In the next second, Five-Tails Killer Bee abruptly moved the arm protecting his face.
"Voom—!"
Countless devastating red Tailed Beast Chakra shells, like a rainstorm, shot toward the tiny figure on the ground, blotting out the sky.
The overwhelming red Tailed Beast Chakra shells tore through the sky.
The aura of destruction rushed toward him.
Aokawa's expression was more solemn than ever before.
His figure turned into a series of intermittent white afterimages, moving in a zigzag pattern through the narrow gaps between the Chakra shells.
A Chakra shell grazed his back and shot into the lake below.
The water was instantly and silently evaporated, forming a massive void; the surrounding lake water poured back in, letting out a roar.
The terrifying high-temperature steam and shockwaves constantly interfered with his dodging.
Five-Tails Killer Bee's attack didn't stop for a moment, and the Tailed Beast Bomb barrage became even denser.
Like an inescapable net, it completely sealed off all of Aokawa's dodging routes.
No way to dodge!
After a desperate dodge, Aokawa's figure was forced to a halt.
He slammed his hands together in a prayer sign.
"Water Release: Multiple Sloped Water Wall!"
A massive amount of lake water was drawn out by him, constructing a huge arched barrier in front of him.
The barrier consisted of over a dozen constantly slanting hexagonal water shields, interlocking with each other in a peculiar configuration.
In the distant dense forest, Suzuki Shinji and the others had thought Aokawa was certainly dead.
When they saw that strangely shaped water wall, everyone was stunned.
"What is that?"
In the next second, they witnessed a sight they would never forget in their lives.
The devastating red Tailed Beast Chakra shells slammed hard into the peculiar arched water wall.
The expected scene of the water wall being instantly destroyed did not occur.
The red Tailed Beast Chakra shells hit the sloped water shields and actually changed trajectory, driven by the high-speed vortices on the shields' surfaces!
The Chakra shells were "deflected" toward the sky on both sides!
For a moment, countless red Tailed Beast Chakra shells were diverted by the water wall, like blooming fireworks of death, causing even more terrifying secondary destruction around the Battlefield.
Suzuki Shinji's mouth opened slightly, his heart deeply shaken.
"Is this... Water Release: Water Wall?"
"Using sloped angles to disperse the impact force, and then using high-speed rotating water flow for a secondary deflection..."
"Is this the world of a Genius? He just casually crafts a Ninjutsu perfectly suited for the Battlefield."
"This understanding of Chakra nature and form transformation... this creativity..."
"I'm afraid he really isn't inferior to the Second Lord of back then!"
Uchiha Tetsubi, Hinata Iruha, and the others were completely speechless.
They just stared blankly at the water curtain that remained standing under the baptism of Tailed Beast Bombs, feeling their worldview of Ninja being overturned.
In the field.
Five-Tails Killer Bee had already descended from the air, stepping onto the water's surface.
It watched its attack being neutralized and let out a roar; the Tailed Beast Bomb barrage from its mouth bombarded the water wall even more frantically.
Aokawa's face was pale, and beads of sweat the size of beans slid down his forehead.
This thing really can damn well shoot.
Ninjutsu are usually released all at once; maintaining a water curtain continuously like this, even for someone with his high Chakra control, wouldn't last long.
His Byakugan vision quickly swept the surroundings, his gaze fixing on Nii Yugito on a nearby rock.
The next moment!
The water wall dispersed without warning.
Aokawa's figure suddenly vanished, appearing instantly beside Nii Yugito.
Nii Yugito had just come to her senses from the intense pain, only to see a hand grab her collar.
"Bastard! What are you doing?" Nii Yugito's scream of despair and anger echoed across the entire Battlefield.
The next moment, she was held in front of Aokawa like a shield, facing the Tailed Beast Bombs that Killer Bee was turning toward them.
Even with Nii Yugito in front, Five-Tails Killer Bee's crimson beastly eyes showed no fluctuation; the attack continued.
Seeing the Tailed Beast Bombs approaching, at the critical moment, a surge of ghostly blue Chakra erupted from within Nii Yugito's body, forming a Chakra cloak that barely blocked the front.
Boom, boom, boom!
The Tailed Beast Bombs continuously hit Nii Yugito; even with the Two-Tails' protection, Nii Yugito was still in unbearable pain.
"You two bastards—!"
Nii Yugito looked at Aokawa, who was using her as a shield, and then at Killer Bee, who continued to attack regardless of her life or death; tears of despair flowed from her eyes.
Aokawa grabbed Nii Yugito and kept running; seeing this situation, he inwardly spat.
You thick-browed, big-eyed Killer Bee—during the Fourth War, you were all smiles looking at someone's vacuum.
Now on the Battlefield, you're not soft-hearted at all, driving her to her death.
You've made her cry; you really can go that far.
"However, it seems this guy's rationality has been suppressed!" Aokawa guessed as he saw the lack of emotion in Five-Tails Killer Bee's eyes.
Killer Bee's coordination with the Eight-Tails at this point probably hasn't reached the level of the Two-Tails; he remembered it being mentioned in the original work.
The relationship between the Two-Tails and Nii Yugito was even better than that between the Eight-Tails and Killer Bee.
If the coordination isn't in place, the Tailed Beast Chakra itself is extremely violent, making it hard to maintain rationality.
Nii Yugito's Chakra cloak quickly dimmed after blocking several Tailed Beast Bombs in a row, on the verge of collapsing.
Aokawa seized this precious breathing room.
The instant her Chakra was exhausted, his palm moved like lightning.
Using Gentle Fist techniques, he struck several of her major acupoints again!
The flow of Chakra was completely sealed; Nii Yugito didn't even have time to groan before losing consciousness again.
Then, Aokawa spotted the direction where Kakashi and the others were hiding and suddenly exerted force in his arm.
Nii Yugito's soft body was thrown over like a package!
He didn't speak, but he knew Kakashi and the others would definitely understand his meaning.
Whether it was the Two-Tails Jinchuriki or the Two-Tails itself, they were of great value to the Village.
After the battle, he could use this to exchange for some resources or support.
As for becoming a Tailed Beast Jinchuriki, it wasn't that he hadn't thought about it.
Tailed Beast Chakra can basically be seen as a large power bank.
But its violent Chakra contradicted his high control over Quincy energy.
Furthermore, the Two-Tails and Nii Yugito had a very good relationship; if he really extracted it and killed Yugito, then sealed it into himself...
He probably wouldn't be able to get along with it in the future, and it would be even harder to tame than the Nine-Tails.
The thoughts in his mind lasted only an instant as his eyes tightly fixed on Killer Bee in the field.
In the next moment, Killer Bee's Chakra surged again, and the tails behind him became six.
