the fighting style of a Jinchuriki!
Crushing power and speed!
Against an ordinary ninja, Killer Bee could easily wipe them out in a flash!
However!
The enemy before him was no ordinary ninja!
Shisui's body flickers!
And...
The Anbu Commander—Kazuya!!!
Two of Konoha's most powerful fighters clashing against each other!
This!
Was the ultimate battle between Konoha and the Hidden Cloud Village!
Who was stronger? Who was weaker?
"Ahhh!!"
"Damn it!"
"Ta-na-ru! Baga-ya-ro!"
In a series of ear-piercing sonic booms, Killer Bee, surrounded by his Tailed Beast chakra cloak, was sent flying backward.
Boom!
The impact sent him crashing into a mountain, collapsing it and sending dust flying into the air!
Wham!
Wham!
The terrifying chakra shockwave reverberated, creating a resounding hum.
At this moment.
Kazuya stood motionless, his majestic white god robe swirling in the air without a breeze.
Even the air around him shimmered with ripples from the immense energy emanating from his body.
"How strong..."
Shisui, standing to the side, looked on in utter shock.
In the recent exchanges, even though he was fully engaged in the fight, he had barely touched Killer Bee.
All the output and damage had been Kazuya's doing!
The most frightening part was that Kazuya's speed had reached a point where even Shisui's Sharingan couldn't keep up!
Damn!
Shisui felt like a newbie being carried along by a max-level player on a boss fight!
[You have collected 1000 Chakra points]
[You have collected 2000 Chakra points]
[You have collected 2000 Tailed Beast power]
[You have collected 1500 Tailed Beast power]
[You have collected 500 Sharingan power]
[You have collected 600 Sharingan power]
...
Golden light continued to fly into Kazuya's body.
Behind his mask, Kazuya's expression was one of frustration.
Damn!
Shisui's power was still too weak. He could barely hold his own against two of the Wood Men, but when it came to Killer Bee, he was completely a hindrance!
With such an imbalance in power, it was impossible to harvest high-quality golden light.
What a waste!
Kazuya shook his head.
But he knew better than to demand too much from Shisui.
Right now, Shisui was just a 12-year-old kid!
Having this level of power was already considered extraordinary among the most talented of geniuses!
"Roar!!!"
Suddenly, from the collapsing mountain, a terrifying beast's roar echoed through the air.
Boom!
Boom!
The powerful energy waves surged through the air.
As the smoke cleared, it became evident that Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, had lost his composure and entered his semi-tailed beast transformation.
His body underwent a dramatic change. While still retaining a humanoid form, a massive surge of dark red chakra erupted from him, completely enveloping his body.
Behind him, eight deep crimson tails whipped around violently!
Semi-tailed beast transformation!
The terrifying chakra of the Tailed Beast surged!
This was the final move Naruto used against Pain's Deva Path!
"Roar!!!"
With a roar, the semi-tailed beast Killer Bee opened his mouth, and a black Tailed Beast Ball began to form before him.
"Shisui!"
Kazuya spoke sternly, "You and Kakashi stand by and be ready to retreat at any moment. I'll take over the fight from here!"
Kazuya had initially planned to help Shisui increase his Sharingan power and Indra's bloodline, but he hadn't expected Killer Bee to be so quick to enter his semi-tailed beast transformation after just a few punches!
This wasn't a game!
On the battlefield.
The black Tailed Beast Ball roared toward them.
Vroom! Vroom!
Kazuya opened his right hand, and a massive wave of wind-based chakra exploded out.
Spinning!
Super high-speed rotation!
"Wind Style: Rasengan!!!"
Boom!!!
With a flick of his wrist, the Rasengan shot out, colliding with the black Tailed Beast Ball in an explosive clash.
Boom!!!
A blinding white light erupted into the sky.
The explosion sent shockwaves, blasting outward in all directions.
A hurricane!
Dust and debris flew everywhere!
At this moment, Shisui and Kakashi shielded their eyes from the intense wind with their arms.
"Such powerful force!"
"This is beyond the scope of normal ninjutsu!"
At that instant, Shisui was still processing the battle, but Kakashi—having just witnessed Kazuya's Rasengan for the first time—was utterly stunned, his pupils trembling in awe.
So strong!
