Chapter 568: Six Against One
Swish…
Tobi's sharp splinter inches closer to Tsunade's neck.
HAAH…
Tsunade clenches her fist and stomps her foot on the ground, shattering the earth and creating a crater in the process.
She swings her elbow backwards and smashes it into Tobi's guts.
Bang…
The force behind Tsunade's elbow shatters the outer white Zetsu shell covering Tobi.
Shoom…
The force sends him flying, and he smashes across several boulders and trees along the way.
Swish…
Tobi performs a backflip in mid-air and forces himself to slow down by turning his hands into wood and pinning them to the ground.
He only stops after travelling almost a hundred metres.
Bleurgh…
Tobi spits some blood from his mouth. The blood dyes the white mask red. He clutches his stomach in pain, and the white shell around his stomach slowly regenerates.
Tsunade frowns as she notices the powerful regeneration of the Zetsu shell.
"This chakra… it's Grandpa's chakra." Tsunade recognizes White Zetsu's Hashirama cells.
"So, you are trying to use the power of my clan against me?" She scoffs and clenches her fist.
Bang…
Tsunade infuses chakra into her feet and fist. She stomps on the ground and flashes towards Tobi at an incredible speed.
Tobi also senses the threat of Tsunade's attack.
He quickly infuses chakra in his hands and makes a series of rapid hand signs.
BAM…
Tobi slams his hand on the ground and murmurs.
"Wood Release: Deep Forest Emergence,"
Rumble… Rumble…
The ground in between Tsunade and Tobi trembles. Multiple sprouts erupt from the ground. These sprouts turn into saplings and then grow into full blows trees within seconds, creating a vast forest between Tsunade and Tobi.
Bang…
Tsunade's punch lands on the trees in the forest and destroys a major portion of them. However, the sheer number of trees is too numerous to destroy within seconds.
Tobi also maintains his distance from Tsunade and directs his palm towards Tsunade. He controls the remaining trees in the forest to attack Tsunade.
Tobi supplies chakra to the tree to accelerate their growth and attack Tsunade with their sharp spear-like branches.
Swoosh… Swoosh…
Tsunade rapidly manoeuvrers through the forest and dodges the strikes of the trees. She infuses more chakra into her feet and leaps into the air.
Bang…
Her jumps destroy another portion of trees. She reaches outside the range of the trees and spots Tobi from the height. She plunges to the ground after reaching the maximum height of her jump.
Bang…
While falling, Tsunade kicks the air with her chakra-infused foot and changes direction in mid-air, much to Tobi's surprise.
"What the…"
Tsunade flies towards Tobi like a missile.
"Damn it!"
Tobi claps his palm and creates a protective wooden shell around him.
Bang…
Tsunade's punch lands on the wooden shell.
Boom…
A storm of chakra rises behind Tsunade. She compresses the entire chakra into her fist and continues her strike.
Bang…
The wooden dome explodes into several splinters, destroying it in the process. Tsunade's punch continues towards the Tobi and strikes him straight into the guts.
BOOM…
A massive crater forms around her in the impact area, and Tobi is once again sent flying by Tsunade's attack. His body slams into a nearby hall and lodges into it. The force behind Tsunade's attack crates across the surface of the hill, resulting in a landslide.
Rumble… Rumble…
The entire hall collapses on top of Tobi.
"Strong!"
Kushina stares at the entire battle with interest.
"Tsunade Nii-san is too strong!" Once again, she praises Tsunade's raw strength.contemporary romance
"Wow, so cool!" Ayaka also cheers for Tsunade alongside Kushina.
Even the shinobis at the HQ are shocked at the sight.
"So, this is the true strength of the Lady Hokage." They gasp in shock.
Tsunade rapidly flickers towards the collapsed hill and glances at its remains.
'I know it's not enough to kill him since not even a massive meteor could kill him, then being buried beneath a hill is not a big deal.'
As if right on cue,
Rumble… Rumble…
The surrounding ground trembles.
Bang…
A massive wood hand erupts out of the ground and strikes Tsunade.
Swoosh…
Tsunade dodges back and avoids the attack.
