Naruto: Scourge of the Ninja World

What happens when you run into a hungry bear deep in the forest? You get eaten...

Right now, Gekko Chizan was facing that exact situation. The drooling brown bear had already pounced at him!!!

"Chōmei!"

"Don't rush me! I'm almost done!"

Chōmei was panicking too—he could already see that bear's wide-open mouth. If he didn't hurry, he might just lose his best buddy.

Just thinking that he'd never get to see another good show again made Chōmei go crazy!

Chakra surged recklessly into Gekko Chizan's body.

"ROAR!" (Dinner time!)

The brown bear almost burst out laughing, opening its bloody maw to bite down on the prey before it.

But in the very next second, a hand glowing with red energy pressed against its chest.

"Made it in time!"

"Chizan! Partial Tailed Beast Transformation! You have to hang on! Don't let my chakra overwhelm you and make you lose yourself!"

Chōmei's voice was serious—he was genuinely worried Chizan would lose control.

If that happened, it'd be all over.

"This feels amazing! So this is your chakra, Chōmei?"

"It's incredible! I feel like I could take on a thousand Kakashis right now!"

Gekko Chizan was completely enveloped in tailed beast chakra, which swirled around his body to form the chakra cloak.

"Keep going!"

"Partial Tailed Beast Transformation? No problem at all!"

Hearing Chizan's bold and confident voice, Chōmei finally relaxed a little and kept increasing the chakra flow.

The bear being pinned down suddenly felt that the prey in front of it—no, it wasn't prey anymore.

It was a terrifying creature radiating pure death.

It was scared—its massive frame began to tremble.

"Chōmei, watch closely—Partial Tailed Beast Transformation?"

"A piece of cake for me!"

At that moment, Gekko Chizan finally understood the true terror of a tailed beast. Just the sheer amount of chakra alone was enough to drive him mad.

His skin began to crack. Where it flaked away, glowing red flesh surged forth.

Under the terrified gaze of the brown bear, his prey morphed from a humanoid shape into a blood-red monster.

"ROAR!"

With a furious roar, the monster began to shift again.

One tail...

Two tails...

Three tails...

Four tails...

"Chizan, that's enough! First time doing Partial Tailed Beast Transformation—four tails is plenty!"

Chōmei watched as Chizan excitedly shouted and flailed around. He was terrified this brat would lose his mind, so he quickly cut off the chakra flow.

Four tails of chakra were already plenty terrifying.

Fsshh...

Thin wisps of black smoke began rising from the brown bear's head.

That was the heat from Chizan's transformed body setting the bear's fur ablaze.

"Aaaargh..."

The brown bear cried out in pain.

In the next instant, it found itself flying through the air at terrifying speed.

"You wanna eat me? Try again in your next life!"

"ROAR!"

With another furious roar,

Gekko Chizan was ecstatic. With this kind of cheat mode, he wasn't even afraid of losing control after Tailed Beast Transformation. Being a perfect jinchūriki wasn't just for show.

Once his tailed beast progress bar hit 100%, he might even be able to test out a Tailed Beast Bomb in Partial Transformation mode.

"Chizan! That's enough! The drug's been purged from your system."

"Undo the transformation—you're still inside the village!"

"If someone sees you, we're done for!"

Chōmei was completely on edge now. If they got spotted and locked up again, he wouldn't be able to enjoy his favorite dramas.

"Okay, okay! I'm undoing it now!"

Of course Gekko Chizan knew they were still inside the village, so he didn't dare take things too far.

He silently cut the chakra connection with Chōmei.

The crimson chakra cloak dispersed, and Gekko Chizan reappeared in the middle of the Forest of Death.

The spot where he'd been standing was now a wide clearing.

"Tch. Caused way too much damage—let's scram. If we get caught, we're toast."

Even for his first Tailed Beast Transformation, Gekko Chizan couldn't suppress the overwhelming rush of chakra.

He ended up causing a lot of destruction to the surroundings.

But thanks to triggering the transformation, the drug had been completely purged from his system, and his body was in excellent shape.

He activated Flying Thunder God, and the scene before him shifted again. The massive village came into view—yes, he was now standing atop the Hokage Rock.

"Chōmei, I don't think we can stay in the village much longer. If we do, those guys will definitely chase me down with swords once they're out of the hospital."

"Where should we go to lay low?"

Gekko Chizan sat cross-legged, already pondering where to find some peace and quiet. Once Fugaku and Minato got out of the hospital, they'd definitely come after him.

Not to mention Kushina and Mikoto.

"Wait—I remember that old geezer the Third mentioned something about Iwagakure's jinchūriki entering the Land of Grass."

"That was Kokuō, right? Chōmei, should we go check out the Land of Grass?"

A grin tugged at the corners of Gekko Chizan's lips. Whenever he smiled like that, it meant trouble was brewing.

"Kokuō? That horned guy? Sure, why not."

"If you can't beat him, you can still run. Hey, that smile—don't tell me you're scheming something."

Chōmei knew Gekko Chizan too well by now. This brat didn't smile often, but when he did, it meant he was up to no good.

"Can't say. Can't say. First, we need to borrow something from my sensei. If it works out..."

"Maybe we can make Kokuō and Son Gokū fight each other. Hehehehehe..."

That got Chōmei interested. He was addicted to drama now, and just imagining Kokuō and Son Gokū duking it out made him giddy with excitement.

Time to act. Gekko Chizan activated the Flying Thunder God Technique again and arrived at Orochimaru's residence.

"Sensei, are you home?"

"Sensei??"

"What the hell! You couldn't have left at a worse time! Why did you go out now!!!"

Staring at the closed door, Gekko Chizan was immediately frustrated.

Why had he become Orochimaru's student? Wasn't it for all those amazing goodies the guy had?

And now he just happened to go out? What the hell?!

Placing his hand on the door, Gekko Chizan closed his eyes and sent chakra flowing inside to probe the place. Then he exploded.

"What the hell! So many security seals! Is this to guard against thieves or against me?!??"

"Damn it! So much for doing research together as sensei and student! Pah! All lies!"

Fuming, Gekko Chizan turned and stormed off. What else could he do?

He'd just sensed over 50 defensive barriers!

God knows how paranoid Orochimaru was that his beloved lab might get a surprise visit from his darling disciple the moment he left the village!

Orochimaru: Hehehe... Fifty? You wish. That was just the outer layer of the house. If you go further in, there are no fewer than 200 seals waiting for you!
