Chapter 411: Eight-Tails and Two-Tails Attack!
Chapter 411: Eight-Tails and Two-Tails Attack!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Numerous figures gathered, encircling the Konoha army camp from all sides.
The Konoha scouts and sentinels, strategically placed in the shadows, were now either corpses or had mysteriously vanished.
The Cloud Village Ninja army had arrived.
They positioned themselves a kilometer away from the camp, just outside the detection range of the Hyuga Branch Family's Byakugan.
This was why, despite having Hyuga ninjas among them, the Konoha forces were unaware of the encirclement until it was too late.
Fortunately, Hyuga Cangyue's Reincarnation Eye, enhanced by her fourth pregnancy, granted her a vision range even more formidable than the Noble Family's Byakugan.
With a range of up to five kilometers, she could effortlessly see through, magnify, and more within this radius.
Cangyue periodically activated her Reincarnation Eye, ensuring that even in the darkness of the forest at night, she could easily detect any anomalies.
However, by the time she noticed, it was already a bit late.
The encirclement was complete.
Two kilometers away from the camp's edge, at a specific location.
"Tadao, you're in command this time!"
Tadao's average height appeared diminutive next to the towering figure of the Lightning Shadow.
"Yes, Raikage-sama!"
Tadao nodded earnestly.
He understood the significance of this opportunity, even if it relied on the intelligence provided by a mysterious informant. With this information, they could easily crush the border forces and then surround the Konoha reinforcements.
As long as they achieved their goal, they didn't mind the assistance of others.
If they could defeat this reinforcement and reach Konoha, the other Great Ninja Villages would seize the opportunity and join the attack.
This time, Konoha wouldn't have the same luck as they did during the Shinobi World War, escaping unscathed.
Without Konoha, or even if they severely weakened them, the future of the Shinobi World would soon witness the rise of the Cloud Hidden Village.
It was no wonder that Tadao approached this moment with utmost seriousness.
"Kirabi, Yumon, you two will take the lead and transform into your Tailed Beast forms!"
The Lightning Shadow turned to the two ninjas beside him.
Kirabi and Yumon!
The Cloud Village's Jinchuriki of the Eight-Tails and Two-Tailed Beast.
And thanks to Turtle Island, they didn't have to worry about losing control like the other Jinchuriki from other villages when they transformed.
"OK!"
"Yes, Raikage-sama!"
The two Jinchuriki readily agreed.
"Let's show Konoha the wrath of the Cloud Village!"
Anticipation gleamed in the Lightning Shadow's eyes.
His previous defeat at the hands of Dong Ping had left a bitter taste, and now he finally had a chance to avenge that humiliation.
"Yes!"
The surrounding Cloud Village elites responded in unison, their morale soaring.
Whether it was for avenging their fallen comrades or the confidence gained from crushing the border forces, their spirits were on fire.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Kirabi and Yumon rushed through the cleared path toward the distant Konoha camp.
The other Cloud Village ninjas waited like a pack of wolves, ready to pounce on their prey at the first sign of chaos.
However, their approach was closely monitored.
"Two massive chakras are approaching, possibly Jinchuriki!"
Hyuga Cangyue whispered a warning.
Although she couldn't discern their appearances, she could gather information from their chakra signatures.
The sheer magnitude of their chakra was far beyond what a human should possess, indicating that they were indeed Jinchuriki.
And with two Jinchuriki, it was easy to deduce their identities.
Yumon, the Two-Tailed Beast, and Kirabi, the Eight-Tails!
Their solo attack had a clear objective: to create chaos.
Even with a numerical advantage, the Cloud Village ninjas didn't intend to rush in recklessly.
While they were known as 'Barbarians,' this was a strategic misdirection, as they often used this reputation to mislead their enemies.
If they were truly mindless brutes, the Cloud Village wouldn't have thrived and caught up with Konoha.
"Let's hope the others get lucky!"
Dong Ping took a bite of grilled meat.
From this point on, the Konoha forces could only pray for the best.
With a thousand against three thousand, and with the element of surprise against them, he had no idea how dire the situation would become.
The only good news was that the Heavenly Fortress had not been involved, so no matter the losses, he wouldn't feel too heartbroken.
