Chapter 222: The Bijuu Capture Plan Continues
Chapter 222: The Bijuu Capture Plan Continues
Tick, tock, tock.
Occasional droplets fell from above.
Led by Yuyi Xuan Yue, Yu Gao stepped into a hidden cave, his heart filled with anticipation and trepidation.
After traversing a long, pitch-black passage, he spotted a glimmer of light around the corner in the distance. He continued on, turned the bend, and looked up.
Instantly,
A powerful shockwave surged through his heart.
"What is that??"
Yu Gao stood frozen in place, stunned by the sight before him.
Looming over him was an enormous humanoid golem that dominated his entire field of vision.
Unlike the narrow confines of the cave before, the space Yu Gao now occupied was vast and open, large enough to accommodate most of the Tsuchigumo clan.
Even so, the presence of the Outer Path Golem made the area feel exceptionally cramped.
One could only imagine the shock Yu Gao felt as he beheld the Outer Path Golem, more menacing than the Bijuu, abruptly appearing before him.
Not only that, but for the first time, he also sensed the intense emotions of fear and unease emanating from the Six-Tails within him, its chakra leaking uncontrollably.
The Six-Tails had never reacted this way, not even when facing Yuyi Xuan Yue.
"To actually make the Six-Tails so disturbed,"
Yu Gao was about to forcibly suppress the Six-Tails' chakra that had surfaced.
Suddenly, a mocking voice rang out from above:
"This chakra signature... It's the Six-Tails? How curious. The Jinchuriki of the Six-Tails has come here of his own volition."
Yu Gao looked up hastily and noticed several people standing on the Outer Path Golem's fingers—some solid, some ethereal.
As for the speaker,
Yu Gao's gaze fell upon the crossed-out Mist ninja headband and the distinctive shark-like face, recognizing him instantly.
"Kisame Hoshigaki!"
Being from Kirigakure himself, Yu Gao quickly identified the famous S-rank missing-nin from his village.
Likewise, Kisame, once a ninja of the Mist, was familiar with the Six-Tails. He grinned widely and added,
"Looks like a lamb has walked right into the tiger's den."
"Do you need my assistance?"
Kakuzu, whose real body was present, asked nonchalantly from the side.
Hearing this, Yu Gao's expression turned grave as he looked at Kakuzu, then shifted his gaze to the others. Finally, his eyes fixed on the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, Han, who was floating in mid-air, his chakra being forcibly extracted.
"Black background with red clouds, missing-nin, and a Jinchuriki being drained of chakra mid-air—clearly, someone like me."
"Why did Yuyi Xuan Yue send me here?"
Yu Gao felt surrounded by a pack of wolves.
Most of the people on the Outer Path Golem's fingers wore expressions of indifference, mockery, and amusement, looking down at him as if they had discovered a new toy.
Once again, his status as a Jinchuriki of the Six-Tails held no weight.
In the eyes of these people, he and the Bijuu, a force that struck fear into the hearts of all in the ninja world, were nothing more than fish on a chopping block.
Yu Gao clenched the blowpipe in his hand, his guard up.
Tensions were rising, and the atmosphere grew tense.
On the Outer Path Golem's right thumb, Yuyi Xuan Yue's clone slowly opened his Rinnegan and turned to face Yu Gao,
"There's no need to be nervous. There are no enemies here."
Yu Gao's eyes widened in surprise as he looked at the clone.
'Yuyi Xuan Yue? Is this a shadow clone or something else? And what's with those eyes?'
The Yuyi Xuan Yue before him now, with eyes that had transformed into purple whirlpools, was vastly different from the one he had encountered earlier.
Having met Yuyi Xuan Yue not long ago and being well-acquainted with his demeanor and tone, Yu Gao was certain that this person was not an imposter but the real deal.
Amidst his nervousness, Yu Gao had too many questions swirling in his mind.
Fortunately, after Yuyi Xuan Yue spoke, Kisame and the others immediately abandoned their aggressive intentions, and their expressions turned more solemn.
With the sudden drop in pressure, Yu Gao could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Plop!
At that moment, the Five-Tails inside the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, Han, who was suspended in mid-air, had been completely extracted, and his motionless body fell heavily to the ground. With this, the Outer Path Golem's fourth eye was fully opened.
"Prepare to extract the Six-Tails," Yuyi Xuan Yue instructed.
"Yes," Kisame Hoshigaki, Kakuzu, Sasori, Deidara, Itachi Uchiha, and Kisame Hoshigaki all replied, their expressions turning serious.
Then, Yuyi Xuan Yue gestured for Yu Gao to step forward, not giving him time to ask questions. He explained, "It is common sense that a Jinchuriki will die after having their tailed beast extracted, but common sense can be changed."
The Eight-Tails was able to leave a part of itself in Killer B's body, allowing him to survive even after the Eight-Tails was extracted.
With Yuyi Xuan Yue's current understanding and control over chakra, he could do the same by retaining a small portion of the Six-Tails' chakra and using Yin-Yang Release to maintain Yu Gao's life force.
Even with the Six-Tails extracted, Yu Gao would still be able to live.
Yu Gao was a cold person, but his temperament was not bad.
After being saved by Ying, he knew that staying here would only endanger her, so despite his severe injuries, he insisted on leaving immediately. Later, after being knocked out by Yuyi Xuan Yue, his first thought upon waking up was Ying's safety. Despite the vast difference in their strengths, he still went to rescue her.
Additionally, he had already defected from Kirigakure.
Yuyi Xuan Yue had no grudge against him.
Although the Six-Tails still needed to be extracted, it was not difficult to save Yu Gao's life.
As for the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, Han, he was a member of Iwagakure, and saving him would be akin to aiding the enemy.
Yuyi Xuan Yue was not that narrow-minded.
"...After the Six-Tails is extracted, you can return to living a normal life," Yuyi Xuan Yue finally said to Yu Gao.
Yu Gao nodded heavily.
With Yuyi Xuan Yue's strength, if he wanted to obtain the Six-Tails, he wouldn't need to go through all these troubles.
Yu Gao naturally believed everything he said.
Yu Gao patted his stomach.
From start to finish, he had always hated his identity as a Jinchuriki.
If the Six-Tails were removed, and he could live a normal life, it would be the life he had always dreamed of.
Yu Gao walked up to the Outer Path Golem.
Once everything was ready, Yuyi Xuan Yue and the others once again performed hand seals with their ten fingers.
In an instant!
The Outer Path Golem opened its mouth wide, and Yu Gao's body was suspended in mid-air, just like the Five-Tails Jinchuriki before him. The chakra of the Six-Tails rampaged within him and poured uncontrollably into the Outer Path Golem.
Because Yu Gao actively cooperated,
This tailed beast extraction was much faster than the previous one.
In just half a day,
The Outer Path Golem's fourth eye was about to fully open.
Yuyi Xuan Yue appeared beside Yu Gao, waved his hand to intercept the last bit of the Six-Tails' chakra, injected it into Yu Gao's body, and then placed his right hand on Yu Gao's chest, channeling Yin-Yang Release.
Soon,
The extraction of the Six-Tails was complete, and the Outer Path Golem's fourth eye was fully opened.
The former Six-Tails Jinchuriki, Yu Gao, fell from the air but was still alive.
Everything had gone smoothly.
From this point on, Yuyi Xuan Yue's Outer Path Golem possessed four tailed beasts: Four-Tails, Five-Tails, Six-Tails, and Seven-Tails.
The Bijuu Capture Plan will continue!