Rumble… Rumble…
The shaking continues, and a massive wood golem slowly crawls out of the remains of the mountain. Tobi is sitting atop the golem's shoulder.
'I can't summon that giant Wood Buddha for the time being. Not that it requires a large amount of chakra, but it also requires some preparation.' Tobi shakes his head.
'If even this golem can't win, then I will just give up and escape.'
Tsunade narrows her eyes as she recognizes the giant wood golem. She has read several scrolls of wood release techniques and jutsu within the clan records of the Senju clan.
Each wood release user created their unique wood release techniques. And her grandpa Hashirama Senju, being the latest wood release user of the Senju clan, had the most arsenal of wood release techniques.
Reading and learning the techniques is one thing, using the battle and mastering their use is another.
'I can't compete with him in terms of only the wood release technique. I don't have a shred of experience in wood release compared to him. Who could actually be?' Tsunade' suspicion rises.
Paired with the kidnapping of Yamato, the number of suspects in her mind narrows.
'If he is Yamato, then why is he working with the enemy? Did he betray the village? No… that's not likely the case.' Tsunade shakes her head.
'I have to unmask him first to stop him.'
"Very well!"
Tsunade activates the first mode of her new Creation Rebirth Seal. Black lines spread across her body, raising her strength by several folds. Tsunade clenches her fists as she senses the increase in her strength.
'This is the first time I am using this new seal. So, I don't have an estimate of my new strength.'
She glances at the giant wood golem.
'I will test my strength against him.'
Tsunade kicks the ground and leaps in the air.
--------------------
Naruto places the sealing talisman on top of the two transformed versions two Jinchurikis. The runes on the fuinjutsu seal release a bright light and several fuinjutsu seals restrict the chakra of the jinchurikis.
The red-tailed beast chakra around them slowly recedes to their faces.
"It's not over yet!"
Swish… swish… swish…
Obito makes a series of hand signs and makes a Ram seal in front of his Rinnegan.
Thump…
A violent pulse of chakra beats through the bodies of all six jinchurikis.
Whoosh…
Naruto also senses the change in the jinchuriki's chakra.
"Naruto, they are about to come out!" Kurama warns him.
Swoosh…
Naruto jumps back and retreats to a safe distance.
Thump…
With another loud thump, the bodies of two Jinchurikis in front of him transform into their sealed-tailed beast.
Suddenly, a humongous Bakeneko with cobalt blue and black appears in front of Naruto. The flame pattern of the giant Bakeneko is similar to a Kasha Yokai and its eyes are heterochromatic. The left eye of the giant cat is green, while the right eye is yellow.
ROOARR…
The giant two-tails release a roar that generates powerful shockwaves.
Naruto crosses his arms in front of his body to withstand the shockwaves.
Fu, who is beside Yugito, also transforms into a massive blue-armoured Kabutomushi beetle. Six of its seven tails resemble green insect wings, along with an actual seventh tail that is pointed like a spear at the end. All of its tails grow from the end of its abdomen. The stem of the tail is green, but the wings are orange. Its eyes seem to be covered by a helmet-like skull, from inside of which an orange glow can be seen.
It also has spike protrusions on its shoulders and a row of slits on each shoulder, and six legs, three on each side. The blue armour also covered the legs, except for the extreme ends, which are green. It has two pincers with three parts on its face, covering a mouth full of sharp teeth. On its back behind its head, it has a large two-sectioned horned protrusion.
ROOAR…
Seven-tails also release a chakra-infused roar, increasing the pressure on Naruto.
The sudden exponential rise in chakra destroys the sealing talismans around their body, since those sealing talismans were never meant to seal a tailed beast.
A similar transformation happens on the other side of the battlefield. Han, Roshi, Utakata, and Oogura also transform into their respective tailed beasts.
Swoosh…
Obito flickers towards the tailed beast and stands behind them to take cover.
"Gamaken-san, you should leave." Jiraiya senses the danger and asks Gamaken to leave.
"Take care, Jiraiya-san!" Gamaken bids him farewell and disappears in a puff of white smoke.
"Six against one! Let's do it!" Naruto bumps his fist.