Don't call him cold-blooded; it was just that his feelings for Konoha weren't that deep. At most, he enjoyed the entertainment and the prosperous environment.
Even if Nagato was holding up Konoha, he wouldn't be heartbroken. At most, he'd feel pained at the waste of good resources, what a pity!
Slurp!
As he swallowed the grilled meat, Dong Ping clapped his hands, and his aura began to change.
Knowing that a fierce battle was about to unfold, he'd have to be pretty stupid not to seize the opportunity to enter Sage Mode.
He didn't want to end up like those characters in movies and TV shows who wait until the last moment to use their ultimate techniques, only to be counter-attacked by their opponents.
If you have a powerful move, it's best to prepare it in advance.
Mountain Clan Houshi stood in front of Dong Ping, who was seriously condensing natural energy.
On the other side, at the Oilada Clan's camp, Oilada Jimi, who had been resting, had several insects crawl back onto his body. He silently stood up, and the clan members around him quietly followed suit.
Insect communication!
This was why they looked so eerie.
Meanwhile, less than a hundred meters away, in another tent.
Hiss!
Amidst the low, snake-like hisses, Red Bean instantly awoke.
After leaving the village, all ninjas would be on high alert.
Those who neglected this point would find their graves overgrown with grass.
"Red!"
Red Bean gently nudged Sunset Red, who was sleeping in her clothes beside her.
Both of them were in a state of readiness, even while sleeping.
"What's wrong?" Sunset Red asked as she quickly woke up.
"Something's not right!" Red Bean exclaimed.
Red Bean summoned the snake she had on guard, which was a warning sign. Although she didn't know the reason, she trusted it completely.
This snake was from the Dragon Den of the Three Great Holy Lands; it was no ordinary summoning beast and had saved her several times before.
Upon hearing this, Sunset Red didn't ask further questions. She immediately got up, quickly equipped her tools, and prepared for battle.
The entire preparation process took less than ten seconds.
This was the efficiency of a ninja.
And it wasn't just them; throughout the camp, others also began to sense something amiss.
But everyone quietly prepared without making a fuss or raising an alarm like a greenhorn.
Ninja! If they wanted to alert others, they had plenty of means to do so.
Secret techniques, ninjutsu, tools... none of these were issues.
Initially, they thought the Cloud Village had sent a raiding party to harass them before leaving, and they were ready to counter-attack.
But they never expected what was coming.
The Cloud Village hadn't sent a raiding party; they had dispatched their main army.
The previous division into three groups and other actions were all just a ruse to lull them into a false sense of security.
The scouts sent by Root Division had been taken care of by the 'helpers' from the Cloud Village, rendering the entire Leaf Village army blind and deaf, allowing the Cloud Village forces to get so close without being detected.
If they hadn't received any information for an extended period, they would have been more cautious. But it had only been half a day, so how could they have reacted so quickly?
It could only be said that the Cloud Village had gone to great lengths to ensure victory in this battle.
Now, it was time to reap the rewards.
Just then—
"Yo, I'm Killer Bee, the Infinite Shining!"
"Shut up!"
Two voices, one after the other, echoed in the northern sky above the camp.
Then, a massive creature with a broken horn, a bull's head, and an octopus body appeared in the air at the camp's edge.
Boom!!!
The mere act of landing caused a terrifying commotion akin to a mountain collapsing.
The creature, standing several dozen meters tall with nearly a hundred octopus tentacles, was a natural disaster with every move.
The Eight-Tailed Ox-Demon, makes its entrance!
The various traps and defenses at the camp's front were utterly useless against this colossal beast, easily destroyed by its residual waves.
But that's not all!
Beside the Ox-Demon, there appeared a giant cat demon covered in blue chakra flames and possessing two tails.
In terms of size, it might be slightly smaller, but its agility and speed far surpassed that of the Ox-Demon.
The Two-Tailed Cat Demon, makes its entrance!
With the appearance of two Tailed Beasts, the camp's outskirts were already in ruins before they even made a move.
After transforming, both the Eight-Tails and the Two-Tails wasted no time and immediately unleashed their ultimate techniques.
