The Shadow of Konoha

Deep within the Wet Bone Forest, Mito stood in the middle of a towering forest while the others surrounded her from hundreds of meters away.

Everything is ready. Next, Uzumaki Mito is about to unlock the Eight Trigrams Seal and release the Nine-Tails.

Hanyu was also prepared to deal with the Nine-Tails. He displayed his signature and unique Lightning Release, and at the same time, he separated his hands, grasping the front and back ends of the huge Samehada "hilt" respectively, holding this exaggerated weapon horizontally in front of him.

However, Hanyu felt that his preparation might be a bit redundant. After all, with Mito and the Third Hokage present, he would only need to play a supporting role on the periphery in the next battle against the Nine-Tails. He was not the main output anyway - first of all, if the big guys were present, Hanyu would not need to be in the limelight; secondly, even if he wanted to be in the limelight, he could not do it in this kind of battle.

If the Nine-Tailed Fox was sensible, the first thing it should have done when released would have been to turn around and run away, even though it was impossible for it to escape.

Although the people present do not have the absolute suppressive power over the Nine-Tails like Hashirama Senju, with Mito around, they can be much worse.

Hanyu moved his knuckles slightly, then clenched the weapon in his hand again; the patriarch of the Uzumaki clan retreated to a farther and safer position, he was not the one who needed to enter the field to fight at the first moment; the Third Hokage began to make hand seals, he used the summoning technique to summon his summoning beast Monkey King Enma, and then the monkey used the transformation technique and turned into a long and thick stick.

Finally, Mito in the middle began to form seals, and then placed one of her palms on her abdomen.

In an instant, just like a violent tropical cyclone sweeping through the forest, Hanyu felt an irresistible energy full of evil and impact sweeping through his body. He could only step back involuntarily and support his body with his feet, only then was he able to resist this momentum.

He squinted his eyes, and saw an orange-red, towering "wall" suddenly appearing in front of him... A simple visual estimate showed that the main body of this thing was at least sixty meters long.

Nine-tailed Fox, Kurama, their angry roars lingered in the long-silent Wet Bone Forest.

Hanyu had come into contact with other tailed beasts before, but the "spirit" displayed by the Nine-Tailed Beasts was different, which means that it was the only one among the nine tailed beasts that was unique. When the Six Paths Sage divided the Ten-Tailed Beasts' chakra, he may have referred to the images of various creatures, but one thing is certain, he particularly favored fox spirits.

Although the slug is much larger than the Nine-Tailed Fox, the slug is just big. It does not have the chakra pressure that the Nine-Tailed Fox is currently displaying.

Even the Samehada in Hanyu's hand had been stimulated to the point of sticking out its tongue like a dog under the July sun.

For Mito, who was the Jinchūriki, such a large amount of chakra was suddenly drained away, and her vitality began to fade away... In fact, the countdown to her death had already begun from this moment, so when the Bagua Seal was lifted, even Mito would fall into a moment of weakness.

This is the time when the Nine-Tailed Fox is most likely to take advantage of you.

So the moment the Nine-Tails appeared, the Third Hokage rushed over there.

However, the Nine-Tails did not show any hostility towards the Jinchuriki who had sealed it for many years. It seemed as if it had more important things to do. Just as Hanyu was admiring the graceful figure of this vixen, this huge collection of chakra rushed straight towards him.

Kurama is the nine-tailed demon fox, and the nine-tailed demon fox is Ahri, but Kurama is not Ahri, so although he admired it, when the nine-tailed fox rushed towards him, Hanyu reacted immediately.

He did not feel any joy at being thrown into the arms of someone, but was only trembling with fear.

C, is the Nine-Tailed Fox such a vengeful creature? As the originator of this "division plan", was Hanyu remembered by it?

Or has Hanyu's title of "Tailed Beast Nemesis" spread like wildfire?

The Nine-Tailed Fox was huge in size, and the distance of several hundred meters between it and Hanyu was passed in an instant. In Hanyu's eyes, all this was like a volcano crashing towards him.

Hanyu was frightened for only a moment. After all, he had rich experience in fighting against tailed beasts, so he quickly calmed down. The long and narrow face of the Nine-Tailed Fox suddenly enlarged in his field of vision, and after it got close enough, it began to swing its forelimbs.

The fox's sharp claws easily cut the thousand-year-old trees in the Wet Bone Forest into pieces, and the next moment it was about to cut Hanyu in half.

But at this time, the seal in Hanyu's hand had been completed, and a shadow clone appeared above his original body. At the same time, the positions of Hanyu's original body and clone were exchanged.

Under the sharp claws of the Nine-Tailed Fox , Hanyu's clone was scratched and dissipated instantly. Even if it was his real body that was hit instead of his clone, the result would not be any different. He could not survive such an attack... Even under the Nine-Tailed Fox's simple "pure physical" attack, the ninja's body would be as fragile as paper.

"Fuck you, I just died once, do you think I'm easy to bully?"

This is true. Among the ninjas who came to the Wet Bone Forest, isn't Hanyu one who is easy to bully?

After the feeling of his clone being scratched to death was fed back to Hanyu's body, the feeling of being on the verge of death made him a little angry. He suddenly swung the huge "mace" with both hands in mid-air, and then slammed it hard on the side of Kyuubi's face.

"eighty!"

"Bang!"

The huge impact force caused the Nine-Tailed Fox's huge head to tilt to one side, but such an impact would never knock down the Nine-Tailed Fox's entire body. In fact, this blow just happened to make the Nine-Tailed Fox's resentful eye on one side turn towards Hanyu.

What are you looking at?

In mid-air, Hanyu's leaping figure continued to sink. He once again raised Samehada high above his head, ready to chop off Nine-Tails' forehead again.

But at this moment, there was a landslide and a tsunami. The forest on the right side of the Nine-Tailed Fox suddenly exploded, and a milky white "peak" suddenly surged up, and in an instant it was far higher than the Nine-Tailed Fox's body. Then it slammed into the Nine-Tailed Fox's flank and ribs like a huge wave hundreds of feet high.

The little fox was knocked to the ground in an instant, and it was somewhat familiar with the feeling of being suddenly slapped... Many years ago, a man driving a Gundam slapped it in the same way.

The owner of the Wet Bone Forest stretched out his "palm" and knocked the Nine-Tailed Fox down with one blow, then he "clenched his fist" and bound the Nine-Tailed Fox to the ground with his body.

So Hanyu didn't chop down with his second sword. He gently landed on Kyuubi's face, took a step forward, looked into Kyuubi's eyes and said, "Kyuubi, this is the Wet Bone Forest, and here, you are just a little fox."

For the first time in many years, the slug truly stretched its body, and then the earth, mountains, and even the sky began to deform.