This was Kazuya-senpai's technique!?
It was terrifying!
It was a super powerful jutsu capable of standing toe-to-toe with a Tailed Beast!
Amid the raging wind, a figure in white robes fluttered, adding to the drama of the moment. Kakashi's gaze grew hotter.
"Sensei!"
"No..."
"It's Kazuya-senpai!"
At that moment, Kakashi saw the four large characters embroidered on the back of Kazuya's white robes—"Will of Fire"!
This!
This was an unforgettable moment!
From then on, Kakashi vowed never to mistake that towering figure again!
[You have collected 2000 Chakra points]

[You have collected 200 Tailed Beast Ball skill experience]
...
In an instant.
Golden light exploded from the battlefield, non-stop.
In the blink of an eye, Kazuya had gathered nearly 4000 Chakra points and a full 10,000 points of Tailed Beast power!
10,000 points!
It seemed that Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, was taking this seriously!
Now we're talking!
This was the right attitude for a worker!
Kazuya couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.
With Killer Bee, this top-tier worker, this trip to the Hidden Cloud Village had not been in vain!
Whoosh!
In a flash of white light, Kazuya shot forward, following the smoke and debris from the explosion.
Whoosh!
The sound of breaking air echoed.
"Is it from the right?"
Killer Bee's face twisted into a menacing snarl as he muttered, "Yo, you dare to look down on me? I'll make you regret that, oh yeah!!"
Before he could finish his words, his semi-tailed beast chakra cloak shook violently again. A terrifying burst of Tailed Beast chakra exploded from his body.
"Watch me…"
"Thunderbolt Heat Blade!!!"
With that, a massive white bone formed around Killer Bee's elbow, a weapon created by the Eight-Tails' chakra. The killing power was immense.
Boom!
The Thunderbolt Heat Blade struck with incredible precision!
The collision created a shockwave—
"Hmm?"
Killer Bee's expression changed suddenly.
Crack!
In the next moment, Killer Bee saw a piece of blue stone tied to a kunai break apart from his Thunderbolt Heat Blade's impact.
A trap!?
He realized he had been tricked!
Killer Bee's eyes widened in panic as he turned to react, but it was already too late.
A white figure had already flashed from the left, appearing directly behind him!
Boom!!!
Level 5 superhuman strength unleashed!
With a single blow, Killer Bee, in his semi-tailed beast form, was sent flying!
"It's time!"
Kazuya chuckled.
Boom!
A puff of white smoke exploded.
Shadow Clone!
"Now, let's see..."
"Flying Thunder God: Time-Space Gale Flash Strike. Zero Style!"
In an instant.
Several specially made Flying Thunder God kunai shot toward Killer Bee in his semi-tailed beast form.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
White light flickered!
Without hesitation, Kazuya followed the kunai, and after a series of rapid space jumps, his fist—charged with unfathomable power—landed on Killer Bee's semi-tailed beast form.
Boom!
Superhuman strength unleashed!
In midair, Killer Bee was blasted backward again.
But it wasn't over!
Kazuya's Shadow Clone instantly appeared!
Boom!
Boom!
The two beams of white light shot across the sky like meteors, blazing with intensity!
The brilliant white light illuminated the entire battlefield!
Killer Bee, his body cloaked in dark red chakra, was sent hurtling through the sky like a cannonball, blood pouring down like a torrential rain.
Boom!
Boom!
The explosive force was so great that it felt like it could tear the very sky apart!
Flying Thunder God: Time-Space Gale Flash Strike. Zero Style!!!
A perfect explosion of speed and raw power!!!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The hurricane-like winds swept down from the sky, causing Shisui and Kakashi on the ground to feel the full brunt of the violent force.
Shadow-level!
Elite Jonin!
Even these two legendary talents couldn't help but step back in astonishment, their faces filled with shock at the dazzling white streaks above.
"It's too violent!"
"Is this the power of a god!?"
They exchanged a glance, both seeing the same terror and disbelief in each other's eyes.
Crack!
Crack!
Crack!!!
Finally, it shattered!
"Rasengan!"
Two Rasengans, one after the other, slammed into Killer Bee's semi-tailed beast form.
At that moment, there was no escape. The overwhelming, super-shadow-level force exploded on Killer Bee's body!
