Nine magatama-shaped patterns are distributed within, slowly rotating, radiating a terrifying gaze that disregards everything and reigns supreme over all living beings.
That's the Rinne Sharingan!
And it's the Rinnegan with tomoe!
Simply looking into their eyes is enough to freeze one's soul.
"This...this is the Ten-Tails?"
Sasuke stood inside the Nine-Tails' head, gazing up at the colossal shadow that blotted out the sky, his palms involuntarily sweating as he gripped the Kusanagi sword.
He once thought that the Nine-Tails after Naruto's complete tailed beast transformation was the limit of its size.
But the monster before them was several times larger than the Nine-Tailed Fox!
The oppressive feeling, purely from its size and mass, akin to facing a natural disaster, almost crushes the fighting spirit of ordinary people.
Naruto, controlling the golden Nine-Tails, sensed Sasuke's momentary wavering.
He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the equally churning horror within him.
The voice traveled to Sasuke's ears through the chakra link: "Hey, Sasuke, are you... scared?"
Upon hearing this, Sasuke snapped back to reality and rolled his eyes at the other person.
Under immense pressure, the Mangekyou Sharingan burned even brighter: "Who would be afraid of such an ugly monster?! Don't be ridiculous!"
However, verbal courage appears so pale and powerless in the face of an absolute power disparity.
The battle began abruptly with a roar from the Ten-Tails that seemed to come from the ancient primordial era!
The Eight-Tailed Gyūki launched the first attack, roaring as its massive body unleashed a speed disproportionate to its size.
The thick octopus tail, wrapped with lightning chakra, lashed out like a giant whip at the Ten-Tails' leg joints!
At the same time, it opened its mouth and spat out a condensed Tailed Beast Ball, which shot straight into the chest of the Ten-Tails!
Faced with this combined attack that was enough to destroy a mountain, the Ten-Tails' reaction was so simple it was despairing.
It didn't even make any obvious dodging or defensive maneuvers.
The Tailed Beast Ball, containing destructive power, was about to strike its chest at the last moment.
The ten-tailed fox's eyelids, covered with a rough layer of keratin, blinked only very slightly, as if shooing away a fly!
An invisible, incredibly powerful repulsive force arose out of nowhere!
The Eight-Tails' Tailed Beast Ball struck as if it had crashed into an invisible, indestructible wall.
It suddenly stopped in mid-air, and was then forcefully bounced back along the same path!
The speed was even faster than on the way there!
"what?!"
Killer Bee was horrified inside the Eight-Tails and frantically tried to control it to twist its body.
He narrowly escaped being bombarded by his own Tailed Beast Ball.
The rebounding Tailed Beast Ball crashed into the ground in the distance, creating a huge mushroom cloud.
At the same time, the Eight-Tails' octopus tail, wrapped in lightning, lashed out hard at the Ten-Tails' leg.
"clang--!!!"
A dull, resounding boom, like striking ancient black iron, exploded out!
The lightning exploded on the Ten-Tails' rough skin, but left only a shallow, almost negligible white mark.
Not even a single crack was created!
Instead, an indescribable force of recoil came, making the entire tail of the Eight-Tailed Fox feel numb and tingly.
The massive body staggered backward several steps uncontrollably, almost falling to the ground!
The Ten-Tails seemed to be enraged by the repeated "harassment" and let out a low roar.
The sound wasn't particularly loud, but it sent a chill down the spines of everyone who heard it, making them feel dizzy and disoriented.
With a roar, it casually waved one of its arms.
It was a gigantic arm, comparable to a mountain, made up of countless twisted wooden tentacles and chakra condensation!
With just a swing of his arm forward, the resulting wind pressure swept across the battlefield like a category 12 typhoon!
Sand and stones flew everywhere, and a layer of the ground was scraped off!
The golden Nine-Tails and Eight-Tails, bearing the brunt of the attack, simultaneously channeled their chakra into their limbs, pressing themselves firmly against the ground in an attempt to stabilize themselves!
"boom!!!"
The arm did not directly hit them, but only generated terrifying wind pressure and shockwaves when it was swung.
It crashed against the two tailed beasts like an invisible tsunami!
The golden nine-tailed and eight-tailed creatures simultaneously let out low growls.
Their massive bodies, faced with the sheer force of this shockwave, were pushed backward like small boats in a storm!
Four deep, bottomless furrows were plowed into the ground!
It wasn't until they were hundreds of meters away that they were able to barely offset the impact.
Inside the two tailed beasts, Naruto, Killer Bee, and Sasuke were all pale-faced and horrified.
This was just the aftershock of a casual swing! If you were actually hit head-on by that arm...
This ten-tailed creature is essentially a moving, self-aware natural disaster!
Its very existence is a negation of the entire world!
"No wonder...no wonder my mother-in-law and the others..."
As Naruto looked at the five Kage, who were exhausted but still standing strong in the distance, he felt an unprecedented respect for them.
It's a miracle that they've survived this long against such a monster!
"Watch out! The big one is coming!!"
Just then, Kurama's extremely solemn voice rang out in Naruto's mind like an alarm bell!
Almost instinctively, Naruto mixed the Nine-Tails' chakra with his own voice.
It roared out at maximum volume, echoing throughout the entire battlefield:
"Everyone!!! Take cover!!!"
His warning had barely left his lips when the Ten-Tails in the center of the battlefield made a new move!
It ignored the two "annoying" small tailed beasts in front of it.
Instead, it suddenly raised its bizarre head, facing the gloomy sky, and opened its enormous maw, which seemed capable of devouring everything!
“Aa ...
This roar was completely different from the previous ones!
It was no longer a simple sonic attack, but seemed to have triggered some kind of law of heaven and earth!
An indescribable, vast, and terrifying chakra, as boundless as a starry sea, erupted from the Ten-Tails' body and shot straight into the sky!
In an instant, the world lost its color, and the weather changed drastically!
Centered on the Ten-Tails, the sky within a radius of several kilometers twisted and spun violently, like water with a stone thrown in!
Dark clouds gathered from all directions at a speed visible to the naked eye, forming a huge, slowly rotating dark vortex!
At the center of the vortex, electric snakes danced wildly, thunder roared, and it seemed as if countless vengeful spirits were wailing within it!
The earth began to crack uncontrollably, not by force, but as if it were being torn apart and disintegrated from the inside by some invisible force!
The massive rock was forcibly ripped from the earth's crust, suspended in mid-air, and then crushed into dust in the raging energy turbulence!
That was no ordinary wind, but a storm hell containing the chakra of the Ten-Tails, like billions of invisible blades!
The hurricane howled, sweeping everything on the ground away.
Soil, gravel, broken trees, and even fragments of ninja tools left over from previous battles.
This created a series of devastating tornadoes that connected heaven and earth!
These tornadoes raged and moved erratically, shredding and swallowing everything in their path!
The dark vortex in the sky began to descend and attack!
Instead of rain, dense black spheres composed of highly condensed Yin Release chakra rained down like a meteor shower!
Each black sphere that lands triggers a violent explosion and corrosion, turning the ground into scorched earth filled with deathly energy!
At this moment, the area within several kilometers of the Ten-Tails' center was completely transformed into a forbidden zone for life, a hell of storms and destruction!
"Damn it! This area is too big!"
Naruto, controlling the golden Nine-Tails, wielded its enormous claws, protecting the Five Kage while constantly dodging black spheres falling from the sky and raging tornadoes.
The Nine-Tails' enormous size became a disadvantage at this moment, severely restricting its room to maneuver.
The Eight-Tails was in a similarly bad situation, utilizing the agility of its octopus tail and the speed of its lightning release.
They struggled to navigate through the gaps in the storm, but the situation remained fraught with danger.
The pressure on the Five Kage has increased even more!
They were already exhausted, and now, facing this indiscriminate power of heaven and earth, they could only do their best to defend and dodge.
Even with the Nine-Tails blocking most of the damage, the rest was still too much for them to handle.
"Earth Release: Gangli Style Technique!"
Onoki summoned a rock giant to protect himself, but the rock giant was quickly torn apart by a tornado.
"Lightning Release: Lightning Shadow Armor!"
Ai pushed his speed to the limit, weaving between lightning strikes and attacks from energy bodies.
However, the armor was still torn by several wind blades, leaving bloodstains.
"Sand Shield!"
